Variety at DM

Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting just one store, DM, and using several different group tags (most free to join) to claim their current group gifts. There are several available, and I was already familiar with the quality of their clothing so I knew I would enjoy the treats I found there. The gifts contain sizes for multiple mesh bodies, so you can find the right fit for your favorite body. Speaking of mesh bodies/heads, I am still tweaking shapes to suit my Slink Amelia head and Physique body and get them to look the way I want. It is definitely a work in progress :)


First we have their gift for the MLM Frees&Offers group, which has a modest $5L fee to join to keep out spammers. The gift is called DM:: Top And Skirt, and each piece comes in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The combination of denim and red gingham looks terrific, and what a flirty style!


Need something sexy and fun to wear? Activate your Avangardista group tag (free to join) and claim this DM:: Mya Romper. It comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing, with an attached gold belt and peekaboo window in front. The color and the texture are nice touches too.


DM's gift for the SLF&O group (free to join) is their Maiara Top And Shorts, which are each included in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing. The top is so sheer that I decided to wear the system layer (BOM) pasties I found recently on the marketplace from -HU- for a little modesty. Before I added them, parts of me were on full display, which is fun for certain places and circumstances :) But it is good to know that there are alternatives if necessary.


If the cooler weather makes you want to run to the nearest beach instead, you could use an outfit like their Helena Set. It is their gift for the Third Life group (free to join), and consists of bra, panties, and skirt each in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh sizes. I always enjoy outfits like this with multiple pieces that can be worn different ways, like slipping out of the fishnet skirt for some sunbathing or swimming.


My final look of the night is the gift for the MGSN group (free to join) which is short for Maitreya Gifts, Sales and News. The DM:: Dress Heart is provided in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, and has a short ruffle of a skirt over built in panties and beneath that cute heart cutout on the stomach. The denim is very nicely textured, with those bold stitches that really add to the realistic look.

Whew, what a day! There were just too many things to do, and rush hour traffic is the worst as I'm sure you all know. Even my chiropractor visit was rough, overbooked and crowded to the point that during my treatment (heat and "stim") I had to get up and move to another room. It was chaos, LOL, but I should be feeling better in a day or two with fewer headaches. I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Halloween Sales Gifts

Hiya everyone! Tonight we visit the Halloween Sales 2019 event again, because there were too many terrific gifts there for me to fit into one post. You can claim the gifts by clicking the pumpkins that are draped with a black ribbon at each designer's display, and you will also find seasonal items (mens and womens clothing, accessories, home decor, etc.) for 50% off or more. You will need to hurry since it is a timely event of course, ending on the 4th of November. You may notice that I look quite different tonight, well that is because I am wearing one of the newly released Slink Visage Bento heads :) Her name is Amelia and I am still trying to find the right set of tweaks to get her to look the way I want. I am wearing the Slink Physique body tonight too, which I haven't done in a while, so it was an evening of adjustments :)


My first look of the evening is the Tamara Dress gift from *Gloss*, a single strap mini dress with a subtle pattern on its flutter skirt. The gift includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes for plenty of popular mesh bodies.


Next we see the treat from the On A Lark pumpkin, *OAL* Meryl ~ Autumn. This lovely dress has a plunging neckline all the way down to the waist, with a few pleats in the front and a fun strap down the back. It is provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies.


This playful outfit is our gift from New Line Store, their Witch Set Gift. The dress and boots are each included in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing, along with the matching hat. There is even a HUD provided that has 3 color choices for each component, so there is versatility as well. 


I have a confession for this look...I decided to censor it, as you can tell with the red flower that wound up looking more like an asterisk or a blob. I think you can still tell what it says though ;) This is the gift from Vicious Delicious, called Dont Be Sweatshirt, which includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. If you read my blog often, you are probably not surprised to see the jeans from Delizio again, as they are one of my all-time favorite marketplace gifts, coming in several colors as system layers (shown, BOM) and appliers for Maitreya and Omega.


