Today, while I was driving home from RL work, they played an older song from P!NK at the radio – “Trouble”. I did not hear that song in ages and as I arrived at home I had to listen a few more times to it. During that I logged into SL and started my SL day as usually with making some styles for the blog, I saw that little note beside my keyboard that reminded me of styling a casual corset outfit, like I promised in my last corset post.
Still the song “Trouble” from P!NK was running on my itunes and I could not resist… so the casual styling still have to be done somewhen, as this one turned out very punky :p
But even that is possible with the corsets of NV Corsetry 😉 Again I am very glad that I can show, that corsets have such a wide style range 🙂 Even the music industry in RL discovered that again and again. Singers like Lady Gaga, Pink, Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation) and many others include corsets in their stage outfits. They simply add a sexy and elegant touch to everything what you wear and do not disturb any styling 🙂
For the shoes the choice fell on one of the newest Redgrave boots called “Bonnie Boots”. This boots really rock. You will get 2 versions in one pack, one with golden and one with solver hardware and sole. The combination of leather and cotton really makes this super-higheeled plateau boots perfect for every occasion.
To make the look perfect I added one of my favourite LeeZu jeans and a casual shirt as well from LeeZu.
But now it is time to switch the music and say bye bye to P!NK for now :p

Again I was in a funny mood and tried to find a way to show case the new Finesmith “Aphrodite” set. In the end, after trying different looks and styles I got stuck on a future fashion vision. The set contains earrings, necklace, bracelet, ring, lip piercing and the fantastic helmet. Again yula Finesmith created something extravagant. I never saw a jewelry related helmet before in that way. She included this helmet in an awesome way to the whole set. The set is sold in separate different colors but as well a huge fatpack , where the jewelry again has yula’s great color change menu. The menu let you change the metal parts in 2 ways. The petals can be retextured for another color and the spiked as well. Also the gems can be changed in color with the menu. “Aphrodite does not only have simple metal textures that you can change in color. Every texture has wonderful ornaments that decorate the basic metal, very filigree and light but they add an extra touch of noblesse. The lip piercing for adds the edgy touch and is a cool accessorie for the whole set. The color driven set and all the single colors you will find at the Finesmith Mainstore 🙂

The “LolliPop” dress of GizzA got an old song stuck in my head like an earworm… (Tunes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rYoRaxgOE0). With hearing that song I started to style the latest release from GizzA. For sure it had to be something cute and kinda vintage. The “LolliPop” dress it self can be styled in many different way as it comes in a wide color range as well 🙂 The typical glasses for the vintage look I found at artilleri and for sure I had to add some super cute booties.The huge skirt part still is very filigree made and the glitter texture gives the whole dress a very special shine. The chest part is decorated with a lovely ruffle that brings back the theme of the wide, short skirt. The sheer gloves make a perfect finish for this dress and are also included in the color you pick. 🙂 “LolliPop” you can now find at the GizzA Mainstore.
The super cute Finesmith booties were released right in time to combine them with the GizzA dress… for my case it was kinda fate :p, as it totally matched my vision of this styling. The “Candybird” booties as well come in a lot of different colors. So you could try to mix and match different colors of “LolliPop” and “Candybird” as well.If you make your way to the Finesmith Mainstore you can find them at the little inside store, the shoe section.
For the hair I again used one of the new styles of Urban Lutz. Urban Lutz is a very new hairstore and it has already it’s trademark and more and more people feel be attracted by this idea. Taylor Wassep only does blond and black hair. The styles are very modern and fresh and mostly it is hair attachments what is a huge favour of mine anyways :). Until now Taylor has no hair bases included but the colors of the blond and black she has, go easily with all the hairbases we anyways have in our inventorys… I tried that 🙂 If you are alway on the run and search new hair like me, you should try Urban Lutz 🙂

