Wicca’s Wardrobe: LOTD 12/26/2012 – Asian Touch

LeeZu - Half

One of LeeZu‘s latest releases is a wonderful mesh combination of a dress and boots and as well the popular “Nif Nif” gloves are now available in mesh.

The new “Kaya Gown” is a wonderful mixture of a long and short dress to the same time. For the left leg you have a huge slit that shows off the whole sexy leg and on the right side the skirt goes down to the ankle.

LeeZu - Full

The “Kaya Gown” comes in many different colors and I chose the black version for this post, because I liked the combination of black, red and the golden ornaments so much. The super sexy overknee boots repeat the golden ornaments on the leg and as well at the heels!

LeeZu - Shoes

The inner of the skit brings back the red color that we see under the chest. Even the upper end of the boots carry the same color and little buckle that we saw on the gown under the chest. The “Nif Nif” gloves make a wonderful shape for the hands. The option to have hands and feet made with mesh adds a lot mor possibilities for the creators and as well makes them so much more realistic πŸ™‚ To finish my asian touch idea, I chose the “Warrior” hair from epoque with the 2 crossed sticks behind the bun. The huge necklace from Swallowtail I have for a very long time and by searching for an appropriate one it fell into my hands again πŸ˜‰

To see more of the latest LeeZu releases you can takeΒ  a look at the LeeZu Mainstore and see for yourself πŸ˜‰

Etchaflech & Voluptia featured in the Maniera Magazine

ManieraModels_CorsetFeature_LovelyMiwako7399 Menna_December12_Lineup_v3

For the actual Maniera Magazine December 2012 (http://manierasl.mymaniera.com/) I had the great honor to be featured in a wonderful fashion spread of Lovely Miwako. She made a special corset themed article about how different corsets can look.

We all got sent different corsets from Etchaflesh and Voluptia and Lovely asked us to style them in a vintage non typical lingerie manner. As well she wanted us all to choose one tattoo that we wear through the whole spread.

For the first picture Lovely placed me on the floor besides SterlingZen. The corset I was wearing for this picture came from Voluptia and everyone that knows me… I am a corset addicted even in RL, so to style the corset in a non lingerie way for me was like if you tell me I just won in a lottery *grins*

I love a lot the different vontage stylings from the 50’s to the 80’s ( it still scares me that 80’s are called vintage now too^^) and so I was going for my favourite urban look as well with the heavy boots and the tattoos and some fishnet stockings and torned stockings. The huge glasses and the pinup hair added the perfect finish for the look in my view.

On this picture, I had the great pleaure to be with Katherine Comet a wonderful and classy Lady that shines at my side with a wonderful corset styling that reminded me a lot on the old racing pinups I saw so many times on that collectable retro/vintage, metal signs from coke or even others… not sure how they are called in english, mostly you find them in bars πŸ™‚

For the second look I was given the corset and the sneaker boots from Etchaflech. I added the neck corset as well from Etchaflesh, pantys and garterbelt from Maitreya.

Lovely did an amazing job in putting different ladies, diffrent looks and attitudes together to show a wide range of what corsets can do… weither of elgant, grunge, rocker, lingerie, vintage or burlesque… as different as we ladies are as different corsets can be used for anykind of styling, that you can think of πŸ™‚

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Today at LeeZu 10/16/2012

Today I again had my LeeZu shift and I decided to go for something that matched the weather outside ;). The days are getting shorter and colder – Autumn is coming fast :).

One of the latest releases of LeeZu was the “Her Day Blouse”. A wonderful mesh blouse with so many amazing details on it.

If you take a closer look you can see the beautiful scarf and the wonderful open pocket on the left side of the chest. The texture again shows the amazing and incredible skills of LeeZu Baxter and her genius ideas for designs. The blouse for me is kinda loose-fitting, cool casual style and as it was long enough, I did not need extra pants and wanted to go with the chic “Cat Tights” as well from LeeZu. To make the perfect autumn look I used another one of LeeZu’s latest releases, the “Piccadilly Overknee Boots”. To see all the amazing new releases of LeeZu for the actual season and many evergreens, make your way to the LeeZu Mainstore. It is really worth it, particularly as LeeZu has a summer end sale and some special items are set 50 % off the regular prize!!!

Pret-a-Porter Couture at Egoisme!!!

