Versastyle: Hair Trends @ Calla

Welcome to my first post on the Calla blog, something I'm super excited about :)

I'm fascinated with how one hairstyle can have so many different looks, depending on the hair colour, shape, skin, clothes and accessories people are wearing. I've seen countless examples of this when I see customers in the Calla store or by people watching in other places in SL and even browsing fashion blogs or flickr. Everyone has their own sense of style, and I love to see how different people wear hair from Calla in ways I wouldn't think of myself.

The idea behind Versastyle is to highlight the different ways each of the hairstyles at Calla are being worn out there, and you can get involved! Whether your style is goth, punk, pretty, classic, grungey, vamp or fairy - we want to see how you wear Calla hair!

As Tigerlily mentioned in the previous post, we want your photos! Calla's slogan is "Discover your style!" - well now we want you to show us your style!

As well as featuring reviews of Calla hair by customers on this blog, we will also be looking for photos of people wearing each of the styles in their own unique way. These photos may be used in my posts here or for other exciting upcoming events (more about all that soon!), and I hope you'll find it fun to follow and contribute to. You can upload them to the Calla flickr pool, and don't worry if you have no photo editing skills - raw snapshots are good too!

I'm kicking off Versastyle with a review of the style that's been glued to my head for a week now.

I was instantly enamoured with the new
Pink Clove hair, it was literally love at first sight when I put this style on. Ponytails are always fashionable, partly because there's so many different ways to wear them. They can be casually messy, classy 'n' sleek or even punky-kitsch.

I'm always pining for new ponies, and the cute but Pink Clove hairstyle is just the fix I needed this month. Its got serious attitude, but it's still girly and *totally* me.

The back view of Pink Clove is squealworthy!

I needed an outfit to complement my new "hair crack", and luckily I didn't have to look very far. Last week I saw a new release from Nyte'n'Day which I had to have, an incredibly chic dress over leggings which I think matches the attitude of the hair perfectly. Add a pair of Maitreya's finest footwear in a matching colour and something shiny from Eolande's, et voilá!

Yep, I look stoned in the last pose. I'm high on hair!

I like to wear Calla hair when I want to look like a cheap whore.
