Best Of SL - caLLie & KittyCatS! - meow?

a few years ago, i was asked to be on the BOSL mag cover.  i did the cover,  blowing a kiss with one as i held a pistol in my other hand, why? who knows. in the spread i also wore my kitty ears & tail... why? it seemed fun. i enjoyed shooting for that issue... i started in SL as a photographer, so it's always fun to revisit that.

2 years later, i never thought i'd be on the cover of BOSL again, but this time i got be on it holding a cat who was holding my tiara... she made SURE she was the princess. :) 

i really enjoyed working with persia bravin on the article, what a fabulous lady! we got to talk about SL & fashion, and KittyCatS!  As some of you know, besides doing the caLLie cLine brand, i am also doing a new (well year old now) project called KittyCatS! which are little pet cats which can have babies and are really fun to interact with, and little bundles of fur joy! :) I've been doing that pretty much full time in SL for a year, cutting back quite a bit on clothing, consulting and other things... but i do love it very much :) our core team is made up of Equinox Pinion, Dennis Lagan and moi.

KittyCatS team meeting... callie, equinox, Kittycats (in his outfit)

it was a bit challenging to get back into "photography" and it was a bit intimidating for me. SL has come so far since i first started shooting and it took a bit to get the feel again.

here are a few of the inside shots... and i hope you'll pick up the mag or read it online if you have time. :)

here is a fun photo i really liked putting together... the kitties were playing 'let's see if callie can catch fish in her mouth!"

an assortment of our normal cats & special edition cats playing with me 

this is in my garden with some of my Love Leopard Collection Cats..

 the chair above is from Adorkable... and it's modded a bit for the shoot. it's a GREAT chair!!!! i really love her stuff.


below is the opening shot for the mag article... i'm wearing my fave GOS boots, a pair of tres blah shorts, a top i picked up a a little shop, lara hurley skin, cheLLe blue eyeliner (top) some lashes, a tiara &  from earrings earthstones, and some of my own jewelry. the pose is from the artilleri lawn chair (moved the chair away) oooh i forgot... my fun "tram" hair too :) LOVE it!

with my princess kitty... she let me have the tiara back

well that's all for now, KittyCatS! will be at Fashion For Life which opens on the 10th of March, and it's really exciting to be able to participate in a cause which touches so many lives. i'm honored. my good friend (and partner for the fashion blogger group) Harper Beresford has been heading it up and has done just a fabulous job, make sure to check it out, there are tons of great designers all giving their time and talents to help in fighting the battle of cancer. a generous community to be sure.

i will try to blog more soon!

Felines & Fashion & Fun

I've not posted for a while... I've been uber busy and having a lot of fun creating different things. The platinum hunt was a lot of fun and this first photo is of one of the items from Adorkable Poses, I really love it! It has a bunch of fun poses, is MOD, and was a lot of fun to play with. I got my little cat to jump up for the shot :)

My little Smokey Cat  poses with me

This week we released our 1.09 update and extension which included 2 fun new features. One is "Pet & Play" where you OR anyone who wants to can interact and pet your KittyCat! Adorkable Peapod worked with us creating great animations with so many variations! So now you can relax, pamper or spoil any KittyCat you see just with ONE click. (no need to swap ownership)

the KittyCatS just love it so far and so do I. I find myself working while being in the "relax" mode with my cat. (seen below)

2 of my KittyCatS and me relaxing 

 

Here is one more shot... this little guy has NO problem being pampered as you can see :)

Spoiled much?

If you'd like to try Petting for yourself, you can tp into the KittyCatS! main store and in the entrance these same 2 cats are on this same couch!  just right click and hit "pet" or "sit" (for some viewers)  and Enjoy!

I'm working on some fun KittyCatS stuff for the holidays and also, some stuff for caLLie cLine and my pumpkin patch will be out VERY soon too :) and my Cat-o-Lanterns :)

Hope you all are well as fall starts.

xoxo,

Callie

Hey fashionistas.... COMIC CONTEST.... 18K in cash prizes!

KittyCatS! is having a "comic-cats" contest and we'd love to open it up to anyone who is clever, creative and would have fun doing it :) We love what the fashion community as come up with thus far in their photos and some for SURE almost beg for some humorous captions :)

You don't have to own a KittyCat to enter, just have one in your comic. :)

here is the flyer for it and you can get the complete rules by clicking the poster in our store lobby on the KittyCatS sim.

So... if you are so inclined.... we can't WAIT to see what you come up with :)

*cat shown is a KittyCatS Genesis "Coco" cat with Meadow eyes. He's available for photo shoots :)

Meow!!! Give me platinum please!

KittyCatS! is excitedly participating in the platinum hunt :) Our cats wanted us to make a special collar for them so... of course we did. (we know who the real bosses are) Along with their collar in the gift box are "owners" collars... that match theirs. (they are quite generous and like their owners to have little gifts too)

anyway... these work on a KittyCatS! cat, (the collar for the cat) but the rest can be used by anyone... if you want  more info on KittyCatS! you can check out our inworld group KittyCatS Addicts or visit the KittyCatS! sim and take a look at the kitties roaming the place.

a collection of white russian cats with platinum eyes (click to enlarge)

if you've not heard of KittyCatS they are a pet that you can cuddle (they jump into your arms), play with, (they fetch a ball you throw for them) pose for uber cute photos, and even breed to make baby kittens! If you wish to know more you can check out our website too... :)

enjoy the hunt.... oh the hint is... behind the lobby is your lucky fortune

good luck!

xoxo,
callie
