People who make a real difference in life both real and
Second Life are few and far
between. Inspirational people come in
various guises. In this particular instance
it is the ever so elegantly glamorous Eibhline, she of the Regal Academy.</div>

In RL she lives in the USA. She works incredibly hard and by that I mean
seven days a week in RL as a youth treatment counsellor at a corrections
facility for boys ages 13-23. Over and above this she is also in grad school to

What brought her to SL was one of her college classes called
Valuable Populations. It discussed how Second Life was used as an outlet for
people with disabilities. She said “I wanted to be one of the people to help
make a difference in their lives and joined SL.”<br />

Regal Academy is not her first foray into the world of
fashion and modelling in SL. Originally
she opened an Agency/Academy called NDD: No Dramatic Divas. However, due to Eibhline being in RL School
it had to close down. She finished her third degree in December 2014, but
mid-way through she opened Regal in July of that year.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked Eibhline what she found so rewarding about running a
modelling agency/academy in SL. She said
“For the academy it would be to see how the students grow in the fashion world
to become professionals in whichever area they have a passion for. Regal offers
two model certifications, or we like to call them papers of nobility, the first
is a basic model certification and the second an advance certification. To gain
a basic model certification students will have to pass 101 Regal Foundations
and 201 Regal Contour classes. Whereas the advance is 101 Regal Foundations
thru 601 Regal Performance Etiquette.<br />

We have a number of lords and lady models
who's gained their basic certification however only three have graduated for
their advance model certification. Avalon Chrome, Shannon Bramlington, and
Aradia Aridian. Each graduate has gone on to do amazing things in the fashion
world. Avalon Chrome is an amazing photographer and blogger. She continued her
education at Visionaire Institute and graduated. Her own blog has been
nominated for Avi's Choice Award Favorite Fashion Blogger 2014 and she's won
the best photo contest and landed the cover of NuVibez Magazine. Recently she did
a Chop Zuey ad spread for BOSL magazine. Shannon Bramlington continued her education
at Versus and plans to graduate in January 2016. She was crowned Miss Azul 2015
and is the master mind behind the Sexy 7 Idea for Azul that <br />
was just released.
Shannon additionally landed the covers on Ferosh & Versus Magazines. Last but not least, Aradia Aridian has become
a fashion writer and has done show scripts or articles for Penumbra, Solaris,
BOSL, Iconiq, and Eclipse. I look forward to seeing what else is in store for
our new students who are creeping up to become advance models as well. As for the Agency it's rewarding to see
different types of talented models come together to create something dedicated
to fashion!”<br />

I asked her how Regal was different from other modelling academies
and agencies in SL. She said “It isn't
about what clique you are in or who you know. It's about having that passion
for fashion and working hard to be a top model. It's accepting that right now
you may not be a top model but we want to see you get there! Or your attitude
needs to change because it's unprofessional, let us help you with that so you
can be more successful! You don't have to look cookie cutter show us you unique
side! To be a good model is to have the talent and having the proper professional
attitude.”</div>

Second Life being the wonderland it is, offers people from
all walks of life a platform for creative expression. Come with me down the rabbit hole as I take a
look at Lovit Avatars, a valued advertiser at Sweethearts Jazz Club and vendor
of a range of bodies beautiful.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The creation of skins and shapes in Second Life is an art. Creators such as Rockward Waco of Lovit
Avatars, spend hours developing complete avatars, tediously creating the perfect illusion for our virtual reality.<span style="color: #797973; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-ZA;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A skin and
shape creator must skillfully
transform the pixels of the Second Life avatar into a desirable character. They will often work with real world images to perfect the
physical features of our virtual selves, creating a flawless appearance for our avatars<span style="color: #797973; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-ZA;">. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

