Krampus

For my first proper post on my comeback, it seemed fitting to do something festive. In keeping with being a bit weird, however, I didn’t want to do the usual fluffy, festive picture. No, I thought I’d do something to do with a Christmas demon, instead.

I know this look isn’t exactly true to the folklore of the Krampus, so sue me. 😛 I got some awesome bento wings and a tail and I felt the need to use them~

Hair Fair? Hair Fair!

So, as many of y’all know, I was picked as a HF early access blogger again this year, and oh boy did I have to exercise some restraint! There was just so many cute hairstyles this year, from both brands familiar to me and those new to me as well! Since I’m on a bright coloured hair kick right now, I didn’t bother with any natural tones and just got the brightest, most colourful selections each brand had 😀 Here are my top picks from this year, though I just know I’ll go back and grab more styles in time!

If you’d like more info on the Hair Fair, which by the way, also benefits the fantastic Wigs of Kids charity with each purchase, you can go to the official blog for a veritable gold mine of info, like store locations and maps!

Pool Party!

HI again guys! I know it’s been kinda radio silence around these parts, but I’ve been fully sucked into MMO world yet again and am, admittedly, spending most of my time playing FFXIV and leveling up a tank character. Which, incidentally, is a LOT of fun! If any of you also play FFXIV, specifically on the Balmung server, let me know and we can be buddies over there too! Fair warning, I’m a roleplayer 😛

I also have some exciting news RE: Hair Fair! Demos will be sent out mainly TOMORROW (15th July 2016!) giving you an ample 24 hours to get your demo on and try out all the gorgeous styles I just know that the creators are going to be putting out this year. I’ve seen some stunning previews on Flickr already; I’m excited! Here’s a post with more info about the group and some security things to keep your account safe, which I suggest you read!

Whatever The Weather

Some awesome news, guys! I’ve been accepted as an Early Access blogger for Hair Fair again!

For the uninitiated, Hair Fair is a charity event, which supports Wigs for Kids, and will be held in world from the 16th of July to the 31st! That’s not all the news I have, though! Hair Fair are holding a contest, which closes on the 1st of July and has the theme ‘Whatever The Weather’! Hair must be a focal point in your submission, and if you blog your entry you need to link to the Hair Fair blog too, (this shouldn’t be an issue, as it’s all for a good cause guys!) I encourage you all to look over the entry rules and guidelines, as well as the simply fantastic prizes they have up for grabs, such as fatpacks from many creators, early access to the event and store credit to a couple of non-hair stores, amongst other things!

The second order of business is Bandana Day creation kits! Every year, while HF is happening, there’s a day when the organisers encourage you to live without your hair and don a bandana instead! The creation kit is available for purchase now, and if you’re texturally inclined I encourage you to make a version; again, follow the guidelines please! I’ll be trying my hand at creating something for Bandana Day, and I encourage all bloggers and other creative minds to do the same!

The above image is my entry into the Whatever The Weather contest! I decided to use one of my favourite hairs in SL for it, which is the Rain style by Exile, which I don’t use half as often as I should! c:

A Walk On The Wild Side

I finally convinced my beau to get the Logo Ethan mesh head, and doesn’t it suit him wonderfully?! He’s a Logo convert now, for sure. 😀

I’m also in LOVE with this location! The Ippos Collective is a collection of four sims full of artists, creators and other fun people like that. Ippos itself is a GORGEOUS sim, full of little nooks and crannies to take gorgeous pictures in! I haven’t had chance to look at the other three sims yet, but rest assured, I will be going back there for sure. Just be aware, if you visit, that The Ippos Collective is partly residential! Don’t burst into peoples’ homes or use their props and furniture without asking first!

Harnessed

Because of my forgetfulness thanks to RL meds, I often buy items, forget about them, then rediscover them some time later after literally never unboxing them! It’s a nice surprise to find a gorgeous item I bought but forgot about, but it does mean I forget to blog things while events are actually on… Oops!

This also means you may see another post from me today as I go through my objects folder and discover other gems I forgot I bought! Hahah.

Sad Movie Marathon

I haven’t been feeling well these past couple of days, so along with sorting out my SLife again, (I’m so out of the loop, it’s ridic!) I’ve been lying in bed a lot and marathoning sad movies. I just thought, with these gorgeous robes from Tres Blah, my avatar could look a little more glam than I do at the moment! I had to throw in some wine and junk food though, because both of those things make everything better. 😀

In The Deep

So, guess who went back to FF and ended up shopping. Again. I feel like I should honestly sign up for some kind of addicts club, and regularly introduce myself like, “Hi, I’m Hero, and I have a serious addiction to shopping for things I will wear once or twice at most,” hahah.

That being said, I seriously love these tentacles by Storybook! This is their exclusive FF colour, isn’t it just gorgeous? Anyone who knows me well will tell you about my obsession with cephalopods and all things tentacle’d, so it figures I’d go back and grab these, I guess. C:

Remember, you have just until the end of the day on the 1st of May to shop at FF! Of course you can donate anytime, (and you should!) but if you want to do the quest, (which I’ll cover in another post or two!) and buy yourself some exclusive items and recolours, you need to go now! Go go go!
