If you could run Phils Place for a Day

If you could run Phils Place for a Day

So the other day I had another thunk, and it occurred to me how often people comment about the state of Phils Place ( SL ), things that they think should be the way they want them to be and so on. It got me to thunking what would I change ? there are often times we make broad statements of disappointment over particular things, I know that many would love to see the mesh changed on system skirts, I’d like to see that because then more might embrace the love.

Others would want more layers allowing for tattoos to be able to be added to the body and face, without taking up existing clothing layers. My Mel once suggested that the ability to choose where an item is worn would be a huge change, and I agree, the idea that if an older item was only made on one top layer, that by right clicking it you got to choose if it was worn on the jacket, shirt or undershirt , regardless of its only being made on the shirt would rock. Imagine the mixing and matching you could do then – bliss.

There are dozens of things that I would list, that if I was able to get them implemented I would lol, but I want to hear yours, so Imagine, if you were able to have free reign over Phils Place for 24 hours, and all the resources and technology at your disposal what THREE things would you do, change, etc.

NOW as this could potentially get a bit whacko in comments, or not, lets make it very clear up front, you cannot post that you would remove someone , steal, copy, grief, attack, make things free, etc, these have to be things that would benefit all and be some kind of change to an existing ailment, or possibly the introduction of a new tool.

The changes or new ideas you comment with may not even benefit you, they might just be something you have often thought would be a help, like the ability to mod items on an avatar , when granted mod rights by the person wearing the items, this would help in customer service and also when people are new to Phils Place for sure.

Anyway have at it, and I can’t wait to see your ideas ) you can post anon but seriously take the credit lol

The Magic is non stop – ok well not exactly but YAY

The Magic is non stop – ok well not exactly but YAY

Magic of Oz is extending their hunt until Friday, for all those on different timezones and who couldn’t get on this weekend to partake in the festivities, you have an extra five glorious days to do so.

Candy Cerveau: We’d like to thank everyone for making the Grand Opening of Magic of Oz an incredible experience… we couldn’t have hoped for a more wonderful and enthusiastic response and we are so glad that people seem to love Oz like we do. The hunt has been extremely popular and the sim has stayed at capacity for 3 days now. I know that there are people who have not been able to get in enough to find all the items and some have not been able to get in at all. So we have decided to extend the hunt until Friday the 10th at 10 pm SLT! This is a thank you from us to all the people who have supported the sim. We are so grateful to you and to our fantastic vendors whose gifts made the hunt as epic as it was. So spread the word – the Slipper Hunt is here for another 5 days!

It was instant love when seeing the latest release by Sachi Vixen of Adam n Eve, the Dorsal set is a magnificent collection of both a teadress as Sachi calls it – me I call it a vintage prom frock- or the incredible full gown.

As you can see in the pics, you get both stunning lengths and a naughty option as well.

The back to the Dorsal has either the demure option , or the plunging. Whatever the occasion, either option will have people captivated. The stunning halter neck style to this dress ties off at the back of the neck in a sweet little bow, then repeated at the mid back so that the dress has no gaping from the deep plunge.

The fabric is just divine, with the stunning beading on the bodice and base of the full skirts, I am also totally in love with the colours, and as shown the stunning Rose Dorsal gown would make a remarkable Bridesmaids dress, and it already matches perfectly with the Essentia Bridal Cascading Boquet in Red Harmony, I am also wearing the Corsage by Essentia in the Crimson Dorsal.

The whole look is just beautiful and you will feel like a Princess when attending any event in any of the Dorsal colours, and in any skirt or plunge option.

The hair I am wearing in these pics are from top to bottom, Cafe by Analog Dog, because with the Tea Dress option it was perfect in a vintage Bombshell way. The Serafina Hair by Bishwear available at Savoir Hair and FREE which is too perfect and so divine, also the Snood hair which is always a favourite from Curio, and does come with net and lace covering for the back.

The skins with their captivating make up, sensational backs and pinchworthy bottoms is also from Adam n Eve and are the Pandora Skins in Saucy, Crimson and Precious make ups, so many stunning make ups to choose from in this skin range, make sure you try on the Demos, and speaking of Demos, ALLLLLLL the clothing at Adam n Eve has Demos to try before you buy, so you can see exactly how fabulous you are going to look in the Dorsal.

