FLF Bday Bash

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm excited about the FLF Bday Bash '26, which is short for the Fifty Linden Fridays sales event and their birthday bash. I enjoyed it very much last year too, so of course when I found out about this round I was a very eager magpie :) For lots of events with group gifts you'd be looking for traditionally styled giftboxes, but here at FLF the gift holders are cups of rainbow shaved ice like a snowcone but in cup form. Click each one with the FLF group tag active, and it's free to join so all these goodies are yours at no cost whatsoever. Of course we have plenty of $50L offers to partake in too, for the fifty linden part of the name :) Sales and gifts, who can resist? Obviously I couldn't, and I'm glad we have until the 4th of September to visit as many times as needed to check out all 100+ designers.

I'm starting out the post with the very sexy Casadel "Lily" Mini Dress Purple gift. The lavender shade is stunning, and I'm captivated by the daring openings and loosely laced skirt slit. There are sizes for Classic, Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu bodies, along with a 12 color HUD for the ropes. This brand has a style that is sure to turn heads, and this gift is no exception :)

I suspect that -Pixicat- is celebrating Summerween with their Ema Kimono (Bats) gift :) Either that or it's just a nod to Halloween a tiny bit early, and I expect lots of you will find that appealing. The modern styled kimono has a wide pleated belt and short skirt, while the top is even more faithful to the traditional garment. Our gift includes Legacy, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu sizing, as well as a HUD with 27 colors each for the collar and belt. I appreciate the combination of classic and contemporary :)

I've combined two wonderful gifts here, so let's start from the top. That would be our [WAZ] Contour Rib Lounge Shirt (250 Stars) gift from Wazzer Works. It comes in sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, with corresponding alpha layers and a HUD to apply the texture you see above. It is a default solid white before you use the HUD, still wearable but I personally prefer the knit texture. LEROY has 3 separate gifts for us, all next to each other so be sure to click the entire trio of shaved ice cups individually :) One of those contains their Rebeca Pants - Lilac seen here, a gorgeous pair of flowy pants with playful openings down the front of each leg. They fit Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn mesh bodies. 

The lovely LEROY - Nika Dress - White is in another icy treat cup, and I am mesmerized by the pearly shimmer. This beauty is provided in sizing for Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. I'm sure you noticed the sweet treat in my left hand, which is our [Apika] Bubble Tea & Croissant - Gift. There are left and right hand versions included, both a rich boba tea with delicious looking croissant resting atop the cup. The croissant looks like it either has chocolate or cinnamon inside, which would you prefer? With SL our imaginations allow it to be anything we wish. 

Sorry, I got a little hungry for my final look of the evening, but I promise not to type with my mouth full ;) The *>Kiu<* - Party Cookies_FLF Gift Amoeba is very tasty looking, decorated with white icing dotted with various colors to make it bright and eye-catching. Mouthies are such playful additions to any sort of outfit, so I simply couldn't resist sharing.

I'm having a rough night because I tried my new glasses for a while, and they had the same effects of severe dizziness and nausea. I put them on about 6:30 tonight and threw in the towel about 8, so I wore them about the same length of time as the first pair with very similar results. My stomach might never forgive me at this rate, heh, but once I feel better I will try to figure out what on earth to do next. I hope you're all having a good day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Scoops

 Hiya everyone! Tonight it's time to explore the sewers again, with some more Scoop-N-Score hunt prizes. This SL Syndicate annual event is particularly tricky this year, with 2 levels of sewer pipes to examine, which you can navigate by clicking the ladders you'll run across as you wander through this maze. It was an impressive challenge that made me grateful for Xan's assistance, since he is much better than I am with mazes and the facts and figures part of this. We've got at least 260 poops to find, all of which contain terrific free prizes. We certainly earn these rewards ;) You've got all month to visit and enjoy the shopping up on the sunny side of things before diving below into the spooky darkness of the sewers. As I've mentioned in my other posts, please be aware that the sewers contain adult content (sex toys, penises, mature language, etc.) and spiders, blood, gore, body parts, creepy dolls...a little bit of everything really! There are various rooms and corners with different decorations, but it's mainly a labyrinth of pipes.

For my first look, I am wearing the :: DETENTION :: Cruel Summer Shirt - Black - prize, a cropped top with fuzzy edges and an image on the front that calls to mind a movie that just might make you Scream ;) This prize fits eBody, Mounds, Waifu, Lara X, and Legacy mesh bodies. I think that [Apika] decided we need some company in the sewers, or as a reminder of how much fun we had there, with their Poop Animesh - Unicorn friend in my left hand. There are 3 versions in each color (left hand, right hand, and head) as there are multiple poops that contain these little buddies. Each has flies zipping around because even our companions deserve friends, lol, and you can click the top of their heads (?) to change or hide the hovertext that allows you to name them. I hid mine, and it took several clicks because I kept missing and spinning around instead. I think I amused him, as he is grinning at me...

We managed to find all 4 presents from The Muses, so I'm sharing them two by two. The Ritual Dress - Moss is the pretty frock on the left, while Ritual Dress - Soil is the earthy colored dress on the right above. Each of these lovely prizes includes Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes. The deep V neckline front and back is such a nice touch, and I am definitely a fan of the intricate embroidered pattern on the skirt to match the waistband and sleeves. 

Next I did a side-by-side look of The Muses - Ritual Dress - Brick to the left, and Rust is the pretty shade on our right. Since they're the same style as the prior photo, they come in the same sizes to fit lots of popular mesh body brands and mods. I noticed there are other colors available to purchase up at the shopping event, so be sure to check that out too if you like :)

One of the trio of UNA prizes is this amazing UNA. Daynarys Sky outfit. It does not have a size indicated, but includes the dress, skirt, belt, cape, and collar you see above. It fit my Lara X quite nicely, and I had tried it on with Legacy the other day which also was a good fit. There is also a HUD provided with 16 colors each for cape and skirt, and 14 gem hues. 

For my final look of the night, I am enjoying our UNA. Lilit Dress Blue prize. There are solid and sheer versions of this elegant gown, in sizes for eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies. I was still wearing Lara X so I did a bit of alpha-ing, and realized it fit pretty well :) The deep neckline will frame your favorite necklace beautifully (and your cleavage!) while the daring side slit shows off your entire left leg for added va-va-va-voom!

It was a nice day here, with cooler weather and a fun visit to my parents' for dinner. On the way we passed by a farm that has some alpacas, and I got a good laugh out of seeing two of them rolling around on their backs like when a dog is scratching themselves on a rug. Then they each just sat down, perfectly content, so they must have hit the right spots ;) I never knew they did that, and I really want to interact with one now. My dad said the ones he's petted have been very cuddly and friendly. Yes, I am a bit jealous, lol, but I think I will get the chance eventually. Otherwise I've been planning my weekend, writing a shopping list, and reminding myself periodically that my therapy on Sunday is 3 hours earlier so I don't brainfart and miss it. I hope you all have a beautiful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
