Okay, now back to photos now that I have organizational obligations behind me. Yes, I’ve been told several times that this makes me look like Belle. That is one of my favorite movies so I take this as a compliment. This dress is from bossa nova and its proceeds go toward SHINE . SHINE is a seasonal Second Life fashion fundraiser for Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders.) Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) is an international humanitarian organization dedicated to providing health care to those in need.
