Channeling My Inner Snookie Featuring from FASHIONART Demise of Flight, *PC, EMPORIUM, *~Damesfly*~, FINESMITH, and Face Paint

I channeled my inner Snookie for this series of photos. Demise of Flight created the armchair with built in poses. It's available at FASHIONART Faire.

Additionally, *~Damesfly*~ hair, *PC, and EMPORIUM are available at the fair.

You'll see a set of jewelry designed by FINESMITH that looked as if it were created to accessorize the dress.

And new makeup from the newly reopoened Face Paint add to that Snookie feel I wanted. I even used a smaller shape in order to be more Snookie-ish!

I'm so thankful for each designer represented here:

Are You Talking To Me? -- Featuring ::Marshmallows::, Damned Dolls, *Pc* and [Mirror's Enigma]

Robert DeNiro made the line, "Are you talking to me?" famous in the 1976 movie Taxi Driver. Ever since he said it, it's been used as an urban way of saying "Excuse me?" or "Are you really dumb enough to be talking to me or about me?"

Lines like this take on a life of their own, long after the movie becomes passe and the actors die or change jobs. In DeNiro's case, this movie partially launched his acting career and following the character he played in Taxi Driver, he received more offers of roles than he would ever have time to play.

Ironically, I find that I receive some of the sweetest compliments on photographs I take when I'm in an urban mood; if I look like the next girl who might get cast in a role similar to DeNiro's, a girl who's fierce and takes care of herself. Yet the Caryn and the Karyn have yet to feel an affinity for that role.

It doesn't make me feel like a fake. I'm not faking the role of a model, and to me, a model should be able to put together any type of outfit, any type of style to meet any type of requirement a designer might have. If I wore a futuristic robe and played a robot, I would not worry that I was pretending to be something or someone I'm not. I'd just have fun doing it.

It's just much easier to style items that suit my personality, my reality, and my sense of self. I've never really had exposure to a more urban lifestyle. I kept to myself, stayed in the shadows, under the radar, often shy and very quiet, and hoped that no one noticed ANY style I chose to wear.

I do believe my bravado and self-esteem improve with time, and exposure on Second Life. I feel far more at peace with me than I ever have. I enjoy what I do. I love the camaraderie between me and others who have similar goals. I still don't see the "You talking to me?" girl in myself, but maybe with even more time and experience, I'll get to that point too.

This Magic Moment -- Featuring TBCF Poudre, *Pc*, cae.b, [[Masoom]]

In every relationship you'll find this magic moment. It's the moment you realize you trust someone. To me trust means far more than love. I know, others may disagree, but I will share my point of view. Some of my point of view may relate to how I was raised, and your point of view reflects the same.

Love must exist. I think it's one of those precious things we need to survive. We eat. We drink. We sleep. We shelter ourselves from the climate. And we also love. With the variety of relationships, that love manifests itself differently. I try to be sure that I use love as a verb, as a thing I do in life.

(Caption: This paisley dress Amita from [[Masoom]] has that playful, devil may care, spirit of the Bohemian culture.)

Many texts speak of love. They date back as far as the first time a written/spoken language occurred. Some focus on a religious aspect of love, while others believe love exists just because it exists and they assign no specific religious association.

(The shiny earrings from *Pc* come with a HUD that allows you to mix and match colors.)

Love! It's an action we should all take. Love exists easily when life spins wildly and with great amusement. Love exists less easily during times of crisis. I try to find something of value, thus something worth loving, in every person I meet. I believe the loneliest people are the ones who have no idea how to feel or share love. My goal - Love Unconditionally.

(cae.b showed a very artistic point of view, even in the naming of the products. A Strange Necklace and Escape Shoes both truly suit the overall aesthetic.)

Trust. Not so easy. It really takes time for me to trust. Time. Consistency. Genuine. These are all words I believe must be present before I consider trusting someone. My standards are high or my defense mechanisms are Fort Knox-like. When trust finally comes, it's a magical moment, a special experience that I never forget.