Today I have the pleasure, to showcase the latest release of Violator. “Di Vernice”, a wonderful gown with a combination of mesh and prims parts. This elegant gown again shows the awesome skills of soraya Vaher, owner and designer of Violator. She can combine the most different pats and fabrics and she makes it look artistic and very high fashion.
This time she made this awesome sexy and as well very elegant dress of vinyl. A very difficult texture to make and to work with I was told. The lights and shadows are so amazing set that you can see the fabric shine and reflect the light in an awesome way. The bottom part of the dress is opened at the sides and shows the long sexy legs of every fashionista. The skirt is made of wonderful flexible prims and the top part with the short skirt is made with the new mesh technique. Soraya included 5 different sites of the mesh part so that you can find the right one for your shape. If you take a closer look on the jewelry parts that decorate the skirt, they are part of the “Di Vernice” as well. A beautiful platinum rank that goes up till your waist where it is connected to the belt. The incredible “Di Vernice”, here shown in black/platin as well is available in 3 more stunning colors like black/gold, red/gold and purple/gold at the Violator Mainstore.
The wonderful eyepiece as well is part of the outfit and brings back the skirt decoration in a beautiful way around the eyes. The eye decoration really adds some extra elegance again to the wonderful “Di Vernice” dress.
To complete the look I just added earrings from Finesmith and hair from a very new but super cool store… Urban Lutz. The creative head behind Urban Lutz is Taylor Wassep. She only features black and blond hairstyles. “Lotus” is one of her latest releases.

30th of January… 2007 I was born in SL and now we have 2012… 5 years in SL, that’s a long time. I usually tend to forget that date as I did today. I realized it as the clock on my computer turned to 1AM and the date switched*grins*. So, today.. or better yesterday, I spent my SL day with styling and making pictures… like mostly*lol*. I had an argument lately with a few ppl about corsets. Some wanted to tell me corsets are fetish, others told me they are porn and some said corsets are lingerie only. But I disagreed and still do. Corsets came from way in the past before we had all those fancy leather and latex stuff and they were part of awesome medieval gowns for example.
So I took myself to a challenge that I can wear corsets without any touch of all that prejudices and create a modern non avantgarde look. Ok I admit… it turned out in some postapocalyptic again lightly but that might be because of my favour for this kinda pictures *smiles* Maybe if you just put the whole outfit in a different scenery it looks different again, but the big hoodie on the “Anath” jacket of Miamai. The rats that are placed over the shoulder just underlined the feeling of the day after a worldwide catastrophe where you just wake up and try to survive, maybe try to find other people and some food. The white corset comes from NV Corsetry. I discovered this store over 2 of my sissies, Lexie and Lorelei. The introduced me to Khurt Vhargon, owner and designer of NV Corsetry. He makes a very new kind of corsets, fully scripted to resize them in every direction. You can choose if you only wanna make it longer or wider and not just resize the full object… really an innovation for corsets in SL. As well he created so many different styles and different fabrics that you really get in trouble if you visit his store as you have a hard time to choose. The newest addition to that corsets is, that now he can help you fit the corset as well if you cannot do it on your own with a remote control of the script. That means he can operate the script while you are wearing his corsets. I only saw this technique at BAX before for the boots and it will be really helpful, if you are not yet that experienced in SL with fittings and scripts and still wanna wear one of his amazing corsets 🙂
For the pants I chose one of my all time favourites from LeeZu, the “Madison” pants. The earrings and bracelets come from Finesmith and the face tattoo from White Widow, as well favourite stores of mine 🙂 The skin is made by Malicia Python, owner and designer of Silken Moon. She made me this special makeup for the “Rookie” skin, called “Childhater” as I wanted black lips and dark smokey eyes. One example for the great custom makeups you can get from Silken Moon 🙂 As I had to walk through water for that post :p the water swallowed the cool “Pomski” boots from Kookie…
I hope I could prove my opinion, that corsets are not only porn, fetish, lingerie or avantgarde… they can be so much more and as well a part of everyday looks if you combine them with jeans and a casual blouse :). *makes a note to herself for a new look*
And so I will bring the box I found, in the water at the beginning of my post, back home and see what I got…
