Wicca’s Wardrobe: Torn

Wicca's Wardrobe - Torn 003

Sometimes you just do not know where to go or what to do, you feel torn inside and you only see darkness. Sometimes your inner only feels like a big fight and you have no clue how to escape.

Sometimes it it hard to find words to describe what you wanna say. And I tried to find words for this post and they just did not wanna flow. A close friend of mine, who is way better with words and who knows me very well wrote something for me after i showed her the pics and gave her a lot of single words and emotions and I would like to share it as it really expresses, what I only could say with pictures. Thank you Mal for finding the right words for me, for knowing me and understanding me even without any words sometimes.

Torn

I am alive – though I am dead

I am over you – though you bury me

I am me – though I am no one

I survive – though I die each day

I am strong – though I feel I will break any minute

I am you – though I don’t know who you are

I am here – though I don’t know where

I am understood – though you don’t know what I am talking about

I wanna enjoy –  though I don’t know fun anymore

I miss you – though I never know who you were

I am lonely – though there are crowds around me

I am dead – though I still move

I submit – though you are not worth it

I am all – though I cant cope

I will die – though I wanna live

I am weak – though I can do all I want

I am me  – though I am lost

I am there – though I don’t know where

I am a riddle – though it would be so easy

I wanna think – though I get stuck

I am happy – though I should not be

I am – though I am not

[AD] Creations: Tribute to A Midsummer Night’s Dream

AD Creations - Midsummernight 002

Again I have amazing news from [AD] Creations. Aliza Karu again did a special for the new project by [AD] Creations and LibriamoTutti – the BookLook! The challenge of this book is to choose a book and make a design that is be inspired by that book.

This month [AD] Creations’s design is called “Titania” and it is the dress for this month inspired by ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’.

AD Creations - Midsummernight 001

The wonderful outfit comes with nearly all parts and you just need to wear it. The dress has an white opaque, satin looking corset. The sheer skirt with the solid bottom boarder gives a little fairy touch to the whole creation, which is  underlined as well by the amazing flowers and shining gems. The hair and the wings as well comes with the outfit and make the perfect finish for this dreamy look. To make it even look more fairy like I decided to go bare feet and only ad the collar and some white bangles from Mandala to complete the look 🙂 The makeup is a combination of 2 different tattoo layers from Nuuna’s. To get your Midsummer Night Dream just stop by at the [AD] Creations Mainstore 😉

Wicca’s Wardrobe: LOTD 04/15/2013 – Black & Yellow

Bubbles Yellow 001

Sometimes when I just style for fun I try to make my self different tasks. Sometimes it is certain styles or even certain colors or color combinations. Today I was in a  little black and yellow mood after I tried one of the latest releases from Bubble’s Design. The “Tiffany Yellow” dress, that Bubbles released not too long ago brought me on the idea of the yellow & black color combination and I wanted to pull it through the whole styling and picture.

To the “Tiffany Yellow” dress from Bubble I added the newest shoe release from LeeZu, the “Piazza Navona” ankle boots. I love the non usual and crazy stuff anyways and this shoes just totally caught my heart. For this post I decided to go with the yellow ones but you can have them in nearly all colors at the LeeZu Mainstore. The “Anna” stockings I found as well at LeeZu.

To give it a little bit more craziness I added the “Cubism Shades” glasses from epoque & the back fan is a long time favourite of mine and I found them ages ago at [glow] 😉

Crazy Connection: Minimal Style with NYU

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.

Casual Evening Fun ;)

Mow - Wicca & Lovely Full

Not too long ago, my sweet little brother Dahriel sent me to a nice little shop called ‘M.o.w.‘, telling me I would find some super cool casual clothing there. I made my way over and I have to admit he was right. While I was roaming through the store, I had a nice talk with the owner and designer medusa Back. She seems to be a real nice and kind lady and we came across blogging. I got some amazing creations and after sometime I returned home and unpacked all the awesome goodies. While I was styling, Lovely Imed me and asked if she can visit me for some talking. I never can say no to her, she is simply too cute and so I TPed her over and she immediately discovered me styling me new M.o.w. clothing. She remembered that she has the same jacket as I was wearing and put it on. While we kept continue talking I combined the “Open Sweater” with the “Action Capris” as well from M.o.w. As I saw her in the “”Open Sweater” from M.o.w. I had to grab her and drag her in front of my camera with me 😉 The result of a wonderful and fun evening you can see in the pics 😉 If you wanna know the details of Lovely‘s styling you can see her blog (http://eclecticmiwa.wordpress.com/) or you just storm her IM asking her 😉

If you wanna see more of the amazing designs of M.o.w. you better take a look by yourself at the M.o.w. Mainstore 🙂

“The Sin” – Do you dare to be fierce?

