Dark Eden Phobos2 Set
I think I’ve found a new-to-me piece of latex and leather heaven! I have heard of Dark Eden and designer Etain Peregrine, but had yet to visit the store I’m embarrassed to admit. I am so glad I did today! I picked up this fabulous ensemble called Phobos2 in red and I’ll I could say was Eureka! This is one kick-butt outfit. It has just about everything you could need for some good old fashioned dominatrix action. I wonder if I could get hubby to pick up the dry cleaning if I wear this one..hmm, but I digress. The texturing of the of the lace up latex halter and thong underwear is exquisite as are the very realistic buckles on the arms. The leather of the of the belt and neck prims is equally wonderfully done. To top it all off you get a head-turning set of latex stockings AND boots. All this for a mere 300L! Did I mention you get boots with it too?
Simone Cutwork Catsuit Revisited - 200L sale!
I am always so happy when Simone has a 200L sale! I’m like a kid in a candy store. Today, my assistant Mhairi Hastings and I headed to the store. We both loved this latex catsuit so much we decided to snap a pic to show you. The leather texture is fantastic! It looks so realistic and supple. As usual, the details are flawless on this very sexy outfit. You can’t see it from the pic, but the top is lace up from the navel to the breast line. Every time I go to Simone, I see something I just have to have. There is always so much to look at so be prepared to spend some time there.
Green3 Gallery - SL Ave
Green3 Bailey of Green3 Gallery sent me this fabulously outrageous outfit called SL Ave. The look comes complete with collar and skin which provides that mysterious masked look. I was curious about Green3 so I teleported over to the gallery. It’s really cool! I loved it. A lot of artistic vision went into creating and decorating the space there, which impressed me. Back to the outfit - admittedly, I see some detail issues with the latex texture; obvious little jaggies and some mismatching of the texture, but I was impressed with the overall style which speaks volumes to me. With the outfit, I chose Hair by Cher called Pamela created by Cheresse Damone.
INSOLENCE by name
Camilla Yosuke was kind enough to send me some copies of INSOLENCE’s new line called Misty. This new line is comprised of some seriously HOT lingerie with a BDSM edge. If you love latex, this is the line for you! The new line retains the high quality and upscale detailing for which INSOLENCE is very well known. I’ll admit, I’m not that well-versed in fetishwear (yet), but I have to say I really enjoyed wearing these items! They were so much fun to photograph!
I’ve featured four designs in the line. The Dionne latex catsuit is hotter than hot is hot. It has a slew of varied panties including an ‘open’ version and a zipped version, zippered catsuit pants with the zipper echoed at the neckline. I’ll warn you, the undies are SERIOUSLY sexy! The latex texture is exquisitely realistic and highlights your curves beautifully. I’ve paired the catsuit with hair by Detour called Luna.
I’ve also featured the Sally Latex Ensemble, which features a zipped up latex, breast-baring corset with garter. This set also features a varied array of panties if you want to be more daring, being open at the front instead of zippered. Again, the latex is smooth and supple and tight enough to make your partner breathe heavy! I’ve chosen hair by Truth called Angel2 which includes the fedora.
Next is the Tracey Latex Ensemble, which includes a fabulous black latex halter and undies with elbow-length zippered gloves. I love the criss-cross neckline with only a teeny zipper holding it all together. That opens up some interesting possibilities, doesn’t it? I’ve chosen to wear it with hair by Damselfly called Spoiled, one of my newest favourites in my ever expanding inventory.
Lastly, I wanted to show you the Dawn bodysuit, which has laced up sides and zippers on the front and back of the suit. Again, it includes elbow-length zippered gloves and latex stockings. I’ve chosen hair by Abyss called Secret.
Thanks again to camilla Yosuke for introducing me to the new Misty line. You can find these designs at INSOLENCE’s main store.
toXic Boutique
Looking for something extra sexy in which to ring the New Year? Trot down to toXic Boutique and take a look at their leather and latex designs, you may find your next killer clubbing outfit. To the far left you can see their black latex jacket set. This set includes the jacket, panties, stockings, boots and a prim collar for L$ 300. I had some trouble getting the collar to behave, but once I did the outfit definitely turns heads. Next to the jacket you can see their stunning Webbed Spider Set, which, like the jacket, includes all that you see in the picture, including the shoes, for only L$ 400. The design is wonderfully goth and will be one of the first things I think of when looking for sexy Halloween garb next fall. The quality is good, and considering that the stockings and shoes are included with these designs I consider them quite a fun bargain!
One of my favorite pieces from toXic is the dress to the left, called the Zippered Dress for the detailed zipper that runs down the front. The real feature of course is the sexy open back with laces as shown in the picture. This outfit, like the others, includes the stockings and shoes, and is really quite fetching. The skirt is made with just a skirt front prim so there’s no worries about big butt syndrome or having to show your dress form booty.
Take a trip to toXic Boutique and see what you think, I liked what I found there.