The human behind LOVIT Avatars comes from the Eastern part
of the USA and is a computer scientist in work study background. He came to SL in 2006 to look at Virtual
Reality for a fortune 500 company and luckily for us stayed.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Initially Rock began working on avatars to research how they
would impact business process automation.
The underlying, key idea was that avatars would be used in our everyday
lives. In due course that work led to
him creating alluring and beautiful avatars with the intention of making the
residents of SL look good. <o:p></o:p></div>

Lovit Avatars are unique in that they create limited edition

makeups and appearance. They call this a

Infinity Estates is a cost effective mainland residential
estate brought to you by Spicy Braveheart.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In real life she is a busy southern California girl, who not
only has a day job, but is a business major at the same time. This entrepreneurial lady was brought to
Second Life by someone she regards as her SL father, to head up his CCS (CoLA
Combat System) clan. They first met
through another game that, at the time, she was an administrator on. Spicy said “I sort of beat him up, lol. So began a fast friendship that has lasted
for the entire duration of my journey in SL.”

<div class="MsoNormal">
After some time finding her feet, she decided that she
wanted to provide affordable housing for people in SL. At the time she started, rentals were
pricey. She figured out rather quickly,
that if you provide quality rentals at an affordable price, and couple that
with excellent customer service; you end up with quality renters who will stay
for a long period of time and recommend the estate to their friends.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked Spicy what made Infinity Estates unique amongst other
residential estates in SL. She said “What
makes us unique is the variety of choices people have for low cost rentals. We
only rent mainland properties, which allows us to keep our costs under
control. This savings is passed onto our
customers. From fully furnished sky
boxes to empty lots. We really have
something for everyone at a price that won't break the bank.”<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Infinity Estate consists of affordable lots, regardless if
they are on water, have ocean views or are on grass. The Sky boxes are just as affordable. Spicy believes that everyone needs a place to
unpack a box or three, change, bring
company over to and on occasion just chill out, listening to the radio and
sorting through their inventories. She
said “I feel it's important for people to have their own slice of SL heaven to
enjoy. For a newbie, it might be a way
to figure out how to put on socks, for an established player it might just be a
place to relax and occasionally have friends over. By keeping prices affordable, we can
accommodate most people’s residential needs.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Infinity Estate has a variety of offerings, from low cost
sky boxes to small and large parcels of empty land. The sky boxes come in many shapes and sizes,
complete with security orbs. The lots
come with the ability to control the settings on each parcel. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And what’s on the cards in the near future for Infinity
Estates? A small expansion, to include
more sky box options as well as additional lots in various sizes.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There is something for everyone at the right price at
Infinity Estates, join a residential community run by a lady with your best
interests at heart.<o:p></o:p></div>

I asked her how mesh impacted on what she designs. She said
“At the start I was disgusted because I loved the creativity SL allowed and now
we had to deal with transparent, uniformed bodies, and mesh dresses that
stretched like chewing gum. It sure was
really bad for me. Mesh evening dresses
can’t flow using mesh components only.
So I mix mesh and flexi parts to create less gummy dressed. Sure the textures look better on a mesh body and
that’s why I've added appliers to complement my designs and to try to make the
perfect dress, and it’s working really well!”</div>

I caught up with our very busy Shannon to find out what’s
been going on in her Second Life recently.
I’m sure that many of you know that she recently participated in the
Miss Azul contest and WON! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Not that it
comes as a surprise of course, we all know just how lovely and smart she is.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked her what prompted her to enter the contest. She said “I entered Miss Azul because of a promise. I
had been waiting for another Miss Azul contest to begin since 2011. And when it
finally did in 2015, I knew it was time to throw my hat into the ring and try.”</div>

They require dedication, enthusiasm and perseverance. There
were many various stages to get through, and I asked her which her favourite
was? She said “Oh there were so many
challenges to complete. But I think my two favourite stages were the business
presentation and the finale. For the business presentation I gave Azul an idea
I had had for years and presented it in a new way that wasn't a notecard or
texture. It was fun to put the presentation together. The finale was a blast
too. I was screaming in RL the whole time, even when I was walking and posing.
I was thrilled to just BE there, let alone win. When I finished my first walk I
cried "the ugly cry" for 30 minutes, just because I was there and so
excited to be part of the contest.”</div>

