You are running out of time so get those applications in quick smart. All the details are below and I have copied them here straight from the notecard. Starlight is founded by RubyStarlight Writer and has an amazing team on board that are the some of the best if not the best in their fields in SL!

Hello to all models!

In preparation for the launch of a new project, I am holding a casting call for new models, both MALE and FEMALE. The model position is primarily for LIVE modeling, (events or in-store work) but I will be looking for a few runway and print models as well.

The number of models to be hired are as follows:

20 Live Models
10 Runway Models
5 Print Models

Live models are considered to be in an "entry-level" position and may be graduated to Runway or Print model status at a later time, and there may be a few opportunities for both depending on needs.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

-Must be at least 4 months old in SL.
-Must have attended modeling school, currently be attending modeling school, or have had at least three modeling jobs.

To Audition:

1. Join the Starlight subscriber group by using the following landmark. All call backs will be announced through this group. We cannot IM every model who receives a call back individually, so THIS STEP IS VITAL.

2. Create a FOLDER titled "Starlight Model Audition - 'Your name'"

3. Place ONE headshot photo inside the folder, titled with your name, FULL PERMS. If you do not send it full perms, then I cannot put it on a board for review.

Best of luck to you all, now get those applications in!

It's been quiet a while since I did a week 2 week update. Ever since poor Jennaa was put into lock down. I have had such trouble with SL over the last few weeks but I think it's finally starting to settle down. After everything was sorted out with with the lindens, I downloaded the update and my word what a disaster! Let's just say I have gone back to my good old viewer and I seem to not be nearly having as much trouble thank goodness.

I have managed to catch up on alot of shopping, slowly catching up on the shows I missed and I got myself a new home! I am so in love with my new home and I don't think I have ever been this happy with my residence on SL. I had looked at Costa Rica Sims before, but thought I had better get a little more settled, then when my friend Imani showed me a plot that was available that was it... SOLD.

The Costa Rica Sims is a world within a virtual world, having been named one of the "25 Most Beautiful Places in Second Life®" by different publications and "Hot Spots" on Secondlife.com®. No other Estate in SL™ offers as many different environments and amenities as the Costa Rica Sims, allowing residents from over 40 different countries around the world to live in harmony with nature. All this in an Estate that has proven to be one of Second Life´s® success stories. (Taken from the website).

Check out Costa Rics Sims Website:
(Make sure to check out the land store while you are there. I promise you, you will love living here and the benefits are amazing.

I have also joined the Costa Rica Ladies' Society and have become an Executive member. I am so thrilled to join these ladies and am really looking forward with working with them.

ANNOUNCING MISS BLISS COUTURE 2010!

I am entering this and thought I would share it with everyone or the one person who checks out my blog. (The below text is taken directly from the note card).

This is a multi-level competition based on photos, live modeling and objective judging. NO VOTES! The competition begins June 18th and we will accept entries till July 30th 2009.

Step 1 - Join "THE BEST OF SL Magazine Readers" Group. All notices and results will be announced in this group only.

Step 2 - Models will submit photos of themselves wearing a dress or outfit from Bliss Couture. One full body and one headshot 512 X 512 (FULL PERM) each. Full body photos will be judged on styling, while headshots will judged based on visual appeal of the model. Please send your entry in a folder (not a notecard) to Caymon Zhora. Label your entry MISS BLISS COUTURE 2010 (YOUR NAME).

Step 3 - 100 girls will be selected from these entries for a live audition callback. Models should again wear a Bliss Couture dress or outfit and style themselves in a way they believe represents the image of Bliss Couture. Live audition will include a runway walk and will take place over 2 live audition times so all girls will have a chance to be seen.

Step 4 - Pool will be narrowed down to 20 models from the live audition. Since the winner of the competition will be working closely with designer Amutey DeCuir, it is important that the girl herself show signs of reliability and be personable. An interview will be scheduled for each girl to gauge for compatibility between model and designer.

