Addicted to Offers and Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we'll take a look at some of the generous gifts available for the *Addicted to Offers and Gifts* group, which is currently free to join. I've noticed their signs at many stores, but it looks like I have never blogged any of their gifts so I simply must remedy that :) I was initially seeking gifts for a different group, but kept getting distracted by this group's goodies, so I decided that the SL universe was giving me a sign. 

My first beauty is our CHANTY STYLE KIARA OUTFIT gift. The top, sleeves, and leggings are all provided in Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing, and we receive a handy HUD that offers 30 solid colors and 20 patterns each for top/sleeves and pants. I love the ability to mix and match, and while half of the patterns are Christmas themed (candy canes, trees) the other half are suitable for any time of year :) When it's warmer you can leave the sleeves off if you wish, although for the winter they are so cute the way they cover our hands.

I also visited Nala Designs and picked up the lovely Claudia Outfit {Red 1} as our gift, and was immediately captivated by the way the top, sleeves, and leggings are all different textures yet in the same red hue. Each of those and the sexy heels are included in sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. This is another case of being able to wear the top without the sleeves if we wish, yet again I am infatuated with the soft lace that also appears on the top just enough to look like a bra layered beneath. 

Next I changed into the wonderful gift from [Pixel Doll] called Francesca Outfit Pack 01. When you claim this, you will receive the dress and shoes each in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn sizes, along with the matching bag that has a hold pose built in. Of course the denim color caught my eye, but I'm also a big fan of the pattern with flowers and circles that almost look like vinyl records but more colorful :) Everything is so nicely coordinated, and the white lace trim is just the icing on the top (and hem). 

Mu-Shi Doll has a flirty treat for us, their MD "Sofia" Outfit - Grey GG. This fun halter dress has straps that cross in the front, and a short hemline that feels really right for this weekend :) There are Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn sizes included, so I switched from my Lara X to my Maitreya 5.3 body. 

My final look this evening is right across the shopping center from the prior one, .::PC::. "Kayla" Outfit - Green GG from PiNK CHERRY. I usually do check both stores when looking for group gifts at either :) We have versions with gold and silver chains on the left side, each in Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes. The silver ones have an S in the name where the gold trimmed have a G, which I've seen before or I might not have realized at first ;) Both versions have a sheer pleated side beneath that chain, very playful detail!

I feel so tired already, which I'm going to blame on the rainy weather. That is why the farmers market is canceled tomorrow after all, and the rain started several hours ago before I went to my parents' for dinner. It was enjoyable as always, and my dad is really feeling positive about the way his procedure for the A-fib turned out. He'll be on medication for the rest of his life including a blood thinner, but that also means that he'll be less likely to have a stroke in the future. The sleep apnea being treated correctly also means he is better rested, so all is well :) I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

MLM Free & Offers Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting some stores that are part of the MLM Free & Offers group, which has a small $5L fee to join. That will keep out the spammers, and encourages us to stick around to get lots of helpful news and gifts :) The gifts are free with the group tag, and I suggest any time you visit a store with lots of multi-designer group gifts, check for this group's logo as well. You just might be in for some bonus goodies! I'd also like to say that I've noticed I have some new readers lately, and want to warmly welcome you all to my blog ♥. Please feel free to follow me on any of my social media accounts on that tab above for sneak peeks of each new post and an easy way to contact me. 

My first look this evening is the beautiful .:Bad Rabbit:. Camby Swimsuit GIFT, which looks like a two piece from the front but the rear view reveals it's just one with a clever front opening. There are sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Pinup Bombshell, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies included. I'm so entranced by the butterflies, both the large and the smaller ones flitting about, and the soft peachy pink color is right up my alley.

This flirty outfit is our gift from MONOMANIA called Tonha de Zeca - Plaid White. They've got lots of great gifts for several groups, so be sure to see what other logos there look familiar. This treat includes the top, separate sleeves, and skirt, each in sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Pinup Nerido, Maitreya, Petite, Peach, Reborn, and Juicy mesh bodies. The plaid is intriguing in monochromatic like this, and the short hem of the skirt gives a particularly cheeky view from behind ;)

Next we have the lovely [seeker] Enna Print 03 outfit, a pairing of cropped top and low cut miniskirt that each lace up on both sides. Isn't that floral pattern pretty? Many times we think of bright assorted colors for flowers, but these softer ones are a terrific change :) Our gift includes Freya, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Petite, Maitreya, Maitreya Petite, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu sizing, as well as a metals HUD for each piece with 8 colors. The rivets holding the strings in place are where the HUDs come into play :) Be sure to find a C-string (panty liner) to wear beneath, because panties with sides are probably going to show through the lacing. 

Maybe you do prefer more vibrant colors, so in that case I'll suggest our Carola*Olaia gift. This bra, panty, and belted short robe set is all linked together and worn at once, in sizing for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Nerido, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, Mounds, and Juicy mesh bodies. As you can tell, there's also a HUD enclosed which offers 16 colors apiece for the jacket, belt, top, and pants so we can mix and match to our heart's content. The different textures of sheer materials caught my eye, and I think lounging in front of a fireplace sounds like a fun usage for this beauty.

For my final look of the evening, please visit CHANTY STYLE to grab their flirty ALEXA DRESS gift. I'm a big fan of asymmetrical styles, and this one's got the hem going high on the right while the top dips from bare right shoulder to full long sleeve on the left. Its belt is a separate attachment so you can choose to omit if you wish, and both will fit Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The enclosed HUD will let you pick from 20 colors each for the main dress, trim, and belt. I matched the belt on the right but from behind it almost looks like I removed it, but again it is entirely up to you if you want a sleek all-one-color look or you want to go wild and tint everything a new hue :) Make this look your own, jazz it up with your favorite accessories and you will look stunning as always.

I'm preparing for a busy weekend, which is slightly unusual for me...I'll be going back to the farmers market I used to go to weekly, for the first time in over 2 years if I feel up to it in the morning. Then dinner at my parents', where my dad is recovering from the procedure for his A-fib (cardioversion) that apparently did not work so he will go back on medication until a new plan is devised. I'll get to talk to them more about that tomorrow, so trying not to worry too much right this instant. Telling me not to worry is like telling the sun not to shine though, LOL, so I'm trying to think peaceful thoughts and take deep slow breaths. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Mesh Body Friends Goodies

 Hiya everyone! Tonight it felt like time to explore various stores, so I popped on my Mesh Body Friends group tag (free to join) and headed out to see what gifts I could find :) You all know that I enjoy sharing treats from multi-designer groups, and I sometimes don't even decide which group until I visit a few places. It just so happened that one of these gifts jumped out at me as just begging to be claimed and shown off. Who am I to argue with virtual clothing?

My first look of the evening is our TOG STORE . Cliver Set, a gift including a long tank top and itty bitty panties. These each fit Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The gift also includes a HUD with 10 textures each, so our panties are various solid colors and the tank top has assorted striped choices. I really like the open weave on the lower half of the tank, and would happily swap the panties for BOM shorts if I wanted to wear this somewhere G-rated :)

This sexy dress is the Tastic-Mandy Dress Pink gift for Mesh Body Friends. It has separate sleeves so you can wear the dress alone or with the sleeves, and they come in sizing for Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn bodies. At this point I switched back to Lara 5.3 from my Lara X body :) Love the pink leopard print here, and the dramatic neckline!

Kyarafashion has a terrific treat for us too, called .:KF:.GIFT Dahlia Dress. It's got one bare arm opposing a long sleeve on the right, and some intricate detailing in the midriff that caught my eye. There are Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu sizes of this beauty with Undress Me script built in (clicking it brings up a menu so you can set permissions or undress yourself) and the dress has a built in lace crotch cover. The HUD offers 12 colors with gold trim, 12 with silver trim, and 15 colors for the lace cover. 

Speaking of single shoulder looks, how about this stunning CHANTY STYLE LILLY BODY gift? :) The bodysuit is provided in sizes for Freya, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, and Reborn mesh bodies, with a HUD that offers 20 playful textures. Please don't ask me to pick a favorite because I simply cannot, lol, but the one on the right above is up pretty high on my list.

For my final look of the evening, I am enjoying our ::T.B.O.M::Bisous Skirt Full Outfit gift from The Best Of Me. The sweater, skirt, and heels are each designed to fit Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. I think I learned here in SL that bisous means kisses, and the lips above and below the wording would indicate so too...but why a devil and an angel, I have no idea ;) The long sleeves have a fun thumb loop which I love so much in RL for layering clothing beneath jackets or coats in cold weather, and it's just a cute touch. The skirt has a built in black panty, which matches the buckles on the skirt as well as those thigh-high peeptoe boots that made me go "rawr" out loud because I am a silly goose sometimes. 

So far all is quiet again as far as little furry rodents in my home, but I think I should knock on wood to avoid jinxing myself again. I had a great time with the new Switch 2 and playing multiplayer with a friend, so it was a pleasant respite. Then I got upstairs here and found out that one of the vendors from the farmers market died suddenly over the weekend, so I am really sad for his family and friends. Very nice man, bubbly and cheerful personality, and he made excellent food. He was active in his hometown community too, specifically their parks & recreation board, so it sounds like he will be deeply missed. I hope you're all having a decent day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
