Vain Inc. Magazine Issue 23 - Now Available!

The July 2009 Issue of Vain Inc. Magazine hit the stands yesterday, and it has to be one of the best efforts as of yet. Yours' truly was beyond flattered when Editor-in-chief, and all around super-woman, Toko Voom asked me to pose for the cover. What does one wear on a cover of a magazine that sums up one's personal style and still makes for a compelling image. I settled on a great sexy top from Bare@Rose Tokyo, a skirt from Maitreya, and Jewelry by Paper Couture, ~*Fresh Baked Goods*~, and (Caroline's) Jewelry. Hair is by Aden, skin by *REDGRAVE*, eyes by Miriel, and lashes from [Detour]. I simply love how soft and romantic the picture is, and I think it really captures my spirit. Thanks Toko!

And check out my "Look of the Month: The Jilted Bride". A stunning modern bridal look, shot on location in Emvee Cuba.



The above image was meant to be part of the article, but got lost in transition. It is my favorite shot of the month, but by no means the most compelling. Find my "Look" on pages 104-123 of this months issue.

This month's Vain Inc. Magazine "Look Of The Month" had me living out my dreams of Rock N' Roll Diva-tude, recreating album covers and iconic promo shots for some of my all-time favorites. Joat Jett And The Blackhearts "Fake Friends", Siouxsie Sioux of Siouxsie and the Banshees circa 1982, and Blondie's "Parallel Lines" with Debbie Harry and The Band.

Vain Inc. Magazine - Issue 18 Now Available!

This month for my "Look of the Month" editorial in Vain Inc. Magazine, I decided it was time to celebrate my first fashion "Love" in-world. Vintage, Retro, & Rockabilly! I have been toying with the idea of being a "Paper Doll" for ages, and it was too much fun. I would love to see other bloggers take this challenge on, make a doll out of yourself, show us all a few of your favorite outfits! If you visit the Flickr page (click the images), you can actually see the full size versions, and can see how easy it was to do... it would have to be, since I have no PS skills whatsoever! Check out this month's issue of Vain Inc. Magazine online or in-world, it is another great one! Vain Inc. Magazine - Issue 18!

Vain Inc. Magazine - Issue 17 Released!

In this month's 'Look Of The Month' for Vain Inc. Magazine, I opted for 3 looks in one day, from morning to night. I got a bit brave and did a lingerie look to start my day, a street wear look for shopping, and then this great night out look too. It made for a lot more work, but I think it was well worth it. Full shopping details and credits for this look are in the issue.

Also announced in this month's issue are the Vain Readers Choice Awards, and I am so proud to see so many friends among the reader picks. Congratulations to all those nominated and chosen. Check out the issue in-world, or online HERE.

Vain Inc. Magazine - November 2008, Issue #15

As the Look of the Month Editor for Vain Inc. Magazine, I try to put together a great look and shoot each month. This is my contribution to the November Issue, #15. I think it is my best so far, I styled the look and took all the shots myself, with no post-editing at all other then cropping and adding text. I am really pleased with them. Pick up your issue in-world, or check it out Online.









A big thanks to LeeZu Baxter for sending me a Review Copy of this luscious gown, it is too stunning!



I also somehow landed on the cover. Thanks to Nyla Rossini for asking me to be a part of the shoot! Love to all my Vain Inc. fellow staffers!

Edit~ Lack of sleep and a rush to post made me misspell the name of the month. *slaps forehead*. Sorry if I pop back to the top of the feeds, as a perfectionist, I simply couldn't let that one go. Apologies.
