Spring Fling and Fantasies

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I would like to show you another selection from the Spring Fling at Malus Park, which is bursting with seasonal beauty and exclusive offers :) There are even gifts for $25L or less at most of the displays, so you can save lots of lindens while refreshing your spring wardrobe and home decor. Then we head to a fun and free sim hunt, the Spring Fantasies Hunt at Wind Struck. There are many places to explore to find various colored striped eggs, which are set for sale for $0L and contain home and garden items, seasonal decorations, and some holiday clothing treats. Each outfit has a male version and a female version, or unisex in the case of some cute pajamas, and there are a couple of kids' sized prizes too. My best advice is to read the notecard you receive upon arriving, and look in each store or building you find as well as searching other areas of interest by following the pathways. Most of the clothing is geared towards standard avatars, but with BOM and the alpha layers provided they worked perfectly for my Maitreya body too. 


My first look is the exclusive offer from *Lurve* at Spring Fling, called Flirty Skirt Outfit in Snow. The lovely sweater and skirt can be worn separately as well as looking wonderful paired together, and they are provided in standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing. You can purchase this outfit for just $195L, only at the Spring Fling at Malus Park. 


Now over to the Spring Fantasies Hunt, this is the TFF Hippie Chick in Green and Purple from Tayren's Fashion Fantasies. Their mainstore is located on this beautiful sim, so it makes sense for them to provide our wearable goodies :) The dress and vest each come in standard mesh sizes as well as Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. The full outfit also includes unrigged (adjustable) beaded sandals, beaded hair accessory, fringed leather bag, and love beads with peace sign. All of those have resize scripts built in, so you can get the best possible fit with very little effort. There is a male version of this outfit too, so you can coordinate for a party or just for fun!


Next I slipped into the exciting TFF Spring Toga in Blue - Female prize, which also has a matching male version in another hidden egg. The toga dress includes standard mesh sizes, and the gift also consists of the gold laurel hair wreath and unrigged sandals. We can click the wreath and sandals for resize scripts, and the sandals will fit most flat mesh fit by doing so. 


I also found a charming outfit called TFF Spring Date Outfit for Women, which I definitely intend to wear for more than just dates ;) It starts with the dress in a standard version as well as sizes for eBody, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, then continues with unrigged pumps and a straw hat with flowers. The pumps and hat have resize scripts built in, and I love having shoes that perfectly match the pink and white stripes of the dress. 


For my final look of the evening, I am enjoying a few different prizes that go wonderfully together. The one piece pajamas are the TFF Easter Pajamas for Adults & Kids, which come in standard sizes. I am wearing the M with the alpha layer, and as you can see it works out very well. The ears, nose, and tail are all from the TFF Bunny Accessory Set prize, and each has a resize script that you can access just by clicking. My adorable slippers are the TFF Bunny Slippers for Adults & Kids, each provided in pink and blue colors for adults and kids. They can be adjusted too, so they should be able to work with your favorite mesh feet. I feel so coordinated and ready for Easter :)

Hair note of the night: Truth Hair released their newest style with an updated Essentials pack as one of the options, and I was impressed with the wide range of colors available so I chose to purchase that one. I do also love the style, short enough not to hide the back of clothing I want to show off, and with flirty loose curls that gave me such Marilyn Monroe vibes that I chose a golden blonde shade today. The essentials pack is $500L compared to the $300L of the others, but with so many additional choices it is more like a mini fatpack. Since I have taken to changing from my traditional ginger shades lately, it makes the most sense for me to have a HUD with more possibilities. The stylist tab of the HUD lets you flip which side the hair is parted, and change the braided side to loose and gently pulled behind the ear. As always, you should demo any hair before buying of course. The good news is that Truth even mentioned possibly adding colors to the essentials pack in the future depending on feedback, so please let him know if there is a shade you really want to see in there.

It was a long but mostly good weekend, and I am ready for whatever the new week and new month bring :) The only downside will be the dentist visit on Thursday, because who wants to have people poking around with sharp instruments in their mouth on April Fool's Day? LOL! Don't worry, I trust the people at the office I go to very much and will be blissfully unaware of anything because of nitrous anyway. I hope you all had a terrific weekend and are enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
