More Bunny Kisses

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we return to the CMH Bunny Kisses & Easter Wishes 5 hunt trail, to find more gold foil eggs (flat prim images) with all sorts of special treats inside. There are $1L hunt prizes and $25L -$50L exclusives available, with each designer choosing which prices and how many to offer in their store. I'm really delighted with this round's offerings, and it's always fun to find a bargain on an exclusive version of an outfit or decoration for your home. Follow the landmarks and hints on the Cheeky Monkey website to guide you along the hunt path, good luck and enjoy!

A few days ago I teased that the prize I shared from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. was not their only one, and I would be showing the others soon. Soon = now in this case, LOL, so please take a gander at the $1L EASTER BILBY Tee on the left above, and the $25 EASTER HEART Tee which is being worn on the right side. I know from watching so many animal videos (it helps with my anxiety) that a bilby is a cute marsupial native to Australia, just like our designer here ;) The one on our tee has some pretty colored Easter eggs to cuddle with, and those colors really do pop against the black background. The Easter heart is also filled with eggs, adorned with bows and a furry pair of bunny ears to really bring home that Easter feeling. Both of these are provided on unpacking HUDs that let you choose just the set of sizes you need right now, but I suggest you hold onto that HUD for future reference. There are standard mesh sizes along with eBody Classic, eBody Reborn, Waifu, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body versions. 

CloudNine has a timely treat for us too, a $1L egg each for the guys and gals actually. The ladies' egg holds this charming Womens T-shirt - Peace Be With You, featuring an adorable bunny holding that familiar peace sign pose with her hand/paw. She is dressed quite fashionably too, with a pink bow to match her jacket that made me think Pink Ladies from Grease at first glance :) Love the shades, and the jeans that are not all that different from mine (Delizio marketplace gift) so maybe she and I could hang out and do something casual this weekend. The prize includes Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh body sizes. 

Next we hop over to Psyche's Pstyles and search for their $1L egg containing this lovely Fair Ribbons Dress. I love the way this style gracefully skims along the body, a cozy pleated fit that suits this time of year with slightly warmer temperatures. The ribbons on the fabric are a fun touch that the yellow tied belt really accentuates, like the smaller tie at the neck :) There are sizes for Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Hourglass, Physique, and Reborn mesh bodies, which is an updated set so if you saw this before but didn't grab it because your favorite body size wasn't included, perhaps the update has changed that and you can indulge now. 

Another stop not to be missed on this hunt is The Sissy Bar, where $1L and a little searching for that egg will get you their (TSB) Bunny Kisses and Easter Wishes 5 outfit :) The pale striped t-shirt and overall dungarees with one strap unhooked are each provided in Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizing. That bunny artwork on the left leg made me smile as soon as I saw it, and I think the slightly cropped pant length and little gap between the shirt and the waistband make this feel very springy. The weather is still cool at times but not always cold enough for long sleeves, although since the shirt is a separate piece we can layer a different top beneath if we wish.

My final look of the evening is both offers from ART & FASHION, since they are both so gorgeous I could not decide between them ♥. The GREEN IN LOVE MINI DRESS is the beauty on the left, which is our $1L prize. The faces on the front are fascinating in that they could be anyone of any race, gender, or age, with serene expressions that make me feel peaceful. There are sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies included. On the right I am feeling sensuous in the GREEN EXPLOSION LONG DRESS which is their stunning $50L exclusive offer. Cheery flowers do call the season to mind, and the dress and the slender tube top are each provided in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing. The extra top is for just a smidge of extra coverage, and you can imagine that without it we do have a more adult type gown ;) I tend to mention modesty adjustments because most of the places I typically visit in SL are general rated, but please don't ever take that as a judgment or criticism of the mature or adult rated places that are just as enjoyable and worth visiting :) It's all good, I'm not here clutching my pearls and searching for a fainting couch because someone might display their 'private parts' to other consenting adults.

