Just have to love the sweetness of (vive9) skins!

Well there was a new release recently with vive9 skin and I had to get it. Now when I first heard of vive9 I was a bit skeptical of the look, it took a minute for me to really appreciate the quality and uniqueness of this skin. But after a while I was convinced that I the price was definitely worth it. The pink sweetly turned down lip with a few front teeth showing gives a great innocent look and coupled with some dark, dramatic lashes it just really completes the look. At first I was going to go for a valentine day themed and inspired look in a bit more obvious manner but I decided to play with my inventory and this is what I came up with. I’m moving away from my addiction to red and finding the greatness of pink and all that it can really do for a look!

I was in a budget crisis when suddenly it came to me- why don’t I play around with my inventory and create entirely new looks from what I already owned? It’s a practice I encourage every model to take part in as it’s not only fun but it inspires and awakens your creative senses! In this outfit I wanted to go for something sweet and naughty at the same time. The pink lip and sweetly flowing white corset really balance out the bold and black of the top. At first glance one would think it would be overpowering with so many ruffles but as you truly notice the simplicity of the dress you really get the appreciation for the two totally different pieces complementing one another.

Now I have to wonder who doesn’t want to be a Rockstar in this day and age? I would think that even the most hardcore bookworm has fantasies of standing in front of an adoring crowd as millions scream his/her name with piercing shrieks of wanting and unrequited love. I know that I’ve had these feelings and dreams a time or two myself- even going so far as to manifest itself physically when I’m standing on top of my bed holding a hairbrush as my loose curls whip across my face while I attempt to give myself whiplash and lip singing to the latest jams. [Frowns at the reader] Hey I’m sure you’ve done something similar as well so stop that snickering over there! But unfortunately unlike the real rockstars I was left stranded on the street without a ride after my buddies forgot me and headed back home. How they didn’t know I wasn’t in the car is anyone’s guess but there it is folks. You can be sure that even though I was without a car and only had 1L to my name I was rocking that roadside curb as I tried to hitch a ride back south.

As a model I get a bit of that fame and glory even if sometimes I don’t even realize it or can’t fully appreciate it with all the work I have to do constantly that overrides that feeling of joy and exalt at times. It’s been getting a bit chilly lately as the winter season crawls upon us and turns our blood to ice but I wasn’t feeling a thing with my new faux fur coat from Aoharu. It is definitely bound to keep you warm and stylish in even those most frigid of temperatures. Unfortunately for me I had decided to go with a stylish and daring short over the eye sweep cut from MADesigns and my neck was feeling a bit of the wind’s bite. I was never one for the whole flashy and ostentatious look so I decided to go with the Glam Goddess Rocker rather than the all out wild child rocker. It’s a look anyone can pull off- staying casual yet stylish and up-t0-date in this nice cool piece. Who says you have to be all flash and glitter to rock it out?
