Mea Culpa – Hot Flamenco Nights? ;)

by

Latest news from Mea Culpa 🙂 I am happy to be allowed to show you the last 2 creations of Tatanka Kaligawa, designer and owner of Mea Culpa. The first one is called “Baile Flamenco” and it really is what it is called. A wonderful red gown with a long train in the back, awesome ruffle parts and decorated with beautiful flowers.

If you take a closer look you can see how much Tatanka cares about details and the eye for the extravagant styles. The ruffles are wonderful made with shadows and lights and the flowers add an amazing “Flamenco Feeling” 😉 The head decoration as well made of flowers is part of the whole outfit.

The second outfit carries the wonderful name “Night Spell” and it is a very elegant and extravagant gown. Petals and ranks are all over the black beauty. The skirt and the hat are mainly opaque while the top has a wonderful laced part, that I would like to show a little closer.

The delicate lace top shows again the amazing skills of Tatanka Kaligawa if it comes to ideas and texturing 🙂 round the waist additional to the great flexible prims you have kinda golden belt, very filigree and again in shape of many little petals. The wonderful veil adds again some elegance 🙂 As well Mea Culpa released some new shows but this will be one of my next posts 😉

Wicca’s Wardrobe: LOTD 6/11/2011

by

The fact , that I got disconnected today for a longer time and that I anyways was lightly upset lately about a few things brought me back to a few pics I shot yesterday. After a day full of people who tried to make me angry and treat me like a fool, I had to style a new Wicca’s Wardrobe outfit. In every academy in SL that is related to modeling or fashion we are told to be unique, and style outfits to sell them off on stage during shows… and if you do so, you might get told that , that you are too extravagant and maybe should go more like “girl next door” or even not being that crazy with stylings so that you please do not stand out too much. I agree to a point, that you try to make the outfit center of view… but does that mean you have to get boring? Maybe visions get parted about humans being different in mind… even that is a point I agree with, not everybody has the same likings. But does that mean one is right and one is wrong?

Anyways, I just had to set my crazy mind free again with a style that came to my mind a few days ago and it felt kinda making peace with my own day after getting upset about so many things 🙂

The dress I bought longer ago and while I was sorting my inventory lately it fell again in my hands. It is made by [ORTA] and carries the name “ECHO gown in sorrow”. It contains stockings, panties, garters, top and 2 different hoods that are made of 2 attachments. The basic black color of the dress is wonderful ornamented with flowers and leaves all over. For the jewelry I chose one of the latest Inspiration sets of Finesmith Designs, the “Inspiration Shena”. It contains earrings, bracelets, necklace, shoulder parts (not shows in this pics) and the incredible awesome forehead piece. The shoes were one of the latest group gifts from N-Core. The skin is one of the “Castalia” line of Glam Affair, combines with a black hairbase from Baiastice and the cool horns I got longer ago at LeLutka.

Ok that really helped to calm down and get in a better mood 🙂 and my internet seems to be back up, lets see what my inventory holds in its depth to fool around with 😉

Angel Dessous – New Black Couture Line!!!

by

Lately Angel Dessous released a new Black Line with 3 wonderful outfits in black red and white. Today I would like to show you 2 of them in black. Lets start with the “Chess” outfit, that as well can be seen in the first picture.

“Chess” is an awesome knee-long dress, shoulder free with an amazing prim attachment. The dress it self on the first view looks very simple but as well it shows the elegance of simplicity. 🙂 With “Chess” you are definitely dressed right for every party or event. It is the “little black” that can be worn always and for everything 🙂 I added the new “Berry Blossom” set made by Finesmith Designs, the “Painter” fingernails as well from Finesmith and the “Sakura Boudoir” hat from the Boudoir hat collection.

The hair comes from Baiastice and is called “Fujiko”. The wonderful matching eye ornament was made by Talyia Tarber for her store Garded Secret.

My second outfit for today of the new Angel Dessous Black Line is named “Devine” and for this blog I chose the black version. “Devine” you can as well purchase in the blood version. This outfit has 2 possibilities to wear. one with a laced jacked and one without 🙂 I decided to wear it without for that blog post 🙂

The short dress has really an awesome couture touch with the awesome edgy attachments like the skirt and the shoulder parts/ neck part. The great corset that ends under the chest adds a very sexy touch as well. To hide my private parts and keep it PG for the blog post I took skull pasties made by Redclaw Inshan , designer of R:A:D. The sweet wrist ruffles usually are thought as an addition for the sheer jacket version but I could not go around to use them nevertheless for the short version as well. 😉 For jewelry I decided again – for sure 😉 – on Finesmith Designs. yula Finesmith lately created a wonderful set named “Giz” that comes with a necklace and a wonderful pair of earrings.

The incredible face mask that I liked so much for this styling as it matches the edgy prim parts comes from DE Designs and is called “Maiden Face Mask” and the hairstylist for this styling was Bliss Couture 🙂 For skin and make up I stuck to my long time favourite Glam Affair 🙂

New skin label on the grid – Dessee’s Skins!

by

Lately I had the honor to model for some of the vendor pics of a new skin designer – natalie wells, designer and creator of Dessee’s Skins.

All the skins mostly are made in different tones so you can choose the teint that matches you best 🙂

Beside the ‘normal’ skins you can find as well amazing limited skins at Dessee’s Skins.

What caught my eyes was the fact that some skins have masks or jewelry that is already on the skins itself. I guess Dessee’s Skins is a brand to watch out for and with what natalie wells comes up in the future 🙂
