Sahar in Paisley

I was lucky enough to tap the MM board at Wow Skins and won Sahar... a complete avatar.  Here I am showing you Sahar in Natural which has a gentle, romantic beauty.  The package also includes Sahar in Day Make Up and Soire Make Up as well as the Sahar shape and clothing, not shown.  The only additions I've made to Sahar are Simatpico eyeliner in brown black from Mock Cosmetics and Mysteria meshes from Gaeline Cosmetics.  My paisley dress is FA Creations' Paisley Mesh Cross Halter dress.  This long, formal gown has a firey warmth which is sure to please.  My customizable mesh ballet flats from Meli Imako are well worth the 200L price.  These flats are easy to tint in a multitude of colors; they are definitely a fashion staple of mine!  Finally, my hairstyle is Rashida in toast from Truth Hair. 

The Details:
Skin:  Sahar from WOW Skins (0L MM Prize)
Eyes:  Sunrise Eyes in Deep Incan Gold from Ikon (150L)

W.O.W. Effect - Pure Rapture!

Meet Cindy, the November group gift skin from W.O.W. Skins.  With reddish brows, a faint dusting of freckles across the bridge of her nose, and strawberry lips, she possesses a fresh, girl-next-door beauty.  All I added for this shot were Mysteria mesh lashes from Gaeline Cosmetics and softly draping Tomorrow hair from Magika. 

Dalila is another group gift still available at W.O.W. Skins.  A clear skinned, suntanned beauty, she is sure to please.  Again, the only thing I added to accent the skin are Gaeline Cosmetics' Mysteria mesh lashes and Tomorrow hair from Magika.  My top is part of Rapture, a mini dress which is available as part of the sixty linden weekend from Sassy.  I love the all-over sheer lace embellishment and sexy trim on this dress.  Here, I've chosen to combine the top with Alessandra Beltless Leather Pants from Alessandra Skins and Fashion.

In addition to Dalila and Cindy, there are other previous group gifts still to scoop up at W.O.W. Skins.  Although there is a fee to join this group, the gifts are generous and gorgeous.

Amal is the Autumn Hunt prize awaiting your discovery at W.O.W. skins.  If you locate the hunt icon, she can be yours for only 5L.  Amal features fair, creamy skin unadorned with make up.  Again, I added Mysteria mesh lashes, but otherwise, applied no make up so the natural beauty of Amal can shine through.

The rest of the skins on this post are part of a special hunt going on at W.O.W. Skins.  I don't know how long they will be available, so if you like these, don't delay.  Hidden throughout the store, you can find the following skins, one set of eyes and lipsticks.  Each of these items are currently set to sale for 10L!  You have to hunt through the store to find them, but honestly, it did not take me long at all to locate them all.  For these pictures, I kept the pose and the lighting the same so you could compare the skin tones.  The only thing added to each skin were Mysteria Mesh Lashes.  The blue eyes are from W.O.W. Skins, the green are from Ikon.

Sugar & Cyanide

First, before I move on to today's freebie outfit, I had to show you a close up view of my Miss Vanity Eyeshadow with Lashes [peacock] which is available in a variety of colors for a short time at Mock Cosmetics for only 30L.  Don't wait on this one, or you will pay full price for this gorgeous combination.  Over my lips, I am wearing Crema LipColor in Bellini also from Mock Cosmetics.  My skin is Amar in milk from WOW Skins.  The complete avatar was a Midnight Mania prize that I won awhile ago, but I am just wearing the skin here.  I love the sexy mole just above the corner of my mouth!  I have added Mysteria mesh lashes to frame my Sunrise Eyes in light steel blue from Ikon.  My gorgeous tresses are a new release from Magika called Tomorrow and are available both on the Marketplace and the in-world store.  This customizable Basti necklace in black is an older purchase from Pepper. 

Leanne is the current group gift at Sugar & Cyanide.  With soft, blue tones, half length sleeves and an asymmetrical hemline which shows off your sexy legs, this mesh dress is sure to please!  Here, I have chosen to pair it with Goshi Pumps in Navy from MStyle.  These shoes are currently on sale for 50% off.  They are my favorite pair of high heels, and I think I now own just about every color they come in!

 

As soon as I saw Daria from D!va Hair at Collabor88, I knew she was destined for my inventory.  This casual, sideswept updo with a knot on the side can be dressed up with a color change ribbon as I have done here, or worn plain without the bow.  I love the way soft tendrils of hair escape and frame my face in this hairstyle.  My Hyperion necklace is from LouLou & Co. and I love the way its small bow echoes the bow in Daria.  For this photo, I am wearing Chloe Tan 11 from Belleza which is not free, but it's my favorite skin.  I have layered Miss Vanity Eyeshadow with lashes in soft brown over the skin.  My eyes are Sunrise Eyes in Light Green from Fashism (now Ikon).  I've also added Mysteria mesh eyelashes from Gaeline Cosmetics.

While you are at Sugar and Cyanide picking up the group gift, see if you can find the Womenstuff Hunt Icon.  (It's not hard to find!)  Inside the hunt prize, you will find this casual outfit which is perfect for brisk late fall weather.  It includes the warm Alexandria jacket, shirt, leggings and the S&C ankle boots which have a cute studded detail.

Sweet or Tart?

For a limited time, you can find this Sweet Tart Tartan Orange Plaid Tank on the counter at Prism.  White ribbon trim is a perfect accent to the autumn colors in this top.  My skin in this photo is from [Aura] and is called Briar - Starlight - Honey - breast option which I picked up at The Knitting Circle Rummage Sale.  I have layered some gifts from Mock Cosmetics over the lovely tones of this skin:  Dark Kiss Lipsmacker and Crema Lip Color Light Rose.  The group is not free to join, but the gifts are generous and frequent.  My Spark hair in Blonde 07 from [Elikatira] goes beautifully with the fair tone of the skin.  To finish the look, I am wearing Deep Hazel Horizon eyes from Ikon framed with Diva lashes from Wow.