Three cheers for the weekend! I am gasping at the weather forecast here which is now showing snow for a few hours (in a few hours), like OMG where did my pretty spring weather go? I think Mother Nature needs a nice fruity adult beverage with an umbrella, and a spa weekend to unwind. Okay many of us could probably use some parts of that idea ;) I do hope that whatever your weekend holds, you have a blissful one with lots of magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Ewa Boutique Subscriber Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I made a discovery at Ewa Boutique that I couldn't wait to share with all of you :) They have about 7 gifts at the moment for their subscribers, so if you aren't already subscribed all you have to do is click the bottom of the sign ("Subscribe" bar) and you will then be able to claim all the free gifts by clicking each picture. So no group slot needed, no group fee (their store group does currently have a $299L cost to join) just enjoy the gifts and the updates on their sales and new releases.

First I slipped into the flirty {EB} MAE FATPACK gift. The strapless top and daring wrap skirt are each provided in Belleza Classic, Belleza Curvy, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes. There's also a HUD of course, which offers 15 colors each so we can mix and match. Anyone else seeing Batman in the shape of the top? *chuckle* Even more intriguing is the fact that I don't see a problem with that and find it to be an added feature.

{EB} BRUNNA FATPACK just whispered "warm weather" into my ear :) Its top, shorts, and belt are a great combo, each in sizes for Kupra, Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. As for the fatpack part, that's provided by the HUD which offers 40 choices for section 1 (the top), 20 solid colors for sections 2 and 3 (shorts and belt, respectively), and 5 metals for section 4 which is the belt buckle. The top's choices are a mix of solids and patterns, and how cute are those bows on the back of the straps? You just know when I see a detail like that, I am sharing a rear view to make sure you can see it too :) I always need casual outfits for the majority of the time I spend in SL, so this is greatly appreciated.

But Dawn, you think, I like my casual outfits to have a strong dose of sex appeal...well if that sounds like you, please be sure to click the {EB} RULLA FATPACK photo on that gift wall! The long sleeved sweater is cropped dangerously short, so even the high waisted shorts have a considerable amount of midriff (and underboob) showing above them :) This is actually linked to wear as one piece, in Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing. The enclosed HUD offers 20 colors apiece for top and shorts, with the top always being lovely stripes while the shorts remain solid. I wouldn't hesitate to add a bra or tank top BOM layer beneath if I were going somewhere that modesty would be a concern, as most of us by now probably have tons of those in every color in our inventory already.

The gorgeous {EB} ISABELLY BLUE FLOWER outfit brings a wild and free feeling, part hippie and part music festival I think. It consists of the top, sleeves, skirt, and legs metals (those striking gold chains) all of which fit Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. We have straps winding around our midriff, sleeves that we can add or wear the outfit without, and a fantastic tropical pattern that is sure to turn heads.

My final look this evening, the {EB} GRETTA pink subscriber gift, gave me a fun excuse to use a pose with my hands up in a "rawr" kitty paws kind of stance. Honestly I am not very intimidating, RL or SL, so even wearing a shirt that says "SAVAGE" I'm still giving off newborn kitten vibes ;) However I do wonder if a cat with sharp claws got a hold of my clothing. The shorts are loosely laced in the front and have distressed spots both front and back, which combine with the diagonally cropped tank top for a sexy look for sure. Each piece is provided in Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes.

My brain is doing it again, the 'it' where it makes me very confused about the day of the week. Most of the day it felt like Friday or even Saturday (?) but it wasn't a bad day or anything. I went out to get a birthday card for a dear family friend, slightly belated, and will have to fill it out and address it in the morning. There are no stamps in the house for some reason, so that's a tomorrow thing too ;) I had a really busy evening playing Hello Kitty Island Adventures with an online friend, chatting on the phone instead of trying to type while playing, so that was a great time and we plan on doing that every week for the multiplayer quests that reset each Monday. After 2 and a half weeks of playing, I feel like I've only unlocked like 1% of the game so far, plenty to still see and experience. I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Fabulous and Free

 Hiya everyone! Tonight felt like a fun time to find fabulous gift, specifically for the FabFree in SL group. We all deserve to look and feel our best, and this wonderful group and blog will both assist you in doing so while saving some money. The group is always free to join, and their participating designers love to shower us with generous treats which are all listed on the website :) There is such a wide variety and there are new offerings added all the time, so I always scroll down a bit and look for those older ones that might be overlooked or you may want to grab before the store decides to switch out for something new. 

