White Widow meets Fellini Couture!!!

by

Fellini Couture, known for extravagant and fanciful designs did a nice cooperation with White Widow,fantastic face tattoos made by Julie Hastings!

Lets have a look at the dress first…

“Hera” is a wonderful little piece of art. The skirt is not symmetric, it only falls down on the right side of the legs. The texture Joy Fellini chose is an arrangement of black peacock feathers very filigree and highly detailed. The waist part also is a combination of fathers and flower petals.Ā  A tight prom corset surrounds the waist and is decorated with sweet little buttons in the front. For the top we have a shoulder free corsage that makes a wonderful cleavage. Again we have a prim attachment on the upper hem of the top that also repeats the theme of this stunning dress.

The incredible headpiece with the big dark orchidee is also part of the outfit as well as the earrings! Again above the orchidee we can see the black peackock feathers we have in the skirt also.

According to this theme of the peacock feathers Julie Hastings made a stunning face tattoo. The “Peacock” tattoo from White Widow was specially made for this dress and it matches perfect to complete that stunning look! The filigree lines and ornaments perfectly repeat the main theme of that outfit. “Hera” and “Peacock” are not the only combination of Fellini Couture and White Widow… best is you take a look for yourself for all the other stunning “couples” šŸ˜‰

For the shoes I chose one of the new Mea Culpa creations called “Lizzard”

This pair of fantastic heels requires one of the new viewers like SL 2.0 or higher or one of the new ones that feature alpha layers. This made it possible to have the amazing lace on the feet and still can show toenails!!! The amazing high plateaus are perfect for a very stylish and fashionable outfit like this. The shape of the heel is a nono usual one and shows off character šŸ˜‰ In the front you can see wonderful gemstones. The shoes come with HUD that allws to change the colors of the gemstones and a few others features like the nail color also and you can match your shoes perfect to your skin tone! If you TP to the Mea Culpa Mainstore you will find more of that incredible shoe designs that really stand out in the design and ideas!

La Dolce Vita – Mea Culpa shows how beautiful it can be ;)

by

“La Dolce Vita”Ā  – wich better name could such a fantastic gown have… Tatanka Kaligawa again showed his creativity if it comes to style and design.Ā  A wonderful gown in 3 different colors that caught the theme of the name.

A tight long skirt with an amazing combination of transparent lace and a wonderful opaque texture with an amazing shine. The skirt is decorated with 3 sharp long spikes on the right side.The skirt itself that starts at the lower legs is made of wonderful lace that underlines the filigree and aerial theme of this gown. The waist is decorated with another lace part on each side of the hips. Another wonderful accessory is the chain belt that surrounds the waist so perfect.

The top is a little piece of art itself. Again Tatanka shows his great skills if it comes to textures. The top is a combination of different fabrics and ornamented textures that go perfect together. The sides are open and give the whole gown a lightly sexy touch. The sleeves are made of a wonderful filigree lace with amazing ruffles at the end. This sweet ruffles you also can find as a frame for the deep neckline framing a wonderful looking cleavage.

Another great eye catcher is the hat that also is part of the outfit. The big lace hat gives the perfect “La DolceVita”Ā  feeling and is the perfect accessory to give the whole gown a very elegant touch. Again we have the 3 long sharp spikes this time on the left side.

My totally highlight for this outfit is the incredible beautiful and detailed mask. It is a tattoo layer so only to use with one of the new viewers that feature tattoo layers, like SL 2.0 and higher or Phenix, Imprudence, Emergence or all the ones that have this special feature. Again we can see the love for the detail that we know from Mea Culpa designs. Every little thing is made so perfectly. Again we have 3 spikes above each eye and an amazing decoration of long flexible “whiskers”

Overall this gown again is a wonderful piece that shows how artistic fashion and couture can be. If you have time just visit the Mea Culpa Mainstore and see all the other great news šŸ™‚

Mea Culpa – Shoes are the girls best friend ;)

by

Lately Tatanka Kaligawa, designer of Mea Culpa started to make his own shoe line. Extravagant and extraordinary shoes for the modern fashionista! On top in the first pic we see one of his latest creations named “Lizzard” For this wonderful pair of shoes you need the viewer 2.0 or higher or one of that ones that feature the alpha and tattoo layers. The amazing lace covers the whole foot and you nevertheless can see the nails! As always the shoes come with a HUD to match it like you want to šŸ™‚ For “Lizzard” you can change the color of skin, nails, straps and the extras šŸ™‚

“Medusa” the second pair is called that I wanna show you. The design combines being spikey and playful šŸ˜‰

The heel itself has a nice twisted shape and the combination of flowers and spikes really makes an interesting look. also for this shoes you need one of the new viewers because of the lace on the sides, the alpha layer should be usable.This shoes come for sure with the HUD too so you can change colors and skin as you like and need šŸ™‚

Up next we have “Predator” one of my personal favourites… if I would have to choose… thank god I do not have to as I really love all of them *grins*. For this one you only can change the color of the flash on the sides and the nails and for sure the skin tone šŸ™‚

The heels are extremely high and you really have to practice walking on that shoes, but if you made it…you will be the star on every event*winks* The black is broken by awesome silver and shining parts. Really an eye catcher!

