Two at One Blow!

In the story of the Brave Little Tailor, the tailor kills 7 flies with one swat of his hand. To celebrate this feat, he makes a belt containing the boast, “Seven At One Blow.” You can read all about it right here.

Well, from the title of this entry, you might assume that this will be a tale of two styles—and you’d be correct. They were both released yesterday at Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore, and are ready for purchase.

Natalya

Natalya is a nice, curly style for both work and play. It’s tied back to keep it away from your face, but it hints at how long it might be when it’s worn loosely. And since it’s already tied back, it’s also perfect for drinks or dinner with your BFFs after work!

 

 

As always, the complete kit, including all of the colors shown in the advert above, is $L1500. Individual color sub-sets are available for
$L250 each, and you can grab the single Light Brown color free at the voting area.

I like this one.

Agnesa

Agnesa is a smart updo for all occasions. Like Natalya (above), it’s great for work or play. I like the way it features loose tendrils, which hint at a slight erotic dishabille.  Again, it’s a great look for work as well as fun after with your BFFs.

 

 

The details:

The full color set is L1500, while individual sub-sets are $L250 each. But there are two specials! Butter Toffee is free at the front desk,
and Caramel is on special for $L50!

Just a reminder that the February Formal Styles sale is still going on at both Alli & Ali locations: Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore, and Alli&Ali Designs Classic. Don’t forget their website, and be sure to look for them on the SL Marketplace.

And that wraps it up for this week!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, You Poor Dears!

Sometimes I find myself feeling sorry for men in Second Life. And to be honest, in real life, too. You’re far too restricted in what’s acceptable for you to wear and how to look.

In the song “My Conviction,” from the musical “Hair,” a character sings this:

“I would just like to say that it is my conviction
That longer hair and other flamboyant affectations
Of appearance are nothing more
Than the male’s emergence from his drab camouflage
Into the gaudy plumage
Which is the birthright of his sex.

There is a peculiar notion that elegant plumage
And fine feathers are not proper for the male
When actually
That is the way things are
In most species.”
–Galt Mac Dermot / Gerome Ragni / James Rado

Fortunately for you guys, the crew at Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore have got your backs!

Andrew is a new style for men, but to be honest, I like it as a unisexual style—it looks just as good on me as it does on the model in the picture above. And I’m sure that a few of my dyke girlfriends will like it, too!

 

 

And you’ll love the price: $L250 for all 16 colors. And as they say on television, “But wait! There’s more!”

You can get it in Sand Blonde for free at the front desk, and in Coffee for free at the voting booth.

Okay, guys: never let it be said that I con’t keep my eyes open for you!

 

Beliza: An Elegant Updo

aislingoconnerLeave a comment

This week’s first offering from Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore is Beliza, a formal updo.

Again, notice the low display weight. In case you missed the earlier post, the display weight is basically how many prims the style adds to your avatar. The lower the better, because it reduces lag.

The complete set, which contains all the colors you see above, is $L1500. You can get it in Mixed Platinum for $L50, or in Autumn Cinnamon as a free gift below the voting board inside the Mainstore.

And I’m back to modeling it in my favorite red:

I like this one. But I’d like it even better if a Certain Someone ever gets off her lazy butt and takes me dining and dancing as she promised. (Hint, hint…)

Regardless, I’ll be adding Beliza to my regular rotation of styles.

Curls, Curls, and More Curls: Melrosa

aislingoconnerLeave a comment

This week’s offering from Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore is Melrosa, a lovely curly head of hair that looks good on anyone, no matter the color you choose.

It’s another style with a low display weight, and it’s yours for $L1500 for the complete set, as shown above.

If you’re on a tight budget, Melrosa Fire can be had for $L50, while Variety Colors are $L250 the set.

Finally, if you look below the Voting Board, Melrosa in Dark Rose is absolutely free!

And for the last time, I’m modeling it in one of the Vampire colors. For my next entry I’ll be going back to my usual red hair.

So until next time, I’m signing off with my usual

 

 

 

 

 

Hurry! Get ‘em While You Can!

Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore has two specials for us this week. But there’s a catch: you won’t find them at any of the usual outlets. They’re Hair Fair exclusives, and that’s where you can find them. But hurry: they’ll be gone after October 7!

Celebration

Appropriately enough, since the Hair Fair is a festival, Celebration is the first offering. It has a very low display weight, and is available in a wide variety of colors and styles. And yes, I’m modeling the red!

 

 

I love long, curly styles. What can I say? I’m a girly-girl! Dresses and long hair for me, thank you very much. I revel in my femininity!

And the next selection only underscores my taste:

Dany

 

Dany comes in four styles and a huge selection of colors. With a low display weight, it won’t bog you down with lag, no matter where you go. And of course, I’m wearing it in red:

 

 

Each set sells for $L1500. But if you’re the kind of girl who likes to change her hair color and style to suit your mood, they’re both a steal at that price. Bought separately, this many colors and styles might very well run you over $L2,000!

So Don’t Wait!

Tempus fugit, and October 7 is just around the corner. So hop on over to the SL Hair Fair and grab yours today!

And That’s It For This Week

Oh, yeah: tempus fugit is Latin for time flies.

Sybil: All Colors, or Just a Few

Sybil is a lovely set of curls you won’t find anywhere else than—you guessed it—Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore.

A&A Sybil Hair All Colors-pic

As always, the complete set, including all the colors shown here, sells for $L1500, and as is usual, you can also buy smaller subsets:

Sybil Hair in Russet is a Gift box located  by Style Suggestions, below the Voting Board

You can also get three other color sets:
All Brown Colors: $L250
All Blonde Colors: $L250
Red Colors: $L250

And here am I modelling Sybil in red:

I think I may have just found my newest favorite style!

A Touchy Subject

Or, Making the Carpet Match the Drapes

This week’s offering from Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore is twofold:

Camina is a somewhat straggly-looking style, similar to what your hair might look like after a long day at the office. Or, just as equally, a long night partying. Either way, I like it.

So of course I’m modeling it in my favorite color!

As with all of the new designs from Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore, Camina has a very low display weight, the importance of which I’ve already spoken here.

It also comes in four different styles,  depending on your preferences.

The complete set sells for $L1500, but this week’s sale (at the front of the store) features Camina in caramel for $L50.

You can also buy the Ombre set for $L250:

 

Matching the Carpet to the Drapes

Okay, ladies. This is a bit more personal…and trickier.

I used the word “trickier” advisedly: I couldn’t find this item in the Mainstore. So here’ what you have to do: go to Alli&Ali Designs Classic. Once there, find the map/kiosk and click on the Pubic Hairs selection. I’ve sent a message to Alice Klinger (owner of A&A) to see where, if at all, it can be found in the Mainstore.

The complete set, with all of the colors you see above, is $L1500. Individual color boxes are $L250 each.

And no, I’m not going to post any pictures of me modeling this set! See me in-world if you’re that interested (or that perverted!).

Remember, the Alli&Ali Designs Mainstore should always be your first stop when shopping for quality hair and accessories.
