.a child at heart.

My key to staying young and trying not to age TOO quickly? Staying a child at heart!  I laugh at the silliest/smallest things, I sing in the shower when I’m getting ready for work, and I do a little dance in the rain.  Pigtails always help get me through the day and I do LOVE some cotton candy!

Sweet Hair Fair Favorites

I can’t believe it!  Over 6 hours of shopping and I still had time to blog it all before Hair Fair officially opens at midnight.

Why did I call these my Sweet Hair Fair Favorites?  (Well, you’ll just have to wait and go!) But… before Hair Fair officially opens, I wanted to show off some of my favorite finds today to everyone.   Not just great hairs, but great designers!  These are the people I bought multiple from because I just couldn’t help myself.  I have to say that I am extremely impressed with the talented designers gathered together for this year’s Hair Fair.  And a special kudos must go to all the designers and planners because the SIM is just beautiful!

I want to point out 3 designers I’ve shown here that we haven’t seen mentioned on the grid too often, that I must say after looking at, demoing, buying, and then writing about their product I think are going to start heating up.  First up is Posh Hair.  Great Styles, texture, and movement.  I love the bows not only in the headband of one hairstyle but also in the hair itself.  Second – Head Mistress. I was just blown away when I saw these, and I must say that I love the name of the shop just as much as I love the hair.  And Third – Raspberry Aristocrat.  I didn’t have the opportunity to meet the designer of Raspberry like I did with that of Posh and Head Mistress but I was still very impressed with the hair and super excited to see hair that I had not ever bought before in my time in SL.  There are so many wonderful things about Hair Fair and the charity that is being supported.  But speaking strictly in world – I love that it is an opportunity to find new designers. 

All of the rest of the hair designers I showed you today are amazing as well.  Vanity Hair.  (Tabata – I love you. You are a sweetheart) and of course  Aoharu, Truth and Maitreya.  I have been waiting for the new Maitreya hairs for what seems like forever and was so glad to finally get them on.  And the Truth hair did not dissapoint.  (Truth’s hair never dissapoints me)

I also bought up the lamb and Tiny Bird.  But for sake of blogger variety I chose not to feature those in this blog since they have already been featured so much.  (I’ll just tell my readers they are amazing.. and go ahead and  buy them)
