Noirette Sim at Hair Fair

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more Hair Fair gifts to show you, all of which in this post are from the Noirette sim. There are 3 sims filled with offerings and all purchases are between 15-100% donated to the Wigs for Kids charity. We are helping children who need wigs because of cancer or alopecia, and it can prevent bullying along with restoring the confidence of kids who are in the healing process. The designers have some wonderful offers, and there are several gifts for free or almost free :) If you want to contribute to the charity, there are donation kiosks scattered around the sims that you can pay any amount. The event is open until September 1st, so there is about a week remaining to stop by.


I am enjoying another dress from the -siss boom- lucky boards tonight, this one being their lovely Peppermints Pastel. The dress comes in sizes for Altamura Sofia, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine, with a 5 color HUD for versatility. My hair here is one of the two gifts from Ade, their Hurrah Hairstyle full pack gift. It comes in rigged and unrigged versions, and includes a style switcher HUD with 4 options. The color HUDs have 12 choices each in blondes, browns, colored highlights, greyscales, mix, ombres, pastels, and reds. The other Ade gift is their Hurrah Glasses, which are unrigged and include a HUD with 10 colors each for the frames, arms, and lenses individually. 


This adorable hairstyle is our gift from .EscalateD. called Castie - Rainbows. It includes two versions that each have two sections that can be tinted individually with the HUD, with V1 being top and bottom layers while V2 (on the right above) is left and right halves. The HUD has 40 amazing choices, brights and pastels galore. How cute are those bows in the back? ♥


EMO-tions has a great gift waiting for us, their *JAY* style in Black&White. The beautiful braids are pulled off the face, then cascade down the back. There is a color HUD with 8 monochromatic choices, and matching hairbases are provided as system layers plus appliers for Omega, Catwa, and Lelutka. 


This gift from Alli&Ali is truly a stunner! It is called A&A Thisbe Hair Unicorn Colors V2, and has beautiful curls and tendrils. The included HUD lets you resize the hair, turn the brightness off and on, and choose from 4 styles: with or without bangs, each with or without the delicate flowers seen on the right. There are also 16 playful texture choices, ombres and mixtures of fantasy colors that are sure to delight. Maybe it's because of the cream color of the dress, but I feel like this would make a gorgeous wedding hairstyle especially if you are planning a fantasy type event. The delicate blossoms sure contribute to that feeling.


My final look of the evening comes from no.match and is called NO_PENNY HAIR FAIR GIFT. There are high LI and low LI versions, and the fatpack of color HUDs includes blacks, blondes, browns, and reds with 12 options each. There is also an accessory HUD with 12 choices including stripes and solids for that fun headband. There are even hairbases provided, system layers along with appliers for Catwa, Omega, Lelutka, and TMP. 

The next few days are probably going to be rather quiet for me, but I enjoyed my outing earlier and have plenty of food for quite a while. I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hair Fair Gifts

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some gifts to show you from the Hair Fair, which is open until the 1st of September. There are 3 sims of displays from very talented and generous hair designers, and at least 15% of each sale is donated to Wigs for Kids. The charity provides kids with cancer or alopecia with wigs to help their self-esteem, and those wigs can also help prevent bullying from other kids too. There are donation kiosks on all the sims if you wish to give a set amount of lindens directly to the cause. I made a purchase and a tiny donation since I believe that every little bit helps. Many designers offer gifts for visitors, either for free or a very small cost, and that is what I'm sharing tonight. All of tonight's gifts can be found in the Blonde sim.


Before diving into the hair, let me tell you about my dress...it is a lucky board gift from -siss boom- that doesn't require a group tag to claim. There are several boards with different prizes, including this beautiful Motion Ocean Dusty strapless dress. It comes in standard mesh sizes as well as Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. Quick note: the designer observes the Sabbath and the store is closed from Friday sundown to Saturday sundown in her time zone, so you might need to wait until Sunday to visit. As for my hair, this is the gift from Exile called Vera Hair Fair Gift. It includes a fatpack HUD with a whopping 150 color choices, and you can click the hair itself to resize it. Their alluring Lily style for sale is the one I purchased while there, as a fun side note :)


Next I couldn't resist showing you the playful [KoKoLoReS] Hair - Easton gift, a shaggy style that includes a fatpack HUD with 192 total choices. That is an impressive array of options, and there is a tinting feature on the HUD too.


