Asian Valentine? A Special Way to Celebrate a Special Day!

February 11, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Valentine is close and we all think about a special way to say thank you to people, who are special to us, people we love. We always think about something very special for our beloved ones to surprise them and show them how much we love them. RFyre comes out with 2 very special outfits for Valentine’s Day.

Why not surprise your boyfriend with a very special look?

The “Psyche Formal” dress with all the amazing asian textures and colors really makes a point in being special I guess 😉 . The body part is mesh made what totally accents the shape and for the leg parts you have a 2 part long, sheer skirt that covers the outside of the legs. The amazing overknee boots in red as well are part of the “Psyche Formal” dress. The huge, flexible back train gives the whole ensemble a very elegant touch. The neck and shoulders are decorated with an amazing high collar and originally you as well get an awesome red/golden collar.

For the jewelry I decided to wear a special set from EMO-tions. Made for the Fantasy Gacha. The “Elbensoul” necklace and earrings in golden/black are one of the rare items of the EMO-tions gacha goodies. The filigree metals paired with the amazing black gemstones are just an amazing accessory for every elegant and special styling.

For a bit later in the evening RFyre had an amazing idea as well in a lightly asian style. The playful looking “Psyche” outfit is the right choice for the time when you are back hom from a romantic dinner or event and just want to spend some private time. The sweet outfit is available in red and noir so whatever color you choose to seduce your boyfriend you will surprise him with a wonderful mesh corset, mesh bra and this awesome, cute panties with the ruffles at the back. The over knee boots and the amazing stockings wich are held by sexy garters as well are part of the outfit. For the bra you have 2 options to choose. Either you wanna go totally black like the corset, or with the sweet ornaments you can see on the pictures of my post.

With those 2 outfits I am ready for Valentine 🙂 Are you too?

Final Fantasies with ~S.E.~ , Yasum & GizzA

February 9, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

The FF7 Livestream RP Community is opening their doors with a bang. They host a 2 week shopping extravaganza from February 7th to February 21st. All items showcased there are some kind of Final Fantasy inspired as well as steampunk, futuristic and cyber punk orientated.

For my today’s look I chose the “Oculus Enhancements” by Souzou Eien . Thos amazing eye decorations really inspired me to do a styling that goes in a futuristic and steampunk direction.

The “Oculus Enhancements” are very versatile and you can customize nearly each part of it with a menu by touch. You can change the color of every part to make sure it will match your extravagant styling.

To underline the attitude of the “Oculus Enhancements”, I chose to wear some hair, I got longer ago from a gacha. The “Codie” hair by Discord Designs just looked amazing with the “Oculus Enhancements”.

For the jacket I took the “Vintage Leather Jacket” from GizzA. With the open front and the used leather look it was the best addition I could think of for this kinda special look.

Since it was open and I did not wanna put a shirt under it, I added some dirt and mud as well as some scratches to get this kinda apocalyptic look and mood, as if I just survived a fight;) .

The cool Steampunk Leggings” are made by Yasum. They originally were made for a steam punk event, but they just were perfect for my look. The come with a huge HUD wich lets you change colors and fabrics of the pants, the heels as well as from the added belt buckle. What really caught my attention was that the shoes are right connected to them and the heel was made with such love to the detail. All those cool little steam punk gears put together really caught my heart 😉 .

To see more of the amazing items made for the FF7 Livestream RP Community you just have to visit their amazing looking sim and look for yourself, if you do not wanna wait on more posts that certainly will come to showcase more of all the amazing items made for the FF7 Livestream RP Community grand opening.

The Style Icon – Legal Insanity

February 7, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Legal Insanity invites you to celebrate legendary style icons from the past to the present by visiting “The Style Icon” Fashion Fair.

So, join us and indulge your own personal style by celebrating the icons that inspire us all!

The first outfit I wanna showcase today comes from Legal Insanity. I thought since Legal Insanity is the one who presents the whole event it would be nice to open my series of posts with them ;).

