Peace On Earth Is Back

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are welcoming back the Peace On Earth Hunt, which is in its 14th year of bringing generous free gifts from many wonderful designers. The hunt has changed hands over the years and was absent altogether last year (I missed it so!) but I'm elated that it is back, as you can clearly tell :) So as with all the previous rounds, we are looking for small globes as in a representation of the earth. Each are hidden in the participating stores and there is a hint for every one on the website, with most stores also providing the hint in the sample globe on the hunt's sign by their entrance or landing point. The folder you receive when you click each hidden globe contains your gift and a landmark to the next stop, a very handy feature that used to be the norm for gridwide hunts but seemed to fall out of favor since it can be complicated to make sure the previous store updates the contents with the new landmark if the next store has moved. I always keep the hunt website open anyway as force of habit, and it can help us verify quickly if anything has changed and I can read the hint before even rezzing the store :) There are 42 stops this year with multiple globes to find in a few, so the peaceful spirit of this hunt is alive and waiting for us to enjoy!


My first look comes from [Ari-Pari] and is their charming Natalie Outfit. I feel like most of what I do in SL calls for casual clothing, so this cropped sweater and loose fitting jeans with rolled cuffs add up to one perfect outfit for my tastes :) Plus there is a HUD with 12 colors for the sweater and 6 for the jeans, so I get a generous slice of variety with my casual fashion. The sweater and jeans are each included in Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh body sizing. 


I kept the jeans on here but changed into another hunt prize, the [ASHBURY] POE 14 TUX JACKET FEMALE. There is also a male treat inside the same globe, in case you wondered about their specifying female for this one :) We receive Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes of this elegant jacket, which can be worn over so many types of tops, pants, and skirts depending on your mood and your destination.


Just Imagine has a special gift waiting for you in their globe called Wishing Peace by JI. Its sweater and skirt are separate pieces that can be worn individually if you wish, each in standard mesh sizes as well as versions for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. The silhouette of cupid on the front is holding a white heart, with 'Wishing Peace" written beneath him. I love the scalloped hem of our plaid skirt too, lots of great details to appreciate here for sure.


My next look is the snuggly GoodVibes Sparkling Blue Snowflake Set, which starts with the sweater dress in Maitreya, Petite, and Star Mesh body sizes. Then we can add our booties with balls, which are unrigged with a resize script built in on touch. The dress could also serve as a nightie if you wanted to add a pair of leggings, or could be dressed up with heels instead to wear out and about :) 


For the final stop of the evening, we take a peek at Grumble's stunning Snow Queen Outfit prize. The corset and shorts are each provided in sizes for Belleza Gen X Classic, Belleza Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Peach, Reborn, and Reborn Juicy Boobs bodies. I definitely get the impression that our designer here is quite fond of vibrant rainbow patterns on black backgrounds, as I have seen many from her over the years :) I agree with her taste there obviously, and these snowflakes have an almost glowy quality to them because of their backdrop. The style is extra flirty too, flared and held in place by the anti-gravity magic that is SL. 

I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
