Styling around a sideboard?

March 15, 2014 by Wicca Merlin

Styling around a sideboard or a sideboard as styling accessory?

Yes you read right ;). This time, I wanted to showcase the new “Sophia Sideboard” from Leezu, that wou will find at the Arcade gacha event. The “Sophia Sideboard” is available in 8 different colors and textures in the closed version like we have it on the pictures. The 2 rares are a dark and white sideboard with open compartments and some clothing hanging out, very cute.

So since I call my blog mainly a fashion blog I usually combine furniture, plants and whatever with some stylings ;).

For today I had a rose tinted sideboard so I wanted to find something matching ;).

As all of you know probably about my pink allergy, I decided to have just a little bit of pink for my look 😉 . Ok.. even maybe more because I wanted to let the sideboard shine and pop out a little more but the first reason sounded better :p .

I am an addicted to the creations of Mila Tatham, so I looked through my SoliDea FoliEs folder until I found the “Caoimhe” dress. This stunning and lovely black white dress with its pink petals just was what I had in mind. To break the lovely and playfull look, I decided to go heavy on the makeup.

It was kinda fate when Malicia Paython, owner and designer of Silken Moon, showed me one of her releases for the skin fair. It starts tomorrow, the 15th of march, and there you will find the “Go Faster Nun”. The “Go Faster Nun” has different options to wear it. You can wear it as a full with the upperbody connected to the face in black or you only can wear the facepart. The black mask covers the lower face from the nose down and has a black stripe up between the eyes. To make sure the full versions can be worn with the various avatar enhancements, Silken moon as well offers a Slink applier for the hands and a Lola’s Bra applier for the mesh boobies, if you like to wear them. To add back some sweet and nice I added the “Cherry Blossom” makeup with it’s sweet veins and pink flowers under the left eye.

To add a bit more roughness I wanted to wear the “stp boots” from Death Row Design. I got them longer time ago and never found the right styling to add them. With the black & white striped lower leg it was the perfect addition to the “Caoimhe” dress from SoliDea FoliEs.

To make the look complete I used the “Kat” hair, made by EMO-tions. This special hair style was made for the Kattaca Challenge of the MVW 2014 for one of the contestants. This wild and extraordianry hairstyle comes with a wonderful painter accessory that you can add if you like. For this post I skipped it as the colors did not match my idea of the black & white with some pink 😉

Love for Donna Flora – SoliDea FoliEs for Squinternet Larnia

July 29, 2013 by Wicca Merlin

Please make sure you visit the Love for Dona Flora sim and see all of those amazing designs, that were created to help Squinternet! (Taxi: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Brookridge/139/155/31)

Mila Tatham, owner and designer of SoliDea FoliEs, contributed 2 amazing creations. One of them is the “Dotty” dress. A wonderful short white dress with huge black spots. The delicate laced top, together with the amazing collar and writs parts call for a cute, nice and all sweet styling usually. So I wanted to give it some twist and as I showed it to Malicia, all she had to say was like “…you look like a crazy, freaky stewardess”.. thank you Mal.. so much to that :p .

I added one of the amazing hats of Donna Flora called “Blackpool” and some hair from Amacchi that they gave away at the hair fair as a gift 😉

The shoes I used for this post, are one of the amazing creations that Energie showcases on the actual Shoe Fair 2013. The “Flirtiny” heels really caught my attention as they were something new to me. First of all I saw they come with 2 different HUDS. One for socks and skin options and one for the nails and all the amazing spikes. What was special to me, was the idea of not having regula stockings that do not show the toes. I liked how the stockings have open spots at the feet and with the HUD you can choose from different ornaments for the stockings, different colors of the stockings and even a ripped option. All the different stockings that you can choose for the feet , are delivered as well in a special stocking bag, wich comes with the shoes. The extreme high heels can be decorated with 3 different colors via the HUD – Gold, Silver nd black. If you wanna see more of the amazing ne creations of Energie hurry to the Shoe Fair 2013 and see what else they have new!

Cavaleiro

July 22, 2013 by Wicca Merlin

Today I have some wonderful news from the Hairfair 2013 again, together with one of the latest releases of SoliDea FoliEs.

This post today is a perfect example for what happens if you are not quite sure what you wanna do*giggles*

I was fooling around with some clothing and just tried the “Blue” outfit from SoliDea FoliEs as got the latest releases for the Hairfair from Miamai.

I tried all the wonderful new hair styles as I came across the “Latin Lover” style. A wonderful unisex ponytail with a hat. I was looking at myself for sometime not sure what I shall think, as all of a sudden a picture of the portoguese Cavaleiros. Cavaleiros are male or female horseman or woman, kinda riders, out of the 18th century. Maybe it was a female version of a spanish Matador even, I have no clue what made my mind fly off like that*grins* but I saw me sitting with my new made style on a horseback*siggles*

I am sure the “Blue” outfit was not made for this purpose, but it was just too tempting to give it a try. Usually you have a huge headpiece of petals as well for your head I just skipped that for the “Latino Lover” hairstyle from Miamai. I added some nipple pastsies and a necklace from DECO… and for sure the horse*grins* The “Blue” outfit is a pants outfit with awesome huuuge ruffles and a wonderful mesh corset. The petals give a wonderfil payful touch to the whole outfit.