Mello&Moth is offering their Midnight Fatpack as a Hair Fair gift, and it is a terrific style that in brunette somehow reminded me of Kate Beckinsale. There are versions with and without materials, and each of those has a 'boobs' size for more generous chests. There is a color HUD with 50 choices, and a separate tinting HUD so you can even fine tune those if you wish.


Another display on the Blonde sim that has a free gift for us is that of Sintiklia, who are offering their Hair Safire - Colors&pastels roots. It has 3 fitted breast sizes, and 2 unrigged bangs add-ons, both of which can be seen above. The style HUD has 4 versions so you can wear either side behind the shoulder or both in front, or both behind. As for colors, we have 20 vibrant choices like the two I am showing here. The loose waves are a delight of a style.


My final look this evening comes from Tameless, their gift called Wendy Mega Pack. There are several hairs included each with and without roots versions and with or without lolas sizes (fades, fantasy, naturals) that each sync with the provided HUD to offer 30 texture choices for that particular hair. I'm wearing fantasy on the left and naturals on the right. There is plenty of variety to enjoy here with this charming style.

Whew, it has been a busy couple of days! I am continuing to have a bit of relief from pain with CBD cream, and it is easier to type when my fingers don't sting or throb with every movement. I have my usual Saturday plans to look forward to, but nothing that should interfere with my blogging for the next several days. Then before we know it, it'll be September and there will be new hunts and events to explore :) I believe there is a certain spinning cube that will be hiding in many of my favorite stores, to torment but reward Twisted hunters, just to name one upcoming hunt. I hope you all enjoy your weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Blonde Sim at the Hair Fair

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have several gifts to show you from the Hair Fair 2018, all of which are found on their Blonde sim. There are 4 sims named for colors (blonde, brunette, redhead, noirette) and 2 sims for camming over into the main sims to shop when they are full. It is open until the 7th of October, so you have about a week remaining to visit and pick up some terrific new hairstyles. There are styles at each display that have a percentage being donated to Wigs For Kids, and you can make a donation via any of the kiosks at the event without making a purchase. I suggest taking a peek at the Hair Fair website to learn all about the charity and see previews of what's available. I am also wearing a beautiful dress from Entice, which is extra affordable this week!


This eye-catching dress is the Entice - Sekushi Baby - Swirl, only $75L for the Saturday Sale. Now you might be looking at the time and thinking but wait, Saturday is (almost) over, but Entice actually leaves their Saturday Sale selections out for the discounted price all week. So this will be there until October 5th, along with 8 other versions for $200L each or a fatpack with 10 colors (2 exclusive to the fatpack) via HUD for $450L. Each choice includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya bodies. My hair in this look is one of four styles found inside the Calico dollarbie gift for the hair fair, this one called *C* Carson - Fades. It it is a textured bob that is longer in the front, and includes a Fades and a Rainbow Tipped color HUD, each with 25 choices. 


This next hair is called *C* Hazel Fades, and is found inside that same dollarbie gift. It comes in regular and large sizes each in an all mesh version, a partial rigged mesh version with flexi, and a rigged mesh with flexi adds. There are similar Fades and Rainbow Tipped HUDs included as the prior hairstyle, 25 options each for plenty of variety. This is such a lush, full cascade of curls with plenty of movement thanks to the flexi additions.


Yet another of the generous gifts inside the Calico dollarbie gift is their *C* Helaine - Fades, a crown of braids with waist length tresses down the back. There is an optional flexi add-on to give those waves even more body, and the HUDs included are the Fades, Rainbow Tipped, and streaks (as seen on the right) in blonde/brown, rainbow, and reds/darks/whites. The possibilities are nearly endless, so be sure to experiment with all the HUDs to find your look.


