PurpleMoon – News and Showreview ;)

by

Today I have a little combination of a new release and some great outfits that I was allowed to showcase for the amazing PurpleMoon/Finesmith fashion show at BLVD. For first lets take a look on the new “Tango” outfit.

This outfit you can wear in 2 different versions. The first possibility is a sweet wide top that has an amazing huge neck collar.

The pants can be worn with or without the leg sleeves. The pants are made of  a dark grey / black texture that let imagine a light rough-looking fabric and the white line adds a wonderful elegant touch. The neat hat also is part of the outfit!

For the second version you can wear we also see that there is nother color available for the “Tango” outfit 😉 Here I just took off the wide top prim and the leg sleeves. The hat I changed to one of the new fantastic hair attachments, named “Era” that come with the perfect matching hairbases! So stay tuned for the new releases that will happen 😉

Last weekend the BLVD Agency had an amazing show showing off amazing creationd from PurpleMoon and Finesmith. It was an awesome combination of dreamy outfits and perfectly matching elegant and stylish looking jewelry.

My first outfit was a stunning dark blue gown named “Sue”. This great evening gown is the perfect outfit for an elegant night out. The amazing skirt falls down to the ground and moves behind you with every step. The aerial ruffles that decorate the chest make beautiful filigree looking touch. The neat little blue flowers are amazingly detailed and light the dark blue perfect. Another great highlight we have with the head part. A huge headpart that repeats the roses of the dress and has a little train in the back. Perfect for every fashionista who likes to turn heads!

As it was made for, the “Tension” set from Finesmith looks as a perfect addition to this stunning gown. The half round earrings that become smaller to the end like a half-moon decorate your ears. The same theme you have for the bracelet where 2 of that ‘half moons’ surround your wrist. FOr the perfect finish I added the “Metallic Silver” nails from PurpleMoon.

Another great outfit I was wearing for the show was the “Zasha” dress in bronze. A very tight dress that accents a well-shaped fashionistas body 😉 The horizontal stripes of the main texture adds a modern look to the whole dress. The top is shoulder free and makes great room for a huge edgy necklace like the “Kitsch Couture” necklace from Finesmith. The black gloves and the mermaid looking skirt prim in black make a nice frame where the texture of the dress is fantastic highlighted.

The incredible “Kitsch Couture” necklace and bracelet, made by Finesmith are the perfect addition if it comes to the jewelry part for this dress. The 3 different gold colors go perfect with the bronze and black texture of the dress that has neat little ornaments if you take a closer look. Together with the “Sun” face tattoo, made by White Widow and the “Invicta” hairstyle from Miamai the whole outfit was perfect for the runway 🙂

But if you make your way to the PurpleMoon Mainstore you can see way more of Poulet Koenkamp’s creation and you will really have a hard time to think wich one you get first :p

Autumn comes… we are prepared ;)

(Outfits: LeeZu – “BonVoyage” male & female version, Models: Wicca Merlin & Harsch Sharktooth, Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The days getting shorter, colder and less colorful. But also darker and fewer colors can be very fashionable 😉 For example the “Bon Voyage”  outfit from LeeZu. Part of the NOIR series this outfit comes in a male and a female version.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” male version, Model & Photographer: Harsch Sharktooth)

For the male version I am happy that Harsch Sharktooth agreed to help me for that part 🙂 Thanks a lot for your pics, time and patience Harsch!

