Duchess of the Jungle
I just learned that I am one of the two July Flickr Photo winners for Collisions! How cool is that! Collisions makes this henna tattoo I am wearing, Lalita Chameli Tattoo. It is one of my favorite tattoos because the design seems to flow and evolve in just the right places adding a delicate touch to even the harshest warrior princess * grins * The outfit by The Plastik are the other creative factors in the image…. and since I have purchased another in white, more will come. Obviously more will come from Collisions as well…. blogging is terribly expensive so the store credit I just won totally rocks my socks…. or in this case tattoo! The image was taken while experimenting with WL and shadow settings… I still have a long way to go to match much of the awesomeness I see on Flickr…. but the challenge is half the fun (insert groaning graphics card here!) One day grasshopper…. one day. * smiles *

Tank Girl
“Tank Girl” ranks relatively high on my list of favorite cult movies…. well if I actually had a list it would I should say. I originally watched the movie to see Iggy Pop and Ice-T but soon fell in love with the adorable Lori Petty who plays Rebecca/Tank Girl. I entered this image in the Hair Fair Photo Contest, Movies that Inspire Me. Who wouldn’t be inspired by a defiant girl who lives in a tank, hangs out with genetically modified supersoldiers spliced with kangaroo DNA, dates a mutant named Booga and fights to save the Earth’s water supply…. just sayin’

Bjork’s Army of Me from the Tank Girl Soundtrack:
Give Peace a Chance
Phoebe has released her studded mesh skirt with a new hud that produces not one… not two…. but eight!! stars and stripes patterns for the good ole’ USA. What I love about this skirt is that the patterns were carefully thought out and executed yielding 8 skirts that have the perfect balance between patriotism and fashion. So for July 4th wear a skirt that screams “style” rather than “costume” and be the trendsetter at the Independence Day party! The skirt and flower ring are available at the Black Market which ends on July 13.
I tried a number of tops with the high waisted skirt and found The Plastik to have the best pairing. The Plastik, known for incredible patterns and meticulously designed original clothing items, has so many pattern and color choices your only problem will be deciding which one to click on! Since I was going with the star theme I chose the Naval pattern, however there are so many choices that fit well with the color schemes for Phoebe’s skirt.
A better look at the jewelry and fingernails…..and a good excuse to use this super cute pose by Del May! Speaking of poses, the top pose created by the incredibly talented pose makers at F*cking Ninjas was originally designed to be used with a katana (included with pose,) however with the Slink “Victory” hands it became the perfect peaceful vehicle…. how ironic. LOL
Give Peace A Chance.

Nothing Gold Can Stay
The Fantasy Faire ends today and is marked by overwhelming success. Over 9 million lindens were raised for Relay for Life! If you participated then give yourself a giant pat on the back… we did good! * grins * Parting is such sweet sorrow…….
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Welcome to the Jungle
The 2013 Fantasy Faire has officially kicked off and there is no shortage of fantasy fashions, items, poses, accessories and landscapes on the grid today! This unbelievable effort of combined talents has given us not one, but 10 virtual showrooms to gather the coolest, most up-to-date fantasy creations we can get our mystical hands on… all the while supporting the American Cancer Society’s vision of a world without cancer!
This event really touches my heart. I lost my beautiful brother, David, to lung cancer. I cannot even begin to describe how this horrible disease changed my life, but I can tell you that I feel as though part of my soul was ripped out the day David died. So I am posting my Fantasy Faire images in honor of my brother David. My smile. My heart. And my soul. Namaste. They may not have been created by the most talented photographer in Second Life…. but they have been created with a love so strong and pure…. they could only send out waves of positive energy to those who need it most.
Conjure the Magic! Finish the Fight!
I am kicking off the event with one of the Feature Creators of Fantasy Faire, F*cking Ninjas! These mad girls have been burning the midnight oil for the last few weeks conjuring up exclusive poses for this event and I can tell you without hesitation they are phenomenal! The above pose, Welcome to the Jungle, comes with the spear prop and is just one of the many exclusive poses I plan to share this week.
So head over to Ravenshard, jump on the book shelves and check out their Ninja skills!
The Facial Piercings in the above image are from designer Pheobe. The piercings are available until Suday at Acid Lily Gallery for 50L!!! The detail on the piercings is incredible and the hud not only lets you choose metals and gems but also allows you to add shadows for a more realistic look! They rock!
