Wicca’s Originals @ SATURNALIA: A Winter Solstice & Yule Market // December 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ SATURNALIA: A Winter Solstice & Yule Market // December 17th – January 1st

For some, witchcraft isn’t just for Halloween. And for those individuals, the Sarya necklace by Wicca’s Originals has been carefully crafted. At the center of this piece is a brooch holding a sizable gemstone, held by a set of three chains, to remind the wearer of the rule of three. The gem is held in a fitting framed on either side by the waxing and waning moons, designed in the style of the Triple Goddess. Finally, hanging from this gemstone by a pair of chains is a pentacle, granting the wearer a sense of comfort in the protection it offers in its representation of the five elements. The gem comes in ten variations, as do the metals of the chains. This necklace comes rigged for Maitreya, Legacy, Hourglass, and Freya bodies, as well as an unrigged variation you can modify to fit as needed. Blessed be.

“Christmas time is buzzing in my Skull…”

TUNES

You know, I think this Christmas thing
It’s not as tricky as it seems
And why should they have all the fun?
It should belong to anyone

Not anyone, in fact, but me
Why, I could make a Christmas tree
And there’s no reason I can find
I couldn’t handle Christmas time

I bet I could improve it too
And that’s exactly what I’ll do
Hee,hee,hee
Eureka! I’ve got it!

[- Jack Skellington -]

Who says that freaks do not like Christmas… maybe no the typical, ribbon, red/green/white/gold one with candy sticks all over… but still.. Christmas :p What brought me to that idea for this post was the “Cozy Winter Collection”, which DRD released at FaMESHed and an older group gift – as well made by DRD – the awesome “DIY Christmas Tree” . I found it hilarious, when I saw that blank tree, a huge black sack with all the fir needles in it and three bottles of glue beside it – I simply love Jaimy’s sense of humor. With some parts of the “The Last Christmas Shop” as decoration and some more past group gifts, I tried to decorate my alternative Christmas room 🙂

Certainly I had to have the matching look to my scenery and I could not pass the cool glasses with that scary eyes by Madame Noir… such a cool accessory, that really creates a different vibe *grins* With my love for heavy boots I as well could not leave the “Ravage Boots” on the shelf at L’Emporio&PL. They are so hell detailed! If you take a closer look you can see every stud, every lace, and the cute hole in the sole – made me think of my New Rocks in real love and I love them to death 🙂 What as well caught my eyes were the awesome “Damned Claws” from L’Emporio&PL. They are made for hand and feet, but since the shoes cover my feet this time, I am wearing only the nail set. When I put on the HUD I was really positively surprised… beside different colors you as well can hide every single claw separate.

I have a few more scary Christmas ideas in mind and I am looking forward how they will turn out 😉 For now… Happy Holidays everyone!

Wicca’s Originals @ ACCESS // December 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ ACCESS // Dec 12th – Jan 8th

Whether you’ve been naughty or nice, these Lulu Boots are perfect for the holiday season. Hugging your leg all the way up to mid-thigh, these boots cover your legs and accentuate every curve of them. Your feet will be supported up on tall platforms, and pointed heel spikes. But what really brings the holiday cheer to these boots are the two sets of embellishments. The ‘nice’ set is the traditional style of decorating the platform and the thigh band of the boots with tiny, cute bows. The ‘naughty’ set goes with a wicked twist, instead replacing the bows with a series of metal stud spikes. Comes in 10 different color options, including a few bright holiday ones and a few darks for the more wicked, for Maitreya, Legacy, Hourglass, and Freya bodies. Goes great with the Lulu Outfit!

Wicca’s Originals @ SL Holiday Hop & Shop // December 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ SL Holiday Shop & Hop // Dec 11th – Jan 3rd

Until January 3rd, Wicca’s Originals is taking part of Second Life’s Official Holiday Shop & Hop! An event where everything we’re selling is discounted by 20%, 30% or 50%! If that doesn’t catch your attention, we also have a FREE unisex gift for those that love getting surprises 😉

Just in time for your Holiday revelry, Wicca’s Originals has released the festive Lulu Body. Give the gift of your tempting flesh by wrapping it up in PVC straps and complete with optional bright bows! The location of these bows was artfully selected to draw attention to some of the wearer’s finest curves and assets. With this, you don’t need mistletoe to entice your partner to unwrap you. Who knows where it will lead after that? Comes in 10 different colors, including some vibrant holiday options, but also some rather dark hues for the naughtier soul. The optional ribbons can be hidden. For Maitreya, Legacy, Freya, and Hourglass bodies.

