Love The Dragon Hunt

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post is sharing another gridwide hunt, this time the Love the Dragon 7 Hunt by the Harambee-Gwassi charity store. There are $3L prizes inside cute dragon plushies, and you can also find $10L treats inside green snake mugs. I found it so interesting that many of the designers chose to feature the "love" aspect along with the "dragon" part of the theme :) Everyone did an impressive job and I was tickled pink to have bonus reasons to visit these wonderful stores. Inviting all of you to these locations is also an honor, since we all deserve to have the wardrobe of our dreams in SL. We've got just a few days to pick these up since the hunt ends on the 30th, so hurry like you're riding a dragon!

The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. is offering both types of hunt prizes here, so we'll start with the $3L dragon plushie. That holds the PIMP MY DRAGON Tee, whose name alone caught my attention before I even tried it on ;) The multicolored serpentine dragon is coiled on a bed of roses, looking truly magnificent and indeed pimped out. There are standard mesh sizes as well as eBody Classic, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body sizes included on an unpacker HUD. Just click the brand you need and hang onto that HUD for future use if you wish. I find these tank tops to look great with jeans but also low waisted mesh skirts, pants, and whatever I have with coordinating colors. Versatility is awesome!

Their $10L snake mug contains The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. BOOP! Tee, which still has me in stitches and I know Xan is going to adore it too. The image looks like a statue of a dragon, almost gargoyle-like, being touched gently or booped on the nose. Now I know that the motto of a famous school of witchcraft and wizardry is Latin for "never tickle a sleeping dragon", but it says nothing about booping an awake one...would you risk it? I'm going to say that it depends on the dragon and their mood, but it is a loving display so that does match our theme. Same sizes/unpacker HUD as the first treat I shared, and same handy Delizio jeans from the marketplace appear here.

Our GoodVibes Love is in the Lair prize (just $3L) also gave me the giggles, showing the romantic side of these scaly fire-breathing creatures. I'm loving all these pretty tank tops as you can tell, this one being cropped and slightly flared at the hem. The name of the top appears in a pretty font next to the main green dragon, who is snuggling with a heart, while the rest of the fabric is patterned with sketches of dragons in various poses. We receive sizes for Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies. 

One of the most striking features of many dragons is their scales, so the @rOrO Dragon Scale Dress is a loving homage to their beauty. This $3L prize is tucked inside a dragon plushie, and the iridescent colors give an ethereal appearance that I can't stop staring at :) There are Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Prima, Prima Petite, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh body sizes included. I must say, the front and back openings are showing off enough to make a dragon's cheek scales blush! That is not a complaint by the way, lol, just an admiring observation.

For my final look of the evening, I was so happy to see that I got to return to Psyche's Pstyles for another hunt :) This time it's for their $3L Flight of Fancy Dress Dragon Ed, safely hidden in a dragon plushie. I love the pattern on our main fabric, dragons hanging out near castles with hearts and stars decorating the space surrounding them. In the spirit of love for dragons, I'm going to assume that they are visiting royal or noble friends rather than attacking the castles (a trope of so many medieval stories) since they do look very cheerful. The dusky blue trim matches perfectly too :) We receive sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes of this sweet frock.

My outing yesterday was long but mostly good, and I am happy to say that my new favorite pizza place also has excellent stromboli :) I know they're basically the same thing, but I wanted something just different enough and it worked out just right. The weather was good, and I got a nice card for my dad's birthday which was today but I'll be seeing him tomorrow. Apparently he shares his birthday with my favorite hockey team's mascot, LOL, a terrifying beast who likes to throw cakes at fans of opposing teams. I'm sure he's thrilled ;) Gaming with friends as I do most Thursdays was also really enjoyable, so all in all it's been a nice day. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Twisted Into The Void

Hiya everyone! Tonight my post is fairly time-sensitive, since the Twisted Hunt is wrapping up on the 30th. That means we have just over a week left to find the slowly spinning cubes, which are dark black to match the Into The Void theme of this fall round :) Twisted is widely considered the hardest hunt on the grid, and I'd say that is at least partly due to the decoy cubes allowed in each store (13 visible cubes total, at least 1 of which will contain a prize) and the fact that hints are never published. If you need a little assistance, you can join the free group and ask politely for a hint. I used teamwork with my partner Xan since he is both experienced and exceptional at finding tricky hunt objects, and we get to have fun laughing about them over voice chat :) Usually it's about who found one first, or how clever a particular hiding spot may have been. Please note - due to RL circumstances the End Game isn't open yet, but the group will be notified as soon as it is. That is always a huge challenge in itself, and my cataracts will make it even more so this year, yet I will not let that stop me from trying my hardest.

