Play Chess with Rfyre & EMO-tions!

by

Rfyre 01

Today I would like to showcase the contribution of Rfyre to the Month of Games event.

The amazing “No Ones Pawn” mesh dress comes with gloves, boots and the awesome detailed head-piece. The dress itself carries a chess textured fabric and with the garters, the longer back and the short front it has a very sexy look. The gloves come with a HUD that lets you chose from different hand positions

When I did the styling and the pics I was all to the Musical Chess listening to all that amazing songs. One is an old-time favourite from mine and I had it in a turnaround quite a few times while I edited the pics, so iI would like to share it with you 😉

The hair style was one of the releases of EMO-tions for the Hairfair 2014. The “Love War” hair actually comes with an amazing headpiece, wich I will showcase in another post soon. I just liked the hair with the one braid in between the loose open hair for that look.

In the musical it’s about a snobby, intellectual chess master who visits Bangkok, capital of Thailand, for a chess championship, but is looking down on everything else that goes on there, the sex tourism and stuff like that. And he has no other interest than the chess, lol. But the devil walking next to him line, might indicate that he also feels tempted while being there. But he needs to stay focussed to win the game.

Bangkok, Oriental setting
And the city don’t know that the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
Show with everything but Yul Brynner

Time flies – doesn’t seem a minute
Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
All change – don’t you know that when you
Play at this level there’s no ordinary venue

It’s Iceland – or the Philippines – or Hastings – or –
or this place!

One night in Bangkok and the world’s your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain’t free
You’ll find a god in every golden cloister
And if you’re lucky then the god’s a she
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

One town’s very like another
When your head’s down over your pieces, brother

It’s a drag, it’s a bore, it’s really such a pity
To be looking at the board, not looking at the city

Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town –

Tea, girls, warm, sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

Get Thai’d! You’re talking to a tourist
Whose every move’s among the purest
I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can’t be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

Siam’s gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
This grips me more than would a
Muddy old river or reclining Buddha

And thank God I’m only watching the game – controlling it –

I don’t see you guys rating
The kind of mate I’m contemplating
I’d let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use would not excite you

So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage
parlours –

One night in Bangkok and the world’s your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain’t free
You’ll find a god in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can’t be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

Asian Valentine? A Special Way to Celebrate a Special Day!

by

Rfyre Asian Valentine 001

Valentine is close and we all think about a special way to say thank you to people, who are special to us, people we love. We always think about something very special for our beloved ones to surprise them and show them how much we love them. RFyre comes out with 2 very special outfits for Valentine’s Day.

Why not surprise your boyfriend with a very special look?

The “Psyche Formal” dress with all the amazing asian textures and colors really makes a point in being special I guess 😉 . The body part is mesh made what totally accents the shape and for the leg parts you have a 2 part long, sheer skirt that covers the outside of the legs. The amazing overknee boots in red as well are part of the “Psyche Formal” dress. The huge, flexible back train gives the whole ensemble a very elegant touch. The neck and shoulders are decorated with an amazing high collar and originally you as well get an awesome red/golden collar.

Rfyre Asian Valentine 002

For the jewelry I decided to wear a special set from EMO-tions. Made for the Fantasy Gacha. The “Elbensoul” necklace and earrings in golden/black are one of the rare items of the EMO-tions gacha goodies. The filigree metals paired with the amazing black gemstones are just an amazing accessory for every elegant and special styling.

Rfyre Asian Valentine 003

For a bit later in the evening RFyre had an amazing idea as well in a lightly asian style. The playful looking “Psyche” outfit is the right choice for the time when you are back hom from a romantic dinner or event and just want to spend some private time. The sweet outfit is available in red and noir so whatever color you choose to seduce your boyfriend you will surprise him with a wonderful mesh corset, mesh bra and this awesome, cute panties with the ruffles at the back. The over knee boots and the amazing stockings wich are held by sexy garters as well are part of the outfit. For the bra you have 2 options to choose. Either you wanna go totally black like the corset, or with the sweet ornaments you can see on the pictures of my post.

With those 2 outfits I am ready for Valentine 🙂 Are you too?

Fantasy Faire 2013 – Rfyre & The Plastik + News from Finesmith

by

Fantasy Faire 2013 - Rfyre + Plastik full

From the 20th of April until the 28th of April you can find amazing creations various designers made for themes like fantasy, role play, steam-punk and Sci-Fi and all that is content of dreams at the SecondLife Fantasy Faire 2013.   Incredible builders created awesome sims for that event where you can make fantastic pictures or just explore and get caught away in your dreams and imagination.

