Circus! – Faster Pussycat meets Machoire

Circus 1

I have no clue how this idea was born…

That was one of the moments when you go over your wardrobe and try to find some inspiration πŸ˜‰

I wanted to do something special for the new “Ganta Heels” from Machoire.

The heels are not only shoes, they are an art piece, so they needed something extraordinary. What could be for such an idea the something from Faster Pussycat!

I saw the “Hydra” outfit during the popstars show at the 24 event last weekend and fell immediately in love with it, A corset paired with a two-part harness and those exciting, wild horn parts covering the waits and chest. There is as well a headpiece matching to them, which I did not use for today’s pictures.

Circus 2

The beautiful and strong-looking tattoo is one of the newest releases from White Widow.Β  Julie Hastings made this one as her contribution to the ‘anyBODY – for applier lovers‘ event.

The while look had kinda a burlesque or even vintage circus feeling and so I was trying to make some pictures in that direction. The poses certainly had to be different for that too as I wanted to highlight the whole look. It is not always easy to drag the focus on shoes if you want to showcase the outfit as well πŸ˜‰

The amazing, cool hair was made by Mirja Mills, owner and designer of EMO-tions.

I have a weakness for circus themes anyways especially the more vintage ones, so this pictures really were a lot of fun πŸ™‚

Business can be fashion and sexy as well ;)

GizzA 01

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

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.

GizzA 02

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

FFL PC 03

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 πŸ˜‰ .

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

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

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

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

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

Soccer World Cup Mania with Edelfabrik & EMO-tions

Edelfabrik 01

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 forΒ  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 πŸ˜‰

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!

Edelfabrik 03

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 πŸ˜‰

Orage 01

Today I have the honor to start a series of posts for the amazing label Orage Creations. I knowΒ Elettra Gausman for quite some time and I always adored her creativity and ideas. Today I am happy to be allowed to showcase one of her latest designs.

The “Leather Glam” dress in the violet, metallic leatherΒ  is an awesome eye catcher. The dress is fully mesh made with the huge and high belt that reminds me about the 80s a little bit. The violet version is only one of all those amazing colors that you can choose from. For the belt you will get a HUD that allows you to change the metal texture between gold and silver.

The wonderful jewelry, wich I chose to wear with the “LEather Glam” dress from Orage Creations is the “Midbar” set from Finersmith. The whole set is menu driven and you can decide about the color of the gems, metals and pendants so that you can make sure it fits all of your looks perfectly.

The whole outfit in that pattern for me totally goes towards a super cute retro look, wich I really like a lot.

Azul, BaObA, PosESioN & Nailed It! for the FIERA Spring Fashion Fair 2014 @ SAVIAD

SAVIAD Azul+Nailed It+BAOBA 001

Azul as well made a beautiful gown for the FIERA Spring Fashion Fair 2014 @ SAVIAD. The “Claro de Luna” gown is a partial mesh gown with as well flexible prims that let some parts flow amazingly with every breeze of air that surrounds you πŸ˜‰ .

The hat as well was made for the FIERA Spring Fashion Fair. BaObA made a few wonderful hats for the fair and the “Orchids” just was the perfect match to the “Claro de Luna” gown.

The beautiful “‘Spring Wedding” nails from Nailed It! are as well one of 2 super cute sets, wich you can find at the SAVIAD sim.

So I just had to find some jewelry and hair to complete the look. The hair comes from EMO-tions and is called “Yashi” with the high updo, I wanted to underline the elegant and still modern look of the dress and the hat.

For the jewelry I wanted something with a timeless chic and I decided to go with the “Talluah” set from Maxi Gossamer.

You still have the chance to look at all the amazing creations at SAVIAD until the end of the month. So better hurry before it is over πŸ˜‰

SAVIAD GizzA + Finesmith 001

One more post for the FIERA Spring Fashion Fair 2014 for today πŸ˜‰

This time I would like to show case one of the amazing creations of GizzA at the SAVIAD sim. The “Lolita Dress” comes with leggings that have the heels included, the hat and the wonderful butterfly belt accessories. With the light brown and beige color it really gives you a feeling of the coming warmer days of spring.

For the jewelry I decided to go with the “Geula” set of Finesmith. The golden brown textures give a wonderful frame for the huge gem and with the beige of the outfit it was just as it was made for it πŸ˜‰ .

To match the beautiful gem I wanted to add some more color to the beige and brown. I remembered one of the “Rainbow” eye shadows. The “Rainbow Mauve” catched the colors of the gem so wonderful and gave the whole look the little bit of color I wanted.

The little bag, I made by myself and I like it so much that I decided to make a few white ones, wich you can find at my first gacha on the SAVIAD sim as well πŸ˜‰

Now I wanna share a secret with you… if you take a look on my skin… yes it is still my custom-made Wicca skin by Silken Moon, but Malicia updated it!

She made a whole new body and as well updated a lot of my facial features. And besides my usual super light tone she made me one version in the new peach tone she made for her new skin line as well! But this I would like to pull over onto a nother post with a total spotlight on my new updated Wicca πŸ˜‰

Black & White Riding Hood?

