Fashion Liability!

Okay, okay, you probably can.  But for some reason I have *that* movie stuck in my head, much like a song this morning that wouldn’t leave my head.  No, I won’t tell you which one because then you’ll have it stuck in your head and then you’ll blame me and then I’ll get it stuck back in my head and in a vicious circle, it’ll go round and round.

Truth Hawks is, by every standard, one of the premier hairstylists on the grid.  I don’t think anyone can dispute that, whether you like him or not.  He’s full of opinions and not exactly afraid of sharing them (which is one of the things I like about him), so he’s made his fair share of enemies.  But as my former partner, I can attest that he has a good heart.

His four latest hairstyles (three of which I’ve shown above) are pretty different from each other, which is always nice.  He pretty consistently releases every Thursday (Friday for him, being Down Under, I suppose) and to have some variety in his hairstyles is fairly cool.  He does have hairstyles in his store that are similar to others, but I think every hair creator with the number of wigs in their store will have a similar situation.  His latest textures are by far my favourite anywhere on the grid, and if I had any talent at texturing whatsoever, I’d redo all the other hairs in my inventory with the same textures.

On the left is Trina, which comes with the hat attached.  The brim’s underside is a Burberry-type tartan print (I hesitate to say it *is* the Burberry tartan) and the top is menu-driven colour changeable.

In the centre is my absolute favourite of this week’s releases, Lucinda.  And of course, that reminds me of a song I really love, Those Three Days, by Lucinda Williams.  Which I will totally have stuck in my head all night now.

And on the right is Lizzie, a funky braided style.  The braids are kinda inside out, which is a fun twist on Laura Ingalls’ classic ‘do.

Each pack of hair will cost you L$225, or a fatpack of all colours is L$1500.  Don’t forget that Truth is having a big sale on right now, selling soon-to-be-retired hairs for only L$25 a colour pack, or L$200 for the fatpacks.  There are some gems in there, thankfully excluding the Phoenix one!

Hair is not the only thing the talented Mr. Hawks can create though, having two other buildings full of clothes, and some shoes.  I’ve been bugging him for weeks to enter the shoe fair this year and yay, he finally said yes!  I don’t know if he’ll make some new ones for the fair, but one can always hope, I suppose.

Pictured above are three jackets/shirts that are currently selling in his store.  I absolutely love the Second Hand Jacket, shown on the left.  It comes in eight colours, and I am wearing Smoke.  The print is definitely something you’d be likely to find in a vintage shop, and I like that there’s not eight other creators making the same thing, that I’m aware of.  They are L$250 each.

In the centre is the Sabah cropped jacket, which is textured in suede.  It’s a simple jacket, but sometimes that’s all you need to finish off an outfit.  They’re L$200 each, or there’s a fatpack available for L$1850.

On the right is the lovely ruched top, which has a colour-change belted bow I absolutely adore!  The only thing that could make this top better is sculpted sleeves *cough cough* Maybe in an update, perhaps? xD  Each colour is L$185, and the fatpack is L$1200.

Wheeeee I love brown!  Chocolate, walnut, tan and beige, it doesn’t matter, I love them all.  It’s funny that brown is one of those colours you have to grow up to appreciate, because I certainly didn’t love it when I was a kid, nor did I know anyone else who did.  It absolutely shines here in three of Truth’s gorgeous outfits, though.

The Cosmo dress is a halter-style belted minidress which is perfect for the summer party you’ve been invited to.  Sure, it’s nearly winter here in the Northern Hemisphere, but in Australia and other parts of the world, it’s just coming up to summer!  They’re L$285 each, and the fatpack is L$2000.

There’s a certain something about the Sunday dress (centre), but I’m not sure what exactly it is. Perhaps it’s the leather belt, which could keep it from looking sack-like.  Perhaps it’s the paisley print, which thankfully is not all over the dress.  I love the textures, and how casual it is, pretty much everything about it.

The Spy is a short closed trench, which comes in six colours.  It’s not really aptly named though, because it’s hardly the thing to wear if you want to lay low.  Six colours are available for L$300 each, or the fatpack is L$1500.

Did I mention SALE?!  Go before it’s gone!  P.S.  In case you haven’t noticed the map near Truth’s store lately, there’s a new Sim called Truth Hair.  I asked him about it, and he’s going to be moving all of his hair over to the new Sim sometime soon, hopefully, and then they’ll be more room to make more hair! (My wishful thinking, but still!)

Teleport to Truth.
