Ciao Readers!
I'm wearing September's fabulous group gift for 7 Deadly Skins called, "Cicely". It is a stunner for sure! I'm showing it as is with no additional make-up added on. 7 Deadly Skins is one of my favorite designers of skins. Izara Allen - Zuta (izara.zuta) is wonderfully talented in achieving the subtleties needed for a beautiful skin. She is adept at adding just the right amount of shading and highlighting so that the final result is natural and just gorgeous! I've been a fan of the quality for quite some time so it's my pleasure on this post to show you yet another reason I'm a fan of 7DS. The group is one of the best on SL! It's well worth the small fee and to quote from the group description, "Here are a few reasons why YOU should JOIN / STAY in the 7DS group!" - NEW group gift for male and female EVERY month! - MM boards for GROUP only - Lucky Chairs for group ONLY - Sales/discounts for GROUP - Weekend sales item GROUP only To join just copy and paste the group key in local chat: Group key -- 18e33f5d-dbbe-295c-52a8-9e05930bbfef A skin like this deserves to be shown off so I'm wearing "Seduction" by Prey. You can grab this at the main store or on Marketplace. For less than a cup of coffee you can own this sexy ensemble. Mix and match to stretch your options, using the gloves to compliment evening gowns or wear the bra with a mini skirt for a unexpected, hot club look. That's what I love about Prey, the fact that the pieces can be worn with what you already own to make lots of combinations. You know how I love to stretch the wardrobe! My shoes are by N-Core called, "Chantel" they offer a HUD with 14 color choices and options to wear either lace or fishnet. Versions for Maitreya, Slink and Belleza mesh bodies are included. I think they show off my lovely skin and go perfectly with the outfit. My hair is a very feminine style by Truth called, "Lady". The ribbon accessory holds up a jumble of loose curls with a Stylist HUD included so you can make changes to the look. I'm all set and off to take on the day! See you all soon! Fashionably Yours... xox Arianna

Dear Readers: As this month wraps up I hope you've had an opportunity to get over to Designer Showcase. You still have time to pick up some of the absolutely wonderful offerings for August. I'm wearing the "Bouquet" gown in violet by PurpleMoon Creations. It's available for a few more days at this round of Designer Showcase. My manicure is called, "Retro" by IP Nails and you can still pick it up at SWANK until the end of the month. I've chosen to wear my hair simply, pulling it back into a ponytail with a twist. The style is called, "Akora" by Emo-tions. It's not new but a definite favorite of mine. I've added the final touch of a "Butterfly Crown" by Evie's Closet. It's a wonderful compliment to the gown. You certainly don't need much jewelry for this look but I did add a pair of "Teardrop Pearl Earrings" by Caroline's Jewelry. I was very pleased with the final result! Don't wait another minute be sure you make your rounds before these events close for the month. Happy Shopping! Fashionably Yours... xox Arianna Styling Credits:

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention a favorite accessory of mine this month called, "The Abigail Headband" by Petit Chat. It's available now only until August 30th at The Chapter Four. It comes with a HUD that offers 8 options on 5 parts and of course it's 100% original mesh done to perfection by Trinity Yazimoto, the talented designer behind Petit Chat. I love the delicate slender strands of silk with sweet pearls in contrast to the naturally shaped stones set with gems, all strung through the center metal piece. Don't miss this one ladies! My dress was a special weekly offering from Prey, limited to only 100 copies, the "Agatha Dress and Shoes" are a new go-to of mine! If you happened to have missed the "Agatha" Prey weekly special let this be a lesson to you, don't miss another one! It just so happens in the last photo below I'm wearing the current weekly special! It's the bold, hot "Junky Jewelry Metal Choker" at only $50L until September 3rd. It's been a very busy month for Prey as they just opened a brand new store, which has gotten rave reviews. Unfortunately I had to miss the opening due to RL commitments but as of August 26th it's open to the public. Be sure to head over and check it out! Happy Shopping! Fashionably Yours... xox Arianna Bonjour!
My outfit today is courtesy of LUXE Paris. It's called "Mondrian Dress and Handbag" and it is available at SWANK. Offered in standard mesh sizes with alpha as well as versions for the most popular mesh bodies, this artistic dress and purse fits right in with this month's theme of Retromania. I added this dashing black hat from Solidea Follies and matching bangles from RYCA Jewelry. Struzzi has me covered with this sexy little stiletto pump and all that was left for me to do was apply some killer red lipstick. I also tried out the "Olivia" set of poses by Glitter Poses, now available at SWANK. They are so fun and unique! Dressed to kill and ready to go, I implore you not to let this round of SWANK slip by without a visit. There are so many goodies your head will spin! See you there! Fashionably Yours... xox Arianna Hello All! Today I'm wearing yet another find from this round of SWANK. This delightful dress is from Selene Creations and is called, "Gloria". I love the deep cut back trimmed with a pronounced ruffle that goes all the way around to the front. The insignia just adds to the retro feel and makes it a must have. I've added braided leather jewelry from Beauty Code and delightful thigh-high braided strappy sandals from Essenz. My hairdo is a swept up simple updo with a thin ribbon from Phoenix, very Grecian looking I think. All in all another great look and now I'm off to start my day! See you soon!