The “Vivienne Punk Gown”, fully mesh made comes i 3 different versions. All 3 have the amazing fabric that immediately reminds you about the UK and Vivienne Westwood, just in different shades. Since I have a fable for Vivienne Westwood, I did not wanna style up this gown just pretty and nice even if it is a wonderful long and tight gown what adds a very feminine touch to every styling.

The “Polly” hair from EMO-tions, just really caught my attention when I was looking through my hair to find the right one. The Polly hair comes with the cute beanie and the scarf as well. With HUD you can change the hair color and as well there is a HUD for the scarf and the beanie.
To give it a little more punk attitude, I added some arm warmers from BC322. After I added the “Spotty Mix” tattoo from artilleri, I wanted to give it even more Westwood feeling and decided to put the “Red Adore Me!” makeup from LovelyMi and my “Wicca” liner and the amazing “Blue as Steel” lipstick from SIlken Moon.

I remembered the amazing billboards from LeeZu. The were at the Arcade Gachas and the “Dreaming Poster” was just the right addition to my white room 😉

I am the Green Fairy

February 6, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

I am the green fairy

“I am the green Fairy
My robe is the color of despair
I have nothing in common with the fairies of the past
What I need is blood, red and hot,
The palpitating flesh of my victims
Alone, I will kill France, the present is dead,
Vive the future…
But me, I kill the future and in family I destroy
The love of country, courage, honor,
I am the purveyor of hell, penitentiaries, hospitals.
Who am I finally?
I am the instigator of crime
I am ruin and sorrow
I am shame
I am dishonor
I am death
I am Absinthe”

(Excerpt from the book “Wormwood; A Drama of Paris” (1890)

Gown: Lybra – “Patricia” (mesh)

Jewelry: Finesmith – “Ice Angel”

Wicca’s Wardrobe: New Age – My Debut

January 28, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Today I am very excited and nervous because this will be my first pose about some clothing I made myself.

At the end of January I will turn 7 years old in SL. 7 years are a lot of time and if I look back most of the time I really had fun 😉 .

I explored a lot, tried to RP and dancing in clubs and after sometime I found my way into modeling in the end of 2008 by taking my first modeling classes at schools and academies. Since then I was doing a lot of runway shows, various video productions, managing different stores, having my own agencies and magazine with SL Art Couture and discovered blogging as one of my addictions besides teaching.

Early 2013 I realized my self being kinda restless as I wanted to do something new. First I was not really sure what it should be. More and more the dream was growing inside of me t make something, something that i can hold in my hands saying it is made by me 😉

First I tried it with poses. I was making poses anyways for my blog sometimes and after I was asked why I do not sell them, the idea of Wicca’s Wardrobe was born. For quite some time I just made poses and I still have fun doing that. But more and more a nother desire was growing inside myself… I wanted to create more than poses. After looking a bit on marketplace I found the wonderful world of mesh, sculpties and prims. Together with my Photoshop addiction the plan to make shoes or clothing for myself came more and more real.

I started with some accessories like head pieces or hats and some bracers until I found some awesome pants on Marketplace I wanted to try for myself first. It worked out quite nice and so I decided I can put it to Wicca’s Wardrobe. One by one all the pieces of the “New Age” outfit found their way into my inventory and I had a lot of fun by trying different textures and combinations. The result was the “New Age” outfit in 3 lightly different versions.

The outfit can be purchased as a total for each version or you can mix and match together your version if you just pick the single at my Mainstore. The whole “New Age” outfit contains awesome mesh pants with those fancy leg shape, the mesh top that can be worn with or without the shoulder attachment and you can choose between 3 types of bracers. The shoulder parts and bracers are able to be fitted with a resizer and for the mesh parts you always have the 5 standard sizes.

If you wanna try if the “New Age” outfit is something for you or if it fits you just take a look at Wicca’s Wardrobe, you will find demos to try there.

Fantasy Gacha Carnival Dreams

January 27, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Dreams

Beyond, beyond the mountain line,
The grey-stone and the boulder,
Beyond the growth of dark green pine,
That crowns its western shoulder,
There lies that fairy-land of mine,
Unseen of a beholder.

Its fruits are all like rubies rare;
Its streams are clear as glasses;
There golden castles hang in air,
And purple grapes in masses,
And noble knights and ladies fair
Come riding down the passes.