I'm starting with the stunning :: ANTAYA :: Sequin dress "Brenda" BLACK hunt prize. Who can resist that sparkly texture? The dress and sleeves are separate pieces, both in sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. I so appreciate the ability to wear this beauty with or without the sleeves, and am loving how the structured top contrasts with the flowing miniskirt.

Is it silly that I'm picturing a cartoon wolf with his eyes bugging out, whistling at this outfit? :) The Steel & Ink Umbra THF26 prize is not for the shy or wallflower type, as you will most assuredly turn heads in it. The dress, panty, stockings, and boots are all included in Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes, with fishnet galore in deep black. As a reminder, I'm wearing nipple covers that came with my skin here, so without those the nipples will be visible. Pasties would look amazing with this, probably the black tape X style if you've got any of those handy :)

It is always a pleasure to visit @rOrO, and you'll be extra delighted when you find the cube containing their Eden Dress Void prize. This lovely belted long sleeved dress comes down to the ankles, and will fit Erika, Lara X, Legacy, Prima, Reborn, and Star mesh bodies. Did you notice the subtle pattern? It's dark on dark, so definitely in that 'void' realm of the color spectrum. I might add a choker and sandals or neutral pumps, keeping things simple yet elegant.

The [TR] Blackout Dress Set prize from Touryuumon is another plunge into the dark side of fashion and color, with a flirty twist. We receive the top, skirt, and panties, each in sizing for Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn bodies. I honestly can't recall already if the straps we see around the waist are from the skirt, panties, or both ;) The detailed chains on the top and skirt are fantastic details, with a clover shaped clasp at the navel. 

Last but certainly not least for the evening, we get to shine in the Clothes Culture STARDUST dress. This prize includes Altamura, eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Tonic Curvy mesh body sizes of the beautiful sleeveless minidress with slit bodice to show off some cleavage. As you can tell there is some sheen from the lighting of my skybox, and the flecks of glitter in the texture do remind me of sci-fi movies when they travel through the stars. Outer space is certainly a void, with the unknown waiting to be explored, so A+ for theme interpretation here as well :) Admittedly I am very fond of all these designers' creativity and theme usage, because I think they are all magnificent.

My exposure therapy of watching videos of car accidents (dashcam footage) was extremely stressful earlier, and tomorrow I'll be out for a good chunk of the day in a car. Doesn't that sound fun? LOL! My anxiety has many harsh opinions about that, but I'm basically out of food so that is a good motivator. I won't be able to blog tomorrow evening, but a day off should help me feel even more refreshed and ready to go on Thursday :) I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Light of a Clear Blue Morning

 Hiya everyone! Tonight it's time for some Blue SL event group gifts, which means it's also time for me to find a song title with "blue" in it for my post title. It's a habit I started and can't seem to break, LOL, but it also shows how much I continue to enjoy this particular event :) Each round is open from the 18th of one month to the 8th of the following one, so you've got almost 2 weeks left to stop by, join the free group, and claim all these generous gifts and more. There are $50L exclusives for sale each round, and the gifts do change so there's always something new for us to check out. My title honors the one and only Dolly Parton, whose kindness and talent will never be forgotten. It's a beauty of a song that she performed with several other artists including her goddaughter, Miley Cyrus, so be sure to check that out if you are curious. I am comforted that she is at peace with her beloved husband now, but my eyes are still leaking a bit tonight. 

My first look of the evening is the special VIP gift when you enter the building and turn right. Inti is offering their white top, cream top, and cream shorts all in sizes for Kupra, Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn bodies, as well as the deep red shoes I'm wearing here that fit Kupra, Lara X, and Legacy bodies. The ability to mix and match various separates is always a plus in my mind, and the clothing being neutral hues means they'll worth with just about anything in your inventory. 

