Lybra & Finesmith 002

Sometimes you do not really know what you wanna style, or what you wanna wear and then you maybe just start with the basic idea of the color. Today I was in a black & white mood.

For the base I took the amazing “Tigress Gown” by Lybra. Lybra made this for the Tiger Alley event at SAVIAD. The imagination of a white tiger is not to deny ;). The long tight shape of the mesh dress, that opens towards the floor, with its tiger looking top and the more black wider bottom was the perfect start to create one of my very own looks 😉 .  If you put on a dress you have various possibilities how to style it. You can go for the elegant and pretty look, or you can go a bit more couture or wild. For today I had no particular style in mind and just followed my feelings. The jewelry I took from the “Amit” of Finesmith. Usually the set comes with a black short leather dress but the jewelry itself was so perfect to the “Tigress Gown” from Lybra, so I decided to just mix those 2 😉 The wonderful head piece with the flower heads wich were repeated at the bracelet and the chest part give some kind of a spring feeling even if they are black. The petals that run down over the face for me give a lightly mystic or dreamy looking attitude to the whole look.

Now the whole look became  bit too elegant for my actual mood and I remembered the amazing “Gacha Horns” that I got from a gacha at the Arcade. Those made the perfect contrast to the basic elegant look 😉 .

The amazing necklace as well was made for a gacha with a lot of different colors. Natzuka made those and as well some wonderful spring looking rings for her gachas at the SAVIAD Spring Fair.

And now please take  look at those evil long and sharp nails… aren’t they just cool?

They are made by Formanails. Formanails started to make nails for the Slink hands not too long ago and I already had a special about them. Ivi Bing keeps herself busy and brings more and more amazing designs. The latest ones are the “XXL” nails. With an inbuilt menu you can change the textures on them by touch and I really was happy when I found a black and white one that was just perfect for my todays look 🙂

Taste the Rainbow – Maybe the darker end of it?

Rainbow Hunt Faster PussyCat 001

And again I am in need of some serious medicals, after I was wearing this incredible contribution of Faster PussyCat for the Taste the Rainbow Hunt.

The “Lady Rainbow Laced Pants” are as well part of the mini collection that Faster PussyCat made for the most colorful hunt I ever saw. The “Lady Rainbow” pants are mesh made and the cool black laces at the sides give them a light punk touch, which I took as inspiration to go more into that direction and mix the strong colors with some more dark and edgy parts.

Rainbow Hunt Faster PussyCat 002

The top I chose, comes from LeeZu and is part of their BDSM collection. I just took the top part of the “Liquid Latex” outfit and the gloves. The wonderful colored wings are as well part of the Taste the Rainbow Hunt, made by Deviance. The cool hair is the “Pero” from Zibska, which i found at the HairFair 2013, but I retextured the white version of it to let it match to the colored look.

Rainbow Hunt Faster PussyCat 003

The mask I found at the gacha Fair. I had the luck to pull the rare version of the “Itzy Spider”” mask from Black Pearls, that has this neat scripted metal spider sitting on the shoulder. The mas covers half of the face with a black fabric and is decorated by a chain and a toothed wheel over the left eye. This mask as well can go very well with a steampunk look. At the lips as well you can see those 2 metal parts, that are part of the “Itzy Spider” mask. For the shoes, I remembered some cool shoes from Oh! with a little moving spider inside of the plateau soles.

My skin for sure is my custom made “Wicca” skin from Silken Moon. Silken Moon just released a new wonderful skin named “Diva”.

Malicia Python again outdid herself to create an incredible new skin for her E-Clipse line. I will soon have a complete post about it, so just a little teaser at this time 😉

You still have till the 3rd of September 2013 to do the amazing Taste the Rainbow Hunt. With all the amazing contributions of  various designers it is really worth it to give it a try 😉 You just have to search the little glass that is hidden at the stores. (I already gave the surls to the stores here:https://wiccamerlin.de/somewhere-over-the-rainbow-in-second-life-or-wicca-in-wonderland/)

This is what you're hunting for...

Rainbow Hunt - FP+SS 001

Again I would like to drag your attention to the ‘Somewhere over the Rainbow’ hunt. Faster Pussycat made a mini collection of 4 amazing outfits for that crazy and colorful hunt. Today I would like to spotlight the “Lady Rainbow Pantsuit”. Honey Bender and PoosyKat LittleBoots really became crazy with the rainbow theme. The pantsuit is shoulder free and super cool scarf, that is part of the outfit, makes a perfect addition to the suit.

