FASHION & POETRY: “Hope” by Emily Dickinson Starring RicoRacer Flux

MODEL & PHOTOGRAPHER: RicoRacer FLux

FASHION: I absolutely LOVE this gold sexy shorts from Champagne! Sparkling fashions. The texture just shines and they come in many colors. The”package” looks realistic and the bow string adds a nice touch. I think it looks great wearing it to the beach or to the clubs. It has versatility. This is my very favorite boots from REDGRAVE. There are so many amazing little details; I really love the buckles. The texture just screamed expensive Italian leather. Jewelry is from GABRIELS, Takuya Jinn is just amazing with jewelry and clothing. Hair is from MADesigns which completes the look of total masculinity. =p

SHORTS: Champagne! Sparkling Fashions

INFO: I am learning the very basic Photoshop right now and this picture is my very first attempt. It is basically just Trial and Error. LOL. I wish I have someone to show me the ropes. Oh well. Anyway, I am so proud of it. =D Yay!

POEM: HOPE

POET: Emily Dickenson

“HOPE”

“Hope” is the thing with feathers—
That perches in the soul—
And sings the tune without the words—
And never stops—at all—

And sweetest—in the Gale—is heard—
And sore must be the storm—
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm—

I’ve heard it in the chillest land—
And on the strangest Sea—
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumb—of Me.

Poem by Emily Dickinson

RicoRacer Flux’s “The Journey”: I’m really excited this week because I made it as a Finalist for the MAD Agency Model Search.  There are so many talented models on the list competing and I am nervous. I need to bring out my inner styling guru again and hopefully gain a spot in the agency. If not, I am always grateful for the opportunity and will try again next time. I hope they will understand my styling. I tend to go for flashy unique couture even for a male model. LOL. Think Alexander McQueen. This should be fun. =)  CONGRATULATIONS to all the finalist and Good Luck.

FASHION & MUSIC: Whitney Houston & Mariah Carey’s “When You Believe” Starring RicoRacer Flux

MODEL: RicoRacer Flux

PHOTOGRAPHER: Talyia Tarber

FASHION: CHAMPAGNE! Sparkling Fashion’s The Prince of Egypt. The wonderful and super talented designer Enzo Champagne made this exquisite outfit for me as MR. Egypt in Mister Virtual World 2010. It is truly fantastic with highly detailed features such as the golden snakes that surrounds the Egyptian headpiece, shoulder guard and arm bands. The cape attached to the arm bands show dramatic flair and flows with movement. I had the honor of naming this glittering golden creation: THE PRINCE OF EGYPT. I’ve received so many compliments regarding this outfit at MVW and it was an honor to wear it. Watch out, It will be out soon in the store. Thank You So Much, Enzo. =) You are just awesome.

MUSIC: When You Believe

ARTISTS: Whitney Houston & Mariah Carey from The Prince of Egypt soundtrack

LYRICS:

WHEN YOU BELIEVE
Many nights we prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood

Now we are not afraid
Although we know there’s much to fear
We were moving mountains
Long before we knew we could
(Oh yes)

There can be miracles when you believe
Though hope is frail its hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe
(oh yeah)

In this time of fear
When prayers so often proved in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away

Yet now I’m standing here
My heart so full I can’t explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I’d say

There can be miracles when you believe (when you believe)
Though hope is frail its hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve (you can acheive)
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe

They don’t always happen when you ask
And its easy to give in to your fears (oh)
But when your blinded by your pain
Can’t see your way straight though the rain
Thoughts of a still, resilliant voice
Says hope is very near (yeah yeah)

There can be miracles (miracles) when you believe (lord when you believe oh ho)
Though hope is frail (though hope is frail) its hard to kill (it’s haaaard to to kill oh oh)
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
somehow you will
You will when you believe

You will when you believe
Just believe (2 times)… (oh yeah)
You will when you believe

RicoRacer Flux “The Journey”: Today was the Mister Virtual World 2010 competition and I won Second Runner Up.  I am extremely happy and grateful that I made it to Top 3 especially since I’ve been terribly sick with the H1n1 flu all week and I suck at interviews. LOL Congratulations to all the finalists: what a bunch of truly talented and terrific men. It was truly an honor to compete and be a part of this wonderful experience. Congratulations to Mikey Batriani as the new MR Virtual World 2010.

I want to take this time to thank so many people who stood behind me and made this possible. Thank you to my FACT family and friends who I truly love and adore. I’m so lucky to be part of your lives. Thank You to all the designers who took the time and effort to make the outfits for MVW. Special Thank You to Enzo Champagne, Edo Tone, Squinternet Larnia, and Noveen Benoir. Thank you so much to Arisia Ashmoot who did such a great job with my National Costume & Formal Wear Poses. Thank You to July Raymaker who did my Swimwear poses. I thank everyone for their support and well wishes. =)

Now, I need a LOOOOOONG break from modelling in SL. =)