My first stop was Black Angel, where upstairs I found the charming ARIELLA DRESS by BA Store gift among plenty of others for various groups. The gift includes sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. I think the rugged plaid is a fun contrast to the sensuality of the plunging neckline, and the matching belt attached really wraps things up nicely.

I always enjoy a visit to :.C!L.: Boutique, with fashions from a wide range of eras and styles. This sweet gift is their La Vie en Gold Sweater Shorts Earmuffs Set, which is a clever way to sail into spring when the temperature seems to fluctuate so much in a single day ;) The sweater and skirt are each provided in Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh body sizes, and the gift also includes the unrigged boots and heart-shaped earmuffs. The versatility is tremendous too, since you can wear any of these pieces with different outfits or items in your wardrobe if you wish. Substitute the shorts for your favorite skirt or pants, then on a different day try wearing sneakers or sandals instead of the boots, it's all up to you :)

Next I invite you to MONOMANIA, whose generosity to many multi-designer groups is well known and appreciated, to grab their Hoodie Bunnie gift. The name made me expect to see rabbits as part of the print, but instead I see decorated eggs and some greenery which is on point for this time of year :) The sexy hooded mini dress is sleeveless with low cut arm holes, and an open weave panel down the back, so fun! There are sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Reborn, and Senra Jamie mesh bodies, as well as a HUD with 7 colors to choose from. If you need a little modesty, I suggest BOM layer pants or shorts, and perhaps a bra or pasties.

The [Pixel Doll] Clarise Bodysuit Set 01 - Extra 01 gift for FabFree is a bit on the naughty side because of being so sheer, yet sweet for spring thanks to the pastel blue lace. This strapless suit comes in Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh body sizes.

My final look of the night is a playful outfit from a store that is new to me. The [Flaneur] Breeze Fab Gift consists of the beautiful floral patterned top and shorts, each in sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Pinup Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The delicate bows and pretty ruffles adorning each really add to the feminine feeling here, and I want to run through a meadow of wildflowers in my new outfit ;)

It was a much more peaceful day since I did not go out anywhere, and my hockey team had a very back-and-forth type game until they finally sealed the deal with a few extra goals. They won't make the playoffs, but they probably prevented their rivals from making it either by beating them tonight. Tomorrow I will probably do a small outing, no idea where yet, as I need to keep my momentum going and continue to leave the house even when it isn't comfortable. I hope you're all having a relaxing day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Bunny Kisses and Easter Wishes

 Hiya everyone! Tonight it's time to explore the CMH Bunny Kisses & Easter Wishes 5 hunt event. The prizes are hiding inside golden eggs, with the designers deciding which and how many - $1L hunt prizes and $25L or $50L exclusive offerings. It is such a great way to pick up affordable deals from amazing stores, some of which you've never seen before this event :) Be sure to check out the Cheeky Monkey Hunts website for the landmarks, hints, prices, and photos of all the offerings.

We start the post with our $25L exclusive from Simple Terms called ST - Forget Me Not. This sweet and sassy outfit includes the PJ top, PJ bottom, boots, and boot fur in sizing for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Star mesh bodies. You can probably guess that the basket, ears, and tail are provided too, since they match so perfectly :) I've added the boot fur on the left but removed it on the right, so you can see the subtle difference but also appreciate that they look terrific either way.

