The contest ends June 28th, so there’s still time to figure out your favourite movie hairstyles and to have fun with pictures before that. Hair Fair itself begins July 13th, so there’s still a long time to wait. More details on the contest can be found here.

As for the blue sci-fi hairstyle itself, it’s Delirium by Alice Project. Alice has a big summer sale going on until June 27th and has just released Create Your Own packs, which allow you to mix-match hair colours from all her HUDs ever, but only five different copies of the hair. This is great if you normally use just few colour-combinations, but if you want to be able to change your hair colour often, the Infinity packs are still the way to go. Alice’s HUD system has saved my blogger-behind on countless days of ‘but I need this green hair in slightly darker hue and with golden highlights’, so I wanted to give kudos and praise where it’s due when speaking of upcoming Hair Fair.

She’s often unhinged, often obsessed about something, regularly portrayed as possessed and supernatural. She mixes girly dresses and innocent beauty styling with that glint in her eye that suggests a dagger hidden behind her back. She’s the villain who murders people, then sets them around a tea party with dolls, humming while serving cake.

Perhaps it’s the contrast between beauty and brutality, innocence and insanity that makes the combination so popular. The childlike manners make the murders all the more creepy, but oh so very successful in captivating our imagination.

The No Remorse skin by Essences can be purchased in We Love Role-play event, the Noxy dress and Kronos hair by Adoness are available in The Thrift Shop event and the Halcyon jewelry set is a new release by Zibska.

Gemini mind is always on the move and requires challenges. It might get distracted by another challenge before completely finishing the first task, though. Focus, especially when it requires monotonous, patient tasks is not Gemini’s strong suit. She wants to find out new things, investigate, talk about them, ask questions, let her mind dance around the refreshing influences.

Although also one of the mutable signs, Gemini tends to find balance between seeing both sides of the coin and compromising and finding a way not to give in too much. She’s great at understanding problems, situations and people: at least intellectually, when not too much emotions are involved. Like all air signs, she flitters away from the darker, deeper seas, preferring the lightness of air.

Gemini might often feel like a modern version of Jekyll and Hyde, with their proper and extremely wild sides wrapped in one person. The unpredictability shows in their looks where they prefer one thing one day, another the next, like their wardrobe was put together by several people. In a way it is, for The Twins do love to shop.

The skin by Essences and the Gemini necklace by *Perception* can be found in the current round of Zodiac. The dress by Valentina E. and the bracelets by Maxi Gossamer are available in FaMESHed and the purse by [HAND]verk and the furniture by Apple Fall can be won in The Arcade.

It’s not a bad thing to at least get to emulate such solutions when in reality most of us have to daily just plaster a smile on our faces at people we fervently imagine getting a piece of axe-problemsolving instead. Logging into a virtual world where you can just run around, hack and slash and visibly defeat things is practically a form of therapy.

So truly: when things begin to annoy you the next time, try a game. After a few hours of killing virtual population in inventive ways and being praised for it, the edge of frustration is surely gone. Sometimes taking a bigger axe is the right choice: as long as it’s made of pixels.

The Razivia Valkyrie skin by Fallen Gods Inc., Vale Coat by The Muses and the face chain by .:ellabella:. are all available in the current round of We Love Role-play that has just started. The Axe of Retribution is by [EZ] Weaponry.

The night makes it all a part of the same in our mindscapes, closes all distances, brings everything within touch range. It hides the sharp lines of logic and reality from our eyes and lures out the other senses, invites imagination, becomes a sensation instead of a sight.

Enough so that if you look up to the calling depths around and above, you could almost believe that all it takes is letting go and diving upwards. For the sky is just another sea.

The feather hat and accompanying accessories by Zibska are available in The Gallery Gift Shop. The Concubine dress by [ SAKIDE ] can be found in World Goth Fair Port Seraphine. The skin by +Nuuna+ and makeup by Beautiful Freak can be purchased from World Goth Fair Cursed. Speaking of World Goth Fair, it will close 12 hours later than originally intended since it opened 12 hours late: you have time to goth-shop until noon SLT on June 1.

