Kik Hair Fair One

  At first I wasn't in love with this hair because the textures seem really weird and blurry but the longer I tried on the demo the more I decided I needed it.  The thing I love most about it is the little star accessories sprinkled throughout it.  Who doesn't want to feel like a celestial being of some sort?

One More Skin Fair!

  I bought more skins than I have shown at Skin Fair but I am running low on time so let's see what we can get done.  For now though I would love to show you this skin from Random Matter.  It is a very unusual but still somehow natural skin.  It reminds me a bit of other much-loved designers of hand drawn skins, such as MiaSnow or FD.  I haven't much heard of Random Matter before this but I will definitely pay attention from now on.

  I added a bit different lipstick that I also got at Skin Fair.  The lipstick is from La Malvada Mujer and, even though the skin had a natural colored lip, I decided I like this more glossy "pout" as an addition.  It comes with TMP lipstick appliers too but I don't have one of those so I didn't test it out.   There are other colors in the pack, dark and light shades of pink.  I also added some eyebrows I made myself because...I don't know, I just liked them lol.  The skin itself comes with brow and no brow options.

Just Cuz

  So I spend most of my time in SL bald, AO-less, probably naked, because of the being a creator/hermit thing, as I have said before, so when I put an outfit on for no reason other than to feel cute I guess I should blog it.
  Most of these items aren't particularly new so I am sure you have seen the blogged a million time before.  I just love the colors, the shapes, the styles, and feel that considering how happy they make me I should show them, new or not!

  I left the photo completely unedited, no sharp angled rounded or pixeled line smudged, because I wanted to show you how it was pretty enough unedited, with my lower end graphics, that I still felt compelled to post.  Spring is here folks, and the colors are ready to pop!

I Got Bugged

  I am super behind on blogging.  Seriously.  Anyone else about...oh...a year behind? LOL.  Sorry SL but RL is busy.  Sad face.  One thing I wanted to make time in my SL to share is that A-Bomb has rebranded as Fission.  You have probably heard that by now but still I wanted to share because the creator is such a freaking awesome person and talented.  I love how there is always a sort of vintage and/or alternative vibe to her clothing even when it is something basic.  I am pretty much addicted to animal prints so I had to show this zebra dress. :D
  Oh, and hey, this dress is only 100L through tomorrow night so catch it while it's cheap. :P

  I am wearing this fur stole from Adore&Abhor's co-owner Airedine Poe.  The bow is color change so if you want to match a bunch of looks you can do it.  I am actually wearing a matching green lipstick from Pink Fuel but since I made the pic black and white you can't tell. :P  There are lots of fur colors available for purchase.
  More details below!

How Do You Afford Your Rock and Roll Lifestyle?

I was talking to someone on Plurk recently about how we are both sort of stuck in the 90's.  It's true, it really is.  I think, to an extent, people tend to have some sort of subconscious preference for a lot of things that were around when they were developing into an adult.  Like, my mom is really fashionable, totally with the times, but I can often see some hint of the 70s in what she likes.  With me, I find myself most excited about things that are from about 1994-2001 or so.  I remember wanting to be Gwen Stefani SO BAD when Tragic Kingdom came out.  I wore plaid pants and tank tops whenever I could for so long, haha.  Even well into high school I would bedazzle my bra straps so when they stuck out they were sparkly like hers were back then.  I totally should still do that. D:

Anyway, these plaid pants from Dilly Dolls reminded me of those times a lot.  I love how they have a curvier shape to them than most brands I have been seeing these days.  They also super pegged on the bottom so you can wear them under boots!  The sizes run a bit weird, like I usually have to wear a small or medium in pants but I wore an extra small with these.  Comes with all sizes though, so woo!  My sweater is the weekly special from Sn@tch and in several collar/cuff texture choices.  Currently 75L per size.  More info. below!
Worn:
Pants: Dilly Dolls (160L right now for the full pack of ten colors of the plaid.  Other style packs available.)

Lipstick: Adore&Abhor, not yet released

Happy Vamps

It has been getting really dark, really early these and I have been thinking that if I was a vampire I would be super happy.  The days are short, the nights are long, they don't have to worry about freezing to death...yeah, it would be good to be a vampire way up north.  Anyway, because of that I decided to do a winter vampire look.  I am wearing the skimpy little fur one-piece outfit from Sakide for Around the World.  A vampire doesn't have to worry about staying warm so could totally rock this skin-baring look, hehe.  The outfit comes with a long-sleeved undershirt and boots as well!  My skin is a gacha item from Essences that you can get at The Deck right now for 150L a pop.  It's very realistic!  It comes with dark brows on it but I used the La Petite Morte eyebrow remover layer on top of it.  I used a set of alpha and prim vampire teeth from A Netherworld on that marketplace for only 75L and some under-eye shadow from my my store to finish the vampire feel.

