Clothing Fair 2010 is approaching fast, 13th of March to be exact. One of the bigger events of the year with the donations going to RFL as they do every year, this is the 4th year and they are getting bigger and better with each one. The landing point this year is amazing, it was like arriving at the Olympics.

One of the stores taking part this year is Phoenix Rising. The gown I am wearing is a sparkly strapless combination that just works beautifully. The texture on the skirt is like falling light beams, and the bodice is gorgeous.

I decided that with that expanse of neckline, I didn’t want to go with the more traditional formal jewelry. But opted instead for some of the new Recluse collars from Plastik, these come in various styles and colour/print blends and are just lovely…you know I love posture collars, so these will definitely get featured again in the other variations.

The second outfit comprises of the top of one of the newer dresses from Phoenix Rising, I decided that the jeans and top looked so cute together that I went that route for now. it also gave me another chance to wear the waist belt from cobrahive, this one actually more of a high waist belt.

New hair from two stores, the first is Vanna a style from Pazazz, the textures are that tight curl look, and as an updo it is really nice. The second is really new from Exile, and I am so loving the pixie like bangs, very vintage and so hot. I pray that Kavar does a lot more styles with this bang look, because the possibilities are just OMG.

What I learned today :

Dot Lane plans on moving on;

I am sad now, but I understand why.

Dot Lane Girl Reporter:
I want to write something special, I want to express how much someone like Dot Lane can mean to people that see her for what she is. See her use humor as a way of protecting herself, a woman that even though pint sized could fill ten thousand servers with her charm and charisma. A woman that reached into my heart all the way down here, and has now filled it with heartache that I didn’t get to tell her every day how incredible she is. But I know that she doesn’t need me too, that she knows I adore her so much, and that she would think me silly sitting here typing in tears just because she isn’t going to log in her avatar anymore.

I am sad that she will be in plurk and I can’t spend lots of time there, but I do know she is happy, and that she is finding new adventures with her life. It is funny because I can just hear her in SL , and imagine her in her safari shorts and jacket from CKS about to take on the new world she has planned for herself. I imagine each day her sitting by lamplight writing down her memoirs and experiences with the wildlife she encounters. One day maybe I will come across some writing that will be by someone not named Dot and I will just know it is her, that no one else in the whole world could ever be the same, write the same, or have the same outlook on life…she is outstanding.
