Thanks Tigerlily...what a biatch...

1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.

Okay, yall are going to laugh at the book closest to me. I wish it would have been something fun, instead it was a book called Breaking the Rules: Liberating Writers Through Innovative Grammar Instruction. Oh yes, so hot, I know.

"Some of the original sentences were written by students; others by professionals.
1a. His father said that he could go to the game on Saturday afternoon if he first
finished painting the fence.
1b. If he first finished painting the fence, his father said that he could go to the
game on Saturday afternoon.
2a. An excellent example of modern architecture, the new city hall is a favorite
tourist site."

And I'm not tagging anyone. I cant be bothered. Why? Cause neither can they. LOL...I don't think I have a friend that's not gotten this twice.

HGTV: Change the World

2007-12-16T09:12:00.000-08:00

HGTV's Change the World is now looking for a city to renovate. Southwest Atlanta is one of the areas voters are able to support. If Atlanta wins, Ron Clark (a well known teacher and philanthropist) and his team will create an education facility and green space that will benefit the entire community. This school will offer study abroad programs, top notch educators, as well as eco-friendly learning facilities. Help children in a low income community have the opportunity to experience a five star education.

Atlanta, of course, is not the only city on the list, but it is close to my heart because I am from Georgia and an educator as well. Please, everyone take the time to vote for your favorite city. Thank you in advance for your support.

Feed the Children Auction

2007-12-12T20:29:00.000-08:00

With the Holidays quickly approaching sometimes the stress of last minute shopping, decorating, and minute details get us down. I know I'm certainly guilty of forgetting sometimes what this holiday season is about, giving...and the world definitely makes it easy for us to forget that. That's why I'm excited to tell you about one of the wonderful things going on in Second Life: Oasis is having a designer auction to benefit the Feed the Children Foundation. I have volunteered to take part in the festivities.

When: December 15, 2007 from 5:00-7:00pm
Where: Oasis Coutyard

I know you guys want to know what I'm auctioning off. The highest bidder will get this:

If you cannot make the event at least take the time to check out Feed the Children or one of your favorite charities to find out ways to help those who are in need. If you have specific questions about the event IM Derrick Stewart in world. Thanks! xoxo

Eight Random Things (Thanks Simmy)

2007-12-03T19:05:00.000-08:00

1. I am afraid of driving. Only a handful of people actually knew that (until now). I got into a car accident when I was 18 and was never able to get over it. The odd thing? It wasn't even that serious...but now, anytime I try to drive, my heart starts pounding out of my chest and I feel like I'm about to vomit. This wouldn't be so bad if I lived in lets say...New York...but I don't. So, my husband and sister usually have the job of driving me around, which REALLY sucks. Especially since overall, I'm a very independent person. It drives me nuts that this ONE thing makes me depend so heavily on others.

2. I enjoy sickeningly sweet people. I don't mean the fake heffers you want to kick in the mouth. No, I mean the genuine ones that you want to just put in your pocket and keep forever. Mind you, I don't come across that type of person very often but when I meet them, I hold on to them for dear life. A good example would be my husband. He's one of the most selfless people I've ever met. Sometimes I feel like I have to protect him from the big bad world. I know he makes it a full time job of protecting me :-)

3. I want to grow up and be just like my mom....Err, minus her off color humor (too late) and need to redecorate every two weeks. My mother is one of those people who is a survivor. Her childhood was crappy, my bio dad left us after a twelve year marriage, we had no money and had to live in the "ghetto" until she put herself through college. To make matters worse....she was living with Lupus. She manged to turn every negative situation around into something absolutely fabulous. Meaning, that even with our struggles, she produced three, well rounded, AWESOME children who all have very successful lives. Because of her and my stepdad, most of my life seemed like smooth sailing.... even with everything going on. How many people are blessed enough to say that? I hope that when I become a mother that I have her strength and wisdom.

4. My sister and I are working on a teleplay. I really can't tell you what it's about or I'd have to kill you. What I can say, is that one day, our teen drama will be on television...We just have too many stories and T.V. junkie experience for it not to!

5. My favorite sound is scissors cutting carpet. I know, WEIRD! But think about it and you'll have to admit, the sound IS pretty cool.

6. I've always wanted to visit San Diego. It started with me meeting this guy from there and he made it sound like this heavenly place to live if you were into surfing, being cool and partying. Now, mind you...I don't surf, I'm not "cool" nor do I like most parties...but I'd like to spend one day in that "Don't you want to go to cardio bar with me and afterwards pick up some fish tacos" lifestyle.

