Hiya everyone! Tonight I've got some Holiday Shop & Hop gift to share, this time from the Forsythia region which is one of 18 to explore there. Each region has 20 designers, all of whom have their best seasonal wares for sale including discounts, and of course the generous gifts :) Those are what I'll be showing here, and I really enjoy doing this because it reminds all of you to enjoy some shopping and free treats now that the big holiday is over. The season is still here, and a brand new year is just around the corner, so our wardrobes could probably use a little refreshing.
My first look this evening is a gorgeous top from BONNICCI called Amber XMAS. This flirtatious top looks heart shaped in the front, and can be worn either with or without the puffy sleeves which are gathered above the elbow and at the wrist. Each is provided in Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh body sizes, with a fun pattern of green and white Santa hats on a bright red background. What will you wear yours with first?
I had to laugh at the Stiff - Noctern Shirt - Extra 6 gift, which says "When you're dead inside but it's Christmas" over and beneath a skeleton wearing a Santa hat while holding a green bauble :) It could be interpreted as Goth, but I think it also suits anyone who is just tired of this season. There is sizing for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies included of this cropped short sleeve tee. If I weren't happily rocking my Delizio jeans, I would probably wear this with red and green plaid leggings or a sassy little skirt.
Look who found another top! This cinched tube top is our Ruxy-Cristina gift, and a quite versatile one at that. It is created to fit Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn mesh bodies, and includes a HUD with 10 colors each for the top and the gems in the middle of the stars. Mixing and matching is always fun, and this way we can wear it with just about any pants or skirts we desire :)
It's so cold outside in RL right now that the !APHORISM! - Trench Coat Bordeaux [Ltd Ed Gift] is absolutely right up my alley. Our new coat has four pockets, a slim attached belt, and several large buttons to help us keep it snug around our curves. The gift includes sizes for Classic, Classic Dainty, Curvy, Freya, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, and Reborn mesh bodies, along with a HUD offering 12 colors each for the belt, pockets, and buttons. I like the idea of the pockets matching the main coat as I did on the right, but then I couldn't resist giving the belt and buttons the same pop of color.
My final look tonight is the adorable @rOrO Sadie Xmas Set Dress. This gift looks so comfy and warm, with the versatility of 3 different colors each with 2 sayings on the front, for a total of 6 options via HUD. We receive Erika, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Star mesh body sizing of this sweet treat.
How was everyone's Christmas? Mine was pretty good, despite a few hiccups with the food. I've mentioned before that my parents and I make pizzas on Christmas day, and that my parents have to eat gluten free...well sometimes they have trouble finding gluten free pizza dough, and they tried a new brand that was refrigerated (not frozen) and it was just not cooperating. She had them sitting on their individual greased trays, and then tried to stretch them out like usual...they wouldn't spread and cracked instead, just tearing into chunks. A rolling pin didn't help, and eventually she got two pieced together about an inch thick and looking like a bizarre mosaic, LOL! My parents used those, and for mine we used a frozen crust that she usually has for quiches. She said it was the worst pizza she's had in her life, but my dad didn't seem to care because he'll pretty much eat anything. Mine was fine, and I have leftovers for tomorrow or whenever. We all laughed a lot at the absurdity of the situation, and it'll be a fond funny memory like the time at Thanksgiving 30+ years ago when my great aunt (a phenomenal cook/baker) made pumpkin pie with salt instead of sugar. The farmers market is canceled tomorrow because of snow and icy weather, so it'll be a cozy day at home with hot tea and catching up on TV and things :) I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