Upstairs at their display, you can also claim the Inti Cloe black dress by clicking the box and choosing your size. The menu offers Kupra, Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn sizes, and if you need more than one please click again and repeat. The sheer sections and strong boning make this a real head-turner of a look, don't you think? There is a bit of bum cleavage peeking through in that rear view.

We can also feel flirtatious with the KS Designs Pink & Black Bombshell Bra and Ruffle Bottom gift, which is just $1L. The two pieces are each provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Ocacin, Reborn, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh bodies. I did notice when I accidentally added the wrong one (LOL) that they are not all the same color, but I'm very happy with this pretty outfit trimmed with lace and bows in any hue :)

Next we can always count on Allure Couture for a fantastic gift, like this round's Paige Bikini-Skirt Set Lillies Pink. It consists of the bikini top, bikini bottom, shrug, and skirt, all in Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing. The bikini is solid pink, while the skirt and sleeves of the shrug have a lovely floral pattern that made me smile. It is nice to have the sarong style skirt to cover up the thong where appropriate, and of course to add the touch of flowers.

My final look of the night is the stunning @rOrO Cotton Candy Shanti Bodysuit gift. Honestly I have an entire collection of their gifts from various events and groups in teal and pink like this, and I LOVE them all! This treat includes sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. The ombre or gradient of colors makes this a sassy and playful choice for day or night, and I'm sure to reach for it quite often.

It was a heck of a day, still processing the loss of Dolly Parton to find out that we also lost Tim Curry. Those are two irreplaceable and special humans who have made such an impact on this world! Part of me wants to hide in fear of the saying "things happen in threes" and worry about who's next. The rest of me wants to hide because I am now 14 hours away from my dental visit, and my anxiety is having a field day with it. Due to nitrous hangover, lol, I won't be blogging tomorrow evening, but I am trying to remind myself that this is just a cleaning and not a big deal. *deep breaths* There are still many days where the prospect of leaving the house is a big deal though, so I don't mean to dismiss that aspect. It's one of many steps in a long journey. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Sunflower Hunting

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are going hunting, primarily the Malus Park Sunflower Hunt. That sends us searching for pretty yellow sunflowers which are each $5L or less, so there are bargains galore at each stop on the hunt path :) For a bit of variety I am also sharing a CMH Kawaii Summer hunt prize from one of the sunflower hunt stops (Ari-Pari ♥) who were not ready yet when I first blogged selections from that hunt but are good to go now. We all know that RL can become very complex and interfere with time in SL, so I am very understanding and just glad to see that the designer was able to participate after all. It's very exciting to share these budget-friendly beauties with all of you :)

@rOrO is offering their beautiful Khloe Blouse Sunflowers as a $2L prize, and I simply adore it :) The pattern of course matches the theme perfectly, and the style is intriguing with the full long sleeves and deep plunging back. I'd happily wear this in any color or pattern! Find this sunflower and you can claim sizes for Erika, Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Star mesh bodies. I'm wearing the cream pair of Delizio jeans with it, but you can pair it with all sorts of skirts, pants, shorts, or whatever you wish.

More sunny blooms appear on the [Ari-Pari] Sunflower Outfit, which is a fantastic $5L prize. The top and skirt are each provided in Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes, along with a HUD to select from 10 colors apiece. The softly gathered top with square neckline and tiny bow is always a solid color, and the loose fitting mid-thigh length skirt has sunflower pattern options with 10 colors of background to match the shirt's hues. 

Keep exploring [Ari-Pari] to find their Kawaii Summer hunt object too - a striped popsicle that contains the Amikka Outfit for just $1L. That tied tank top looks delightful when paired with the patterned shorts, bursting with kawaii smiling sweet treats of all flavors. This prize includes sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, along with a HUD with 5 solid colors for the top and the same 5 colors as trim and pattern for the shorts. Safe to say that I've found my new favorite casual shorts outfit for bopping around the grid with Xan this summer and fall ;)

Next we head to Psyche's Pstyles, where the spectacular Sunset Sunflowers Dress can be yours for just $1L :) The colors will lead you into autumn with ease, and the pleated style gives the dress an appearance of movement. There are Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes included. I used to automatically think dress = formal, but this is more of an everyday yet special look. 