7. I went to a performing arts high school. I wasn't in the program, I just happened to live in the district where the magnet school was located. I did try my hand at drama though. It was pretty fun. It's much easier to be in front of a lot of people when you're pretending to be someone else. I used to often wonder how shy people could be actors. That answered my question.

8. I REALLY REALLY enjoy music. I cannot sing, play an instrument, or even dance...but I love love love when I discover a new band. One thing many artists don't know...and I'm telling you now kids....If you want to be famous, you should send me your album. For some reason, any and EVERY "underground...look we're so cool we'll never go mainstream" band I ever got into became really big. I just have lucky ears. Trust me! Wanna know what kind of music I like? Check the very bottom of my blog :-D

And that is that. Great, now I have to pass this thing on to others:
Nalirra Rosewood
Tuli Asturias
Zoey Pinkdot
Rosie Barthelmess
Iris Ophelia
Elikapeka Tiramisu
Ana Lutetia
Elexor Matador

Vitamin Ci-Rachelle has a selection of 4 colorful sweater sets (Red, Purple, Gray, & Brown). They include a mock top, belted sweater & mod slacks. To compliment the slacks, there are also prim flares. You can wear the slacks with or without them. They're still hot!

Zhao-Clover comes in colors that compliment the Rachelle sets. Melanie Zhao makes our jaws drop again with her lovely detailed heels, straps and clasps...They also come with a script the let you bling, walk with sound, do a sexy walk, or NONE of these things. Gotta love options!

These items are sold separately and available @ Vitamin Ci's main store on the Hefferoo Sim. Enjoy! xoxo

Oops! My Bad Homie...

2007-09-26T19:23:00.000-07:00

If you bought any of the Tabitha outfits before 12pm SL time, put on your sweater and check around your neck (example shown). See a black spot? Yeah, I thought so. I'm sooo sorry. One of those goof ups that somehow got past me and no one noticed until my assistant said something. Please IM Ciera Bergman if you've already purchased this outfit and would like a replacement. I've corrected the issue. Some may be like, what's the big deal...but, I want to make sure I always give you my best.....Thanks for being a valued customer!

Tabitha

2007-09-25T09:12:00.000-07:00

No, she's not a witch....or maybe she is. Who knows but she definitely looks good! This outfit (Brown Shown) comes with a beautifully detailed sweater, modifiable slacks, and prim bells to lengthen the pant. I think you'll agree with me, Tabitha is fab. TP to Vitamin Ci on the Hefferoo sim to pick up one or maybe two of the 6 (brown, gray, electric, purple, sage, & red) luscious colors available today!

Get Fit @ Pixel Deep

2007-09-23T14:30:00.000-07:00

Ahhh, yes... Joannah Cramer has been busy on the Hefferoo Sim making a "fit" version of her lustre skin, this means more body definition. Ya likes? Well of course you do...and it not just ONE skin...The skin is mod so you can make it a darker or lighter shade....it also comes with 4 makeup options, different eyebrow colors, naughty down there hair colors, as well as different shaves. I mean after you've bought one skin you feel like you've done some serious shopping for a VERY reasonable price. Stop by Pixel Deep today. It's located in the back of Vitamin Ci's main store in Hefferoo (I'm sure you'll also like Joannah's facelift for her spot).

Additional makeups are on their way soon and I'll post and update as SOON as they're out. Enjoy xoxo

Fall for Emma

2007-09-15T12:29:00.000-07:00

Helllllloooo nurse...I mean, Emma. This new Vitamin Ci outfit has two different sweaters for fall...one that's cutoff and quite daring while the other is sexy because of how it curves the body...makes you really wonder...what's under there :-D Along with the tops come a pair of detailed slacks. I'm sure you'll fall in lurve with the six colors to choose from (Blue shown). Available @ Vitamin Ci's main store on Hefferoo! xoxo

Zhao Shoes @ Vitamin Ci

2007-08-29T07:47:00.001-07:00

Zhao Shoes are the newest addition to the Hefferoo Sim. Designer, Melanie Zhao, was kind enough to display her shoes upstairs in Vitamin Ci for my customers to enjoy their yummy goodness. Above is her newest pair of shoes: Ciera. Fab name for fab shoes! I love the instep texture and just ADORE the ankle clasps with the slightly wider heel. Classic retro, with Melanie's "now" flair....just timeless. If you try on a pair, you'll agree! Visit Zhao Shoes on the Hefferoo Sim...upstairs @ Vitamin Ci. Enjoy xoxo

New @ Vitamin Ci-Jeni v2.0

2007-07-22T21:48:00.000-07:00

One of my favorite outfits has always been Vitamin Ci-Jeni. So it's no surprise that when I've decided to discontinue some items due to my increasing abilities, I had to save Jeni. How? A remake with more detail! It comes with two jackets (one sheer and one solid), a top to go underneath, and a pair of slacks. Comes in 5 yummy colors (white shown). If you have the original Jeni outfit in any color and would like to upgrade, I'll let you until Wednesday, July 25th, if you IM me. Available @ Vitamin Ci on the Hefferoo Sim. ENJOY! xoxo

No Trans ITEMS...

