(Outfit: Maven Haus – “Gefahr”, Pose: Body Talking, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

Today I have the great pleasure to show you one of the very new Maven Haus designs named “Gefahr”. “Gefahr” in english means danger and that brought me on the sweet ideas with the wild cats πŸ˜‰ Maven Haus is now back with a new collection that is in progress and released already a few amazing earrings and jewelry parts that I will show as soon as I can. For today I would like to focus on the new dress first as I really love it πŸ™‚ The dress has clothing layers as well what make a very smooth look with the huge prim that makes the neck collar. The dress it self has a fur made texture ( I am sure no animal dies for that I know Elaera he never could do that! ;)) The grey is broken by an amazing little black belt.

For sure the huge neck collar is a total eye catcher and for me it makes a great and amazing highlight for the dress itself! You really should make your way to the Maven Haus Store, located at maritima to see all the new and fantastic releases. As I said you as well will find new jewelry that I will show you in one of my next posts as well πŸ˜‰

Shoe Mania at Mea Culpa – Part II!!!

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Matrix”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

As I promised… here is the second part of the last Mea Culpa shoe mania! Tatanka Kaligawa increased our ladies shoe paradise with new designs and ideas all around our feet πŸ˜‰

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Matrix”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The “Matrix” shoes captivate with their great and unusual heels. High heels with an amazing metal part that connects the heel to the sole. The basic shoe is made with a simple but amazing detailed texture and neat details. Wonderful sculpted toes with colorable nails in every color with the HUD that comes with, tiny little lines that connect the 2 big fabric parts that cover the foot with that amazing folds that make the whole shoe very realistic. You can change the main color to all colors you want with the big color matching field as well as you can match the skin of the foot itself to match yours.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Overdose”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

Elegant and extravagant? No problem with the “Overdose” shoes. Very filigree the mixture of lace and opaque texture goes over the whole foot. Sweet little accessories with a sharp character decorate the “little blacks” in an extraordinary way. If you want a special pair of shoes for your little black dress… the “Overdose” heels of Mea Culpa are the right choice.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Darkness”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

Or you go for the “Darkness” ones. Also great for every outfit but maybe a little bit more ‘sexy’ as the “Overdose”. The “Darkness” heels have a more opaque character and the shining black texture surrounds nearly the whole feet, just toes and back feet are free for the typical sexy high heel look. The white ornaments give an awesome touch to the whole design.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Zen”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

Now we step on the asia path with the “Zen” shoes. The sweet golden dragon on the wooden heels give a cute basic for the perfect asian look. The ornaments on the fabric add even more asian feeling.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Zen”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

With the HUD you can match your skin, and color the nails in all colors you can think on with the big color field. Also the HUD has 5 pre-made colors for the basic texture as you can see in the pics above.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Vamp”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

“Vamp” is the playful one in this post. Fully made of lace you feet are totally covered except the toes and the back feet.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Vamp”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

Little silver ornaments decorate the shoes at the ankle and the sides. The heel itself has an amazing texture too. Another silver line that goes left and right down the feet. The main color can be changed with the usual color field of the HUD as well as the toe nails.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Joker”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The last pair for today are the “Joker” ones. The main color is always parted in white and one of the 6 colors (black, red, blue, green, purple, gold & grey)

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Joker”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

A very cool feature you have on the back of the heel… the line that goes down the heel can be colored in every color you can think with the HUD as well as the nails and the skin.

(Shoe: Mea Culpa – “Joker”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

There we are at the end of the second part of the latest shoe mania of Mea Culpa… but I already heared Tatanka talk about new shoe designs… so stay tuned πŸ˜‰

Shoes, Shoes, Shoes ;) Mea Culpa again released new ones!!!

Again Tatanka Kaligawa, designer of Mea Culpa shows us he awesome ideas and skills of designing with giving us ladies extraordinary shoes πŸ˜‰ For today I chose a few of the new line… it will be not the last post.Β  The first pair of shoes I would like to show you is called “Blade”.

This ankle boots are really another piece of art of Mea Culpa. Amazing ankle boots with a lot of great options to fit every clothing and color you want it to wear to. You can change the basic color of the booties to 8 colors (blue, red, black, grey, green, pink, purple and teal) That makes it possible to cover nearly every needs. For the strings you have the great possibilities to change it to every color you want. The HUD as always comes with a big color field where you can choose every color you can think of. The great heels looking like spikey flashes make this ankle boots turn heads where ever you go πŸ˜‰

With “Player” we have another kinda ankle boots but with peep toes and an open back feet. Very sexy indeed those pair of shoes also changes the main color for the little squares and also for the outside flowers!!!

The squared part always keeps the white squares and you can change the colored ones to black , red, pink purple or blue. The nail colors can be changed via the HUD to every color you desire also the outside flowers! Even Huey Lewis & the News had know about the fact “It is hip to be square!” back in the 80’s πŸ˜‰

“Mailindi” points with its sexy animal prints. The HUD allows you to change the texture between those wonderful 4 different animal prints. The wooden looking great block heel gives the shoes a wonderful and sexy overall look that not looks like “usual” With the HUD you also can match your bare foot perfectly to you r skin. All the sweet little details like the buckles above the toes and the sweet strings that hang down from your ankle really make this heels to something special!

