[AD] Creations – “Ecate” for the FIERA Spring Fashion Fair 2014 @ SAVIAD

The FIERA Spring Fashion Fair 2014 at SAVIAD is open. It will last until the 31st of March and many designers made wonderful spring themed creations.

TAXI: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/CSW%20Island/72/191/2802

For my second post I want to showcase one of the wonderful creations of [AD] Creations. Aliza Karu is one of the owners of SAVIAD and so she is part of a genius 3-some of designers, who make this possible.

The wonderful “Ecate” mesh dress is a wonderful dark, elegant and as well fantasy looking creation. The combination of opaque fabrics, laced decorations and fantasy looking wings just made this creation to a must have for me. The “Ecate” gown has so many different way to style it up, I will have a lot of more fun with that in the future, too 😉

The tight basic accents the shape in a wonderful way and gives the whole look the elegant and adult looking touch. The laces parts at the shoulders again make it more playful and romantic again. If you like it more simle you just can use the shoulder arts without the ruffles as it is as well included in the whole pack. The hear piece as well is part of that wonderful dress. The little bow made of pearls combined with the black roses just makes the dot on the “i” to complete the look.

The poses you can find as well at the FIERA Spring Fashion Fair, at the store of *PosESioN*. Dahriel made some amazing new pose set for the fair. Some of the new poses are kinda a 2 in 1. Lightly animated moving from one pose to another. Certainly you can find his ‘normal’ runway poses as well as always with a wondeful smooth transition. As well you will find 2 of the “Posesive” sets. Incredible poses for editorial and art shoots.

The hair was made by Mirja Mills, owner and designer of EMO-tions. The “Anne” hair style is a non symetric one, with kinda a curled ponytail that comes to the front over your right shoulder. The fatpack again comes with the super cool HUD what really saves your inventory from being overloaded as you can change the color of the hair via the HUD. So ladies… only 2 items more for your inventory instead of one for each color 😉 .

The amazing face decoration is the “”Giulia” mask from SoliDea FoliEs. It is the item of the actual Couturier’s Docks but I am not really sure if there are some left. It was limited to 50 pieces only and when I looked the last time when I was there they nearly all were gone… but… you never know :p .

Styling around a sideboard?

by

Gothic Lolita 001

Styling around a sideboard or a sideboard as styling accessory?

Yes you read right ;). This time, I wanted to showcase the new “Sophia Sideboard” from Leezu, that wou will find at the Arcade gacha event. The “Sophia Sideboard” is available in 8 different colors and textures  in the closed version like we have it on the pictures. The 2 rares are a dark and white sideboard with open compartments and some clothing hanging out, very cute.

So since I call my blog mainly a fashion blog I usually combine furniture, plants and whatever with some stylings ;).

For today I had a rose tinted sideboard so I wanted to find something matching ;).

As all of you know probably about my pink allergy, I decided to have just a little bit of pink for my look 😉 . Ok.. even maybe more because I wanted to let the sideboard shine and pop out a little more but the first reason sounded better :p .

I am an addicted to the creations of Mila Tatham, so I looked through my SoliDea FoliEs folder until I found the “Caoimhe” dress. This stunning and lovely black  white dress with its pink petals just was what I had in mind. To break the lovely and playfull look, I decided to go heavy on the makeup.

It was kinda fate when Malicia Paython, owner and designer of Silken Moon, showed me one of her releases for the skin fair. It starts tomorrow, the 15th of march, and there you will find the “Go Faster Nun”. The “Go Faster Nun” has different options to wear it. You can wear it as a full with the upperbody connected to  the face in black or you only can wear the facepart. The black mask covers the lower face from the nose down and has a black stripe up between the eyes. To make sure the full versions can be worn with the various avatar enhancements, Silken moon as well offers a Slink applier for the hands and a Lola’s Bra applier for the mesh boobies, if you like to wear them. To add back some sweet and nice I added the “Cherry Blossom” makeup with it’s sweet veins and pink flowers under the left eye.

To add a bit more roughness I wanted to wear the “stp boots” from Death Row Design. I got them longer time ago and never found the right styling to add them. With the black & white striped lower leg it was the perfect addition to the “Caoimhe” dress from SoliDea FoliEs.

