Curbside

This years batch of DRD elves can be found at the Merry Crisis Gacha Fair. You might find yourself curbside with them however, as they are pretty offensive and have a hard time making friends. Nefarious has a gacha collection there of bows that are well worth a few pulls. This is a new brand but the few things they have done show tons of promise. The bows come for the neck or the head. Also shown here is a new hair by Spellbound. You can find it at this round of CarnEvil.

Another December

Its December again and Second Life gacha has never been better. The Men's Department is hosting a special gacha edition this round along with non gacha items like this messenger bag from Remarkable Oblivion. This version is cayote tan but there are two others to choose from. You can also grab this down vest while you are there by Mikunch. It fits great and has a HUD to change the button down shirt texture underneath. Head over to the Arcade and have a look at Spellbound's new release. Shown here is the Dreamy Bear rare using the blondes HUD. The hat itself has color options and there are plenty of commons without the hat so you can wear this hair year round. Half Deer blesses our inventories again this December with a new winter version of Kerfluffles. These sheep are really fun to collect and have a place almost anywhere in or outside your home.

Grateful Dreads

Years ago there were only one or two decent dreads for your avatar in Second Life. You had to wear them black because any other color only highlighted the awkward textures. I started wearing dreads regularly a few years ago when Boon really stepped up to the plate and created some great styles in mesh. Soonsiki has also released a regular stream of dreads in funky styles but this latest one shown here is Tableau Vivant. You might remember the first Tableau Vivant dreads that came out last winter, flowing out of a winter hat. These are a little more versatile and can be used in role play or for your modern out of character looks. You can find these now in two styles at We Love Role Play

Bramble

Spellbound seemed to spring up out of nowhere earlier this year with such a unique perspective on hair and branding that their influence can be seen now in many other hair brands in Second Life. Creator Kohana Xue has a style all her own and if you have a streak of rockabilly goth in you like me, Spellbound will fill your needs. Her latest release is Bramble, a flowing full bodied look with a slouch beret option. The hair comes with a HUD for the beret giving you 8 color options and fantastic texturing. Bramble can be found at Sad November untill the 22nd. Also featured here is a tulle apple skirt by GATO. I had to grab this at the Xiasumi School Festival for the pattern which reminds me of vintage oil cloth. The event is donating proceeds to Save the Children so shop away and feel good about your spending!
