Busy busy busy busy! 

You know, Hair Fair starts on the 11th? I won't be making my customary post(s) about it until the week after next though, because I'm going to Camp Hardknock in SL, on my adorable kid avatar. I had hoped to ease into this change with some posts of her, but instead, flailing and panic occurs because there are not enough hours in the day! 

Also coming so soon because it's an exciting week, Wizarding Faire! Opening July 12th. I am a massive Harry Potter fan, longtime readers (who am I kidding?) of my blog might remember my posts on the Wizarding Fair a couple of years ago, I am a Hufflepuff and I ain't even sorry. I love to decorate my house in SL with little hints about my being magical, a cauldron of potion on my stove, a stack of spellbooks as a monitor stand, and so on, so these things here from various creators at the event will my heart with ALL the joy because none of them are like "I am a thing from Harry Potter" and are more like "I am a thing magical people have" and I dig that. The plants, by the way, are amazingly animated, they are so much fun and have earned a permanent place in my home <3

This wand isn't really mine though. Mine is larch wood with a phoenix feather core.

The awesome-creepy Furby tattoo on my thigh is from the Body Art Hunt and is by Operate Bodyshop, and so it deserves a lack of pants, as suggested by my shirt by Oaken at IDK this month which you JUST have time to shop if you hurry!

Various hunts and things going on right now, in all the excitement over the Wayward Hunt (which is actually officially properly started now, and I eventually finished - I am very easily distracted) I forgot to mention the other hunt that I look forward to quite frequently - the Unknown Hunt. As the name would suggest, it focuses only on stores which have been open for a year or less. The item I'm featuring in this post, the awesome flamingo dresser I'm sitting on, is from a store I know well, not unknown at all, Little Llama, the owner of which, the delightful Percey Garcia, I know from Plurk and am so proud of how her brand;s been growing over the past several months. 

My dress is by Miseria on the Wayward Hunt, and coordinates perfectly with the colours I'd already chosen for the luna moths on my adorable little antlers by silentsparrow at IDK. You can tell they're moths not butterflies because they've got these fuzzy antennae and then they are at rest their wings are out flat like that instead of together and sticking up. That's like - the only thing I know about anything.

Conversely, a store I didn't know about that I'm wearing in this post, I first encountered on the Wayward Hunt, the store "Things", which is very hard to find in any kind of search! My tattoos today are from there, though they are not the hunt prize (that's some awesome henna hand tattoos). Anyway, I just totally adored the various shapes and patterns of these tattoos, they're what I often find myself looking for and the prices are great too. If you can find the place, that is. 

I bought PXL's Sweet Lips mesh mouth several months ago when it was first released, but never really had a chance to play with it until now. Of course there was the perennial issue of a lack of appliers, but recently Mochi Milena updated a her appliers for the Doll skin in Vamp with a massive amount of new options, I can't imagine how much work it was, and now I have a perfect skin match and can overlook any minor flaws and I think it looks really fantastic and I'm happy to add it to my pile of mouths.