On the same region you can also visit GoodVibes, and this store is loaded with prizes for us! Their $25L exclusive treat is the April Marigold Dress Set, which starts with the lovely dress in sizes for Legacy, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies. The coordinating heels fit the same bodies, and we also receive the wide-brimmed bonnet you see here and a BOM panty layer. The pattern on the dress is bursting with cute bunnies, eggs, and flowers, so it is delightful for the upcoming holiday :)

The GoodVibes Babygirl pink butterfly Dress is their impressive $50L exclusive prize, both sweet and seductive. The dress, gloves, panty, and collar are all included in Legacy, Bombshell, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies. There are delicate ruffles on every single piece, from the fingerless gloves to the mostly hidden panties beneath the dress :) The butterflies and the hearts on the main fabric print could be nods to spring, but I certainly wouldn't limit myself (or anyone else) to enjoying this only one season of the year.

We're still at GoodVibes for this prize, a $1L gift called NoBunny Womens Tshirt. I'd like to mention that there is also a Mens version of this tee (off-white leaning pale blue) in a different egg, so be sure to bring your favorite guy if he is interested in matching you for Easter :) Our shirt comes in Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh body sizing, with a raccoon sporting bunny ears and a basket full of painted eggs. He's also wearing prison stripes, so I'm thinking he swiped the eggs to impress us? I slipped into the white pair of Delizio jeans which are free on the marketplace as part of a fatpack gift, system layers (BOM) plus appliers for Maitreya and Omega.

My final look of the evening is a bit of a tease for a future post, as it is just one of the trio of offerings you can find at The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. :) Their Easter Bow Tee is the $50L prize awaiting us here, and its rich burgundy background really shows off the front image of a multicolored, multi-patterned bow with flowers adorning it. Find the egg and you'll get a handy unpacking HUD that lets you choose just the sizes you need at the moment - standard, eBody Classic, eBody Reborn, Waifu, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. Get the one you need right now and hang onto that HUD for future reference, in case you change bodies in the future but don't want to clog your inventory with a dozen or more sizes that you don't need at the moment. 

Well, my plan for the day was to test myself a little and go further than I had been, making 2 stops in one outing. My housemate (aka the driver) got a little carried away, LOL, and we made 4 stops during our extra long and stressful outing. I did fairly decently until the 4th stop, when the anxiety kicked in hard. To my credit, I'd gotten up a few hours earlier than usual to do this, and I had not taken any extra medication like I'd done for a few harder outings in the past. It wasn't fun, but it was progress :) My reward was an extended session of Hello Kitty Island Adventure, lol, until I was barely able to keep my eyes open and a nap called my name. Now I'm glad to be here blogging, and am pondering tomorrow's post already. I hope you're all having a peaceful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Bad Bunny Event

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'd like to invite you to the Bad Bunny Event, which I think of as the dark side of Easter :) Goth, spooky, alternative type styles abound here, and there are over 100 gifts available for free with no group joining required. I know some of you are reading this like OMG gimme the link already, I'm there!! My usual personal style truly varies with my moods, and lately I have been wearing pastels and springy outfits so I am relishing the change of pace. It is much harder to switch things up so drastically in RL, making it even more fun to dress my avi as a hippie one day, biker babe the next, and goth chick another day. Bad Bunny definitely brings out the part of me that craves black lipstick, dark eyeshadow, and lots of spiky things to wear.

My first look of the evening is the playful Uni-qu3::*Andromache set::White gift, one of the few lighter colored treats that I found :) The top and panties are each provided in Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes. The top has a sheer diagonally cut lower section with pretty hearts, and the rear view shows that the panties have slipped ever so slightly towards the center ;) 

Next I've got three wonderful gifts to show and tell you about. The top on the left is our SNS EGGIE TOP from SUGAR N' SPICE, a sassy tube top with slit on the front to show off cleavage. There are sizes for Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies tucked inside this treat :) The zOOm - FullMoon Tshirt Gift is the beauty to the right, a cropped short sleeve tee in Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing. The artwork is fantastic, with a murder of crows flying in front of the moon above some glowy mushrooms. Then of course, we have the flirty [APPETITE] Lia GIFT Skirt that paired so nicely with both pieces :) The band around the skirt says "Bunny with an Appetite", with said bunny pictured to the left of the text with glowing red eyes and 2 decorated eggs in its paws. Our gift includes sizes for Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn mesh bodies.