Wicca’s Originals @ Fetish Fair // December 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ Fetish Fair // December 12th – 26

Wicca’s Originals have finished off the Ayda set with the best, the Ayda Boots, which will get their hooks in you. Both disturbing and stylish, these thigh-high boots cover your entire leg, and are decorated with a series of high contrast painted panels up the sides of the leg. However, the more unique embellishments are the downward-curled hooks appearing at random intervals along the leg, and around the platform of the boot. The heel is likewise a backward-curled hook, tricky to get used to balancing in, but promising disturbing things to someone who gets under your foot. As with the rest of the set, a series of extradermal tubes shields wiring, oil, or bodily fluids carried throughout the leg. These come in two variations — clean and dark, with 10 or 20 color palettes, respectively, and can be worn on Maitreya, Freya, Legacy, and Hourglass bodies.

Hide from the World Outside…

As I look out of my bedroom window
I see the chaos that’s calling me
So the wind blows wherever it will go
It’s all too much for me

[- Pretty Reckless -]

Lockdown, lockdown light, back to normal, all open , all closed… This pandemic really becomes a huge mess as no one dares to make decisions anymore. I am not one of those denying that the pandemic exists, I am not one of those who tries to cheat and avoid masks and I see the danger of that virus very clear – I lost people to damn Covid already. What makes me crazy is the way how our government handles certain things. Why conferences, which debate about school rules and changes, have to be on a Sunday (and being alive already on Monday – the next day), when parents need to be informed and need plans to take care of their children on Monday? Why kids may play soccer on the school yard but in the afternoon the clubs for free time activities (as well soccer) are closed? Why kids must sit shoulder on shoulder in school with a mask, while they are not allowed to play with more than one certain friend in the afternoons? More and more doctors speak up saying that it is the kids that transport the virus without having any symptoms and our minister of education still preaches “Kindergartens and schools have to stay open!” I can see that there is a need of having a place where kids can go, if their parents have systemically important jobs or if the only have one parent that takes care of them – but why keeping schools open like mad while it is more and more clear that a huge part of the spreading happens through the classes where 26 and more people share one room the whole morning from 8am to 2 pm? This lockdown “light” crap destroys more than it helps as the number still go up and more and more small stores, theaters, cinemas, bands, musicians and bars/restaurants cannot even plan when it will have an end. A harsh 3 or 4 weeks lockdown might have been better and we know since September (school started over here by then) that we are running into that problem, because number started to go up when school started after summer and autumn came… it just starts feeling idiotic and despotic at the moment. It only feels like reaction to whats happening, but not anymore like intelligent action.

I as well could vomit when I see people going out on the streets wearing no masks and denying the pandemic would exist… did we not have enough death, not enough suffering and loosing people we loved? They claim they go out on the street for their rights – what about the right of  those who want to be protected, those who wear masks and follow given rules to get this pandemic stemmed? While they shout on the streets, people who care and try to protect themselves as much as they can, are forced to pass that crowd of people without masks. Recently they even started to use kids for their idiotic speeches making them say they would feel like Sophie Scholl or Anne Frank – I was so shocked when I heard that and my first thought was, what people would think who had to go through the cruel time of that times… for me an inexcusable affront to all those people!

All of that went trhough my mind when I was setting up the “Neclected Bedroom” from DRD. The idea of a messy bedroom, which you can hide from the world and read some books that even help with that – dive in a fantasy world and just forget all that madness out there and if you are lucky you have a little company from your kitty or the pet you chose for your life 😉 The kick ass cool boots I recently found at L’Emporio and could not pass them without getting my pair :p .

I hope you are well and afe and I wish you a wonderful pre Christmas time, even if it will be in a smaller circle than usual – it still can be nice and cozy ♥

Virtual Insanity?

“… And now that things are changing for the worse
See, its a crazy world we’re living in
And I just can’t see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these –

Future’s made of virtual insanity now
Always seem to, be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound – for we all live underground

And I’m thinking what a mess we’re in
Hard to know where to begin…”

[- Jamiroquai -]

When you think about your life as a path, it never seems to be a straight and smooth one. You have junctions, where you have to decide which way to go. You will face bumpy and rocky sections. You might even dead-end streets, which first looked completely right and all of a sudden you realize it won’t let you go further than a certain point. You might find ways, that feel as they would go to nowhere – some really do some just take a long walk until you can see where they lead to. Some might request major changes and decisions and some just need next to nothing to decide the change.

