This month Second Style Magazine celebrated four years of success with a special addition of the annual Stylies Awards. Much to my surprise I returned from vacation to discover that I had won the Best Female Blogger award. Since I was away for 2 months I didn’t know anything about it, so when I found it in my inventory I was so shocked I plurked about it…and then everyone laughed at me. :P

Thank you to all those that took the time to vote for me, as well as all of you for reading and supporting this goofy blog of mine.

I have to admit, this blog has really assisted me to unleash this creativity within me that I didn’t even know existed and it has also helped me in other aspects of my life as well. Not only do I use it as an outlet for my creativity, but the funds I earn from the advertising on here are also assisting me with a RL project that I am currently working on.

So even though I blog purely for my own satisfaction, knowing that y’all appreciate it makes it all that more fulfilling. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you! <3

Read the names of all the other Winners in the 38th issue of Second Style Magazine. pages: 32-33

Happy 4th Anniversary Second Style!

BTW I added a Google Friend Connect gadget in the sidebar for fun ————————->
(I know I’m totally gadget happy and my sidebar has become insane) please hit it if you like my blog. I’d love to get to know all those that are reading. Thank you! <3

Today is Zaara Kohime‘s RL birthday and she has no idea the reason I asked her to pose for this pic with me was so that I can announce it to the whole grid! Everyone please harass her in IMs for me today, so I can get my revenge for all the years of torture I have put up with! :P muahahah

But in all seriousness, thank you Zaara for always being there for me, listening to me rant and blabber for hours on voice and IMs and giving me important advice and guidance. You are truly inspirational and I hate your guts for being so talented! <3

Every year around her birthday, Zaara decides to give a present to all of us by having a 50% off sale on everything in her store. The {Zaara} sale started on June 5th and will run till June 13th. But not only do we have the sale, we also have a special style contest on flickr and have already gotten some great entries. For more information about the sale and the style contest, read Zaara’s blog and please pay close attention to the rules of the contest before entering.

Both the sale and the contest will end on June 13th, 11:59pm slt. So you only have a few more days left. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to shoot me an IM!

Happy shopping everyone and Happy birthday to the besterest friend ever! <3

“I like a man with a tan and a twisted chrome kickstand
Leanin’ on a big old bike
The low rollin’ sound that’ll shake the ground
Comin’ out of long pipes
I like a tattoo or two
Or even more if they’re cool
On the big old arms of a long-haired dude
Inside of me, there’s an all I wanna be
Biker chick chick”
Jo Dee Messina

P.S. Mr. Revolution refuses to acknowledge me and even unpartner me if I do this post, so I’m accepting applications for a new partner now. LOL Please drop your notecards on Strawberry Singh!
P.P.S you must like biker chicks cuz I can get used to this look. :D

Olive Juice is definitely one of my top five pose stores. I just love IsabellaGrace Baroque‘s creativity in not only her poses, but the props that she uses and even her vendor images. Using her poses and props is always quite the adventure because she’s got simple fashionable poses and then there are others that are just out of this world. So if you want to be a country girl, a zombie or even a secret agent man, I am positive you will find something to your liking at Olive Juice.

Happy Love Thursday everyone! <3
