Xplosion – young, modern, urban, smart!

by

Today I have the great pleasure to show some of the great designs and the latest release from Xplosion. Owner and designer Kaliha Noel increased her label over the past years to an awesome ‘imperium’. I had the great honor to meet her ages ago, shortly after she started and to see this amazing brand growing over the time was really amazing. So it is for me a special thing to have her designs on my blog 🙂

First I would like to start with one outfit I was allowed to model for the Glance Magazin a few month ago. I chose The “Woman Overall Break” pants. As a basic. The awesome used look was perfect for the styling I wanted to do. The loose strap on the left shoulder that let hang down the left front of the overall pants give a wonderful casual look. A perfect addition is the black “Hoodie” shirt. I just skipped the hood itself and used it as a zipper sweater only 😉 Also the cool “Ladie Cat” shoes are from Xplosion. Neat little heels covered by great urban huge leg warmers are the best decision for the actual season also 😉

Again I have to thank Harsch Sharktooth, who helped me and modeled for the male part 🙂 He is wearing the “Chill Jeans” in light blue. This jeans also have that cool holes that make the basic for the urban-used look. For the top Harsch chose the hoodie and the gloves from the “Men Overall Break” pants outfit. For the actual season he decided to wear the “KBoots” not to get wet feet in those rainy days.

For the absolute highlight Kaliha gave me one of her newest skinst to test and they are simply amazing! I did not have to change anything… it just fitted perfect on my shape. As always the skin comes in different tones and with different colors of lipstick.

Also every lipstick color has 2 versions of eye makeup, one with just smokey eyes and one that is mixed with the color of the lipstick lightly, too! The body is awesome details and every light and shadow is in its place…not toomuch and not too less, just perfect. Also the skin does not have this ugly over glow, it looks lightly powdered and perfect for the everyday look of every fashionista. The face has stunning and great eyes and wonderful sexy and full lips with a very light gloss also perfect designed to give a natural but fashion look. The belly and back look very well-trained and shaped. For me “Nicki” is a wonderful and very realistic looking skin with all kind of perfect features you can have. If you take a closer look you can see that amazing hairbase and hair attachment. This was also one of the latest releases of Xplosion and it is called “Lyra”. You can purchase it in black, brown, blonde, red , silver and white always with the matching hairbase.

You definitely should make your way to the Xplosion Mainstore and see all of Kaliha Noel’s great designs and creations. You also will find a cute discount area where you can find some of the older creations as a give away or even very much discounted… I have to admit I nearly got them all 😉

New fantastic hair attachments at Baiastice!!!

by

Sissy Pessoa did it again!!! She designed 12 incredible new hair attachments. I am very happy to be allowed that I am able to show you all of them. for sure they come in the well-known colors and all shades as usual even if I only have the black version for this blog post only 😉

“Michelle” , a wonderful and smart “up do” for the fresh and modern fashionista. The sweet wisps fly around everywhere as they are not really willing to behave. “Invasion” is a wonderful short hair cut for showing off your rebel attitude;)  “Fiamma” looks like the big sister of “Michelle” and even a bit more bad girl with the wild wisps that stick in the air like flames that raise in the air! “Fedora” is the good girl one of that 4… 😉 An unsymmetrical hairstyle that has the dominant side at the left. “Fedora is perfect for a wonderful evening gown but not boring with the extravagant shape.

“Mylla” is the perfect style for a rocker lady 😉 Sorry that was to tempting 😉 It is for sure not only for them. It has a free forehead and is put together very high on the had falling down your neck over your shoulder. “Sukiu” I would put as the most avantgarde style for this 4. Very straight and very clear you can wear it for couture outfits but also for an elegant ball gown 😉 “Meda” I like to wear with my couture outfits. Also straight and clean but with a wonderful non usual shape;) “Siville” again shows a bit more attitude again as there are some bad wisps on each side for this up do.

“Irene” is one of my actual favourites.. 😉 I so love that cool look with the sideward cap and the sweet wisps that peek out on each side..simply fantastic. “Pistols” is definitive the wildest haircut and it is a bit more the ‘only’ an attachment as it covers most of the head also. “Shilova” is a long hairstyle again. The sweet tail is parted in 2 parts at the back of the head and moves wonderful flexible behind you. Wanna do some sports? The “Tennis” is the right hairstyle for you. The cool cap is part of that hair!

