Schadenfreude Is Good For You!
I fell in love with the Schadenfreude dress for Collabor88. It’s adorable and the lace-up back is even more so, though you can see that in Zas’ first post highlighting the backs of several outfits.
The Color Purple – by Miamai
I am a tremendous fan of hair attachments with tattoo layer hair bases, when done well. They’re tremendously versatile and generally are fantastic up-dos which is why I wasn’t surprised that a creator who does so much formal and evening, as well as are couture, did such great up-dos as hair attachments for Hair Fair 2012.

Long Hair at Hair Fair 2012
There’s a lot of long hair at Hair Fair 2012. Here is some of it – not nearly all of it. None of the photos have been edited, other than adding the name of the hair at the top.

Hey, that’s me!
The other day Inex Hax asked for same suggestions for this elegant houndstooth dress she was about to release for Peqe. I suggested Baskerville and then, for some reason, did not see follow-up replies because Plurk was being glitchy. So, when I logged in and saw an object from her named Cajsa, I assumed that she had labeled it for delivery. Until I opened it and saw that the box was called Cajsa because the dress was called Cajsa and that was when my eyes popped and I said, “Hey, that’s me!” Like anyone, I am thrilled to have a design named after me, especially when my name confounds so many people. Even better, though, when the dress is so very much “my style” like this dress. You all know I have a deep, abiding love for sheath dresses and pencil skirts, prints and elegant designs that pull from the past but look to the future. This is all that in one.
Tickled Pink
I love pink hair!
Sometime in my freshman year of high school, I decided I wanted pink hair. I thought it would look pretty good with my combat boots. Being a dark brunette, though, I never got the courage to fully bleach my hair so the pink could actually show up. To this day, I still wish I could do it; the closest I ever came was pink streaks a few years ago. And though my high school dreams were of hot pink hair, these days I wish I could do a lovely pastel. Sigh.
But hey. Isn’t it great we have Second Life, where we can have any hair color we want without all the bleach damage?
With that in mind, I want to share a few of my favorite pink shades in SL.
Two Little Girls In Braids 2.0
There are two ladies that write for this blog who spent their childhoods with their long hair braided and wrapped around their heads. Their mothers would wrap their hair so tightly, that it would stay in place days if it needed to. I was one of those girls. I will give you a hint, the other one is a red head. Continue reading
Moving the Velvet
One of Second Life’s oldest indie music clubs, The Velvet, moved this week and there’s a huge party this weekend to celebrate and raise funds to pay for that transition and keep the club going. There will be music from 9 AM to 11 PM Saturday and Sunday and all the tips will go to the club. The Velvet has been playing great indie music for over five years and hope to keep going strong under the ownership of Maht Wuyts who has managed the club for the last year. The new location is here. I will be DJ’ing early Sunday morning – at 9 a.m. – a strange hour, I know, but then I DJ’ed at 6 AM for SL9B, so this is certainly better timing than that. If you can’t make my set, I hope you can make another – the music at The Velvet is always a great mix so you are sure to enjoy it.
Hair Fair 2012 Braids and Ponies
There’s a lovely variety of braids and pony tails at Hair Fair this year, though it feels like fewer than past years, or perhaps my computer is crashing less while I shoot. I did have to reduce my head size to fit the pony from LaViere, but it’s such a beautiful pony tail it was well worth it. I put the saved shape for that head in the LaViere folder to have it handy in the future. The retro chic Magdalen from Lelutka doubles as an updo when you remove the pony piece. The fabulous adornments in the Exile pieces can be removed, allowing you to wear the hair plain if you like. There were a few hairs I tinted a bit as their red was too bright for me. The other sets are A to Z, but I decided a Z to A might be a good option – just to be fair in case folks get tired before the end of the slide show.
