Elvis has left the building...



I hope that’s seriously not coming as any kind of news to you, if so, please accept my apologies and welcome to 2009! Although I missed his final pelvic thrust by a few years, I do have a friend who is an Elvis impersonator, and that obviously makes me an expert...right? Which is why it was so obvious to me that Elvis would have loved my new RJK2 jacket from sey…had there been several pounds of gold sequins added, of course, in lieu of sequins, sey gives you lots of attachments to play with, including a sweet jacket belt and two, different, resizable collars. I don’t generally dig pictures and slogans on my clothes, but I liked the funky collars and the black piping enough to override my prejudices - plus the picture is on the back and if you are checking it out instead of my arse when I walk by, something’s wrong with you….just saying.



In true Elvis fashion, I went to dig out my flared white pantsuit only to find Dove had used it as a grease rag while she was working on her Ferris wheel…kids nowadays! Instead of crying over spilled milk, I seized the opportunity to go shopping and voila - old stock denim from garage r.h - casual jeans, worn out in all the right places, and dark enough to suit my purposes, big arse cuffs on these bad boys though, almost 1950’s style, you know, like back when Elvis was hot. I knew that I needed black hair for my outfit, I could have tried one of the five hundred hairs I already have in my inventory, but that would have been taking the easy way out, and I'm never one to shirk my impulsive buying responsibilities. Thank you Sadistic Hacker and your Jetlink Hair in black for helping me complete my Dragon Ball Z Elvis…cus of course, that was his favorite cartoon ever…don’t believe me, don’t worry, I'll add it to his wiki right after lunch - isn’t the internet grand?



The next time someone accuses your mother of wearing combat boots, tell them, yes she does, and they’re the new short combat boots from Tonktastic - once they realize how brilliant these new boots are, they will wish their mum was so fashionably attired as well. These boots are scripted for both resizing and color change, with several options available...and that’s on top of the fact that they are amazingly detailed, which is par for the course for Tonk. If Elvis had been wearing these during his stint as a G.I., he may have gone regular army and quit his day job…heh. Finishing off my uber realistic Elvis 2009, I slapped on a new skin for effect…my koji skin was the perfect choice because everyone knows Elvis had some Cherokee in him, and Cherokee and Asian both share the letter…erm...well, I'd love to stay and chat but my peanut butter and jellybean sammich is done and I’m a growing pop icon!!

I want those shoes to look good on Dove. They are so cool. Tonk is the master of prims and textures, if that guy ever branched into casualwear or hair or something like that, he'd own the grid.