Dark, tempting and sexy the “Crow” heels appear. A fantastic black high heel, open in front and back with awesome silver decorations.

As always you can change the nail color with the HUD to every color you can imagine as there are no ready mae presets. The HUD works with a big color field where you can get every color from. The lovely detailed decoration on the show and on the heels show off the great skills of Tatanka Kaligawa if it comes to ideas and design!

Last but not least for today we have the “Eruption” heels. A wonderful black pair of very high heels with the extraordinary look that makes you turn heads. Again you can change the color of the nails with the HUD to every color and also match the barefoot to your skin. The toes and the back feet peek beautiful off the basic black fabric that surrounds your feet. The sole and the heel itself are again something special. The plateau sole adds a part of glam and the filigree heel also make as an extraordinary decoration for the “Eruptions”.

This is just the first post about the new Mea Culpa shoes and be sure part 2 follows soon πŸ˜‰

Divinity opens the New Mainstore with an amazing event and lots of new designs!!!

(Picture provided by Noah Bodenhall, Photographer: Mikael Charisma)

Tomorrow is the day of the day for Noah Bodenhall, fabulous designer of Divinity. The Divinity Mainstore got a makeover and appears now in a fantastic light πŸ™‚

The huge store will let every ladies heart higher… you have enough space for a relaxed shopping trip. The whole store is made with an eye for the detail and very realistic looking.

If you enter the store to the left hand side you will find that great ‘reception’ that provides you all information you need and for tomorrows opening there is also places a wonderful free gift that you should not miss!!!

To the right hand side you have a neat lounge where you can sit down and let the whole store impress you. Also that seems the corner for the custom work section as I saw a special office table there where you can discuss your very personal likes and needs.

What really caught my eyes are the wonderful displays where you can see what you buy. The items are showcased in wonderful glass cabinets with beautiful lightning and behind every display you have a wonderful pic that shows a possibility to wear this amazing jewelry.

But lets take a closer look on a few of the wonderful designs of Noah Bodenhall, designer of Divinity.

Did thieves ever look so sexy? πŸ˜‰ Just kidding. I was tempted by this amazing chain set calles “Pythagore” This set is a totally new creation that was made in 3 different tones. Gold, silver and a smoked silver version.

For the necklace you have the option of a long or a short one, so you can wear it simply to all and everything. This filigree chain parts take wonderful in each other and show off how sexy and elegant simple chains can be if they are made with such a great eye for the detail and a wonderful skill for textures!

The eye for the detail you also can see in the back of the neck where Noah Bodenhall closes nearly all his chains with the fleur de lys, a nice again very detailed trade mark that he chose for his brand Divinity!

The “Moon & Stars” necklaces representing the theme of the opening day, and new image of Divinity. A long necklace that goes down to the belly with an amazing twisted chain that carry this wonderful moon, star and gem spherule.

You can choose from different colors of the little gem that connects the tar and the moon. This necklace is a wonderful accessory for every look anyways of casual or elegant!

Up next we come to the wonderful “Panther” Set. This set was totally revamped completely from the original. It comes also in 3 different noble metals.

Again we have the option to choose between gold, silver and smoked silver. The smoked silver is lightly darker than the normal silver and is a nice variation for different outfits!

But not only full sets are provided… even the little parts have their own spotlight!

For example the beautiful “Bubbles” rings. So neat and detailed and an awesome firework of great colors!

The last creation for today is the wonderful “Charmes” set that was totally overworked from a to z πŸ˜‰ What caught my yes are all the little parts that are connected in different colors of noble metals like the little shoe, the tiny little horseshoes that again show off the love for the detail of Noah Bodenhall!

For the opening they will have a huge event from 9AM to 9PM on sunday the 7th of november. The program you can read on the texture above.. and I know that I will definitely make my way to the new Divinity Mainstore to be part of that great happening!!!

Autumn comes… we are prepared ;)

(Outfits: LeeZu – “BonVoyage” male & female version, Models: Wicca Merlin & Harsch Sharktooth, Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The days getting shorter, colder and less colorful. But also darker and fewer colors can be very fashionable πŸ˜‰ For example the “Bon Voyage”Β  outfit from LeeZu. Part of the NOIR series this outfit comes in a male and a female version.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” male version, Model & Photographer: Harsch Sharktooth)

For the male version I am happy that Harsch Sharktooth agreed to help me for that part πŸ™‚ Thanks a lot for your pics, time and patience Harsch!