And now the horror started.. find a horse and a sim.. after looking for 2 days I found both and had a lot of fun fooling around with the various possibilities of the horse in front of a beautiful background. I wanted to give the pics an aged, used look. As I never did that before it was al ot of experimenting but I am happy about the outcome so far 😉

The Hairfair will be gone soon so make sure you go and buy for a good case, as many donations go to the Wigs for Kids charity!

Louis Vuitton inspired with SoliDea FoliEs

July 16, 2013 by Wicca Merlin

As I got one of the latest releases from SoliDea FoliEs I immediately had to think about the last Louis Vuitton collection. With all the squares and colored versions of it I wanted to make soething according to that and with the “Twiggy” outfit I instantly has an idea for the pictures 😉 .

The “Twiggy” outfit of SoliDea FoliEs is based on black and white squares with some color accents. I chose the black version for this post but you can find other colors as well 😉 .

The whole outfit is mesh made and you have different sizes to make sure it fits your avatar.

The black bracelets are part of the outfit too. I looked at myself and I really wanted some hat of head pice that goes with the “Twiggy” outfit from SoliDea FoliEs. I searched through my inventory but I could not find any, so I stormed Kyra Camel’s IM. Kyra owns her own brand for female and male clothing, named Baboom and she made crazy head pieces before that she showed me in the past so I asked her if she could make me something squared with yellow accents. She showed me many of her creations and all of a sudden she pulled out a hat I fell immediately in love with. She retextured the hat to squares for me and I asked her if I can have that cute flower in a yellow tone that matches the yellow on the outfit. It just took her seconds to do that for me and on top she made me a matching clutch.

To bing back some yellow accents to my face as well, I remembered a tintable version of the “Dahlinka Wild-Zebra” makeup from Zibska.

A last look into the mirror and some yellow squared background and ready was the Louis Vuietton inspired imagination 😉

Seasons of Couture – A Midsummer Night’s Dream

June 11, 2013 by Wicca Merlin

For the June 2013 issue of the BoSL Magazine, I had the great pleasure to work with Natzuka again. Our fresh crowned MVW 2013, was always a person I adored for her photography skills and for the person she is. So you can imagine how happy I was, when Persia asked me if I would like to work with Natzuka for a spread for Seasons of Couture… for sure I would like, what a question!

Seasons of Couture… what is that you might ask. Seasons of Couture is a special project by BoSL & Co. Over 20 of the best designers on the grid, created RL inspired seasonal styles. At the Seasons of Couture you can get the designs for 30% off the retail price, but only a 100 of each. After that 100 they will go with the regular prize to the designers Mainstores.

Seasons of Couture location: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/The%20Renaissance%20Galleria/119/79/28)

So Natzuka and me went to the Seasons of Couture store at the Renaissance Galleria. She was supposed to do the pictures and I thought she will choose the ones, that go best together for the pictures. As she asked me wich ones I liked the most… I totally was surprised and super happy and for sure 2 black designs by Azull Ash and YK jumped into my eyes, as my most favourite color is black. Natzuka chose 2 great contrast colors to the black by ghee and SoliDea FoliEs and I got more and more excited what the pics will look like. She showed me some ideas of RL graphics and pictures, what she had in mind and my jaw dropped down. The ideas looked amazing and with Natzuka’s skills I was sure, if someone can pull that out, it is her. But we still needed 2 more outfits to make a total of 4 pics, with always the both of us and it really was a hard choice with all the amazing creations that we saw. All of a sudden Natzuka pointed on a pink dress and I saw her face expression… she looked lightly evil with a huge grin as her finger pointed towards a wonderful design of Bliss Couture but in pink! I got scared… she knows my pink allergy and I really thought she wanna torture me, but her face became all smooth and nice again, as she said: “I like this one” and my muscles relaxed again. She looked further and asked me what I think about a light green even some teal looking color to the pink and pulled me towards a design of Sonatta Morales. I thought it is a tough combination but if she can see it in front of her inner eye, I trust her. You can see exactly that combination on the picture above and it was one of the most amazing pictures I ever saw, so yes this woman really knows her job and I again got proved it did right by trusting her. For the last picture she decided to go on a gold and white combination, a very elegant one by Countdown and Azull Ash. If I look over all this 4 pictures I guess we found a real nice mixture that show, how many different styles you can find at the Seasons of Couture. Anyways if formal, elegant, avantgarde, casual or what ever you look for, you always will find something that matches your styling ideas.

