Happy Anniversary ACCESS

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post we celebrate the ACCESS Event's 7th anniversary, which we do with group gifts for their free VIP group. Just look for the pretty teal giftboxes at many of the displays, and give each one a click with that group tag active :) This round just opened and lasts until the 8th of July, so we have plenty of time to visit, pick out demos, and decide on purchases as well as indulging in these generous gifts.

My first look of the evening is the lovely Elune. Layla Dress - Pink gift. It comes in sizes for Legacy and Reborn mesh bodies, along with black panties and white panties in each size as well. The lacy sleeves are a beautiful match for the hemline's trim, with the corset style top adding to the romance.

I'm always excited to see a gift from Kaithleen's at any event, so their Ashley Romper - Green really helped to make my day :) The dropped sleeves and corseting look terrific, then the shorts section hugs every curve. There are sizes for Belleza Classic, Belleza Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Juicy Boobs, Waifu, and Waifu Rolls bodies included. We also receive a HUD, which offers 16 colors each for 4 different sections - sleeves, sheer midriff, boning, and waistline. Keep it all green, go all one complementary color, or go hog wild and do all sorts of fun combinations, it's all up to you!

This look starts with the Eliavah ~ Aiko Blouse [Inverse Pink Cow GIFT] which is a beauty with gently gathered sleeves and slightly cropped waist. It comes in Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizing, with a HUD to choose from 45 colors for the lacing on the sleeves and 53 for the buttons. I paired this with our Gaia - viki high waist leggings/fullpack gift, which is a very versatile treat that fits Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. I'm sure you can tell that there's a HUD in there too, and that offers 25 solid colors for us to change things up at any time.

The Gaia gift also came in very handy to help me share this playful American Beauty - 'Sienna' Top - Premium Pack gift. Just right for summer, it starts with a bandeau that is held in place by straps wound around the neck and waist, crisscrossing their way right into my heart ;) It includes Legacy, Reborn, Juicy Boobs, and Waifu mesh body sizes, along with a HUD offering 9 colors to choose from. I think it'll look great with just about any bottom, from itty bitty shorts to your favorite skirt and much more.

Our "Off-Line" x "Rose" Dress / Cherry gift is my final look of the evening, and a stunning way to wrap up any post. The style caught my attention with the fun openings and cinched fabric, showing off without showing too much ;) It is provided in sizes for Freya, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Hourglass, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies.

Whew, this weekend was quick but busy. Xan and I worked a lot more on the MadPea hunt, and are still far short of the points needed to unlock all the levels. Last night we went somewhere that had 21 items hidden, lol, so it felt like Christmas! We do work on it a little each night, but are running out of time with less than a week remaining. Therapy was decent, and I am still trying to figure out what to do for my outings this week. Grocery shopping sounds tempting, not a huge trip but just to pick out a few healthy snacks and beverages. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More ACCESS Treats

Hiya everyone! Tonight we get to take a look at even more group gifts for the ACCESS event's 2nd anniversary. The group is free to join, and the gifts are plentiful! You can claim them by clicking all the teal gift boxes you see, at nearly every display of the entire full sim of terrific sales items. It might not be as crowded today as those first few opening days, but just in case there is a cam shopping sim you can try to get into if the main sim is full. You can use your camera controls to look over to the main sim and click things, which is so handy for these popular events. This event has plenty to offer for the guys as well as us gals, so be sure to let all your friends know, they will thank you!

My first look is a fun floral tube top, the gift from fleur. called daisy tube top summer. It comes in Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, and can be paired with just about any skirt or pants you wish. I am wearing it with blue jeans from Delizio that you can find for free on the marketplace, a gift that includes several colors in system/BOM layers plus appliers for Omega and Maitreya.

Another playful top you can find among these group gifts is the Shelby Crop - Alien from -sixx-. It is provided in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, and has a multicolored alien face on the front. This very cropped shirt is lifted even higher on one side, just barely covering what needs to be covered ;) 

I am feeling pretty in pink here, thanks to the generous gift from ShyDoll :) Their Alissa Rose consists of the bodysuit and sheer top (seen on the right layered over the bodysuit) each in sizes for Alice, Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies. There is something so charming about the translucent blouse, with ruffled collar and gathered in two places to draw in the full sleeves.

Next I wrapped myself in the American Beauty gift called 'Taya' Dress Orange, a shiny strapless mini in a bold color. This gift includes Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes. The back looks a bit tighter, with a long zipper holding things together. I decided to accessorize it to draw even more attention to the neckline, so I added the Mira Choker - Nude from [[ Masoom ]]. It has versions fitted for Isis/Freya, Hourglass/Physique, Maitreya, and Legacy bodies, and there is a HUD included for blend/mask so you can adjust those if needed. This is a very eye-catching look that I can envision wearing with lots of different outfits.

My final look of the evening is from Kaithleen's, their Dareon Bodysuit - Mint gift. It is a knee length, formfitting bodysuit that comes in eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizing, with a HUD offering 17 colors each for the upper and lower trim. You can change them separately as I did on the right, or even use the exact mint shade as the main outfit for a single color look. I haven't decided where would be best to wear this outfit other than working out, so I hope to see your ideas on flickr or twitter :) My avi doesn't work out much, other than walking which I enjoy in RL too. 

It was a stressful day simply from having to leave the house, but things went smoothly once I got to my appointment. Everything was clean (the smell of lysol was everywhere LOL) and the staff all wore masks and took appropriate precautions, and I used hand sanitizer a few times while I was there. My parents had an appointment at the same office in the morning, so I feel better knowing that all 3 of us were in a relatively safe environment because of the precautions. Now I am trying to relax and prepare for the next few days' blog posts, and I am trying to make sure I have something for dinner tomorrow evening :) It's all good, and I am focusing on positive and productive things. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Shiny Shabby Anniversary Treats

Hiya everyone! I had a serious case of SL crash-itis but I am back and pleased to be so :) I am bringing you some terrific anniversary gifts from the Shabby Shiny event, no group is needed for these generous goodies just a viewer that doesn't mind really crowded sims (like mine apparently does!). The event runs until March 10th, so plenty of time to visit and browse for fantastic bargains and lots of gifts.

My first look of the night is a gorgeous gown from PEQE called Lady of Time in Pink. She comes in standard mesh sizes and features such a lush color and texture, sure to be a hit wherever you wear it. 

Next we have a really intriguing dress from American Beauty, their Turtle Chin Knit Dress in Dark Grey. This made me giggle as I'd never heard that term before, turtlenecks but not turtle chin, but it's clear that it comes up higher than a turtle neck, keeping our pretty chins warm when it's breezy out. My lovely earrings weren't very visible so I went in for a closeup...they are multiple big hoops (one piece though) from Minimal. Jewelry is always a pefect gift, isn't it? :)

This very cute outfit is actually one mesh piece, our fun present from M.Birdie simply called 2015 Last Winter Gift. The outer layer shirt says Dairy Made Ice Cream, and the color did put me in mind of some nice rich chocolate. The attached skirt has more of a reddish tone, and I think the alpha layer isn't playing nicely with my shape (that's been happening a lot lately but usually in the boob area) so even the Large size looks a bit odd at the hem. This outfit is provided in Small, Medium, and Large sizes by the way :)

For my last look of the night, I went with a very sexy teddy, and a grumpy looking teddy ;) My lingerie is from Apple May Designs and is their Izzie in Black, which is provided in system layers (shown) along with appliers for Belleza, Maitreya Lara, Omega, Slink Physique, TMP, and even Baby Bump. There are also 3 sizes of bows for the back, a very sweet touch. My bear on the right is from Pewpew! and is their Mad Teddy Classic, with built in hold pose. Not sure why he's so cranky, snuggling with him didn't seem to help but I'm enjoying his company regardless.

No nail note of the night (SL default HUD again) but a hair note since this is one of several hair gifts to be found at Shiny Shabby, this one from Elikatira. This is their [e] Kiki in Exclusives, whose HUD has 20 choices including 12 colors and 8 ombres. I will show my SL age a bit here by saying I used to be a big fan back in her ETD days :) This style is so playful, and that big curl in the front along with the smaller one in the back are just a delight. Oh and I also have an eye note tonight, those are the Amacci gift at Shiny Shabby called Zenith Eye Mocha and come in standard and mesh versions. The standard have 3 sizes with a dark version of each, while the mesh have a HUD for all those neat options.

I am running very late, for some reason lately things seem to get really weirdly busy or crop up suddenly the minute I sit down to blog. I apologize for my absence last night, I wasn't feeling great and was stressed trying to get ready for a busy day today, and when I crashed 5 times that morning I just gave up temporarily. Two hectic days in a row, and now here I am :) I got to see my best friend earlier which meant the world to me, it had been since September since we got together and I hate going that long without her hugs and wonderful company. Meanwhile I hope all of you have had plenty of reasons to smile today, and magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