For my final look of the evening, I switched back over to the [Ari-Pari] Amikka Outfit from photo #3 so I could crouch down and show you my new footwear. That would be our Adore Amore Emi Okobo Sunflowers, a sweet score for just $1L. These gorgeous Japanese sandals are tied across the top of the foot with intricate knots, and are worn in a tiptoe pose with a tall wooden base. Naturally this pair is decorated with gorgeous sunflowers to match our hunt theme :) You might need to raise your avatar's hover height so these beauties aren't sunken into the ground. 

Tomorrow I'm taking the evening off from blogging because of a busy RL day (podiatrist visit, etc.) but will be back Friday with more goodies :) My anxiety is having a field day right now, just from knowing I'll be in a car for a while I guess. The weather might be hot and muggy, so not the most pleasant outing ever but also certainly not the worst. I hope you're all having a peaceful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hunting with Harambee-Gwassi

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post is a bit of a variety, since I started with one hunt and hopped to another by the same folks :) That would be the Harambee-Gwassi charity store, who organize fantastic events and hunts for us to enjoy just about every single month. The first 2 prizes I found were from the July hunt, the Ice Cream Cone Hunt, then the rest are from August's Save The Sea Hunt. I completely understand that not everyone is ready for the new rounds each time the month changes, and am simply mentioning so you know what hunt objects you are looking for :) Also that helps you to know which hints to follow, and if the prize I share is no longer available by the time you read this, you can always check for the newer hunt prizes at that location instead. Each round has 2 hunt items available, for $3L and $10L apiece, so the websites are quite handy to have open to tell you which you seek. Also, you can get a notecard with links, pics, and hints by clicking the hunt sign at participating stores.

My first look is an Ice Cream Hunt prize found in a $3L triple scoop ice cream cone, the Violet Skies - Xanthe Outfit Lime. You'll need to unpack this the traditional way (rez on ground and right click to unpack) because of a no-copy BOM shirt inside, which is a cropped fishnet top you see above as the base layer. The mesh components are the bodysuit and skirt which are designed for Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Nhumana, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The outfit looks just as nice without the fishnet layer as it does with it, so let your personal tastes guide you there :) 

The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. is also running a little behind this month, which means we still have the chance to grab their $10L YOU'RE HOT Tee prize from the Ice Cream Hunt. We just have to find the pretty little cupcake, as this hunt was all about the sugar rush :) The cozy charcoal tank top says "Wow You're Hot" in bold 3D block lettering, and comes in standard mesh sizes as well as eBody Classic, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body versions. It's all on an unpacker HUD so you can deliver what you need right now and hang onto that HUD for future reference if you wish. That's what I always do anyway :)

Time to switch over to the Save the Sea Hunt, for which you can find the ILL Hazar outfit in a $3L oyster shell with pearl inside. This edgy top and skirt set includes sizing for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. I love the plaid on the skirt, looks fantastic with the black leather corset-laced waist and cropped top with open sides! It's going to be right at home in any Goth, alternative, or punk avatar's inventories.

Now I'm curious about the existence of eco-friendly pirates, thanks to the @rOrO Harlow Dress Pirate Print which is a $10L prize from Save The Sea inside a cute blue octopus hunt object. The bare shoulder style is a flirty favorite of mine, and the ruffle around the top and upper arms has such a fun pattern of sailing ships just like a pirate would have or commandeer. There are sizes for Erika, Lara X, Legacy, Pushup, Reborn, and Star mesh bodies included. I did notice an ice cream cone there too, so keep on searching if you'd like something else sweet.

My final look of the night is our $3L prize for Save the Sea (seashell with pearl) from GoodVibes called Moana. Isn't she lovely? I'm certainly feeling nautical and a bit naughty in the open weave dress covered with multicolored shells, while appreciating the two most carefully placed ones that cover the upper essentials ;) We also receive a string bikini bottom for added modesty, so where's your favorite adult beach to wear this to? We receive Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh body sizes of both pieces. 

