All systems go (thank you Phil)! We’re looking forward to a FUN evening. Here’s the slurl again: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Hyacinth%20Island/165/70/27
Connie and I are getting excited - well ok, I’m getting excited and I’m pretty sure Connie is too! :) Our Fashion Show is TONIGHT at 6pm SLT! We’ve rehearsed (yes, I NEED rehearsals to walk in a straight line! If you don’t believe me, ask Connie lol), decided on what we’re wearing and been given some great tips from Jewell and KandieKain of JM Models on how to beat lag. Now it’s time for us to put our Inner Control Freaks aside for a few hours and allow JM to continue the fantastic job they’ve done so far.
They did a wonderful interview with us (separately) and it’s posted here. The pic isn’t of us, it’s of two of the great JM Models - although Connie pointed out that if it had been us, in pose and attitude I would have been the one in red! Very true actually - she has me down pat :)
I’ll post the full invite later, but here’s the slurl and we’d love to see you: AlchemyAngels Fashion Show
Isobel ♥
Due to the problems in Second Life® today, Jewell Munro of JM Models took the sensible, professional decision to postpone our show until next Friday 11 April at 6pm. Connie and I are in full agreement and are very happy to be working with such a great team as JM :)
We’ll post the updated invite shortly and look forward to seeing you all on Friday!
This blog will be used less as Connie and I develop our own blogs, so just a reminder to please keep an eye on Connie’s *Alchemy* blog and my (Angels) one and we hope to get them picked up by Fashionplanet soon :)
Isobel ♥
Hello Everyone!
This post is just to let you all know that from now on I will be posting my new releases on a different blog: http://www.alchemyblog.net/.
This is basically because sometimes I would like to blog about other things and its not fair to Izzy if I do so in a blog that we share!
I have also created a new in-world group (with the subscribe-o-matic system so you wont have to use up your slots). It’s easier for me to manage things that way. The former *AlchemyAngels* group is now only the Angels group so if you were subscribed to that one please come to my store to subscribe on mine!!!
Izzy and I are doing a fashion show together this Saturday 5th of April, here is the invitation, if you have time please come, we will be really happy to see you!!
Thanks very much for all your support, kind words and feedback!!
Lots of Love,
Constanza Volare <3
Hello Everyone!
I apologise for the small release… my Dad was over from Chile last week so I went completely away from my computer for that time! :) We had a great time and now that he is not here the place feels empty:(!!! But theres too much to do to dwell on that! I hope you all had a great easter!! (I’m still munching on chocolate eggs! :P)
I designed this release a couple of weeks ago but it took me ages to get the time to do the posters for it. Speaking of posters, I have also decided to change the look of them a little bit (the ones in the store), mainly because the ones I have now don’t allow me to show variations of skirts in an elegant way in such a narrow space!! lol So if you go in the shop and it looks a bit messy please excuse me but I’m still experimenting with the layouts! (There’s the question of space too!! — it is never enough!)
The basics range will be removed from the store soon too:( I’m trying to keep the lag at minimum so I guess I’ll have to take those items away until I move somewhere bigger!!!!
Ok I’ll show you the new releases shall I? :)
This is “Unique”, as you can see I’ve created 3 skirts for it. From more playful to elegant and sophisticated! The colours of the belts are very fruity! (There are 4 colours to choose from). I want to thank my dear friend Holly McCann for posing for this poster, she looks great!!! The shoes in this picture are from Periquita and the hair from ETD.
Flirty is a 50’s style dress with a twist! With a polka dots texture in 5 colours to choose from and a bright coloured lace combination for each one of them! It also comes with a pencil skirt for a more formal look!! I hope you like it!!! My friend Erpla Prieto posed for this one, I thought she had the perfect look for it!! The shoes are from Periquita also and the hair from TekuTeku.
Well, that’s all for now! Let me know what you think of the new layouts! Feedback is always welcome!:D
Oh! and before I forget I have created an Alchemy group in Flickr for all of you who have pictures of yourselves with Alchemy creations so you place them there for everyone to see!!
Lots of Love!