Lately Ramses Meredith, owner and designer of Egoisme, ran into my IMs. I love the way he approaches me every time we talk, as he comes on his point very fast πŸ˜‰ He told me about a new direction for Egoisme and that he would like to move more and more towards couture… Pret-a-Porter and Haute Couture. For the Pret-a-Porter he takes a lot of inspiration from the realife fashion catwalks and with the new possibility of mesh he made some amazing creations. For the Haute Couture direction he as well has his plans but that I will bring on a nother blog post.

For today the focus is on the first of 3 creations of his new ‘Pret-a-Porter Women Couture’ line. The “Lolita” dress comes with matching boots in different colors. For my post I chose the beige version. The dress and the boots are made with mesh and so you have an amazing movement for every step and motion you do. The mesh boots have no weird unnatural parts at the knees anymore and the dress just fits perfect, even from the past SL times :P. The ‘Pret-a-Porter Woman Couture’ line from Egoisme starts off with aΒ  cute and fresh summer look in a casual, but still chic style. So the new outfits are all inspired by european styles as far as I was told and the are still even if they are casual, have a lot of elegance, luxury and it will be all outfits you can wear more than just once on a special event. As I said the “Lolita” dress is only one of 3 outfits I got so far and so you can look forward to more awesome news of the new Egoisme ‘Pret-a-Porter Women Couture’ line in the near future on my blog for sure πŸ™‚

Black, White & Red – Square Fantasys with SoliDea FoliEs!

Part of the Spring Collection 2012 of SoliDea FoliEs are the “Optical Dresses & Hats”. There are 3 different versions in color and texture for this amazing new dress. For today I chose the ‘Square’ version of the amazing outfit.

The hat looks like one of the asian ‘Koi’ fishes and it is a very extravagant hat. I always loved how Mila Tatham, owner and genius designer of SoliDea FoliEs took unusual ideas and made them fashionable πŸ™‚ The short dress is perfect for the upcoming spring season and I really like how carefully the red color is brought in with just the few little red balls and at the hat. I have an addiction for black and white and for squares for a long time – yes I am a child of the 80’s :p. So this dress really got my attention even if the 2 other colors are amazing as well.

To catch the red color again I took the new “Play Cubes” earrings from Finesmith. The square shape totally made it to the dress for me πŸ™‚

Too keep the look in a modern way I added one of the latest releases from Urban Lutz for the hair.

To see all of the amazing colors of the “Optical Dress & Hat” and the “Play Cubes” you better take a look by yourself at the SoliDea Folies and Finesmith Mainstores πŸ™‚

Mesh News at E-Clipse!

A few days ago, Thetra Blackheart, owner and designer of E-Clipse, went into my IMs and told me she had a new outfit ready that might be my groove and she asked me if I maybe could do some pics of it for her. I was very curious about her newest designs because I always liked her fresh and modern style and ideas. I went home and unpacked the box she sent me and I got big eyes. She created a wonderful new mesh dress with matching overknee boots in 4 great, different colors and all made with the new mesh technique.

I tried to style in different types to show the wide range you can wear this amazing new “Triste” dress of E-Clipse. With all the colors and the different styling possibilities the “Triste” dress already is worth the trip to the E-Clipse Mainstore and you can see what else Thetra has new there πŸ˜‰

Awesome new Lashes at Finesmith paired with Fluke poses ;)

One of the latest awesome releases at Finesmith were 4 new amazing lashes styles!!! We all know the black cool lashes yula Finsmith did for the “Noir” collection. Now she followed that great way of designing lashes with 4 more styles.

This incredible new Finesmith lashes are really a must have for everybody that likes an extravagant styling. Totally in black they always have a wonderful diamond part where they start from.

To make this awesome styling complete I added one of my long time favourites of Finesmith – the “Victorian Secret” set. This awesome set was one of the first sets that took my attention to yula Finesmith’s creations, as it was the first set where the jewelry was just ‘pinned’ on the body, like the necklace that goes right into the chest ;). The whole set is menu driven and you can change metals, colors and gems to make it match anyways what you wanna wear it to.

The awesome lace part, that goes up from the neck over the lips is one part of the “Lucia” lingerie from Glam Affair and as well a piece that I really like for a long time as well πŸ™‚ So what could fit better to this styling then the “Diva Poses” made by GM Nikolaidis, owner and designer of Fluke. I really love the poses as they are somewhat fresh and modern and dare to be different and out of the box, for me the “Diva Poses” have a wonderful dramatic touch as well πŸ™‚