Mea Culpa Sin Red First

Tatanka Kaligawa, genius owner and designer of Mea Culpa is back on duty 😉 He is working on many new creations right now and released already some of them in the last few days. I would like to start with the new “The Sin” catsuit today. This catsuit with the amazing latex texture can be a great basic for a cool and fierce styling. The shiny latex texture has a super realistic look with all the lights and shadows and the amazing front part is a highlight for itself as the most latex catsuits only have a simple zipper in the front. Mea Culpa takes the latex catsuit on a new level 🙂 It is available in many different colors at the Mea Culpa Mainstore. As well Tatanka offers a “custom color” creation for the “The Sin” catsuit for a little extra fee. So what ever look you wanna create you can have the matching color of the “The Sin” catsuit, just put a color sample and your needs on a NC and you can have your custom colored “The Sin” catsuit 🙂

Do you dare to be fierce?

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.

ManieraModels_CorsetFeature_LovelyMiwako7399 Menna_December12_02

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.

ManieraModels_CorsetFeature_LovelyMiwako7399 Menna_December12_05

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 🙂

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 🙂

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Broken

TUNES

Lyrics:

I wanted you to know
that I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high
steal your pain
…away.
I keep your photograph
and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high
and steal your pain

cuz I’m broken
when I’m lonesome
and I don’t feel right,
when you’re gone away

you’ve gone away
you don’t feel me
anymore

the worst is over now,
and we can breathe again
I want to hold you high
and steal your pain
There’s so much left to learn
and no one left to fight
I want to hold you high
and steal your pain

cuz I’m broken
when I’m open
and I don’t feel like
I’m strong enough
Cuz I’m broken
when I’m lonesome
and I don’t feel right
when you’re gone away

New from SoliDea FoliEs!!!

Today I have the great pleasure to show you one of the latest releases from Mila Tatham, owner and incredible designer of SoliDea FoliEs. I admire SoliDea FoliEs for a long time and I followed her creations for a long time. Mila always creates amazing designs that are out of the box. Her creations bring some fresh air in the fashion scene and all who know me, know anyways that I love creations, that are out of the box and not that usual 🙂 The more I feel honored now that I am allowed to be official one of the girls that is allowed to blog her designs. For today I would like to showcase one of the newest releases called “Here comes the Sun”.

This amazing creation really is purely the sun. The wonderful light and sheer skirt and arm parts give the whole outfit a very sexy and soft touch. The arm parts move dreamy in the wind and the wonderful skirt carries some wonderful flowers. The flowers we as well find on the upper body. A tendril of flowers goes around the upper body and covers your private parts, again the flowers got repeated round the waist. A few long and flexible lines are going down from the waist part as well. The body itself is sheer and you can see the skin through this awesome fabric. The amazing head-piece is a part of the outfit, too.The forehead is decorated by little cute yellow roses and some lines and balls go up in the air and add a light futuristic and avantgarde touch. Overall this is a perfect outfit, to escape the grey, snowy and rainy days of the actual season. 🙂

The wonderful “Here comes the Sun” you can find at SoliDea @Modavia (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/MODAVIA/181/214/22)

For the skin you can see on picture 2 & 3 I have a little sweet story as well. I was so happy, to be allowed to blog SoliDea FoliEs, that I wanted to make some very special for my first picture. Soon it was clear I wanted wild hair but then I wanted som matching makeup as well. I broke in Malicia Python’s IM… she is the genius designer of Silken Moon and she offers custom makeups for her skins. She already did me a lot of special makeups for my new “Rookie” skin and I guess she already is used to my IM attacks… 😉 I showed her the dress and told her I would like something yellow for lips and eyes. She asked me if I not better would like a darker tone of skin for a yellow makeup and I said, that I would love to keep my pale tone… She told me it will not look cool if she just adds a light yellow on a light skin and that she logs now to think something special. Not a lot later she came back and just said ” Don’t laugh…” and sent me the skin she made with the yellow makeup. And again she hit the nail on the head as so many times before, the result you can see in pic 2 & 3 😉 Thanks so much Malicia!!!
