Nikita Fride – Bloom n Butterfly | Jungle King | Fashion Up Hair w/ Windblown w/ Glitter
A lot of readers have suggested that I should cover new brands instead of my usual favorites…. so here you go 🙂
I stumbled upon Nikita Fride last week and discovered a really huge shop with a large collection of hairstyles. I noticed right away that some of the styles and textures were “not me” but that’s exactly what I wanted. I think I tried on all of the hairstyles, but settled on a few that were cute and has cute hair accessories. I normally try to steer clear of animated hair, but it totally worked with some of the hairstyles at Nikita Fride.
For example, the Fashion Up Hair w/ Windblown w/ Glitter (how could you not love hair with windblow and glitter?!) has some animations on the flexi hair strands to mimic a windblown look, and I think it totally works for.. mermaid hair?
My friends have mixed reactions to this hair — some people liked it, some people thought it was weird/awful/bad/shockingly bad and weird.. but eh, you guys wanted DIFFERENT, right?
I don’t think this is bad hair, really! I would never blog something I didn’t like or wouldn’t spend my own money on. 🙂
*Note: These hairstyles are no modify but includes a resize script. Each hair includes two version — full bright and not full bright, but some of the styles included not full bright hair that had full bright hair accessories. I sent Nikita Fride a notecard requesting a completely no-bright version of the hairstyles purchased, and she promptly fixed that and sent me new versions. Now that’s what I call awesome customer service!
The Empress and Hierophant sim, along with all the other sims surrounding Alchemy Immortalis is for sale and will be closing soon! I took this opportunity to visit the sheeps one last time. Goodbye, lil’ sheepies!
If I made a list of my Five Favorite Places in Second Life (check out Ziki’s list!), I would definitely put Empress and Hierophant on it! Many people love this sim, so we’ll see if it can be saved and preserved!
If you ever want to make an entrance in Second Life, you need a gown and a crown. The Rosalinda Crown from Sparkle Skye comes as a full double crown or two separate headbands. You can even get creative with the mix-and-match color options. I have no idea where I’m going in this look, but when the moment calls for it, I’ll be ready. You can find this crown at Midnight Order.
Just Because is one of my favorite spots for gowns. The price is fair and the HUD gives you tons of colors and options. I’m wearing the Magnolia gown from Just Because, and I love that you can toggle the flowers on or off if you want something a little simpler. It’s no secret that I love gowns and dressing like I’m a 19th century lady.
Construction is underway at Aurelias! Our town is growing, and we’ve just finished building a lighthouse. I’m so excited about the arrival of autumn, my favorite season. We had hoped to launch the region last year about this time, but we didn’t make it in time for autumn. I’m so very excited for you to experience autumn in Aurelias, I think you’ll find it very cozy.
I’m so excited about these new Exile hair textures! I’ve snapped a random assortment of 20 colors that I thought were fantastic, but there are LOTS more choices available. Brunettes and Red Heads will LOVE these, cos while I was photographing I noticed that I liked so many of them. Here are the colors that I picked out, listed in order:
Row 1: aqua, auburn, blizzard, candy, champagne
Row 2: chestnut, chili, coffee, copper, whiskey
Row 3: earth, fall, greystone, harlow, hotstreak
Row 4: kindred, mink, nutmeg, pearl, tropic
I don’t know when the new styles & textures will be out, but I hope you liked the sneak peek 🙂
