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.

Eyes:  GrayBrown Eyes from Amacci (0L - gift)

Hucci and HOC Industries

The soft green color of this Hucci P Dot Dress, which is a group gift, suits the muted tones of fall.  Sweet polka dots adorn the sides and sleeves of this fun mini dress.  Here I've paired it with JOSS hair which was a former The Dressing Room find.  The band in the hat coordinates with the dress like they were made for each other.

Here you can see the full length of the dress and.......the most exciting fashion find of the week for me....these Color Change Platform Pumps from HOC Industries.  Not only do these shoes have oodles of color options for each part of the shoe, but if you join their group (which is free), you also have access to group only patterns.  These shoes are not free, but at only 175L for color change shoes, they are a steal!  I love these shoes!!

While I was at Beauty Code, my letter came up on the Lucky Chair and I won this lovely Holly Skin.  The light tone and make up give the skin an elegant feel that is not over done.   While in Mu Shi Dolls, I saw this Temptation Black dress and had to have it.  It's not free, but I really loved the look.  It includes the belt, hoop earrings, and the bangles.

Here is the June Group Gift skin, Tabea, from Beauty Code.  It's still available for you.  I love the tone of the skin and the fact that it comes with an optional cleavage boost, too.  Ever since my first visit to Mu Shi Doll, I wanted this Leo Mini Dress.  It's not free, but I think the straps and the animal print are just so sexy.

Mu Shi Doll still has former gifts out as well.  This is Juni, the group gift from June.  The delicate lace of this mini dress is a sweet pattern and the silver belt is included.  The silver Glitter Hoops earrings are another gift from Beauty Code.  Boots are from Bax and not included.

Limited Edition: Safir from Ashli Designs

Safir from Ashli Designs - Limited Edition - only 30 of this dress will ever be sold in SL (10 in each of three colors).  When I saw the whispery, sparkling fabric, the asymmetric hemline and the flowing sleeves, I knew one of those ten purple dresses had my name on it.  The necklace and earrings you see are included and there is also a shorter version of the dress.  Ten blue and ten brown versions will also be sold.  If you adore this style as I do, hurry over to Ashli Designs because only 4 purple, 4 blue and 3 brown dresses are left.  699L