My hair is from Alice Project for Around the World.  She has NINE new styles out for it.  I am not even joking.  I think the owner needs a nap.  The store is in like all the events ever, haha!  This style is called Yuri and can be used with any of the Alice Project Nova Collection dye huds to get the color you want.
Thanks for reading!

Super Casual and Conservative

I have been feeling the casual vibe lately.  I know any minute I'll be back to my unusual preferences but for the moment it's all about neutrals and soft colors.  I was hanging out with my friend Dahl and she was like WTF...you look so professional/casual I am frightened.  That means I did good!

Now, about the clothes!  My pants are from L'Aph, a newish store that sells mesh awesomeness.  Lots of sizes included and also there are three cuff style options.  My sweater is from Sn@tch and comes in multiple colors, all transferable.  More info. on items below!

And Now For Something Totally Different

I've been blogging lots of light things lately so it's time for some dark colors in the mix.  I got this outfit from Adoness for Vintage Fair and I normally am not a Steampunk-Victorian-Etc. type of girl but I really like this.  First off, I love green.  Green is my fave color so anything that has it is likely to make me take a second look.  I tried it on and noticed that the collar is freaking awesome.  I love the little clock and cog details.  The outfit comes with a monocle (I'm wearing it) and a top hat (not worn.)  For information's sake, the outfit has a flexi skirt as the main part, the corset and top are on different layers, and there is a cute little pocket watch type chain detail on the side of the skirt.  The price is 280L and it is currently a Vintage Fair exclusive.

My hair is new from Vaughan's for Fashion Voodoo.  There are four colors available at only 93L each or 279L for all four.  It comes with the side-shaved hair base, which is super cute and I have even used it with some other hair too.  I liked the red color best of all and since I am a sucker for red hair + earth toned clothing it had to be worn. :D

Flowery

I have a few new things and some not so new things that I put together today for just a fun LOTD.  My dress is not new but it's something that Draconic Kiss released a few months ago that I fell in love with, meant to blog, lost in my inventory, found in my inventory, got too busy in SL and RL to blog, forgot about it, then found again.  *Runs out of breath*  So anyway, it's about time I posted it!  I am wearing the option with the purple belt and flowers because I thought it was cool how well it matched the purple option of the new Dilly Dolls shoes.

 Speaking of Dilly Dolls, check out these shoes up close below.  There are color change with a bunch of bright colors to choose from and you can change the color of the buckle independently.  These are available at Vintage Fair for now and there is another pair with skulls on it there too you might want to check out.

My hair is also from Vintage Fair, this time by one of my fave stores, Alice Project.  Each hair style comes with a mini-pack of colors but if you are a VIP group member (250L join fee) there is a special VID hud with some fun color combos in it too. (not to mention the fact there is a special VIP only MM board prize and also Alice gives out gifts sometimes too :3)  Alice has several styles at the fair, this being just one of my faves.

Drunk Butterfly

I took this picture for a lipstick ad but I loved this hair and these eyes too much not to blog them.  There isn't anything about drunks or butterflies so if that's what you came here for, I apologize.  This hair is from Action and is one of *two* group gifts currently in the store.  It's a VIP group, so there is a fee, but the gifts are regular and AWESOME and you sometimes get deals on regular product as well.  My eyes are one of several in a hunt gift from Skin Within.  I love this store's eyes and I hope she starts making things regularly again.

Grabbed

All content creators in SL have had to watch over their shoulders all the time to make sure their content isn't being stolen.  This is, unfortunately, useless.  People can steal easily and they do it often.  My items have been stolen and I am not even a big shop at all.  It doesn't affect me much other than making me cry and feel bad and want to quit.  For others, who make their RL incomes in SL, it can be devastating.  Most often stores are able to keep going even with the stolen items circulating because people want to support the original creator.  With the current case of Curio vs. Hush skins that isn't the case.  Hush has gone so far as to file a false copyright and get Gala's skins removed completely from the grid, giving her no chance to try and keep going.  It's appalling but it's happened before.  Because SL is all over the world, when this sort of thing happens people can't afford to fight in other countries.  This time we as a community will help the fight.