To make the look complete I used the “Kat” hair, made by EMO-tions. This special hair style was made for the Kattaca Challenge of  the MVW 2014 for one of the contestants. This wild and extraordianry hairstyle comes with a wonderful painter accessory that you can add if you like. For this post I skipped it as the colors did not match my idea of the black & white with some pink 😉

Wicca’s Wardrobe at the Couturier’s Docks!

by

WM - Elegant Evening Set

Today’s post is very special for me 🙂 . I was invited to be part of the Couturier’s Docks with my new brand Wicca’s Wardrobe. Some of you might know already that I started making poses for my blog posts and pictures. At some point people asked me why I would not sell them… and so my store Wicca’s Wardrobe was born 😉 . I thought a lot of what kind of poses I would like to do, as I have many dear friends who make poses and as well there is a lot of pose stores on the grid already. So I decided not to make only runway poses. I wanted to do ‘Poses for Purposes’. Sets of 5 poses who always are made for a special purpose, like huge hats or cool handbags. Tha’s as well the reason, why all my pose sets carry kinda funny names as they always kinda tell what they are made for.

You can imagine, how happy and excited I was. when I got asked if I would like to be part of the Couturier’s Docks of Mila Tatham. The Couturier’s Docks are a special place at SaliMar, where all those amazing and popular designers sell special items, which are limited to 50 pieces each. For me it was – and is – a huge honor that I may be part of that. I wanted to create a very special set for this event.

It was kinda fate that, at the time when I was thinking what set I could make, I met a very dear friend of mine. Sazzy Nirpaw, in the past she was one of my students and over the time a wonderful friendship developed. She popped in my IMs and asked me if I could take a look at one of her stylings. She always dresses very classy and elegant but never boring what I really admire. As I saw her in that fabulous outfit an idea was born in my head for a pose set. I asked her if she would have some time to work with me on a pose set, that would go with her amazing outfit. She agreed and so we started working. After some time the “Elegant Evening Set” was born 🙂 . Thank you so much Sazzy for your time and patience!

The “Elegant Evening Set” is a special set for… like the name says.. an elegant evening outfit, that as well works with a little clutch. The poses are not only safe and nice, they have some edges that let every fashionista shine with pride and self-esteem.

Only 50 sets of the “Elegant Evening Set” are available at the Couturier’s Docks and quite some already got sold. So if you wanna own your special “Elegant Evening Set”, make your way over to SaliMar, where the Couturier’s Docks are located 😉 .

Today I have some wonderful news from the Hairfair 2013 again, together with one of the latest releases of SoliDea FoliEs.

This post today is a perfect example for what happens if you are not quite sure what you wanna do*giggles*

Solidea+Maimai Gautcho 002

I was fooling around with some clothing and just tried the “Blue” outfit from SoliDea FoliEs as  got the latest releases for the Hairfair from Miamai.

I tried all the wonderful new hair styles as I came across the “Latin Lover” style. A wonderful unisex ponytail with a hat. I was looking at myself for sometime not sure what I shall think, as all of a sudden  a picture of the portoguese Cavaleiros. Cavaleiros are male or female horseman or woman, kinda riders, out of the 18th century.  Maybe it was a female version of a spanish Matador even, I have no clue what made my mind fly off like that*grins* but I saw me sitting with my new made style on a horseback*siggles*

Solidea+Maimai Gautcho 003

I am sure the “Blue” outfit was not made for this purpose, but it was just too tempting to give it a try. Usually you have a huge headpiece of petals as well for your head I just skipped that for the “Latino Lover” hairstyle from Miamai. I added some nipple pastsies and a necklace from DECO… and for sure the horse*grins* The “Blue” outfit is a pants outfit with awesome huuuge ruffles and a wonderful mesh corset. The petals give a wonderfil payful touch to the whole outfit.

Solidea+Maimai Gautcho 004

And now the horror started.. find a horse and a sim.. after looking for 2 days I found both and had a lot of fun fooling around with the various possibilities of the horse in front of a beautiful background.  I wanted to give the pics an aged, used look. As I never did that before it was al ot of experimenting but I am happy about the outcome so far 😉

The Hairfair will be gone soon so make sure you go and buy for a good case, as many donations go to the Wigs for Kids charity!

Louis Vuitton inspired with SoliDea FoliEs

by

Solidea - Vuiletton Inspired 001

As I got one of the latest releases from SoliDea FoliEs I immediately had to think about the last Louis Vuitton collection. With all the squares and colored versions of it I wanted to make soething according to that and with the “Twiggy” outfit I instantly has an idea for the pictures 😉 .

