MVW 2012: National Gown for Miss Monaco 2012 by Tres Beau

by

The wonderful and cute national costume for Miss Monaco 2012, Miss Vivienne Darcy, was made by Kimmera Madison, owner and designer of Tres Beau. Again Kimmera did a great research, to create this beautiful national costume for Miss Monaco 2012. Many traditional parts you can find on the “Miss Monaco” dress if you compare the outfit to google search results of traditional clothing of Monaco. I admire Kimmera for her careful research, when she starts designing national costumes for Miss Virtual World. All of her creations have really a real based theme and you can discover the country from seeing the costume. The awesome love for the detail Kimmera puts in her creations you can see again at the “Miss Monaco” dress. The ruffles, the delicate corset, the hat, the cute little black ribbons that are used for the blouse and the hat and all those amazing and perfect placed textures… that’s really high-class designing. The skirt carries a very filigree lace texture over the opaque basic and adds a touch of elegance as well. “Miss Monaco” now is available at the Tres Beau Mainstore.

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Having fun with my Inventory and sneak in Lovely’s^^

by

My inventory is a mess most of the times with all the blogging items, new releases and the stuff I buy, cause I think I have tome to blog it still *lol*.  But I have to admit I love my mess *giggles* Sometimes it gives me christmas more than once during the year if I discover something I never thought of :). Lately I found a super cute outfit from Inga Wind, designer and owner of Inga Wind Clothing sitting in my inventory. I put it on and really liked it.

The “Codie Jumpsuit” really is a cool outfit for the everyday wardrobe and with the cuteness it has by itself I could combine it wonderful with some accessories, without pushing it in the back of the view. “Codie” is made of lots of different shades of blue and as well many different fabrics. The chest part is kinda ruffles while the rest of the body is more straight. The sweet lines that hold the top in place are made with prims and the exact same look you will find for the belt. The neat cap completes the cool casual blue look 😉

The jewelry for this amazing blue look comes from Mandala as I thought the textures and the style would go amazing with each other and for me it did :p

The shoes are a combination of the new “Oxa” mesh ankle boots by Baiastice and the “Legwarmer for heels” from G Field. Sissy Pessoa, owner and designer of Baiastice, released wonderful new mesh ankle boots in uni colors and a special edition of mixed colors, I will have them soon here on my blog as well :).

As I was roaming around in my little box in side of Lovely’s Inventory (if you now ask yourself why that, just read here: http://wiccamerlin.wordpress.com/2011/12/30/lovelymi-facetattoos-makeups-more/ 🙂 It was a sweet little fun Lovely did not too long ago 😉 ) I decided to walk out and peek a bit through Lovely’s inventory. I found a lot of cool makeups lying around and some stuff of House of Rage, what she designed and worked on. As well al lot of pictures and other clothing, suddenly I saw a folder called “[MIWA] Poses”… now I became curious… Lovely does poses? I sneaked inside the folder with my mini digi cam and tried the out. The were so cool that I had to snap them… then I heard a rumble going on outside and realized Lovely is back and was working something in her inventory! I grabbed my cam left the poses and sneaked back to my box hiding… but take a look what I got…

Casual Chic – New Collection at Giereh!

by

I am glad that I may show you parts of the newest collection of Giereh. Giereh always stood for casual chic and again Giereh Thorr released an amazing collection of wonderful casual designs.

For today I combined a few part of Giereh to a modern city chic look. The “”Sample” bodysuit in pink made a great basic for my todays look. I combined it with the “Terry” skirt in black. the cool black miniskirt gives a very sexy touch with keeping a casual attire. The layers are made with an awesome shadow and lightning and the folds look very real. The awesome “Rhaysa Woolen” vest gave the perfect twist for me to complete my outfit. The amazing little details like the belt buckle at the bottom or the tiny pockets you can see at the sides… just beautiful 🙂

The boots I am wearing as well are made by Giereh Thorr, owner and designer behind the Giereh brand. The tiny little and wonderful details on the “Anny Fall Boots” really make them to something special. The folds are stunning and the stripes with the little buckles are perfectly made with a lot of love to the detail if you take a closer look. Even the pins are to see that hold the lines to the boots.

For sure the “Anny Fall Boots ” are not only available in black but as well at the white version you can see the work that must be behind that boots.

The cute “Crownly” high heel boots are as well part of the last collection of  and as I could not really decide what I wanna wear I just had to include them into the post :p

If you are as amazed of the new Giereh Collection as I am, make your way to the new Giereh Mainstore.

MVW 2012: National Gown for Miss UK 2012 by Champagne

by

The amazing national costume of Miss UK 2012, Miss Paulinha Lefavere, was made by Enzo Champagne, designer and owner of Champagne! Sparkling Couture. The amazing gown carries the colors of the UK and comes nearly as a full outfit, because the cool shoes are as well part of the outfit. The mixture of all those different fabrics and textures are a wonderful example for the skills of Enzo Champagne. He dares to combine very different textures like the basic one of the gown that looks like satin and the tartan looking one of the stockings. As well the outfit contains a lot of different styles and types of various looks. The combination of an elegant gown, the casual stockings and the sporty looking shoes give the whole look a very unique kick. Another prove for the awesome skills of Enzo are the amazing little details of the costume. The crown, all the ornaments and jewelry parts of the bodice of the gown… just beautiful and perfect created. If you wanna feel like a modern princess in a cool UK looking attire, make your way to the Champagne! Sparkling Couture Mainstore and get you the “Eccentric U.Kingdom”

Wicca’s Wardorbe: Corset Addiction

by

Corsets… nowadays many just see them for fetish fashion, but the history of corset for sure is way older and it was part of fashion way back in the past a lot more. I discovered corsets in my RL as well and I have to admit they change not only your look while wearing them, they as well changes you attitude and behaviour. Because I like corsets in RL, I certainly looked in Sl to find some good ones. The best I found, before I was introduced to NV Corsetry by Lexie Jansma and Lorelei Maggs, were corsets made of jacket layers and some prim corsets that never fit my shape or has strange alpha prims around. NV Corsetry not. The have awesome prim corsets that are made with an awesome script that allows you to fit your corset exactly to your shape in all directions. You can just resize it completely, but as well you have the possibility to change the sides on x, y and z coordinates. That means you are able to only stretch or make it wider only. For me a revolution on SL corsets! Corsets are so versatile and you can create awesome fashion looks with them. You should make your way and try them at the NV Corsetry Mainstore.
