Love – Girl Next Door

To love a person is to see all of their magic, and to remind them of it when they have forgotten.

Love is what is in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen

Since the season of giving is upon us, and Thanksgiving was just last night, I wanted to do something special to give thanks to all of you, who loyally follow and support me, while I grow as a blogger and photographer – without you, I could not have reached the point I am at now.

It’s Thanksgiving and I fully believe in paying it forward, and show how much you value a friend, who’s always there for you.

SO! In the spirit of gratitude and giving thanks, I am giving away 4 fatpacks of Kaithleen’s clothing for the ladies. One for you, and one for your friend. In all, two lucky winners and their friends.

And don’t worry gentlemen – you have not been forgotten. For the men, I am giving away one fatpack of Deadwool clothing for you and one for your friend.

The giveaway will end on Tuesday, November 26th at 12 PM SLT, and I will announce the winners the following day on the Flickr post by 12 PM SLT, and I will personally go with you to the store and gift you the prize.

So in order to be eligible for this giveaway, all you guys have to do is

1. Like and share the post on Facebook.
2. Comment with your SL legacy name on the Facebook post and the name of the friend you want to give a fatpack to, and tell me what you appreciate about them, and why they deserve the fatpack. ♥

Good luck and thank you so very much for your support. ♥

All magic comes at a price

It’s Halloween this month! Yay! Though I have to admit, I haven’t always appreciated Halloween. I found it a very scary time when I was younger, but I’ve grown more fond of it – not because I’ve grown fond of scary things, but because of the mood and excitement of the people around me. The atmosphere is what I enjoy.

With that said, Salem’s open – and there’s something for every Halloween lover out there. ♥ Dead Dollz has released the cute skull dress I am wearing in the photo – you can see the full dress and the awesome backside (of the dress 😉 ) below the credits.

Also to find in my post is Izzie’s – a brand I have supported and loved for years! This time she has released a set of fresh claw wounds and a set of aged scars to match – and I have to say, I feel she does it best. Wounds & scars come for both head and body – they aren’t made for Genus, but I used the LAQ omega applier and it worked fine. ♥

Alaskametro (I always have to double check that I spelled this right) has released the makeup I am wearing, also at Salem. It comes with a good selection of glitters and plain lipstick and eyeshadow. I normally do not buy makeup, but this I actually quite like despite how dark it is. ♥

For Uber, Glam Affair has released another cute skin, “Annie,” this time for Genus head. It comes with different shades of eyebrows and a no brow version if you want to add your own, as well as three different kinds of freckles and moles. See the Lelutka Uber release here.

My hair (which I absolutely love) you can find at Hair Fair, which is definitely an event worth supporting. A percentage of the sales go to “Wigs for Kids,” and I personally bought a lot more than usual, knowing that it supports such a good cause. Cancer can hit us all without warning, and I’ve personally had it close to home with my brother undergoing cancer treatment currently. Thankfully his is going well still – fingers crossed. ♥ You can read more about Hair Fair, the good cause and see the shopping guide on the official Hair Fair blog.

Last, but not least! Cae is releasing the Skull Collection. The set consists of Necklace, dangling earrings and studs. In this photo I am wearing the dangling earrings. The HUD contains the usual beautiful gem colors and metal. However! This time the HUD also contains a black metal if you want to go really dark and gothic for Halloween. ♥

What I am wearing:

New Alaskametro – Black Magic @ Salem.
New Cae :: Skull Collection – @ FaMESHed.
New Dead Dollz – Mini Skull – Black @ Salem.
New Glam Affair – Annie Genus Applier @ Uber.
New {Limerence} Marisa hair @ Hair Fair 2018.

You don’t need someone to complete you. You only need someone to accept you completely.

I saw this really adorable new mainstore release from Foxcity, and I immidiately knew that I needed to blog this. ♥ It’s a pose just after my heart – calm, sweet, and serene. ♥ But phew! The fitting was difficult, but we got there in the end, and I am really happy with how this photo turned out. ♥ Bed isn’t included in the pack, but is sold separately at the store.

Vanilla Bae has this cute set out at Equal10 – Hayley knotted top and shorts. Both are strippable as usual and come in 21 beautiful colors – pastels and bright colors. ♥ I have been running around in this a lot at home. ♥ Top and shorts are sold separately.

Varsity Days

Ah I’ve had such fun with my partner doing this post! I had a vague idea of what I wanted to do, but when I saw Amities sexy pose at XXX event, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it, and I am honestly quite happy with how it turned out.

For the Arcade, which is still ongoing, Reign has released the adorable “Varsity Days” gacha set and it’s truly adorable. It’s a massive set, with lots of costumization options to suit your needs. It even comes with a cute jacket for you to wear. ♥

HAIR FAIR 2018 EARLY ACCESS RAFFLE

It’s nearly Hair Fair 2018 time! ❤ I am super excited for this event every year! Some of the best hair designers on the grid, hair galore and you support a good cause at the same time! ❤

From the September 3rd till September 13th, TWO lucky winners each day have a chance to win early access to Hair Fair 2018 – one of you, and one for your friend. There will be 10 drawings, and tickets will be emptied at every drawing, so come every day to get your shot at winning! The only requirement is that you and your friend are available on September 21st, where the early access will take place.

Over the years in the lead up to Hair Fair, we ran a photography contest to win prizes and the most coveted early access to Hair Fair. This year we decided to bring everyone back into Second Life itself. The plan is to get people amped up and excited for Hair Fair by visiting different Hair stores all over the grid, and entering the first Hair Fair VIP Early Access Raffle.

To enter is a two-teleport process:

Teleport to one of the stores listed below click the ticket dispenser (as shown) and get a folder containing a ticket a landmark, and info notecard.
Teleport using that landmark, wear the ticket and click the entry terminal. If you happen to get distracted by wonderful hair and items on the way, well that is just more fun for you.

At the end of each Second Life day, we will list two winners on this website and a new draw will commence. You can enter a new draw each day just teleport to a different store, grab a new raffle ticket, wear it, teleport using the landmark and submit your entry at the raffle machine. It is that easy! Just remember you cannot use tickets more than once, and you cannot get a new ticket from a store you previously visited.

If you have any questions please contact Sasy Scarborough.

Each store listed below has a Raffle ticket dispenser visible at that location. (Not all stores participating in Hair Fair are listed due to vacations prior to the event.)
