Happy Uber-Versary

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are helping the Uber Event celebrate a huge milestone, their 10th anniversary round :) How do we celebrate such things in SL? Well, quite often that involves gifts for the visitors, and this is one of those instances as there are shiny teal giftboxes at nearly every display for $0L with no group tag needed. There was one (not shown) set for sale for $10L and one set to a group (also not shown), otherwise all are free with click or purchase for zero. From the landing zone there are two openings with paths that don't connect, so be sure to check one side fully then walk through the landing area and over to the other half :) It's worth it as you'll see, and I have always been delighted with every visit to Uber and their team of talented designers. 


My first look is two gifts combined that made me whisper "ooh yeah!" out loud when I tried them on together :) [The Forge] Arwen Top, Black Lace is a fantastic gift of bra and top each in sizing for Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. We can wear the strapless bra alone or with the sheer lace shrug, and did you notice the double chains across the back? Those are holding the see-through bra in place quite nicely. Then I added our *CK* Runway Skirt FATPACK gift from Candy Kitten. This fun denim miniskirt is cut low on the hips and has lots of terrific options. There are eBody, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes included, as well as a HUD with 15 choices for the skirt, 15 colors for the belt, and 2 metals. Three of the skirt fabrics have the images you see above on them, with the rest being solid denim hues. 


Have Unequal is offering a lovely free gift called [HU] Hadley LongShirt_Stone&White Dots !! . At first glance you might think of a retro shirt dress, but look closer and you'll see the flirty details :) It fits Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, and Petite X mesh bodies, and includes a handy HUD with fabric or wool textures (wool is on the left above, slightly striped) and lots of other choices - 18 textures for collar and cuffs, 6 button colors, 13 for the belt, 6 metals, and 6 harness metals. There are also options to show or hide the belt, the harness, and even the lower portion of the dress so the entire skirt can go poof if you wish. 


Next we see another very versatile treat, the [seeker] Aly GiftPack. This playful dress comes in sizing for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Petite, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu bodies, with panties in similar sizes (Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Lara X, Legacy, Reborn). The HUD provided has 4 color choices for the main dress, 8 for the border, and 4 for the panties, with several hide/show options for various portions of the outfit. For example, I have the midriff section hidden on the right above :) 


Summer is on its way out for the year, but it can stick around all year long in SL and especially if you're wearing this cutie! The Carol's Store - Izzie Dress Blue looks just as beautiful coming and going, thanks to the crossed straps tied sweetly in the back and the ruffled empire waist. There are Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Momma, and Reborn mesh body sizes. The floral pattern looks so pretty in blue!


My final look of the evening is a generous gift with lots of sex appeal, the Havoc. Remi Dress. Fatpack. The style looks like a slim fitting dress slit open in the front, tied very loosely to show off cleavage and midriff, and layered over a miniskirt of the same length as the dress. We receive sizes for Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Peach, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, as well as a HUD with an impressive 38 colors to select from. So many amazing choices!

It was a fairly typical Monday here, oh and I wanted to mention in case anyone else is having crashing issues with Firestorm and the new PBR release...with Xan's advice I did a clean reinstall over the weekend and found folders and files for 4 different versions on my PC from prior installs (not clean). I was really hopeful that things would be better, and there was a slight improvement as far as not crashing the first night even after testing with lots of teleporting and loading crowded places. My lag has increased considerably though and I seem to be rebuilding my entire inventory each time I login, as though I'd cleared cache (which I did not!) but then this morning I crashed for the first time since reinstalling. So where does that leave me, you may wonder? Pretty much waiting for Firestorm to release a better version, while considering the possibility of rolling back to the prior version if things get too rough. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
