Wicca’s Wardrobe: Shopping Finesmith in E-Clipse

by

After Thetra Blackheart, lovely designer of E – Clipse, gave me some of her newest creations out of her “Noir” series I again went to Finesmith Designs to see whats new after my LOA 🙂

But first lets take a look on the outfit… 🙂

As I was talking to Thetra, the winner of the Claim the Fame contest, she told me that she made a few new designs. As I was so curious I got lucky and she gave me the whole “Noir” outfit. For this look I chose the “Bodice” only. A wonderful waist corset made of leather, zippers and buckles… simply amazing. For the top you can choose, if you wanna have a closed or an open version like you can see on the pic above. The nipple shields and the collar part are as well part of the outfit. For the panties you have a basic clothing layer and a wonderful attachment in the front again with silver zippers on the sides. The sweet face tattoo was made by Xplosion and the shoes come from Lapointe & Beastchild. The hairstylist for this styling was Amutey DeCuir from Bliss Couture.

Now for the jewelry.. 🙂 As I entered the new store on the Blackliquid sim I was blown away… such a great new shop!!! And all the new jewelry. Now the different part came.. what to wear firs,t from all the wonderful new things… really a hard desicion. In the end, the choice fell on the new “Noir” line since I liked the idea to combine the new “Noir” line from Finesmith Designs with the new “Noir” line of E – Clipse 😉 – kinda fate for me on that one *grins*. And it goes so well together with the spiked parts of the jewelry and all the zipper and metal parts of the outfit itself 🙂 Yula Finesmith again brought us a new set with lots of little pieces or art and you can be sure that all of them will get the attention they earn in the coming blog posts 🙂

For now I hope you enjoyed my little LOTD 🙂

Stay styled,

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Daydreams – there are always a few minutes to dream a bit :)

by

A bit ago my sweet sissy Lorelei Maggs gave me one of her newest wings she made.  She made this wonderful wings basically for a hunt but I hope she will sell them in her store as well 🙂 I put them on and watched , myself in the mirror as a special mood was growing…

Her “Titania’s Wings” made me search for an outfit that I had for longer in my inventory and never was able to style it like it felt… but to this wings… damn where is it? Do you know that, if you search something special, do not remember the right name and try to find that in your huge mess of inventory.. ah there we go… “Narke Black” it was called and came from RunoRuno. For the jewelry Lorelei gave me as well something matching to the wings. The label is called MCD and the jewelry set I wear to the wings carries the name “Lattice of Orbs” Wings and Jewelry come with a HUD to change the colors or metals and gems. The hairbase is one of the wonderful creations of White Widow. The hair attachment is one of the latest Xplosion male hairsyles 😉

This whole combination took me out of the reality for a few and dragged me into a fantasy world for a while :). Again it was great fun to mix and match some stuff that collected dust in my inventory for a while 🙂

Fantasy with the “Leah Inspiration Set”

by

Again my heart beats for Finesmith Designs… every time again if I open one of yula Finesmith awesome boxes I am curious and nearly cannot wait what is in there…

I know the “Leah” Inspiration set in black is not one of the newer ones but still it caught my heart and I was playing around with it and came to this sweet fantasy theme… 🙂

The set like it is shown here contains 5 attachments and an underpants layer. The main look is a wonderful arrangement of flowers. The head part for me made it unnecessary to wear any hair and as well the chest part covers all that’s needed. The wonderful corset highlights the waist wonderful and the skirt as well is a piece of art that contains the flower theme as well. I added one of my all time favourites for the collar – the “Ash” collar and nails from Finesmith as well.

For all creations that yula Finesmith gives us you always will find the “special touch that shows off her skills and possibilities to make something different that always inspires me to work on pictures to show her incredible designs 🙂

Nostalgic Romance with LeeZu :)

by

Lately I came across an outfit, that I really forgot about. As I pulled it from the deepest corner of my wardrobe I realized how pretty it is and just got it on again…

I kinda fell in a nostalgic mood as I turned my self in front of the mirror as I was wearing the “Maita” outfit from LeeZu. It was one of my very first outfits from LeeZu and if I remember correctly it is not available anymore. It is out of the “Revolution Series”. To staying my nostalgic mood I pulled out one of the older Miamai hairstyles called “Anna Bun” in red with the black bow and some boots from Hoorenbeek that are kinda all time favourites for me. The “Lucille” boots in dark brown for me made the perfect addition to this outfit.

Sometimes it is really sad, that you forget about those little jewels that you have sitting in your inventory as you always get and buy new stuff…
I guess I will now more often look in the back part of my wardrobe to remind my self what great outfits are there and just collect dust and totally do not deserve that 😉

Shoe Mania at Mea Culpa – Part III

by

A few ago Tatanka Kaligawa again created new objects of desire for us ladies… Shoes!!!

The “Bullet” shoes are the first of 8 new pairs of shoes out of Mea Culpas latest shoe release. The delicate fabric decorated with this amazing rings are perfect to wear for any style you want. The heels are not just simple heels, again we can see the love for details, wich Tatanka always adds on his creations. As always you can change the nail color to every color you can think of with the great HUD that always is included if you buy Mea Culpa shoes.

“Burlesque” is one of the 2 pairs that shoes no toes and is closed in the front. Never the less you have a possibility to use the great HUD to change the color of the little filigree flowers on the outside of the shoes.