It was a fun evening of gaming with friends online, and I am pleasantly surprised that my new glasses are ready to be picked up much sooner than expected :) It was supposed to be 2 weeks but I got the text today, and will be headed there before my parents' for dinner tomorrow. I wonder if they felt sorry for me, LOL, or just want to make sure I don't have any more reason to complain ;) Honestly I was very polite about everything and didn't blame anyone but my own brain for feeling too dizzy with the extra strong prescription. I'm eager to get things moving so I can prepare more for the cataract surgeries themselves, as much as I dread them, since it will drastically improve my vision. I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Mesh Body Friends Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I randomly decided to check out some stores who are part of the Mesh Body Friends group, which is currently free to join. That means the treats you find for this group are completely free to you, and I deeply appreciate these generous designers for that :) It always gives me a perfect excuse to do some window shopping too, meaning I tend to pick up demos while I visit or check the current sales areas to try to save some money while supporting the folks who provide these gifts. It is always wonderful to stop by all these stores and see what's new!

First up, we visit Pearl Fashion where we can find the PF::Kenzie 2026 gift for Mesh Body Friends. Isn't it pretty? This sleeveless minidress has keyhole openings both front and back of the bodice, and fun metallic studs to liven things up even more. There are sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies included, along with a HUD that offers 20 colors for the dress and 2 metals. To claim this one you'll need to right click the sign, choose pay, then pick the $1L button but it will be automatically refunded while the gift is delivered. I do encounter lots of vendors like this, possibly more than one vendor creator, and it does keep track of it so there is a record if you ever need to have it redelivered.

Another flirty gift I couldn't resist sharing is LEILANI White Blossoms by COVETED! seen here. The pattern and the style both caught my attention immediately, between the deep color with pale flowers to accentuate the deep neckline and high-low hem. We receive this beauty in sizing for Kupra, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. Please note, this is the store's brand new location, so please take a fresh landmark :)

Our S-Terra orange gift from Suna Designs is a daring combination of bodysuit and slightly sheer skirt, which easily layer together or can be worn individually. Each will fit Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu mesh bodies. The orange color has a coral or peach tint to it that I really enjoy, and think it makes it feel very summery. Yes, I know the style is terrific for hot weather too, but I was referring to the color specifically as an added bonus :)

I also grabbed the Yalin Fashion LISI dress during my explorations, and this is one of my favorite color combinations so I'm a very happy camper. The bare midriff makes it look like two pieces but it's worn as one, in sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, so that's quite a nice range! The cutouts and ties are extra special details that are sure to turn heads.

For my final look of the night, I slipped into the gorgeous @rOrO Tiffany Romper. It's hard to imagine (as with all of these gifts) that it is free just for being part of the right group :) There are Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh body sizes included, as well as a HUD with 8 colors of our fun patchwork animal print. It is dreamy for summer, and is one of those styles that should look great on just about anyone. 

It was a decent evening until I realized I left a bag of M&Ms slightly open, and several huge ants managed to sneak in for a feast. Ugh, now they are trying to crawl all over my desk and go for a swim in my beverage! I guess the fruity scent made them thirsty after all that chocolate. At least my support group session went well before that, and I really do feel it is helpful. I'm adding ant traps to a shopping list, lol, and then I'll be headed into SL in a while to unwind without any multi-legged critters to bother me :) I hope you're all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Blue Savannah

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post comes from the Blue SL Event, which has about a week left on their current round and lots of $50L exclusive sales for us to enjoy. What you'll find here though is several group gifts that you can claim if you've joined their free group, and there are different goodies for group members each month so it is well worth the group slot :) As for the title, I've somehow developed a tradition of using song titles with the word 'blue' in them, and it's become more of a challenge as time goes by. Blue Savannah is a catchy Erasure song from 1990, a synth pop ditty that is romantic but not a slow song. It's not a genre I'm well versed in (pun intended?) so it was fun to look back and remember something I hadn't heard in ages. I also appreciate its reminder that home is where the heart is ♥ so SL truly is my second home. Eventually I might have to reuse some songs, lol!

Let's start with the flirty ELITE - BRASIL group gift, which you can pick up by clicking the word GIFT on their display rather than looking for the traditional blue and white hatbox shaped gift :) The top and shorts are each provided in sizing for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Squish mesh bodies. I'm gobsmacked at how beautiful the design on the top is, and I'd love a recommendation for a Brazilian region to visit in SL that might help me appreciate the natural beauty there even more. I'm also impressed by that spicy rear view, lol.

