face of SL "L'OreaL" news...

hi everyone... i sorta kept quiet during the adventure of being chosen to be one of the 20 finalists in the "SL face of L'Oreal Paris" event for a few reasons, and the biggest was... it's just been a hectic time!

Now that it's over and the lovely winner was announced, i wanted to tell a bit about what it was like, what i wore, and a lot of the other questions i've gotten im's about!

first off, here's a photo i took of isabella sampaio who was the winner!!!! she was as sweet as could be and very gracious to let me take my photo with her too!!! :)




ok so then, here's a picture of my 3 outfits... we had to wear a formal, a swimwear, and a "glamorous casual" outfit... and here's what i put together... with the help of my good friend ally geer and my SL sissy and bizzie partner, kiana dulce... i had NO clue how to use "poses" in a "huddle", and ally helped so much with that, and took me hair shopping... and so ok..

1. my formal: a gown by Shiryu Musashi, and my jewelry is from "sue stonebender's" estate collection, my hair, an ETD updo... and skin, nevermore hybrid 2 (custom colors)

2. my 'swimwear' is my own unreleased signature ensemble, (coming soon!) including the jewelry and shoes made by jacal ennui, and hair by naughty, skin, nevermore hybrid 2.

3. my "casual" was, my signature jeans in black, my new signature mules (coming soon), the "revolution femme" jacket my shiryu musashi, a leia camosole by camilla yourke and a lace bra by naughty designs... pearls by "muse", cailiah lyon, updo from ETD, and the limited "dreams of a better world" purse by shiny things. (no longer available)



so, next is my score for my 'swimwear' showing, just for fun, there was a score board after each run, and it was cool to see them, and a bit scary too... oh for my first run in "casual" i got a "0", "9" and "8" (yes a "0" not a typo) then you can see my swimwear score, and for my formal i received a "8", "6" and "6" but also, this was judged not just on what we wore but our bio's too. ok so here's the score pic...



i crashed after my swim suit showing and it took about 20 minutes to get back in SL and to the sim!!! it was CRAZY and scary... amazingly with 80 people on the sim there was virtually NO lag, and it was really an exciting, and exhausting time!

all the girls were so cool and honestly, there was this very cool feeling in the air of being part of something really special. one would think there would be a bunch of catty drama, and if there was, i surely didn't know about it, everyone was supportive, helpful, worrying about each other and i think after all the work that was put into this event, for me anyway, it just seemed that who ever won, it was an exciting thing cuz, this was NOT easy and my hat goes off to EVERYONE who participated... and gave so much of themselves.

oh a cool thing is, we were told after by L'Oreal that we ALL would get a "basket" of makeup, yay!!! and they were so happy with the event as honestly, it was so classy, fun and just went off almost perfectly...

ok then after, we went up to meet the L'Oreal people for a bit, and here's my pics with bianca darling, who headed up the event with really, an amazing team of people who worked so hard and just oooozed with care and excitement and professionalism. i can say, i'm honored to have been a part of this event, and being one of 20 chosen from the 300 plus entries, is beyond cool!

if you want to read more than my babbling on, check out the aspire blog, 'cuz there you can see a LOT of photos of everyone during the event (we didn't dare take photos cuz of crashing)
and read more!!!

xoxo, caLLie





oh p.s. THANK YOU TO ALL MY CUSTOMERS WHO WERE SO SO SO KIND IN THEIR WELL WISHING FOR THIS EVENT!!! from your little gifts, notes, cards and all, i was very touched, and to boo, ki, ara, ally, and those of you who were so kind and helpful and supportive, thank you so much... i'm a lucky gal ;)

••• A STAR IS BORN!!! •••

OMG, when i was invited to get my very own STAR on the "walk of fame" i was just too excited to speak! i mean since i was a little girl, i loved walking down hollywood blvd. looking at all the stars..



i was even more shocked to see that fans had arrived to see me "get my star" even bianca darling, ceo of aspire magazine was there, and so many other notable people, can you pick them out??? ;)

the cement was ooie and gooie, wet and cold, i knew i'd have to shake a lot of hands afterwards so i so hoped it would wash off so i didn't get anyone dirty!

i was a bit tongue tied when i was asked to give a little speech afterwards!!! but thankfully, my little pal, aradia aridian, joined me on stage, you know she's the real star ;) look how cute she is!!!

speaking of stars... the first one to post on this blog which band sang this song... will win a 1K gift card... :)


"you can see all the stars as you walk along hollywood boulevard...
some that you recognize, some that you've hardly even heard of.."


it was great to have so many of my 'caL gaLs' there to celebrate... they always make me smile, and they are the best group of gaL's i know... i'm constantly honored and amazed at how kind and cool they are... and they are a LOT of fun!!!

so i just had to share with you all this very exciting event!!! thanks to all who made it possible, in this order, "mad" maddie camus, bianca darling, dick clark, arnold shwartzgigger, bariyln bonroe, oddree hipburn, ball booman, lucille doll, martyn ScoreSaysHe, francis pontiac copacola, and all the rest, you know who you are!!!

anyway, the jeans come with my lil prim "button" which i love and adds that bit of "detail" and "dimension" you can't really get any other way! some ppl love em, other's don't care, but i wear them with my jeans all the time.

hope ya like!

i've been so exicted by so much fun stuff happening in RL & SL and even the two have MET!!! but more on that laters ;) (shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

so for now, here's some "dark" jeans that i've had for a long time, i keep selling them via "im's" "caLLie i love your jeans, but do you have dark black???" response: "uh sure, want me to drop them on ya?"

SO I DELIVER TOO! hehe JUST KIDDING!

so here are my DARK black jeans... they are mod, so you can even give them a tint of grey if ya want them darker, but when you see them inworld i think you'll agree they are pretty dark.

new photo shoot for OMG calendar... and a GREAT new build!!!



i decided to share a few pics i took of a photo shoot i did earlier for OMG magazine's calendar. OMG is a cool mag in SL that is growing in readership and covers everthing from guns, gadgets, music, racing and FASHION!!! yay!

they are also the "official" magazine of pontiac's motorati island, and korbin king, the editor has done a fine job managing the mag as it grows.

i'm wearing shorts and a shirt from my new store "tomboy" soon to open!!! yay, we've been working on it for a long time, tuli asturias and i, with jackal ennui who made some awesome stuff, and even six kennedy, made us some cool hair exclusively for the "tomboy" brand...

oh and also, i shot these pics at the new tableau, which is a MUST visit!!! i was driving thru in my real cool old truck, and i needed some gas AND... the pumps weren't working!!! so i was hoping to see someone drive by who could perhaps give me a bit of fuel to make it back to caLLiefornia!!! no one ever came, so... my truck is still there somewhere!!!

the new tableau iis really a fun build, desert like, dry, tumble weeds too, and little surprizes around every corner... i met a customer there, who showed me a shop hidden in a "meat locker" and really, it's so cool... you must go see it... also, it's the home of paper couture which is looking GREAT!

ok so here are the pics, i think one of them will be in the calendar, i'll let ya know when i know more!

xoxo,

caLLie

oh P.S. keep those pics coming for the "lag, bugs and bork" contest!!!! winner announced next week!