Mea Culpa & EMO-tions 001

Black & White looks always were a favourite of mine. Today I wanted another one and for the basic I started with one of the pret a porter dresses from Mea Culpa. The simple mesh dress is highlighted with a typical Mea Culpa made texture. The strength of Tatanka’s textures we know from various designs he made in the past. For his pret a porter line he has a lot of pieces and designs that look very simple on the first view, but on the second view you will see the delicate and extravagant textures and the little attachments that make evenΒ  the pret a porter line of Mea Culpa to something special.

Mea Culpa & EMO-tions 002

The “Antares” dress from Mea Culpa makes a wonderful shape line and with the amazing shoulder parts it is a wonderful basic for many kinds of styling.

The headpiece and hair reminded me of the “Red Riding Hood” even if the hood is black πŸ˜‰ . It is the new “Mary-Anne” hairstyle from EMO-tions. EMO-tions released a full line of hair pieces with bangs and various head pieces like caps and beanies and hoods. The interesting new feature is that you get a HUD for the fatpack. No more collecting tons of items in your inventoryΒ  – just the basic style with a HUD that chnages the hair color and as well the hairstyle under the hood or cap πŸ˜‰ .

The amazingΒ  necklace and bracelet are a gacha item from GizzA. The “Electra Set” in black was the perfect addition to the styling, as I only needed a necklace and a bracelet. The wonderful nail polish comes from Nail It. Giela Delpaso made several amazing nail polishes for the slink mesh hands and the “French Manicure – Dart Set” has amazing colors with the typical white top of the french manicure. The special on the Nail It nails is that you always have a prim version and one HUD version for the slink mesh hands and feet. So you can decide whether you wanna wear the mesh hands or your original avatar hands.

The lipstick is one of the latest releases from Silken Moon. The “Luna Lips” come with a special feature. You can decide, if you would like to have your lips closed or lightly parted with a teeth prim attachment. Both version will be in the “Luna Lips” pack that you are purchase.

The boots i found at one of the Colabour88 events from ISON. The “Lace-Up Gladiator Sandals” are working with the slink medium mesh feet, so you can make sure to have the best match for your skin tone with your enhancement HUD applier for your slink mesh feet.

The cool chair comes from 22769 [bauwerk]. I wanted to add some furniture to my post and the “Kafka Black” chair in shape of an insect really kicked my mind. It added a special touch of weirdness and surrealism to my picture, what I really love πŸ˜‰ .

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Today at LeeZu 07/16/2013

LeeZu + Bizarre Hair Fair 001

Today I was in an elegant mood, as I prepared for my shift at LeeZu. I pulled out the “Tatum Gown”, one of the lastest additions to the LeeZu Mainstore. What I liked the most, was the combination of flexible prims and the mesh basic and gloves. Lately so much clothing is only mesh made and that easyly can look boring. LeeZu made the best descison to cover the parts wit mesh that actually really make sense like the body and the arms. Gloves that go over the ellbows look so much nicer when mesh made as just with layers or with pirms. The great flexi parts of the skirt give the whole design some life, as you can see them moving dreamy with every step you take or every turn you do.

LeeZu + Bizarre Hair Fair 002

Since I always have to add something crazy when I wear gowns (yes I was charged that not only once *grins*), I decided to wear one of the new hairstyles of [Bizarre Hair], that MyStiCa Matova, owner and designer of [Bizarre Hair] released for the Hair Fair 2013 that just started. The “Chandelier” hair comes with a full jewelry set as well to matc the amazing pearls that are part of the hair style. With a simple chat command you can even turn the candles on and off what adds a smooth warm light when the candels burn πŸ˜‰

Last but not least I would like to drag your attention on the skin. Malicia Python, owner and designer of Silken Moon, made me a new tone of my Wicca skin *jumps around like crazy*. She already made me that wonderful Wicca skin, that I used to redo my whole avatar and now she made me a special version of my skin in her ‘lumee’ tone. I was telling her that I sometimes ywould like to have a very light and pale version of my skin, especally for fantasy or avantgarde stylings, that still carries my freckles and dimples and all my amazing face features. Since I really liked my new look without the eyebrows she made that incredble, beautiful looking new skin for me. Great news for all Silken Moon lovers and those, who own one of Malicia’s fantastic skins… Mal now made the new enhancement HUD for the SLINK mesh feets and mesh hands!

Lately I was asked so many times, how I found a skin that I am so happy with that I am not willing to change. The answer is easy… Malicia made me my custom skin with all those things I dreamed of on my personal skin. If I think back, how many lindens I spent for various skins and always I had one thing that I did not like… the idea of a custom made skin was the best idea ever. You can talk about your likings and develope a skin with your skin designer and make it so personal, that you not ever wanna change again, as it kinda becomes a part of yourself πŸ˜‰ With the new addition of all those tattoo layers, you only need one basic skin, that you can wear always and add up all those amazing makeups that are out on the grid to make it match to every look πŸ˜‰

But now.. time to leave for my LeeZu shift πŸ˜‰
