Wicca’s Originals @ We♥RP // July 2021

☥ Wicca’s Originals Ptah Headpiece ☥  // July 4th – 30th

The Egyptian god Ptah, the patron of craftsmen, has guided the hand of Wicca’s Originals to create the Ptah Headpiece, currently available at We♥RP .

In a land where sand and scorpions rule and water is priceless, prayers are offered to Ptah for protection. Only the truly worthy, the Holy, may wear the Anhk, the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol for life. For they shall be blessed on earth and granted immortality in the afterlife.

Coming modifiable, the headpiece can be adjusted on all kind of head shapes. With the huge HUD that holds 10 metal colors you can mix and match the Ptah Headpiece to all kind of looks!

Wasteland Summer…

TUNES

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin’ dirt and gritty
Been down, isn’t it a pity?
Doesn’t seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people looking half-dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

The Elena Boots arrived @ the Mainstore!!!

The Elena Boots, by Wicca’s Originals, carry that distinct, original Wicca style. The soft material sporting the elegant patterned pressed into it shows its Victorian influences, and is held in place along the shin snugly by a series of straps. The rest of the boot material can help this pattern stand out further by use of contrasting colors, visually striking as it conforms to the leg and foot. The base of the boot itself is a more traditional platform heel, with a thick, shiny platform supporting the toe and a stiletto spike supporting the heel, the look completed with a metal tip on the heel spike and the Wicca’s Originals insignia on the underside of the sole. Materials and metals come in 10 color options, fitted for Maitreya, Legacy, Hourglass, and Freya bodies.

And again another premiere and it was so much fun that I am sure we will do that again…

Vivien and me both had to blog a poses form different pose makers and thought we could make a little series out of it. So since her picture was the first she took the first part of the evening and me, with the second picture, the second part a little later at night 😉

We are both CerberusXing addicts and so most of our clothing certainly comes from there for this picture. Vivien was so generous to offer her bedroom for the shootings, so if you want to know more about the single items or her look as well – just ask her if you dare 😉

I more and more enjoy doing pictures with a friend and with Vivien it is so… easy. We think a like a lot, we have a close sense of style, our skins cooperate just amazing and since we are both making poses it is as well easy to arrange pose balls and do minor adjustments if needed. Sometimes we just sit hours and think about what we could and sometimes it is done in a blink, if one of us had an idea already. I do enjoy both sides of it and it does help my own creativity a lot, if we just talk about picture concepts and ideas. We never did a 2 part series before but even that was so much fun, that I hope we can do that again!

The Maddy Gloves, by Wicca’s Originals, are a fun, but practical arm accessory. Whether you need to wear it as a compression glove, or simply want some extra padding on your arms, these arm sheaths have you covered. These gloves extend from elbow to the base of the thumb and forefinger, and are secured by a series of four straps and buckles, allowing the wearer to adjust the tension in them for comfort or muscle and joint relief around the wrist. And even if there is no practical need, be bold and try them anyway; they’re a great alternative to the everyday bracelet, and can add some more ‘edge’ to your styling. They come in 10 different colors with 10 metal options as well, and are fitted for Maitreya, Legacy (F), Slink (F), and Gianni bodies.

Lazy Afternoon

As promised I come to you with another great gift at the SL18B – The “Beercorner” from DRD, with some great news from AsteroidBox and CerberusXing at Kustom 9 and the latest release from .:E.A.Studio:., which will come to the new round of Kinky at the 28th of June!

The Beercorner from DRD contains 2 different chairs, an awesome table and something to put on exactly that table *winks*. Believe it or not it is a free gift at the SL18B Shop & Hop from DRD!

The kick ass, cool top comes from AsteroidBox. “There are 16 color options available, with each purchase including 15 under shirt options, 13 strap options and 4 metal detail options. Fatpack includes all color options, with the option to change the main shirt and under shirt individually, allowing for mix and match styling. ” to quote the press release from AsteroidBox.

