Gabriel @ Shiny Shabby

June 8, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

Today I am very happy to showcase one of the latest releases fo Gabriel for the Shiny Shabby event.

The sweet “Maria Denim Dress” made by Sora Tatham for Gabriel. The dress is a beautiful and casual looking dress with a lot of details. It kinda look like the dress would be two layers. The denim top layer with the open button at the top and two open buttons at the bottom, wich add a light sexy touch to the amazing dress. The white layer underneath has an awesome padded fabric and makes this dress to something very trendy and certainly an eye catcher. For the Shiny Shabby event the denim top layer has some sweet flower printed on it, while you can find a star print version at the Gabriel main store as well.

As well part of the dress is the awesome “Maria Necklace” wich matches the dress perfectly to a casual and leger look. To complete the look, I added the “Cassidy Heels” from Cashmere, wich sadly is not longer around. The amazing hand bag comes from 22769 and was one of their past gachas.

The super cool “Lou Glam Glasses” are made by Miamai and add the perfect coolness factor to the whole look. The perfect hair for today’s style I found at EMO-tions. The “Carrie” hair style. This hair has a wonderful back as well. A loosely updo with some nice chop sticks as accessories.

GizzA goes Vintage

May 31, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

I love vintage looks! I always did though and so the “Absinthe” dress in vintage green totally caught my heart 😉

The dress comes with the matching necklace and is available in other wonderful vintage and non vintage patterns.

The wonderful floral print adds a lot of sweetness and beauty to the whole look.

To match the dress I certainly wanted a good girl hair and I remembered one of the braided hair styles from EMO-tions, the “Mela” hair.

The shoes, which came in the perfect shade are from Eudora.

Now I needed a place to snap this cute look. Lately Saz did renew the little parcel behind our store to a wonderful summery looking scene. I tried several places and it was really a hard desicion since there are so many nice spots 😉

Tadaaaa, that’s my GizzA vintage look for today 😉

Put a look together… sometimes it is like doing a jigsaw puzzle :)

May 18, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

I do not know why that is, but lately I am often in a fantasy mood…

Sometimes you see items and you like them and still they do not wanna talk to you. I mean you see a part you like and you cannot figure out what you wanna do with it. Then you put it aside and all of a sudden you see another item and a certain idea grows in your mind and all of a sudden all those “puzzle pieces” fit together 🙂

It kinda was like this with the look for today. My 3 major parts for the look come from EMO-tions, GizzA and Machoire.

Lets start with the base of the look. The new “Belen Skin” from Machoire. This is not a usual skin, more a painting or an art piece. I was thinking a long time what I could do with it without just snapping it with clothes that might not underline the art and fantasy character of the skin. But then I remembered one of the latest releases of GizzA, the “Lysistrata” fantasy costume. With the golden and white parts it added a more warrior type look but still did not overwrite the skin too much. The skirt, a combination of delicate white satin with the golden armor parts and the metal bra just looked awesome and still let enough room for the skin to shine through. The ear parts and the metal arm parts are as well part of the costume.

And what could match better to my fantasy warrior than the “Akora” hair from EMO-tions. You can wear the hairstyle single with a long tail down your back or you can add the crown and the face chain, what I did for this post.

I totally fell in love with my little fantasy warrior look and it again was hard to decide from all the pics I did, but i did not wanna bombard you again with too many pics so I chose my 4 favourite ones 😉

White Widow meets EMO-tions

May 7, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

Hair: EMO-tions – “Peggy” Earrings: EMO-tions – “Cherry” Eye Makeup: White Widow – “Lost River” Tattoo: White Widow – “Narcisse”

I would like to start my “catching up with the missing 2 weeks of my life” with 2 of my favourite designers and as well 2 very long time friends. Mirja Mills from EMO-tions and Julie Hastings from White Widow. Both are amazing designers, who look back on a long past of creating to make our SL more and more nice 😉

For this post I made 3 stylings always paired with hair & jewelry from EMO-tions and makeup & tattoos made by White Widow.

Hair: EMO-tions – “Peggy” Earrings: EMO-tions – “Cherry” Eye Makeup: White Widow – “Lost River” Tattoo: White Widow – “Narcisse”

When I tried on the “Peggy” hair style, I immediately got the impression of a Rockabilly Pin Up look. I added the “Cherry” earrings to even more go towards the look I had in my mind. Certainly a Rockabilly girl needs a super cool tattoo and where else than at White Widow you can find those? When I opened the “Lost River” pack, I was very surprised to see all of the most popular mesh body applier in there and so I did throw on my Slink Physique to try the tattoos on a mesh body. The lingerie I am wearing is the default one that comes with the slink Physique as it really looked nice with the whole styling 😉 The “Lost River” tattoo can be word with the normal avatar as a tattoo layer and as not only the Slink appliers, you as well can wear it for the Belleza, Maitreya, Sking Brazilia Doll and the TMP mesh body and hands.