2007-07-15T10:59:00.001-07:00

You'll see the above notice posted all over the Hefferoo sim, but just in case you've not visited in a while...here ya are! Items will be non trans/copy/prim skirts and selected items (like certain pants) mod. There are several reasons why I'm going this route. Here are a few of them: SL is borked often. I get at least one customer a day saying they didn't receive an outfit they bought. I'd feel a lot more comfortable handing the replacement over if I knew for sure they didn't just give it to a friend and are now expecting me to give them a new one. Most people are NOT doing that, I'm sure....but here's one way to be safe. Also, there are an increasing amount of resellers around, which would not bother me, except some charge more for my items than "I" do. Not cool. Soooo, here's your chance. If you'd like to buy any item while it's still transferable, you have almost two weeks. It also helps me get the word out so there are no surprises. Speaking of surprise...my addicts will get a little treat coming soon. I'll post more on that later ;-)

Tschuess!

Indyra...

2007-07-13T08:02:00.000-07:00

We're celebrating Analog Dog's Grand Opening on the Hefferoo Sim, Thursday @ 7pm SL time! Come join us with a chance to win cash prizes, clothes, and more! IM Kisa Doctorow or Ciera Bergman for a TP or any questions you may have about the event. I am very excited about this expansion and I hope to see you there! xoxo

You're Suspended!!!!

2007-07-05T08:43:00.000-07:00

YAY! I love this outfit...but, maybe I'm bias. Check it out for yourself. It comes with two tops (one shirt and one jacket layer), jeans, shorts for prim skirt, flex prim skirt and a loverly star tattoo. Available in 5 yummy colors (Purple/Teal shown) @ Vitamin Ci's main store on Hefferoo. ENJOY!

New Store on Hefferoo: Analog Dog

2007-07-03T23:28:00.000-07:00

There's a new store on the Hefferoo Sim, home of Vitamin Ci & Pixel Deep. Please welcome Analog Dog, owned by Queue Marlowe. Not only is Queue one classy lady, she makes some totally awesome hair for men and women! Her Flexi Hair is so fab, especially the curls. Don't miss out! TP to Analog Dog on the Hefferoo sim today. I have a feeling this is the beginning of a beautiful partnership.

This is a picture of both of us (Que's on the left and that's me on the right). Where's Jo? I dunno! But I do miss her and her picture will be put up soon as she comes back...

New @ Vitamin Ci-Thandi

2007-06-25T12:51:00.000-07:00

I'm a big fan of re-releasing, since I'm better at Photoshop and believe you deserve MY best. So anyway, I decided to re-do Verlanis (shown above). Verlanis seems to be a crowd favorite, especially with my lovely clubber customers, so I got to "redoin". By time I finished though, It was a different outfit altogether, not worthy of a 2.0 stamp (Verlanis will be soon be discontinued). So now, we have Thandi. It has 6 delicious colors (purple shown), includes a top, thong, leather capris, and little flex bows to hold it all together. Available @ Vitamin Ci on the Hefferoo Sim! Enjoy!

Summer Wear Party

2007-06-22T22:51:00.000-07:00

Another party @ Vitamin Ci to celebrate our newest outfit: Thandi! There will be a separate post about the item when it's officially released. As always, besides details below, there will be cash and door prizes throughout the event. IM Kisa Doctorow with any questions about this coming event! See you there!

Jahari...

2007-06-17T21:24:00.000-07:00

Jahari is the latest swimwear @ Vitamin Ci. And yes men, I didn't forget you with this outfit. There are matching trunks. It has a fun African Print, with 6 yummy colors: Blue (shown), Orange, Pink, Yellow, Green, and Purple. Available @ Vitamin Ci's main store on Hefferoo

Beach Party!!!

2007-06-14T23:22:00.000-07:00

Yes, there's another party @ Vitamin Ci! Summers can get slow in SL and to entertain myself AND you, my assistants and I are making sure that you have fun on the Hefferoo Sim! Our last event we had inside the store. Today we'll be having it on the beach, right outside the store. Yes, there is more to the Hefferoo Sim than Vitamin Ci. I hope to see you there!

