Marita Overland:”This outfit ensemble is entitled “Underworld” by Runway Couture. Taking a note from the leading lady from the film,Wicca is wearing the female slayer outfit. She is ready to kick some butt in her leather body suit adorned with gold inlay, rubies and chains. The near knee-length boots are matching this ensembleย  in black leather and gold inlay and rubies. The short mini skirt with gold chevrons, rubies and chains, are sure to catch that beast off his guard as she slays him with her storm of fire balls.

Harsch ย is the target on the slayer’s radar, in his large chest armor and tentacles adorned with gold and leather. His belt sits atop his hybrid bottom half with rubies and gold chain and male silks, matching his arm braces. His claws are long and yellow on both his hands and feet. He wears a face mask. also adorned with matching accents. Even with all his armor he is no match for Wicca Slayer !”

“Look at her…” – News from GizzA!

GizzA yesterday won the BOSL Award for the best new designer and I have to agree with that result ๐Ÿ˜‰ A little while ago I had the pleasure to meet Giz Seorn and had the chance to talk to her a bit. She made me curious and I made my way to the GizzA Mainstore and I have to admit I was hell surprised about what I saw… A huge store with so many wonderful creations… I was really amazed. Today I would like to show you 2 more outfits of hers – one a little older but still sexy and stunning and another, newer one that looks so beautiful and perfect for the todays fashionista.

The “Shady Corset”, here shown in black, was one of the first outfits that catched my attention in the past. A friend of mine was wearing it and I was really curious as the quality of this outfit turned my head. The details of the textures and the fresh design, simply amazing! An awesome corset that shaped the ladies upper body perfect, combined with 2 ruffled wrist attachments and a wonderful color with the same look. The sculpted skirt gives more possibilities to wear the outfit then just in the bedroom ๐Ÿ˜‰ For the stockings with the lovely filigree garters you have a closed and the open version you can see on the pic above. The gorgeous ankle boots are as well part of the outfit what makes a perfect overall look ๐Ÿ™‚

The second outfit for today is named “Princely” This design is definitely the perfect style for the actual spring season. You can show off a lot of sexy skin but still look very elegant and classy. The salmon color has a wonderful shine and nearly looks like a delicate shining satin fabric if you wear it… simply breathtaking. The top layers are made off beautiful lace that is repeated in kinda leggings that show under the wide puffy pants. The pants itself are awesome sculpted prims that are attached to the upper legs. On the sweet ribbons that are decorating the knees you again can see the love for the detail that you will find in each and every creation of GizzA designs.

As a perfect jewelry I had to use the still unreleased “Delicate” set that is part of the soon coming “Demure Collection” that yula Finesmith made inspired by the awesome Rissa Friller. The incredible eye ornament totally amazed me and the perfectly shaped and textured bracelets and earrings are just perfect for the todays fashionista. The nails as well are by Finesmith Designs, the “Finesmith Nails Golden” are the perfect matching ones for the “Delicate” set that is fully color changeable over the known menu that all Finesmith jewelry has ๐Ÿ™‚

Nefertiti Kimagawa made me feel honored and very happy :)

(Vendor Picture: provided by Nefertiti Kimagawa, modeled by me ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

Lately Nefertiti Kimagawa surprised me with a huge honor… she named on e of her latest creations after me:) For sure I am very glad that I may show it to you on my blog now ๐Ÿ™‚

“Wicca” is a lightly futuristic looking dress with a huge skirt, that ends at the waist in a wide belt with sweet little buttons. The top part is kinda longsleeve shirt with a cute ornament on the left chest side that gives a light officer touch as it look like medals or distinction insignia ๐Ÿ˜‰ What totally caught me was the incredible helmet that is made of so many prims that it even needs 2 attachment points ๐Ÿ˜‰

The veil of the helmet seemed to be made of little chains that still allow a little peek out and inside ๐Ÿ™‚ The lovely feathers in the back and the sharp spikes on top make a wonderful contrast for this helmet. For the males Nefer created a matching outfit called “Seth” ๐Ÿ™‚ But “Wicca” & “Seth” are not the only new release at Nefertiti Kimagawa’s Mainstore so better take a look by yourself !

