Business can be fashion and sexy as well ;)

June 26, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

The new “Nautical Business” outfit from GizzA once again shows that even a business outfit can be fashion and sexy 😉 .

The new Nautical line from GizzA brought us many new and wonderful outfits and the “Nautical Business” outfit is just one of them. I already showed you another one a few weeks ago.

The ensemble contains the amazing blouse and the super sexy non symmetric skirt with the long row of buttons in the front. The ruffles at the bottom of the skirt and the way how the top is designed it has a lightly vintage character especially in the black and white colors.

For the shoes I decided to wear the new “Betty Heels” as well from GizzA, wich are made for the high version of the Slink mesh feet.

To underline that vintage touch I added the “Oversized Sunglasses” from Izzie’s and the super cool “Vintage Romance” hat from LODE. The cute clutch I have from Lybra Rage, but from her old brand called “House of Rage” and I am not sure if it still is for sale.

The amazing and natural looking nails are from Nailed It out of the “French Pastel Set”.

Circus Mystic for Fashion for Life 2014

June 18, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

During the .PENUMBRA. Fashion Week S/S 2014 I met a very creative and wonderful person. Trinity Yazimoto, owner and super creative designer of Petite Chat (*PC*). I already blogged 2 of her creations for the :PENUMBRA: Fashion Week and now she is part of the Fashion for Life (FFL) with new creations. One of those new designs is the “Circus Dress”. Again this dress was made from a wonderful picture of herself. I talked to her for a few times now and I only can imagine how difficult it is to bring those amazing paintings on mesh prims. If you ever tried to texture a mesh item, you know how back it stretches, twists and destroys the actual texture. But if you take a closer look on Trinity’s creations you can see that every little thing is sharp and in line on the clothing as it was in the art work.

The “Circus Dress” inspired me to really go against the circus idea. A longer time ago I got a wonderful gift from Daphne Klossovsky, designer of [HANDwerk]. A super sweet and cute wooden horse that looks like as it was taken out of a carousel. The colors just went perfect with the “Circus Dress” and so I finally found something I can post that amazing carousel horse with 😉 .

The “Circus Dress” is materials enabled and so you can test all those super cool new windlights with that new feature as well and can see the full beauty of that dress and as well it adds a wonderful uniqueness to the dress.

The original artworks are displayed in Trinitys little art gallery called Petite Chat Gallery (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Haddath/26/106/67).

And to keep the eyes on Fashion for Life please as well take a look at the hair. The “Josy” hair style was made by Mirja Mills, owner and creator of EMO-tions.

“Josy” has a wonderful long and flexible high ponytail and in the front some wisps fall into your face. With all those amazing features and the fact that you can have this in all the well-known colors that EMO-tion offers, this hair is the perfect addition for your everyday hairstyles.

Please make your way over to the Fashion for Life sims and help with enlarging your wardrobe, hair and accessories. All those amazing designs were made for an amazing charity that raises money for those who need the help!

Last but not least I would like to share the music, wich underlined my inspiration for the pictures while I was working on them.

Circus

There’s only two types of people in the world
The ones that entertain and the ones that observe
Well baby, I’m a put-on-a-show kind of girl
Don’t like the backseat, gotta be first

I’m a like the ringleader, I call the shots
(Call the shots)
I’m like a firecracker I make it hot
When I put on a show

I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I’m ready to break
I’m like a performer, the dancefloor is my stage
Better be ready, hope that you feel the same

All eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus
When I crack that whip, everybody gon’ trip just like a circus
Don’t stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go, we can make a dancefloor just like a circus ahhhhha

There’s only two types of guys out there
Ones that can hang with me and ones that are scared
So baby, I hope that you came prepared
I run a tight shift so beware

I’m a like the ringleader, I call the shots
(Call the shots)
I’m like a firecracker, I make it hot
When I put on a show

I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I’m ready to break
I’m like a performer, the dancefloor is my stage
Better be ready, hope that you feel the same

Let’s go

Let me see what you can do
I’m runnin’ this like-like-like a circus
Yeah, like a what? Like-like-like a circus

Soccer World Cup Mania with Edelfabrik & EMO-tions

June 18, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

At the moment most of the people I know, are totally crazy about soccer and the ongoing world cup. I am a totally non soccer person I have to admit, but when I lately met Sarah Tremor and she gave me that wonderful outfit … I forgot my opinion about siccer for moment, as this amazing design really caught my attention. The “World Cup Bella” outfit comes with this super sexy dress, wich is only hold together by laces. Two in the front and two in the back.

Between the laces you can peek through on the skin, what gives the whole outfit a very sexy look. What I like is, that Sarah added underwear to it, so you are safe anyways where you wanna go, plus if it is really hot you even can pull off the dress and use the underwear as a sexy bikini 😉

The dress is made of a knitted fabric with the flag of england on it. In the back you even can see the coutry printed on the dress and like real soccer shorts you have that number in the middle of your back. This amazing dress is available in 12 different country flags! I just chose England as I love the combination of red and white *snickers* and I love England.

Last but not least I would like to drag your attention on the shoes, as they come as part of the outfit as well!

