“Honeytrap”
Burlesque Couture for Halloween
by !dM deviousMind
======
•

An all time classic for Halloween or Carneval is of course the bee costume with its wide range from hot to sweet. Our devious bee would of course wrap her body into those sexy stripes in latex form. With a lot of playfulness and let’s not forget sting – so definitely go hot *winks*! Considering all that, it was easy to decide on “Honeytrap” as our 3rd costume release at deviousBeauty for Halloween 2011 – bee Burlesque!

This illustrated costume consists of a variety of different items and clothing layers, to allow for utmost flexibility when styling your avatar. The glossy latex corset comes with attachments for underbust ruffles and different options for a little ruffle skirt around its bottom seam. Combine it with tape x-pasties, or add a slightly sheer honeycomb latex top with 1/2 g sleeves and the matching honeycomb hotpants, garter and stockings. Or skip the corset completely and rather go with a little ruffle miniSkirt?

Aside for many more bees to attach to chest, garter or buzzing around those frills, the set includes fingerless black gloves or striped armwraps with matching ruffles at wrists and upper arms, and comes of course with all your standard bee parts: antennas, stinger and wings in different versions. To make it complete, the costume includes some honey pots with more bees as head dress, sculpted ankle boots with ruffles, straps and stripes, and a gorgeously sculpted latex posture collar.

Those attachments that may require resizing can be adjusted by touch through a resize & stretch menu. Please see included notecard for details.

As well included is an UPDATE CHECK to keep you up to date with every piece of this outfit – please read all information at the end of the content listing.

You should find the following things in your inventory (this is an insanely long list this time):

“When worlds collide…”

“VoodooDoll”
Burlesque Couture for Halloween
by !dM deviousMind
======
•

For Halloween Season 2011, we’d like to take you to a journey to where our world meets that of the other side. Our new costume spins around the idea of voodoo, one of the major religions of Haiti, Africa and a few other parts of the world. “Vodou” has come to be associated in popular culture with the lore of evoking dark powers, zombies and of course the use of “voodoo dolls” to harm others – all rather fitting themes for Halloween, although those concepts are to the most rather far from the religion’s true nature. Likely this misconception is connected to the deep belief in spirits and other aspects that are alien and scary to us: Ritual dances, tribal fetishes and participants in rituals becoming “possessed by the spirits” come to mind. It’s a long read if you’re interested in the history, and we’d suggest you to take some time and read into it :)

Anyhow – it’s Halloween. And anything that is scary is good for this time of year! So wrap yourself into some mysticism and throw those feathers and skulls on for a night where worlds collide.

This illustrated outfit consists of a variety of different items and clothing layers, to allow for flexibility when styling your avatar. And of course with a touch of burlesque if you so choose! The ragged leopard skirt comes in two versions, one plain, and one with highly detailed voodoo paraphernalia like bird skulls, pouches, lots of feathers and the infamous voodoo doll tagged to the belt. Wear it with a little bit of leapard fur nothingness, a richly detailed corset with attaching bone ties, or a red top tied to the tribal neckpiece which comes in 3 different versions from more plain to extravagant fancy with long pheasant feathers. Or simply burlesque – with tiny skull pasties ;) And to make it complete, the costume includes body paint on tattoo layers for face and body, a richly detailed fetish headDress, ritual staff and bangles for wrists and arm bands.

Those attachments that may require resizing can be adjusted by touch through a resize menu. Please see included notecard for details.

As well included is an UPDATE CHECK to keep you up to date with every piece of this outfit – please read all information at the end of the content listing.

Shoes are NOT part of the costume – worn for the ad are different releases by other SL creators.