All the included bands have given their official written permission to use their band logos in these shirts. They are sold from gachas, all the funds go to Sophie Lancaster Foundation and the gachas are available only during the fair. There’s a separate gacha for men and women’s shirts, all the shirts are black (what other colours could we possibly need?), every prize includes all the sizes and there’s 34 different shirts to be won.

The band shirt gachas are available in both sims of World Goth Fair: Cursed and Port Seraphine. The skin by Jalwa and the pose and nails by Orc Inc can be found in Port Seraphine, the makeup by Pin Me Down, the pants by .{Rue}. and the choker and rings by House of Rain in Cursed. The Burn rings are in a gacha right next to the band shirt one.

I’ll be hosting the Best in Vampire party at 2-4pm SLT for DJ Acerose Razor and decided I liked my hostess look so much that I’d blog it. The ruins behind me are where the party will occur, right in the middle of the WGF Cursed. The first shift starts at 10am SLT and the party eventually stops fourteen hours later at midnight SLT. You can see the DJ and theme schedule here.

Now what are you waiting for? Get your goth on and join us in Gothika!

The Malina dress by Pale Empress and the Khalida skin by +Nuuna+ are both available in World Goth Fair Cursed, the rest of the look is old favourites.

Perhaps there can be a symbiosis between humanoid life and flora, if nowhere else than in our imaginations. Sinking in limb-like roots that allow moving about, skin absorbing alien lights, humanoid hands kept for their usefulness, hearing becoming less vital when the senses are attuned to pollen and pheromones…

I have always enjoyed such moments of trying to envision how life would look like through the eyes of something so alien that their priorities and needs in life differ completely from human. It gives perspective.

Almost all of the alien plant can be acquired from the new round of Genre that focuses on scifi. The skin by Jalwa is not actually green, I just played with windlights. The tentacle outfit by The Stringer Mausoleum went perfectly together with the mask and ear pieces by Spyralle, hair is by Analog Dog and the Biologic Evolution body tattoo by Fallen Gods Inc. completes the look.

Who’s to say that bunnies cannot have tiny fangs as well? Or at least a preference for colours that are not pastels? Maybe there’s a secret bunny underground, opposing the damnable association to pink? Begone already, abomination unto the gods of colour!

One must remember though that no matter what colours a bunny wears or style she prefers, they cannot escape their true nature. You can cover them in black and blood-red, give them bad-ass weapons and observe them trying to fang-hiss while wiggling their noses, it’s no use: the cute is always there.

You cannot blame them, though. There are two defences a bunny can have: run fast or be too cute to kill. Have you ever tried to run in high heels or a gala dress? Did not think so.

Most of the things in the post are from World Goth Fair: The swing from *~by Nacht, the bunnies by Crushed Violets and the tiny gothic outfit by Tiny Bit Radikal can be found in Port Seraphine. The Isabella dress by :{MV}:, Khalida skin by +Nuuna+, Pluto eyes by .{Rue}. and the Burn jewelry by House of Rain are available in Cursed. The bunny ears by Adore & Abhor can be purchased in the We Love Role-play Event.

The spaces, the edges, the armors are very rarely physical. They are all in our heads, in our own limitations and comfort zones. Leaving them, daring the edges will get you easily cut. But perhaps you win more room to move in by learning exactly where the edge is. Perhaps the edges move in time and should be revisited.

And maybe, just maybe, once you learn where the sharp edges lie, you will learn how to wield and control them without hurting yourself.

The Bloodborn and Coalborn upper body tattoos by Fallen Gods Inc. are available in World Goth Fair Cursed. The Ghost skin underneath is also by Fallen Gods Inc., the War version currently on discount in We Love Role-play Event. The beautiful katana is a new release by [EZ] Weaponry.