“BonVoyage” for males is a great black opaque body suit. The basic black texture that we can see for the pants also is repeated in the combination of awesome textures.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” male version, Model & Photographer: Harsch Sharktooth)

Basically it looks like a simple bodysuit, but if you take a closer look and look at the prim attachments you will realize the amazing design ideas and skills with wich LeeZu can make every outfit to something special.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” female version, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The big legs sleeves, hand attachments, elbow attachments and the huge shoulder parts. All created with a fantastic eye for details and wonderful skills for creations and design! The female version is not a fully opaque body suit… it has this sexy laced parts at the top. The private parts are perfectly covered and still you can show a lot of stunning lace covered skin what accents your shape even more 😉

Overall a perfect outfit for the actual season anyways if male or female… with the “BonVoyage” you are perfectly dressed if you take care of your style 😉

Dojo – Papercouture… How sexy paper can be ;)

by

(Outfit: dojo – “Primerette”, Model: Wicca Merlin, Photographer: Helenna Baxton)

Again Sanders Beaumont shows how sexy and stylish paper can be.

The outfit is combined of tight pants with the paper optic and a great futuristic looking belly free top. For the top we have a long sleeve layer part and a great prim attachment that carries the huge shoulder parts. If you want you also can wear the chopsticks that are also included as a great hair decoration. Also part of the outfit are the amazing booties that are made in kinda Alexander McQueen style with the big front part that let you walk nearly on the toe tips and the high small heel in the back. Also the shoes are decorated with amazing details and the whole outfit again shows the great skills if it comes to the unique textures.

For the second outfit of this blog post I chose one of the new dresses -“Paulette”

“Paulette”, a short sexy dress all made of paper 😉 The skirt starts very tight and at the bottom it opens like a up-side-down tulip 😉 Matching to the dress Sanders added a huge hat. Hat and dress both are decorated with a filigree black ribbon.

To cover the chest we have a great black prim attachment with an amazing collar at the upper end.

This outfit comes with the same great booties as the “Primerette” I had as my first outfit in this post. This are only 2 of the newer dojo outfit and there is one very special with an amazing effect that I will showcase I my next dojo blog post… so stay tuned 😉

Mea Culpa – Halloween and Dark News ;) Part I

by

Tatanka Kaligawa, owner and genius designer of Mea Culpa again created amazing new outfits and I would like to show you both of them 🙂 for today I will like to start with “Demons Victory”

This gown is really a ‘chameleon’. You can wear it in different combinations. Once you can be the center of a Halloween party or you can wear it as a haute couture outfit. Or you decide just to have a very elegant evening gown with the extraordinary touch. The head part and the bat wings you can add or just wear the “simple version with only the huge neck collar with that amazing long spikes that hang down one on every side. The texture of the basic layers is a mixture of laces and solid textures with amazing ornaments that give the whole gown a very sophisticated touch. The skirt has a fantastic hip part with a neat little piercing ring and the skirt is decorated with a ruffled part on each side.

For the very brave and fierce fashionista there is a skirt version that really will turn heads anyways where you go 😉

I could not resist for this version to add all the great parts. The huge bat wings , the head-piece with the horns and that totally fierce big cage with the flying doves in it! With this gown you have a perfect Halloween outfit but also a wonderful gown to match every event!

So don’t wait too long… Halloween is near… and make your way to the Mea Culpa Mainstore 🙂

Monday and the work is back… sweet memories of the weekend start to fade and the everyday life comes back… So what to wear on a cloudy monday autumn day?  With my LeeZu addiction… yes I know all of you know that already ;)… for sure it was a new mix and match of things I like for longer and the latest releases by LeeZu 😉

So for the top I chose the “Mailiin” blouse in grayolive. A short-armed blouse with awesome ruffles in the front 🙂 The top is hold by 2 thin lined also bound to a ruffle in the neck and a nother sweet line on the back make sure that the top does not give any peeks on parts you do not want 😉 For the pants I took the new “Madison” pants in rust. Perfect match in autumn colors… 😉 For the shoes I took out the great and very comfy “Armada” boots from Kookie. With the warmers on the ankles a perfect match for the season too 🙂

For the accessories and jewelry I put on the “Africa” set in bronze combined with the matching bangles from YS & YS. The hairstyle “Krea Updo”  and the hair base are made by Miamai and the amazing skin comes out of the feather of Emilia Redgrave, owner and designer of Redgrave 😉
