Hair Fair - It's Bandana Day

Today is the final day of Hair Fair 2014, and the past two weeks have flown by so quickly. I have done over 25 individual posts featuring just some of the amazing hair from this year's Fair. So much wonderful hair, so many amazing gifts and dollarbies, and so much good done for the Fair's charity of choice Wigs for Kids. As is tradition, the final day of the fair is dedicated to Bandana Day. 

Today is the day to flip your wig, literally, and wear one of the dozens of Bandanas sold at Hair Fair 2014 for just a small $50L donation, a donation that gives 100% of it's price directly to the Wigs for Kids charity. Wear a bandana, or two, or 16 as I have, to show you care about the cause.  Wigs for Kids works hard to give deserving kids a wig that allows them to live their lives and feel like every other child does, normal. Children endure hair loss for many of the same reasons adults do, be it from a medical treatment, from a health condition like Alopecia, or from a trauma such as a burn. Unlike adults, many cannot understand their loss, and are often stigmatized among their peers to a great degree.  Pick up one of the many lovely Bandanas at the final day of Hair Fair 2014 and show you support the fight to return a sense of normalcy to the life of a child who just wants to be care-free and live their life. It is a small gesture, but it means so very much.

Hair Fair - Irresistable Bargain Hunting

With 'Safari Chic' all the rage, and only so many hours in my day, I decided to combine my love for fashion and my passion for bargain hunting and go on a good, old fashioned, Bargain Hunt. You know the kind I mean. A new place, new shops to sample, and cute little items that are super cheap. The destination of the day was the Okinawa Summer Festival. Full of great Gacha Machines, some with goodies priced at only $10L, I stocked up on lots of great new accessories.

My bargain hunting look came together as I pulled on one of my favorite new wigs from ::Tabou Irresistible:: at Hair Fair 2014, the Merida, in this awesome bold Blood Red. It is so sexy, and svelte, and the fact that the long bangs cover half my face makes it a little bit mysterious too. Then I grabbed up this brilliant ...Mutresse... Ebele Romper, with it's HUD customizable textures for every separate part of the outfit, it is endlessly wonderful in solids or prints. This round of COLLABOR88 is absolutely wonderful, and I want to live in these threads. Check out the shoes, the Hamstead Sandal from ::HH:: Hucci is so sexy, I may go back for more colors, the price is so beyond reasonable. Get your own hunt on today!

Hair Fair - Daisies and Diamonds

One of my favorite things about Hair Fair, is the discovery of really lovey wigs, and lovely hair bases to go with them. Because they can be worn separately, you can really customize your looks by wearing a hair base from one creator and a wig from another. It allows for endless personalization, which, lets face it, is hard to accomplish in Second Life when so many avatars wear very popular skins and mesh heads. This lovely weighted curl Diamond style from ISON is new and available Exclusively right now at Hair Fair 2014. The delicate baby haired hair base is from ICONIC, and just worked so well with this style, I opted to keep it on. It is also available at the Hair Fair 2014, with a style called The Icon, blogged HERE. I was feeling very girly, so pulled together a great look to wear with my new Floral Skirt 2 by [MotiAme], available at the new round of The KUSTOM 9. So from Diamonds to Daisies, my personal style will always come out on top!

Hair Fair - Jelly Dots & Popsicles

There is something about hair from tram that just makes me feel girly and sweet. This new D523 style is another cloyingly sweet addition to my collection, available now Exclusively at Hair Fair 2014. It has a lovely wee braided crown and cute fringed bangs. It made me feel like throwing together an equally sweet look, including some of the great Gacha items at the current round of The Chapter Four, and a precious necklace from The Secret Affair. A great pair of jeans is always a wonderful thing, and this pair from DRIFT at The Dressing Room FUSION has a HUD with 5 different denim dye washes to choose from, it's five pairs of jeans in one for less than $100L! Better snap up these items fast, time is limited with most of the event items at a sale price. Adding some sweet and colorful dots by Ama. to my manicure it the icing on my little sweet cake.

Hair Fair - Hot Summer Nights

When the air gets humid on a hot summer night, I have to fight the frizz. It's an East Coast summer problem, a never ending battle. But what if those of us with all that naturally tamed curl just let it go wild. I think it would look a lot like this amazing new Hair Fair 2014 Exclusive from ICONIC. The Icon is the ultimate in huge and curly love, the hair base has those lovely little baby hairs we all lust after, and the flexi-curls move with bounce and flow. I am just so in love with this style I can't say enough good things about it. It combines all the best things about modern hair in Second Life. It hair a lovely tattoo layer base, a HUD for selecting from heaps of brilliant textures, a mesh base with all these layers of amazing flexi spiral curls. It made me think of the 70s with fondness, and that is where the rest of the look comes in. 

Back at Project Limited, I picked up these exclusive limited edition bits of heaven, a Romper from DeeTaleZ and these sweet platform Saddle Shoes from *REIGN.. Both are limited in number being sold to 200, but other colors are available, so better hurry your buns to grab them up soon.

Hair Fair - Ophelia In Exile

Do you ever feel like a Princess living in Exile? For me, it's pretty much an all the time thing. Where is my castle, where is my entourage? Well, at least I can dress like a princess in Second Life, even a mythical princess from the Kingdom of Ketsugo. It's easy peasy with stunning fantasy wear, like that on offer at The Secret Affair, which opens tomorrow. This time there is a Mid-Summer Night's Masquerade theme that I am totally crunching on, and when I got a peek at the super awesome Gacha machine from Luas, I just had to take a spin. The Ophelia skirts are all common items, and come in a lush palette with almost a dozen options, just play for your size and see what color you get. On the first try I got this Emerald tone, and when I opted for a second try, just to see what else I could add to my wardrobe, I managed to luck out and get the RARE Ophelia full armor set, including all the pieces worn on the upper body. How awesome is this set? Very!

I managed to work in the lovely little [MONS] Septum Ring I purchased at Project Limited, which is a limited edition item, which makes me feel pretty exotic. Now back to the Exile, this Stone Cold Seduction style is available now and Exclusively at Hair Fair 2014. It is the perfect style for the Role Play lovers, who also want a style that is hella sexy for everyday. So many events, so few minion to do my bidding - er - shopping. What is a princess to do?

Hair Fair - Can You Keep A Secret?

I can keep a secret, most of the time. Like when my sisters told me they were expecting, I was sure to get them to my favorite Obstetrician that I work with, and told them it was "not my news to share". So points for me for keeping secrets. But some secrets are too good to keep, like the new round of The Secret Affair that opens tomorrow, July 15th. Or, this great new /Wasabi Pills/ Midori style, available now Exclusively at the Hair Fair 2014. The hair is stunningly sweet, with a braid right up front and off center, simply lovely.  But back to The Secret Affair, where you can grab up this lovely little ruffled lace bit of a mesh fantasy dress from !gO!, I opted for the Sky blue color, but it was a close call, the half dozen options are all absolute stunners. So much goodness coming your way at both Hair Fair 2014 and The Secret Affair, sorry ladies, but I had to let the secret out!
