Thanking Nile Karas of FLOWERDREAMS
I have to say Thank You to Nile, she has been and still is a wonderful and caring friend. Her creations so artfully crafted and so feminine, Once upon a time SL was full of places to go where a gown was a necessity, always staing please wear formal.
Not so much now and in some ways its a little sad that SL is merging so closely to RL Do I really want to look like the CHAV in the town centres (no thanks), the magic and fantasy lessens. FLOWERDREAMS Gowns are truly fantasy and therefore hold a touch of magic, One of my all time faves is the Princess Turandot gown it is so pretty. So Thank You Nile for keeping a little Magic in SL.

As I stated on Flickr, If your gonna wear something Fabulous, then do it Fabulously, if not, then dont bother to wear it.
Just recently I have been kindly sent some items to blog from LUSH*Limited by Xi Zane, and I really am not that mad on mesh, too much of anything is not brilliant, and never one to run with the pack, I have avoided it if at all possible, but Xi sent these and yes there are the same styles with other creators bla bla, and yes some are really nice, But it was the textures that gave LUSH the edge for me, and her color pallette.
So for once I am not moaning about mesh, I am liking it, lol, But seriously if you are buying mesh, check out the textures, cos bad textures make for bad mesh. at least Xi got it right, I love this new range.
LOL these are shoes By BSD Design studio and me not in much else ok cheeky shoes called for a cheeky shot, and BabyChampagne Sass is starting to make noises in the shoe world with her pretty neat shoes, yep I am shoe freak in rl and sl, heaven knows why I dont wear the darn things hahaha, and I love Dogs in sl and Rl too xox
This is truly one of my all time fave shots, and this Gown by Vivien emerald of DESIR’ was a group gift, she really does spoil her group members, and I just fell in love with this, and yes she is a personal friend and yes one could say I am biased towards my friends, but I really am not, and where credit is due its due, She is a very talented young designer, and I wish her a wonderful future with her store, she works hard and really does some wonderful and inspiring Creations.
TRYST my first main build by myself, it was a bit of a daunting task I had always been the Ideas Person, I am not a skilled builder, I just see the build, but sick of others taking credit for my work, I decided this one would be mine in total, gosh what a learning curve.
I love this shot because I got to do the drama Diva, in it, lol, That dress from VeroModero just called for this type of photo, and I love Bouquet Babii of Vero Modero, she is always so nice to talk to.
A Fave it had to be, I was so honored, when Zibska did a Xia dress, I took loadssss of shots,, but this was my fave. and if you want wild and wonderful for jewelry , make up, and original wear, then Zibska has to be one of the best places I know in SL.
A fave shot, Wearing a Top hat and Bovver Boots is not generally advised with a couture gown, but fortunately for me, the Designer Loved it, but then again, I love the Designer, she is a pretty amazing lady who I met long beforeI entered the Modelling world, Her gowns are some of the most wonderful to be found In Second life, and Nile Karas herself is one of the nicest People you could ever wish to meet.
one of my all time fave shots, this was a comp entry for a comp that never happened, there are a lot of those in Second Life, beware, they get you to buy stuff, then the comp dies a death, unlike RL there is no come back or refund on money you may have spent.
I hate Blogging
Oh godd that sounds bad, I hate Blogging, but in all honesty, I do, its sooo boring, ok I get to style some pretty amazing items, but I just hateeee blogging.
I truly am not a lets write drivel person, I see some blogs, that are pretty Good, the ones I follow are cool, but some jeeeeeeeeezzzuz forgive me for my sins, but pleeeeaseeeeeeeeee.
Theyre that sweet you could throw up after reading. what makes them even funnier is the fact that the writers are not in the least sweet, a couple of them are the most vindictive and vilest people one would never wish to meet.
Theyre the ones who wouldnt spit on you if you were on fire, but are all over you if they think it may just forward their positioning in a higher circle. aaaaaaaaaah fogive me for my observations.
People say well you have a blog, yep this is called a blog and yet its more of a Diary for me, ok I throw odd blog posts in, cos its expected, and yes in a way its a part of my journey through the SL fashion and Model world.
Talking of which, what on earth is going on in the model and fashion world, with the advent of mesh I am seeing some atrocities that really shouldnt leave the drawing board.
Then add to that a sloppy wannabe model, who cant be assed to check if one alpha has removed another while dressing, jeez I went to one event the other evening, and I am such a sod, I cam people checking lol, and the amount of bare asses and backs showing thro mesh clothes hahahahaha, was fabulous, theyre all standing there in those silly affected poses they use, with bare bits hanging out at one of the supposedly prestigious events.
Ohh god forgive my irreverence.
But seriously if you stood in that position for more than 2 mins you would be in hospital with spinal issues for weeks hahahaha. og now I have to get some shots of the poses and do an irreverent photo shoot.
I do wonder someitimes if their viewer is showing a different view than mine, truly I do.
Well I am declaring this blog a non blog, its a diary, so now I guess I will have to do another blog, that is just blog and then a blog to blog that, omg this could go on and on .
Now I am starting to write drivel for the sake of it, so signing off,
If anyone is mad enough to read this
My friend, you have to be as mad as me, have a fabulous Day,
Much Love

