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).

(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!

Bliss Couture CEO
