Wow, way back at the beginning of January Imp Merlin told me to check out Lippert 160, 111, 171. In Lippert you'll find one of the places where you can obtain a number of the Free Fandom Project avatars and accessories based on characters from movies, television shows, and books. I took a picture of a very small selection of the outfits I found at the original Lippert coordinates and another distribution center at the Boxed Heroes Main Shop. The article written in the Second Life Herald about the Free Fandom Project listed additional distribution sites if you scroll to the very bottom of their piece. (All $0)
The Hermine Granger outfit did not include hair so I used the freebie ($1) Lily hair from ETD. I also added hair and shoes to the Galaxy Quest outfit: hair- Lisa II (sale ends tomorrow! $25) ETD and shoes- Plum Diamante Platform Shoe by Chrissy Ambrose were part of a discontinued freebie that was available at Phat Cat's Jazzy Blue Lounge.
So if you haven't, yet... go check out the Free Fandom Project!

Above an Indie Designer Store Dies a Big Time Talent!!!
Above the ever so beautiful indie designer boutique Nanette Lepore, died a big time talent Heath Ledger mid day yesterday as we all know by now. My heart goes out to his family for the tragedy whatever it be addiction,suicide,or just plain accidental death. But let us not forget that at the very most Heath Ledger got to live a life a billion people will only dream about all by the time he was 28. He managed to make a handful of movie hits, marry a starlet and make a baby all the while living a dream and making it happen. I don't believe most of us want to die an early death, but if we do I hope a day doesn't go by that I didn't enjoy to the fullest. RIP Heath you're in Heaven now and hopefully its the real big time more imaginable than any lifetime.

Even Faeries Get the Blues........
Unfortunately it's sad, but true...........
Fortunately for us, when fairies get the blues there's a nice skin out there thanks to Faerie Hax that let's us express ourselves. ($0)
Here's the lowdown on the look so you to may achieve it: Flexified Butterfly Wings from Toya can be found on the LicoLico Sim. ($1) The silks are a combination of two free silks offered at Collar Me Sexy both $0. The hair is from Frangipani Hair and cost $1. (There are now 4 -$1 fat packs of hair offered here along with 60 minute camping for hair.) The eyes are from the Basic Eye Megapack found on the freebie wall at the NEW TALISMAN store located on the Talisman Sim. (Can you tell I'm excited that they're back.) I also used the Mixed Butterfly Emitter both are priced $0 on the Freebie wall that includes tons of stuff for $0-$1. And one last picture (zzzzzzz) for those who get confused by backgrounds and WindLight.

She's a Lady
There are tons of styles available in sl, but not all measure up to the modest standards a lady must uphold. If you're looking for some direction on how to find inexpensive lady like clothing I hope the following suggestions help out.

A variety of skins can be used and Another Skins are all offered for $0 and come in a variety of skin tones suitable for most anyone. You can even download the Another Skin pdfs and modify the skins if you'd like here. If you're looking for striking red lips might I suggest the $1 Jezbel skins from Soda.

(Skin: Another Skin, Dress: Ingenue, Hair: Marlys,
Gloves: TAP, Jewelry: Sh*t Happens, Shoes: SKG Shoes)
Two hairs that particularly inspire the kittenish vibe are offered at Marlys for $1 each: Leaf's Trajectory and and Tatyana Take Away. The Retro Betty Pillbox Hat with hair can be found at SoulFire for $1. Gurlywood has one hair for $0 found in the clearance section, Season, that is the cutest little bun. There are also a number of hairstyles offer for $1 at the Gurl 6 Hair store. If unrefined and edgy is more your style then perhaps trying a short style like the Beginning Hair from Find Ash is more your style. $0

(Skin: Another Skin, Dress: <3 Cupcakes, Jewelry: Sh*t Happens,
Gloves:Moon Cat, Shoes: SKG Shoes)

(Skin: Another Skin, Hair: Find Ash, Dress:Ivalde,
Shoes: She's so Unusual, Hat,Corsage & Gloves: MoonCat)

(Hairs: Gurl 6 & Marlys, Underwear: Ingenue & Steamstress,
Skin: Another Skin, Shoes: SKG Shoes, Hat: MoonCat)
(Dress: Bossa Nova, Skin: Soda, Hair & Hat: SoulFire,
Gloves: TAP, Jewelry: Sh*t Happens, Shoes: SKG Shoes)

Clothing can be found at a variety of places, but the following stores have graceful options that will definetly be a hit. Bossa Nova offers the Lucia dress in a black and white for $0. Ivalde has a section upstairs 'Almost Free Stuff' with outfits and shirts ranging from $0-$1. Less than three Cupcake has 3 dresses near the front entrance; two are especially suited for the refined lady. $0 Ingenue offers a variety of clothing (including dresses) for between $1 and $0. A Free Top that is especially sweet can be found at Kurotsubaki $0. The Steamstress offers a variety of no transfer goods; mostly steampunk inspired, but all very classic in inspiration. There is a wall of freebies which include: Shirt, pants and shirt set, underwear set, jacket and hat. There is also a tache (moustache) over by the accessories. And at the time of writing there is also a underwear set Patience which is available for $0 located on one of the building supports. Tete a Pied (TAP) has two goodies on their train one is a suit: the other is a pair of gloves (in 3 lengths) essential for the proper lady$0.
(Skin: Another Skin, Hair: Find Ash, Dress:Ivalde,
Shoes: She's so Unusual, Hat,Corsage & Gloves: MoonCat)
SKGShoes has 6 pairs of shoes: 3 white, 3 blue $1 each- these are a great height and the the open toed and peep toed styles are reminiscent of times when a lady was a lady. Besides offering 4 boxes of shoes for $1 each She's So Unusual Shoes offers a very nice animation overide for $1 located on the wall above the $1 shoes.
(Hairs: Gurl 6 & Marlys, Underwear: Ingenue & Steamstress,
Skin: Another Skin, Shoes: SKG Shoes, Hat: MoonCat)
Accessories can be found in a variety of places, but the two following places have a lot more to offer than just the few pieces I used here. Sh*t Happens has a nice Freebie Accessories $0 which includes a divine colorable pearl necklace among many other extras. MoonCat has a lot of freebies and dollarbies, but what will be of special intrest to any refined lady is the mini hat, mari brooch, and leather gloves all $0.
I hope you find these suggestions helpful in your search for lady like styles in sl. =) On a side note all the skirts seemed not to be tinted gray. If you make prim attachments for dresses they often times will NOT match the shirt of glitchpants (non-prim pieces) unless the attachments are tinted the default lightest shade of gray. So please tint your prim pieces gray or at the very least make ALL your prim pieces MODIFY!