My final look this evening is our gift from DaneMarkZ, their DMZ Fashionably Dead Nail Polish. There are 12 colors with a spectral skull image on them, in appliers for Maitreya and Omega. Please excuse the dark edges around my nails, this is an older skin not created for BOM and I had trouble tinting the tattoo layer fixes for that because in edit mode the skin and tattoos go blurry. Maybe I need to edit them while wearing them on my system hands and not in BOM mode...*lightbulb moment* :) Now to see if I actually remember that when I login a few hours from now. Spoiler alert: poor memory lately means I probably will not.

It has been quite the day...a hockey game left me dejected and frustrated, and a family member was fairly annoying when I was already moody. That doesn't sound like the best idea, now does it? Tomorrow I have an appointment with a few stops before and after, so it looks to be a busy one. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Halloween Sales Event

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have another seasonal event for you to enjoy, called Halloween Sales 2019, where you can find deeply discounted items (50% or even more in some cases) as well as gifts at each display. Just click the pumpkin with the black ribbon/bow, no group needed, to claim a treat from that designer. They hold things such as clothing for men and women, accessories, and home decor, so a little something for nearly everyone. Some of the designers were familiar to me while others weren't, a mixture that I do appreciate.


My first look starts with the UNC Girls Gift - Madeline Dress - Black Widow. This lovely gown includes a HUD with 4 colors choices, two of which can be seen above, with a spider and her web on the skirt. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and a fitted version for classic avatars. I couldn't help but notice that the purple color was a beautiful match for another gift, the .[ KUMIHO ]. Purple Flower Tattoo on the back of my neck. The gift is an Omega applier which applies a single long stemmed purple bloom and two leaves that reach towards each shoulder. 


Next we see the [AF] Taienny Tank Dress *Ghost* gift from anny's Fashions. It has a fun twist in the front, above the slit on the left thigh, and its pattern is haunted by a group of cute ghosts. It comes in what I call the lucky 13 of mesh sizes: 5 classic, 5 fitmesh, Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink.


Our gift from Angel Pink is their {AP}Djulia Sweatshirt, cropped fairly short and with 3/4 length sleeves. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies, with a HUD that offers 4 texture choices. 3 feature flowers and the fourth is an herb, the type that is not quite legal everywhere yet ;) I love how the sleeves for each texture choice are patterned to match the image on the front. I am wearing my favorite marketplace freebie from Delizio with it, their jeans in blue which is one of several colors included in that gift as system layers plus Maitreya and Omega appliers.


Another flirty shirt awaits you inside the pumpkin at the Eternal Limited display, their ELTD Naughty Zombie Knit Top. It is provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, and I am thinking that layering it above a tank top or bra could help with any modesty issues for G rated sims. 


My final look of the night may have you wondering if I am a devil in disguise ;) I guess that depends who you ask! This playful costume is the ..::Believe::.. Devil Set, a generous gift with flirty dress in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, along with horns, choker, and pitchfork with hot pink ribbon. If you are going to a costume party somewhere adult-ish looks are welcomed, this just might be the look for you.

I hope you are all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Halloween at AsteroidBox

Hiya everyone! Tonight we take a look at a spooky Halloween hunt at AsteroidBox, with 9 free gifts waiting for us. When you arrive there is a sign outside the front door with the first clue (click it for the notecard) and a photo of the prizes. The hunt object appears in the photo too, a box with a folded top that reminds me of a paper bag. The store is part of a small city scene, which you will need to explore for some of the prizes. Each time you find one, there will be a notecard inside with your next clue, a format I really enjoyed. All of the gifts are bloody versions of clothing and accessories, so they are useful for Halloween or roleplay as well as regular wear, depending on how you live your Second Life ;) 


My first look is three of our prizes, starting with the AsteroidBox. Selene Shirt - Bloody. It includes sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Maitreya, Petite, V-Tech, and Legacy mesh bodies. The striking Malus Pants - Bloody are a great match for this shirt or anything you wish to wear with them. They come in Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizing with a HUD that lets you choose between 2 metals for the buckle and 2 colors for the belt. Even my glasses are a prize, their Theia Glasses - Bloody, which are unrigged and can be adjusted if necessary. 