When you head into the event building and look to the immediate right, you will see a special VIP group gift each round. This time we have two treats in one box from Intisl, and when you click it you'll see a blue menu pop up with choices of body sizes - Kupra, Lara X, Legacy, or Reborn. If you want more than one size, by all means please give it another click and pick another one :) The Intisl Elie dress gold is the beauty on the left above, while Intisl Trace dress blue is looking fashionable to the right. I would ask which one you all prefer, but honestly it doesn't even matter when you get to pick up both for free :) As for my favorite, that depends on the destination and I think the gold dress looks hot for an evening at a club, while the blue is shorter and feels like a fun date choice. 

Our Nut & Squirrel Apsara casual gift outfit is a playful pairing of tank top, sleeves, leggings, and a belly chain that will all fit Belleza Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Reborn, and Juicy mesh bodies. There are HUDs as well, so we have 30 colors for the top, 30 for the sleeves, 20 solid colors and 20 patterns for the leggings, and 5 metals for the chains. Just use the arrows on the lower left of each HUD to see the next page of options. The top has a chain on it too by the way, just to help pull the look together :) Guess what I'm wearing around the grid tonight?

So I may have gasped out loud just a little when I spotted the beautiful @rOrO Cotton Candy Daisy Dress gift, but just look at it - can you blame me? :) Flowers make me happy, and this color combo is always a winner. The style brings thoughts of breezy summer evenings, maybe dancing with someone special to our title song. This gift includes sizes for Erika, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn bodies. 

My final look this evening is the Jada Shorts Set Teal gift from Allure Couture. I'm a huge fan of their creations, so I couldn't wait to unpack this treat! There is an unpacking HUD so you can choose to deliver Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, or Waifu mesh body sizes. That folder contains the top, shorts, and choker & sleeves which are linked together. The top and sleeves have a gorgeous floral pattern, while the choker and shorts are solid dusky teal. I'm wearing just the top and shorts on the right so you can see what it looks like to omit the choker & sleeves piece, just as lovely of course :) 

Whew, it's a steamy week out there! It was 78 degrees in here for a while, but it's down to 74 so I am feeling relief. My plans of gaming with friends for tomorrow got canceled unfortunately, due to plans that they forgot and can't change, but it's not a big deal and I still chat with one of them daily online. It's fun to have a gab session on the phone too of course, but I am very easygoing about plans changing since I've had to cancel things last minute plenty of times. I'm really excited about the new month and all the new rounds of hunts and events that are in store for us in SL, since you never know what you'll find at each of them :) I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post had me doing a deep dive into more songs with "blue" in the title, so that means it's time for the Blue SL event :) I have no idea why I started that habit, but each month I've been continuing it and I truly enjoy the challenge. So our event is a very fun one, with exclusive offers and $50L sales at each booth. You'll also find a group gift at many of them, mostly in hatbox style boxes tied with blue ribbon. The Blue SL group is free to join, and rather than just celebrating a yearly anniversary with gifts they tend to offer them every single month :) I've got the Linda Ronstadt version of the title song in my head by the way, which one do you know?

I'm sorry, did I roll my eyes out loud?  That is what the top of our [SINiNC] I'm Sorry Group Gift says, and the top and shorts are linked to be worn as a one-piece outfit. There are sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Reborn, Juicy Rolls, and Waifu mesh bodies. I hope it's not too surprising that I have in fact said or thought this exact expression, usually when a family member or the housemate decides to act foolishly.

I couldn't resist showing you the @rOrO Ashley & Everly Hearts Pattern 3 outfit, since it has a great mix of flirty and romantic styling. The bare shouldered top and full skirt will each fit Erika, Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Star mesh bodies. So pretty, and it is suitable for any season or lots of occasions. 

Sometimes we get lucky that among the gifts are separates that we can pair together if we wish. For example, The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. SWIM Tee is a versatile cutie that will go with a wide range of pants, shorts, leggings, and more. It has the word "Swim" in pink above the ocean, but there are a few suspicious tentacles so I hope you are a fast swimmer ;) This tee is provided in standard mesh sizes as well as eBody Classic, eBody Reborn, Waifu, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body versions, all via unpacker HUD so you can just choose the one you need. I added the Intisl Noir pants black gift which is the perfect neutral to wear with any color top you wish, then shoes to match either the pants or the shirt. Our gift includes Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn mesh body sizing. I mainly showed the rear view so you could see that there are no pockets back there, providing a sleek silhouette from behind.

Nut & Squirrel are also offering a sweet treat for us, their lovely Lindsey dress for all group members. The wrap style is a perennial favorite of mine, something I remember from peeking at fashion magazines in doctors' waiting rooms as a kid :) There are sizes for Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies included, along with 4 HUDs. The left side and right side each have 2, with 20 colors apiece, and one for each side is solid colors while the other is stripes. As you can tell, I enjoyed mixing things up and texturing one side striped with the other solid, but you can do whatever makes you happy of course :)

My final look of the evening is a sassy outfit from Allure Couture called Brandi Shorts Set Blue+Pink. I always look forward to their gifts, and this is certainly a great example of why :) Our blue jacket, pink shorts, and blue boots are all provided in sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. Those laced up boots and booty shorts make for such a fun rear view!

Greetings from day two of a mini heat wave...I'm more of an "everything in moderation" type gal, including temperatures, so you can imagine that I am not at my best. Thank goodness for fans, and that I am a night owl who can enjoy when the temps drop in the darkness. It's going to be really weird when Thursday is 35 degrees cooler than Wednesday, thanks to lots of rain headed my way. Power outages are a strong possibility from the lightning or wind, so I will probably be a bit more nervous tomorrow. Otherwise I've got tasty food and a tivo full of things to enjoy, so my day shouldn't be too bad. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Blue Bayou

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting the monthly Blue SL event, which is open until the 8th of May so you have time to enjoy. That might include picking up demos for the $50L sales offers or exclusives, and if you like what you see here tonight it should also consist of joining their free VIP group (if not already a member) and claiming some generous gifts :) They generally have new gifts each month, so it is always delightful to stop by and see what catches your eye. I'd developed a habit of using song titles with "blue" in them for my post titles, so I am sticking with that theme once again. I'm also taking suggestions for future rounds ;)

My first look comes from the wonderful Allure Couture, who are regulars here at Blue SL and always have something special. Their Kimono Set Pink comes on an unpacker HUD that lets you choose your body from Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu sizes. The folder will contain the kimono, C-string, and heels in the version you've selected. I've noticed that their gifts are frequently this shade of dusky mauve pink, and I am such a fan of it :)

Another brand I look forward to seeing here is @rOrO, and their Whitney PinkNTeal Jumpsuit is a perfect example of why :) These colors look phenomenal together, and the jumpsuit is the right touch of breezy and flirty with that fun opening in the front. There are sizes for Erika, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Nhumana, Prima, Reborn, and Star mesh bodies, with a HUD for the belt that offers 5 colors plus an 'off' option. So lovely!

I combined two gifts for one terrific seasonal outfit here. The Angels Amazing Creations gift is called Hello Spring Shirt, and it will certainly wake up the spirit of spring with the vibrant yellow hue :) We receive a classic M size as well as Freya, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Reborn, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh body versions. The floral wreath image on the front says "Welcome Spring" in the middle. It pairs really well with the Intisl jeans black gift, which will fit Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn bodies. I got a kick out of the distressed style, with a few rips both front and back that show just how well worn and loved a pair of jeans can become.

Next we get flirtatious with the Nut & Squirrel Freyja gift. The way this dress is laced up in the back and tied with a sweet bow is just *chef's kiss*, lol, and it is a really versatile treat. The dress fits Erika, Kupra Bimbo, Legacy, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu mesh bodies, and includes a HUD with 25 colors. The hardest part is picking just two colors to show off ;) 

Sometimes we just need something to snuggle, and the [.KK.] Cute Blue Doll Plushie gift from Khaos Kreations is ready to fill that need. Isn't she a sweetie? She's got a built in hold pose just like you see here, and I think the way her big blue bow matches her eyes is my favorite detail. 

All I can think about tonight is the hockey game I just watched, LOL, because it was just that exciting :) My team has had a rough road to the playoffs, and are playing truly exceptionally so I am a happy camper. The 4th game of the best of 7 series (currently 3-0) is going to be so wild to watch! Meanwhile I've got a hair appointment tomorrow along with a few other errands while I'm out, so no time for a blog post tomorrow evening. I'll be back on Thursday though. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