Quelle Scandale! Bishwear by DBS Heart
Sorry I’ve been so scarce around these SexySecond parts for so long. I blame it all on the tidal effect of the moon and my crippling addiction to chocolate. (I’m back from rehab, thanks for asking, but in danger of a relapse at any moment!)
I knew as soon as I saw this outfit come across the release wire on Fashion Consolidated that it was something I’d want to show off here. DBS Heart (aka ShyOne Lehane) has two lines of clothing, Bishwear and Scandal, both housed together at Cecil (130, 55, 91). This sleek, slick and sexy little outfit is named “Scandal.” Shown in black, it’s also available in a very very dark blue if you prefer to be a bit less chromatically challenged. (But, really, since when do dominatrixi choose blue over black?)
I am also showing the brand new Ophelia boots in this photo too. These sky high platform thigh high boots have lots of chains and buckles just in case your viewing audience isn’t clear who is in charge. With a wicked steel heel and plenty of sleek shiny latex highlighting, these boots weren’t exactly made for walking, no matter what Nancy Sinatra sings.
A final note about this outfit. Shyone Lehane also makes some gorgeous skins, as you can see in this photo because I’m wearing her skin under this outfit. As you can tell, it has some absolutely beautiful body shading on the abs, tummy, and back. The makeup is smoky and dark, perfect for this kind of sexy dungeon domme look. Might be a one-stop-shop for all your sexy, slinky needs. It often is for me, personally.
Fah-lah-lah and all that Jazz…
I just stopped by to wish you all happy holidays and of course to get my Christmas cuties on.
Because everyone seems to be in an insane rush today (can’t imagine why…) I thought I’d recommend an all in one buy. For your obligatory skimpy dress complete with fur trim, sexy stockings and matching shoes from Nanogunk: $450L for the lot. Purple and red versions available too.
The marvellous ‘do is courtesy of Calla: stop by and pick up the presents under the tree for $0L, and you too can have gorgeous holiday hair. There are lots of seasonal colours, although Candy Cane is easily my favourite.
Eat much, make merry, and be sure you get plenty of wear from that mistletoe!
Have yourself a Kayliwulfy Christmas
Yes, it’s me… and I’m all wrapped up for Christmas. Lazurus Luan is to blame for my falling foul of this season’s wicked commercialism: I would be cross with him for tempting me, but I am too busy drooling all over this gorgeous latex Christmas costume from Kayliwulf Kingdom.
I know Justine only blogged Kayliwulf a couple of weeks ago, but it would have been criminal of me not to bring these new releases to your attention. Starting with Holly Daze, I couldn’t get myself over these delicious mistletoe pasties: red bows sit over the tops, with split shiny-leaves and even twig stem detailing beneath the pearly berries. The waist is held with a corset, the seams held with black lacing and silver eyelet detail down the length, an optional bow tied to the base. A central buckle fastening centres the front, the sides drawn in by the red-ribboned panels that curve around the torso. The back is similarly panelled, the latex texture shining across. The panties sit beneath the low back, string pulling beneath the legs and joining at the front for a simple but sexy brief. The legs and arms are also encased, emerald latex shimmering from every angle. The outfit is finished with fluffy red cuffs and break-neck stilettos.
Naturally I needed more… and Kayliwulf provided. ‘Heat Miser’ and ‘Snow Miser’ are the same design in two distinct colour schemes, both of which I was quick to smother myself in. Lazurus describes this as his most realistic latex texturing to date, and I can certainly vouch for that: while Kayliwulf has always been of very high quality, this does go the extra mile and you can’t help but be impressed with what you get.
The outfit centres on the detailed bodice, falling from a flat buckle neckline with a cutout front, the sweetheart cut above the chest emphasising cleavage in a way that’s sure to have your significant other on their knees at the mere sight. Just to be sure you get the point across, studded bands work their way under the breasts and hold everything firm, ending at either side of the central zipper that runs down to the stomach. Overlaid with a trio of straining buckles, you’ll want to get up close and personal to appreciate the subtleties of the sheen.
The umbrella skirt is beautifully made: the movement is outstanding. It may be just long enough to cover everything when you’re standing straight – assuming everyone else is still at eye level – the moment you start walking you’ll be able to delight in the bounce that flashes your buttocks with each fresh step.
All concealing boots work all the way up to the thighs, providing another gorgeous expanse of latex to admire. The bases are cruelly pointed both at the toe and heel, giving a wicked shape that I know you’ll love as much as I do.
There are many, many more outfits in store. It’s not too late to pick up your Christmas goodies here, provided you run: but don’t push, ladies: Santa’s still making his naughty and nice list…
Holly Daze $1195L, Snow Miser $1295L, Heat Miser $1295L - Kayliwulf Kingdom
SINTIMACY Revisited – Confidence and a Catsuit
Istephanija Munro of SINTIMACY contacted me the other day with regards her new Asian Catsuit Reloaded, which is a remake of her original design. RL has been hectic and I already had a few things queued for review, so I kept the box sealed until I was good and ready to write about it. Just as well, as the second I tried this on I was itching to share.