You really should make your way to the Baiastice Mainstore and see wich one and wich color is yours 😉 I do not wanna miss one of them 😉

I so was feeling the neat bad girl that I really enjoyed this last pic a lot… even if I took of the cigarette because of the smoke;)  The great shirt is from R:A:D and I really fell in love with. It is not the only one made by Redclaw Inshan 🙂

New hair attachments by PurpleMoon!!!

by

PurpleMoon lately released fantastic hair attachments with the perfect matching hair bases, like we can see on the first pic. But lets take a closer look at the outfit, also one of the latest releases of PurpleMoon – “Gator”

A beautiful, extravagant outfit that can be worn with long or a short skirt. This first picture shows the long skirt version. Also you can choose between the huge neck collar or just that lovely necklace. The great necklace is also part of the whole outfit. The top is armless and has an amazing deep neckline that shows of the wonderful well-shaped cleavage. The skirt starts with an opaque part and goes down becoming more and more transparent.

‘The short version has the same great attributes as the long one, just the skirt ends after the awesome opaque part. The textures are amazingly detailed and in the front of the top you can see a sweet detailed zipper that decorates the top from the beginning, down to the belly. The great hair that I am wearing for this outfit is called “Era” and it is one of the new fantastic hair attachments of PurpleMoon. Poulet Koenkamp also created to every color the matching hair base what skips a lot of trouble finding the right color for the hair itself!

The hair attachments are available in 20 (!!!) different colors with 20 (!!!) hair bases also. Unbelievable but true! To cover all the wonderful colors I gave for every hairstyle a few colors naming them on the picture. “Era” is an avantgardistic hairstyle that totally turns head with its extraordinary shape.

“Cat” is a great non usual updo, that again shows off the great designer skills and ideas of Poulet Koenkamp, designer of PurpleMoon. A sweet unusual knot at the back of the head carries a little neat curved ponytail.

For the ones that like the longer hairstyles more PurpleMoon offers the “Mia” ponytail. A long ponytail that amazingly flexible moves with every step you take, hold by a sweet little knot at the back of your head.

A very smart and neat hairstyle you can have with the “Sun” hair attachment. 2 rows of circled hair behind each other. The second row shows of neat wisps and leads over to the tiny ponytail in the back.

Last but not least we have a wonderful elegant up do with “Ana”. Ana is a perfect addition to every ballgown or dress and it adds automatically the sophisticated and elegant note! This hairstyles are a totally must have for the modern and style loving fashionista. With all the colors I am sure you will find the perfect one for you anyways wich hairstyle 😉 The new hair is available in different color packs like “Blondes”, “Reds”, “Brunettes” and “Black & White” with five shades in each of them. Also, a fatpack with the 20 shades is available as well. All the packs include the matching hairbases. Keep in mind, that these tattoo layers will work on SL viewer 2 and compatible viewers.

by

(Outfits: Sweater: Maven Strasse – “Bulwark” sweater, Leggings: Maven Haus, Models: Wicca Merlin & Elaera Maven, Photographer: Adien Arun, Infamous Robot Studios)

Elaera Maven, genius designer of Maven Haus created a side label for his Prêt-à-Porter clothing – Maven Strasse!!!

Maven Strasse will be the name for the more ‘casual’ clothing of Elaera Maven. But it would not be Elaera if this just would be another usually casual wear… way not. He creates very fashionable and chic designs for the modern fashionistas everyday life. For example the great “Bulwark” sweater. I was very happy as he IMed me asking me, if I would pose for this amazing sweater! The “Bulwark” is a great start in a new casual era where you do not have to miss a very modern and fresh style that still is in a high fashion way.

The basic of this great top is a t-shirt layer that is combined with 4 amazing sculpted prims. The huge neck collar, 2 wrist cuffs and the amazing bottom that falls down your upper body like a neat bell, tight at the beginning and very wide and comfy at the bottom. With a very good eye for the detail the wool textures where fitted on the prims. Every part is connected perfect without a texture break to each other! The huge collar is made of 2 parts linked together, an inner one a bit higher and an outer one.