I asked her what her responsibilities as Miss AZUL 2015
would likely entail? She said “So far its
interviews and photo shoots. There have been many and I'm still getting through
them all. I am excited to see what the future holds for the AZUL brand and so
excited to be a part of it.”<br />

Razmataz is one of Sweethearts Jazz Clubs loyal advertisers. Melonie Romano brings you custom poses,
animations for builders, items with full perms, model poses, HUDs, AOs, walks, group
dances, swimming animations, bathtubs with MLP, wedding walks, cuddle rugs, hot
tubs with MLP and much more under the brand name of Razmataz.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Melonie has a strong passion for Art, Dance, Music and
Fashion. In real life she enjoys modern dance and ballet. She received a medal on balance beam and plays
guitar for leisure. She came to Second Life for fun, and to make friends. She decided she didn't like the animations
available and so now she am the owner and creator of Razmataz Art, Poses &
Animations.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
She began creating poses about six years ago, mainly because she
loves art and feels the human body is piece of art. When it comes to inspiration she uses her creativity
to conjure up poses and animations, sometimes she gets custom requests and
other times she will see a picture or video and try to mirror it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked her what made her creations better than others that
are available and she said “I guess I
don't ever think of it that way, being better... I feel everyone has their own
creativity and uniqueness, so what I do is not in competition ever.”<o:p></o:p></div>

She doesn’t really have a favourite creation she said “As I

As for what’s on the cards in the near future for Razmataz,
the metaverse is the limit. Animations
can be anything you desire from surfing, diving, dancing, kissing, relaxing,

<div class="MsoNormal">
In real life Nile lives in Istanbul, she is educated in
journalism and PR and has always had an interest in PC games and virtual worlds. Her SL journey began in February 2007. Initially she joined SL to occupy some of her
free time. Over time some the wonders of
the creativity SL offers attracted her attention and so began her journey as a
builder, starting with simple flowers and plants, over and above this she had a
sim with an art gallery and a dance venue, run in conjunction with her partner.<o:p></o:p></div>

Nile opened the doors of FlowerDreams in 2009. The name of her brand came from her initial
penchant for creating flowers. She said “It
was always in my mind to make gowns but I knew I needed to learn Photoshop
first. I started with SL video tutorials, my first works were poorly made
dresses, but a very stubborn person I persevered. My dream was to make different gowns, maybe even
a bit surreal.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked Nile about her design style and what makes her collections
unique in the SL fashion industry, she said “My motto is “in a virtual world
you can wear a dream.” I offer dreams to
my customers, sometimes very innocent ... sometimes a bit naughty but always
elegant and high quality.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The ladies who wear FlowerDreams creations are ladies who
want to feel unique, who want to feel the joy of colours and imagination.<o:p></o:p></div>

Getting to grips with the arrival of mesh proved to be a
challenge, but she is not one to shirk away from a challenge. Initially she approached it with caution as
she loved making gowns with hundreds of flexi prims, but she saw that mesh
could look very nice, with high quality realistic looking fabrics so now she
has a mesh base to which she adds her prims to the skirt, utilising the best of
both options. She added “Recently I have been focusing on
including appliers for mesh bodies into my designs, which has added a whole new
challenge to the design world.”<o:p></o:p></div>

I asked Nile what it’s like to see someone wearing one of
her creations – she replied “This is my favourite question... :)) it’s a real
pleasure to see my gowns on ladies, it always makes me smile joyfully in
RL. I don’t do this business for money,
I just love the creativity on SL, I love to see my dreams on wonderful
ladies. They are making my dream come
true. I’m thankful for that... SL has made
me a better person and artist...”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Her advice to anyone interested in getting into the SL
fashion design world is to always seek for new things to learn, let curiosity
drive you. She said “I followed my
dreams...worked hard…that is how I did it and so can you :))”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked her what her favourite design was, she said “I count
many of my creations as favourite, but I think it is the Fairy Tale dress. It was my first design which I made after
many unsuccessful tries and it is still available in my store and one of my
best selling items.”<o:p></o:p></div>

