Les Petits Details for the Ashraya Project

Today I have the great pleasure to show one of the first designs for the Ashraya Project (http://wiccamerlin.wordpress.com/2012/04/17/the-ashraya-project/)

The beautiful “Summer Breeze” dress with the matching hat… both made of wonderful shaped and textured sculpties .

The “Summer Breeze” ensamble will be available in 3 differnt colors. For my post today I picked the blue version. The dress is made in a wonderful aerial way so that you nearly can fell the light summer breeze that waves trhough the skirt. The huge ribbon is a wonderful detail, that adds a lightly playfully girl touch.

The “Summer Breeze” ensable will be the charity item from Les Petits Details for the Ashraya Project and such a sweet dress that matches the actual season in such an awesome way AND helps a good cause should not be missed in every fashionistas wardrobe πŸ™‚

The LM for this fabulous charity event will be given out soon and be added as soon as I got it πŸ™‚

For the jewelry of the look I chose one of the latest releases from Finesmith – the “Folieole” set in mapel. The wnderful colors and the unusual shape made the perfect finsh for my today’s look πŸ™‚

Bring me back to life

TUNES

Today I was again in a strange mood. As I yesterday started to style the new “Aphrodisia” dress from Fellini Couture, I had something romantic lightly vintage with a huge hat in mind. I have no clue why, but while I was entering SL and staring at the login screen, that always shows you your last picture I came across a totally different vision.

Maybe it had to do as well that I listened to one of my favourite bands the whole day. One song of Evanescence was very close to me for a long time. That’s why I linked “Bring me back to life” in the beginning as it kinda was a huge part of my inspiration for the pictures and look.

But now lets take a look on the wonderful “Aphrodisia” dress from Fellini Couture and the whole look around it. The “Aphrodisia” dress is a white and very romantic dress with lots of amazing and different textures. The mixture of filigree lace, the opaque ornamented parts and the flowers makes this dress to a little piece of art. Joy Fellini again shows why she is on top of the SL fashion scene for such a long time with her genius ideas and incredible skills.

Right beside on top of the fashion heaven, we have yula Finesmith, owner and designer of Finesmith. She released not too long ago a wonderful male collection and the parts I am wearing today I took out of this one. I did not see any reason, if males can wear female jewelry, why the girls cannot wear the male jewelry :p. I just had to resize the “Heartology” necklace for sure as it was way bigger for a males neck :). The “Heartology” wings I took like they are without any changes.

The awesome hat is part of the “Halloween Horror Collection” if hats from Bliss Couture. Amutey DeCuir made a super cool hat collection for Halloween 2011 and I see no reason why we cannot use them during the year if it matches :p.

Maybe if you look at the pics while you hear the song you can get a part of my mood that I had, while I was doing this pictures. The first time I dared to make my own fog and parts of the hair and I am amazed what came out after all this hours between looking at tutorials, reading advises and try & error πŸ™‚ For sure it is not the end of the scale, but a wonderful new start for me to work on even more pictures πŸ™‚

Black, White & Red – Square Fantasys with SoliDea FoliEs!

Part of the Spring Collection 2012 of SoliDea FoliEs are the “Optical Dresses & Hats”. There are 3 different versions in color and texture for this amazing new dress. For today I chose the ‘Square’ version of the amazing outfit.

The hat looks like one of the asian ‘Koi’ fishes and it is a very extravagant hat. I always loved how Mila Tatham, owner and genius designer of SoliDea FoliEs took unusual ideas and made them fashionable πŸ™‚ The short dress is perfect for the upcoming spring season and I really like how carefully the red color is brought in with just the few little red balls and at the hat. I have an addiction for black and white and for squares for a long time – yes I am a child of the 80’s :p. So this dress really got my attention even if the 2 other colors are amazing as well.

To catch the red color again I took the new “Play Cubes” earrings from Finesmith. The square shape totally made it to the dress for me πŸ™‚

Too keep the look in a modern way I added one of the latest releases from Urban Lutz for the hair.

To see all of the amazing colors of the “Optical Dress & Hat” and the “Play Cubes” you better take a look by yourself at the SoliDea Folies and Finesmith Mainstores πŸ™‚

A secret walk with a not yet released dress…

A few days ago I was visiting Herradura Baar, dear and long time friend of mine. We had a nice talk with coffee and cake. After spending some hours ranting and gossiping I needed to find the bathroom. She told me to leave the room and the 2 times right and I will find it.

I passed her sleeping room as suddenly something jumped into my eyes… there was a box on the bed… it looked as it was opened short before, kinda like I disturbed Herra as I arrived. I opened the door a bit more and peeked closer… the box had Journey McLaglen as sender on it. Now my explorer spirit took over. It looked like a new idea of Journey for Prism, that she sent to Herra like always to ask for her opinion… my brain was working hard… what could I do to try it. I left the box and went to the bathroom still thinking…

As I came back, I had an idea…

I passed Herra’s sleeping room again and quietly I snatched the new dress and pushed it into my bag… thank got I had chosen one of the bigger ones of PurpleMoon that I found in the ‘Dress Me Purple Hunt’ (yes I will post that soon as well :p). I went back to the living room and told a weird story about a text message on my phone about my dog and told her I will be back in a bit. I left her house and nearly ran to my car.

After I drove a few minutes I reached a small wood and it looked lonely and quiet. I stopped the car and pulled the dress out of my bag. There was a little label on it at the bottom that said “Prism – Yoko”. I tried it on and it really looks amazing. Parts are made with the new mesh technique and the textures are incredible great and detailed like always for Prism. It really was hard to get this amazing dress off again, but I had to bring it back. After another 15 minutes I was back in the car and on the way back to Herra’s house. For thank god I was able to put the dress back where I found it, Herra did not yet notice something, as she was cleaning the cups we used for the coffee before. So better keep an eye on the upcoming Prism releases… I am sure “Yoko” will be out soon!
