Flying

This look is inspired by roller derbies and how I used to go to roller skating rings. It used to make me really happy, like I was weightless and could fly. I have since out grown my skates, and most likely lost the skill and balance to after all these years, but I will never lose the fond memories of it.

One of my posts for both the Manga Fair and the Naughty Nitch Fashion Fair opening up July 1st. I'm going to have my hands full keeping up with my post quota. I was really pleased with how this look came out while still being colorful and fun. The location I took it had a beautiful skybox with a very beautiful backdrop in it. Certain parts of the floor glow as you walk across it. It's absolutely a stunning store. They also have a lot of freebies at Pixel Junk Mainstore for the Curious Chinchilla and other furry avatars. 

July 1st has so many events going for it and the SL11B continues until July 5th. I'm pretty sure everyone is really busy at the moment with blog posts, designing, or even just doing the hunts. 

One event I am particularly excited for is one I am running. Today at 6 PM SLT the Harajuku-Lolita's Union will be holding their first meeting. Discussions will range from what we want from the group, the next poll we will vote for, hunts and events we are looking forward to, and so much more. I'd like it if everyone came every Sunday at 6 PM SLT. Please bring your thinking caps. Everything in this group is decided by the players by a vote. We have grown to 166 members, all of which participate and enjoy the shelter for homeless cute boys and girls, the shopping locations, our various hang out areas, the free to use blogger box, and so much more.

This week has been really, really busy for me. We finally got the land at the Harajuku-Lolita's Union, and it is really getting a great start for only being open for a few days. Though we only have a small homestead, a choice that was decided by a vote of our members, we're still very happy and we've had a very positive response from everyone. Many of the rentals went out in the first they opened up. I've been trying to keep up with the demand, but we have enough prims and space for everyone, thankfully enough, and I can set out more booths. The price for the booths is currently $50L a week for 15 prims. This really helps us out with the rent. 

There is also an event going on that is more important and more charitable than the Lolita's Union Shelter and Meeting Place. The Fashion for Life Charity Event goes from June 7th to June 20th and 100% of all the funds raised go to the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life. Please think about taking some of your lindens there and helping out -- you'll not only get some really nice things, but you will be helping fight the fight against cancer. Even a mere one dollar can help out; even if you're poor on SL, think of at least donating two or three linden to those in need. If everyone on SL did that, that would be more than a million lindens going to this great cause. 

As for the Lolita's Union, I spent a long time decorating the place. Our new home is low poly, low impact mesh, letting us not only be lag free but it also allows us to keep a lot of prims open. We've had a really strong turn out of people hanging out at the Shelter for Cute Boys & Girls as well as participating in discussions in the outside hangout areas. Today they were discussing the E3 Super Smash Brother's Tournament, which was awesome to participate in. 

Thank you everyone for the support. The proceeds from the rentals and tips help us pay rent, furnish the place, and keep up with costs with search engine promotion. I'm telling you now, we are not profiting a dime from this; I even spent my $300L a week allowance towards getting a teaset for the union's tea parties. I'm so happy to do it though. We saw a need for a hangout and home for our cute lolita, harajuku, and cosplay friends, and we provided it. 

If you haven't joined already, the group is called the Harajuku-Lolita's Union. We are a small group of 147 people, but we are steadily growing, and the group is active with many happy participants in the group chat and at our discussions and mini-meets. It is free for kawaii, cute, lolita, and harajuku designers to advertise in and bloggers are allowed to link to their posts once a week in notices and once a day in group chat. This helps keep our community close and keeps us updated with all the cute stuff like Dolly Loli provides to you, my beloved readers. 

Thank you always for reading,
