"Shine" Doctors without Borders Event in SL


What are the holidays and what do they mean to you? besides good food, presents and all the other trimmings? simple answer really, it is the need to open your hearts and give to those who don't have the essentials for a quality life. Recently I was asked by my good friend Oryx Tempel of International House Of Style if I would be interested in participating in an event called "Shine". To be honest I haven't really been involved in charities as not knowing where or how the proceeds where heading and who actually benefitted through them, I did research.

Shine is an organization that helps Doctors without borders. Expediting much needed medics and medicines to those in the poorest of countries and or are victims of natural disasters such as floods in Haite which has left its children starving to death. These are images that gripped my heart and telling me damn! I can make a difference even if small.
So for this years "Shine" theme which is "Peace" I have created a one of a kind collection of fine prim snowflake jewels to fit within the theme. Snowflakes? you bet ;) what is more peaceful than snow falling quietly and effortlessly? is their anything more quiet than everything coming to a standstill so as you don't hear a sound? to be surrounded in nature that is slowly being blanketed by the crisp cold snow? each snowflake that falls is a different gem. There are no 2 flakes alike. Each rare and glorious as the next. It is my hope that these precious children and their frightened parents shall find some kind of peace in their life.

The Winter Rose Collection is one of a kind. Like the flakes the fall to earth. There will never be another sold. It is to be put up for auction at the Shine Event in Second Life. This formal jewel collection includes a gorgeous platinum tiara, 2 armlets for past the elbow evening gloves and a beautiful necklace. You will never see metal textures twinkle and shine the way these do. I spent alot of time to perfect these jewels for this event. For details on when and time for the fashion show, Please contact Oryx Tempel of International House Of Style!

I hope you have a beautiful and very warm holiday season. Stop in to see what is new at Worldly Treasures and Kia Greyskin :)