“Street Style” news at *X*plosion!!!

Yesterday I got the amazing new releases of *X*plosion. Kaliha Noel, a very old time friend of mine again showed her skills if it comes to casual urban street wear. I rarely saw such great and detailed complete outfits that are so sexy and amazing. Everything seems to be right from head to toe! The “Street Style” outfit can be purchased in different color combinations and I decided for this post to go with brown and black. The bra comes in black or white with each color combination as far as I saw and you have the possibility to wear it as shirt or under shirt layer. For the shirt itself you have all 3 layers to choose from. The gloves layer is decorated with 2 prims each arm what gives an awesome realistic look for the wool fabric. For the jeans you have 3 versions each pack with different looks as well as the 2 pants sleeve prims.

As I said perfectly styled from head to toe… the “Street Style” shoes are perfectly matching with the whole outfit. for this post I used the brown version but also other colors are available if you take a look at the *X*plosion Mainstore. The shoes pack contains a lot of different options and styles as well… for the brown ones you can decide between brown/black, brown/blue, or brown/brown and as well you can wear it with socks, without and with the option that has the jeans prims added as well! That’s why you will find 4 different alpha layers in the whole package.

For me the “Street Style” outfit with its shoes is a definitely everyday wearable outfit! If you wanna see all the different color versions make your way to the *X*plosion Mainstore and I am sure that you find yours ๐Ÿ˜‰ and if you are already there you can take a look at all the other awesome outfits also… even the males ๐Ÿ˜‰ Because this awesome outfit has, like so many others from *X*plosion, a male version as well ๐Ÿ™‚

Walk like an Egyptian with Finesmith Designs!

One set of Finesmith Designs caught me for longer and I had something in mind about styling that I did not find all the time. I wanted to do something special for the “Egyptian” set and lately I came across something I really liked ๐Ÿ˜‰

The “Egyption” set it self contains The fabulous headpiece, the skirt with the long train, nipple shields, necklace, earrings and the incredible eye ornament. With all this parts the “Egyptians set is not only a jewelry set, it is a full outfit where you just have to add hair and shoes and a skin of your likings, for sure you can wear this with your usual skin as well I just was tempted with this golden one I found in a sale at VUI. The hair comes from Purplemoon including the hair base and it is called “Cat” in golden wheat. I chose some golden boots for it that anyways not show in this pics, so anyways :p. The “Egyptian” for me is the total proove of how creative and genius yula Finesmith is. Her endless heart and soul of creativity never will be empty and I am sure she writes history in the SL fashion world with her amazing creations… I saw my new Inspiration set a week ago even longer, it is just a secret till the official release… but I can tell you I never ever before saw jewelry thats so me! Yula puts in so much time, soul, love and effort in this inspiration sets and the turn out so amazing and unique! You really should try the Finesmith Inspirations Muse castings and if it is only to work close with one of the most amazing people in Second Life – yulaFinesmith ! For the perfect posing of the “Egyptian” set I used poses from Body Talking made by Arisia Ashmoot out of the “Mr Egypt” set that you as well can use for females ๐Ÿ™‚

But now let’s have a closer look on the dress I stole out of his laboratory to give you a sneak preview…

This dress is such a sweet idea to celebrate the first birthday of Mea Culpa. The short dress is a shows off very sexy the long legs and the texture of the clothing layers have an awesome shine. It is like you can feel the sun reflecting on each part of the dress. The shoulder prims add a light playful touch and the ornament on the chest make a lovely highlight. The neck collar as well is made as an attached prim. For me the hat is a total eye catcher. It looks like a neat umbrella that is directly worn on the head and so the name of the dress that I could see on a little piece of paper totally first for this design. “Sugar CandyMeaCulpas first anniversary dress is named and I am sure you will not miss it to get your “Sugar Candy” on Thursday the 21st at the Mea Culpa Mainstore!!!
