Sunday Advent Treats

 Hiya everyone! Today it's time for a special morning post so I can share some daily Advent calendar gifts early to give you all as much time as possible to claim them before midnight. Now if you see this another day (these are all from Sunday the 10th) you might not be able to obtain these exact gifts, but these generous stores have new treats available every day until Christmas eve :) Check each location, as some stores offer previous days' gifts for sale at a discount from full price, while others have setups that allow us to claim prior days for free. All of the ones I'm sharing are from calendars that change at Midnight SL time, but there are a few out there that go by the designer's local time instead or are manually swapped out when the designer is able to login each day. Some require no group, others need a free group tag, and there are yet others (not shown here) whose group has a fee to join but if you are a fan of their work, it really might be worth it for you. This is just a small sampling of the many, many stops I make in the Advent morning rush each day when midnight arrives, most of which I'd discovered from the FabFree advent listing. Okay let's see some gifts!


My first look this morning comes from ~Mystika~ and is called Let It Snow. This long buttoned knit top/dress has an unpacker HUD so you only need to deliver the size/s you will use, selecting from Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. So is it a top or a dress? That depends on your modesty level to be honest, LOL, and I tend to bundle up in winter even in SL so you can guess what I'll be doing. Might even layer a BOM tank or halter top beneath :) No group tag is needed to claim this, just click the current date on the tree-shaped calendar. 


[Glitzz] has a very sexy lingerie gift called Maysie Set - Yellow as their day 10 gift for all of us, no group tag required. It consists of the bra, panty, and garters that each fit Kupra, Legacy/Perky, Maitreya/Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, along with a metals HUD with 3 choices. It really is fun to peek under their tree and look at all the bears to see which one has the current date's number on it, then pet it for a reward :) As with all of their fashions, this is beautifully crafted and can put a little spice into the beginning of your week.


I've also been visiting tiar, where you will find 3 different calendars with the tiar (free, no group needed) in the middle of them behind several non-group lucky letter presents. That's like a lucky board or chair, only instead of sitting on a chair you are right clicking then "claim it!" to kneel down and be rewarded if your initial or a wild card "?" appears. Today's advent gift is in a folder named 10, containing Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite sizes with "np" in front so that is what I'm naming it in my credits :) It is a flirty mini dress with white halter top and shiny red skirt trimmed in white, so it can work for several different holidays or times of year. 


One of 3 stores in the same shopping center I visit each day is [Enchantress], where a free group tag and a click of today's date on the board will get you their charming Liana Dress Flowers. There are sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies included, as well as a HUD with 12 texture choices. Each floral print has a solid color already chosen for its midriff and the trim on the scalloped hem, so pretty! In case you're curious, my other stops in that immediate are are FAVOR (free group tag needed) and Le'La (paid group needed) but I am striving for variety and apparently randomness today so they aren't shown ;) 


Designs by Danielle provides my final look of the day, their DbD Snowflake Crop Top gift for the 10th. We just need to walk upstairs and have their free group tag active to click their board, and you'll see midnight mania boards and lucky chairs up there among the many goodies :) So our knotted crop top here shows the classic elegance of black and white contrasting each other, with pale flakes on the darkest possible backdrop. It is provided in Khara, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. If you've read here before, you might already know that I'm wearing a longtime favorite here, the white pair of jeans from the Delizio fatpack which is free on the marketplace. Several colors, all of which are terrific, in system/BOM layers and appliers for Maitreya and Omega. 

I've lost track of how long I have been awake, but I can tell you I've been staring at this computer screen for 10 and a half hours in a row 🥴. Sounds like it's time for a break, don't you think? :) It's been a decent weekend so far, and if things go well tonight I will be sharing another Advent post tomorrow morning. The weather has some intense potential for later though, rain and wind that usually knock my power out, so please keep your fingers crossed for my electricity and internet connections to hang in there. I hope you're all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