Rainbow Hunt - FP+SS 002

The huge dragonfly as well is part of the ‘Somewhere over the Rainbow’ hunt and comes from Studio Sidhe, a super cool poses and prop store. The huge colorful dragonfly works like a glider. you just have to sit on the bar and you can fly all over the grind with the amazing hunt gift.

If yxou would take a closer look at the hands now… I would like to drag your attention to my nail polish. Malicia Python, owner an designer of Silken Moon made a huuuuge palette of various colors for the SLINK hands. The shine of the nailpolish is really amazing and so awesome realistic! You should really take a look at the Silken Moon Mainstore and see all the beautiful colors.

The incredible realistic shoes are made by ENNA. The sneakers really caught my heart, as they are so well textured. The “ENNA Sneakers” for women are available in different colors, wich you all can see at the ENNA Mainstore. For the hair I cheated a little bit. I took the white version of the “Octavia” hair from Zibska, and colored all the single parts in the same bright col9ors, that I found on the “Lady Rainbow Pantsuit” from Faster Pussycat. For the makeup, I decided to go with a mix of the amazing “Cool Pink” eyes from LovelyMi and the “Wicca Lips Blue Steel from Silken Moon.

Louis Vuitton inspired with SoliDea FoliEs

Solidea - Vuiletton Inspired 001

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.

Solidea - Vuiletton Inspired 002

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 😉

The Runway Perfect Hunt #4 – Part 5

TRPH #4 - DotBE close

The Runway Perfect Hunt goes in it’s 4th round :) . Morgane Batista again made it, to get amazing designers to participate in one of the most famous hunts on the grid. Even if the title says “The hunt with models in mind” does not mean this hunt is limited to models only. All the amazing and versatile designs are amazing additions to everybody’s wardrobe, even the males will find some amazing hunt prizes in some locations ;) This year the hunt is not a total freebie hunt, each hunt item costs $5 Linden. With a total of 50 shops you reach a maximum of $250 Linden, what is a great amount for so many amazing quality designs!

I always had a weakness for black & white outfits and stylings and as I saw the hunt prize from location #23, Dot BE Fashion I would not resist to do another totally black & white look ;).  Boniefacio, owner and designer of Dot BE Fashion, made a wondeful 2 part outfit called “Female Outfit” for the 4th Runway Perferct Hunt. The long black mesh pants with the wide sleeves reminded me of the good old flares of the 70s. Together with the long, geometric black & white textured mesh top it gets a light touch of a retro style. To do not another totally retro style I decided to add one of my favourite 80s look hair and the “Britsh Loafers” from Redgrave, what pulled it more towards the 80s. To give it another more modern touch I added the awesome “Dahlink Wild Zebra” makeup from Zibska and the “Lips Stripes” from Silken Moon, wich both went amazing with the black & white “Female Outfit” top :).

The Runway Perfect Hunt will last until the 30th of May so do not hesitate too long to grab your hunt prizes ;)

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Paranoid

Natzuka Full

Lately I was talking to Natzuka Milandrovic, a very close friend of mine and we came across the new ‘trend’ of combining fetish elements to high fashion, couture and avantgarde. If I remember back, when I started modeling in SL it was not even to think about and nowadays more and more designer and agencies try to do that. After a while she told me about a casting, that as well requested stylings with fetish parts and she showed me the outfit she made by herself for this casting. I totally fell in love with and after I told her that she was so kind and gave it to me with some poses that are made for this cool outfit.

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLG5OoB78vU&w=560&h=315]

As I saw the name of the outfit and the poses I had to grin and immediately I had the song “Paranoid” from Back Sabbath (linked above) stuck in my mind. So as I was styling the outfit, I listened to it most of the time and maybe that’s why the styling became a bit… crazy.

Natzuka Half

The outfit is named “Paranoid” and so is the pose set as well 😉 Nat founded a brand for all her different creations called Flighty Pixels. For this brand she did not set herself any boarders so I definately will keep my eyes on what she will create 😉

The “Paranoid” outfit contains a corset, the panty stripe some lace at the chest and the huge cool head-piece. I only added soe socks, the “Gothic Platforms” from L&B and the “Elle” hair from Zibska. The amazing arm tattoos are made by Talyia Tarber for her new brand The Makeup Artist. The amazing spades that cover the nipples, the front chest and the left eye are part of the “Spades” makeup and tattoo layers from Nuuna’s.

Natzuka Poses

With this interesting and cool outfit from Flighty Pixels Creative and the poses by Flighty Pixel Poses, Nat built a great base for her new brand. She already made quite a few poses besides the “Paranoid” set and I am really curious with what she will come up next 😉