This pair of shoes caught my eyes…with the open back. The possibility to change the texture of the basic shoe and also the straps and the “gems” in front,Ā  make it possible to match every outfit.

Also the nails are color changable. With the HUD that Mea Culpa gives to the shoes you are not only able to change to set colors for the nails or the skin. For the color change you have also – beside the set colors – a big color change square, so you can really match every color you need for example for the nails!

“Domantic” is has a very interesting shape. The ankles are covered by a lovely leather looking texture that can be changed in colors and the strap over the toes will always follow in color šŸ˜‰

The front is closed by lines and in the back you have tiny sharp spikes. Careful gentlemen šŸ˜‰ Do not provocate a lady wearing that shoes šŸ˜‰

The skin and nails can be changed to match your avatar and outfit.

“Imagination” look like the ‘rebel sister’ of the “Domantic”

They have the same great features as the ‘good girl sister’ but the heel is a very special one. This flash looking heel really caught me as you can show the little fashion rebel inside you.. what suits me sometimes šŸ˜‰ Also we have 3 little straps added what give the whole shoe a different flair to the other one.

My last pair of Mea Culpa shoes for today is called “Prestige”. For me this one works perfect for pants also not just for the wonderful dresses and gowns;) I fell in love with the shape of the heels of this pair of shoes.

Not as spikey as for example the “Imagination” but it shoes of character also šŸ˜‰ All the buckles and straps again show of the love and eye for the detail we all know from Mea Culpa šŸ™‚

With this amazing shoes you will be always dressed right and show off your sense for fashion and the love to dare to style very stylish šŸ™‚

So make your way to the Mea Culpa Mainstore and choose the pair that suits you and your style best… or even more than one šŸ˜‰

Sneak Preview – Mea Culpa Shoes!

by

Lastly as I was straightening up the laboratory of Tatanka Kaligawa a bit I suddenly stumbled over something… I looked down and..it was a single shoe..I was wondering how this came up here as he usually does not have ladies up in his laboratory but mine it were not too.. and I never saw himself in heels*winks* … I looked closer and saw a Mea Culpa logo on the sole…

My boss made shoes!!! I looked around but no one was there and he told me he would be out for a walk to get his head free for new ideas..and this can take time šŸ˜‰ I searched for the second of that animal print shoes and before I found it I grabbed another pair from under his desk…

A sweet pair of ankle boots with a great texture and amazing accessories…

Again I saw the Mea Culpa logo on the sole and smiled..thinking on how I can smuggle them out of his laboratory…suddenly I found the second one of the animal print one and right beside another pair…

Wow! another pair of ankle boots with a fantastic heel…

Suddenly I heard the key at the door..he was coming back..I grabbed those 3 pairs and run out to the back door..

But as far as I know Tatanka it will not take long till the shoes will be available at the Mea Culpa Mainstore šŸ˜‰

Wicca’s Wardrobe – Workshift at LeeZu ;)

by

Today I quarried through my wardrobe as I was getting ready for me LeeZu Modeling shift and searching for an outfit to wear…

I ended up with a neat combination of different things šŸ˜‰

The “Cat Tighs” in black are a nice basic to start with… and after a look out of the window I decided that a jacket will be enough as a top and the “Margo” jacket in black would be the perfect desicion šŸ™‚ A nice break for the black I put on the “O`LaLa Micro” jeans skirts in the ‘used’ color what broke the black very nicely without disturbing. As the days go colder I pulled out the “Miss Mara” scarf in ethno black and wrapped it around my neck.

Last but not least…shoes…suddenly I reminded that I got these prototypes of the new Mea Culpa shoes from Tatanka Kaligawa… “Raptor” they are called and not yet officially released..but as far as I know Tatanka it will not take too long, till they are available at the store so I can use them for my todays outfit šŸ˜‰ A last look into the mirror…approved šŸ˜‰

I took my keys and leftthe home for a nother shift at the LeeZu Mainstore… as nearly everyday ;), so if you like come visit me there and you can take look at the store and I can help if needed šŸ™‚

In the end IĀ  have the great honor to give you a peek on the next pose set of Body Talking. For this post I used the new “Sunny” set, made by Arisia Ashmoot. I had the great pleasure to be again a model for her vendor šŸ˜‰ and she allowed me to use it as a sneak preview for this blog post šŸ™‚

As far as I know Arisia, if she finds the time she will put the new set in the store by tomorrow latest ;), so make sure you do not miss the release of “Sunny” and stop by at the new Body Talking Mainstore!