Dogs and horses don’t generally speaking get along in real
life, but in Second Life they get along like a house on fire.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Zed Avedon owner and creator of <b>Realistek,</b> is the man responsible for making these animals get
along so well in SL.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The human behind the pixels of Zed, is an artist from
Auckland, New Zealand, who has a background in architecture and the fine arts. Seven years ago, an ex-girlfriend suggested
he might like Second Life and he said "what is Second Life?" …..<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Zed started creating dogs and horses when his, as he put it,
social grouping dispersed. They were a
role play group in which he was a Centaur. He said “Trouble was, I didn't really like the
way it looked at all. I tried making it better, but noticed it kept reverting
back by itself!” Then he found a freebie
horse head by chance, and was he was really excited to think he could be a
proper horse. He added “I needed to wear
the head and make myself invisible from the hips up... so I worked hard on just
that.”<o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There were no other horse avatars around at that time,
except ones that to him look like and move more like cartoons. Zed said “So eventually there I was, a dumb
but friendly somewhat realistic horse. Then,
to improve or 'fix' part of my avatar I realised I would have to learn to do/
make it for myself.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That was the real start for him, he was hooked. He had to learn to make a prim, to script, animate, and texture. He said “I still remember looking at a
YouTube video on how to duplicate a prim. I really was filled with wonder.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Eventually he made a full perms horse and realized he could
sell copies of it. Which apparently didn’t
sell much but that wasn’t the point.
Then he needed to script a saddle, but all scripting looked like ancient
Egyptian to him. It took about six
months and he had a saddle that worked reasonably well without errors, even
though he still didn't fully understand how the script worked. He said “Seven years later I know scripting
well enough! Sometimes I sadly look at
the Scripting Forum hoping to find something that I don’t know, to remind me of
that excitement I used to have about discovering something new.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Zed said that he is a bit OCD about his builds, and is
inclined to do things over and over until it’s exactly the way it needs to be. With his textures and scripting, he makes
things as lean as possible to keep them lag free. He added “It’s common to see a product of mine
with one or two scripts, while the equivalent product by someone else has
twelve to twenty. I don’t know how they
can live with themselves! :D My first customer is me :) and I like things
right!” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Zed is enamoured by mesh and he wished it had been around
from the start. It gives him much more
control to make things lean where they can be he said that It’s amazing fun to
make things from mesh. He added “Really it’s not that hard. In the old days it
was harder, but now the interface and available tutorial guides are a huge

He is a perfectionist in all he does and his work has to
satisfy his own high expectations. He said “I was a cigarette smoker when I
started and honestly I think that helped (grimace!). It enabled me to work nonstop 16 hour days
and seven days a week. But I loved working in SL, there was nothing else I would
have rather done :) Ha! Now I am smoke free, and try to be a bit more
reasonable. To be a professional creator
in SL, it does help to be the right kind of crazy.”<o:p></o:p></div>

I asked Zed why he thought people wanted to be a dog or a
horse in SL and he replied “When a girl first rode me on my first crappy horse,
I could not believe how excited she was :) She was new to SL and this was blowing her
mind! Horses, wolves and dogs ... I
think they are a metaphor made real in a virtual world. You want to be powerful and beautiful? Be a
horse! Dark and mysterious or cute and
faithful? Be a wolf or dog.”</div>

This week’s featured designer on the Sweethearts Plaza has
been Snowpaws. The design talent behind
the brand is the gorgeous Carrie Snowpaw.<br />

