An important and truly breathtaking one-of-a-kind metallic gold lamè trained couture dress custom-made for icon Yma Sumac. This ultra rare masterpiece dates back to the mid 1950's. Yma Sumac (1922–2008) was a noted Peruvian soprano and the original Queen of Exotica. Her international fame began in the early 1950's and she became the most famous proponent of exotica music. She is remembered best for her extraordinary vocal range, which was well over four and a half octaves. She was also quite the fashionista, and in 2010 'V' fashion magazine voted her one of the top 5 World Muses! 

Crafted from opulent metallic gold lamé, the dress features a seductive sculpted low-plunge bustier bodice with inner boning construction and a padded bust for a flawless, figure-enhancing fit. The garment's most striking feature is the unique, fluid train, which offers endless styling possibilities. Whether draped around the neck as a dramatic scarf or left flowing in a cascade of liquid gold to the floor, the train enhances it's unique 'Old Hollywood' allure. The front slit, combined with the gown’s sleek, hourglass fitted silhouette, offers a quintessential femme fatale vibe—effortlessly glamorous and impossible to ignore. As Damon, Yma Sumac's personal assistant, told me, "Yma loved elegance mixed with a touch of exotic. I was fascinated to see how much effort was put into each piece and what was added inside for the perfect physique". A piece like this is more than just a dress—it's a true work of art and a rare treasure that encapsulates Yma Sumac's extraordinary life both on and off the stage. This one-of-a-kind creation is a testament to her timeless elegance and the lasting impact she made on the worlds of both music and fashion. An iconic slice of 'Old Hollywood' glamour that would be an epic red carpet look.

Living In A Crazy World
Format: Paperback
It does seem our world has gone crazy, especially for those of us who grew up in the 1970s and 80s. Of course, this is all expected but Bible prophecy. This book deals with how we as Christians should be during this times and watch for deception in the church. Seeking discernment and restoring folks to the truth. Renner does a good job of breaking down bible verses in the context of the Greek meaning of words. This study as it seems is a good accompaniment to bible study. The only downside would be the repetitiveness, especially at the beginning, but can see how saying the same or similar thing over and over is to drive home a point.

Another Classic
Format: Kindle
I love Rick Renner’s book, and this one doesn’t disappoint. We definitely need a revival of the Bible in our country, or homes and families, and the church. But we are reminded in this book that we are not just called to shake our heads in wonder, but are called to play a part in reversing the works of the enemy.

God's love for us & His power to help us & help others!
Format: Kindle
Must read for all Christians. We must be more aware of what Satan is doing in our world everyday. We must draw strength from our God to ward off Satan's attempts to change our Christian values in these, the last days. Pray for strength and guidance! Scripture references support his text.