This photo turned out wider than the others, so you will need to give it a click to see the full size, but it is well worth a better look :) I kept the Malus Pants on but changed into the Auriga Sweater - Bloody, which comes in Hourglass, Maitreya, and Petite sizing with a HUD for the chain that lets you choose from 2 colors and even turn the chain off or on if you wish. I'm sure you noticed my umbrella too, well good news - it is a hunt prize too! Their Notos Umbrella - Bloody comes in two versions with slightly different hold animations, both of which I am displaying above. I wonder if the umbrella became bloody because it really is bad luck to open one in a house...then again I am also wondering whose blood it is!


I think these two gifts paired particularly nicely, don't you? The outfit is the Carina Corset - Bloody, which I mistakenly expected to be top rather than full bodysuit style, but I like it! The prize includes sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. The frilled leg openings are such a flirty touch, and draw the attention downward to our other prize seen here called Canopus Boots - Bloody. These thigh high stilettos are provided in Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizing, with HUD that offers 3 metal options for that long zipper in the back.


This daring look is the AsteroidBox. Eridani Dress - Bloody, a prize that comes in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. It also includes a 2-metal HUD for the zippers in front and back, so you can decide if you are in a golden mood or a silver one. It is a very short, tight style that is sure to turn heads, especially if people are wondering where the blood came from.


My final look of the evening is the irresistible style of Powehi Dress - Bloody, whose halter strap is buckled to two belts just beneath the bust to hold everything just right. There is also a side slit for extra glimpses, and a deep neckline for a flash of cleavage. The prize includes Freya, Hourglass, Maitreya, Petite, and V-Tech sizes, with a HUD for 2 metals each for the buckles and zipper. So pretty, and the blood adds the element of danger so I feel like a sexy spy or villain from a movie in this dress.

My day was apparently "headache day" rather than Sunday, both literally and figuratively, as the hockey game I watched had a depressing outcome and I have been rubbing my temples and scalp off and on for hours trying to feel better. So far that score is Headache - 1, Dawn - 0, which would have been a less upsetting ending for the hockey game than its actual tally. I am trying to stay positive and cheerful, mostly by looking at cute animals on social media :) I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Punk JUSTUS Treats

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more treats from Punk JUSTUS to share, most of which can be found in those free pumpkins I told you about last night. They are set for sale for $0L and some are hiding in plain sight while others are enjoying the outdoors or visiting one of the side buildings flanking the store. One of my dresses is from their Midnight Mania board, which as a side note (and hint) has a big pumpkin nearby that you might want to check out :) I even found some system layer (BOM) pasties on the marketplace to help me show off a tattoo or two. 


My first look of the evening is dead inside by Punk JUSTUS, a halter style dress with unique straps in front and a lacy extra layer of skirt. It comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP sizing.


Another terrific pumpkin prize is the samhain dress by Punk JUSTUS, with an open weave top and pretty pattern of leaves and acorns. The pumpkin holds Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes.


Back to the spooky side of things, we have the prize called nightmare by Punk JUSTUS. It comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine sizes, and features a single strap sleeve and fluttery short skirt.


For this look, I combined two pumpkin hunt prizes and an unrelated marketplace gift. The tattoo is called sugar skull tattoo by Punk JUSTUS, and comes in black and neon versions, each as system layers as well as Omega appliers. The skirt is the other hunt prize, unknown grave by Punk JUSTUS which is provided in sizes for eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. The marketplace is where to find the pasties I am wearing, from Heart Undies and called -HU- Bandage Pasties. There are system layers for upper and lower, as there is a groin bandage included along with the X's for our nipples. Obviously I am having fun with the ability to wear system layers again, thanks to BOM.


My final look this evening is the current Midnight Mania prize, autumn air by Punk JUSTUS. The front is loosely stitched together down the left, leaving a flirty slit on the thigh. As long as enough people click the midnight mania board, everyone who does will receive it for free. No group is needed, and visiting to click this board is how I discovered the pumpkin hunt in the first place :) I love the colors as much as the style, and even got a compliment from Xan on this particular dress.