The One Voice fundraiser is here to help Gala Phoenix go to Canada and fight these false claims in court.  This international fight could set a new precedent and is extremely important to any content creator in SL and any other virtual world.  Whether you agree with Gala or not it's something you'll want to follow.  I am very tired and can't speak well on the subject but my pal Eden at Free*Style has explained things pretty well HERE with links to other information on the subject as well.  The fundraiser has some amazing items at great prices with 50%-100% of each item being donated to Gala Phoenix to help her fight this thief.  I hope you'll check it out, even if it's just to grab pretty things.
Worn:
Dress: League @ One Voice, multiple wear options
Hair: Exile @ One Voice, multiple colors included
Corset: Dilly Dolls, new release, color change SO AWESOME!  There are a bazillion options and the mesh is lovely.  Another color is available as a VIP group gift with a join fee.
Skin and Lipstick: Adore&Abhor, lipstick is a group gift in the VIP notices (50L join fee but more gifts coming soon!)
Eyebrow Remover and Eyebrows, Miss Shippe's Studio, the eyebrow remover is included in the pack of eyebrows but you can also get an eyebrow remover for 20L I think it is on its own.
Mesh Eyes: Dilly Dolls, you can change each eye color individually, so cool

Hairy and Red

I got this new mesh hair from Analog Dog and I had to blog it right away.  It's just too good not to show off!  When a lot of people think of Analog Dog they think of 2007 giant flexi permanently full bright shiny hair, when in fact it has changed quite a lot in that time.  They have just started doing mesh but I am already floored by the quality.  Not only is the hair mesh (something I have come to think of as a positive for most brands, though some brands don't fit my big, weird head yet) but it also has a separate attachment with flexi parts to give it a bit of movement.  Super cool!

My mesh crop top is from Schadenfreude and I just love this retro style.  This top comes in the "standard sizing" fits from XXS-L.  My skin is my new go-to from MiaSnow.  I don't want to take it off ever, don't make me!!!! *Cries*

Puking Rainbows on Alice

  Ever wonder why no one has ever found a mermaid even with all the reported sightings?  Because no one bothers to look when no one believes a pirate covered in rainbow vomit, that's why.

  You can get this awesome rainbow spewer from Weather or Not and this mermaid ensemble from Quaratine, both at the current Zombie Popcorn carnival.  You can wear the face paint from the WoN set by itself but you'll need a friend (or enemy?) if you want the rainbow puking action, since it takes two people to work.  The mesh mermaid tail from Quarantine only comes in one size so keep that in mind. 

   I know my pictures aren't that great this time but I had way too much fun taking these pics that I wasn't paying close enough attention to notice the flaws until after they were done.  Just trust me that everything is nice! xD
Worn:
Rainbow Spewer Set: !Weather or Not? @ Zombie Popcorn

Additional Notes:
-The person with me in the pirate outfit is Alice Demonia.  I have no clue what she is wearing.
-There are some extra rainbow-y effects I added in the first photo post-process and I found them on Pixlr.

Sheer

Oh Culture Shock, you are so awesome.  I am super lucky because my store is in Culture Shock so I got to go early and swoon over all of the lovely things without lag.  One of the things I swooned over the most was this set from Solidea Folies.  There are several color options available but black and white is my fave with just about everything in fashion, this set included.  The dress is mesh and comes with an attachment of the "eyeball-like" things that are attached to the mask but I didn't wear them because I just wanted a more simple feel.  I wore a bigger size in the mesh than I normally would because I like the way it looks floating away from the body with the sheer "fabric."

I love masks in general and I just adore this one especially.  I have a hard time getting really super excited about things in SL lately but this got me all super duper happy.  There is an all black version I loved too that is in the same shade of black as the circles on the dress.  I realized the circles on the dress were the same shade of matte black as this collar from Hate Me and Eat Me so I added it to the look.  I love the old-fashioned appeal of it.  My lipstick is also from Hate Me and Eat Me but since it's under the mask you can't see it very well.  It's nice though, I promise. :P

My hair is from Tuty's and I don't think it's a new release but I am not in the group so I don't know.  I just check out their Marketplace store every once in a while for things I don't have, haha.  I love how natural the hair base looks.  My skin and under eye liner are from Adore&Abhor at Culture Shock but since it's my own store I won't say too much about it. :P  I'm wearing 2 different eyes and they were both dollarbies from Marketplace.  Yay Marketplace!  The brush I used for the background was a RL freebie from InSight Designs.  Yay RL freebies!

Quick!

I am running late getting this eyeliner dollarbie out for the Flux party but I tried on this jewelry from Dark Mouse at the Festival of Sin and I instantly died of joy, was reincarnated from the majestic powers of the necklace, and then decided to take a picture.  So, here you have it!  One of my fave jewelry sets in a long time.  Enjoy!
