Ok, you don’t really have to give me a penny. I am a live model in a couple places in SL. It amazes me that people don’t take the time to look their best. Learning how to adjust eyelashes and jewelry as best you can in a game that likes to make them look all wonky, is important. Most of all though, outfit selection is key. Why do people wear any old thing they can throw on to go model? While we don’t get paid much to store model I think we should look good at all times. Both out of a sense of responsibility for the job and because we are being observed. Outfits where parts of your body are hanging out everywhere, please don’t. Not an attractive look. Outfits with blood on them or where everything is torn and shredded, please don’t. Perhaps people are going for an urban look when they do this, but I think you can do an urban look and still look like you have some class. People come into a fine clothing store or jewelry store to see good-looking models who best show off the items. How is blood or making yourself look trampy going to accomplish that? This is just a pet peeve of mine. Some models forget as a model it isn’t about you. It is about best representing the designer. You can still show individuality and style. But please, have class when you do it.

My first blog ever

- Yes I am the Queen
So today, as part of the Miss Refined International competition we were given our first task, create a blog about MRI and modelling in SL. Well, I have never blogged before in my life.I’m still not sure that I actually am right now. In fact if this is really terrible I’m sure someone could tell me. Be nice though, remember I am new. I didn’t even read blogs before. I couldn’t figure out why people would want to read my thoughts and why I’d want to read all of theirs. I am going to give it my all and try to learn how to do this well. This competition is a great opportunity.
I love modelling in SL and competitions are fun. Thank you to MPI for doing this. Thank you Jason Grant and the MPI staff for doing this. I am thrilled at the chance. I am honored I was chosen. Check out their site, it is great. A lot of very useful information for models. http://modelpages.net/