The shoes you don’t really see , but that are fabulous also, are the Sasy Chic shoes by Aphrodite Creations in Noir, yummy textures and a beautiful low heel open toed slide.

Always thankful for:

Essentia for my Beautiful Hair Roses and Jewelry many pieces of which I have watched being made, and had the pleasure of wearing first as they are custom fit to my shape-I’m blessed.

Ameer

Ameer & Sale

Ameer clothing is a NEW store, designer Craigy1 Magic IM’d me a few weeks ago and I don’t think he knew what hit him. His items are wonderful but there were so many things I just had to let him in on when it came to catering to the masses here in Phils Place and he listened with patience and acceptance that I was trying to help, poor guy I exhausted him.

A few days later he sent all the items back to me with the changes- it was more to do with naming and layers, I’m not that bad – and they were all there, it really does make such a difference if you do layers especially from the start, as many designers know, going back to redo is a big fat pain in the head. I is rambling , but I just wanted to explain really that Craigy1 is planning to be here for the long haul, and my experience with him showed me not just a passion for design but one for business too.

If you get a chance though, the guy is FUNNNNNNNNNNNNNY check out his first notes lmao.

The first pieces that I fell for, are the Brown and Gold suit Blazer and Pants, these are actually sold seperately which is kind of neat, there are times you need a jacket but have a favourite pair of pants etc, so the ability to only buy what you need is pretty cool, and the vintage style of this jacket is wonderful, I have a RL one like this in red with white trim that I adore.

The hair is an older style from Random Fashions, it is the Cameron style and I have always thought it very striking , it suits this look but also looks wonderful when all girly girl frocked up.

The skin as I promised more of is again the La Sylphide Erin skin by Stephanie Misfit, I have been wearing this skin on and off ever since I got it, this is the Tan-Cocoa in both regular and smoky eyes, the matte lipstick is just beautiful and again wow those lips. I know I have mentioned this in the past, but I really do have a nose fetish for my own nose in RL , and this kind of nose is why I love it. Wearing a different brow shape with most of the pics today too you can see that these adapt so well to whatever your preference is, so if you haven’t already, you need to DEMO DEMO DEMO.

The shoes I will talk about at the end .

The Angela Long Turtlenecks are adorable also, a long turtleneck in lovely colours, there is a prim attachment to the bottom but it isn’t needed, and I couldnt resist the belt from HCT. When choosing the hair and putting on the fabulous Panda Jeans also from Ameer I realised that I looked like an arty student, so ran straight to my belts folder and plucked out the My Colors Belt for Big Kids.

The whole look is so fun, and yet still casual stylish, the turtlenecks are a lightweight fabric so its more like a snuggly tshirt than anything which I love. The Panda Jeans are done so well too , with the Panda face wrapping around the entire leg on one side, in a worn in denim look. The hair is from Moonshine and is the Emily hair, I have tinted the band that holds the messy style off the face, and it came up a treat for this look.

In this pic I opted for one of my favourites of the La Sylphide Erin Skins which is the Burnt Orange, that colour is just fabulous, I really have a hard time deciding what I like more though, the regular or smoky, it’s so hard they both rock.

A bit more body today with the Glam Shine Bikinis from Ameer, the metalic look texture on these are great, and WOW on the kini bottoms, I was having a blast with these, especially when I came to the pose used with the green , I said to Fia that it looks like I’m pulling my pants down, his response was ‘You look like your trying to keep them up” he is a brat.

They ended up the perfect Bikini’s to show how cute these skins are alllll over, the colours in the bikinis are beautiful and I adore the strapless look , and I think that those bottoms would work great as panties under very low pants, as thats always hard to find – if you are a panties wearer of course.

Wearing the Silver Surfy Necklace and Bracelet from Studio Sidhe, the bracelet is a mix of miniscule sculpted prims with the same pendant featured as the necklace on its leather strap, this style is so unisex and so surf culture down here, I feel like I got off the 380 went to SDS and headed down to Bondi, taking the arvo off- lol that was so aussie speak.

The hair is Valerie from Wonderhair, I had never been to Wonderhair prior to getting things done for HF and when putting out the signage at the store I was in awe of all the incredible hair that I hadnt seen in the past, and the styles like this one released at Hair Fair made me a big fan, so be sure to check that store out if you havent already.