I always feel sexy in a catsuit, but this one really wowed me. The mandarin collar supports the sleeveless bodice, the latex covered in an oriental floral print, edged in black for neat lines. Almost the entire front of the suit is cut open, a dome above the breasts slatted with dark bands, a central line running down beneath the cups and splitting diagonally to either side in an attention-grabbing frame. The cut continues completely open, joining just shy of the crotch; purple blends to black around the hips, the pattern steadfast on the long gloves.
The back of the suit is similarly cut and covered, although the overlaid lattice runs further down before peeling open. The latex shimmers across the buttocks – those highlights are just divine – and you’ll notice shaded florals to the backs of the legs that start to blossom into colour as you move your eyes around to the front once more. Through the lances of light on the thighs, the pattern becomes visible from the shade, decorating much of the leg before fading to black around the hems. The ankle-breaking high stilettos are included with this set, and do feature skin tight legs with matching Asian theme.
I should note that Istephaija mentioned a possible seaming issue between the upper and lower layer on some shapes, although I have to say that on the few I tested, the seams were flawless here for me: the only issues I noticed were on the sides, and this was due to the pattern matching rather than any alignment issues.
I was also sent a fun set called ‘Confidence’ that comes with more options than I can get into this review, although I’ve taken a few shots to give you some ideas. The set comes with various skirt, pants, shirt and jacket layers for you to go mix and match crazy with. If what you get isn’t enough, you can doubtless find dozens of things to put with it anyway as it’s an unfussy design.
The bra comes on the shirt layer, a simple and strapless design that dips to the centre and curves back, sitting above the lower line of the chest to reveal a little extra underneath. The overlayers come as either a cropped vest or full length jacket to complete the outfit as a dress, a high round neckline falling to straps at the back, with a open front that exposes the underlayers or indeed the majority of your cleavage. Edges are clean with distinct borders, the right side of the jacket emblazoned with white glyphs to add interest. A button fastens a few inches above the belly, with glimmering detail on the torso beneath the latex.
The glitch pants are stitched with a small seam centrally to the front and back, rimmed in white in continuation of the style. A spandex thong peeps above the back line; one set of the glitch pants comes complete with this detail, but you can opt for the second glitch set instead which allows you to choose your own undies – to flash or not to flash becomes the question. The glossy skirt moves freely, hemmed appropriately for a seamless finish.
I am also wearing the Body Lotion underlayers which worked with most of my skins (see up close for a better idea), although you will find it doesn’t suit every type. The Confidence set includes an optional layer meant to be worn as an extra to go with the lotion pack: a bikini bottom tanline which really is rather fun, and worked even on my relatively pale skin.
Boots are again supplied with this set – we’re so spoilt – and are of the same dangerously high design, platform soles arcing to tipped and capped metal heel, with latex uppers that sit just beneath the knee, the cuffs edged in white for a sharp contrast with narrow lozenge cut outs to the back.
Confidence retails at $345L, and the Asian Catsuit Reloaded at $320L. Body Lotion can be bought on various layers for $150L.
SINTIMACY boasts a new location since my last review: so make sure you pay a visit.
Kayliwulf Kingdom Latex
Fannie’s facetious challenge that she “pwns” us here at SexySecond when it comes to latex actually comes at a great time because I was just going through my inventory and found a folder from Kayliwulf Kingdom that had somehow escaped my notice when it came in, and I’ve let my inventory spiral out of control so much I’m just pleased it wasn’t lost forever!
Kayliwulf Kingdom is THE store for latex in Second Life. As such, they charge a little more than other latex retailers but if you shop carefully you’ll probably find things you love so much the price becomes irrelevant. This outfit I’m wearing above, for example, is incredible. Its finish is more like an old and rich rubbed leather than latex and I simply love the shine. The outfit is called “Cranberry Sauce” and comes with all that you see here, (boots included) as well as a mesh skirt and prim skirt combo. The corset and bra are separate pieces, so you can mix and match the incredible corset with other outfits. It sells for L$ 1495.
To the left you see another Kayliwulf creation called Dark Shadow. It sells for just L$995 and I think that the design is brilliant. Featuring a finish they call “sticky latex” it really does appear to have that wet and sticky finish, and it’s cut, as a “sportdress” does really appear to be a microskirt when in fact it is simply an undershirt and underpants layer texture. (Gloves and boots are included and come on their own layers). I especially love the texturing on the underpants, as the look of the stretched latex reinforces the illusion of a skirt and also allows for some modesty.
In these pictures I’m wearing a shape from Slider Surgeons. The shape is the modifiable Bast shape, which retails for L$800. Slider Surgeons also sells a non-modifiable version of the shape for L$400, but as these packages don’t come with mesh dress shapes I don’t recommend the non mod version at all. (In fact I recommend never buying a non-mod shape unless it comes in several versions, and only then if you absolutely have to have that look). I combined the shape with an older X2 Hyperfusion skin and hair from ETD.