The “Twiggy” outfit of SoliDea FoliEs is based on black and white squares with some color accents. I chose the black version for this post but you can find other colors as well 😉 .

The whole outfit is mesh made and you have different sizes to make sure it fits your avatar.

Solidea - Vuiletton Inspired 002

The black bracelets are part of the outfit too. I looked at myself and I really wanted some hat of head pice that goes with the “Twiggy” outfit from SoliDea FoliEs. I searched through my inventory but I could not find any, so I stormed Kyra Camel’s IM. Kyra owns her own brand for female and male clothing, named Baboom and she made crazy head pieces before that she showed me in the past so I asked her if she could make me something squared with yellow accents. She showed me many of her creations and all of a sudden she pulled out a hat I fell immediately in love with. She retextured the hat to squares for me and I asked her if I can have that cute flower in a yellow tone that matches the yellow on the outfit. It just took her seconds  to do that for me and on top she made me a matching clutch.

To bing back some yellow accents to my face as well, I remembered a tintable version of the “Dahlinka Wild-Zebra” makeup from Zibska.

A last look into the mirror and some yellow squared background and ready was the Louis Vuietton inspired imagination 😉

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Jewelry Tree

by

SoliDea+Finesmith full

Today I was in a little black mood again and wanted to do something semi formal, elegant but still something artistic. Sometimes you have something in your mind and it just does not wanna come out. I was trying for over 2 hours … different outfits, accessories.. nothing wanted to ‘click’ in my mind and set something free or meet my imagination or feelings. The all of a sudden I came across the “Haudrey Night” head piece from SoliDea FoliEs. That was a great basic to start with. I looked through all the new releases from SoliDea FoliEs to find a matching outfit. The “Sofia” dress was the perfect outfit and slowly the idea for the style and picture were growing inside my head 🙂

The tight shoulder free dress and the wonderful head piece let room for some extravagant jewelry. Not too long ago Finesmith released the set that was made for the Finesmith Muse 2014 poster. The set contains two chest and two body parts. in silver with light green gems and light pink flowers. The “Haudrey Night” head piece has some black pearls on it and i wanted to bring them back, so I added the bracelet from the “Maniko” set as well from Finesmith.

Now I needed some scenery and I have no clue why but a ‘Jewelry Tree’ was stuck in my mind  all of a sudden. I did not wanna have a spring tree with lots of petals and stuff and I remembered an old dead tree I bought ages ago for an event deco. To decorate the tree with jewelry I needed something that brings something organic with it. The”Love doesn’t grow on trees” set! yes that could be an idea. Finesmith released this set last year and I already fell in love with it  as it came out. The combination of organic parts like the wooden parts of the eye ornaments and the wonderful combination of all those different materials and shapes in the necklace were just perfect. I only had to resize them to make them really big so that I could decorate the dead tree with them.

Now I only had to place myself into that tree and my imagination became true 🙂

Crazy Connection: The Soul Mirror

by

CC Solidea & AD 3

The Soul Mirror

Loki was an immortal, some even thought him to be a kind of evil god. In fact he was a magician who simply stole the life from others. Being a handsome man, he liked the girls wooing over him, wherever he met them. But he did not really care for the women he could have easily. And he could get quite obsessed with the ones that ignored him.

Once, his eye fell on a very pretty girl and he thought her an easy pray for his looks and charms. But she did not fall for him. Always polite, she turned him down. He sent her flowers, he sent her gifts and she always thanked him heartily – but her heart did not warm up to him.

CC Solidea & AD 4

He got mad at every man around her, even her brothers and made their lives difficult wherever he could. But that only made her care more for those who suffered his magical interferences. Loki got so frustrated about not getting his will, he decided to make her his by force.

He weaved a gown from cobwebs and added shiny mirrors made from frozen tears. When it was ready, he went to the girl under the pretext of saying goodbye. She let him in and accepted the farewell-gift. He begged her to try it on and she did. But as soon as she looked into one of the mirrors, she felt her soul being drawn into one of the mirrors. Her body stood there like a statue.

CC Solidea & AD 2

Loki snatched the mirror, her soul was trapped in and looked at her. “Now you are mine at last!” He cried out in triumph. She just looked at him with such a sadness, that what was left from his heart broke. Feeling he did something wrong for the first time in aeons overwhelmed in and he broke the mirror, and so the spell and let her go.