PS: My latest swimwear for men and ladies will be released at the party :-D

Farrah

2007-06-10T13:39:00.000-07:00

Farrah is my 70's inspired outfit. One of my assistants wanted to do a 70's party...and I was like ummmm...I don't have any 70's outfits! So many people were asking for the Swirve top in different patterns and colors so I figured this would make everyone happy....The handkerchief top has a subtle paisley pattern and the bell bottoms have some not so subtle mod prim bells. I especially love the butterfly buckle on the belt as well as the butterfly tattoo that can be worn on the back. It's available in 4 awesome colors (Brown Shown). I hope you love this outfit as much as I do. Available @ Vitamin Ci's Main store in HEFFEROO!

ps: You may notice that my orange logo is different. Yes, yes...I'm changing my little man. Meet Ernge! Expect to see more of Ernge @ Vitamin Ci :-D

That 70's Event

2007-06-09T08:44:00.000-07:00

We're having another one of our fab events @ Vitamin Ci. IM Ciera Bergman or Kisa Doctorow for an invite or TP! As always, expect a few surprises. Details are below:

Give it to me Dyna!

2007-06-01T10:08:00.001-07:00

Introducing Vitamin Ci-Dyna. It comes in several sheer tank colors as well as short shorts. You can buy separately or as a pack. Available @ Vitamin Ci's main store in Hefferoo. Enjoy! xoxo

Vitamin Ci's Grand Opening Reflection...

2007-05-22T15:17:00.001-07:00

Oh, so many changes I've been through in the past few months! New friends, new sim, new chapter in my life. There's only been one constant, and that is my family. Why not? They have to put up with me! Anyway, most of you know that I had my grand opening on Sunday, but what had me all misty was my family! They threw a suprise Vitamin Ci grand opening celebration for me RL. I freaked! Like many other business people in SL I'm sure you've gotten the head scratching and puzzled look when you try to explain what you do on Second Life. My family was the same way until they saw how much work I put into it and what I was producing. Ever since then they've been behind me 110% and their party Sunday night proved it:

Look, they decorated one of our rooms. "Congratulations VCi"

Why? Cause it's good for you!

Ciera Bergman may be cute all day, but RL Calesta looked like she was suprised by this photo and on the computer all day (that white stuff all over me is homemade confetti)...Sorry kids, had to block me out. I have something against showing people my pictures unless I'm looking dead sexy. But you can see the fiance..he's hot :-D

Now, I'm sure you understand why I didn't do a step by step of the account of what happened at the SL Grand Opening when I had THIS to share :-)) I love you guys though...thank you sooooo much for coming! It made me feel so special that so many people love the store and care about my success. CHEERS!

Vitamin Ci-Class

2007-05-21T20:29:00.000-07:00

A good friend of mine, Tigerlily Koi, owner of Calla suggested I make an outfit that was a mixture of Kim and Rachel. Vitamin Ci-Class was born! It comes with a top (no mod/no copy/trans, mesh skirt (mod/no copy/trans), and flex prim skirt (mod/no copy/trans) comes in 6 colors (pink shown). Available @ Vitamin Ci's main store in Hefferoo!

Swirve....

2007-05-21T05:45:00.000-07:00

Yeah, so I'm bad at blogging. It amazes me how some can blog like 3 or 4 things at a time. I bow before them! Okay, so what's new? Lots...but let me start off with Swirve (more to come later). It comes with a pucci handkerchief top and hand drawn skinny jeans. Comes in 5 colors. It was one of the two fab outfits that were released during our grand opening (more grand opening info coming later today, too). Available at Vitamin Ci's main store in Hefferoo! I hope you enjoy!

Vitamin Ci Grand Opening

2007-05-19T22:41:00.001-07:00

Two new outfits will be displayed in several yummy colors. They will be blogged soon...but to get a first look...come to the sim! xoxo

Cayman...

2007-04-29T19:59:00.000-07:00

Yay, new items! Cay is the newest addition to Vitamin Ci. Issa Scaggs came up with the name. She said it reminded her of the Cayman Islands. I agree...I need a vacation...It comes with a top, capris, prim capri cuffs, and a flex belt. Colors: Orange, Green, Purple, Pink (shown), and Blue. Stop by the main store to pick up these goodies. ENJOY! xoxo

PS: As of this past Friday, I am officially a Middle Grades Education Teacher...certified to teach Language Arts and Social Studies...That long road to a B.S. is finally over...Masters (and chilluns), here I come :-D

Breezzzzzyyyy

2007-04-05T17:10:00.000-07:00

2007-04-02T12:48:00.000-07:00

...Yeah, I know. Don't hurt me! It's been a while....BUT...I have some goodies for you...WEEE! Vitamin Ci-Rachel. She's the classy chick that you know has lots of tricks up her sleeve. This outfit comes with a top, flex prim skirt, and a regular skirt that you can wear alone for a more pencil skirt look :-D

"Those must have been some strong genes..."

