Some rambling and Vanity Hair contest!

Hello,


Today I will post my picture submittions for the first ever Vanity Hair Contest! You can submit a total of 5 pics. I was planning on doing the 105 classes this weekend but AGAIN got caught off. Haaving sl connection and avatar problems. Is anyone having those much lately by the way? My latest problem is that my avatar seem to by a few feet off the ground and cant get it right :/


Well anyways in the mean time while I resolve that problem I couldn't sit and do nothing so I worked hard on getting 5 pictures for this exciting contest. I know I can always get better and I am not at the level I want to be but I am improving. Practise practise.


Also I went to an extra runway class with the oh so amazing Kay Fairy and learned alot!

Inspiration
Ashanti people of Ghana


A similar yet not a duplicate of the Ashanti clothing. I let my creativity go with the colors of the Ashanti flag (specially yellow and green ) and the colors on different photo's I could see, these not just of women but also men. Of the colors I saw, the brown and different shades of orange colors caught my eye. Also not to be left out, the beautiful gold accessories that are often used as adornment. 


To get this look I mixed Purple Moon's  Sunshine in Green & Brown with  Sunshine in Yellow and Sienna. I used an Overt scarf and textured it with a texture I got from KKD african rugs plus I give it some yellow color for it to mix with the dress. This I did to give the look some influences of Kente cloth. Kente cloth is the best-known African textile and one of the most admired fabrics in the world. It was originally worn only by the royal family and high-ranking people in Ashanti society.
I also used the texture/color change Badu turban from the 2011 summer collection of Lelutka, which also has an amazing texture and has some similarities with Kente cloth. For a change of color I choosed the orange like color. 
To give it more edge and fierceness I added the feathers of Venetian masquerade mast The raven of Avid clothing, to which I also added some yellow color and has a wonderfull gentle movement as I walk. In front of the feathers you can see part of the Queen of hearts Crown piece from the red outfit Queen of hearts of Purple Moon. I edited this part so it can fit perfectly with the feathers and give it a yellow shade.
For accessories I used the Chop Zuey bracelets Death by Rickshaw and NY girl Nolita Nights by Chop Zueyand the Anemona Ivory necklace from Kunglers who has a beautifully green and gold color. Last but not least I am 
wearing sandals of Finesmith Designs, Sahara Natural.




Akyire,  see you later

Sneak peak Essence of Ebony contest

Hello all,

So I am one of the 24  contestants of miss Essence of Ebony and I am excited for the show today at 1pm SLT. I have been working hard on my look and I am so looking forward to meet all the other girls on this day. And of course I got some sneak peak ;)
We needed to create a look based on the choosen country. I am proudly doing Ghana :). I liked it so much that I even created another look and I will show this. The first look I am not going to show because that is what I am going to wear for the contest. So if you would like to come see 24 beautifull ladies representing their choosing country don't hesitate to come, its going to be amazing!


Sneak peak stage:



And....a picture of my second outfit inspired by the flag of Ghana:




'God bless our homeland Ghana,
And make our nation great and strong,
Bold to defend for ever
The cause of Freedom and of Right'

I am wearing a mix of gowns inspired by The flag of Ghana.


The flag was adopted after Ghana gained independence from the British and hence the use of the color red in the flag signifies the blood of the martyrs in the freedom struggle. Gold denotes the mineral wealth of the country and green is the symbol for its rich natural vegetation. The black star is said to symbolize the lodestar that was used in the freedom struggle.
To bring out these colors with a powerful meaning to all the people of Ghana I choosed to wear the amazing Serafina gown of Purple Moon. To get this color mix, I am wearing from top to toe; Serafine in ruby, gold and emerald. To resemble to Black star on the flag I have a hair adornment of Purple Moons Edelweiss in black, a gown specially desgned as the National Gown for Miss Germany, Leandra Breen. This represent the lodestar, a relatively bright, easily found star that is used to find direction. To lead the way to inspiration and the right path. Accesories used are Finesmith Amor’ e necklace, earings and bracelets. Je suis nails and Aleida's Malene pumps in mustard.




Thanks for reading and here is your  limo to go see this interesting show, Essence of Ebony! You are cordially invited :)

See you there ;)