“BonVoyage” for males is a great black opaque body suit. The basic black texture that we can see for the pants also is repeated in the combination of awesome textures.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” male version, Model & Photographer: Harsch Sharktooth)

Basically it looks like a simple bodysuit, but if you take a closer look and look at the prim attachments you will realize the amazing design ideas and skills with wich LeeZu can make every outfit to something special.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” female version, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The big legs sleeves, hand attachments, elbow attachments and the huge shoulder parts. All created with a fantastic eye for details and wonderful skills for creations and design! The female version is not a fully opaque body suit… it has this sexy laced parts at the top. The private parts are perfectly covered and still you can show a lot of stunning lace covered skin what accents your shape even more πŸ˜‰

Overall a perfect outfit for the actual season anyways if male or female… with the “BonVoyage” you are perfectly dressed if you take care of your style πŸ˜‰

Dojo – Papercouture… How sexy paper can be ;)

(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 πŸ˜‰ The skirt starts very tight and at the bottom it opens like a up-side-down tulip πŸ˜‰ 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 πŸ˜‰

16 poses plus one walk per ‘tab’ also make it easy to combine your own choreographie for every single walk you have for a show.

Wicca’s Wardrobe – Monday and I again feel the Blues ;)

Monday and the work is back… sweet memories of the weekend start to fade and the everyday life comes back… So what to wear on a cloudy monday autumn day?Β  With my LeeZu addiction… yes I know all of you know that already ;)… for sure it was a new mix and match of things I like for longer and the latest releases by LeeZu πŸ˜‰

So for the top I chose the “Mailiin” blouse in grayolive. A short-armed blouse with awesome ruffles in the front πŸ™‚ The top is hold by 2 thin lined also bound to a ruffle in the neck and a nother sweet line on the back make sure that the top does not give any peeks on parts you do not want πŸ˜‰ For the pants I took the new “Madison” pants in rust. Perfect match in autumn colors… πŸ˜‰ For the shoes I took out the great and very comfy “Armada” boots from Kookie. With the warmers on the ankles a perfect match for the season too πŸ™‚

For the accessories and jewelry I put on the “Africa” set in bronze combined with the matching bangles from YS & YS. The hairstyle “Krea Updo”Β  and the hair base are made by Miamai and the amazing skin comes out of the feather of Emilia Redgrave, owner and designer of Redgrave πŸ˜‰

The first 3 pics I did by myself and for my last one I want to say a big thank you to Helenna Baxton. She captured an amazing head shot of me that I do not wanna miss to bring in here πŸ™‚ Thanks a lot Helenna for your time and effort!

I hope you enjoyed my little monday blues post πŸ˜‰

Stay styled,

Wicca

Casual City Chick by Nemesis!!!

Today I have a new label on my blog. Nemesis – a beautiful casual and chick label owned by Calypso Clip. For today I combined different parts to a neat city fashion outfit.

Lets start with the top. the “Illegal Tank” here in black is a perfect basic for that sexy outfit. It has a deep neckline and it is hold by a slim line in the back of the neck. What caught my eye was the decoration on the upper back that goes from the neck to the beginning of the tops fabric. 5 big rings that hold the top in place in the back..simply wonderful and a neat little detail that makes a top like this to something special. That Nemesis has defiantly an eye for the detail you also can see at the awesome high waist pants called “Robot High Waisted Shorts”. The buttons are attached with tiny prims on a spot that you can imagine the shadow of the buttons on the pants itself as the shadow is painted to the layer of the pants… another detail that shows how much Calypso Clip counts on realistic details. Perfectly matching in color and style are the “Wrath Bangles” in gold. All 2 parts of the outfit you will find in more colors than just the ones that I have shows in this blog πŸ˜‰ If you are curious wich ones…make your way to the Nemesis Mainstore and take a look for yourself you will see it is worth it πŸ˜‰ Also you will find the new Nemesis Collection called “Casino”… so don’t wait too long πŸ˜‰

A temptation in red made by PurpleMoon ;)

A wonderful combination to show the awesome skills of Poulet Koenkamp is the “Serafina” gown in ruby that perfectly can be combines with the “Rie” hairstyle in ebony also made by PurpleMoon. PurpleMoon for me always was standing for elegance, high-class fashion and a wonderful love to every little detail. The “Serafina” gown shows that too. Take a look at all the single parts…the orchids, the wonderful way the skirt is done with its light open front that gives a beautiful view on the “under skirt that ends in a beautiful lace seam! The hair as it would be made for such elegant and sophisticated gowns!

“Rie” is a very clean and straight hairstyle. Asymmetric but very elegant. On the left side it goes a little higher than on the right what gives a very interesting touch that turns heads as you look at it a minimum of twice to realize what you saw πŸ˜‰

“Serafina” has 2 different options for the neck collar one with and one without the great orchid… I had to wear it with the orchid as I really like this detail a lot! πŸ™‚ On this picture you also can see the seamed lace on the bottom of the skirt in the front I was mentioning before πŸ˜‰ and for sure those incredible flowers in a better and closer view πŸ˜‰ The top is very sexy with the 2 lines that go together in the back in that great neck collar and the very deep neckline that goes down in the front to the belly where it ends in the amazing black belt that starts the lower part of the gown. “Serafina” is a very fanciful creation and you will be the center of every party πŸ˜‰

If you wanna see more of the extraordinary creations and I only can recommend you that… make your way to the PurpleMoon Mainstore!!!