For the eye makeup I as well chose one of the latest releases from White Widow, the “Narcisse” design in black, which was made for the Black Fashion Fair.

For my second styling I chose the “Windblown 9 ” hair as well from EMO-tions together with the “Florielle” necklace out of the full set that comes with earrings, necklace and a wonderful forearm/hand piece ( I have to make sure to show that in a nother post soon!) This hair was right down my alley… wild, crazy and perfect for pictures in a windy or stormy environment!

The wonderful and filigree eye art again was made by Julie Hastings, owner and designer of White Widow. The “Arctica” makeup again shows why I am so in love with White Widow…

The filigree art work, those tiny lines placed by hand so straight and clean it amazes me every time again when I wear one of Julie’s new designs… she really is an artist when it comes to those tiny little but incredible drawings! The “Arctica” makeup is available at the New Fashion Store Event.

Hair: EMO-tions – “Windblown 9” Necklace: EMO-tions – “Florielle” Eye Makeup: White Widow – “Arctica”

Last but not least I chose the “Imani” hairstyle from EMO-tions. With that ethnic looking hair style I am wearing the “Aphrodite” set to underline this kind of look. The “Inca” makeup from White Widow was the perfect addition for this look and with the amazing golden color it matched the “Aphrodite” jewelry. The “Inca” makeup you can find at the On9 Event.

New @ Machoire

February 28, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

Today I am very happy, tha I am able to showcase a very new designer on the grid. Machoire, a genius woman, who named her brand after herself or vice versa ;).

She creates original mesh and designs jewelry, hair and accessories in a very artistic way in a new and modern look and style.

Today I would like to showcase one of her great new necklaces called “Livay Nacklace”.

This huge necklace is an art piece and you do not need any busy outfit for it, tha is why I just put on a tight body suit to really let this wonderful design shine and not drag any attention from it.

You have a wonderful front, wich goes deep down to the belly and the back as well is wonderfully handcrafted and artistic shaped. As a little decoration in the front you have some sweet little gems added. The whole piece is texture change able with the huge HUD that comes with the necklace. You have the choice to change the metals and the gems to make sure you can make it match to all of your outfits and stylings.

Machoire… definitely a name to remember or put on your shopping list and I am very curious what she will bring out next!

The Dark Warrior with PurpleMoon & EMO-tions

February 16, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

Dark Illusion Warrior

From nowhere came a warrior
With a mission to complete
He was in possession of extreme power
That he’d use on everyone he’d meet

He came when you least expected him
He brought terror to the world
You could expect no mercy
As he swung his sword

He was cursed by the Gods
He had to fight ’til he died
But finally he beat the odds
And then he was free, free to rise

Nobody knew where he came from
No one knew his destiny
The story was told through the centuries
A piece of tragic history

He came when you least expected him
He brought terror to the world
You could expect no mercy
As he swung his sword

[by Supernatural]

Fashionable Revolution with Faster Pussycat

January 11, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

Today I have again the great pleasure to showcase one of the newest releases of Faster Pussycat. Owner and Designer Honey Bender again outdid herself with a wonderful X-Mas/New Year Mini Collection. The X-Mas Fashio Riot contains 5 different outfits wich you s well can mix and match crossover. I decided to go with the “Le PETIT CADEU” outfit in tartan and added the “Huntress Buckled Gloves” and the “Rebel Antoinette ” shoes.

The “Le PETIT CADEU” outfit comes with a wonderful tight corset, the short skirt ruffles, the neck ribbon, the “Wabbity” mask and the sexy studded panties. As well you will find those amazing nipple shields and the incredible detailed “Anarchy” brooch in you box if you purchased the “Le PETIT CADEU” outfit.

The tartan fabric of the corset and the skirt together with the rebel attitude of the whole outfit and sa well the colors, immediately for me gave a UK punkish feeling.

The “Rebel Antoinette” shoes are made for the slink mid feet and with the brocade golden fabric they are the perfect addition for the outfit.

But like I mentioned before, this is only one outfit off the great Fashion Riot mini collection and to see all the other amazing outfits you can either make up your way to the Faster Pussycat main store to the second floor or wait till I have snapped all the other amazing outfits 😉

Hairmania with EMO-tions

January 7, 2015 by Wicca Merlin

EMO-tions – “Nella”

And finally RL let me free to enjoy SL a bit more again 😉

I would like to start my blogging year 2015 with a “New Hair” post.

