Mea Culpa – New Release, Latest Releases and a fantastic Contest!!!

Today I am allowed to show again New and latest releases from Mea Culpa! I got 3 fantastic outifts to showcase and also Tatanka Kaligawa, designer of Mea Culpa told me that he will have a fantastic contest!!!

My first outfit, that you also can see in the first pic up, is called “Out of the Deep”

The name is program and this incredible outfit is covered by many little highlights. The whole outfit is in a light and bright blue that shines and glows all over. Little shells and amazing waving prims make this outfit to a perfect design if you wanna be the center of view 😉 The textures of the layers are awesome detailed and you can get the light imagination of a mermaid with the lovely painted scales on the clothing layers.

The second outfit was made for the Miss Egypt 2011 of the MVW contest. “Sierra Morte”. Luralie Bailey is one of the official candidates and she represents Egypt for 2011.

The dress is made in amazing brown tones with a lovely couture touch. Dark and light parts are perfectly arranged to give the outfit the special touch!

Like all Mea Culpa outfits “Sierra Morte” is made of fantastic detailed and lovely handprinted textures and amazing extra ordinary prims. The hat carries a yellow decoration and the same color you will find on the right hand side of the outfits at the hips on the flexible spikes. The texture of the top and also the sheered skirt are made in a lighter shade of brown that perfectly matches the dark brown of the hat, the attachment round the upper body and the sleeves of the top.

Last outfit for today is the newest release of Mea Culpa called “Heavenly Marriage”. A wonderful bridal outfit, that has the special different and extraordinary touch. Beautiful white attachments move dreamy round your body while walking. The short top allows a peek on your skin what gives a very sexy touch also. 😉

The amazing headpiece with the smooth veil also is part of the special bridal gown. In this close up you can see the lovely folds of the veil that let it look very realistic. also you can take a closer look on the beautiful and stunning top and the great prim that decorates the belly. Overall a dream in white what makes it tempting to think about your own wedding 😉

They are wonderfully made and have so nice details that they look very realistic. The shape of the toes is beautiful… the toes are not too long also not too short ..perfectly 🙂 They are wonderful and I tested it for a few days also I got the extra nail polishes.
The menu is very easy to handle and very good to understand. Also the adding of the new nailpolishes is very easy and good to do.

You have the choice to change the color of the leather straps to black or brown, you just need to click on the strap for the buckle. The studs also change colors between old gold, silver and bronze.  Simply click on the top back stud to get the pop-up menu.

Two separate color packs will be available, one being a suede finish and the second a canvas finish. To change the color in the color packs click the top prim of the bootie to get the pop-up menu.

A nice addition are the above mentioned extra nail polishes that extend the possibilities to match each and every outfit. There is a basic nailpolish set and also different nude shades included but for the special nailpolishes you have to get the extensions packs.

 Nail polish packs give NARDCOTIX MANA’s a unique variety and new twist on SL toe-shoes.

Summer is coming and SAS- Sascha’s Design opens the season with a new colorful and cute outfit. “Lucy Loo” is a very aerial and young-looking outfit that comes with 5 different versions of leggings per color. The dress itself you can wear in 2 different options.

One version more like a baby doll the other more like a short dress. But i liked the idea to combine both 🙂

I got the pink and aqua version to show… first I will start with the pink one…

Always the dress it self carries the main color and the leggings you can add like you want choosing between the 5 different textures.

The bright pink of the main dress goes wonderful with the pink, white, yellow designed leggings. If you variate accessories and shoes you can add for each one a different touch.

Up next I would like to showcase the aqua version also.

Basically it is the same the pink one. The leggings come in the same colors just the main dress changes the color.

For all versions of this outfit I chose jewelry from Ganked and shoes from Stiletto Moody. Both wer perfect with the colors and options to fit the amazing colors of the SAS “Lucy Loo” outfit. Sascha Frangili again created a wonderful outfit with many possibilities to wear. So don’t miss to stop by at the SAS Mainstore 🙂

News from Angel Dessous – “Madeleine” arrived at the Mainstore :)

Again I have the great pleasure to show you one of the latest releases of Angel Dessous. Nando Korobase again shows his great skills and the love to the detail, also the various possibilities that one outfit can have 🙂

“Madeline” is the name of the new outfit that has 3 different options to wear. As always you can choose from amazing colors. For my blog we have “Madeleine” in raven and fuchsia. Up first we can see the long and elegant gown version of “Madeleine” in raven. A long flexible skirt that falls awesome from the hips down till the seam reaches the ground. The top part of the gown is lovely shoulder free and made with a deep neckline. To complete the wonderful elegant look we have matching gloves included.

Not only different skirt options are part of this awesome dress, also the shoulder part made of beautiful detailed flowers has 2 options to wear. For the elegant long gown I decided to wear the longer flower rank that lays over the left shoulder down to the hips.

The second version can be a short skirt combined with just a little flower decoration on the left sie of the chest. If you take a close look at the skirt, you can see the fantastic lace texture that caresses over the upper legs.

The sweet incredible head-piece is also part of the whole outfit. If you wanna have a more elegant touch you can wear it to nearly all hair styles cause it s attached on the side of the head.

Last but not least you can wear “Madeleine” as a tight sexy mini dress for cocktail parties, at work or also for a short shopping trip 🙂 All the accessories and skirt versions make every look possible 😉
