Hiya everyone! Tonight we help the ACCESS event celebrate their 2nd anniversary. This monthly event has offers for men and women, with plenty of accessories and home decor among the vast selection. For their anniversary, nearly every participating designer has a group gift available in a teal gift box in front of their display. Just join their free group and give those boxes a click, so they can deliver a bounty of gifts to you. I had so much fun unpacking everything! Since the event just opened pretty recently, it is crowded and it took me about an hour to get into the usually full sim, so I would like to mention that there is a cam sim you can camera over from in addition to the main location.
For my first look this evening, I slid into the #LANA gift called The Zaira Dress. It is uniquely crafted with multiple straps and the appearance of two different tops pieced together, all in a sheer latex with fun stripes. The gift includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies.
The gift from Candy Kitten certainly caught my eye with its sweet lace panels and trim, and those lovely rainbows and winged hearts! It is called *CK* Your Angel Dress, and comes in sizes for Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies. I accessorized with the Bauhaus - Bracelet / ACCESS Anniversary Gift, a set of bracelets for left and right wrists that have versions rigged for Legacy and Maitreya bodies. They include a HUD so you can choose between two metals, gold and silver. These beauties can be worn with just about any style outfit, so enjoy!
The rainbow gradient on this swimsuit might also be a nod to Pride month, so be sure to click the gift box at the Avanti display to claim their Behani Swimsuit - Rainbow. It is provided in Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizing, with a HUD offering 3 metal choices for the chains. If you wear it in the sunshine, you might want to pair it as I have with the ED. Design Monique Sunglasses gift :) The sunglasses have a HUD too, with 5 colors each for the frames and ear pieces and 5 lenses tints. There are also 2 metal options on the HUD, and a tab for resizing to get the perfect fit.
This delicate dress with detached sleeves and built-in belt is the group gift from [Eternus] called Raspberry Dress (Pink). There are sizes for Legacy and Maitreya bodies, and I love the feminine feel of the color combined with the ruffles and bare shoulders.
For my final look of the evening, I combined clean lines with intricate body art for a fresh new feeling. The dress is the BOOSH gift called Ember Ribbed Dress Cream, and is provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies. It has a daring scoop cutout on the left upper thigh, and the halter top leaves the back bare about halfway down. My tattoos are the gift from DAPPA, their Fewn Tattoo, which consists of faded and fresh versions each in system/BOM layers plus appliers for Omega, Belleza, Maitreya, Slink, and Signature bodies. These very detailed sleeves go all the way down to the back of our palms, and even decorate our fingers with playful touches of ink. I think the single color makes the small artwork stand out even more, and I caught myself zooming in and staring at it the entire time I wore it :)
Nothing really noteworthy about my day, so I will wrap this post up with a wish for all of you to enjoy your day/evening, and many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some treats to share from the ACCESS event, where you can claim gifts from just about every participating designer if you have their free group tag active. Just click the bright turquoise gift boxes you see, and I would like to mention as a special note that there are an impressive number of gifts for male avatars among them. So please spread the word to your guy friends, they are well represented among these presents and will be glad to have ACCESS to them ;) There are two rooms to visit, and the event lasts until the 8th of January so you do have time even after the holidays to stop by. My advice would be to visit once now to gather some gifts and demos, then return when you are less busy to do some shopping, but that's just my random idea.
My first look is the colorblock frock from BETRAYAL called Donna Dress. She is provided in Maitreya and Hourglass mesh body sizes, and features a unique combination of colors with a deep plunging neckline and long sleeves with zippers at the cuffs.
If you are feeling like a "Bad Bitch" or need to psych yourself into it (as I sometimes do), maybe this BOOSH - Camo Tee and Skirt Set Gift will fit the bill. The knotted tee and flirty skirt each come in sizes for BBL, Freya, Isis, and Maitreya mesh bodies, and I must admit to being unfamiliar with BBL but I tried on the size and it looks to be a very curvy shape :) I'm glad the pieces are separate, so if I feel the urge I can pair the top with some jeans or something for an even more casual look.
SCANDALIZE has a versatile gift waiting for us too, their Bloom Red outfit. The top and skirt each come in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizing, each in regular and satin versions. There is also a handy HUD with 22 button colors for the top, and plenty of choices for the insets on the skirt: 22 patterns, 22 solids, and 22 satins which are matching colors to each other and the buttons. I stuck with a festive flavor here, but encourage you to be creative and add your own flair.
Doesn't this dress look like if you ran a finger down it gently, it would squeak? The thought made me smile. It is the Oushk gift called Imogen Latex Dress - Ice, and the color certainly lives up to that ice name with its frosty shade of blue. Our gift includes sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, and I imagine adding a silvery touch of jewelry and heading out on a date or solo night on the town.
When I tried this on and turned my avi around, I literally whispered "I have a tail" while giggling excitedly :) I may have been giddy from being tired, LOL, but you can tell I am very grateful for our gift from [I<3F] & co. called HoneyBun - Xmas Gift 2019. This deep burgundy bodysuit has a hood with bunny ears, and that little cotton poof on the back matches the black fur trim on the hood perfectly. This gift is sized for Maitreya mesh bodies.
It has been a strange day, with a partial heater malfunction (the house has zones, one decided to go higher than it was set for and wouldn't shut off so probably would have wasted a lot of energy) and everything else being delayed as a result. I have cooking to do, and less time in which to do it, but it will be okay in the long run. Then tomorrow night I will not be blogging because I will be spending the afternoon and evening with my family for Christmas Eve, but will return on Wednesday night with a new post. I would like to take this opportunity to wish those of you who celebrate a very Merry Christmas, while hoping every one of you is having a peaceful day/evening. Many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