The [APPETITE] skirt came in handy again to share the nope. lita anti-valentines gift fatpack seen above in two of its 5 versions. There are Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu sizes included, along with a HUD to choose from the cupid with two different wordings or the pink candy heart with three styles. I'm wearing "Never Again" above my cupid, and "I Tolerate You" for the snarky heart. I've got to admit, I am absolutely happy and satisfied with my relationship status but if I were to find myself single again (heaven forbid) I would be just like this shirt! Not talking to any guys who might be looking for more than friendship, and probably not mustering up my usual diplomacy or politeness about it. 

This sleek strapless tube dress is our PULSE- Hesperia - Dress - Fishnet Black gift. It has panels of fishnet down each side, and a fun opening in the cleavage region to bare an extra flash of skin. We receive sizing for Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies, with an alpha mask HUD to turn that feature on or off. That affects the appearance of the fishnet panels, so it depends if you are trying to show tattoos through it or are wearing something over top of it since multiple transparency layers in SL don't usually work out well.

My final look of the evening is the [Ari-Pari] Dark Swirls Dress gift, a stunning sleeveless sundress style with damask prints and a wide black waistband. It fits Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh bodies, while including a HUD that lets us pick from 7 deep mysterious colors. It makes me want to twirl around in the moonlight :) That's not even a Goth thing, that's a night owl thing from a nocturnal person who rarely goes out in the sunlight. 

I've been so slow and distracted this evening by the smallest things, so let me just wrap this up with wishes for a nice day/evening and many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Group Gifts Galore

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're taking a look at treats for two multi-designer groups, visiting 3 different stores, so it is variety squared ;) The groups are ShopaholicsSL and Mesh Body Friends, both of which are currently free to join. As you can gather, there is some crossover with some of the designers being contributors to both groups (among many others) and so it is handy to have as many group slots available as you can when visiting some generous stores. I was so excited when they gave us all more group slots, and then of course I used them all up quicker than a hiccup. *shrug* It's too tempting to join all the groups and claim all the goodies!!

My first stop was Hilly Haalan, where there is an entire building dedicated to group gifts for several groups including their own. The Shopaholics treat is called [hh] Brielle Set, and it is a beautiful pairing of ruffled top and skirt with built in panties. Each piece fits eBody Curvy, Freya, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. There's also a HUD provided so we can select from 12 colors each for the top, upper ruffles, bow, lace trim, upper strap, lower strap, back strap, ruffles with white band, skirt, skirt strap, skirt lace, and panties. We can also hide the panties and the upper strap, so there are so many possibilities here for us to enjoy :) 

Over at Alias!, I grabbed not just one but two gifts for different groups. The Shopaholics goodie is the adorable Bunny Hug Pastel Green outfit, and words cannot explain the cuteness here ♥. I shall try though ;) The long sleeved crop top is provided in 3 classic and 3 fitmesh sizes (each S, M, L) for classic avatars along with Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizes. The shorts have a similar set of sizes - 5 standard mesh, eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. They each have bunnies of course, on the front of the shirt and on the front and back (booty bunny!) of the cinched shorts. Then we have accessories, specifically the unrigged slippers with floppy bunny ears and tail in the back, and a sweet bunny to hold onto :) The mint green really shows off the white rabbit nicely, and I wore parts of this outfit last night to do a MadPea murder mystery game because I am a bit bizarre at times. I left the bunny safely at home (well, in the folder) so he didn't see all the grisly murders, and decided that sneakers were more practical than slippers that might absorb the blood and be hard to clean.

Another Alias! treat you don't want to miss out on is the Lovely Baby Blue outfit for the Mesh Body Friends group. Its jumpsuit, jacket, boots, and bear chain (waist) each come in sizing for Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. I'm always drawn to any pattern with hearts on it in any color, and this shade of blue is such a bright and cheery one :) I switched to my Lara X from 5.3 for this photo and the next one, then back again for the last one since I just go with whichever sizes are provided. I enjoy them both and use the same shape for both, so it isn't a big deal for me.