For the credits of the outfits you can take a look at the actual BoSL Magazin (http://magazine.thebestofsl.com/fashion/june-2013)

Thanks a lot Persia for the opportunity <3

Thanks so much Natzuka, for this incredible amazing pictures and the time we spent for making them. It is always fun to work or hang out with you 🙂

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Jewelry Tree

May 16, 2013 by Wicca Merlin

Today I was in a little black mood again and wanted to do something semi formal, elegant but still something artistic. Sometimes you have something in your mind and it just does not wanna come out. I was trying for over 2 hours … different outfits, accessories.. nothing wanted to ‘click’ in my mind and set something free or meet my imagination or feelings. The all of a sudden I came across the “Haudrey Night” head piece from SoliDea FoliEs. That was a great basic to start with. I looked through all the new releases from SoliDea FoliEs to find a matching outfit. The “Sofia” dress was the perfect outfit and slowly the idea for the style and picture were growing inside my head 🙂

The tight shoulder free dress and the wonderful head piece let room for some extravagant jewelry. Not too long ago Finesmith released the set that was made for the Finesmith Muse 2014 poster. The set contains two chest and two body parts. in silver with light green gems and light pink flowers. The “Haudrey Night” head piece has some black pearls on it and i wanted to bring them back, so I added the bracelet from the “Maniko” set as well from Finesmith.

Now I needed some scenery and I have no clue why but a ‘Jewelry Tree’ was stuck in my mind all of a sudden. I did not wanna have a spring tree with lots of petals and stuff and I remembered an old dead tree I bought ages ago for an event deco. To decorate the tree with jewelry I needed something that brings something organic with it. The”Love doesn’t grow on trees” set! yes that could be an idea. Finesmith released this set last year and I already fell in love with it as it came out. The combination of organic parts like the wooden parts of the eye ornaments and the wonderful combination of all those different materials and shapes in the necklace were just perfect. I only had to resize them to make them really big so that I could decorate the dead tree with them.

Now I only had to place myself into that tree and my imagination became true 🙂

Crazy Connection: The Soul Mirror

April 3, 2013 by Wicca Merlin

The Soul Mirror

Loki was an immortal, some even thought him to be a kind of evil god. In fact he was a magician who simply stole the life from others. Being a handsome man, he liked the girls wooing over him, wherever he met them. But he did not really care for the women he could have easily. And he could get quite obsessed with the ones that ignored him.

Once, his eye fell on a very pretty girl and he thought her an easy pray for his looks and charms. But she did not fall for him. Always polite, she turned him down. He sent her flowers, he sent her gifts and she always thanked him heartily – but her heart did not warm up to him.

He got mad at every man around her, even her brothers and made their lives difficult wherever he could. But that only made her care more for those who suffered his magical interferences. Loki got so frustrated about not getting his will, he decided to make her his by force.

He weaved a gown from cobwebs and added shiny mirrors made from frozen tears. When it was ready, he went to the girl under the pretext of saying goodbye. She let him in and accepted the farewell-gift. He begged her to try it on and she did. But as soon as she looked into one of the mirrors, she felt her soul being drawn into one of the mirrors. Her body stood there like a statue.

Loki snatched the mirror, her soul was trapped in and looked at her. “Now you are mine at last!” He cried out in triumph. She just looked at him with such a sadness, that what was left from his heart broke. Feeling he did something wrong for the first time in aeons overwhelmed in and he broke the mirror, and so the spell and let her go.

Having returned to her body she felt like she had fell asleep for some seconds. Looking at Loki clutching a piece of mirror in mental agony. He cut his hand and as his blood touched the magic mirror, some very old magic came to life. He was granted a wish. In his state the only thing he wished for was to be loved and cause no more harm.

He dropped dead to the floor – because this is the only way to grant someone never hurts somebody else again.

Crazy Connection: The question that matters

March 30, 2013 by Wicca Merlin

The question that matters.

Sirena was a young woman leading a carefree life. She had a good job, no worries and the men courted her, though she did not really care for them. All in all, she did not really care for anyone but herself, using the same excuses we all tend to use. “That is none if my business.” “What can I do about it?” or “I don’t want to interfere.”

She lived close to the graveyard and when the weather was fine, she took a shortcut there from the bus home. One evening, she saw a woman on a bench, crying bitter tears. The woman looked at her, but Serena quickly looked away. When she was about to leave the graveyard an old witch – by the looks of her – stepped into Serena’s way and asked straight away “Why didn’t you ask the woman why she cried?” Serena was a little scared and mumbled, I thought she was mourning, this is a graveyard after all. What can I do about her grief?”

The old witch looked at her sadly and shook her head. “Dear girl, you need a lesson in compassion. I hex you not to be able to leave the graveyard until someone shows you the sympathy you denied that woman.”

Serena did not know if to laugh or to be scared, the old woman had disappeared as sudden as she showed up. Serena headed for the exit but ran into an invisible wall. She tried to get out at another spot, but to no avail.

Whenever she tried to talk to someone, they ignored her. After a while the place took its tribute, her eyes burnt out from crying over her own sad fate, her nails grew into claws, in short, she became a fearful sight. People started to run away from her thinking her a demon of some sort.

One day, when she was sitting numbly on a gravestone mulling over her fate and feeling the pain of being ignored, she finally learned her lesson. For the first time, she did not cry out of self-pity, but for shame and pity for all the people she had ignored all her life.

Suddenly she heard a warm male voice behind her. “Excuse me, can I do anything for you?” She felt the curse break and when she turned round she saw a man, just like herself smiling at her. “I think you can go home now.” He said.
