Giordana Color Set

This week’s second offering from Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore is Giordana. It’s another mostly-formal updo with a twist (literally): it’s banded in front by a braid.

 

 

It’s the A&A Giordana Hair Variety Colors V2, and it’s available for $L250.  Be sure to wear your A&A group tag and make your purchase from the Action Wall; that way, you’ll get an immediate refund of half your purchase price.

You can grab a free copy in Fire in front of the Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore Voting Wall.

Spring Romance Fair & Treasure Hunt! Including New Styles!

aislingoconnerLeave a comment

Spring is finally here in Rochester, NY, where I live in Real Life. I know—Real Life: what a concept! But the tulips and daffodils are in bloom, and so is the lilac tree.

And it’s also come to Second Life, in the form of the Spring Romance Fair & Treasure hunt. Where, oh where do I begin? There’s so much going on that I think it best to let Alice Klinger, owner and proprietor of everything having to do with Alli&Ali Designs, explain it:

We cordially invite you to visit the Spring Romance Fair & Treasure hunt!

When: 11th – 25th May 2019

Where: Alli&Ali Long Beach mall

Here you will find everything for a romantic spring from various great designers from all over the grid.

The treasure hunt items are little white flowers. Touch them to receive gifts.

Picture Gallery of the fair will be on the Fair blog 11th May about 9 AM SLT when we officially start the fair, here: https://wonderlandbeachevents.blogspot.com/

Enjoy!

PS: contact Alice Klinger with any questions about the fair and mall.

Naturally, there are also Spring Romance exclusive hairstyles for men and women, and also a few decorative items. Fair ends 25th May already. Location: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Long%20Beach/172/184/23

The styles include:

 

 

 

and also

It’s a man’s style (obviously), but I like it, too:

 

 

What do you think? I think it looks pretty good on me, even if it’s not available in my usual red. All I need now is a chopped Harley and I’ll be all set!

And don’t forget all of the offerings at the Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore, SL Marketplace, and Alli&Ali Designs Classic!

 

 

A Modern Update to a Classic Style

aislingoconnerLeave a comment

The latest offering from Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore is Vivianne, a modern take on the classic Gibson Girl style so famous in the 1890s. While it’s not quite so top-heavy as the original, that’s the style that came to mind when I first wore it.

It’s available as an updated release, which means if you’ve bought it before, you can get the new improved version by using the redelivery terminal to get it for free.

Sorry, everyone else—right now it’s only available as an update for those who have already bought it.

Vivianne, now at Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ready For a More Formal Look?

I probably should have chosen a more elegant outfit to model Yuki, but I had a migraine and just couldn’t be bothered. That, and I wanted to get my review of Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore’s newest offering to you as quickly as possible.

Yuki Variety Colors

And yet Yuki cries out for an elegant, formal dress to do it justice.

It’s a Variety Colors pack, which means you get all 16 colors for just $L250. But as is always the case during the first week of a new style’s release, wear your A&A tag when you buy it from the New Releases wall and 50% of the purchase price will be refunded to you. So you’re actually getting 16 colors for $L125, or less than $L10 each!

Oh, and the tiara that’s shown in the picture? You can wear it in any of 9 colors, or hide it altogether.

Yuki is available in Raspberry as a free gift at the front desk. Or you can buy it in Light Blonde from the Special Offers wall for $L50. Finally, it’s available as another free gift (in Blackberry) in front of the Voting Board.

 

 

Any way you look at it, Yuki is a clear winner for those long romantic nights, and it’s only available at Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore.

Get yours today!

Marina is Also Short and Sassy

And That’s My Favorite Kind

Not only because I’m also short and sassy, but because I look best in shorter styles. Besides, as a busy journalist on the go, I don’t have a lot of time to waste  spend on caring for long hair.

What? You think it’s easy writing these posts? Between modeling each new style, taking pictures, editing them, and then writing each entry, I spend close to an hour every time. And I do it all out of my sense of public duty.

Well, that, and the fact that I love getting new hair every week!

Marina Hair, Variety Colors

See? Marina. Short and sassy. With its low display weight and affordable price, It’s right for just about any budget.

$L250 gets you the full set of 16 colors, or you can grab it in Blueberry completely free in front of the voting board.

An as always, if you wear your A&A group tag and buy the complete set from the New Releases Action Wall, 50% of your purchase price will be refunded upon purchase. So for this week only, that’s 16 colors for $L150! That should give you enough combinations to mix & match with any outfits you might ever wear.

 

 

Marina, this week’s latest special at Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore. Check it out!

How Do They Do It? Iris Made Me Wonder

aislingoconnerLeave a comment

I don’t know how many items they have in stock, but when I search Alli&Ali on the SL Marketplace and display 96 images per page in the results, it takes 96 pages to list them all! That’s almost 10,000 items, and there are more every week.

Now I don’t know about you, but I think that the fact they have that many items and each item has a unique name, is definitely worthy of respect!

And yesterday’s release is also worthy of respect.

Iris Hair, All Colors

Iris is a modified page-boy bob, just slightly longer. The complete set of 16 colors is now available for just $L250. But if you purchase it from the Action Wall while wearing your A&S group tag, half of that will be refunded to you immediately upon purchase.

Still not convinced? The style in Amethyst is a free gift at the Front Desk, and
Sand Blonde can be had for $L50 at the Special Offers Wall.

And here I am modeling Iris in my usual favorite shade:

 

 

My usual complaint about A&A applies to IRIS as well: every time there’s a new style at Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore, it immediately becomes my new favorite! And this is especially true of the shorter styles like this one.

Iris. When you’re in the mood for short and sassy, you won’t go wrong with this one!

 

Mea Culpa, Mea Maxima Culpa!

Okay, I’m guilty. I confess. I review a lot of hairstyles from Alli & Ali. I get them—for free—from the Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore. But that’s not why I review them. Well, at least it’s not the only reason.

I’ve been using their products for almost as long as I’ve been in Second Life. I find their selection to be wonderful, their prices reasonable (especially when you factor in their new products discounts), and I love the low display weights.

I do have an Alt, and for her, I buy—at current prices—A&A products. I really like them that much.

Anyway, you deserved to know my connection to my vendors.

That being said, my next posts will review April 19th’s releases.

Until then,