The human behind the avatar currently lives on the east
coast of the United States. Her background is in fine arts and graphic design.
She originally came to Second Life after reading an article about it somewhere.
She logged in, looked around and left... It held no draw for her. But luckily
for the fashionista’s of SL, about six months later she was bored one day and
decided to take another look. And she was hooked. <o:p></o:p></div>

After being in Second Life for several months Carrie became
interested in SL clothing. She loved buying clothes but was never quite
satisfied with what she had bought. She always thought she would like the
outfit better if this part were different or that part was shorter. So that
dissatisfaction is what put the idea of designing her own line in her mind. She said “Why purchase clothes that I want to
change? Just make the outfit I really want!”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Her design style is creating for herself. When she is am
making a dress, she makes something that she wants to wear, and that she thinks
is pretty. Her design aesthetic is feminine, elegant and sexy but not overly
so. She thinks the flood of club wear and slut wear in Second Life is really is
what helped to make her store successful in the beginning. Back in 2009 when she opened her store sexy
clothing was everywhere. She said “I think elegant feminine clothing was a
little difficult to find. So when I started offering outfits that were
different from every other mall store women noticed.”</div>

I asked Carrie who she thought the lady who wears Snowpaws
is. She said “The lady who wears a
Snowpaws outfit is looking for beautiful feminine clothing that makes her feel
confident, beautiful and tastefully sexy.”</div>

Carrie draws her inspiration mostly from real life. Walking
down the street and observing what people are wearing, real fashion magazines,
fashion shows, and award shows like the Oscars. She added “You should see me watching
the red carpet on Oscar night, with my pencil and sketch book drawing out
ideas. It’s fun. I start with my sketches and then let my imagination take over
as I create. So generally my end product does not look at all like the outfit
that inspired it.”<o:p></o:p></div>

I asked her what impact that mesh has had on her
designs. She said “I am very proud to
say that I make my own mesh creations now, so yes while I have used templates
in the past I am proud to be able to put the word "original" on my
vending boards. The process of learning took me a long time but has given me
such satisfaction! The ability to offer my customers many options for clothing
has been very rewarding and I know my customers appreciate it. I do not think
the introduction of mesh into the Snowpaws collection has changed my style
though. I still strive to create beautiful well-fitting elegant clothing
regardless of the medium used.”</div>

For those of you who are considering going into fashion
design in SL, Carrie would recommend that you only getting in the business if
you love the creation process. If you are doing it to make money then you will
be disappointed. The market is flooded and the ability to stand out and be
noticed in the field these days is very slim. She would also recommend that you
try to avoid using templates. She said “Everywhere I look I see the same base
mesh items over and over again. The ability to create completely original items
will make you stand out.”</div>

In RL Greece is a
country in South Eastern Europe consisting of 2 mainland peninsulas and
thousands of islands throughout the Aegean and Ionian seas. It's often called
the birthplace of Western civilization, and Athens, its capital, retains
ancient landmarks including the 5th-century-B.C.E. Acropolis citadel and
Parthenon temple. Greece is also known for its beaches, from the black sands of
Santorini to the party resorts of Mykonos.<o:p></o:p></div>

Edemon is a true romantic and said he finds inspiration for
his creations from his muse and partner Frederika. However, the need to present

Edemon reiterated that his motives to create the Greek
Islands were other than that of making a profit. He said “I strongly believe that in order to
achieve profitable levels in SL business, you either have to offer your brain
capital (building, scripting etc.) or own many, many regions, over 100, in the
rentals business. The rental prices are just providing me a break-even-point
revenue.”</div>

He has plans to further develop The Greek Islands by establishing
a strong support team, who will be able to immediately offer any kind of
assistance that is required. Also to have a representation of some of Greece’s
historical sites is on the cards.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
In the real world Cerri lives in the UK and works in a
leading Cancer treatment Hospital.
Second Life has always been a fun and interesting way to let off steam
and meet people from around the world for her.</div>