The 3rd pair of shoes is called “Diabolo”. ‘The very expensive fabric really caught my eye on that one. Again we have kinda peep toes on this one and the nails color again can be changed with the HUD. The sweet lines with the bow in the front as well make a nice decoration 🙂 and the top part honors the shoes name, looking lightly diabolic 😉

The “Empire” design for me has a very playful touch with the neat ruffles at the top and the bottom part of the shoes. The wooden sole and the metal rings make a great addition and give this pair or shoes a very special touch.

Our next object of desire is called “Poison”. Very special for me on this creation is the light glow that goes over the shoes. You nearly get the imagination of a wonderful crystal decoration. The sole and heel are made of a metallic looking fabric. With all this amazing details and the special fabric, they are a little piece of art.

“Quasar” is one of my personal favourites with the cool fabric that looks kinda vinyl  and the huge spikes. A really cool pair of shoes that really should not miss in a  fashionistas shoe cupboard 😉 it as well comes with the great HUD that Mea Culpa always provides for their shoes.

The “Speed” design all the steel and chains really make this style interesting. A few color parts that you can change in color with the HUD make it possible to match this pair of shoes to every kind of outfit.

Last but not least I have my total personal favourite pair of shoes out of the 3rd Mea Culpa Shoe Mania… “Trex” have a real interesting fabric the reminds me of reptile skin. The ankle parts and the big spike in the back totally catched my eyes and I fell in love with that pair of shoes. Again of you take a closer look at the heals you can see the love for the detail that Mea Culpa shows off in almost all creations. The 3 steel lines make an awesome match to the whole style.

So ladies… grab your purse and make your way to the Mea Culpa Mainstore 😉

GizzA – “Yula Inspiration”

by

After sometime of absence and a few changes in my RL and SL, I would like to show you a wonderful creation of GizzA that I got a while ago. The “Yula Inspiration”  outfit is a wonderful summer outfit that has so many lovely and amazing details. The top part is made very sexy without any shoulder lines and a deep front and back neckline, that shows off a lot of skin in a very sexy way 😉

The lower part on the first view looks like a skirt, if you take a closer look you will see that all the ruffles are making beautiful pants 🙂 What totally caught my eyes are the aerial petals and the butterflies, that are arranged round the left shoulder. The right side of the chest again carries this awesome ruffles the we already saw on the pants as well 🙂 The hat as well is part of the whole outfit and repeats the butterflies again.

Wicca’s Wardrobe: One of my long time favourites by Eshi Otawara

by

(Picture by Barney Roundel)

Longer ago Barney Roundel made this wonderful picture for me and I just found it again and remembered the wonderful “Black Gems are forever” outfit by Eshi Otawara.

The top and the gloves are made with the same wonderful texture as the jewelry parts are. Black gems all over so the name really is program 🙂 The pants are made very simple without any attachments in an awesome grey and black shaded  fabric. For the shows I chose one of my favourites from Stiletto Moody, the “Lucille” boots in black. The bag, headpiece, earrings, ring and collar are part of the outfit itself.

Sometimes you find great stuff that you are nearly not recognize anymore as you did not wear it for a long time. That happened nearly with all parts that I used for this styling and I really had a great time grubbing in my inventory and I found even more parts that will be part of some of my future posts 🙂

Ezura Xue – modern, young and fresh!

by

Lately  Ezura  gave me a wonderful dress named “Twisted Lady Dress”.  For my post I chose the short version but as well the outfit contains a longer version. You can purchase the “Twisted Lady Dress” in 4 different colors – black, blue, red and white. The the opaque latex texture gives a very modern and daring touch to the whole attire and the laced parts add a wonderful sexy note. For the boots I chose the wonderful “Digi Boots Cyber Latex” in black as well made by Ezura Xue. This boots really show a future trend and fashion and for me they perfectly match to the dress with the shine and design 🙂

For the JRF Ezura Xue designed a wonderful special edition of this dress…

There you can see as well the longer train that is included in the regular “Twisted Lady Dress”. For the JRF version you only have the long train available.

Wicca’s Wardobe: Weird moments in black and white – the second ;)

by

Ok I admit I stuck a while with my weird moments about stylings, but I have to admit it feels very nice to be allowed to do what you want 😉 The basic of this styling was one of the last “Claim the Fame” shows. The theme was Fantasy Avantgarde. Mostly I try to match the shows themes with my stylings and so this look came together.

The basic makes one of the Black & White skins, made by Nuuna Nitely, owner and designer of Nuuna’s Skins. The for sure with my addiction to Finesmith Designs, jewelry from yula Finesmith had to be part. The skirt part is from the “Saleena Inspiration” set. To cover up the private parts I chose to wear the “Maya” nipple shields and the “O collection 011” bracelets, as well from Finesmith. If you look closer you can see that I used the “Valeria Inspiration” earrings as well for the ears and I changed them in size and made me great wings out of them as well 🙂 The pants, the forehead pice and the feet parts I took from Eshi Otawara‘s “Flying Home” outfit. For the top I remembered one of my old-time favourites… the “Wilted Wednesday Vest” made by Kyoot. For the hair I chose one of the great hairstyles of 3636 Designs.

And now I will hide in the depth of my inventory again and see what I can come up next with 😉