The wonderful “Bulwark” sweater is available in 8 fantastic colors – white, yellow, fuchsia, navy, green, gray, red and teal. It seems with this sweater a great start is made for a very interesting new part of the creations of Elaera Maven! Keep your eyes open and if you take a look at Maven House do not forget to peek for new designs under the name Maven Strasse 😉

Playfully fashion news by Angel Dessous :)

by

“Juliette” is one of the latest releases of Angel Dessous. It is a wonderful and stylish dress with a very neat and playfully touch 😉

It comes in many different colors and for this post I chose the pink and lime version. The whole dress really shows off a very sweet way of fashion with the huge ruffles and the laced parts. What for sure underlines that is the lovely polkadots texture that goes all over that dress.

A totally eyecatcher are the great big flower and the beautiful hat that repeats the texture and theme of the dress carrying a few filigree and flexible black feathers. Overall it gets a light french touch if we think on the beautiful can can era, with the part of the skirt in the front. The huge ruffles in the back and the amazing primskirt are made if sculpted prims what gives it a wonderful realistic look.  Also the neat tight highs are part of the outfit. The black lace is decorated also with tiny sweet and opaque black dots. Again Nando Korbase created a wonderful sweet little piece of art that you can find in 3 more colors at the Angel Dessous Mainstore.

Finesmith opens a new era of jewelry and accessories!

by

Yula Finesmith dared something new for the idea of jewelry and accessories. The new “FlaSH” line that she created goes a very new and yet seen way. Usually if you have jewelry it is made to look most realistic. Yula Finesmith follows the possibilities you have in Second Life to attach prims where ever you like. In RL you need a piercer to have jewelry attached to your body like earrings or belly rings..not all parts of the body are made for such ;). In SL you can attach prims where ever you want and follow your creativity and ideas like you want… you just have to dare! This can be the great start or an amazing fashion trend… you just have to find out if you like it… I LOVE IT!!!

First lets take a look at the new “Acupuncture” Set of Finesmith. You have no chains and no little wholes in your ears where the jewelry is connected to. Just long acupuncture needles that hold  noble metal frames with amazing black gems in it! The needles just stick in the side of your head or the velvet flesh of your chest… the thought maybe painful but the look is awesome!

The second set our of this new “FlaSH” collection is called “Victorian Secret”. There you have huge tubes that are simply plugged in your ears and carry amazing tear drops that hanging down on long filigree lines. Little copper spherules decorate the basic silver-white set perfect. The ‘necklace’ if you can call it like that is also just a huge tube that carries also this incredible looking teardrop. On the top part you have also those filigree lines that go to every side carrying those tear drops decorated again with the little copper spherules. There the term “Who wants to be pretty has to suffer” gets a whole new meaning 😉

The last set for today has the gret name “Deco Set” and it really means it 😉 A combination of copper and blue dominate this beautiful set. Technically in RL it would be very hard to realize as the earrings just pierced in the sie of the head and the fantastic necklace just was pinned into the cleavage. But SL gives us the possibility… ‘Fashion is Art’ I heard a lot of people saying and Yula Finesmith, genius designer of Finesmith made it come true. For me a new era of jewelry in SL. Thanks a lot for daring Yula!

Dojo – Papercouture… How sexy paper can be ;)

by

(Outfit: dojo – “Primerette”, Model: Wicca Merlin, Photographer: Helenna Baxton)

Again Sanders Beaumont shows how sexy and stylish paper can be.

The outfit is combined of tight pants with the paper optic and a great futuristic looking belly free top. For the top we have a long sleeve layer part and a great prim attachment that carries the huge shoulder parts. If you want you also can wear the chopsticks that are also included as a great hair decoration. Also part of the outfit are the amazing booties that are made in kinda Alexander McQueen style with the big front part that let you walk nearly on the toe tips and the high small heel in the back. Also the shoes are decorated with amazing details and the whole outfit again shows the great skills if it comes to the unique textures.

For the second outfit of this blog post I chose one of the new dresses -“Paulette”

“Paulette”, a short sexy dress all made of paper 😉 The skirt starts very tight and at the bottom it opens like a up-side-down tulip 😉 Matching to the dress Sanders added a huge hat. Hat and dress both are decorated with a filigree black ribbon.

To cover the chest we have a great black prim attachment with an amazing collar at the upper end.

This outfit comes with the same great booties as the “Primerette” I had as my first outfit in this post. This are only 2 of the newer dojo outfit and there is one very special with an amazing effect that I will showcase I my next dojo blog post… so stay tuned 😉
