Hiya everyone! Tonight I feel like Santa digging into a sack of gifts to pull out some more treats to share, this time from the Palomma Plaza Christmas tree. There are so many wonderful gifts under there, free for all members of their group which is also free to join. I still miss Palomma dearly, but I am comforted by seeing her legacy from The Free Dove continuing in the very same building :) This time of year, it feels right to focus on generosity and kindness while thanking these designers for showing us those very traits. Let's all grab a cup of hot cocoa and open some gifts!
First up, I got festive in our Delicatt Couture - Irene dress Christmas gift. This playful minidress has a single shoulder strap adorned with a bow, and a full skirt speckled with gold. There are sizes for Altamura, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies, along with an 8 color HUD. All the shades look amazing with the white trim, black waistband and bow, and of course our gold "Merry Christmas" carefully written on the front.
Lots of my Christmas wardrobe in SL looks best suited to the North Pole weather, but not this RoxAnne Lindy Dress gift! It's one of 3 gifts I found from them under the tree by the way, randomly selected since I appreciate them all :) This dress has a daring belly cutout and diagonal hemline, two details that are sure to turn heads. We receive Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Bombshell, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, Peach, and Star mesh body sizes, plus a HUD with 8 texture choices. They are numbered rather than having examples on the HUD, so you get a bit of a fun surprise each time you click one :)
For those colder days or nights, I'm feeling mighty cozy in the Travesty Velma Christmas gift I also found beneath the tree. It looks like a sweater and skirt but is all one piece, in sizing for Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Prima Busty, Prima Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. I'm gigging at realizing that this style does in fact resemble the famous outfit of Velma from Scooby Doo, in more December-appropriate colors of course ;) The Santa on the front has a kind expression that also made me smile.
Black Angel has carefully wrapped their RITA XMAS OUTFIT by BA Store for us to find under Palomma's tree, and I'm getting a mix of cheery 80s vibes as well as a sexy modern twist from the harness. That harness as well as the top, skirt, and boots will all fit Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The bow I'm wearing is also provided, and is adjustable so you can fit most hairstyles. The HUD enclosed will let us pick from 10 colors apiece for the bow, top, harness, skirt, and boots, with 5 metals. I'm sure it's the bow that made me think 80s, although the first one I thought of was Madonna and it was a black bow. This one is nicer from being more colorful :)
My final look of the evening will help us look elegant all year long. It is the [Vips Creations] - Female Outfit - [GloriaA] gift, one of several from under the tree, and starts with a high collar gown in 5 standard mesh sizes and a fitmesh version for classic avatars, along with Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes. The included HUD offers 9 colors to choose from, and you can just see the ivory heels peeking out from beneath the gown on the right up there...there are Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink high feet sizes included. Ivory is a great neutral for any of the gown's colors, and there's a bit of glitter to it so the heels are a terrific addition.
All I'm going to say about the mouse situation here is that our grand total thus far is 5 caught and released, mostly because one of the traps no longer sets correctly so it is just one trap at a time instead of two. Otherwise my day was focused on the housemate getting the car repaired again (a leak decided to return after prior repair) and a much more fun evening of Hello Kitty gaming :) Friends make everything better, and this particular friend always keeps me up to date on the trends I miss out on (she is on the ticky tocks, and I am not, LOL) and helps suggest places I should check out on my weekly outings. It's encouraging, and she is generally a cheerful sort that boosts my mood every time we talk. Tomorrow is dinner at the parents', and I think she said she's making teriyaki chicken which sounds tasty to me. It's well below freezing out right now (26 degrees) so I really could use some hot tea or cocoa. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