Ah me! they say if I could stand
Upon those mountain ledges,
I should see on either hand
Plain fields and dusty hedges;
And yet I know my fairy-land
Lies somewhere o’er their edges.

– Cecil Frances Alexander –

I am very happy to do a post again with the sweet and cute Sazzy Nirpaw. She was always someone special to me since we met and your ways never parted even of we did not talk every day. Lately we came more and more close and were talking a lot and since I started creating stuff and anyways have a brain like swiss cheese she had pity with me and offered to be my personal assistant. First I was hesitating, as I never has something like that before and the thought of someone working for me, a confused and crazy-weird person that mostly cannot even work with herself, kinda scared me and I had the feeling, that should not bother another person with my ADHD character.

But she did not give up being here and helping me. After some time I could not even think what to do without her and I finally agreed, that she now official is my PA and I do not regret it – I could not have chosen a better one 😉 . Thank you Sazzy for being here for me and sorting my chaos.

The majority of the showcased items are coming from Enfant Terrible. One new upcoming brand that has all those extravagant goodies I love so much. For the Fantasy Gacha Carnival she did amazing accessories. So mark your calendars some when between the 1st and 28th of February to stop by and visit the Fantasy Gacha Carnival. The ballerina shoes are available in February only at Enchantment and they will not be sold after.

Sub Urbian Angel

January 15, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

she fell from the sky like a 747

she’s a bad girl baby, she fell out of heaven

now she is stranded in suburbia

trying to show them her utopia

the homeless don’t care

the rich don’t see

most would not dare

but she is free

[Poem by Malicia Python]

Shadows Gathering Around

January 14, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Why was I one of the chosen ones?
Until the fight I could not see
The magic and the strength of my power
It was beyond my wildest dreams

Dark wings they are descending
See shadows gathering around
One by one they are falling
Every time they try to strike us down.

Don’t you die on me
You haven’t made your peace
Live life, breathe, breathe
Don’t you die on me
You haven’t made your peace
Live life, breathe, breathe

[Lyrics by Within Temptation]

Today I was in a weird mood and because of that, i cannot really say something about my styling. It is these days, when you do not feel like you wanna do anything because of various reasons and so you just put on some stuff out of your inventory and experiment around, never being satisfied with something.

Time is your biggest friend if you do that usually… because after some time of fooling around with a lot of items and clothes you might get lucky and get something that just pulls you out of your mood and all of a sudden you like what you see. This is exactly what happened today 😉

I started with a necklace and a head-piece from Enfant Terrible. The “Lotties Darling Necklace” and the “Lotties Eyecatcher” in grey. This two pieces really look very playful and soft with the pearls, gems and ribbons, so I wanted to give it a little bit of contrast with something more harsh and simple. I found a “Harness” as well made by Enfant Terrible. It looked very weird and not really matching and I just kept on searching, but I did not take off the “Harness” again when I tried various clothing layers… I have no clue why I left it on, but when I saw the word catsuit pop up in my inventory it was kinda like a flash light in my head.

The “Shimmer” catsuit from VUI just made shining base for the “Harness”. Now the fantasy went off on me and I added the “Frozen Heart Wings”, wich were a rare gacha item as well made by Enfant Terrible.

The catsuit was lightly broken at the lower arms, cause I still had my Slink mesh hands on so I had to cover it up and went with the “Chloes” bracelets.

Since I anyways now had my hands deep down in my Enfant Terrible folder I just colored my Slink mesh feet black to match the catsuit and put on the “Wrapped Heels”.

You all know how bad layer catsuits look at the neck where they end so I wanted something to smoothen that break from the catsuit to the skin and just put my “Ninja” makup from Nuuna’s on.

I looked at myself and all of a sudden I remembered those awesome scary spiders from GSpot, that they had as gacha items at the Horrorfest 2013.

To bring the red of the spider back I decided to go with the red version of the “Fiamma” hair from Baiastice… one of my long time favourites when I wanna have some wild hair.

So sometimes even a weird mood can be good for something 😉