I am at one of those junctions, maybe even one of the dead-end ones in RL and SL. While it is a little more complicated in RL, in SL I just need to get my mind straight and think about what I really want for my free time activity called Second Life. I – and I only can talk about myself and my personal feelings – do not need a Second Life that dictates my schedule, gives me pressure time wise, forces me to decide on things I do not feel I want to, or to follow something I am not 100% behind anymore. Certainly I feel responsible about schedules and appointments, I always tried to be accurate, on time and well prepared what ever it was, but sometimes the thought of “Do I really need that?” sneaked into my mind and I was more careful the next time I committed to something. But what about things that you thought they would totally suit you and you would enjoy them – what you maybe even did for a while – and then they change? Maybe the fun fades or they take direction to something completely different than what you expected or pictured? I have a hard time lettings things go I had fun with for along time, especially if friendship is involved. It is always harder – at least for me – to leave something, if you have built a friendship with some of the people. Sometimes friendships break as certain people will take your decisions personally, even if they are not meant to be like that. On the other hand if you go on with it, you might risk the friendship as well as you are constantly unhappy and even if you try to hide it, it most likely will be felt by other people, especially if it is friends. Often it is a tightrope walking and you have to think very carefully how you decide.

That sometimes can lead to a “Virtual Insanity”, which inspired me for todays post and pictures.

The damn cool straight jacket was made by CerberusXing for the Warehouse Sales event. It comes in a clean and bloody version and due the BoM Alpha layer you can wear it with different mesh bodies. The cute, pierced horns as well were made by CerberusXing for the Anthem event. My mega awesome piercing I found at Kinky made my .:E.A.Studio:. It is a huge gacha with many different parts, while the piercing is one of the rares you will find a lot of cool earrings as well. To snap my pictures with that kinda crazy, insane look, what could be better than the Rosewood Hills Asylum made by DRD. It is a huge gacha with 49 collectables items and they make in total over 150 separate decorative items!  The gacha set was parted into 2 machines, one focusing more on the medical interior and the other on the office interior. I just can say both totally worth to collect if you want an overall awesome Asylum! If you want a short and scary tour through the Rosewood Hills Asylum you can as well take a look HERE, where Eowyn and Jaimy made a short video to introduce it – watch at your own risk *grins wickedly* If you are even more brave you can take a taxi to Rosewood Hills (SURL below in credits) and look for yourself if you can survive the virtual insanity *winks*

Wicca’s Originals @ We♥RP // December 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ We♥RP // December 4th – 31st

Wicca’s Originals continued to build on the Ayda set (Outfit and Collar) with the addition of the Ayda Arms. These are a modern take of vambraces, covering from high on the upper arm all the way to the wrist in a synthetic carbon fiber polymer. A series of small metallic plates are built into the material, wrapping all the way around the arm and covering it from end to end, offering substantial protection for the flesh and bone (or augmented substitute) hidden underneath. A few tubes are raised outside of the armoring, providing shielding for fluids like blood and oil, or wires. Scuff marks on the metal show the signs of wear and tear on these arms, evidence that they are not just for show. These come in the same 20 color palettes as the rest of the Ayda set, and can be worn on Maitreya, Legacy, Hourglass and Freya bodies.

As a We♥RP Christmas Special we have made a special red/gold version for our Pathfinder set, which you will only find for the duration of the event for 50L$ only!

Happy Holidays!

Wicca’s Originals @ Kinky // November 28th – December 13rd

The Ayda Collar and Pasties by Wicca’s Originals is a new take on the usual dainty collar, and offers a much more dangerous kind of pasties. Some collars get locked on, this mass of metal gets welded around the neck much more permanently, and even includes optional pipes to connect into the lungs so someone who dares to be your master can literally take your breath away. The pasties redefine the joke of nipples poking one’s eyes out, by including a thin spike curved downward. While most pasties are glued on, we leave it up to the imagination how these heavier masses of metal stay firmly affixed to tender, yielding breast flesh. Not for the faint of heart. This set pairs great with the Ayda Outfit itself, and has a color palette to match, with 20 color options! Fits Maitreya, Legacy, Hourglass, and Freya bodies.

Caroline laughs and it’s raining all day
She loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place in the side of our lives
Where nothing is ever put straight
She turns her self round and she smiles and she says
“This is it that’s the end of the joke”
And loses herself in her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk through in their coaches

Pretty in pink, isn’t she?