“iGnavi by Buffy Holfe
I Dont often sneek out from my sim in Second Life, due to alwaysss being busy, either taking shots of fashions sent to me by wonderful Designers or Playing round at building, Tryst is ever evolving, and so often I just lose time being lost in attempting new things.
However when I saw that Buffy Holfe, had an Art installation going on I had to sneek out to take a peek, Buffy does some Fabulous Artwork that I follow on Flicr, so this was a new thing for me to check out.
I arrived at a super reception area, and LOL it even had a pink catwalk, just kiddin, but if its a long walkway its a runway to me hahah.
seeeeeeee LOL, ok from here we go through a wonderful door into a pink entrance, Now I am not a lover of pink and not of abstract art in general, but this pink entrance kind of fascinated me.
Dont ask I still dont figure why, it just did.
from through that dark entrance I found myself in this amazing space with artwork of Buffy about to hit me on the head with a huge wand,
and words keading my way,
I really was fascinated, it was like walking through a magical world and I half expected to meet the Tin Man at some point, after camming round and watching all the art flying through me and past me I went foreward again and entered;-
The MAGICAL WORLD of BUFFY HOLFE and “i Gnavi.

I spent an hour or more, just enjoying this, its full of light and just color, I know people rave about certain artists on SL but I am personally sick of depressing, darkness, there is enough of that in real life, for me this was just so refreshing to see.
Buffy you are a STAR.
Thankyou for sharing ,
Much Love

Inspirations
As a lover of music, I often find that a song or melody will inspire a shot or outfit, I have music throughout the day, loving psychill, classical some rock, and just love songs with message and meaning, I kinda of have a love hate relationship with you tube, I have found so much music I amy never have heard, but those damnnn adverts drive me nuts.
This shot was inspired by a super sound I was listening to called sleeper in metropolis, by Anne Clark a blend of electronic music and poetry
Wearing

Hair by KMadd
Jacket Riccielli.
one of my very first shots as a new model,

According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), a woman in the United States is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes, and every year approximately 50,000 die from this disease.
We are back!
PRETTY BALD IN PINK Photo Campaign is a charity project aimed to promote knowledge and support for cancer victims, families and everyone affected by this disease. Like last year, the idea is not to raise money, but to raise conscience and awareness about a subject that concern us all, to some more direct than to others.
Images will be posted on the PBIP blog, flickr and other media.
THANKYOU

just WORDS
There are so many blogs out there, all full of words, words of wisdom, words of inspiration Blogging is kind of like a diary, we put things in that are relevant to the day,
As a Model in SL , mine will often be a creation that I am wearing, hoping that the information I give will help another to style and buy that outfit.
But also I often sneeek in art shots, and really I spend far to much time on this computer when I should be doing other things.
Often seen are quotes by the famous and wise, words to aspire to, a few may even manage to live up to the words they choose, but I doubt it.
Profiles in Second life are a great source of entertainment, Often they contain these quotes, yet when you actually talk to the person bearing the words, Its actually frightening.
They could no sooner live up to those words than shoot themselves in the foot.
I am always very wary of people with quotes of wisdom and drops of poison in there profiles now.
As a species, we are so lucky to have the ability of words, yet we abuse them daily, theyre powerful little things, its so easy to make someone feel very Good, or very very bad about themselves with just a word.
For me, my motto is if I have made one person smile in a day, then it has been a very Good Day.
Use your words wisely, I always try to.
Have a beautiful day,
Much Love
