    Default Help me reinvent my image....

    I'm from a tiny village in Alaska, and I grew up on a remote subsistence trapline. Instead of being a little wierd because of this, I want to start banking on it.

    Pale skin, dark furs... what do you guys think? I can't think of any sex symbols that have this image, but I think the archetype does exist, so can you guys, ya know, just tap into that archetype and tell me what it brings to mind? What type of outfits? Music? Anything?

    Thanks.

    It reminds me a warrior. Like an eskimo viking. I picture, long, long hair, some type of fur bikini (and maybe fur leg warmers too).

    Bjork meets Xena warrior princess.

    Music... no clue for that! Maybe Led Zeppellins... "I come from the land of the ice and snow ..." (I cant remember the name but its bad ass" or Wolfmothers' "Woman" (both bad ass rock and roll tunes)

    I'm not Nordic at all but I frigging love that song. I think it's about how the Vikings made signifigant incursions into the New World but history has forgotten that...

    Jack London's writings would be a good reference point for this concept...He wrote a great short story about a lesbian that offers a share of her holdings to the story's narrator...He passed on the deal but he tells people about her because she was so impressive!

    As for outfits...leather, beading, some metal...& Some vintage-styled clothing (think Gold Rush/ Yukon Territory dance hall girls)...

    I think I need something softer that Xena. Like, "me stupid girl in fur, you big man." I'm googling but I can't find anything...

    Thanks for the Jack London reference, Maxine...

    How about being a Snow Queen?

    There's a hypnotic song by Evanescence called Snow White Queen that would do nicely.

    Another thought for music would be Hazy Shade of Winter.

    Anything furry, but rich looking, and rhinestones to represent ice maybe? But regal looking if you can get what I mean.

    Well, it's not really Alaskan, but the first archetype I thought of was Ayla from The Clan of the Cave Bear (I think that's the movie). It's been a long time since I've seen so my memory's a little dusty, but Darryl Hannah played Ayla who was kind of like this sexy primitive babe. And I don't really remember the sypnosis too well, but I think it was about how she came into her courageous womanhood or something like that.

    Anyhoo, I vaguely remember a skimpy little primitive style outfit (tan color I believe). Forgive me if I'm getting this all wrong, like i said, it's been a while....

    The first thing I thought of when I read this was Raquel Welch from One Million Years. B.C.
    "Travel back through time and space to the edge of man's beginnings... discover a savage world whose only law was lust!"

    ^ that was the movie's tagline.

    Immigrant Song is the one you're all thinking of. Led Zepplin would be most excellent for this look.

    You should totally read Venus in Furs by Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch. I don't think a cavewoman image is going to earn you much money, honestly. Try being a glamorous goddess in furs instead!

    Yeah, I'm not really going for cavewoman. More, just, a little exotic (people tend to think I'm from a foriegn country anyways). And, when I work hunting/fishing seasons or the midwest where they heartily appreciate that kind of thing, a little of that, like, "this is the glamourous stripper that could go hunting with you... and can't you just see her laying on the furs by the campfire..."

    Yanno? Or is this such a tiny archetype that no one else would get it?

    I think you could totally bank on it. Maybe pick outfits that are neutral/earth tones with a bit of texture (like that faux suede) and have fur (real or real looking) accessories. Add small accents of rhinestone and pearl. RED lipstick and brown/neutral eyemakeup with red or natural nails.
    Personality: motherly, intelligent (especially about nature , which should be easy for you), "earth goddess", weathers adversity easily, classy yet down to earth.
    I hope you get what I mean. I think this would fit you so well that even if they didn't get the actual archetype, the whole package would be so appealing to so many men you'd make money anyway.