The last skin shown is the La Sylphide Erin Pale , no lipstick and perfect for the beach or just days spent lazing away.

Now you know me with discontinuing lo, I’m crazy against it, but the fantastic Mishima Dawn shoes from Maitreya were done in soooo many wonderful textures, and some of them are very similar in colours that Onyx and Beauvoir decided to put the similar ones on SALE and then to retire them, BUT the others will still remain in the store, so I couldn’t kick up a fuss lol.

SO in reality this is your chance to grab a BARGAIN as they are being sold at 185L per pair, or the leathers pack is 1K for the fat pack, make sure you pay attention to what is in that pack before purchasing as its not all the styles just one leather style.

As I said the textures are wonderful and the style of shoe is fantastic these look amazing with dress pants, AND again at that price how can you not grab them.

All poses today were from Persona, I have finally redone all my stands due to something coming soon and am so excited. The Persona Poses are just wonderful and you have to check out the new Family posesets if you haven’t yet, because if you have a family in Phils Place you are going to LOVE THEM, Kids AO coming soon too WOOT.

About Scarborough Flair

I have changed how I post due to the size of my posts.  Now I only show the pics on the main posts front page, and then the bulk part of the post is a clickable link to see more.

More is the names of stores and the items shown with the same pictures. This has a lot to do with me not wanting to take up such a large amount of space on the feeds my blog goes too. I apologise if it is confusing people.

Also all slurls/teleports to the stores shown are on a seperate TP page listed alphabetically, if you find a slurl is not current or somehow I didn’t add it thinking I had done so in the past, please let me know in world or in comments, accidents happen and stores move. I will try and get you the info asap, and update the page.

When talking in my posts if a Name is in black and bold it is the store name, if in bold and red it is the item name, hopefully that will make skimming easier and its something I have always done.

Loco Pocos Love

Loco Pocos Love ♥

I have been so neglectful in my Loco Pocos updates. When I stress about how much I have to do, I remind myself of Damien Fate and Washu Zebrastripe, shake myself and get on with it. I honestly don’t know how they manage, not only do they both have islands they manage and make items for, but both have done a remarkable job this year of being on the Hair Fair Committee.Damien is the genius behind our Bandana bases and Donation Kiosks as well as many other things we needed, and Washu built the sims as well as taking on so many responsibilities with the organisation of the fair.

Anyway in my neglecting of many things bloggy, I have had these incredible Loco Pocos avatars sitting in my inventory to share for way too long. One of the things that people wanted as soon as they opened the doors was pants, funnily enough girls got skirts and the men demanded pants, I tried to convince Fia he could wear a skirt and pretend it was a kilt but he wasn’t having a bar of it.

Well now not only are there pants, but so many other amazing items to add to your Loco Pocos collection.Starting with the wonderful new characters, we have from top to bottom, Martha,Daphne, Nina and Olivia , aren’t they prescious.

As usual all the avatars have all those wonderful hud features, allowing you to change fur colour, whiskers, eyes etc…then when you add an accessory or item of clothing, the same applies giving you so many options. The sculptie work on these avatars is just a delight, and I especially love Nina the Monkey, and doesn’t she look adorable as a Wizard.

Once all of their other commitments are behind them, Damien and Washu have so many exciting plans for Loco Pocos, so be sure to keep up to date with the goings on over there, I cannot wait for new dreams and possible hunts , the last one was a blast. Remember Loco Pocos is so much more than just shopping, its an adventure and so entertaining, so go back if you haven’t in a while, and take some friends that haven’t had the pleasure.

Do what you can

Zorena Deckard of ookami Ninjen told me the other day about this event that was being hosted this weekend. With Hair Fair and everything else going on I didn’t get a chance until now to do anything about it . I have since then Donated some Gift Cards from Digit Darkes but also Donated 3 Dazzle Gowns that will be Auctioned off, I hope that that helps in some way and I hope that many of you can get over there and make a difference.

Info from the Notecard.

Phoenix Psaltery and his SL/RL wife Sansarya Caligari are both long-time, well known residents in SL. He owns part of one of the oldest SL newspapers, The Metaverse Messenger, and Sans blogs about her passionate love for SL fashion.

