Seen On The Scene: "Styling Challenge #3" by Mister Virtual World

Our third styling challenge for the Mr. Virtual World competition was today, and we heated up the runway with our sexiest swimwear!  I was able to grab some snapshots of a couple of the Misters backstage before the show started, and I must admit...they all look quite yummy!  =P

Seen On The Scene: "Dolce & Gabbana" by Mr. Virtual World

Today was our first styling challenge for Mr. Virtual World...a Dolce & Gabbana themed runway show! I must admit, everyone looked absolutely stunning in their D&G inspired outfits.  I also had my interview with the judges this morning, which was one of the most pleasant experiences of my Second Life to date.  Words can not express how much I admire Frolic for his honest criticism, tempered with praise where it's due.  Kay is a total sweetheart, Edi is hilarious, BlackBarbie is a paragon of patience, and Persia (who I had the pleasure of meeting for the first time today) is positively eloquent (as one would expect from the Copy Editor of the BOSL).  I can't wait to see what's in store for me as the competition continues!

The Road To MVW: Audition

So I didn't make it into the first round of auditions, but I'm so happy for a couple of my very dear friends who were selected as Mister Virtual World finalists...gratz to Brendan Macarthur, Daniele Eberhardt, and Matteo Bettencourt!  For my first application, I kind of sold out and went very plain, very boy next door, very much NOT me.  For my second application, I figured "screw it," and did what I do best...avant garde with a fantasy flair.  Apparently it worked, because I made it in to the second round of castings, which was today.  I'm not sure what the results will be, but I had a blast styling the outfit below for my audition.  Wish me luck!

UPDATE:  I'M INNNNNNNNNN!!!  YOU'RE LOOKING AT MR. ISRAEL 2011!

The Road To MVW: Application

A week ago today Frolic Mills sent out the first notice for Mr. Virtual World 2011...an all call for headshots from potential MVW candidates.  To me, MVW is the competition to end all male modeling competitions, and it would be such an honor to be chosen to compete as a finalist this year.  My avi has a very unique, boyish look, which may work for me or against me...I'm not really sure.  I guess we'll see!  My headshot was done by the lovely and talented Talyia Tarber, featuring one of the suits from last week's Claim The Fame.  Wish me luck!

The Bleeding Edge: "Caliente" & "Imperial" by Champagne, "Irish Eyes" & "Blue Victory" by Garded Secret

Sorry I'm a bit late with these posts, but MVW Modeling Academy graduation was this weekend, and it owned my soul for 3 days straight, lol.  Class with Frolic Mills was a blast though, and I graduated!  However, I digress...back to Champagne and Garded Secret.  I have several favorite designers in SL, each specializing in a different area.  yula Finesmith is my favorite jewelry designer, Arisia Ashmoot is my favorite pose designer, and dianny3636 Aeon is my favorite hair designer.  Fortunately for me, my favorite cosmetics and clothes designers have teamed up to release products that compliment each other perfectly.  YAY for Talyia Tarber and Enzo Champagne!  Below are two of the latest coordinated releases for men:  "Caliente" by Champagne paired with "Irish Eyes" by Garded Secret,  and "Imperial" by Champagne paired with "Blue Victory" by Garded Secret.  Enjoy!