2007-02-28T19:07:00.000-08:00

Okay...so if you read my blogs often, you know I'm a big "America's Next Top Model" fan. I pick a model early and I stick with them til the end. AJ was my favorite last season and she didn't win...That sucked....And, although I'm excited about Diana and Whitney (the first plus sized models on the show) this season, I'm more excited about Jael. Jael is from Detroit. She seems a little rough around the edges (I like that) and she's a sweetie pie with a very unique look. When she told the panel she was half black/half german, I was wowed and thought about the possibilities of Jay (he's German)...and our baby looking NOTHING like me...but I digress. I hope she wins, because she's fierce without being a total biatch! Good luck to you. Jael...

Tankies for Seperates!

2007-02-19T06:53:00.000-08:00

As of late, there have been many customers requesting seperates. I decided to take a stab at it and do some tanks and shorts. The "Tankie" line has 4 set of tank top colors: Romance, Nights (shown), Naturals, and Royals. The jean shorts come in Black, White, Tawny, Brown, and Blue. Stop by and check them out @ Vitamin Ci's main store in Extraordinaire!

Why the 2.0's?

2007-01-17T20:14:00.000-08:00

Well, some people think that after making an outfit and getting better, that the old "ugly" ones should go in a vault and never be seen again. I disagree. The idea is still great and with a little more knowledge, you can make an outfit that looked "okay" and turn it into your current fabulous. That's what I've done with Vitamin Ci-Sporty v2.0. I've fixed up some thangs, made them pastel (Cotton Candy, shown), added socks and there you go! Customers are happy about the boycut shorts and I'm happy a good idea that started off with a cut off top and some boyshorts turned into something else...with a little bit of shading here and there! New Vitamin Ci-Sporty v2.0 is available @ my main store in Extraordinaire. Enjoy!

Oh My Neglected Men's Line...

2007-01-07T21:38:00.000-08:00

Heyas doods...and all the ladies who shop for their doods...I've made something new for...well yeah, doods! Vitamin Ci-Chris has a mock button up under a sweatervest and jeans :-D Comes in Gray (shown), Blue, Olive, and Red. I know it's been a while since I've actually designed a male outfit but since Lonewolf Mackenzie officially doesn't sell his menswear @ Vitamin Ci anymore (he has his own shop now and it's lovely..check it out)...I wanted to make sure that you all weren't neglected all together! Enjoy! :-D

PS: School is starting back...but it's my last semester...YAY!

Hallow Revisited...

2006-12-19T08:09:00.000-08:00

Many of you may already own the dress Vitamin Ci: Hallow...but you do not own it with a flexi prim skirt and scarf...you ALSO don't own the colors blue and black! Yes, I revisited Hallow, made some improvements and I have to say I'm pleased. I hope you are too. If you own Hallow (the brown one) already, IM me and I will trade you for the new version. If not...stop on by Vitamin Ci...ENJOY! xoxo
ps: My messages cap often..so if you don't catch me...IM again...I promise I"m not ignoring you.

Catherine

2006-12-18T07:23:00.000-08:00

If you haven't noticed, I've been trying some new things (a different style). Not to say I've perfected anything. For instance with the cut of the top; it does something weird near the straps that wouldn't bug most people but has bugged the heck out of me. Next dress cut like this I'll figure out a solution. Although new techniques will take tweaking--I am taking more risks. Hopefully those risks will produce some beautiful things. Vitamin Ci-Catherine has an old time feel with a modern touch. Sexy, yet classy, Catherine comes in three colors: Gold (shown), Silver, and Red. Each outfit comes with a top, two skirt legnths, and a flexi scarf. Items available @ Vitamin Ci's main store in Extraordinaire. Stop on by!

Correction...No Jolee Blue

2006-12-12T17:46:00.000-08:00

So, my addicts and a couple of people who heard by word of mouth this morning got a chance to take advantage of an 1L outfit from my store. Reason being? Well, after staring at the Jolee outfits, I decided that the blue one was just plain ugly. All the rest grew on me and I figured that soon that one would too...but, it never did...and I could not in good conscience have people spending that much money on an outfit of mine that I thought was ugly...sooo, I made another color: Olive. I put it in the pack and sold the blue one for 1L until I finished changing the advert for the outfits. I was surprised at the response for an 1L item. A customer named Candee bought her entire Lucky Chair crew with her; it was funny. At any rate, out with the Blue (except @ Body Perfect in their newbie section), and in with the Olive. It fits much better and now I'm in lurve! Enjoy!