More hearts, yay! This time we are visiting {Chaotic}, whose Akia dress is their gift for Mesh Body Friends. The rainbow of hearts on the white background can be an early nod to Pride month, or simply a treat for those of us who crave color in our wardrobes :) The strapless style has a white top to match the ribbons tied around each upper arm, which are linked to the dress so it is all worn at one time. There are sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies.

For my final look this evening, you'll want to switch back to your Shopaholics group tag to click the {Chaotic} Samatha sign and receive your new gift. The wispy dress and thigh high boots are each designed for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. There's a HUD with 4 choices for the dress coloring, all of which are going to look wonderful with the neutral black boots and their spiky stiletto heels. The rear view might be a bit on the revealing side, so please choose your destination wisely when wearing this little number ;) I think back in the day they would call this look 'hotter than a two dollar pistol'.

How was everyone's weekend? Mine was pretty good overall, and I have some plans for the upcoming week both RL and SL that are keeping me motivated and feeling relatively positive. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Sharodie's Design

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post features several group gifts and a hunt prize from Sharodie's Design, where the group is free and there is currently a hunt happening to look for 10 cats around the store. These sweet felines are in different colors and poses, some hiding up fairly high like atop an arch while others are slinking around in the greenery or just hanging around in the open :) They're all set for sale for $0L and contain mostly dresses with BOM bases and a flexi style skirt so they are great for classic avatars or any BOM-compatible body. I have no idea what the timeframe is for the hunt, so hopefully you'll have a chance to stop by this weekend or very soon.

My first look is a lovely group gift called ~*~Sharodie's Design~*~ Suzette pink. The turtleneck and long sleeves are balanced by a super short hemline, and that pale rosy color is just right for the spring. Our gift includes Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes.

Another generous group gift is giving summer flavor, the ~*~Sharodie's Design~*~ Tropical dress. It includes the ruched dress and separate sleeves in sizing for Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. I love the red and the floral pattern, with little pops of yellow inside the smaller flowers :) Since this has a Lara X size instead of 5.3, I switched to that body for a few photos.

~*~Sharodie's Design~*~ Noel Gown is a fantastic group gift with both elegance and sex appeal. The bodice is designed with bold cutouts, and the flowing skirt has a long train so it could even work as a flirty wedding dress if you're so inclined. It fits Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies.

If you've been around SL a long time, you will recognize the styling of our ~*~Sharodie's Design~*~ Amy gown group gift as a system layer top, glitch pants, and a full flexi skirt that moves when we walk :) There is no mesh involved, just amazing textures and BOM friendly system pieces that can suit nearly any mesh body. The colors are stunning, and the skirt's hints of lilac are making me think of fancy nail polish with color shifting shimmer. So gorgeous!

My final look is one of the 10 hunt prizes I mentioned, oddly enough the only one not a dress or gown...the ~*~Sharodie's Design~*~ My PJ's prize made me think of how I will probably spend a fair amount of my upcoming weekend ;) The top and shorts each come in sizes for Belleza Classic, Belleza Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, and Juicy mesh bodies. The snuggly bear is enclosed too, with the built in hold pose you see above ♥. I switched back to Lara 5.3, and was amused by the way the left side of the shorts seems to be riding up in the back. Don't worry, the pretty lace is still covering the essentials.

*fans face* This room is feeling pretty steamy right about now, and I am not sure where our nice moderate spring went already. I've got a ceiling fan and a smaller floor fan on, neither of which is doing all that much, and it's 77 in here even though it's much cooler outside with the sun being down. I enjoyed dinner with my parents, and we looked through more old pictures while the housemate helped my dad with his new phone which was doing odd things. For one thing it had my mom's contact marked as spam (annoying but funny), even after being deleted and re-added. I think they resolved that but not sure how. It's a Samsung phone, but so was his old one I believe. Technology can be a real pain in the neck sometimes, or a bit lower ;) I hope you've all got a wonderful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