She went into fashion designing when in her first few weeks
In SL she met a lovely Avatar named Phoebe, who introduced her to building and
creating clothing using prims. Cerri said “She had the patience to teach me how
to use Photoshop and to create Images of the items I had made. 5 years later
I'm still designing and creating and loving every moment of it. Phoebe has my eternal thanks.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Miss Mischief clothing is bright, fun, energetic and
affordable. Cerri uses beautiful, high
quality textures from some fantastic texture creators in SL and some of her own
too. <o:p></o:p></div>

Miss Mischief design ranges include casual, office wear,
evening wear and accessories. Thereby
capturing a little something that appeals to every lady.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She is inspired by the many, many avatars across SL from the
bright, fun and energetic to the elegant and luxuriant. Cerri said “I hope that
Miss Mischief reflects that in the designs.”
She looks around RL and SL for trends. She added “With social media it's never been
easier to keep your fingers on the pulse.
There's lots of inspiration out there to keep SL fashion as varied and
interesting as it is now.”<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked her how she feels about the arrival of mesh in
SL? She replied “Mesh has had a huge
impact on SL fashion and with the introduction of alpha layers and materials,
appliers etc. designing possibilities are almost endless. Mesh has made clothing highly detailed
compared with clothing layers. Though I
must say, Flexi- prims still look fabulous and when combined with a mesh model
the effect can be gorgeous.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She loves seeing her creations being worn. She said “Every time I see one I look twice,
to me each design looks different on another avatar. I love to see the
accessories, the hairstyle and shoes they add to the outfit, it inspires me to
create more.”<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked her what advice she would give to someone interested
in getting into the SL fashion design business?
She replied “There's lots of avenues to investigate if you are
interested in creating designs. There
are numerous online tutorials that have detailed step-by-step
instructions. Be creative, have fun and
keep at it. Don't be afraid to ask
others for help and advice, there are many avatars out there that are more than
happy to help a fellow designer.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Her favourite design is actually one of her first designs
"Ballerina Kitty Kit". She and
her friend Phoebe opened their first store together “Kitty Kit" and this
outfit was one of the more popular designs.
The design has a flexi-prim tutu, matching clothing layer top, cute
kitty ears, twitching kitty tail with tail talk, little kitty legwarmers and
feet and a sweet little collar. She said “I totally enjoyed making the outfit
and strutting around in it afterwards.”<o:p></o:p></div>

She goes by the name Christiane Armanii. This avatar’s human is resident in Ontario

experience which has stood her in good stead in tackling all that SL has thrown
her way. Initially a stay at home mom

A friend who saw a video of her RL creations, thought that
Christiane would love SL. Her friend
brought her in, gave her a couple of LMs for content creation classes, and she
was off. She started building houses
but found boxes to be boring, but it gave her the basic building blocks to
start designing clothing.</div>

Christiane sets out to create textures and styles not often

She draws inspiration from what she has already designed,
reworking the textures and designs. She
said “A design request is best when it comes to inspiration, as it often forces
me out of my comfort zone. I tend to stick to color ranges that I personally
like and a specific request also remedies that.”<o:p></o:p><br />

