Christmas Traditions


I took this photo for the Model's Workshop International Holiday Photo Contest.  The United States is such a melting pot of traditions from around the world.  What traditions did I have that were uniquely US?  Most of my traditions are Polish, Russian, German, and Irish.  Living in the southwestern part of the US there is a tradition I celebrate that is unique to this area, luminarias. 

Traditionally, luminarias are made from brown paper bags weighted down with sand and illuminated from within by a lit candle.  The luminarias are set out and lit on Christmas Eve.  The hope among Roman Catholics is that the lights will guide the spirit of the Christ child to one's home.

I have myself playing the flute because the flute is a large part of my life and the holidays.  I perform with various groups in different venues during the holiday season.  I always play for Christmas Eve Mass.

Ice Goddess

She is Glace; the Ice Goddess.  She is the daughter of Mer the God of the Seas and Neige the Goddess of Snow.  She has her mother's porcelain beauty and her father's tumultuous temper.  She walks with an attitude, but with the looks of a temptress.  She should be feared, yet worshiped.  Cross her path and you may find yourself turned into an ice sculpture or blasted by an ice storm; freezing everything in her wake. Yet with her beauty and look of purity, she sometimes seduces others to do her bidding.

Esther Noriega Inspired Gown




I created this dress for the Versus Casting Call.  Applicants must create a styling based on Esther Noriega's new and impressive spring/summer collection. While viewing her collection, I immediately fell in love with her gold leaves and coral gown. 

So, the search was on.  I took the coral skirt from VLC's dress Sophia.  I took the gold leaves from CHAMPAGNE!sparkling couture's Nude Beauty - Formal MVW14 Puerto Rico.  The front leaves only covered the breasts, so I moved the back leaves to the front to cover the midriff.  There was still too much skin showing.  Because these parts were no copy and no mod, I had to buy another dress to get another set.  I placed the second set to get better coverage, but still too much skin showing.  Because of the contour of the pieces, buying another set would not have work. Think, think, think.  How can I get better coverage.  Then it hit me, a strapless top from another dress or a corset from lingerie.  So, I started trying on everything gold in my inventory.  Not too far down the list, I found the perfect top; the top from the BaileeRose Winter Ballgown by Heth Haute Couture. 

Whoosh, with the hard part done, it was time for the fun part; accessorizing.  First was hair.  I noticed that all the models had a loose updo.  To match the hair style of the models, I went with ARGrace's Yui in Classy Brown.  Next, was looking for jewelry.  I found the Autumn Leaves collection in gold by Krystal.  The collections has a necklace, earrings, and a crown.  I didn't think a crow was appropriate for this dress, so I turned it so that it looked like a headband.  I then added the Precious Rose Ring in gold by Krystal; since it was so close in style to the Autumn Leaves collection.  To polish off the look, I added Laria Gold high heeled sandals by Carrie's.

I also noticed that this fashion show had a musical theme.  There were string players providing live music.  All of the models had either a bass clef earring, treble clef earring, or a musical staff necklace.  To incorporate the musical theme, I decided to play the violin.

For the background, I wanted to incorporate the music theme and color palette of her collection; coral, turquoise, gold, red, and white.  I was lucky to find this great background of musical notes in turquoise, coral, and gold on a white background.

Outrageous Holiday Themed Sweater


When I heard about this challenge, I immediately thought about someone falling while ice skating.  I immediately started digging through my inventory to see what I could find.  It is amazing what things I have gotten over the years from hunts.  I found this untraditional Christmas sweater with a skull and cross bones wearing a Santa hat from Citrus.  I paired it with these great leather looking black leggings from Marquesse.  The Candy Cane Murder Antlers with a skull and skeleton hand are from none other than REDRUM.  To complete the look are ice skates from LUZ.  I found this wonderful pose on the marketplace; Falling Back by [E3D] Diorama.  I found this perfect facial expression in the Photo Studio Pro Emote HUD by SLDomina.

Elegant Chic


Upon hearing elegant chic, an image of a fitted black suit and pearls popped into my mind.  I found this great fitted suit Adele at PurpleMoon.  I added a subtle beige-gold top Jordan by Tori's Style. I went with the Lazuri Classic Pearls; which has a HUD that allowed me to match the color of some of the pearls to the Jordan top.  I polished off the look with short classic styled hair 51 by Dura in Dark Brown; a black clutch purse by Duh!; and Nevada black pumps by %.:EC:.

Street Style


Upon doing research into this style, I found a great article by Harper's Bazaar; The Top 8 Street Style Trends:  Spring 2015.  Those trends were:  Fringe; Platform Bottom Shoes; Overalls; Smartphones; Ponchos; the color red; Shirt Dress; and Track Shoes.  As with any challenge or casting call, I started searching through my inventory to see what I had that fit these trends and would work together.  The first thing I found were these great black tassel boots by V-Twins.  The next thing I found was this great poncho by Asteria Creations.  Now to find a pair of pants that will fit inside the boots.  I got lucky with a unisex pair of leather pants by DemotiK.  Since red was the color, I went looking for a red shirt and accessories.  I found the Goth T-shirt by JayGee fit perfect and was the perfect length.  Every street outfit needs sunglass.  I found these Summer Chic Sunglasses by Dressed By Lexi.  I found the these GaGa Bangles by Fierce to match the hardware of the purse.  I had to go to the marketplace to find some of the accessories.  I found this great red Jan Croc Shoulder Bag by Digit Studios and red smartphone.

Fantasy Angel



I am such a tradionalist.  When I heard about the Fantasy Angel casting call, I immediately thought of the angel in white with the soft fluffy white wings, and billowing white gown.  But the Fantasy Angels want beautiful, elegant, and sexy.  One designer came to mind that puts all three of those elements into her work; Carrie Bridger of Carrie's Lingerie.  I was extremely lucky.  Her October Limited Edition was Mijn engel; a beautiful white sexy angel outfit.  This outfit comes with many mix and match pieces to great your angelic angel to your sultry angel.  It comes with:  white lace corset with and with out white panel (sheer and solid), white lace topped stockings, white lace thong panties, white lace gloves, white glowing blowing long skirt with front slit from floor to waist, full make up, large white fluffy feather wings, and a glowing hallow.  This outfit works on traditional avatars and has the Omega applier HUD.  Matching Slink high heels and booties were available separately.  I completed the look with Carrie's Wedding Elisabeth Shoes and Zuri's Czarina Peacock Necklace in Diamond-White.

Beachwear from Amarelo Manga.  Amarelo Manga has a large selection of beachwear; from bikinis to one piece swimsuits.  There is also a wide selection of accessories:  sunglasses, sandals, and beach bags.  My favorite suit is Lyris. This once piece swimsuit has cut out sides with a solid royal blue bottom.  The patterned halter crisscross top is most flattering.  I chose the Gladiator Sandal "Verano".  This high blocked heel sandal comes with a color changing HUD.  No beachwear ensemble would be complete unless there are sunglasses. I chose the High Summer Sunglasses.  With its round shaped lenses and gold frame, these sunglasses would look great on anyone.  The bonus is this pair of sunglass come with a lens color changing HUD.
