Faire’s Fair

There are a few events going on in SL at the moment (aren’t there always?) but this weekend, the fifth Fantasy Faire opens.  Personally, I’ve never been but I hear it’s quite amazing, especially if you are into fantasy wear. Plus, it’s a Relay For Life event so it’s for a good cause too! Pin Me Down will be one of the vendors at the faire (sharing a stall with SAKIDE this year, so you can find them on the Lotus Valley Dream sim) with some exclusive makeups. The Warrior comes in a faded black, and faded white which is tintable you can make it any colour you want. Myst comes in six different layers so you wear it how you want. Because this is a RFL event, 100% of the purchase price will go to donations. Another Warrior makeup will be a hunt prize that goes on for the duration of the Faire.

Speaking of fairs, Kawaii Fair has already started and runs until the 26th (or 28th? Both dates are listed on the blog so I’m not sure). Kawaii is full of nauseously adorably cute everything! Most of it isn’t my style but had to pick up this super cute Panda Tank Top from (R E D). It’s a panda! How can you not want it?!

Oh, one last thing, this week’s Red Solo Cup challenge is Austin Powers / 60′s British Invasion!  I got inspired because someone on plurk mentioned that with LeLutka‘s Bouffant hair, I looked like a fembot from Austin Powers. So originally I wanted to take a picture with a bunch of girls, all with the same lingerie and hair but because of various issues, it ended up just being Aevalah and I. I think we would be some pretty damn hot fembots.

I can’t wait to see all your submissions in the Flickr group because I think this will be a real fun theme for everyone!!

Say Do You Remember…

I probably should have mentioned this over the weekend but Apple May Designs new mesh dress September was available for 75L. Now it’s regular price. Yeah….sorry about that. It’s available in three “muted” colours (taupe, pink, and sky) and comes with a cute matching, mesh collar.

LeLutka also has some recently released hair. Usually I don’t go for the big “lion mane” like hair but I couldn’t resist picking up Bouffant. Also included is a separate pearl tiara attachment that adds a little something something to the style. Bouffant is definitely an attention grabbing and versatile hairstyle.

While I’m killin’ time, being lazy.

Don’t you just love those lazy days? The ones where you don’t really have to get dressed, you can just bum around all day? Well, Mon Tissu just came out with the new Oversized Shirt perfect for those leisurely days. I was hoping for more colour options but there are enough to make it hard to choose just one. I went with yellow because I’m on a colour kick lately. I’ve noticed most of my newish clothing is either pink or a bland colour like beige or grey so I need to add a little something something every once in a while. I’ve paired it up with Maitreya‘s Stefani pants ’cause come on, nothing says lazy like sweat pants.

Oh my Tee*fy!

Tee*fy released the super cute Skyla Ruffle Sleeve Tank which is perfect for the upcoming summer season! And it goes great with their Lovisa Ruffle Mini Skirt that is now available at Collabor88. Erratic also just released some great mesh owl bracelets. They come in 4 “metals” (gold, silver, bronze and pinkgold). Owls are so trendy right now so you know, go be trendy!

Red Solo Cup Challenge

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while and I have no idea if it will be successful or not but I’m proposing a new blogger challenge! I don’t know if “challenge” is the right word because this isn’t a mandatory thing that you have to do every week, I mean, it would be cool if you did but you don’t have to because I know how it is with blogging.

So here it is. Every Friday I’m going to post…something (see that fancy “Red Solo Cup” tab up there? That’s where the weeks challenge will be). It will be a feeling, a movie title, a quote, a song, a lyric, a colour, a place…WHATEVER. Anything that inspired me that week. All you have to do is interpret that however you want and take a beautiful picture (nudity allowed but as long as it’s tastefully moderate). Pretty simple, right? Each week, with the bloggers permission, I’m going to add my favourite picture of the week to the Red Solo Cup Challenge Page (that fancy tab up there, remember?).

I don’t know how long this challenge will last but as an added incentive, at the end of 4 weeks (so May 9th) I will pick my most favourite photo submitted to the Flickr group and that talented blogger will receive 1000$L from yours truly! So I think that covers everything…. If you have any questions, leave a comment and I’ll do my best to provide an answer!

So it’s Friday and the challenge starts now! The inspiration for this week is a Dave Matthews lyric from the song You & Me, “We’re gonna ride the blue all the way to the end of the world“  This is one of my favourite songs by DMB and I’ve been sitting on this picture from the Neva River sim which I actually took while listening to this song.

So I hope you’ll join my challenge and have fun will doing it! Can’t wait to see your beautiful pictures!
