Ocean Born

Mesmerised by an ocean dream,
Eternal life, alone and free.
Rolling waves, sea pure and clear,
Maybe I've found shelter from the storm.
A cave that glistens, a loving aura.
I no longer need my troubles,
Driven to the dream I've always dreamed,
Swimming with the mermaids of the open seas.

Lovin' Love

Left to Right

Love: Blush(Gacha), Love: Hustle(Hair Fair Gift), Love: Forget Me Not(Hair Fair Gift)

The great thing about hair fair, is no matter how long you have been in sl, there is always some new to you store that pops up. It's like a magical journey, with new treasures to discover at every turn.

This year my new find was the store Love. It's a relatively new store, but they already have some impressive events they have participated in on their belt.

When doing the gift roundup, Love hadn't had their gift out yet, so I decided to do this little feature, to let you know about their Hair Fair gift. There is 3 separate hairs in the pack, each with it's own hud, so you can sort of test some of what the store has to offer, texture wise. I am only showing 2 of the styles, the 3rd didn't really suit my avatar very well, I have a super huge head, so I find sometimes styles that are rigged closer to the scalp just does not work well for me.

Love has 3 charity hairs at Hair Fair too, I this the one with the mini buns is super cute.

I also checked out the mainstore, which is undergoing some changes right now. In the front of the shop you will find a few gachas. The Blush hairstyle is from one of those. I LOVE big hair, so was really happy to see this style. I know I am going to come up with all sorts of interesting outfits for it.

You can visit the Love Hair Fair Booth HERE and the Love Mainstore HERE.

Analog Dog has a fatpack of hair as a group gift for the Hair SL group, near their gachas. I am not sure for how long. Join the group (The sign is right beside the fatpack), then while wearing the tag, hit the fatpack button. It was a little tricky for me to get it to work, I think mostly due to how busy it was on the sim, and the way SL was working for me today. I ended up left clicking it and then pressing touch in the pie menu.

AAAAAAAAAH!!!! Sunlight!!!!

"But it's the sun, I'm not suppose to be in the sun!" 

"Well, I'm a fairy, I want to be in the sun."

"You can shove it, I'm leaving to find some shadows to haunt."

My little ghosty was not impressed. I'm not here to impress tho, never have been, so I let him go about his way. If you want an angry little ghost of your own, Plastik has given one out as a group gift right now. You can get a more happy one at The Liaison Collaborative's current round, if you feel the need for a matching set. They are actually holdables, set to your right arm, it just didn't work with my pose, so I set him out as a follower pet by re-positioning him.

If you like them, there is matching jewerly for sale, also at The Liaison Collaborative, aptly names Booh, which I am also wearing.

[EvelineintheBox] has this dress out right now, in 3 variations. The one I am wearing was a one day sale version, which I sadly did not get up in time, but the good news for you, is the 3 versions currently out are at even more of a discount than this one is! For today and all of tomorrow they are up at the store for only L$25.

Did a closeup shot, cause it is always hard to see things in the artsy ones.

Real Life, that thing that takes many SL users away. That is where I have had to play for the last week. It felt good to be able to finally do something ingame for a change.

This dress was my inspiration today, a little promotional gift by VN Creations. The store shares space with another store, so while there getting this, check out the other few gifts littered about. The store items are also priced reasonably, so if you are on a budget, this is the place for you!

Witchery

I seem to be on a witch kick!

Fantasy Cream was extended a week, and will be wrapping up soon. There is a little hunt, with each designer offering up a goodie, as well as exclusive designs set out from each merchant. 

The Pumpkin Latern is a hunt gift from Fantavatar & Moonstruck. The dress is a wonderful exclusive creation from BlueMoon Enterprise, and while it might not be free, it is so unique, I had to show it to you. if you peak inside of the dress, there is a whole scene, there is even a little moon! The Pumpkin Bench in the background is another exclusive, from Lilith's Den. They have a cute little gift in the hunt too, which is not show here, but I got the ad so you can see it.

I figured since I was being all artsy, I would take a pic of my face, so you could see the other freebies a bit better.

The Shedding Hair hunt by Adoness is still going strong, ending on the 31st of the month. 24 hairs in 12 combs to find.

Modish decided to spoil us with a gift. It had been a while, but was well worth the wait. There are 2 skins in the group gift, I am wearing tone 5 here in this shot.

Office Glam

I sort of feel like that alternative girl, that was forced to wear office clothing. I woke up one morning, said screw it, and threw this outfit together. Bet I get the boss eating out of my hand by noon! HA!

The Wash Cart Sale ends today, so come on by and pick up what you can, while you can. Lots of great L$10 goodies. Sometimes the designers are a bit late picking things up, so if you don't see this post until tomorrow, it is worth it to check, just in case.

Something a little different for you today.

[Teri]otrope has some demos in there store, which are totally wearable. They are more like samples, allowing you to see everything unencumbered.

There isn't always a wearable demo for every product, some are just the standard sort of demo. To tip you off better as to what is a sample and what is not, the samples then to have a picture and are sized smaller that the normal vendors.

I hope you find something that you like!

Blue Fancy

Adoness is offering 3 styles at hair fair this year, named after various figures in Norse Mythology. Today I am wearing Frigg in Waterspout. A portion of the sale of this hair goes to the Hair Fair Charity of Choice, which is Wigs for Kids this year.

I am also showing you this nifty butterfly bracelet from !Musa!. It is at the current round of Cosmopolitan Sales. It isn't free, but beautiful, and is what inspired this whole post. There is a matching ring available as well. There is an extensive hud included, which allows for a vast range of ways to wear this piece.