The cool earrings you will find at the upcoming round of Kinky, made by Eclipse Art Studio. The earrings are rigged for both versions of the LeLutka EvoX ears and can be worn as linked set, or left and right separate.

Last but not least, the cool pants are made by CerberusXing. They are not just pants… first of all they do have a great latex shine and second, they do have a gradient in their colors plus the lower legs get transparent the lighter they become! A real must have for my wardrobe and not the last time I will have used them for my pictures, especially since I saw there is a matching top at the Warehouse Sale for this round *grins*

Wicca’s Originals @ ACCESS Cyberfair // June 2021

Wicca’s Originals @ ACCESS Cyberfair // June 1st – 25th

“Form follows function” is an old design addage, but even in the age of cyber augmentation, it’s still relevant. Enter the Cypher Pants, engineered by the brightest minds at Wicca’s Originals. These pants are more than just coverings for your legs, they provide thermal insulation to protect from heat and cold. They grant your hips and thighs with next-generation support, alleviating some of the strain on them, allowing you to run longer with less effort. And of course, there is the very practical aspect of the slash-resistant materials used, giving the wearer a sense of security against either laceration or tearing, from falls on the asphalt, to thorny bushes or even knives. All of this in a sleek, aesthetically pleasing package. Get your Cypher Pants today, and feel the difference. Comes with 10 colors palettes and metal options, for Maitreya, Legacy, and Gianni bodies — Also comes in a ‘Rune edition’, for wear with the Rune Top!

The Yuri Arms by Wicca’s Originals are more than meets the eye. At a glance, they are sleek sleeves, covering from wrist to mid-upper arm, but they are so much more. Using a series of induction pads, the Yuri Arms read micro-electic pulses going on just underneath the dermal layer, in the musculature, and send signals to expand or contract along channels in the nanocarbon material to supplement the body’s natural strength. The effects of this range from subtle support to being a force multiplier, improving the precision of detailed work that requires a steady hand, or amplifying the raw strength behind a throw or a punch. This patented technology provides the best augmentation you can get for upper body control, short of invasive surgeries. Comes in 10 color options, with 10 metals, for Maitreya, Legacy, and Gianni bodies — Also comes in a ‘Rune Edition’ variant for use with the Rune Top.

Angels & Demons – Part 2

Originally shot for Eclipse Magazine // June 2021 Page 159-168 // https://issuu.com/eclipsemagazinesl/docs/eclipse_magazine_june_2021

Angels & Demons

What would you choose? Who would you become? Would you rather be enchanted or consumed by Heaven or Hell, Light or Dark, Good or Evil, Love or Hate, or to be Blessed or Cursed. Angels and Demons are polar opposites of one another within many cultures and in fiction. On one hand, they are a form of symbology and on the other they are seen in religion, mythology, and fantasy. Magical and mystical beings that we will read find in books, movies,movies, TV, anime or plays from ancient to modern. Even within the confines of real life and Second Life, we will roleplay and become one of them.

Despite the difference in abilities and the cultural milieu they come from, they share some similarities, such as, hierarchical ranks, miraculous or magical powers, and the enmities and friendships with each other and with mortals. Though Angels and Demons are often in a never-ending battle to defeat the other, in that chaos comes a little spark: opposites, suddenly attracted to or obsessed  with each other. Will they escape and find peace or be consumed by their conflict?

Their appearances can differ, both taking on ugly, distorted, fear-inducing manifestations, or transforming into beautiful, ethereal and alluring personas. Angels usually are depicted with long, modest, feather-like flowing garments, while a Demons attire is often tight, conforming to every curve or their form making it matter little how much or how little clothing they wear.. Although in the more modern age and flight of fantasy, anything goes, the color palettes don’t often change. Angels decorated in white and softened colors and pastels signifying purity and innocence, guiding you on your travels, while the Demons adorn black and deep, rich colors, warning you to watch where you tread, but do you want to? Will they draw you into the darkness forever lost in their grasp.