The Fantasy Faire is one of the most huge events that take part in the RFL. RLF – Relay for Life – is a charity organisation that supports the American Cancer Society.

The whole event takes part on 10 sims. The are arranged in a nice way with a path that you can follow to explore all of them. On 8 you will find the creations that were made from all the designers to support the RLF. The last 2 sims are the event sims, where presentations, music events, concerts, auctions and silent auctions take place. To make it more interesting for visitors, a super amazing hunt is taking place where you can find many incredible little items.

Today I would like to take a closer look on the creations of Rfyre and The Plastik.

Rfyre created two wonderful full outfits for the Fantasy Faire and one I would like to spotlight today. The “Lux Fantasy” outfit is part wise made with mesh. The corset and parts of the arms sleeves are mesh made and the amazing bodice comes as a layer. The full outfit as well contains a long skirt, that’s open in the front, but for the post I just skipped that part, because for the aggressive running look I liked it more without the skirt ;). The amazing, cool looking boots with the detailed texture and the awesome buckles atthe side are part of the outfit.

As always Raven Pennyfeather, owner and designer of Rfyre, points with her amazing textures. She has such an eye for the detail and her creations mirror that. If you take a closer look at the textures you can see how filigree and perfect they are made and so she gives the gothic look a very elegant and high fashion touch. The chest part looks like silver plate decorations and give the whole outfit a very strong amazon looking touch. The wonderful chains that run over the cleavage again show how detailed Raven works for her designs. Her creativity seemd to never come to an end as she always comes with new ideas and combinations, that amaze me. It is always a honor to blog her creations :). The black silver look of this outfit really makes a wonderful base for realizing your own fantasies in many ways 🙂

The wonderful huge jewelry is one of the newest releases from Finesmith. The “Truth” set is available for male and female and it contains the necklace, earrings, shoulder parts and a bracelet. The male version just is a little bit bigger sized. The dark silver metal goes wonderful with the black gems and the long spikes already gave a very demon looking attitude and so it was perfect for this styling ;).

The hair is one of my favourite styles from EMO-tions. The “Solitude” hair has a very special option as you have two hairstyles in one that are to change with a menu. If you click it you are asked if you wanna have ‘Style A’ or ‘Style B’ and with a sweet gesture it changed the look after you made your choice. For the “Solitude” style as well one version has the forehead chain like in the post and the other shows without the chain.

The skin as well is a Fantasy Faire contribution and it comes from The Plastik. The “Arkasia” skin in the ‘Paua” color was the perfect addition to my demon style. As I told before in another post you have several options for each skin and color in the pack and this time I decided to go with the ‘bare’ version, that only has a scale framed face and some scales on the body. The “Bloodless Silver” eyes are as well from The Plastik and I had them in the skin folder as well. Together with the “Dark Shadow”, the “Smudgy Shadow” and the “Lip Stripe” that came together with the “Arkasia” too the demon look was perfect and I just added some wings from Material Squirrel.

To see more of the fantastic releases of the Fantasy Faire 2013 ( you might wanna look by yourself :) Always think on the fact that with every purchase you help! As well an amazing hunt just started at the Fantasy Faire… so hurry there and release the fantasy you carry inside you ;) (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Fairelands%20Junction/128/128/23)

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Cancion De La Muerte

 Devils Violin 001a

Cancion de la muerte

Nathaniel had just finished school and wanted to make a trip through Europe before he started university. When he was in Spain, he had dinner in a little bar when he packed for the night, the landlord warned him not to go to the nearby ruins after sunset.

As every young man, Nathaniel did not care for advise and thought the locals superstitious. His curiosity tickled, he thought he might just see them before going to the hostel. As he got there, he started to feel a bit uneasy. Then he heard the sweetest music.
He followed the tune and saw a little girl playing. First she ignored him, playing with her eyes shut, then she looked at him, turned round and went into the direction of the ruins.

He hesitated, but decided to follow the girl. When he entered the ruins he thought he heard moans and muffled screams, but he told himself silly. “When the little girl is not afraid, I should not be either,” he told himself. He looked at the girl again and suddenly he realized what was so weird about her, she was slightly translucent. His heart started racing and he was about to let pride be pride and run, when the girl spoke. “Help us! We cannot live or die because of the music.”