Christiane derives huge satisfaction when she see someone

Last week’s Sweethearts Jazz Club shopping plaza featured vendor was
<b>Jewelry by Jake</b>. The ever so charming
Tjake Kearny let me take a peek into his Second Life.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
His human self is Italian born but has been transplanted to
the USA. He said “I LOVE football! WATCH EVERY GAME... and yes MY GIANTS are
going to take it all the way this year!” He came to Second Life with a very
beautiful lady he met from another game.
It was nothing like SL but that is what brought them both here. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked him how he got into the SL jewelry design business
and he said “When I began in SL.. it was quite a while ago.. we were allowed to
gamble.. camping paid a lot more than it does now.. but unfortunately I talk a
lot!.. and since I was not making a great living, Sommes told me to go out
there and get a job!.. Like real avi's.. I'm kidding!.. Actually Sommes was the
inspiration behind me beginning with jewelry design. I began very small.. Earrings.. necklaces.. bracelets.. and umm.. wait a second that is exactly what
I do now...”<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Jake designs his jewelry from a male perspective, he said “Men
know what looks stunning and sexy on women.”
He is old school and builds each piece by hand. He added “The only way to frame your stunning
face with my jewelry is to build my jewelry right on a women's body. Many of my pieces are 254 (or more) prims..
all placed.. exactly where I want them to be on your body.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The woman that wears Jewelry by Jake is the woman who wants
to frame a specific part of her body to enhance her natural beauty.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked him where his inspiration for his designs comes from
and he said “Inspiration comes in so many ways...it can be a customer who comes
in and describes how they feel in a piece of jewelry.. or my JEWELRY BY JAKE
group saying.. "Jake I love Garnets, please make something like that"
-- then I created the Paris line.
"make rings!".. <span style="font-family: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span>
oh yes they do inspire me... and when a
lady inspires me.. I like to let everyone know in my note cards when I announce
the collection. Each piece I make has its own special feeling for me. Not
necessarily a long time to design .. but a long time to perfect. “<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Jake said that there is no better feeling than to see
someone wearing one of his collections, in fact it is breath-taking.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked Jake what advice he would give to someone interested
in getting into the SL jewelry design business, to which he replied “Well.. my answer is don't make jewelry
just to make money. -- that designer
would miss the point and end up closing.
Make something because you really enjoy making that piece.. or object..
or service.. that’s really the secret! oh .. *wink* don't tell anyone..”<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="background-color: white;">Who am I talking about? </span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">This week Sweethearts Jazz Club shines our
spotlight on Japanese, SL fashion designer of note, Mami Jewell.</span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">She is the owner and designer for one of the
leading fashion houses of Second Life, AZUL.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white;">Those of you who frequent Sweethearts Jazz Club regularly will know that we feature a designer from our shopping plaza every week and last week it was the turn of AZUL, and I undertook to have a chat with the lovely lady herself.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mami lives in Tokyo. She graduated from the Art University
where she studied Graphic Design. She has never worked as a Designer in Real
Life. Here first job was an Architect
Designer and the last one was for a trading company. She was introduced to Second Life by a friend
and she decided that it offered her an excellent platform to try her hand at
creating. It was something which she
couldn't do in Real Life even though she loved it. She said “Now I am happy
that I managed to be a creator in here, in Second Life.”<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Mami told me that she got into fashion designing in SL when
she was a newbie because her creative urge bubbled to the fore, and so it was
back in 2007 that she started out creating skins, buildings and simple outfits,
she added “I did not have any Lindens so believe it or not I did a lot of
"camping" to get some money in order to be able to cover the upload
charges. At the moment, I am grateful to be able to create anything I want but
at that point of time I was only able to make clothes for myself. And that was
the start of AZUL.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I asked Mami what made her choose the name AZUL for her
label? She said “This is actually something most people may not be expecting.
Blue is the colour I love the most, and the very first store I rented was on a
beach sim. So, I looked up how the word Blue is translated into other languages
and I picked Portuguese, AZUL.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
For Mami, inspiration comes to her from anything she sees or
hears. Anything from boards on Pinterest or images on Facebook. Basically anything
can really trigger a creative mind. She
finds it exciting to see the art conveyed by the work that Photographers,
Bloggers and Models come up with in SL. She said “They are using their utterly
creative sense and bring the AZUL dresses into pieces of art. I love to see
them.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
These days we have huge choices of brands and shops for our
shopping delight, which Mami sees as a source of encouragement, she explained “I
like it when people find new good stores and enjoy shopping. That pushes other
creators to study and learn to make better things, and this subsequently
results in the overall quality of creations in SL too rise.” Designing gowns that are both high quality and
exquisite to look at are two of her main priorities and the tough competition and
customers demand for quality keep her on her toes.<o:p></o:p></div>
