Even in our retirement, Laynie and I heard the news of the injustice that was done to Gala Phoenix. One of the earliest skins I ever owned was Pale Sultry Lusterbeam that I first wore for the blog on March 26, 2007. We have always been admirers of Gala Phoenix’s talent and work. We have no doubt that her voice will be heard and the true will overcome the lies.

We wish to encourage everyone to attend the One Voice Fundraiser to help with the legal costs of fighting this injustice. This event will run until July 16th and takes place at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Mesh/92/84/22.

Salome Strangelove, another person we have long admired, put together a wonderful guide to the fundraiser on her blog, Salome Says.

I am happy to pay someone for their creative work in SL, but it’s also nice to get something for free sometimes. :)

This is a new hair from Exile, simply called Group Gift. It’s free if you’re a member of Exile’s subscribo group. If you’re not a member yet, you can still join and grab the gift!

The group gift is MESH, so you will need a current viewer to see it. The texturing on this is wonderful. From what I’ve been able to see so far, a lot of texture placement has to be done outside of SL while you’re building the mesh. It’s great to see such detail put into this hair.

Exile’s Group Gift hair comes in two colors. Shown is the brown with purple highlights. There’s also a blonde with blue highlights. The highlights are mild enough not to be overbearing. It includes an alpha layer to hide any bald spots that may show up on your head.

If you’re still curious about mesh, this is a great hair to try out. :)

Good afternoon! In the typical fashion I have of getting overly excited about nearly everything, I just want to say that I’m SUPER excited about the new hair from Analog Dog’s “Point B” line.  Point B is a new line with different colors and textures from the existing Analog Dog line.

I really had to show the back on this one, because that’s where most of the wonderful detail is. It’s very loose and tied with a claw clip. The length down the back is a separate attachment, so you don’t need to worry about it flying everywhere when you move your head.

It really feels like an autumn hair style to me, so I had to wear it with my new mesh outfit from JANE. To add a bit of fancy, I have on a jewelry set from MOOD. Details below!

Monday came by so fast this week! Luckily I have a lovely hair to show today. :)

This is a new style by Discord Designs, named Kaycee. I love Kalli’s style. She makes unique braids that are highly detailed and they always fit my head with little adjustment.

Kaycee is wonderful cornrow style that goes down the back of the neck, and then turns out in a deep wave. This design would work well for both men and women!

I look forward to seeing more of your work, Kalli!

I found another new mesh hair this week! Wasabi Pills brought out this fun hair:

It’s called Aria, and it’s available for L$250 for the color packs, and L$1500 for the complete pack. I added the flower to my hair from Artilleri. The hair is very full over the chest, and since it’s full mesh, it moves with you. I’ve been wearing it for a few days, and it’s been very fun! The hair includes both an alpha and a hair base as well, to help you in case something sticks through. This is a very nice option, since we cant modify the shape or size of the hair.

I’m looking forward to seeing more mesh from Wasabi Pills! :)