Step 5 - The pool of 20 will be narrowed down to 10. The 10 finalists will all have a photoshoot done wearing the same dress provided to them by Bliss Couture. These side by side photos by a professional photographer will be judged by a panel and will determine the top 5.

Step 6 - The top 5 will all be invited to be Bliss Couture Models, on staff for live modeling, runway modeling, special events and select vendor ads. The 5 finalists will walk in a runway show, wearing all new releases from Bliss Couture. A panel of judges will be present to determine the winner.

Step 7 - From the top 5, ONE lady will be chosen as Miss Bliss Couture 2010. Miss Bliss will be considered the "Face" of Bliss Couture, appearing in most vendor ads for new clothing, and will exclusively be the model in all print advertising for magazines and other media. Miss Bliss Couture will be given priority for all modeling jobs available, only being replaced in the event of her being unavailable.

PRIZES!


The top 10 finalists will receive a professional photoshoot, and their choice of any one fatpack of a Bliss Couture dress or outfit.

The top 5 finalists will all become Bliss Couture models, and be hired for various modeling work within the company. In addition to the prizes for the top 10, the top 5 girls will also each receive a $5000L gift card to Bliss Couture.

Miss Bliss Couture will be awarded a specially designed diamond jewelry set from Alyssa Bijoux . She will also be given all future Bliss Couture releases throughout her reign (one year), 10,000L Cash Prize and of course the title of Miss Bliss 2010.

The winner will also receive an invitation to Boulevard Agency and an interview for BOSL Magazine.

Good Luck to all of you and we'll see you on the runway!

Meghindo's touch of sensuality has been a favourite of mine for quiet sometimes. I stumbled across it one day while looking for a different type of swimsuit. Since then I have just gone back over and over again to purchase her designs. They are different, glamorous and most of all just amazing qulaity. Meghindo Romano has a new shop on casablanca's and it is packed with all her gorgeous designs. Everything from ball gowns, swimsuits, casual wear and jewelry. If you want to stand out from the crowd and turn heads whereever you go.. there is only one stop Meghindo's touch of sensuality.

EYES: L$0 (Miriel) Realistic Eyes - in the shade of Earth. I actually managed to pick up a pack of 19 eyes from Miriel quiet a while ago for nothing. She had a fantastic pack full of eyes for free. Miriel's eyes are just amazing in detail and the colors are just divine. Unfortunately when I went back to grab a landmark for this blog I noticed I was not allowed access to the sim... so I immediately headed to her blog and low and behold on Saturday, June 13th 2009 she posted this message. " A heads up: Saturday the 20th will be the last open day for the sim". It's heartbreaking to see such a fantastic creator close up shop. I wish Miriel Enfield the very best and may she find creative happiness in whatever she decides to do.

“On November 4th, 2008 Proposition 8 passed, amending the state Constitution to ban same-sex marriage.

In the wake of the defeat, there has been a groundswell of initiative from within the community at grassroots level. Seizing this opportunity, new political and protest organizations are forming almost daily. The NOH8 Campaign is a photo project & silent protest created by celebrity photographer Adam Bouska and partner Jeff Parshley in direct response to the passage of Proposition 8.

The campaign started with portraits of everyday Californians who support Marriage Equality and soon rose to celebrities, military personnel, brothers & sisters, law enforcement, lesbian mothers, directors, politicians, newlyweds, and more, Photos feature subjects with duct tape over their mouths symbolizing their voices not being heard and NOH8 painted on one cheek in protest. ”

There is a heap of information on this website and a tonne of fantastic photos. Go on over and check it out and get informed as well as involved!

If people want to participate in SL and get their picture taken for the cause you can IM either Francois Ghost or Trace Osterham.

As well there is a flickr group going where you can post your photos taken to support this campaign. There are some sensational photos going into this group, so check it out!

I feel that this is an exciting concept and I am looking forward to putting together some fanatstic looks for a broad range of users.