Vitamin Ci-Jolee

2006-12-11T17:04:00.000-08:00

Alrighty! So, I tried something different. At first sight you may be like...meh! BUT...I promise you...it grows on you. It grew on me. Desigers...ever try to go one direction with a design and it takes you some place completely different. I was going for modern ...and I got Jolee. Comes in 4 yummy colors (Ginger is shown). Package has, top, shorts for prim skirt, and flex prim skirt. Buy indviduals or buy the pack. Available @ Vitamin Ci's main store in Extraordinaire. Check out the "new" section at the center of the store. Enjoy!

Argyle's not just for Grandpa

2006-11-28T11:44:00.000-08:00

Okay, so it's been 48 hours, I've not slept and all I do is pretty much turn in research papers and lesson plans...My days as of late really really suck....so um...I had to make myself feel better and take some time out to make summin....wha summin? ARGYLE...one of my addicts came into the store about a month ago and pitched a minor fit that we didn't have any...well guess what? Now we do. Imma keep this badboy short so I can sleep. comes with short sweater, long sweater, shorts for prim skirt, prim skirt, and socks. Available at Vitamin Ci's main store. Nite!

Bundle Up v2.0

2006-11-12T06:15:00.000-08:00

If you're a designer, I'm sure you've made something where at the time you thought it was the best thing since sliced bread, but then realized months later there are much needed improvements. It's not against the law to go back and revisit your designs to make them your best--especially if you've gotten better with technique. First, with this outfit, all I was going to do is change the skirt to flex. Then I thought about all the custom requests I recieved on this outfit when it first came out: sweater covering entire belly, pants and skirt options, more plaid please (Minx is always asking for plaid). So, instead of just flexatizing it--I redid the whole thing! Now each Bundle Up color includes two turtlenecks: one cutoff and the other long, a pair of slacks, shorts, and a flex prim skirt. There is also an additional pack of turtlenecks in bright colors as well. Check them out @ Vitamin Ci's main store on Ocean Drive. They're in the "new" section in the center of the store! ENJOY!

Unless it's slutwear, it wont sell...

2006-10-27T13:31:00.000-07:00

What do you think about that? No exposed belly or T&A...does that make for a sales disaster? Lots of people seem to think so. In a world full of slutwear and attatchable genetalia, a small population of people complain that they cannot find anything to wear. I remember when I first started Vitamin Ci...it was to cater to those people. The people who wanted more clothes on than not. A few days ago...a new person stopped by the store and asked...."Are there any clothes around that...covers up stuff?" Of course than was insulting to me because she was standing in MY store...and I don't sell slutwear...there are a few naughty things here and there but slutwear, NUT UH! After I made a few suggestions though, I got to looking around in my store. Sure, the quality of my designs have gotten better, but my skirts have gotten shorter, tops skimpier, and pants as low as they can go. Why? Because I started to cater to the bigger crowd, than the crowd my line was intended for. Here's an outfit for you all that wonder where the old Vitamin Ci went...Liz...comes in 3 colors (cocoa shown)available @ Vitamin Ci's main store in Extraordinaire.

I'm Miffed!

2006-10-19T09:06:00.000-07:00

Why, you may ask? ...and so what if you don't. My blog, my rants, k? My girl A.J. got sent home on America's next top model! What is that about?! She had a kickass runway walk AND she takes fabulous pictures. Okay, so she messed up in ONE challenge. Jada on the other hand hasn't had a great photoshoot YET. Why are they keeping her around? I don't hate Jada...I just love A.J. What were they thinking? She even won Top Model’s cover girl of the week the day she was cut. I guess the producers didn't want A.J. to win for whatever reason and wanted to axe her out while they had a chance. I think it was between her and Melrose all along. I would have loved to see those two opposites hash it out.... Now the heffer has no competition! Okay, maybe CariDee. We'll see. *Sighs* Bye A.J....believe me, you can still be a supermodel if it's something you want to pursue.

O...M...G! Hair Touching NO NO!

2006-10-14T12:12:00.000-07:00

I saw this video and I wanted to slap Barabra myself. I admired the class Brandy and Tanika Ray had in this incident. In most cases that could have turned ugly! Look at both of these women's faces when she initially touches their head. People...generally, have their personal space and I suspect hair pulling is a little too much for EVERYONE...but just in cas e it isn't.... A: Never put your hands in an African-American woman's hair unless she says "Touch my hair, please." (by the way, that's never going to happen unless you're a professional hair stylist). B: Never ask "Is that your real hair?" WTF? There's so many things wrong with that. Barbara Walters doesn't live in a bubble somewhere in Connecticut. She's a journalist that has been all over the world and encountered many cultures. She knows--she was just being....rude. Not cute Barabra...not cute at all!

