It has been a very eventful day for me today. The semi final for Face of VoguE took place this morning and I am one of the twenty finalists that was choosen to walk before the judges.
The challenges we were given are to create two mix and match styles, for casual and formal respectively. There were some really experienced models and great stylings among the semi finalists, and it was really an honour to be part of the group. Results will be out in the Best of Second Life (BOSL) group soon and while waiting for that, I am having fun taking pictures.
Here are my stylings. I have styled to be seductive using the hot pants for the casual mix and match and timeless and elegant using lace for the formal mix and match. I made the decision to wear a mesh belt in my casual styling so I could use more bold poses to showcase the outfits.