It was a busy but mostly enjoyable day, and I should be able to get some decent rest tomorrow. I just found out this evening that a childhood friend lost her grandmother, who helped her mom raise her, and I used to spend every other weekend at their house so I knew her quite well too. They all moved over 1000 miles away when my friend got married, so it's been 20+ years since I have seen them, but there are fond memories that will always be in my heart. I've been trying to figure out how old she was, I'm going to guess pretty close to my grandmother's 93 years if not more. My friend was even named after her grandmother, so her spirit lives on in her family for sure. I hope you're all having a peaceful weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Pumpkins at Punk JUSTUS

Hiya everyone! Tonight is a part one post, as there are 13 hidden pumpkins at Punk JUSTUS with terrific treats inside that I am excited to show you. They are all set for sale for $0L and contain mostly ladies' fashions, but there is one with a tattoo and two with mens' clothing. Some of the pumpkins are inside the store and others are outside, and there are buildings on either side of the mainstore that you may wish to explore ;) Yes that is a hint. All of them are carved, most but not all are orange colored, and there is a set of 3 on the counter that I mistook for a decoration until I realized it was for sale. I actually only found 12 of the 13, but I still think I did fairly well and I am delighted with what I was able to locate.


First we have the psycho ghosty by Punk JUSTUS, a flirty outfit whose top and skirt are each included in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP sizing. The top is lifted on one side, and the fringed skirt is narrow enough to practically double as a belt ;) I spy a popular emoji on the top, that is a fun detail too.


My next daring look has revealing heart-shaped holes down the front and a few on the back, and it is called little ghosty by Punk JUSTUS. This prize comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies.


This colorful beauty is La Calavera by Punk JUSTUS, a colorful homage to the Day of the Dead celebrations. It is provided in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing, all with bright blue belt and sheer matching trim at top and hem.


Another prize with a dramatic flair is the thorns of love by Punk JUSTUS, a ruffled halter dress with crimson roses (watch out for their thorny vines!) and grinning skulls. It is provided in sizes for Altamura, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies.


I feel like no Halloween theme is complete without a few bats, so I was pleased to find this dress called coven by Punk JUSTUS. It has a shiny latex texture with two bats on the front and one on the back, high slits at each thigh, and a plunging neckline. This pumpkin holds sizes for eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies.

Today was a decent day, with cool but not chilly weather, and I had a nice dinner with my parents. Their cockatiels made me laugh, they are both generally shy and not hand tamed at all and do not seem to trust humans enough to eat table food. However, one of them got a hold of a croissant a few weeks ago and loved it, so now he is a little carb addict! We were eating crumb cake for dessert and he came down to the table to try to eat some, but sugar isn't healthy for birds so we couldn't really let him have any. The croissant was not exactly recommended bird chow either, LOL, but the biggest things they need to avoid are chocolate and alcohol. Veggies are a good choice for table food for them, and these guys each nibble on an almond or cashew occasionally during breakfast. They are picky, and their first two homes didn't help matters so I am happy for them that they are in a loving environment now. Well I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hunt on Haunted Hill

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am pleased to show you some hunt prizes from the Hunt on Haunted Hill, which is a $1L gridwide hunt that has us looking for nice round uncarved pumpkins in each store. There are hints and locations on their website, as well as some preview photos which I always find helpful. You might notice my lush new lashes, well they are LIVIA's exclusive offer at the Flora event, and I promise a closer look at the end of the post :)


My first look can be found at :.C!L.: and is their Black Bones LongLeather Coat, Leggings&TopSet. I love versatile outfits like this, well suited for wearing in different ways. The long coat is mesh and provided in standard sizes as well as versions for Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh bodies. The top and pants each come in system layers and Omega appliers, so you can enjoy them with classic or mesh avatars or BOM (Bakes on Mesh) as I have done here.


Next I kept on the pants from :.C!L.: (hope you don't mind me showing off a little bit of femur, LOL) and slipped into the Grumble prize called So 80's Top-Boo!. It is a fun nod to a decade of neon colors with some serious Lisa Frank vibes, while those colors enhance some Halloween symbols like hats, pumpkins, skulls, and spiders. The gift includes sizes for eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies.