The Wear and Terry of Wrinkles

2006-10-04T11:19:00.000-07:00

Um, yeah....I don't know what I'm talking about in that title either. But yeah! So....this is my new favorite outfit for a few reasons: it's simple, something I'd actually wear in real life, and...and...AND I successfully drew wrinkles. Yes, I know you're just as excited as I am...because these wrinkles are not scary...no no...they look nice...this would all be thanks to Starley's article in the current issue of Second Style. I'm not perfect at it yet BUT I've come a long way...and just think, during a time...where I have no time. Yes kids, I'm still in school...teaching my little rear off...yay! Speaking of teaching...We come to the dress name: Vitamin Ci-Terry. I named it after one of my loverly professors. Not because she's my favorite...not because she isn't...but just because I was thinking about an assignment in her class while making me creation. It comes in 6 lovely colors...and blue (I'll give you the blue one free if you IM me...I'm not going to sell it...I didn't like it so much). Stop by me store...today!

Fall Flava!

2006-09-17T20:06:00.000-07:00

Okay, so...I've not been making many things. RL though? A BLAST...yes, I'm extremely busy with lesson plans, crazy advisors, and even crazier chilluns....but it's a roller coaster ride I'm more than happy to be on. Why? SENIOR YEAR BABY!!! Err...yeah, okay so to outfit. Tried to make something "fall like" and came up with this yummy goodness, Vitamin Ci: Uptown....for the classy chick who loves casual...comes in many yummy colors...so stop by Vitamin Ci's main store on Ocean Drive and check it out :-D

Cheetahlicious

2006-08-19T09:45:00.001-07:00

Jackal Ennui, of Lassitude & Ennui, made these really hot high heeled sandals called Feral a few weeks ago and they were a must have. Even though I had nothing in a cheetah pattern I HAD TO HAVE these sandals...so I bought them, in hopes that I would have time to make something to match. Yesterday, my thoughts became a reality with Chee. Vitamin Ci-Chee comes in the Feral color as well as Red, Purple, and Black. It's quite a simple dress but as Nali put it "It's not your usual but it still manages to be sexy and classy". It's already recieved several thumbs up! Feel free to stop by the Extraordinaire sim on Ocean Drive and check out Vitamin Ci's "new" section. There you'll find me cats meow! ENJOY! xoxo

Lots of Thangs...

2006-08-10T13:28:00.000-07:00

...have been going on. Some of you may have noticed my abscence but most of you have not. I can tell by the large number of offlines wondering how I am (no, really I can't) :-))

Anyway, I've not been on SL so no designing...BUT...I have been enjoying myself RL. I threw a suprise birthday party for my mother last Saturday and that bought me to my parents home. I've not left since. Although they do have the internet, none of their computers have the capability to do SL (suprise, they're not big gamers), which is good for me, cause that means I haven't sat on me arse a lot-- but bad because I've not had a chance to create anything. Either way, the store has been doing great so I thank my customers for their continued support (especially with all the horrid updates I've heard about). If by some chance I didn't get a message from you concerning a purchase because of all the capped messages I recieved (again, not really) please let me know. I've responded to all the offlines that reached my yahoo mail so hopefully, I got to all of you :-D

Another great announcment is that my neice is okay--not that any of you knew she wasn't....Yesterday she choked on something, had to be taken to the emergency room, and it was quite hectic for all of our family. She's my ace! Thankfully, whatever she was choking on either was plastic, passed or she threw up (it didn't show up on x-ray), and all is well. She's back to being my little Yama (my nickname for her), avoiding my kisses, and using the "point and laugh" method when I pretend to cry about it. I have to give God a big thumbs up for working this out for me. Life wouldn't be the same without my Bri.

This weekend I'm heading to Florida to enjoy a little before "back to school" fun. I'm sure there will be plenty of excitment. I'll be staying at my grandmother's home that is haunted. Don't believe me? IM me sometime and I'll tell you the stories :-)) Alot of my family lives in Florida so I'm sure I'll get to see them at some point. If you see me online before Monday afternoon, it's either Lonewolf Mackenzie or Lollypop Extraordinaire. Both of them will be checking my sales and offlines periodically so I can keep the customers happy. See you all Monday! :-D

Who's Martha?

