Hippity Hoppity Time

 Hiya everyone! Tonight it's time to explore the Hippity Hoppity Hunt, which is the spring holiday hunt event at Malus Park. The zen gardens, memorial garden, refuge, and oceanside dock in the southwest corner of the region are all in play as places for the variously colored eggs to be hidden, and we have lots of great designers who've carefully placed these eggs for $25L or less for us to find :) I always have a wonderful time visiting Malus Park, and you can find some info and the hunt keys on the park's website. Region hunts are fun for being a one-stop shopping kind of situation, for those days when SL gets cranky and doesn't want to let you teleport to multiple places in one login session (yes, that is the voice of years of experience) but you still want to find affordable treats from a variety of designers. The hunt runs until the 30th of April, so we have just over 2 weeks to enjoy.


[Ari-Pari] is the mastermind, or master of ceremonies, behind our hunt, so it's no surprise that the designer Ariana has some fantastic prizes awaiting :) There are in fact 5 eggs of hers, for $5L apiece, and I've got two of their prizes on in my first photo. The April Outfit - Lemon is our skirt set on the left, with the Sky version appearing to the right. Each consists of the top and skirt, both in sizes for Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. The top has a cute Peter Pan style collar and 3/4 length sleeves, just right for weather that can still have cool days and evenings. As for the skirt, well I cannot resist a crisply pleated plaid and especially in pastel hues :)


I randomly chose 2 more of those five treats, so I'm wearing the [Ari-Pari] April Outfit - Peach on the left and [Ari-Pari] April Outfit - Sage on the right. These are provided in the same sizing as the two above, and I have to recommend picking up more than one if you like to mix things up :) I generally enjoy doing that whenever an outfit allows by being separate pieces in more than one color, just a fun potential bonus.


Next we see one of the delightfully clever prizes from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co., this one being their HIP HOP BUNNY Tee. The egg is just $10L and contains an unpacker HUD with their new size set, 5 standard mesh sizes as well as versions for eBody Classic, eBody Reborn, Waifu, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Lara X Petite, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. Just click the brand you want delivered, and hang onto the HUD for future reference :) I'm almost embarrassed to admit I used to delete the sizes I thought I'd never use, which I eventually regretted so having this style of HUD would have been so handy.


These two prizes are also from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. as you can tell, and at just $5L each they are so irresistible! On the left you see the DANDELION WISHES Tee, a perfect choice for spring with "Butterfly Kisses Dandelion Wishes" on the front adorned with the mentioned items. They show up beautifully against the burgundy (or is it maroon?) background, don't you think? The goodie on the right is our SHADY BEACH Tee prize, which gave me a sly chuckle. I spent many summer days enjoying sunny beaches, and a shady one would have made me expect rain or at least storm clouds like I've had in my RL area far too often lately. Both of these prizes are provided with the same unpacking HUD and sizes as the Hip Hop Bunny one, and I'm wearing my favorite Delizio jeans in both photos in blue. That is a marketplace fatpack freebie that I wind up wearing here quite frequently, as BOM and the appliers (Omega and Maitreya) in several colors offer such versatility.


Do your nails need a little love this season? Trick question since they always need and deserve love ♥. If you find both of the backSTORY eggs for just $10L each, you can dress up your digits in these glittery goodies. The top portion of the photo shows the Easter Glitter Nails - Pink & Silver, and the lower part with my left hand is the Easter Glitter Nails - Pink & Gold set. Each has a fantastic manicure of sparkly lavender with metallic accent nails and French tips, on mesh nails in a flattering square shape. These will fit Belleza, Gen X, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn hands, just hide the nails with the body's HUD and add your new mesh tips :) I think the length is just right for the shape, and the style works so well for our SL hands which tend to have slender and shapely fingers.

It was a wet and wild weekend, lol, thanks to lots of storms rolling through the area both days. I managed to go out twice when it was clear though, a Saturday outing and my Sunday therapy session. I did okay with both, nothing too terrible, and I have a couple of trips planned for the coming week. I've got a few potentials for upcoming blogs too, so my SL adventures are not strictly planned but at least in the idea stages :) I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