*C* Jessie - Fades is another treat from Calico, with the same Fades and Rainbow Tipped color HUDs as the other gifts with 25 options each. The style is a braided low bun that really brings out the different colors of each selection, with loose wisps to frame your lovely face perfectly.


Before you leave the blondes sim, don't forget to visit the MINA Hair display where you can claim this free gift called Lily - Dip Dye. It comes in rigged and unrigged versions, and there is a style HUD to show or hide that long strand in front of the left eye. The provided color HUD has 30 different choices, including the two shown above. The layers in the back show off the dip dye so well, and this style could easily work as unisex if you choose the unrigged which can be resized if needed. 

I hope you are all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hair Fair's Brunette Sim

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am showing you a handful of gifts for either free or a single linden that you can find at the Hair Fair 2018. It covers 4 full sims (plus 2 for cam shopping for when the sim you need is full) named for hair colors, and tonight's goodies are all from the Brunette sim. Don't worry, there is a wide variety of colors among the actual gifts :) I had a great time exploring, and trying on demos when I got home, so I might go back and make a purchase or two. One thing I always make a point to do is donate while I am there, since it's for an excellent cause called Wigs For Kids. Since I needed clothing too, LOL, I found an adorable gift shirt from the marketplace to wear with my favorite jeans which are also from the marketplace and free.


First I'll give you the details on my outfit. The top is from [Dixie Line] and is called Southern Belle Top, completely free promo on the marketplace. The top is in standard mesh sizes as well as eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine versions, and there is a HUD included with 3 textures. The jeans are from Delizio and come in several colors (this is the light blue), system layers and appliers for Omega and Maitreya. My hair gift here is the free KMH Hair Fair Gift, which consists of two unrigged versions: blue/purple (left) and brown (right). I love the bangs, loose tendrils, and fun ponytails.


Next we have the striking gift from Astrology, their London Essentials. It comes in small and large sizes, with a HUD that has 40 natural choices and 30 color choices. You can even choose to tint the left and right halves separately for even more variety. How gorgeous are those ribbon-like rainbow streaks? The flowing style with gentle waves really appeals to me too.


This style has so many luscious layers, it is downright feathery. enVOGUE HAIR is offering this Renesmee hair as their dollarbie gift, in fitted and rigged versions. There are two HUDs included also, light colors and dark colors, each with 16 choices as roots or base colors. The wide range of hues really complements the hairstyle.


Tameless Hair is offering their Lana style in its Mega Pack as their free gift. It has a regular size as well as a large breasts size, and there are 3 color HUDs each with 30 options: Fades, Fantasy, and Natural. With 90 different choices, you are sure to find a color to suit any mood or outfit.


My last look of the evening is the gift from Sintiklia called Kaori - Ombre. It is just $1L and includes bento rigged and unrigged/resized versions, plus two styles of bangs. There is a styler HUD with 2 versions to choose from, and the color HUD has 12 ombre combinations to get creative with.

Tonight is one of those "is it naptime yet?" evenings, lol, since I got a lot less rest than I needed. Tomorrow morning is my usual farmers market outing, then a restful afternoon *fingers crossed*. I hope you all have a terrific weekend planned, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hurry to the Hair Fair

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am showing a sampling of the gifts available at the Hair Fair 2017 from the Blonde sim, one of four sims packed with new hairstyles from so many of your favorite (and possible new favorite) hair designers, each of which has a set donation amount ranging from 15% all the way to 100% to the charity Wigs for Kids. I am always touched by how our SL community comes together for worthy causes, both creators who generously give of their time and hard work and the customers like myself who eagerly shop and use the donation kiosks at these events to help those in need. Now I mentioned in my title to hurry, that would be because the Hair Fair wraps up this round at midnight SL time on the 16th, so there is just over a full day remaining. Maybe you've already visited but missed something, easy to do with so much to see, or were trying to decide between two fabulous new hairdos, now is the time to get back there and scoop up those exclusives! I also have another Beached Bunny 7 Hunt prize as my clothing for the evening, a sweet summery dress from MOoH! that made me smile.