Mirja Mills from EMO-tions was such a busy bee even during the christmas and holiday season, that I really thought I owe her a special hair post 🙂

EMO-tions – “Mona”

Recently she made some wonderful mesh hair styles, I really fell in love with. The “Nella ” and the “Mona” style totally captured my attention as this is kinda the way I used to have my hair RL and it reminded me of some cool pictures i got from a gig with my band. Both are kinda windblown and not just al good girl sorted. So the perfect choice for an amazing everyday look.

EMO-tions – “Michaela”

But even the good girls will be satisfied with for example “Michaela”. The amazing long braid, that is coming down over the right shoulder comes in 2 different looks. Once like we see it on the picture with hiding half of the face under a wonderful wisp of hair. The “Michaela 2” as well has some hair needles wich pull exactly that hair to the back.

EMO-tions – “Laleen A”

“Laleen” again is a ‘2 in 1’ hair style with the amazing sweet and cute animation, which the avatar does when you change the hairstyle by touch. The “Laleen” hair can be worn as a long ponytail over the right shoulder or when clicked it becomes a sweet casual up-do 🙂

EMO-tions – “Laleen B”

For both versions the knot at the back of the head stays the same.

EMO-tions – “Jared”

“Jared” originally was made as a male hair style. It as well has an amazing beard in the box but that really looked too awkward for my today’s post ;). But I never saw the reason why certain male hairstyles cannot be worn by females as well 😉

EMO-tions – “Lauren”

With Lauren my little punk heart was beating a tick louder than usual. Those amazing little braids all pulled over to the right side of the head show a wonderful shaved under-cut on the left side of the head.

EMO-tions – “Alicia”

“Alicia” is one of those hair styles I dreamed about in RL ion forever but I never dared to cut my hair again so short, after I had a bad accident with a person that cut my hair while I was a child too short. But “Alicia” totally brings a super modern vibe to me and makes an amazing every day hair style.

EMO-tions – “Eles”

Last but not least for today we have “Eles” a more elegant hair style which as well can be used for casual stylings but gives them a more classy look. The playful wisps tha go down at the sides add a very realistic touch.

Even if I posted all of those amazing hair now in only one color, you certainly have the normal color options we know from EMO-tions 🙂

So do not wait and take the next taxi to the EMO-tions main store!

LOTD 12/12/2014 – Featuring GizzA & EMO-tions

December 13, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Today I had another shift at GizzA and I went through all those fantastic new releases I got lately.

So many new and amazing things and I had a hard time to decide what to wear today 🙂

Finally my decision fell on the “Spiked Bodysuit” in silver from GizzA. The suit comes together with the amazing overknee boots and is as well available in gold and black. Even if I love black most of the time today the silver one kinda talked to me more 😉 So I started with the “Spiked Bodysuit” and it’s awesome high boots. For the jewelry, I as well used something made by GizzA as the colors went so perfect with the suit and underlined the metal character of the whole look.

The “Chained Treasure Set” contains necklace (2 parts) and 2 bracelets. For this post I only used one part of the necklace wich can be used alone perfectly as well.

For the hair I used one of the newer ones frm EMO-tions. The “Brandy” hair might not be the common choice for that kind of look but with the kinda clean look and still the cool braids made the perfect look for my mood today 🙂 What i liked the most is that this special hairstyle has as well a special hairbase to it wich features the braids in a very realistic way.

For the makeup I wanted something simple day style looking so I went with one of my favourite makeup artists, L.Faune. The “Twotone Makeup” in siver-warm-gray and the “Natural 2” lipstick underlined the metal look just perfect 🙂

LOTD 12/02/204 – Escape the first snowflakes!

December 2, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Today we had the first snowflakes falling down in Germany. When I was driving to the school I am teaching music and arts, I had the very first snowflakes kissed the front window of my car. Certainly they immediately melted when the reached the ground but still…SNOW!

When I came home today, I had the very strong feeling to post something AGAINST that snow issue :p

So I wanted to do something with some sunny colors and I remembered one of the creations SoliDea FoliEs for the Ferosh Magazine.

The “Orange Doll” was exactly what my soul desired after the snow shock this morning 😉

The white dress has a wonderful back print wich shows a female face with amazing orange accents.

To kinda bring back that feeling I added the “Elsepet ~ Orange” eyeshadow from Zibska.

For the hair I chose something I got from Miamai, what really caught my attention when I opened it.

The “Beatrice Headwrap” with the orange & black fabric just was the perfect addition to the dress. The modern hairstyle with the great headpiece really gave the whole outfit a sunny touch 😉

The awesome shoulder piece comes from EMO-tions. The “Romina” ensemble contains 2 parts. One necklace and one shoulder piece, which you as well can wear single.

I hope I could bring my sunny feeling over to you and I guess I now better put on my warm winter clothes before my pixels get a cold like I already got RL 😉
