649,275L for RELAY!

The Momento fashion show and auction ran an amazing six hours long! During that time, 649,275L was raised. That's over $2000 USD!

I cannot thank you all enough for the generosity, time, support, and most of all for showing cancer that it is not going to win this war!

Don't forget all of the jewelry items, including the Ode sets and pieces, and the artwork will be on display at Metro Models until Noon SLT on Tuesday. You can place silent auction bids for them up until that point.

Here's the slurl, so come on by now that it's less laggy! http://slurl.com/secondlife/Luxury/210/50/23

I know that more details of the event will be forthcoming from various sources, so I will leave the pretties for them to share with you. I just couldn't go to bed without expressing my awe, and my thanks to everyone who has supported us with this event! GO RELAY!!!

Much, much love!

Momento: Auction and Fashion Show Extraordinare!

As Captain of the Designers in Seclusion Relay for Life team, I would like to extend a personal invitation for all of you to join us today at the Momento fashion show and auction. Almost 50 designs will be hitting the runway and auctioned off during the show, including the last Fishook Dress.

There are also over 100 "Ode" pieces generously donated by Random Calliope's butterfly hunters. Among them are eight complete sets, and a "Shades of Golden" piece.

There are other hard to find, and one-of-a-kind jewelery pieces as well that will be on display. All jewelry will be auctioned via silent auction due to the overwhelming number of pieces.

I will be your hostess for the event, and your official auctioneer. I hope you can join us for this amazing collection to benefit the American Cancer Society! You can pick up a HUD Alaska has made which has pictures of all the fashions to be auctioned at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Calla Lily/128/110/35 to get a head start! (Unfortunately the jewelry just didn't make it in - again due to the sheer volume of pieces. Ode hunters rock!)



Designers in Seclusion Relay for Life Team and Metro Models are Extremely Proud to Present to You

Calla is hiring!

I've decided to open to applicants for customer service positions within Calla. Katoria Stevenson is my store manager, and totally rocks. She's awesome, and because she knows the vendors inside out, she's able to quickly act anytime there's an issue with the vendors (which is usually my fault – if it's scripted, I can break it) and is fabulous with customers. So you will be working directly with her as well.

Always Loveless has also been on as a customer service rep for several weeks, and she is super awesome. She's friendly, and helpful and knows the ropes. She has great ideas and shows a lot of initiative!

If you are interested, the details are below. Have a look, and follow the instructions. I will start setting up interviews next week.

(Thank you to those of you from my group who have submitted applications already! I have been through them and will be contacting some of you this weekend.)


Job requirements:

~ Must be proficient adjusting prim hair (you will have to pass this test!)
~ Must be able to explain to someone else how to adjust their own hair (you will have to pass this test, too!)
~ Must be knowledgeable of the selections and styles available at Calla (see above!)
~ Must be friendly and approachable but not overbearing
~ Must have a rez date of March 1, 2008 or prior
~ Must be able to follow instructions
~ Must be reliable and trustworthy
~ Must be willing to share ideas, suggestions, and share customer feedback with me, Katoria, or both of us
~ Must be able to accept constructive criticism
~ Must understand that RL is *always, always* first

(More than one language is a plus, but is not required)


The first two weeks will be a trial period during which payment will be in the form of Calla Store Cards. After the initial two week period, payment will be 200 L$ per hour. Clock-in will be required and payment given at the end of your shift. You will also receive all new releases in the pack option of your choice. Other goodies and presents/bonuses/etc will be handed out at random.
