Wicca’s Wardrobe: LOTD 11/16/2013 – A little bit of Steampunk

Silken Moon-Shi 002

Steampunk – One of my favourite styling themes. I love the smooth and brownish colors and the idea of all the technical and mechanical stuff.

For todays look I started with the new “Paradox Pants” from Silken Moon. Malicia Python, wich we all know for her incredible amazing skins, again started to make some clothing. The “Paradox Pants” were released together with a matching jacket, but for this post I wanted to showcase the pants first, as they are really awesome for mix and matching.

Silken Moon-Shi 001

For my today’s styling I chose the ‘Nexus’ version of the “Paradox Pants”. Silken Moon made a lot of other patterns and fabrics for the beautiful mesh pants. The top I picked from Leezu. It is part of one of the Noir outfits called “Efraims Daughter”. I always like the brown fabric of the corset and the ripped part that covers the chest. The huge neck part I found at Shi. Shi is a store where I find myself lately more often. They seem to make some neat accessories and items that you cannot find all over the grid. The “Hesed” neck warmer, is one of those. This huge accessory is a perfect addition for my todays look. The used look and the warm colors of the ‘old book’ version perfectly went with the pants and the top. The shoes are one of my favourites from J’s. The “Studded Long Boots” are cool flat mesh shoes that can be worn in so many different styles and for the steam punk I liked the studds that brought back the metal parts of the neck warmer. Speaking of warmers, the arm warmers are from Shi as well. Shi released amazing armwarmers with mesh hands and fingers right attached to them. With a simple HUD you can choose the ring style and as well you can match the hands to your skin relatively easy. And now i will explore this amazing sim that I found for my pictures 😉

MVW 2012: Evening Gown for Miss Panama 2012 by Tres Beau & Finesmith

Miss Panama 2012Miss Mely Gibbs – made her way to Tres Beau for her evening gown for the Miss Virtual Wold 2012 finale. Kimmera Madison, owner and designer of Tres Beau, again did an incredible job on this wonderful and detailed gown. “Miss Gibbs” is the prove, how exciting and interesting a one color gown can be is the designer has the skills to do so. Kimmera certainly has them with her long past of designing and creating. The different shades of brown and all the little details make this stunning gown to an artistic creation. The bodice is made with sheer parts as well and it adds a very elegant and sexy touch to the same time. The wide skirt catched parts of the texture of the bodice but it is fully opaque. The awesome ruffles and folds on the train in the back again show Kimmera’s incredible designing skills. What caught my eyes were this beautiful roses in the back, that#s why I tried to find a pose to show the as well 🙂 If you love that gown as much as I do you can get yours at the Tres Beau Mainstore.

The jewelry for this amazing “Miss Gibbs” gown was made by yula Finesmith… more and more I discover that she must have been the most busy jewelry designer for this years MVW ;). Yula created the wonderful “Mely” set for the “Miss Gibbs” gown and it really is made perfect for this look. The jewelry underlines the amazing classy and formal style. The set contains the tiara, a pair of earrings, bracelets and the wonderful necklace.The whole set you can recolor and retexture with the great menu yula includes in most of her jewelry. At the Finesmith Mainstore, you can get your very own “Mely” set now 😉

Mesh Mania at Yasum – Part I

Lately I was told to TP to a store named Yasum, cause they had amazing Halloween group gifts. As I am always on the run to find some new or special… I was curious and made my way to the Yasum Mainstore. The group gifts really were awesome and not just one.. you really should take a look. But that shall not be the content of todays post of Yasum. As I was roaming through the store, I more and more was excited about the clothing I saw there. High quality textures and wonderful ideas and designs… as I suddenly discovered who made all this great stuff… Azlyn Vaher!!! I know Azlyn for quite some time, from my older SL days and I remember some of her older designs. They never were bad, but what I saw in that new Mainstore really was making me speechless… especially her mesh division. For today I have 2 wonderful creations and I can say it will not be the last ones 😉

“Catsuit Night” is the first outfit I would like showcase. What really got me was, I never saw a fullbody mesh catsuit before. That’s how I imagined mesh, from the time I heard of it. The whole body covered with mesh and so tight that it totally lies on your body. It is so great to see your avatar moving without any edges and angles… The catsuit carries a wonderful squared texture in brown and black as a basic. Belt and top are as well part of the mesh prim. Only a cap and 2 shoulder decorations are additional prims.

The second outfit is called “Autumn Day” and the name is program… A perfect outfit, as well fully mesh made, for the actual season. The jacket has an amazing hood that hangs down at the back of the neck. What caught me most are the awesome textures that are put on the mesh prims so perfectly.The cute shoes are as well part of the outfit. As I said, there are more wonderful mesh news from Yasum, that I will show here on my blog soon. If you are curious already, make your way to the Yasum Mainstore and take a look by yourself… beside the mesh news you will find many ‘regular’ non mesh outfits as well 😉

Wicca’s Wardrobe – Monday and I again feel the Blues ;)

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 😉

The first 3 pics I did by myself and for my last one I want to say a big thank you to Helenna Baxton. She captured an amazing head shot of me that I do not wanna miss to bring in here 🙂 Thanks a lot Helenna for your time and effort!