I also visited Waffles to claim their playful prize, the *WW* Bats & Pumpkins Ruffle Bodysuit. It is a deep spectral shade of teal, with cheerful bats and a few pumpkins on the pattern. The prize consists of standard mesh sizes along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP versions.


The Sissy Bar is a frequent stop for me on many hunt paths, including this one for which I claimed their Spider Web Mini. It comes in standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP fits, with three straps each front and back that link to the collar to hold the dress in place. The webs almost remind me of snowflakes from a distance, although the colors are certainly right for the season :)


Ohhh la la! I am so enjoying the LIVIA // Lashes No.8-11, which you can find at the Flora event and even pick up a free demo to try them out. There are Catwa and Omega appliers included, four luxurious styles each in black or tintable versions. They are all a slightly spidery style, perfectly separated with alternating lengths to look fluttery and fantastic. All this is just $149L, so be sure to visit Flora and pick these up! In the inset, you can see I tried the tintable variety of one of the lashes and went with a bold blue, very easy to tint with the Genus HUD for my head. I am really fond of the lower lashes for these styles too, they are full and balanced nicely with the upper lashes.

I am having another slow night tonight, just easily distracted and feeling a bit drowsy. I did watch a hockey game that explains a lot of the distraction, but it was a good game so no regrets :) I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Tricks, Treats, and Hallow Manor

Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting the Wonderland Trick & Treat Fair, where you can enjoy shopping for various seasonal needs like costumes and home decor. There is also a treasure hunt with a hidden pumpkin (flat prim) at each designer's display, just find and give it a click for a free gift. I am pleased to show you a few of those tonight to give you an idea of what you might find. Another event worth visiting is Hallow Manor, which offers exclusive sales items from various talented designers along with a HUD based hunt. The HUDs are not free and there are different options for them, so if you are interested in that I recommend reading the information found there. What I will be showing you tonight are the exclusive offers from Entice, which can be worn together for a terrific outfit.


This first gift is from Mara's Mysteries, and is their Patrisha Gown - Spiders. It comes in standard mesh sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP versions. The halter harness style is a fun one, and I actually like the spider pattern which is surprising for someone who is moderately arachnophobic ;)


Another prize from Mara's Mysteries is their *MM* Rhonda Dress - Blood stained GIFT, provided in standard mesh size as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body versions. It features a halter style and splashes of blood, that work better on the yellow background than they would on a darker orange that is so popular for this season. 


Another fun treat can be found in the pumpkin at the Fatal Fashion display, their Shorts Lenora Black GIFT. They come in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with lots of slender straps on each hip to hold them in place. So flirty! I needed just the right top to wear with them, and remembered this handy gift I found recently on the marketplace and blogged at the time. It is from Clock Works and is their Skull Top Black, in system layers (which work perfectly with BOM) which you can edit and tint to change the skull's color. 


Moonstar is offering their MESH Green Skulls Dress and Choker for all who click their pumpkin. It consists of the dress in sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and a standard version, while the choker has a built in resize script when you click it. There is even a matching thong in a system layer plus an Omega applier, in the same lovely deep green texture as the dress.


For my final look of the evening, we head to Hallow Manor and visit Entice there. Their exclusive offers are the Fade to Black Top and Fade to Black Pants, each of which come in 8 individual colors for $99L (reduced from $200L) or a fatpack for $299L (regularly $599L). No matter which you choose, it will include sizes for Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies. If you are familiar with Entice's wonderful work, you will know that their fatpacks usually work via HUD and contain 2 bonus colors/textures, and these offers are no exception :) The HUD for the pants also lets you change the main, face, and rivets separately for maximum versatility. I think you can tell that I recommend the fatpacks because of all the extra potential.

It has been a better day, at least healthwise, and I haven't had any breathing difficulties *knock on wood* so I am really relieved. That was just so random and bizarre, I do not ever want a repeat occurrence. I am still exploring things in SL that might be wrapping up next week as things to potentially share here, so I don't have time to be sick ;) I hope you're all having a great day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