For the hair I used one of the FFL contributions of EMO-tions. The “Renee” hairstyle was perfect for this kinda sporty but sexy look. The hair is mesh made so the braid moves awesome with every movement.

The little straps that hold the braid together, you can texture differetly by the HUD in a few ready made colors to match your look.

With the “World Cup Bella” dress you are definatly ready to go for a cool soccer party while you watch one of those exciting games 😉

In a Tim Burton Mood with FrEgo & [AD] Creations

June 10, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

A few days ago I got a call from 2 dear old friends if I would have time to pose for his new top… what a question! Certainly I have time for those I call friends no matter what.

Plus… I know what amazing things they can do and so I was really excited and curious 😉 .

FrEgo has no inworld store and you only can find it on Marketplace (https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/117990)

Since yesterday you can find the amazing “Sleeveless Summer Wrap” top there as well in 4 awesome summer colors.

But not only the top comes from FrEgo… The cool “Cutoff Jeans” and the kick ass “Combat Boots” with all those sweet little details and in different colors, you will find as well at the FrEgo Marketplace store together with some more super awesome designs.

The huge and stunning hat was made by Aliza Karu, owner and designer of [AD] Creations. The “My head mesh hat” comes with a HUD, wich lets you change the headband, the upper, lower and inner hat texture.

Together with the arm warmers from .shi I felt dressed right and had this Tim Burton mood already because of the colors and the huge hat. So I added some ripped socks and a small necklace to not drag the attention to far away from the clothing and the hat.

For the scenery I wanted to use something Tim Burton like and I remembered a skybox I got longer time ago from DRD and together with the poses from Del May I had a lot of fun going against the casual idea I had in the beginning for that look*snickers*. Sometimes the first idea of a look changes with every detail you add to it or even with everything you remove 😉

Girl Power

June 8, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

A few days ago, as I was working my shift, a sweet girl landed. She IMed me and before she could say anything I remembered, that I know that I know her from a blog I found recently. Cierra Emor – cute sweet and a little rebel like me 😉

After we talked a little bit I had the feeling we should do a post together and I asked Cierra about it. First she said she would be too busy at the moment with her blogging for the FFL and I told her we do not have to do it right away, just when we both are free and wanna have some fun.

The more we talked, the more I found out what a sweet heart she is and when she finally offered me the friendship, I felt very honored 🙂 .

So I finished my shift and went back to my work, when all of a sudden my IM box rang and Cierra was in telling me she just put together a look she would like to blog with me. So quick it can come… *snickers*… and I asked her if she could send me a quick snap, so I could style something according to her look.

She came up with a bad girl look in a short dress and when I saw this, I remembered the “Uruwa” dress I found at Collabor 88. I never found an occasion to blog it but with Cierra’s look it was totally perfect. What caught my attention for the “Uruwa” dress was the amazing texture and the open back of that sweet and short mesh dress.

To complete the look, I added the “Cat Tights” and the “Piccadilly Overknee Boots” from LeeZu.

The wonderful “Birdy” tattoo comes from White Widow, made by the super talented Julie Hastings and the hair with the light windblown look I got at LeLutka.

Cierra found a wonderful place to mak the pics and we just tried several poses until we found a few matching ones.

The whole time we had great fun. Thank you so much Cierra for your patience with me and that wonderful time we spent together – I hope it was not the last time 😉 .

Today is Tomorrow’s Yesterday…

May 27, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

And again I find myself in a dark and fantasy mood and with he Fantasy Gacha items from EMO-tions and the amazing outfit from Lybra it kinda put itself together one by one 😉

In my case dark mood does not mean automatically bad mood ;). I just enjoy dark stylings a lot and sometimes they might look bit depressive but in general I just love that mood and look.

I started with the amazing “Mantus” hair from EMO-tions. It is a hairstyle that comes with so many different options that you have so much more than just one hairstyle if you purchase the “Mantus” hair style.

You can choose between hairbase with a bun or bangs only. Furthermore you can use the flexi pony tail or the rigged mesh one and add some upper hair on top of the hair base as well like I did for the rigged pony tail in my today’s styling. As well I used the face chains and horns, wich as well are in the whole package!

Now for this amazing fantasy hair I wanted to make something special and the “Captive Heart” outfit from Lybra came to my mind. A super sexy but as well very strong-looking ensemble.

The long sleeved top has an amazing front wich parts below the chest and gives a sexy peek on your belly. The bra part itself is decorated with some silver studs. The short and seductive hot pants and even more sexyness to the whole look. The huge chain wings really caught my heart. It must have taken days to put those together.

More and more an idea for the complete look did grow in my head and certainly it was a dark fantasy one, my favourite styles anyway 😉

I remembered the “Bellona” set from EMO-tions, wich is part of the Fantasy Gacha Fair at the moment. If you get all parts you have a wonderful collar, forearm and hand parts.

The “Lady of Highgarden” shoulder parts from aisling I found at a gacha event that was all about the Game of Thrones series.

Now with all the fantasy gear there was no way to just go with ‘common’ shoes. I had to use my super old “Kali Hooves” from Violet Studios.

The finish made the “Birdy” body tattoo from White Widow and one of my long time favourites makeup from Nuuna’s.