Having returned to her body she felt like she had fell asleep for some seconds. Looking at Loki clutching a piece of mirror in mental agony. He cut his hand and as his blood touched the magic mirror, some very old magic came to life. He was granted a wish. In his state the only thing he wished for was to be loved and cause no more harm.

He dropped dead to the floor – because this is the only way to grant someone never hurts somebody else again.

Wicca’s Wardrobe: LOTD 02/05/2013 – Window Shopping!

by

Baboom Balloons Full

Yesterday I was not in the best mood so I decided to take a “day off” and just went some window shopping.

First I wanted to see the new store of Kyra Camel, owner and designer of Baboom. So I made my way to her new Mainstore. It was closed to the public still, so I had a dreamy time looking through all her stuff without lag and too many people there :p. I already have nearly the whole store, but as I was looking through the 2 floors of amazing designs this wonderful mesh tunic with the matching leggings caught my attention. I never saw them before. The “Legere” outfit you can find in different colors and as I was debating on wich color I should get, I saw it only was 99L$!!! No question, I had to take all of them*giggles*

After that, I went to the Couturier’s Docks to see what news I can find there. And I totally was caught by the “Miss Heart Black” hat from BaObA. This amazing combination of roses, hearts and some petals just did blow me away and I had to get it.

All of a sudden one of the latest releases from [Cliche] came to my mind and I remembered that I got the “Pilar” ankle boots lately with those amazing little studs. Slowly a look was growing in my mind as I saw the wonderful “Dangerous Spikes” jewelry set from A&Ana Fashion at the TDR Fusion.

Last but not least I made my way over to the new Collabor88 sim. They had a lot of amazing stuff as well and I got quite a few things there too but what really touched me was the “Room of Balloons” from Exposeur  & The Loft. The whole room is modify able and you can push and pull the balloons around like and change the colors to make it fit  to your picture idea. As well it has 12 single and 5 couple poses inbuilt. On top you get a sweet little green balloon as an extra prop you can carry as well.

As I was back home at my photo studio, I tried to figure out a picture. But all that I tried was not really satisfying. Maybe because the “Room of Balloons” was made for being snapped with shadows and I still cannot do pictures with shadows again as I always crash as soon as I enable lightning and shadows in SL. As I was shortly before despairing, my sweet little brother came over and saw the “Room of Balloons” and my styling and he asked me what I was doing. I told Dahriel about my little depression and that I seem not to be able to snap a good picture for what ever reason. He liked the room with all the balloons, so he decided to help me and made the snapshots for me. After he sent them over to me, I could work on them. That really saved my day 😉 Thank you sweet brother for helping me out 😉

I really enjoyed my window shopping and I was not planning on making a special post about it, but after all those amazing things I found, I thought it would be worth it 😉

My personal favourites of MVW2013 – Formal Gown of Italy 2013 by SoliDea FoliEs

by

MVW 2013 Italy Formal full

Miss Virtual World 2013 – Again BoSL showcased an amazing event on December the 15th 2013, with the finale of the MVW 2013 contest. Many countries were represented by amazing ladies and it was really an exciting event. Designers and models worked together for their 2 final looks. One evening gown and one national costume for each lady. Every year when I saw the MVW finale it was an exciting moment to see the results, that designers and models worked on for so many weeks. Last year I took the challenge to make a full catalogue of all the gowns and costumes. The idea must have inspired some bloggers this year and they started to do that for the MVW 2013 designs. I decided for my own not to do the same again and just would like to showcase my personal favourites. First I thought about to do my personal top 12, but then I figured that I like more than 12 and just thought about doing all the ones that really caught my attention in no particular order

:)

The italian community was always very strong represented in many MVW challenges… we had Mimmi Boa 2009 winning the crown, Mavi Beck in 2010 in the top 10, Angels Milena in 2011 in the top 12 and Anna Sapphire as winner of the MVW 2012 crown and again Italy was able to place on the winner stairs with a 1st runner-up in 2013 again!

The wonderful formal gown for Natzuka Millandrovic, Miss Italy 2013, was made by Mila Tatham, genius designer and owner of SoliDea FoliEs. What caught my eyes most of this dress was the incredible skirt. All those ruffles on the first view look like they would have been added totally confused… but if you take a second look you can see the incredible idea of this ruffle attachment. The wonderful bodice is covered with little white, silver and blue gemstones and the blue belt make a wonderful accent on the white gown. The ruffles are brought back above the side of the chest. For me the combination of white and blue with all this ruffles and gems made a perfect formal gown for a MVW runner-up 😉
