Some people just have a presence that’s hard to ignore yet even harder to put in words. Today’s model, Ariel Painter is one such person. As soon as I saw her pictures for this section, I was struck by how stately she looks, and with a presence to rival Picasso’s muses, I’m sure she’ll have a great career ahead. Here are a few of her looks…
First look
Ariel looks drop dead gorgeous in this black, drop sleeve dress with lace detail on the neckline, recreating classic Hollywood glamour with blond curls in this dramatically lit portrait of hers. The fit and flare silhouette accentuates her curves beautifully.
Second look
A closer shot from the same shoot highlights her pretty features enhanced with makeup. The slightly tilted head staring ahead at some distant point in space, with soft curls flying around, conjures up the feeling of watching a still shot from a 1920’s classic.
Third look
Time to move outdoors; Ariel poses here sitting on top of a rock with the green background contrasting well with her black chiffon dress. The simple LBD with the sweetheart neckline and contrasting white cap sleeves looks complete in itself, with no need for jewelry, really.
Fourth look
By now you must have realized Ariel loves to dress up in black. This dress of hers is the perfect holiday dress, all shimmery, and the velvet looks comfy for the cold months. To play up the festivities, Ariel has gone bold with the makeup as well, with bright blue eye shade going all the way up to her eyebrows and a dark lip color; after all, it’s for Christmas.
Fifth look
The blonde goes brunette…and she manages to sizzle even more! A quick change of hair color, some dramatic contouring and mustard eyes, and Ariel is virtually unrecognizable. The fitted, full sleeved lace mini dress with the embellished neckline shows off her assets to good effect, and the hair jewelry frames her face in an edgy, hipster chic, sort of a way.
Sixth look
Time to add a bit of color… Ariel adds a fiery final touch with this unusual combination that somehow works well, and the makeup gives her that fierce feline look that totally compliments the fur jacket.
Thanks Ariel for sharing your pictures with us, here’s hoping you’ll share more fun looks with us soon.