My first look shows off the lovely gift from Blues called Perla, and it includes fitted and rigged versions each with a +boobies size, as well as a HUD with 20 color options, 10 pastel shades and their versions with roots. I feel like a sexy mermaid in this long wavy style, and really enjoyed the color choices. This particular gift is $1L and well worth it in my opinion.


[KoKoLoReS] has this sharp looking style as their Hair Fair gift for all of us, called Sniper and including a regular and an ombre version along with several color HUDs. They are Balayage, Naturals, Ombre, Rainbow, and Unicorn Dreams which each offer several appealing choices for tinting.


You will need to give this photo a click to see it full size to appreciate these styles from Alli&Ali, which are actually just a small sample of the 16 assorted styles for men and women in their very generous hair fair gift. From left to right we have Galaxia Lilac, Nikita Cool Dark Brown with Extensions (an optional attachment), and Valentina Frosted Raspberry. There are many other styles in various colors to see in this gift too.


Tameless Hair has a playful updo as their gift for us, named Vivian Megapack and offering 28 different shades on a HUD to select from, along with a tint feature on the same HUD for the hairpins in this style. I am drawn to updos and even more so since I began blogging, since they will not hide any of the outfit or jewelry I am trying to share. Also in the hot RL weather I'm experiencing, I need my neck to get a fresh breeze! As you can see, the colors here range from natural to fantasy, a nice mixture.


Our final look of the evening is from Vanity Hair, their MeninaBonita Must Haves Pack which is just $1L at the hair fair. It includes a very handy HUD with 24 colors and a streaks tab with another 24 shades, some the same as the main colors and some different, and even some tint options for you to explore. This fun style is like a pixie with a twist, those softly curling ends contrasting with the blunt diagonal bangs. It is also an excellent time to fill you in on all the details of my adorable dress, the !MOoH! Ariel Dress which is $1L when you find the blue beach pail for the Beached Bunny 7 Hunt. It comes in standard mesh sizes plus a fitted version as well as Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions, and the included HUD offers 6 textures to make you think of sand and surf in fantastic shades of blue. This dress certainly has a terrific summer flavor!

Today I am deeply grateful for the miracle of air conditioning, LOL, as it is another sweltering day outside. I am also thankful for shelter since I was out and about in some wicked thunderstorms, which delighted a fellow acupuncture patient (teenage boy, wanted to make the alert system sound his ringtone) but mostly just made me nervous. I hung around the clinic for an extra 15 minutes or so to let the storm pass a bit. Now I am in for a nice but very busy weekend :) I hope all of you enjoy your weekend too, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Hair Fair Beauties

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have gifts to share from another sim of the Hair Fair 2017, this time from the Brunette sim. As I have mentioned the past two nights, this wonderful event showcases new hairstyles from a wide range of designers, and each purchase has a designated percentage (15% to 100%, each labeled) donated to the Wigs for Kids charity. We get to help real life children in need, while updating our inventory a bit with a fresh hairstyle. There are donation kiosks if you prefer to donate directly instead of buying or want to throw in a little extra after a purchase. Some of the designers are thoughtfully offering free or $1L gifts for visitors, and that is what you will be seeing here tonight, like the last two posts. I have so much fun showing you these creative looks, and breaking out of my own hair rut! Now I can't very well show you these without wearing some clothing, LOL, so I picked out a dollarbie hunt prize to wear and will give all the juicy details at the end.


My first hair is our gift from ICONIC and is a fatpack with an array of HUDs for plenty of colors as well as a style changer. The color sets include Bombshells, Brunettes, Obsidians, Tonal, Vamps, and Total, and the style HUD offers two slightly different positions for the sides, one is pulled back from the ears and jawline a bit. There are also appliers for hairbases included for Catwa and Lelutka.


This fun burst of curls is our gift from EMO-tions called JOINY in dark brown, and you can see from both views that it has flexi for added movement. They have provided a hairbase for system heads, however I used the base from my GA.EG Barbara head's included HUD which worked out just right.


Sintiklia has a sleek bob as their gift for us, called Lida, in two different colors and each in Bento rigged, resize, and rigged versions. On the left is latteroots, on the right violetblack, and I have gone with the resize versions so a simple click let me enlarge them to fit my head. 


For our final look of the evening, we have a very generous gift from Gorgeous Dolls which includes hair and nails with rings. The hair is ~GD~ Jo Fatpack and includes color HUDs called Brazilian Bundles (one is on the left), Natural w/roots (middle) and Sweet Glamour w/roots (right). The nails are called ~GD~ French Tips/Ringed (Baddie Claws) and there are sets for Slink Dynamic, Maitreya Bento, and Vista Bento included. Each set consists of the nails, delicate doll rings, and a HUD with 14 nail shades and 12 metal colors. In the inset I chose one of the few that is not a simple French style, and you can get a better idea of the shape and length of those curved claws. It is also high time I explained my versatile outfit :) It is the Beached Bunny 7 Hunt prize from Adri's King called Outfit Fable, and a single linden when you find the blue beach pail will get you this outfit in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, Maitreya, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine, along with a HUD that offers 12 textures (solids and prints, as seen in tonight's various photos) and 4 choices for the jeans, each a great denim shade. 

We are having a heat wave here and the sun setting did not cool things off much at all. However I do have a really exciting weekend planned so I'm in a very good mood :) My best friend of 20+ years is coming to visit on Saturday and attending two farmers' markets with me, and as a bonus another friend is staying the entire weekend so I will be very happily busy. I have one more sim of Hair Fair gifts to share, then I might take a brief break from blogging to be able to spend more time with them. I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

It's The Hair Fair Bunch!

Hiya everyone! Tonight we have more gifts to see from the Hair Fair 2017, an event I am very fond of because it is an opportunity to find fresh hairstyles while helping a very deserving charity, Wigs for Kids. Each vendor shows you what percentage of the sale price is going to the charity, ranging from 15% all the way to 100%, and they are brand new designs specifically for the Hair Fair. Many of the designers offer gifts, which is what I am delighted to show you for a few days, and you will want to hurry since the fair closes on the 16th. With 4 full sims to explore, there is a lot to see but since the crowds have dwindled it shouldn't be too bad. I wore a full body alpha and not a single thing else, hehe, no AO because nobody could see me walking for example. Tonight I am sharing finds from the Redhead Sim specifically, one sim at a time for ease of locating them. For tonight's photos I selected a free gift from the Marketplace, where we can always find a great outfit without any risk of lag or crowds.


This first hair gift is from MINA Hair and is named Haley, a cute asymmetrical style that comes with the Reds HUD so you have 10 shades of crimson and auburn to choose from. Even if I weren't normally a ginger, I think I would have a lot of fun experimenting with these colors since they are all so pretty. There is a materials enabled version and a no materials one included so you can choose which matches your software/hardware needs best. I love having materials enabled in my viewer for photos, but I know some prefer to leave it disabled and this hair will look great either way.


Next we have a delightful gift from no.match called No Pressure Unicorn, and it comes in two sizes (busty and regular) with a HUD for 15 different color mixes, two of which you can see here. There is also a set of hairbases in system layers and appliers for Catwa, Lelutka, TMP, and Omega, which I am wearing here as well. The colors and the style are very appealing, and nice for those of us who occasionally fall into hair ruts. 


:CHEVEUX: is also offering a gift at their booth, it is simply named Hair Fair 2017 Gift Fatpack and includes this adorable bob with buns and a HUD with 29 color choices on it. The hair itself has a resize script built in, so just give it a click if you need to adjust the size. I love the wide variety of color offerings, you can change your look in an instant.


This clever GoodyHair style from ( r e d ) M i n t has a secret that you cannot see in the still photo...there are two sizes, and each has a version that has Bento animation built in! It gently moves as though you are standing in a soft breeze, it was rather mesmerizing as I was setting up this photo :) The bright sunshine yellow is very cheerful, and the diagonal bangs add a slightly edgy touch. You may notice some new jewelry there, well this gift bag includes a set of Pared Down Heart Rings for Maitreya, Belleza, and Slink hands. Each pack holds a ring for each finger and a set of all as I am wearing here, with a HUD that changes each ring's metal color separately (15 shades in all) or hides them if you wish. This is such a generous and fun gift!