If you haven't had a chance to swing by SWANK yet don't wait another minute. This month is Retromania and the offerings are amazing. I had the pleasure of modeling this little number called, "Shrimpton" in berry by BYRNE at the SWANK preview fashion show and I love it. It's offered in several colors in case berry isn't your cup of tea. Something right out of Mad Men with a pencil skirt and simple box top with sexy cutouts. Even the earrings are included! If I wore this to the office would Don Draper notice me? Something tells me yes....so don't delay, head over to SWANK and grab yours now! Fashionably Yours... xox Arianna Hi Everyone! I'm wearing the "Maia Ruffle Bikini Top & Bottom" by Prism, which includes a HUD for 4 different fabric choices on both. Adorning my ankles are the "Captive Ankle Chain" by Petit Chat available now at the Darkness Event. My manicure and pedicure are courtesy of Nailed It and called "Retromania" available now at SWANK. I've included a photo of the HUD so you can see all the options available for you. Also at SWANK are the lovely and delicate "Soraya Earrings" by IT! To do justice to such a gorgeous bikini my hair had to be something special so I'm wearing "Calania" by EMO-tions. A beautiful updo with long curled tendrils framing the face and beautiful flowers tucked across the top and down the sides. A very fitting look to do justice to this striking swimsuit! Be sure not to miss any of the goodies I've brought you today! Till next time... Fashionably Yours... xox Arianna Styling Credits:

This time of year walking through the garden and cutting fresh flowers is one of my favorite things to do. Unfortunately I can't keep a garden year round in my real life but SL allows me to have one whenever I want. Strolling through the picturesque, winding paths I'm wearing the "Quiana Maxi Dress" by Prism. It comes with a HUD that offers 4 fabric choices, all rich with vibrant color and sophisticated prints. I love the one I chose to show you which has shades of gold, orange, green, cranberry and brown. The empire waist and handkerchief hem add to the very fetching look of this dress. With it I'm wearing "Tabitha" a heel in beige from Lindy's Shoes, available now at Designer Showcase. I love the belt buckle detail across the front. They are available for Slink and Maitreya mesh feet. To go with the wild animal print of my dress I chose the "Jeweled Snake Cuff" by Cult of Belgar. The coiled snake has gems on it's body and head as well as eyes. Click on the bracelet for the options menu and change the metal and gem colors to suit you. It's a fantastic statement piece to add to your jewelry wardrobe. I'm also wearing large, chunky "Gold Hoop Earrings" by RYCA Jewelry. They match the bracelet well and I love the size. My long tresses are in loose waves and drawn to one side in a low ponytail. It's a hairdo called, "Lund" by Tukinowaguma. They have done their usual outstanding job with this delightful and natural looking hairstyle. My manicure and pedicure are compliments of IP Nails called, "Dark Manicure" done for The Darkness Event. Now I'm headed inside to arrange my cut flowers into a beautiful bouquet. See you all soon!

The dog days of August are upon us and I'm spending as much time as possible at the beach. Today, I had to show you my latest favorite beach attire found this month at Designer Showcase. It's the outfit called, "LouLou" by FurtaCor. It includes the shorts and top pictured below as well as the purse, sandals and even the jet ski! The shorts and top come with a HUD offering 10 print and 9 solid color choices for both the top and bottom. It also has 10 color choices for the sandals. Versions for everything are available for Slink, Belleza and Maitreya mesh bodies. Considering all you get this is a must have for your shopping list and a great value! I will get plenty of use mixing and matching the top and shorts both together, as well as with other items in my wardrobe and I imagine I'll get lots of mileage from these great summer sandals. I haven't been able to stop using this very unique purse since the photo shoot, it's a fantastic bag for the season. I didn't have to add much to the outfit but I did accent the sandals with "Instinct Ankle Belts" by Petit Chat. They are available now at this round of Fashion Dazzle until August 26th. I opted for the fatpack, which offers a ton of variety for these handy little accents that will definitely dress up your ankles this summer. The fatpack comes with full HUD (8 options for buckle + 8 for the strap). I found these delightful little wedges of "Watermelon Earrings" by Imeko on Marketplace and they go perfectly with the ensemble. Modeling can make a girl hungry and I found this very tasty looking "Watermelon" prop and poses by Touchic on Marketplace. Lastly, I am wearing a fabulous long, side swept hairstyle called, "Balek" by TKW. The very loose, tousled waves are well suited for the beach and for some jet skiing when you are ready. Be sure not to miss any of these wonderful items! I'm off for now, till next time... Fashionably Yours... xox Arianna Styling Credits:
