FaMESHed Treats

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post is a part two, as I had more FaMESHed group gifts for their holiday round to share. Just have the free FaMESHed group tag active, and click all the pretty wrapped gift boxes you see at the various displays. Unpacking them all will be a treat in itself, seeing all the thoughtful ways that the designers are wishing us happy holidays! The sim might be extra crowded since the event opened recently and it's the weekend, so I recommend trying their cam sim if the main one is full and you cannot get in. 

Several designers realized that we would need nice warm sweaters for this chilly holiday season, and -Pixicat- tucked a trio of them into their gift box. Click it and you too can claim their Aria Sweater (Xmas) which includes red, green, and black versions all sized for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. The reindeer and snowflakes really set the mood, and I like the way the length falls just to the natural waistline.

Our gift from Just BECAUSE is their flirty Cami Sweater, with one shoulder slipping off because of the wide V neckline. It comes in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Physique bodies, all with the soft knit pattern that makes it look so snuggly. With all that exposed neck, I figured it would be flattering to add a necklace, which I did thanks to [Glitzz]. Their gift for us is called Amelia Necklace - Gold, and she is resizable with a HUD that offers 17 gem choices. With all those options, this treat will easily match whatever you decide to wear it with. 

I am also a fan of the gift from *COCO* which is their White Collar Sweater - Christmas Tree. It is really a lovely effect to have the crisp collar layered beneath the bold red cropped sweater dusted in white trees. the gift includes sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Maitreya Petite bodies. The white jeans making appearances in my first three photos this evening are one of the many colors in the Delizio fatpack from the marketplace that I reach for very often (and with good reason!) since they are a well-loved free gift. It provides system/BOM layers along with Maitreya and Omega appliers for each of the colors. 

Wow, the gift from Kaithleen's is a sexy stunner! This is their Rhapsody Dress - Bubblegum, a sheer pinstriped mini that clings to every curve and has a single detached sleeve with the option via HUD to hide it if you prefer a sleeveless look. The dress comes in eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya, and Maitreya Petite sizing. I took this opportunity to display another jewelry gift, the Doriana Necklace from KUNGLERS. It is actually a pair of necklaces, with a gold version that has white pearls (seen on the left) and a silver chain with blue pearls. I am wearing that on the right but the blue beads are not visible from behind, so you will just have to try it on for yourself to enjoy it ;) 

For my final look of the evening, we start with the elegant Seniha. Yeliz Gown // Dark Blue gift. It has flirty cutouts on both sides of the waist, with pretty ruffles where the spaghetti straps attach to the bodice. It is provided in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizing. I paired it with the wonderful gift from Cae called Tressa Collection, a necklace and matching earrings with resize scripts built in. They also come with a HUD that offers 6 metals and 15 gemstone colors to choose from, for plenty of variety. 

It was a quiet and rainy day here, and I missed not going to the farmers market but it was my decision so I am not complaining. It was probably better to rest and recover than be around people, even with masks, so I chose the dull but safer path. I have a few different possibilities for my next few blog posts, so tonight I will be making decisions and having fun exploring SL as usual. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Uber Birthday Gifts

Hiya everyone! Tonight we have more Uber birthday gifts to see, and I am delighted to remind you that these are all totally free with no group tag needed. Just visit the Uber event or one of the camera shopping sims (Harajuku and Cam Sim) and use your camera controls to zoom over and click all the gift boxes which are decorated with floating black and gold balloons. All the designers who are taking part in this round of the event have a gift along with their usual sales offerings, and I always enjoy seeing an event celebrating a milestone in SL. I guess I find it reassuring that they have been successful for several years :) This round is open until the 22nd of September, and it just opened a few days ago so it is still fairly crowded. You might need to try at a less busy time if you cannot get into any of the sims, it took me a few hours over the course of 2 days to be fortunate enough to claim an opening.

For my first look, I wound up combining 4 generous Uber gifts. The top is the For the Crew Top - Black Latex from Cynful, which comes in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes. The halter style looks wonderful with the sheen of the latex. Since it has hints of red, I paired it with the Jeune by Rowne.Mara Jersey Skirt - Red. This sexy mini is provided in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes, and has a flirty zipper in the back. In a delightful coincidence, it matches the gift from DIRTY PRINCESS perfectly! That would be their Famous Princess heels, in Maitreya and Legacy sizing, strappy sandals with uniquely shaped stiletto heels. I also added some jewelry, the Cae Malia Bracelet pair which as you will see are quite versatile. We receive the left and right versions with a HUD that offers 6 metals for each section of the doubled up bracelet, 20 gemstones and 15 colors for the smaller faceted gems that are shaped like an eye around one of the larger stones. I did a closeup view in the inset above so you could see that a little better, picking random colors to show the differences.

[[ Masoom ]] has a lovely gift for us too, their Imogen Suit - Olive bodysuit. It includes a sheer version (right) as well as a solid version, each sized for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. The loose fitting belt is attached to each, and the side view really shows those dramatic leg slits that make me think of a genie. The texture has some shimmer to it too, so pretty!

Another beautiful look here, thanks to the dress from Pink Cream Pie called !PCP Tori Dress [Lilac]. The plunging neckline slit is laced with matching cords, and those same strands appear crisscrossed in the back as well. Our gift comes in sizes for Freya, Legacy, Maitreya, and Maitreya Petite, with a HUD to change the panties (they are built in and not visible from this angle) to your pick of 20 colors. I also chose an accessory for this style, the EQUAL - Duality Necklace which has a built in resize script. The duality comes from the left half of golden links, the right being snowy pearls strung together, with a gold pendant dangling from the front center. This is easily adjustable for your size or shape.

What better way to celebrate a summer Uber birthday than with swimwear? This gift comes from Bombshell and is their July / Sky suit, in two versions as seen above. The one on the right is labeled AP for each size, so I will guess that stands for animal print with those familiar leopard spots. Each version includes Freya, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya, and Maitreya Petite sizing. I really like the single shoulder style, and those peekaboo cutouts...dare I say *rawr*? 

My final look of the evening is the oh-so-charming Neve gift, their Croissant Dress. This beauty comes in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Physique, Maitreya, Maitreya Petite, Legacy, and Legacy Perky body sizing. There is also a HUD included with 4 texture choices, each an ombre with matching metal for the belt and straps, with an on/off option for shine. The one I am wearing on the left above reminds me of either a sunrise or sunset, and the high waist with flowing short skirt makes me think of a modern take on a toga. 

The weekend is almost here, and I am looking forward to it for sure. Tomorrow I will enjoy dinner with my parents, and then Saturday will be the farmers market and probably a return of hockey. I understand why the NHL felt the need to cancel their games too, and I am sad that the players are stuck in a bubble away from their families for a little longer because of it but this nation is deeply troubled and they needed to make a statement. I support peaceful protests, as that is how people can make their voices heard. I try to keep my blog as neutral as possible, but human lives should not be a political issue and should all be protected. Many magical magpie hugs to all of you!!

FaMESHed is Fantastic

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more group gifts from FaMESHed and their 8th anniversary round to share, and these seem to be leaning toward the flirty side. That may work well with your remaining weekend plans or just might be your own personal aesthetic, or perhaps you are like me and change your style to suit your mood. Whatever the case, I think you will be pleased when you join their free group and claim the bounty of gifts that await :) There are original mesh creations of clothing, accessories, home decor, and more among the gifts and the offers for sale, so you can expect to find unique treasures to brighten your Second Life.

My first look starts with the Blossom&Seeds Koki Dress No.4, a stylish mini with sheer midriff and laced back. It includes Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizing. I accessorized with another gift, the Remi Bracelet and Necklace from [JUSTICE]. These are nonrigged so they can be adjusted if necessary, and include a HUD with 10 metals for the beads plus 20 each for the strands they are affixed to and the wires (strings?) that go across them and hold them in place. The inset shows a closer view of the creative design.

Next I slipped into the SAUVAGE group gift called Catalena White, which actually consists of two versions of the same stunning dress, white and ombre. Each come in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, so several popular curvy bodies. I love the way the ruffle at the top drapes over the bust, and the high slit on the left thigh is daringly up to above the waist. Does anyone else ever marvel at how some SL clothing like this dress would be nearly impossible to wear in RL without involving double sided tape and possibly not moving at all? Never fear, you can dance the night away in this fun gift :)

I did mention that tonight's gifts are on the flirty side, well I think this kicks it up a notch right into sexy! I am enjoying the ~Nerido~ Lilith Bra/String - Lavender here, matching lace bra and panties in sizes for Maitreya and Legacy (with an added Legacy Perky size for the panties). Then I added the jewelry, the gift from -Narcisse- called Lia Bodychain ML fitted for the Maitreya Lara body. It includes a HUD with 10 metal colors, and I must say the style is delightful...the single loop around the neck down the front to the waist, then double chains from the back of the neck around to that circle in the front. 

Bombshell is offering this incredible dress called Julia in Baby Pink as their group gift, and I love it! The color appeals to me of course, but the styling too with that draped sash in the front really caught my eye. It is provided in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes. 

My final look of the evening is a playful mini from {le fil casse} called Francine Dress Seafoam. The halter strap is held in place with a bold bow above each breast, and that is one impressively short hemline ;) The soothing color is accentuated with a dusting of paler polka dots, just the right size to be noticed without being too subtle or too loud. As a nod to our current world climate, I chose the timely Hope Necklace from Cae as my accessory for this look. It has a resize script built in that you can access by clicking, and there is a HUD provided with 6 metals and 15 gemstone colors to choose from. I appreciate the versatility, and the sentiment of hope.

It was a chilly day here, but I am glad I got some fresh air and saw (safely, with masks, from an appropriate distance) some of the people I usually got to visit with at the farmers market before the pandemic. There was just one customer without a mask that I saw, out of at least a dozen people, so that was reassuring. I wound up buying more food than anticipated, so I think I am stocked for the entire week and then some :) My parents and I gave one of the ladies a Mothers Day card and flowers since she has always been so sweet to us and considers us family. I am getting all sentimental now just thinking about it, can you tell? Whew, well I hope you're all enjoying your weekend so far, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More FaMESHed Gifts

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more treats to share from the FaMESHed event and its December round. There are many gifts for the free FaMESHed group, just have your tag active and click the wrapped presents you see at the vendor displays. The event is open until the 27th of the month, so just after Christmas, giving you time to visit and enjoy while doing a little holiday shopping. Don't forget to treat yourself, you deserve it!

First we have a generous gift from RIOT which includes sweaters for the ladies and the gents :) This is their Jane Sweater Gift, whose red and green versions are each provided in Freya, Isis, Legacy, and Maitreya sizing. The left shoulder is cut out to show a strap emblazoned with the store's name, so you will always remember who to thank for this cozy gift.

Another group gift that looks great with my Delizio jeans (marketplace, several colors, system layers plus Omega/Maitreya appliers) is the !APHORISM! Deanna Top - Lilac Ltd Ed. This flirty style has a sweetheart neckline leading up to a small collar in the back, and a lush layer of beaded fringe. There is also a HUD that lets you hide the beads or fringe (hiding the fringe also hides the beads automatically) with 4 colors each for beads 1, beads 2, and the fringe. This will make a lot more sense when you have the shirt and the HUD on ;) The gift includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies.

There are two gifts featured in this photo, starting with the Giz Seorn cropped sweater gift. It has a very pretty mix of colors, and is provided in Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh body sizes. It looks really cute with the gift from Bombshell called Adriana Shorts Red. They include sizes for Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya, with a HUD for the zippers in front to choose from silver or gold. The gold makes them look more Christmassy in my humble opinion, although I usually lean towards silvery tones for jewelry so both choices are winners.

Neve is offering a terrific gift too, this comfy sweater with striped sleeves and plaid skirt that buttons down the left side. Each come in sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, and there is a HUD for each with 4 choices. In addition to the three shown above, there is a grey that works wonderfully as a neutral to pair with any of the others.

For my final look of the night, I am wrapping things up with the sexy group gift from Belle Epoque called Scarlett. The bra and panties are provided in a Maitreya size, in green trimmed with red and decorated with tiny bows. I also chose the Laurel Collection from Cae to accessorize with. That includes the earrings, necklace, and barrettes I am wearing, which have built in resize scripts on touch and a HUD with 6 metals to choose from for each separately. The seasonal wreaths are lovely, and with just enough color to coordinate beautifully with your favorite festive outfits. Just think, if these designers are offering all these amazing treats as free gifts, wait until you see their selections for sale!

I must admit to being very distracted tonight after some bad news about a very talented member of my favorite hockey team. He was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare form of cancer, and will be missing the rest of the season to receive treatment. He is just 23 years old, and it is heartbreaking for his fans to know that he is facing such a huge challenge. Honestly I do think he will beat it and be able to play again someday, based on being young and healthy, and having top notch cancer treatments available in the area. They keep posting pictures of him in the purple practice jersey he wore for Hockey Fights Cancer night recently, and it's making me teary every time I see it. We have games tomorrow and Sunday, and I'm just not emotionally prepared. 

My plans for this weekend are to post Sunday morning rather than Saturday night, so I can share some more wonderful Advent calendar gifts with everyone, and since my Saturdays are always busy it will be nice to have the evening off :) Then I think I will be returning to evenings for Monday, but I will decide before my next post so I can have a definite answer then. I hope you all have a relaxing and fun weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

FaMESHed Anniversary Goodies

Hiya everyone! The FaMESHed event is celebrating their 4th anniversary, and if you visit before May 27th (plenty of time yet!) just join their free group and you can pick up a free gift at nearly every stand. It is still fairly busy, but there are some wonderful things to be found. I have a few peeks for you of course :)

First we have a summery looking dress from *COCO* simply called V-Neck Dress. It comes in standard mesh sizes, and makes me think of tennis. The hair is a group gift at FaMESHed too, courtesy of MINA called Juliet. I love this color that it comes in, suits me very well! My pretty butterfly rings are a gift from Cae, their Flutter rings with a great HUD that features 3 metal options for various parts, and 13 gem options for the smaller ones and the larger ones. I adore rose gold and will probably use that choice a lot :)

Next we have this fantastic August Halter Dress in Navy from Coquet. This gift includes standard mesh sizes, and such a playful style. Another gift not to be missed is this stunning hair from Damselfly, their Francie full pack! That's right, all the colors you could possibly want are included in this generous gift, 8 color HUDs and two different sizes of hair. 

If you need a slinky dress but want something different than the typical little black dress, I highly suggest this chic gift from Valentina E. Their Arabella dress comes in several mesh sizes including standard small and medium, Maitreya, Slink Physique, and Slink Hourglass. My sunglasses are a FaMESHed group gift from KITJA and come in silver or gold options. That amazing hair is our group gift from Wasabi Pills, a special color of their Marissa hair which is for sale at the event in other colors. I couldn't stop staring at how the colors flow into each other, and those gentle waves...the twists...the tendrils drifting down the breasts...can you guess I'll be buying this in my usual colors as well? :) There is a HUD included for 16 color choices for the accessories, those bands down the middle in the back.

One last glimpse of the night, I kept the previous gifts on but added another, the *{Junbug}* Crystal Acorn Choker in Forest. It's a perfect touch for so many outfits, and I appreciate the touch of nature it provides.

Today was a much better day for me, especially since I finally saw the new groundhog babies living beneath my shed out back :) I wasn't the first to spot them and only saw 3 of the 4 that others saw, but mom was keeping an eye on them and they were playing and exploring a bit. One went up on its hind legs then flopped onto its sibling, either he/she needs more practice or was just playing with the sibling and turned it into a wrestling move, hehe. Spring, new life, new possibilities, this is the stuff that refreshes my soul. Magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Trick or Treat at The Fantasy Collective

Hiya everyone! If you haven't gotten all of the trick-or-treating out of your system yet, I have great news for you...head over to The Fantasy Collective, join their free group, and click all the pumpkins you see at each display for either a trick or a treat from each designer. Dozens of fun filled gifts are waiting for you, and the pumpkins will be there until the 15th when the event ends so you still have plenty of time.

First we have some makeup treats from Tuli, which include the system layer Band of Thorns, Tears tintable tattoos on separate layers for left and right, and 4 tintable prim lashes called clumpy, sparse, separated, and feathery which I am wearing above but are quite subtle. I didn't change the tint on anything, so you can see them in their default look and decide if you'd prefer to change the colors yourself.

Izzie's decided to go with some makeup artistry treats as well, and this is just a sampling of their playful gifts for our lips. In their pumpkin you will find Halloween Lipstick in cat plain, orange, and purple (upper left), open mouth in purple and red (upper right), panda (lower left) and panda white, and spider in plain, silver (lower right) and white. These are so adorable, even the spider ones are so well crafted that I didn't have a spider spaz reaction ;)

This photo makes me smile, as I have a sweet new friend along with a gorgeous hair accessory and a spooky new choker. The precious pup is from {le fil casse} and is called dirty puppy SHADOW, with a built in hold pose. I immediately fell in love! The necklace is from Moon Elixir and is called Raven Skull Choker, very realistic on a nice braid. I must say, their 'box' is delightful, it's a potion bottle filled with purple liquid and a glowing crescent moon that you hold and drink while the unpacker script does its thing. My floral headpiece is our gift from Astralia, and it is an exclusive for this event. 

More new friends with a great sense of humor, we have a Ghosty Plushy TFC edition in my arms from Plastik and the hold pose is built in, and the tail wiggles happily. My other friend floating behind me is our gift from Cubic Cherry Kre-ations, simply called Bat Companion and a delicious pun. If I seem to have something on my face, well it's called Nerd's Revenge and is our trick from Ama. It includes the pencil, system tattoo layer, and appliers for CATWA and Omega (labeled experimental) for the skin damage. 

One last look encompasses a trick from *Figment*, their bouncing eyeball, bouncing atop my head and therefore my new hair, which is a true treat from ~*Damselfly*~. Their gift is this terrific hair with Mixed HUD of several colors, both solids and fades. Even my necklace is a reward for trick or treating, courtesy of Cae. Their Bleed necklace comes with a HUD for 3 metal colors and 6 blood colors, including of course a bright red.

Nail note of the night: there is a nail gift you will find while trick-or-treating here, from Garbaggio and called Spooky Slink Nails Applier. 8 designs, 4 on bare nails and 4 black backgrounds so they work with just about any outfit. You may be wondering about my outfit, well as there were no clothing gifts at this event I decided to visit the marketplace to see what I could find there. Bart Simpson caught my attention as soon as I spotted this freebie from Kapone, a little mischief maker with an innocent grin here.

It has been a tiring Tuesday, but I sure hope you all found a good reason to smile. Magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

FaMESHed Group Gifts Galore

Hiya everyone :) I am excited to have the chance to show you some of the amazing group gifts for the FaMESHed 3rd anniversary. So much generosity all in one location, all through one group, from most of the participating designers! The group is free to join, and there's a sign to click near the landing spot. Then at each display, just click the big blue box with the FaMESHed logo and enjoy your present :)

Three lovely gifts can be seen in this photo. The dress with built-in shrug (one piece mesh) is from Coquet and is called Classic Romance in Blush. The purse is our gift from Zenith and is their Bow Clutch in 12 colors via HUD. My hair is the very fun MINA Hair gift, called Milou and comes in 2 versions each with or without materials. Combine them all and I definitely look ready for a spring night out!

This scarf dress is the amazing gift from NYU, and I really love the style. The scarf looks so touchable :) My hair here is the gift from /Wasabi Pills/ and is called Irene in Sorbet. It comes with a HUD to change the color of the bands only. The loose braid is just stunning.

Feeling too cool for words? Then this is the look for you! The hair from little.bones and dress from Espy are in the same gift box. The hair is called Pearl and comes with their Resort colors HUD. As for the dress, you do receive a HUD with it as well to change the color of the top (I'm showing it gray but there are plenty of great choices) and the belt color, however there is no Alpha layer for this dress. So I had to 'borrow' one from a random other short sleeved dress in my inventory. The bracelets are the wonderful gift from Maxi Gossamer, and they come with the small (shown on my right wrist) and large (shown on the left wrist) for each wrist, and they are color change on touch. Fantastic!! The sunglasses are our gift from Fishy Strawberry, and are aptly named Fly Glasses (I do look pretty fly) and come with a terrific HUD to change the colors of the plastic frames, lenses, or metal, and the HUD can resize them as well. 

How about a gorgeous floral wristlet? This is the gift from REIGN and is a stunning little rose, with a HUD to change to your choice of 5 colors. The studs on the strap give it a touch of edginess, but with that size and those delicately carved petals, this is definitely feminine and a great conversation piece.

These rings from Cae are simply stupendous! You receive 4 separate rings each in sizes suitable for default avatar hands, Slink, or Maitreya, and a left and right version of each. From photo left to right these are Star, New, Crescent, and Full. Wear one, wear all, wear anything in between, they look great. 

Now you may be wondering about my nails, which are the only thing I'm featuring in tonight's blog that isn't from the FaMESHed event. They are the new group gift from Nail Me, which is now free to join, so if you are a fellow Star Wars fan then you definitely need to be a part of this group :) I think R2D2 is my favorite, but all 4 designs on the HUD are wonderfully fun!

Wishing all you plenty of magpie magic and a fantastic day/night!! Hugs :)