No that doesn’t mean “don’t spill the Guinness”! According to wikipedia it’s usually translated as “Ireland Forever” but it’s actually a Scottish phrase. Aren’t you glad now that you read this blog? :P
Connie and I have our own translation: “Any excuse for a free gift” so here is our St Patrick’s Day offering, in conjunction with Erpla Prieto of Periquita
Connie has of course designed the cutest dress in the world, complete with apron (which does not mean I’ll be cooking anytime soon), Erpla has made a jaunty, sexy top hat for us and I have actually produced a pair of shoes with sculpty bits!
Everything is free of course and available at both our main stores until midnight SLT on Monday 17th.
Nearly forgot! There are Lucky Hearts still at Angels, filled with shoes from the normal range. I’ll be removing them when the sim to sim Easter Egg Hunt starts next week.
Have a wonderful, happy and fun weekend and …. Erin go Bragh!
♥ Izzy and Connie
Hello Everyone!!!
I apologise for not having written in so long… After moving from London to San Francisco (California baby!!!!) and now finally finding a place and getting some furniture I’m ready to release these new designs! I must confess it took me ages to make some of them because I was literally working on the floor!!! My table finally arrived today and the computer desks from London haven’t arrived yet!!! So trust me, my neck is not happy! I am though, its been a while since I saw the sun shining the way it does here so my spirits have definitely been lifted!
Here are the new creations I’m releasing today, I hope you like them and please feel welcome to give any feedback! Also remember to send pictures of yourself and friends so I can put them on the photo board in the shop!
Sincerity - This elegant ballgown has a nice skirt with subtle layering, it comes in 6 elegant colours. Please let me know if you would like a custom colour made! The skirt comes with the *SS* and non-script version. The jewelery in this image was made by designer Alienbear Gupte.
Celestial - This design was going around my head for ages. One day I finally decided to give it a go and although what was in my head was a bit different, I was quite happy with this result! I made 3 skirts for it a mini skirt (for a sexy look), a short skirt (for a more formal event, like a cocktail), and a ballgown skirt (for a, elegant party). They all come with the *SS* script and the non-script version. The shoes on this image are from Armidi.
Inspiration - This is a really cute dress to welcome the spring. It comes with 2 different skirts, one, like the one in the image, the other is a more bell shaped skirt but also comes down from above the waist. It has 4 different colours to choose from. The shoes on this image are also from Armidi.
Serene - The poised look of this dress says it all, I hope. I thought of a sophisticated, smart and stylish woman when I created it and I hope the results reflect that! The shoes on this image were created by Erpla Prieto, owner of Periquita. This dress comes with another skirt that is the same length but wider than the one in the image, they both come in the *SS* and non-script versions.
Oceanic - This dress was inspired on a day trip to the beach I took the other day. The day was gorgeous and the views were fantastic! I HAD to make something that reminded me of it! I know, it looks a bit kinky o.O, but its also playful and sexy! There are 4 colours to choose from. It comes with the little hat in the picture and also the skirt in the *SS* and non-script version. The shoes on this picture were also made by the owner of Periquita. I showed her the dress a while ago and she told me she had just the shoes to complement it! She will place at my main store later today for a while but you can also find more colours and other designs at her main store.
That’s all for now! I hope you liked the new releases!!! There will be more in a couple of weeks!
Isobel has told me she is working on secret new shoes (I haven’t even seen) so keep your eye on this blog because who knows what surprises she might bring to you soon!!!!!
Thank you all for your support!!!
Lots of Love,
Constanza Volare <3
Our update group and FashCon always get the first notices (join them both at the front of the store) but there’s still time to get your Remarkable shoes at 50% discount in (Angels) main store only until 7pm SLT today (Monday).
The original silver shoe was made for our EFADA contest entry and I’ve now released another 6 colours (including black of course). The delicate lacy pattern matches Alchemy’s Remarkable dress perfectly, and the heel tip gives another flash of colour. The shape is elegant and sophisticated with a slim high (but not too high) heel. No bling on this shoe either.