One last look of the evening, another gift from the Hair Fair can be found at the Analog Dog booth, their AD - joga Full Color Pack which includes the hair and matching HUD for blacks, light blondes, light browns, light reds, dark blondes, dark browns, dark reds, and splash (the left side shows one of those) as well as system layer hairbases. That is a lot of versatility in a terrific style, and my head is a bit on the large size so it will look even prettier on you :) I love partial updos, and the soft waves are dreamy. Now for the details on my dress, seen in all of tonight's photos, it is a gift on the marketplace from Ben's Boutique called Loya Dress HUD Driven. It includes the dress in Fitmesh, eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, and Maitreya sizes, and the HUD offers 20 colors for each the dress and the belt. As you can see, I've tinted them different colors a few times while matching them a couple as well, plenty of versatility in this strapless mini. 

I wonder how many people have any idea what my post's title is referring to...I used to watch a lot of old cartoons at night (Boomerang network for one) when I first developed insomnia, that should be a clue. *waves to Xan ♥ whose suggestion led to the title* I hope you are all having a fantastic day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hair Fair Gifties

Hiya everyone! Tonight I will be showing you some gifts from the Hair Fair 2017, a wonderful SL tradition where hair designers come together and offer selected hairstyles with a percentage of the proceeds going to Wigs For Kids, each style is labeled with the chosen donation percent. I tend to be quite the creature of habit when it comes to my hair, so I love this opportunity to see all these talented creators' work and pick up some new hair for a worthy cause. There are also donation kiosks in each of the 4 sims so you can help out even more if you wish. Tonight I am showing some gifts I found at the Noirette sim, and I highly recommend their very useful guide on their website to track down specific vendors if you don't have time to explore fully. I needed a pretty and versatile outfit to help me show off all these great hairstyles, so I chose an offer at The Liaison Collective (TLC) from Entice. Well, let's peek at the pretties!


My first hair gift is the generous TUKINOWAGUMA *TGW* Razo style, which comes with plenty of color HUDs for any mood or preference. There are 15 shades on each HUD: Blondes 1, Blondes 2, Browns 1, Browns 2, Colors 1, Colors 2, Natural Colors 1, Natural Colors 2, Reds Blacks 1, and Reds Blacks 2. The high pony is braided halfway down, ending in a soft curl, and I am partial to bangs and wisps.


This sharp style is our gift from .EscalateD. called Nadja, and includes a HUD that says 30 Shades of Inferno across the top. There is a section for the main color and one for streaks, with solid colors and tips or ombres like on the right, all in various shades of red. 


The gift from NANI is a playful style called Catherine in Dark Brown, with gravity defying spiral curls and pretty peaks of hair framing the face. Such a creative look, and the color is widely flattering.


Here is another photo you will have to give a click to see the full size, to really appreciate the gift from Exile. They have included Evie & Judd in their free gift, this is Evie and both styles work with the included color HUDs: blondes, browns, grayscale, mix 1, mix 2, naturals, natural fusion, reds, wild fusion, and wildcards. While I usually gravitate towards soft reds like the shade on the left, I am totally in love with the rainbow streaks on that middle one! The brunette color is especially pretty on this style too. This is also a good look at that beautiful dress I am wearing, as I mentioned it can be found at TLC (The Liaison Collective) and is called Entice - Island Girl Dress. Each color is $200L individually, or I highly recommend the fatpack for $599L which includes 2 bonus textures for a total of 10. Among the individuals, there are 4 solid colors and 4 tropical varieties with the exotic print on the skirt and a solid tone up top. The bonuses in the fatpack are a sunny yellow solid and a pale blue tropical. My landmark in the credits will bring you directly to their display at TLC, and the mainstore link is in my right sidebar as always :) 

Today was fairly busy and productive, and it looks like the next several days will be hectic as well. Probably really hot too, judging by the weather forecast, so I will be hoping to stay cool and calm. I will be showing more Hair Fair gifts for the next few days, and I admit it is comforting to have a clear plan like that :) Meanwhile I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, with magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