2006-07-28T07:58:00.000-07:00

She's sexy, classy, and a little on the preppy side. She's a nerd, she's the star, she's got spunk...she's you! Introducing, Vitamin Ci-Martha... I'm actaully quite pleased with how this turned out and it didnt' consist of me sweating over prims, thank GOD! The top and the skirt have the sweater pattern on it so you get the whole sweater-vest and button down shirt underneath, look. There's a little paisley detail on the cuffs of the sleeves and socks. Then you have argyle socks with that same argyle trim on the hem of the skirt. I lubs eet! I hope you do too...it's available in so many colors, you're bound to find one you like: slate, pink/green (shown), purple/mint, burgundy/pink, teal/tan, and red/berry. Available @ Vitamin Ci's main store in Extraordinaire. YAY :-D

Thank You, Shelley

2006-07-25T19:50:00.000-07:00

Shelley Pinkney was one of my first shop assistants. My store was half the size it is now, blue, and had a big ass orange in the center, waving at everyone. It looked like it was right off of a video game. Shelley would hold events such as treasure hunts, meet and greets, chat & coffee mornings, plus your run of the mill best in black club stuff. Those were the days: small, comfortable, and fun. We'd butt heads....OFTEN but we needed eachother. It's funny when I think back on all the petty arguments we used to have. She told me once "You don't thank me enough!" I rolled my eyes, sighed, and vowed to thank her EVERYDAY she was in the store. I did. I kept my promise. Right before our new store was underway, Shelley took some time off of SL, she hadn't been feeling well. She'd come on sometimes with an occasional hello, but she wasn't the 24 hour, Vitamin Ci Shelley I once knew. I couldn't wait for her to feel better and come back.

The day she'd come back and be my #1 never happened. She passed away July 15th of Lymphoma. Of course it took me a while deal with it. I'm not the type of person who talks a lot about death. I guess because the unknowns of it scare me. At first you feel a lot of regret...what you could have said/done differently. But, hopefully you get past that, and realize all the fun times you had...and we did have fun. She was so dedicated to me, my co-owner @ the time, Lone...and our store. I appreciated her so much! Today I put out a fountain in my store in rememberance of her (Thanks to Dyna Diller, Alyssa Bijoux, and Pennie Strauss). It's nothing grand...just very simple--something I can look at and smile. Thank you Shelley for being such a great person! You will be missed, but I'm sure heaven is a lot more fun than VCi! Aloha...my prayers are with your friends and family always. xoxo -Ci

It's Been a Minute

2006-07-22T12:04:00.000-07:00

Yeah, so with no outfit last week, I had to make up for it. I hope you all can forgive me...and if not...so what ho! Here's Flora...simple, flirty, and versatile. I give my models their outfits before they tp to my portable photobooth...seems to help with rezzing *shrugs*. One of my models, Zoey Pinkdot, showed up with her zillion piercings, dark makeup, with my prissy pink dress on....I was like...hmmm...put on some boots and I wont fuss about that...lol. The picture for it came out great (shown). Then you have the classy look and somewhere in between. Whatever works. I love me models! Also available in blue, red, gray, and white :-D Enjoy!

Conflict Diamonds

2006-07-12T08:25:00.000-07:00

What is a conflict diamond? Conflict diamonds are diamonds that are sold to fund the unlawful and illegal operations of rebel, military and terrorist groups. The countries most affected by conflict diamonds are Sierra Leone, Angola, Liberia and the Democratic Republic of Congo--all places where citizens have been terrorized, mutilated and killed by groups in control of the local diamond trade. Recently, some participating countries have started something called the Kimberly Process. The Kimberly Process accounts for more than 99% of their diamonds and insures they are non-conflict.

It's a topic that really concerns me because many conflict diamonds still find themselves in jewelry stores all over the world. Forget non-existent weapons of mass distruction. How about our funding terrorism by purchasing conflict diamonds? There are many comapanies around the world that cannot account for where their diamonds come from, according to a British based report by Global Witness: Bulgari, Cartier, and Harry Winston--failed to respond to Global Witness in writing about their policies on conflict diamonds and how they ensure that none are sold by their stores. U.S. jewelry chains, including Littman Jewelers, Whitehall Jewelers and U.S. department stores like Bloomingdales, Macy's and Saks Fifth Avenue, also failed to respond.

I hope this disturbs you and makes you want to take some sort of action, even if it's as simple as buying your diamonds from non-conflict diamond retailers, who also have documentation as to where their diamonds come from. Here's a buyers guide on how to purchase a non-conflict diamond. Information can also easily be found on google.

Not Quite A Kimono

2006-07-10T07:56:00.000-07:00

Vitamin Ci-Kim was one of those outfits where I set out to make something completely different and then, tah dah. Needless to say, I'm not disapointed. We have the vibrant japanese floral for the daring and white for the mild! Available in 4 colors @ Vitamin Ci's main store on Ocean Drive in Extraordinaire! Come visit us....Now, time to study for yet another test... GAH!
