I dunno why I said Fairy… this post has nothin to do with a fairy but A LOT to do with hair! WOOO!

Today I decided to not throw a whole outfit together but just showcase quickly four new hairs to the grid and what gorgeous hairs they are (in my opinion anyway).

The first two are from Exile, now i’m the first to admit i’ve never really shopped at Exile properly, i’ve got a few hairs from there and they never quite fit my head spot on, and when hair’s do that I get cranky and give up, but i’ve played around with my head slightly and find that Exile hair now fits like a glove with minimal faffing, YAY!

Two new styles you can see here, on the left is Kelly and on the right is Courtney!

Kelly is a shorter hair style, sorta messy but cute nonetheless,  I found it worked better in a darker colour for me as my silly eyelashes poked through the hair, but I think it looks awesome in any colour!!  I think it’s a style better matched to a casual outfit, one that makes you look like rockstar

Courtney is a longer do, shown here in a nice warm brown tone it’s available in many more delicious tones.   What I like about this style most is the hair comes over your shoulders, so it’s not half sticking out your back in various poses, that’s a pet hate of mine about long hair *shakes fist* so YAY Kavar for making a style that doesn’t do that!  With it’s bangs a bit wild and framing the face Courtney is the perfect hair for any occasion, be it casual, smart.. sweet or sexy!

I’ve made a note to myself to pop by Exile more often and see what other goodies I come across, YAY!

Next on the old head are the two new hairs from Truth!

On the left here is the most delectable Pumpkin!  It’s a hair style that I ADORE but I probably won’t get a lot of use out of, it’s one of those styles that you love on others, but not so much on yourself… or at least it is for me.   It’s a whispy/shaggy longer style bob that flicks out with a mix of alphas and sculpties, the bangs hang all sultry like over one eye and it frames the face gorgeously for close up shots, I should know.. I love close ups and I WILL be doing some in this hair!

Sehra is on the right and OH EM GEE, love it.   I did have trouble again with my lashes clashing with the hair, but that’s not the hairs fault, don’t blame the precious hair!  A gorgeous bun style with the most beautiful colour change on click flower, it’s a gorgeous summery hairstyle that would look awesome with some beachwear or a nice floaty dress!  You can make the flower invisible if you don’t dig it too, although I dunno why you wouldn’t!

I really wanted to show you and up and coming ETD hair too, but I’ll save you all from drooling… FOR NOW!

It’s M time! It should be haMMertiMe but that’s later, WEEEEEEE!!!

I really didn’t have a clue what M’s I had that I really loved.. not that I could make into a look that was a bit diferent than my normal day to day get up, but i’d just finished shopping and had picked up an M, so I just started with that and worked around it.

First up… my eyes are from Miriel and are the Marine eyes, chosen in big from the fantabulous optiony vendor a gorgeous mix of marine colours for a really subtle seafaring look!

The hair you might not recognised, as it’s not yet released! It’s up and coming from Tiny Bird (rebranded and reworked Pixel Dust) and Autumn sent me a small sneak peak of a few new styles and textures. I really REALLY love the textures on the TB hair and this is the Maggie style, a loose and shaggy bob.

The skin is from Redgrave and is one of the many skins available (and that I own ) and it’s the Mischa2! Shown here in the Tan tone, the thing I love about Redgrave is the price… I’m not a huge fan of the body shading at times, but I really love the faces and I mostly take face shots and barely go naked so it works for meeeee! This is the Pink makeup.. slightly shimmering pink eyes and luscious lips, mmmm!

The outfit I have on is from Barerose, it’s all one too! I was very confused putting the pants on to discover they were actually jeans, I thought I had a texture issue and my jeans were stuck to my leg, so EXTRA BONUS! It’s the Military Hooded Jacket… it was UBER cheap and comes complete with various colour options and of course THE PANTS! I love Barerose, a LOT. I always end up spending loads and adding like 2k to my inventory buying about 4 outfits… it’s a problem but one I like

Poses are various from Reel Expression!

Another M for today is…Men… Men are a bit like Marmite… you either love em, or you hate em… like you can’t live with OR without them (oh of COURSE you could for god sake but it’s a saying )… I like my Men like I like myself.. honest, open, fun and adorabley loving and sarcastic in their own unique ways, and I’m blessed to have one of those. YAY ME! YAY FOR MEN! YAY!
