Right Here and Now

Look around, there's no one but you and me

Right here and now, the way it was meant to be

There's a smile on my face, knowing that together everything that's in our way

We're better than all right 

~Lifehouse "Between the Raindrops"

With a liquid gaze, these Gray Brown eyes are sure to reflect your inner spirit.  Included in this gift from Amacci are two sizes and an optional eye sparkle to give your eyes that special glimmer.  As part of Fifty5 Thursday, POM's Sage Peplum mesh strapless mini is an affordable addition to your wardrobe.  I love the flare of the top over the sleek mini skirt, which is a perfect length.  I've hesitated to blog Fifty5 Thursday items in the past because they were only available for such a short period of time.  In 2013, sale items for Fifty5 will last through the weekend, yay!  So, if you like this mini dress, you still have time to visit Piece of Mind Designs.  Check out the Fifty5 Thursdays web page to see the other items available today and tomorrow.

I can always tell when I see someone wearing a Laqroki skin because they have a luminous glow that is just so lovely, and Ebba in peach is no exception.  Although this skin is not inexpensive, it comes with five different make up options and is well worth every penny.  Here, I have embellished Ebba's soft glow with Opal Lipcolor in Matrix and Miss Vanity Eyeshadow in soft brown, both from Mock Cosmetics.  To showcase my lovely Amacci eyes, I also added Mozz tattoo layer lashes.

Finally, with side-swept bangs and a flowing mane that cascades down my shoulders, Capture, from Magika adds a feminine touch to complete my look.  A special feature that hair from Magika offers is a color change HUD which gives you the option of selecting from a color pack of twenty five (yup, 25!) textures.

Perfectly Purple Tunic

 Something about her eyes or voice has always suggested the hint of a free spirit... 

~ Jeff Greenfield

I'm a free spirit on the beach in LouLou & Co.'s Mojo Tunic from Perfect Wardrobe.  Featuring a plunging neckline, which leads to a gathered, fitted midsection and a loose skirt in a soft purple tone, this mesh dress echoes the feel of hippie days.  Mojo is also available in brown for a limited time at Perfect Wardrobe.

I'm wearing another Belleza gift skin called Elle BR SK upon which I have layered a Miss Vanity Eyeshadow with Lashes in soft brown (available for a very limited time on the counter at Mock Cosmetics in multi color packs for only 30L), May LipColor in [twine] (free tester from Mock Cosmetics) and tattoo layer lashes from Mozz Cosmetics.  My eyes are a gift from Poetic Colors called moon - autumn dark.  I'm not sure if these are still available, but there is a nice set of eyes in the subscriber at Poetic Colors and a pair of free eyes in the back of the store.  My hair is one of my first hair purchases ever called Tobylyn from Damselfly.

I've accessorized my outfit with a freebie from Burroughs Jewelry called Sunara necklace.  The neat thing about jewelry from Burroughs is you can use the HUD to completely customize the beads, geodes, leather and metal to perfectly coordinate with your outfit. 

The Details:
Tunic:  from LouLou & Co. at Perfect Wardrobe (90L)
Skin:  Elle BR SK from Belleza  (group gift - fee to join)
Eyeshadow:  Miss Vanity in soft brown from Mock Cosmetics  (30L limited time offer)
LipColor:  May in Twine from Mock Cosmetics (free tester)
Lashes:  Tattoo Layer from Mozz Cosmetics (150L)
Eyes:  autumn moon dark from Poetic Colors (gift)
Necklace:  Sunara from Burroughs Jewelry (free)

Siren's Song

Mingling musically with the crashing of the waves along the shore and the call of the gulls, he caught a faint echo of the siren's song.  Her golden scales glistening in the sun beckoned him, and he could not resist her enchanting beauty.  Clad in this Nereida Mermaid - Goldfish Edition, you too will possess the alluring appeal of a temptress from the sea.  Included in this gift are the bracelets, belly ornament, mermaid belt and bubbles, as well as a crown I chose not to wear in these pictures. 

I had to show a close up of the flattering mermaid top complete with softly gathered trim and pearls.  Ultra feminine, sheer fins add a touch of grace.