I hope you enjoyed my little monday blues post 😉

Stay styled,

Wicca

“Samia” you can purchase with 2 different animal prints – ‘giraffe’ and ‘tiger’. First we take a look at the ‘giraffe’ version. The basic colors are black and white combines to that awesome giraffe print. It is a wonderful lingerie with a bra, pants and nylon stockings decorated with an amazing attached prim belt that goes down in kinda little train on the left side. In every part of that outfit Nando Korbase combined the animal print with a basic black texture with taste and love to every single detail.

Also for this outfit Nando Korbase packed the matching jewelry, the necklace and the bangles!!!

The skirt goes down very tight and before it reaches the ground it ends in an amazing dark brown prim attachment.

Hair-Mania at Baiastice!!!

In one of my last posts I had the great new Baiastice skin “Pulchra” with the red hair attachment and hairbase (->here). But I wanted to give all the new hairstyles an extra place on my blog and also show different colors 😉 For today we have the new releases, or better the whole collection of the new Baiastice hair attachments…

Lets start with the 8 latest releases here shown in blonde. “Giselle” a smart and short ponytail for daily use. The ears are free and let much room for earrings. “Eva” is a very long and sexy ponytail. This extra long hair will turn heads and it is amazing flexible. “Melita” is a sweet girly hairstyle that also goes to nearly every outfit. Sweet wisps cover the sides and peek to the front view. “Ingrid again is more smart and a bit more huge then “Giselle”. Perfect for all the girls that love the wilder look.

And we keep the ‘wild thing’ style with “Spagna” and Spagna 2″ “Spagna decorates your back head as a lion’s mane. Dreamy flexible it follows every movement! “Spagna 2” is close to the “Spagna” hairstyle but it goes more to the side as a non symmetric style. “Vizzy” has wonderful color decorations added to the short knot on the backside of the head and on the fore head as sweet bangs. “Wilma” is one that I like a lot. A non symmetric long ponytail with a wonderful knot in the beginning. It is perfectly flexi and follows every move that you do.

A bit longer available are the following hairstyles that I snapped in black…

“Isis” has 2 different sizes in the pack. The one you can see here and one that s a bit smaller. The cool mane is made flexi and it looks very cool if it moves after you 😉  “Woopi” goes with all kind of outfits, anyways if casual or formal. The ponytail is close to the back of the head and the bottom end in made flexible. “Marie” perfect for every dress or gown, but also for every casual like a cool jeans outfit. “Malvi”  would take you a lot of time if you would have to style it in RL *winks* the amazing arrangement is a little piece of art on the back of your head.

The same counts for “Agnes”… anyways what style this hair style always will fit. With “Xena we again have an awesome non symmetric ponytail in a lightly tube shape. The bottom is flexi made. “Boop” is the perfect hairstyle for an elegant gown. The big ribbon on the top and the wonderful updo in the back make this hairstyle an absolute extravagant and elegant one. “Shepa” is a wonderful straight hairstyle like a knot but  way bigger to the back. It goes lightly up at the end and makes it to something special. I like this one especially for geometric, avant-garde and straight stylings.

“Fiona” again is some for the smart and wild girls who dare to be different. the back-end is flexible and it goes really sweet into the forehead. “Eolion” again is kinda knot on the back of your head but it goes out to the back. the beginning looks wrapped around and the end very complicated twisted… simply great 🙂 “Lucrezia” again is a perfect updo for every elegant dress or gown. “Moira”, the long high ponytail for all who love long hairs. It falls down awesome in the back and starts higher on the back top of the head.

With “Carla” we have the classic knot that we all know from ballet or business outfits. “Donatella” is decorated with an amazing hairband. The hairband is modifiable and you can change the colors if needed. “Magda” looks close to “Lucrezia” but it is not that far in the back and you have sweet wisps that decorate the front of the head. “Arisa” is the classic wild ponytail. Not flexi made you will never loose the style 😉

I am sure, you will find your favourite hairstyle if you make your way to the Baiastice beauty shop. All hair styles are available in black, different blond, red and brown shades.

Today I am very happy to show you 2 newer designs of dojo. Sanders Beaumont, well knows from FDL – Fleur de Lys, created a very young and fresh label for couture designs. Today I have 2 lovely designs that I wanna show you. Lets start with “Vedette” in black and white.

“Vedette” is a very cute short dress with an amazing head-piece. The top is decorated with a beautiful attachment that give it a very realistic look with imagine the “down wrapped” part over the chest. The chest and neckpart are connected as one part. The skirt looks like an open flower with all the petals going around. The shoes are part of the full outfit too. Lovely peep toes sandals with a solid sole in brown and a cute little flower as decoration. This makes this outfit perfect for the actual spring season 😉

The second outfit for today is called “Vanille” and it comes with a sweet surprise 😉

“Vanille” comes with 2 different versions to wear. One closed and one open version, like blossoming flower and also it has 2 different neckparts 🙂

First we have the closed version. A little short balloon skirt shows off your beautiful long legs. The neck part looks like loosing wrapped around and the chest part again is covered by an amazing prim attachment. A totally eye catcher is the little flower head-piece that repeats the flower theme in an amazing way.

Here we see the open version of “Vanilla”. It looks like the spring came and opened the flower 😉 Sweet prim attachments make the sweet imagination of awesome open petals. The neck collar is a bit different too for this version. The great black & white socks are also part of the whole outfit.

Both outfits look very special and spring like, so make your way to the dojo Mainstore and see all the lovely creations – not only in black & white 😉