“Black Widdow” is the latest release of Tatanka Kaligawa, designer of Mea Culpa. A beautiful black and mystical gown that turns heads everywhere. The long gown is decorated with amazing silver ornaments that go over the whole outfit. The prims that are attached in the back give a lightly asian touch, and make a wonderful transparent contrast. The big “fan” looking back parts are lightly transparent and wonderful flexible and move behind with every step you take. The clothing layers are made of amazing detailed textures that give the whole gown a fantastic formal and sophisticated touch. The shoulders carries very noble and lightly puffy sleeves. A total eye catcher is the hat. it is connected to the spine and “hovers” over your head. Lace hangs down in the back and the front is decorated with light silver lines. On the top of the hat you can find 2 awesome flowers that add a lightly sweet touch as a sweet contrast to the spiky, silver neck collar.

“Noite do Brasil” is a colorful outfit for the brave and color loving fashionista…the Carnival in Rio, or even for the special showgirl that wants to be outstanding šŸ˜‰

The body itself is only covered by a wonderful short body suit without sleeves. At the belly you have an awesome gold framed space where you can show off wonderful belly jewels also šŸ˜‰ The center for this outfit is definitely the back where the big, fluffy pink and purple parts and feathers are attached.Ā  The hips are ornamented with little feathers too. The feet are covered by 2 pink parts too what bring the theme of the outfit lovely back at the bottom. Silver, spiky additions are the ankle parts, the shoulder attachments, the chest decoration and the fabulous head jewelry. A combination of noble metal and feathers make the perfect head pice for this extraordinary design!

(Outfit: Mea Culpa – “Nocturnal Princess” /purple, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

Today I have the great pleasure to show you new releases and the contest winners for Mea Culpa’s first picture contest!

For first I would like to show you the latest releases that Tatanka Kaligawa put in his Mainstore.

Seen also in the first picture we have the “Nocturnal Princess” here in purple. You also can purchase this amazing dress in gold and blue at the Mea Culpa Mainstore.

(Outfit: Mea Culpa – “Nocturnal Princess” /purple, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

This amazing and wonderful gown has a light vintage touch combines with a modern design. Based on the early 20th century fashion this creation was made in a modern way. The top is a stunning corset that shows off the very well-shaped waist of every lady. It goes down in a nice body that can be seen in the sweet skirt. The skirt has a very sexy touch. It looks like only connected lightly to the hips but it as a huge cut-out over the lap and the backside. that shows off the lower part of the body and it’s amazing texture very well and adds an awesome sexy look. The great spikes on the left shoulder and the left hand waist side add a perfect modern view.

On the hat you can find this spikes again and also the fantastic ruffles that decorate and make the skirt.

(Outfit: Mea Culpa – “Nocturnal Princess” /purple, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The next outfit carries the great name “Phenix Experience”…

(Outfit: Mea Culpa – “Phenix Experience”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

This designs lightly reminds me of kinds silk, even if it has a totally other texture and no waving satin parts šŸ˜‰ but it has a touch of an ethnic style.Ā  The basic makes a lovely designs body that covers the upper body. A purple pattern texture covers the layer parts framed by amazing gold lines. The flexible prim parts are moving amazing with every step or turn. The shoulder parts give a powerful touch and also the great gold mask with its spikes is part of that outfit!

My last outfit for today really caught my heart…even if all Mea Culpa designs do… but this really hit my inner šŸ˜‰

(Outfit: Mea Culpa – “Lost in Netherworld”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

“Lost in Netherworld” is the name of the newest design of Mea Culpa. Totally in white it has a lightly fantasy attire and reminds a bit of a creature out if the Netherworld šŸ˜‰ If you walk you can see the lovely flexible prims moving behind and round about you and you feel like a ghost that lightly hovers over the ground. Many prim attachments like the neckpart of the belt round the waist give a great edgy opposite to the huge, smoothly waving prim parts at your back. The clothing layers are also made with the love to the detail if you for example look at the top. 2 thin lines hold the top and close at the back of the neck. The chest part is covered by an amazing texture that repeats the aerial lace style of the tha back prim parts. This wonderful creation definitely turns heads and it again shows off Tatanka Kaligawa’s great skills if it comes to ides, creating, designing, style and texturing šŸ™‚
