I spend a fair amount of time hanging out in Kavar’s workshop watching him make hair. He thinks I must be bored to tears, but it’s a lot of fun seeing the whole process from first placed prim to final hair ready to sell in Exile. His latest hair, Runway 1, started as a goof as he was placing several partially finished sections just randomly on top of each other, and then I stopped laughing as I realized I liked the way it was shaping up. I asked him if I was crazy to think that, and he agreed with me that there was a shape there worth exploring as a runway style, so he deconstructed it all and then carefully put some of the pieces back together and added new pieces to create the final Runway 1 hairstyle.

The first time I saw the hair with the wild ribbons running through it, I knew I was going to love it, but I didn’t know I was going to fall so hard for the cotton candy shade in it. There’s just something gorgeous about the way the highlights of the texture follow the sculpted prim pieces in the front, and I find myself coming back to it again and again and building outfits around it. The fact that there are so many textures for the ribbon is just a bonus.

I’ve also fallen for the fun and whimsical designs from Katat0nik Pidgeon, and I adore her beautiful strawberry legwarmer boots. These particular ones were a group gift that I’ve been wearing a lot since she sent them out. You can see more of these and matching dresses at her shop, but for this look, I mixed together some other pieces and became a silly fairy with an unexplainable fondness for pink. I love it when an outfit comes together so easily, and I immediately flew to Chakryn Forest for some photos.
