Designing Women: Isobel DeSantis and Constanza Volare

Posted by Isobel DeSantis in General, News, Shows & Events

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

Erin go Bragh!

Posted by Isobel DeSantis in Casual wear, General, New releases, Shoes

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

St Patrick’s Day

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!

ALCHEMY - Spring is definitely closer on this side of the planet!!!

Posted by Constanza Volare in Ballgowns, Day Wear, Evening Wear, General, New releases

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.

Sincerity

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.

Celestial

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.

Inspiration

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.

Serene

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.

Oceanic

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

(Angels) Remarkable Release - still 12 hours left for 50% off

Posted by Isobel DeSantis in Evening shoes, General, New releases, News, Shoes

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

As I said I would be posting some more images of the clothes I’ve been making:)

Also check out the shoes that go with them!

This is Star. Called it like that cause it has the glittery fabric at the top and bottom. Check out the shoes too!:) Izzy did a FAB job making some nice and delicate shoes to go with it. Both shoes and dress are available in more colours:D.

Flashback!

Posted by Constanza Volare in General

Hello everyone:) Im just starting to write today about whats been happening at Alchemy Angels all these months we haven’t had a blog hehe.

I must say that when I got to SL the first thing that caught my eye was fashion and decided then that I wanted to be part of it:).

Isobel was the first person I met in world and she helped me get out of the embarrassing situation of not being able to stop dancing hehe. I’m sure we have all experienced it at one time or the other:P. After a long time of wandering around our own ways we got in contact again and decided to set up a shop together.

I must confess it took me a while to get the hang of making clothes. I think it’s something you never stop learning about:).

A special thank you to Natalia from Sirena’s for her awsome tutorials. That really helped a lot:D.

Ill add some images of some of my past creations during the week.