“Little Lenore” **WHITE**
- or -
“Black Lenore” **BLACK**
Burlesque Couture for Halloween v2.0.1
by !dM deviousMind
======
•

Right after Halloween follows another holiday to allow you to bring out those gorgeous costumes: El Dia de los Muertos, the day of the dead. Predominantly celebrated with brightly colored street decorations and costumes in Mexico, the traditions of this holiday is spread into the US and carried by Mexican migrants all over the world. So we’d like to join in the celebration with our own little corpse bride inspired neo-burlesque creation! (And we’re pretty sure some of the possible costume combinations with this set would be likely a bit too burlesque for the original holiday – but it had to give you some options for the stage, right? *winks*)

This illustrated costume consists of a variety of different items and clothing layers, to allow you utmost flexibility when styling your avatar. Aside from base clothing pieces like stockings, pantyhose and satin panties, you will find little skull pasties to go with a frilly ornatmented corset, or if you prefer more covered up, a bodice/corset combination with roses, bones and skulls giving the perfect finish. And of course with a tutu inspired bridal skirt and veil, 3 different options of sleeves and attachments for the garter clips. And to make it all perfect, 4 different shades of a traditional facemakeup!
For Halloween 2011, “Little Lenore”s darker sister “Black Lenore” was released. We’ve updated the costume to version 2.0.1 and included a second attachment option with contrasting skulls, and of course some Halloween-appropriate bit of blood and gore spread over layers and the wedding dress pieces. (Please see full list of content and properties in the following – the face makeup requires a tattoo layer compatible viewer. Shoes are NOT part of the costume – worn for the ad are different releases by other SL creators.)

Those attachments that may require resizing can be adjusted by touch through a resize menu. Please see included notecard for details.

I’ve been very hesitant in the attempt to conquer my huge inventory mess. Cause it is REALLY messy. And I’m sure there is about 30k items that could as well be deleted, copy of a copy of a copy of a copy type prims from building – you get the idea. While working on a costume and desperately trying to find stuff in the mad folder-structures, I ran across this build, which was a possible option for (*chanimations FruitFetish! #07 before the prop turned Kiwi ;-)

At any rate – would be a shame to let it just rot in inventory unseen, so I’ll make it a groupGift :-) Make sure to stop by deviousMind and get yours at (*chanimations or deviousBeauty!

<3 Chandra

PS: The summer costume is finished too!! Well… almost.. still boxing it up ;-) So likely tomorrow :-D

…with lot’s of Love!

I would like to send a special big Kiss out to the grid to everybody who’s been supporting us throughout the time ever since it all started with a little poses-in-a-photostudio venture way back when in Abraham sim… So much has happened since then, and we’ve met so many new people from all over the world in you! We truely appreciate every single feedback, compliment, question and notecard, all your gorgeous entries to our photocontests and beyond all that: YOU!

As a big “Thank you!” for sticking with us for another year, we’d like you to have a little present through our update group, so make sure to get it in case your messages capped in-world!

Wishing you all a wonderful day!

Oh and because I’m sure you’d like to know what it is, here it comes:

“Everybody wants her…”

“The Queen of Hearts”
(*chanimations and deviousMind GROUPGIFT
Valentine’s Day 2011
======
•

It’s again that time of the year… and yes, (unlike last year) this time we go full on red too, while trying to make the present as timeless as anyhow possible!

“The Queen of Hearts” photoset is both our Valentine’s present to our update group, and the reason why all official Valentine’s realeases will be released just VERY short before the actual 14th this year – it kept pushing my creativity from one thing into the next into the next and kept me quite busy these days!

We’ve added the present as well to our “Queen of Hearts” couture release as little add-on gift to inspire your creativity :-)

The gift set 2011 includes the following photography props and poses:

POSES and PROPS (no mod/no transfer):
——————————————-

Poses:
• (*queenOfHearts,
• (*queenOfHearts (alternative),
• (*queenOfHearts (alternativeBig),
• (*queenOfHearts_fingerA,
• (*queenOfHearts_fingerA (alternative),
• (*queenOfHearts_fingerB,
• (*queenOfHearts_fingerB (alternative),
• (*queenOfHearts_fingerC

Poses come in multiple variations so you will hopefully find one that matches your avatar shape best. If nothing works for you, try adjusting the length of arms and width of shoulders on your shape, usually that will help!