Just a few days ago, Phoenix went into complete renal failure and has ended up in intensive care at a hospital away from his home town, with a shunt for dialysis. Unfortunately, there are other complications as well, including pneumonia. Finances have gotten dire for them as Sans has to stay at a hotel while he’s in ICU, not to mention other expenses that are incurred and with children left at home in the care of relatives.

So their SL friends have joined together to help them! We are putting on an all day auction and live DJ event. Many people have donated items such as transferable Dazzle dresses, and merchants have made limited editions for sale at this auction only.

The event starts Saturday August 23 at 10AM SLT, with a fabulous DJ line up.

* RL original oil painting by Jen (from Jen) SL name Schechinah Enoch (title: Currents Oil on Canvas 2004 20″x24″) Free shipping is included if it gets a price of $250USD or more.

Unbalding for a Moment

Unbalding for a Moment

Ok so for the last day and a bit, I have been bald and primless. Many of you know that Hair Fair 2008 is in full swing now, and as one of the Hair Fair Organisers I have been at the entrance of Orange for hours and needed a break.I also wanted to wear some of the hair I was able to get before we opened lol. Anyway this is by no means all of them , but I wanted to snap some shots and give you a peak.

This first one Jordan is from Discord Designs, it is an incredible braided style, and sooo awesome, the braiding detailing at the scalp to really give the effect of your hair being pulled tight and worked into these stunning braids is just wonderful. The mens pic in the lower corner is the Freebie for DIscord Designs, the beard and the hair in two colours, so make sure you check that out too.

The skin I have on is from Lion Skins and is the lovely SUZANA- sunkissed 60, wanting something that was subtle in colour but as dramatic as the hair, this skin is just perfect.

Discord Designs at the Hair Fair

Dernier Cri has released Mariko on the left and Natasha on the right, both stunning styles in beautiful textures, the dyepack system is genius allowing you to buy as many as you want and creating your own unique colour pack. The demo style allows you to change colour as often as you want to , but the purchased wigs only allows for once, so make sure if you are buying more than one you keep your demo and demo dye pack so that for the next time you want to colour one of your purchases you can test with the demo first.

Mariko is a long sculptie style, very soft bangs and lovely waves, Natasha is a beautiful semi pulled through bun style with lovely wisps of hair on the sides, great for casual or formal events.

The skin is Lion Skins SUZANA- sunkissed 51, stunning soft peach like lips and eye make up offsetting the same peachy yummyness with some splashes of lime, this skin would be great for cocktail hour lol.

Dernier Cri at the Hair Fair

HCT’s Babyboo Glitterbuck has started only recently to do Sculpted hair, and wow. We all know that going from priims to sculpties has been a huge task for many and its wonderful when a blend of both is used in a style. The styles shown from left to right are Moni, Raina and Fiona and the little pick is Lonnie the Freebie Female hair for HCT (Here Comes Trouble).

Gorgeous sidepony in the Moni with lovely layered effect in the length, the Raina hair is two pieces, the hair at the front and the way cool beanie, that comes in so many different patterns and colours. Fiona is sooo gorgeous , it is a stunning Uppy Do with such wonderful curls. You get the with and without headband option in this style, and I adore both.

This skin SUZANA-pale 57 is one of my Favorites of the Lion Skins, it looks so wonderful and I can just imagine the incredible pictures that arty type people could take with it.

HCT at the Hair Fair

Mirada has the wonderful short style Codie on the right with that sort of shag razor look in a gorgeous wine texture, it is scripted for easy resizing and would look great on men also. Rattus-Alex is a wonderful Dreads style pulled back tight and tied off with an intricate knot, allowing for some loose and strategic tendrils on the sides, this is sold as main colour with three streaks combos included. Lindsey the smaller pick is the freebie style also scripted and in the fat pack of all colours.

SUZANA- sunkissed 63 by Lionskins has incredible dramatic eyemake up and soft lips, another of my favs of the Lion Skins range.

Mirada and Rattus at the Hair Fair

Teagan Blackthorne of Savoir Hair and also a member of the Hair Fair committee has put together a slurls list of the booths at Hair Fair to help make it easier to locate particular booths HERE , but make sure you check out ALL of the wonderful designers that have done an incredible job of making this years Hair Fair magnificent.

Always thankful for:
