Hiya everyone! Tonight I have a wide variety of offerings to show you, starting with the Saturday Sale selection from Entice. If that made you glance at the date, don't panic...the Saturday Sale offers at Entice are always available for several days :) I also have a few hunt prizes from the Pool Party Hunt, a $1L gridwide that will have you looking for images of beach balls. There are plenty of outfits that will bring you comfortably into summer among the prizes. We also have something new and exciting to see, nails from LIVIA that are versatile as well as beautiful.
This striking dress is the Entice - Nocturnal Hekate dress in AquaOmbre, and is on sale until the 6th for just $75L as part of the Saturday Sale. It comes in Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizing, and is trimmed with Greek key patterned hem and straps. In addition to this color, Entice has reduced the prices on several other colors ($150L regularly $300L) or even the full fatpack with 10 colors which includes two exclusives to the fatpack HUD, $450L marked down from $599L. So many savings!
Next we head along the Pool Party Hunt path to The Sissy Bar, where we can find this outfit named (TSB) Pool Party Hunt. The tank top and shorts are each provided in eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine sizes. The graphic on the tank is so cute, and the tropical flower print on the shorts is a lovely touch.
Waffles is taking part in the hunt too, and they have this playful *WW* Pool Party Sun Dress as their $1L prize inside the beach ball. Just teleport to the womens fashions floor (teleport pad at landing area) to find this in standard sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP versions. The crossed straps in the back perfectly match the darkest of the swirls that mimic the magic of water in motion.
A classic choice for a pool party would be a bikini, so when you find the beach ball at Wiccan Wears, you can claim this fun ~WW~ Sienna PokaDot Bikini. It comes in standard mesh sizes along with Belleza, Maitreya, Slink, and TMP versions, with fringe draped across the front and terrific colors among the dots.
My final look of the night is something new from LIVIA, which you can find in their new location :) These are their Mix It Nails in Ballerina shape, part of the fatpack with Pointed nails also for $349L. They included rigged versions for Slink, Maitreya, Belleza, Tuty, eBody, and Tonic hands, and each shape has a HUD with long or medium length and 6 basic solid polishes. Good news, if you have purchased a recent pair of LIVIA's bento nails, you can check the list on their Flickr post to see if yours is eligible for redelivery at the store with the updated Mix It version. I know I've blogged a few of those for various events and as new releases. Now the polish seen above is the LIVIA // Mix It Polish HUD // Springtime No.2 [Ballerina], which you can also find at the new mainstore, for $99L. These 6 pearly shades with metallic stripes at the cuticle can be applied to the whole hand at once or to individual nails as I have done above (both thumbs, both pinkies, etc) for variety. Think of how creative you can get with these beauties! I updated the link in my right-hand column with the new SLurl for LIVIA's store, and it is in the ending credits as well.
We had another visit from a thunderstorm system tonight, but all is well and it is much calmer outside now. The next few days look decent too, warm but not too hot and a bit cloudy. I hope you're all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight we visit just one store, Elegance Boutique, and head upstairs to their group gift wall where you can join the group for free and claim a bounty of generous gifts. It seems as though they have been adding gifts periodically for a long time, so there is a fun variety that shows SL's evolution through standard mesh sizing into mesh bodies. There are fatpacks and lots of colors involved, I really enjoyed myself as you can tell.
This gift is called Sara, and it is a generous set of tops and skirts each in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. The colors include black/ivory, fuschia, navy/ivory, ocean (seen on the right above), pink (left), and salmon. There are plenty of patterns among the colors, as you can see, and the waist of the skirt comes up high enough to make it look like a dress from behind. So pretty!
There is a fair amount of lingerie on the group gift wall, so let's start with this sexy Hernaly Bra w/HUD. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique, plus a HUD that offers 30 textures which mostly solids but there are some lovely prints too. The panties are another group gift called Mila, and they come in the same mesh sizes as the bra with a HUD that has 28 textures. There are solids and patterns there too, so these can mix and match nicely.
I kept our Mila gift panties on, but switched to another group gift up top called Sila. It's marketed at a bra, but if you decide to wear it as a bikini style top, I won't tell anyone ;) It includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique, with a HUD that lets you choose from 7 different textures.
This sassy shirt is our group gift called Mely, and it has a great HUD with 9 options for color and design on the front. The shirt comes in Hourglass, Physique, and Maitreya sizes, and is cropped with a slightly loose style that is very flattering.
My final look of the evening is a flirty shirt called Oversized Top Shi, and there are navy and white versions each in sizes for Hourglass, Physique, and Maitreya mesh bodies. When I'm home relaxing, I definitely live the philosophy of "no pants are the best pants" seen on the white shirts.
It was another very busy day, and wow was it hot out there! I apparently do not handle heat too well anymore, so I might have some rough months ahead. I also have a lot on my mind lately, so I hope I don't sound as scattered as I feel. I'm being a worrywart, still haven't figured out how to stop that but I am trying. Well I do hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening/weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I will be showing you some more SLF&O group gifts from across the grid. There are so many that it deserved another post :) I also have some happy news about group slots, I mentioned yesterday that there had been a post on the official SL blog that non-premium members were losing group slots in a few weeks but they listened to feedback and have reconsidered. (link here) It is rare for a company to react so swiftly and actually listen to their members/consumers, so I am truly impressed. That said, let's take a look at some generous group gifts for a group that deserves one of your slots no matter how many you have.
First we visit FOLDS & WRINKLES with our SLF&O group tag active, so we can claim this lovely Layla nude sand dress, sized for Maitreya mesh bodies. It is a daringly short tank style with lace texture and a ruffle at the hem.
For a more formal look, head to FlowerDreams where their Gillian in Lilac is waiting for you to claim. It consists of a top and bottom in system layers and appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink mesh bodies, with a mesh skirt panel in standard sizes and two flexi skirt pieces. They are dusted with glittery sequins, and I love the way the top is laced in the back and tied with the bow from the under-bust ribbon.
For this pretty top, we visit a region called Wakanda to collect this gift from FAFA. It is called Fleur Tank and comes in sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. I am wearing it with the marketplace gift jeans from Delizio that have appeared here on my blog many times before, and will continue to because of their versatility.
Time to crank up the flirt factor to maximum! This is the SLFO group gift from EVOLVE APPAREL called FEVER, and it is clearly steamy. It comes in Hourglass and Maitreya sizes, with built in thong and mostly made of fringe. I added those white "modesty flowers" in Photoshop to cover up my nipples, they are not part of the outfit or in SL.
My final look of the night is the gift DanemarkZ called DMZ - Diner Queen Nail Polish. It includes appliers for Maitreya and Omega, with 10 colors of this silvery chevron design. The one on my thumb that you can't see in this pose is white on white. I am wearing them on the Slink stiletto nails that come with their hands.
My weekend plans are starting earlier in the morning than I expected, so I will be a tired magpie by the time I get home. The treasures I pick up will be food items rather than pretty shinies though ;) One person I will be seeing is a Game of Thrones fan and will want to talk about the final season since I haven't seen her since last autumn, should be a long and animated conversation. The added stop is inconveniently early but otherwise pleasant. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