Attach:
• (*chanimations – “Queen of Hearts” redRose,

Rezz:
• (*chanimations – “Queen of Hearts” (fullBody) – 3 (+3) PRIMS,
• (*chanimations – “Queen of Hearts” (upperBody) – 4 (+3) PRIMS,
• (*chanimations “Queen of Hearts” multiPosestand (optional) – 4 PRIMS

As usually, sit on the rezzed card prop, and pose-menu appears when clicking the box again. The poses can be adjusted to your avatar size by chatting /1a in local chat while you are sitting on the prop. Alternatively, activate the included gesture and use F10 as Hotkey to access the adjustment menu, or go old fashioned with the posestand (responds to /1 hide and /1 show)

CARDS:
———

One allows you to go for full body shots, while the other will ‘cut off’ the lower part of the body to simulate a playing card style design. For both cards, try to take your picture as frontal 90° as possible, so that the background is evenly square and not distorted by perspective.

For the upperBody card, you can keep alpha-textures attachments to achieve the intented effect, a full non-transparent prim will not go invisible though, so you will need to detach those types of prims for the proper display.

TEXTURES:
———–

All textures have been created by Chandra Meehan for (*chanimations and deviousMind. Please inform us if you find them used by anybody not connected to us and help protect original content.

“La Chouette du Mardi Gras”
Burlesque Couture and Carnival Costume
by !dM deviousMind
======
•

After last year’s great response to our lucky chair gift, many were asking if they could rather buy the full costume than camping the chairs, which lead to the decision to release it 2011 as “La Chouette du Mardi Gras” as well at deviousBeauty! Same as in 2010, the costume will be also available for free through our lucky chairs (during February/March) at deviosuMind sim, split in many different boxes to collect, only unlike last year if you are not willing to wait and tempt your luck, you can pick the shortcut throughout all year at deviousBeauty! :-D

No matter which route you choose: be prepared for lots of sequins! Lots of feathers! And not to forget, a large number of pieces included for many combination options to customize your look to your liking.

Inspired by a mixture of global carneval traditions to celebrate the end of winter and chase those deamons away, you’ll find an eclectic mix of burlesque couture with samba and Carnaval do Brazil in the back feather pieces, traditional Mardi Gras symbols in long beads necklaces and fleur-de-lis ornaments, and of course masks as you would encounter at the Carnevale di Venezia – the owl-like features of these is what gave the costume set its name.

This illustrated costume consists of a variety of different items and clothing layers, to allow you utmost flexibility when styling your avatar. Aside from the base clothing pieces like gloves, golden fishnet thigh highs or full pentihose option, sequins panties or sequinsShorts paired with a sexy netTop, you will find two different styles of the main costume pieces as featherWheel or sequinsFlowers and matching to each, differnt types of ornament attachment for the corset and stockings. And to round it all off, two types of hairflowers and three differnt mask options, and long beads necklaces as alternative to the corset ornaments (please see full list of content in the following).

Those attachments that may require resizing can be adjusted by touch through a resize menu. Please see included notecard for details.

The store version of the costume includes as well an UPDATE CHECK to keep you up to date with every piece of this outfit – please read all information at the end of the content listing.

The **MARDI GRAS** color of this set is kinda the prototype of “La Chouette du Paradis”, which you can find with slightly different content in 8 different colors at deviousBeauty: **BLACK**, **WHITE**, **RED**, **ROSE**, **PINK**, **BLUE**, **TEAL**, **PURPLE** and if you like them all in one, as an **ALL COLORS** pack! (The colors are corresponding to all of our past (*chanimations feather props&pose set releases)

You should find the following things in your new couture box, each in the color corresponding to your purchase:
