Flight of Fancy into the Darkness

At the moment I am trying to learn new PS tricks and techniques. I discovered my likings for dark background pictures with a very simple set and more extra ordinary poses, so that the focus is more on the person and the items that are being showcased.

When I started to work with black backgrounds, usually they looked kinda flat and I was wondering how you can still have the imagination of a room even if it is all dark. But som subtile lights which are not even really noticeable, will do the trick I read. The shadows on the avatar will as well help with that if you have something throwing shadows on your avatar that you, that you not really see. There are so many more things like reflections and what not, that I still try to learn properly before I am coming up with picture :p

Today it would be The amazing lingerie from Blacklace, the super sexy high heels from Glamistry and the adorable and incredible jewelry from EarthStones, which I would like to showcase.

I had the great pleasure to take a photo of Abraxxa Anatine, designer and owner of EarthStones, for the last issue of the Spotlight magazine. Abraxxa is such a wonderful and lovely person and her creativity has no limits. While we were shooting she was wearing one of her latest releases, the “Flight of Fancy” jewelry set.

When I saw it, I immediately fell in love with it. It was made for the last round of TLC but I am sure it will be in her main store now.

The set contains a pair of earrings, 2 bracelets as well as a short and along necklace. The details on this set are incredible. With the butterflies and the little studs and gems and all the filigree chain links… just amazing. The Set as well is HUD driven so you can customize the colors to your personal likings and your look.

For the shoes, I decided to go with the latest release of Glamistry. The “Lilium” heels are a pair of super sexy pumps. I love the high plateau heel on them and as well the simplicity. With that you can see the wonderful leather texture if the shoes and as well the great details like the seam.

The super cool nail polish was made by ChloeElectra for her brand .alme. I love the golden geometric lines that run over the colored nail πŸ™‚ and with the color they matched amazing to the jewelry and the lingerie!

The lingerie is not just an applier! This time Blacklace came out with a wonderful negligee made of mesh with a sexy transparency.Β  The panties and the garters are made of mesh as well, only the stockings are mesh body appliers. “Kelsey” you can purchase in many different colors as always with Blacklace designs πŸ™‚

The sofa I used was made by Katink. originally it comes with some poses, but for this post I just used various other poses and adjusted them to the sofa πŸ™‚

Blacklace - Vivian 1

Again I had a lot of fun by playing with lingerie πŸ˜‰

Blacklace came out with some stunning news a few ago and today I would like to showcase the new “Vivian” lingerie from Blacklace. It comes in many different colors (always 2 in once pack), but I chose the nude/black version for today. I loved how the innocent nude fabrics going along so well with the delicate lace…

Blacklace - Vivian 3

I really do love the way how the applier lingerie works on the Slink mesh body. It has not a single blurry spot, everything is sharp and detailed shown, you nearly get the impression you can feel the lace under your fingers touching the screen :p

What could fit better to such a wonderful lingerie than beautiful pearls. The wonderful necklace with the incredible back view comes from AvaWay. The “Emmanuelle” necklace can be worn as a complete set or as 6 separate parts. For this post I chose the full set of the necklace. The bracelet I took from the “Taylor” set by Lybra and the super awesome ring was made by Tracei Moore.

Lingerie should never be over-accessorized in my opinion, so I decided to just add the fantastic “Galla” pumps from Glamistry to complete the look.

Blacklace - Vivian 6

The awesome deco and furniture for the scene, besides the wonderful mannequins, I found at the actual round of On9. I kinda wanted something industrial, used looking for my set today to put out the fantastic lingerie even more πŸ™‚

You may have noticed, a new head on my shoulders… I am testing again, but that will be a new post soon πŸ˜‰

Spring is coming with floral News :)

SoliDea FoliEs lately released so many amazing new outfits that I only hardly can keep up posting them all, but I am still trying :p

For today I have the “White Orchid” as the first outfit. The whole dress really shouts spring time with all the wonderful flowers that decorate the head-piece and the chest part of the dress.

To add the aerial touch for the perfect spring mood Mila Tatham, owner and designer of SoliDea FoliEs, added some wonderful flexible long lines that kinda flow around you while you walk. For the “Wild Orchid”, that you can see on the picture above you have the same great attributes as for the “White Orchid” but the color was changed to pink, purple and teal, an amazing color combination for spring colors.

The “Cirpis” in chocolate as well is one of the latest releases by SoliDea FoliEs. For the headpiece again we have this wonderful orchids that seem to be part of the Spring Collection 2012 of SoliDea FoliEs πŸ˜‰ I really like the floral parts to welcome the spring time. The color, a mixture of rose and brown tones really makes this dress to a highlight.

There still is more new releases at SoliDea FoliEs that I will have in the next days showcased, but if you cannot wait you can hop over to the SoliDea FoliEs Mainstore and take a look for yourself πŸ™‚

New Shoes from Stiletto Moody!!!

(Shoes: Stiletto Moody – “Zaha” /taupe, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

We all waited for and now they are out! 3 new styles of Stiletto Moody shoes! An amazing new detail comes with… a HUD where you can color the bare foot. If you use the new Stiletto Moody skins you will find ready made presets to use for every skintone. For sure you can match any other skin tone as well πŸ™‚ The usual features like nails and toe rings in different styles as well as the hardware color change to silver gold or sometimes graphit are menu driven as always. But lets take a closer look at the new “Zaha” shoes.

(Shoes: Stiletto Moody – “Zaha”, Model & Phorographer: Wicca Merlin)

Also you can change the color of the shoes with the known menu in the shoes as always πŸ™‚ To give an overview, I tried to show all the amazing colors you get if you buy the fat pack. For sure you can as well buy the shoes in each color single if you are able to make a choice between all this amazing colors πŸ˜‰ The sole of the “Zaha” always stays wooden and the hell as well as the sole remain white with every color. The shoe itself looks like made of a fantastic fabric with a big ribbon on the outside of the ankle.

The second new pair of Stiletto Moody is called “Kahlo”

(Shoes: Stiletto Moody – “Kahlo” /red, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

In opposite to the “Zaha” the “Kahlo” style is very filigree made. All this little lines that hold your feet in place…simply amazing. As well as the other new releases the “Kahlo” heels come with the same great HUD to match your feet perfectly to your skintone. The usual features like nail color, toe rings in different styles, the hardware colorchange and the change for the main shoe color are available over the menu in the shoes as we already know it from Stiletto Moody.

(Shoes Stiletto Moody – “Kahlo”, Model & Photohgrapher: Wicca Merlin)

The fatpack contains all the amazing colors you can see up here but as usually you also can buy them single. As you can see the sole and the heel change color with the shoe itself. The awesome combination of light and shadow the great texture has again underlines the high quality Stiletto Moody offers!

Last but not least the “Kim” style. This style we already saw as a preview on the summers releases and I was so waiting for this one as it is looks very special πŸ˜‰

(Shoes: Stiletto Moody – “Kim” /black, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

“Kim” is an awesome every day style that also can make the highlight in a more classy outfit. The crossing straps make a wonderful look on your feet and let it look very elegant. For this style my personal highlight is the heel. You have no stiletto heel as for most of the high heels… the heel is connected all the way down with the rest of the shoe and looks more solid though.

(Shoes: Stiletto Moody – “Kim”, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The heel stays in a wooden color anyways wich shoe color you choose. The fatpack contains a lot of amazing colors as you can see on the upper picture. It has the same great featuresΒ  as the other 2 new releases and for me they areΒ  perfect jeans heels, even if you can wear them to nearly every outfit for sure πŸ˜‰

I hope you enjoy this new Stiletto Moody heels as much as I do and I could show you as much as possible on the pictures πŸ˜‰ If you wanna see them “real” just make your way to the Stiletto Moody Mainstore and take a look by yourself and get you your pair πŸ˜‰

News from PurpleMoon!!!

On the 15th of September it was again time for amazing news from PurpleMoon. Poulet Koenkamp released 2 new fantastic designs. Today I would like to show you one of them – “Elie” here in brown.

I could not resist to style this new dress lightly vintage. The shape of the skirt remembered me a bit of that even if the textures and the accessories are more modern. The skirt goes down to the knees opening more and more till the bottom seam. The light transparent textures let imagine a sweet petticoat under it πŸ˜‰ The top is a wonderful shoulder free corsage decorated with a black shape surrounding the upper body right below the chest, crossing in the front middle and end in a wonderful flower on the left shoulder. This brown and light green color of that dress makes lots of accessories possible as this color matches to a lot! If we take a closer look at the shoulder flower we again can see the love for the detail that Poulet Koenkamp has for her designs…

All the filigree parts of that flower and the wonderful white decorations make this to a total highlight for this dress. also the dress texture is not a simple plaid one.. if you look closer you will find a wonderful kinda brocade looking texture with lots of ornaments and little color shades. As I said in the beginning..this was not the only new release of PurpleMoon but this will be continued in another blog post πŸ˜‰ If you are curious already just hit the TP button to the PurpleMoon Mainstore and take a look for yourself πŸ˜‰