He looked round and saw a few ghosts lingering around, they all seemed unnaturally aged. They all looked at him pleadingly, Mustering all his courage, he asked how he could help. The girl said “Stop the music. Come!” She led him into a room in the ruins. There was a fire burning in the fireplace and someone was sitting on a chair. The little girl stopped playing but the music went on. She pointed at the person in the chair.

He slowly went round the chair and gasped in horror, there was a mummified old woman looking at the notes before her playing the violin. She had the same eyes as the girl and he knew her ghost led him to her body – or what was left of it. She played on and on. “Burn the notes,” said the little girl. He went around the chair, took the notes “Pierre’s Requiem” from the stand and threw them into the fire. Then all went very fast, the fire blazed up in a roar, the ghost of the girl was drawn into her corpse. Then there was a flash of light and the sound of thunder. Then, the music started again.

He saw the person in the chair had turned into a beautiful young woman, smiling at him while playing a different tune. He saw there were new notes on the stand and went to throw them into the fire, too. When he stretched out his hand he saw it was aging fast until he saw his own body crumbling into dust. The song was called “Nathaniel’s Requiem”. The last thing he heard was the woman’s chuckle playing his song.

Crazy Connection: Minimal Style with NYU

by

nyu-face

“The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to make you look like you’re ready to rock the world.”

— Alicia Keys

Sometimes you do not need much to express yourself. Simplicity can be the key as well 😉

Not too long ago, I only knew Dahriel by name, before Raven Pennyfeather, owner and designer of RFyre, brought us together 😉 We started to do pics together and more and more we discovered that we have a lot of things together depending on fashion style and even personality. Sometimes it is just scaring how close alike we think and act. For me it is not something that happened a lot, that you know a person for not too long and already feel you would have known this person for your whole life. I am very grateful that Raven played fate and introduced us to each other 😉

The more we worked on pictures, the more we both discovered that we would like to make more out of our ideas and just post together sometimes. We kind wanted to have a project together.  We both are busy bees, Dahriel with his pose store *PosESioN* and me with blogging teaching and modeling but still we wanted to use the little free time to make something together. As we were asked for doing a column for a magazine, the “Crazy Connection” was born.

We both like the non usual and the different view on things, as well we like to have fun and be creative and we both felt kinda connected to each other, so the name was just perfect 😉

Today we wanted to make something special with a minimal style. What could fit better to start with as the wonderful creations of Nyunyu Kimono, owner and designer of NYU – Minimalistic High Fashion Couture. Dahriel picked the “Cropped Jumpsuit” and the “Tux Loafers” from NYU while I decided to go with the “Cotton Dress” with the “Cotton Cuffs” and the “Collared Bow Heels”.

Dahriel had the idea to use one of the cool buildings from Ewan Crumb for the scenery and he made the 2 poses we are using… I am sure that he will soon sell them at *PosESioN* 😉

For the skins we wanted something very pale that goes with the white stylings and Dahriel decided to wear one of his favourite skins from Fruk, while I used one of the new skins by Silken Moon. The blindfold was kinda the perfect finish for the whole look and it felt like a strong symbol for being open-minded and not just to believe what you can see 🙂

We hope you enjoyed our simple and minimalistic journey.

House of Rfyre – Fashion Unlimited!

by

I felt very honored, as Raven Pennyfeather, owner and designer of House of  Rfyre,  IMed me and asked me if I would pose for one of her Vendors. We all know House of Rfyre RFyre for Gothic and Dark Couture, as well for amazing RP clothing. The textures usually are super high quality, wonderful detailed and unique. So you can imagine the feeling I had as Raven asked me. She sent me one of her newest creations called “Avril” in lavender and black. The outfit can be worn in different combinations as you see on the picture above. I made a few different stylings and Raven decided the one she liked most and that matched the best what she was aiming for. Working with Raven is fun and very productive I have to admit. During the photo shoot we had a lot of fun and she has a great music taste :p. The picture above was the result of the shooting and I really love it. “Avril” has more than only the black and lavender version.. if you are curious wich colors House of Rfyre offers for the “Avril” outfit you should make the way to the House of Rfyre Mainstore and see for yourself 🙂

Thanks a lot Raven for that wonderful opportunity and I hope we did not meet the last time 😉