As you can see from the pic, it also goes with lots of other clothes styles (I’m wearing Alchemy’s Innocence in this one) .. I just love capris with heels! Oh and this pic is the very first one where I tried to be Connie. LOL she’s groaning now, I can hear her! She’s been very patient with me (you missed this exchange - Connie: “You need to get rid of that white border round your shoes” me: “It’s supposed to be there, it’s to light the shoes” Connie: meaningful silence). Well at least we have fun .. and you can laugh at my poster but behind my back please! :)
Don’t forget the beautiful Amor Valentine gift set (see previous post) is still available until February 14th. It’s moved to under the stairs, to make room for Remarkable. And don’t trip over the rose petals on the floor .. well, it just had to be done!
Pics follow and don’t forget, the Remarkable 50% discount is only available at (Angels) main store: http://slurl.com/secondlife/West%20Sunset/208/126/22
Love and hugs

Hello everyone!
Isobel DeSantis, Alienbear Gupte and me have been working on this free outfit for a while now and today it was finally ready for a release!
The dress I designed is very girly and cute! Lots of lace and of course a heart on the waist and on the texture of the skirts… yes skirtS! It comes with 3 different shapes of skirts to make it more versatile, so you better come and get it!!!
Isobel made shoes to match! They are really delicate yet sexy so it gives the outfit a more sultry look!!. Check out the silver hearts hanging from the side and the bow at the back!!! So many scrumptious details!!
Alienbear designed a very cute earring and necklace set to match as well! Its also very feminine and delicate and the prim work, as always with her designs, is outstanding!
Ill add the images below now so you can see it with your own eyes!
Ok I hope you like them! And go and get them!!!!
Lots of love,
Constanza Volare <3
So, after a very stressful end of the year with loads of new things and me needing a holiday like never before, there is finally new releases for you girls!
My holidays gave me the inspiration and energy I needed to start this year:) I also got the chance to meet one of my dear SL friends, Alienbear Gupte. She not only showed me around Hong Kong but also took me for a traditional meal that took away (only a little bit) my fear of the unknown food you can see over there, but also explained about their culture and bought me and my family gifts!!! I’ve promised I’ll send one back (she’s a fan of teddy bears), so Alienbear, don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten!!!
This year I am also moving countries, actually next Friday to be precise, so probably the next release will be a few weeks after that, since probably next week I’ll be totally stressed packing and doing last minute visits!!! argh! lol
Well I guess I’ve bored you long enough with what has been happening in my life lately so I’ll get one with showing you the new releases!
First we have Fantasy, this is a ballgown I made just before going on holidays. It can be used also as a wedding dress. It’s very elegant and delicate. The ribbon on the top comes in 6 colours to choose from. Check out the demo to look at the details on the back:) For this image I have used jewellery made by Alienbear Gupte so go to her shop if you want to get the whole look!
Next in line is Timeless, which is a very elegant dress that comes in 6 vibrant colours. It comes with 2 skirts you can wear individually or at the same time. The necklace is not included but I got it from Tickled Pink.
Timeless also comes with the top and glitchpants in underlayers as well as a long top in the jacket layer and also the underlayers in case you would like to wear it with something else than the skirt.
Destiny is a more everyday outfit. It comes with several layers of the outfit so you can see what suits you best. It also comes with a shorter version of the top in case you would like some tummy showing. This outfit comes in 4 colours for you to choose from:) The belt of this outfit also comes as a separate jacket layer in case you would like to wear it with something else.
Gracious is a cute dress with buttons (I totally love buttons!) on the front and the back and a nice ribbon around the waist with a bow on the back. It comes with 2 skirts (actually the skirt on the poster is the second option). The other one is quite transparenty and silky and very 50s. The top also comes in a longer version to wear without the skirts and in the underwear and jacket layers too.
I’ve also made an outfit called Symphony. It can be either used as a dress or a whole outfit that you can either wear with boots or with the sculpty legs I’ve made for it. The dress is very feminine and the skirt very 50’s. The outfit looks sexier but still elegant! I have also done the top as a jacket and underwear layers and done the same thing with the glitch pants so you have a lot of choices when it comes with matching it with other things!
I have also added some extra colours for the Remarkable dress I released before Christmas so come to the main store to take a look!
Well that’s all for now:) I hope you like what I have done so far and be around for the first week of February cause there is a surprise on its way!
Also remember to send me photos so I can place them in my shop in-world! And don’t hesitate to send me a note if you have any queries, I promise I’ll get back to you as fast as I can!
Lots of Love!!!
Constanza Volare <3
