Happy Weekend Anniversary

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I've got another event to tell you about, the Happy Weekend Anniversary event from ACCESS. That means that you'll want to be a part of the ACCESS group (free to join) and that tag will let you claim gift at many of the booths here at the event. We get to pet (click) the cutest kitties to get our gifts, and they're sitting in pretty cupcakes for that extra dose of sweet :) They are celebrating 7 wonderful years of bringing weekend sales to the grid, and this event round lasts until the 30th of July.

My first look is the lovely Gaia - anna halter neck top & low panty gift. It gives retro swimsuit vibes with a modern twist, so it can be worn as a shorts outfit as well :) There are sizes for Legacy, Perky, Reborn, Juicy Rolls, and Waifu mesh bodies, and the pieces can be worn individually or together as shown. The polka dots are a fantastic detail, and I've always been a fan of pink and white as a combo. 

I am also having lots of fun with our Alice Dress - FATPACK gift from Black Flowers. The neckline is cut daringly low, and the fabric just looks so soft and flowing :) We receive Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes, along with a HUD that lets us pick from 12 colors each for top, skirt, and belt. Choosing the same color for all gives a sense of elegance, and I think I was feeling a bit more playful by mixing things up. 

Next I combined two generous gifts for one look, and I think it turned out really nicely :) The CATARSIS - POGO Corset - BLK is the irresistible top I chose, with lacing in the front and a small zipper in the back. It comes in sizing for Kupra Squeezed, Legacy, Bombshell, Maitreya, Reborn, and Juicy mesh bodies. The style would look right at home over your favorite jeans or a sassy skirt too, just depends on your personal style. I'm wearing it with the Galagher - Mona Edition 5 pants, a gift which I think of as 'convertible' since it can be worn as shown or with just the upper portion above the knees. The chains are attached to the lower piece which is labeled "remove this", with both pieces designed to fit Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn bodies. The fabric is so eye-catching with its newspaper print, although I just had an "oh no, I'm so old" moment by realizing that soon the younger generations won't even know what that is. Well you see, kids, we used to chop down trees and mash them up to make paper, and that's how we got our news in the morning...no, no computers or phones...LOL. 

Not only do we get to see the shorter version of those pants here, but I've paired them with another gift :) That would be our TRASH. Drycell Turtleneck (Femm) - Delulu Gift, with tiny rainbow writing on the front that says "Hot Girls are Delulu". There are sizes for Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu bodies included, as well as a HUD with 3 states of distress. The one on the left is the longest and least shredded, while you can almost tell that the one on the right above has the front lifted high enough to bare our breasts and raise the back a bit too. 

One final peek for the evening, this is the EUTHA - Lilith Lingerie BLACK gift. Isn't she sexy? The bralette and panties are separates that will fit Lara X, Legacy, Pushup, Reborn, and Juicy Boobs bodies. I'm not certain if the main material is meant to be leather or latex, but that and the lace trim got me humming "Leather and Lace" by Stevie Nicks and Don Henley :) My brain just does that, lol, as it's overly full of 80s lyrics and song titles. Sometimes they just break free. 

I'm slow tonight and running late, so let me hurry and wrap this up with wishes for a beautiful day/evening, and many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Happy Anniversary Kustom9

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're visiting the Kustom9 event for their 12th anniversary round, and you know what that means - free group gifts :) Their group is free to join, and you'll see signs at the event with a sample giftbox which is wrapped in tan paper and tied with twine. There is such a wide variety here, and as usual I am very grateful to all the generous designers while I offer huge congratulations to the organizers for keeping this wonderful event going for a full dozen years! Let's wish them continued success, and enjoy our shopping and gift gathering :)

My first look this evening is our {COLD-ASH} HAILEY Henley Cami (Halloween) gift. Isn't it cute? Personally I love the simplicity of the stripes, like you know what it's a nod to on first glance. There are regular and tucked versions (tucked are tighter at the hem to wear with mesh pants) each in sizes for Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. Our neckline has a little notch, and the back is scooped a little lower for a flirty touch.

Next I slipped into our True Damage-COCO SWEATER RED group gift, in such an autumnal color. The style is a classic for sure, and it's got great texture with a soft knit. There are Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes included. I think the long sleeves are just right for the cooler weather :) We're finally getting some of that here in RL by the way, and I wish it could stay this temperature all year long.

If you can't decide which of the shirts in this photo you prefer, the really good news is they are both included in the same free gift :) That would be our Cattoza - K9 Birthday Gift, a duo of cropped tees with some distressed spots like on the hem and the left sleeve. Versions 1 and 2 are each provided in sizing for Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. As with the first two photos, I've paired these with the blue pair from the Delizio marketplace gift which is an entire fatpack of jeans in BOM layers along with Maitreya and Omega appliers. 

Time to get flirty with the Bipolar - Via Body - Black Gift! As a matter of fact, it is revealing enough that I had to employ some 'modesty flowers' that I added in Photoshop to the breasts. The one-piece bodysuit comes in Legacy, Perky, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes, with a HUD for the details with 16 colors. The details include the clips on the front straps, and the edging you see all around. I intentionally chose lighter colors for contrast, to make that more noticeable I hope.

One last look of the night, we wrap things up in the beautiful "CATARSIS" Anniversary Dress. Its vibrant red hue really suits the playful style, corseted and very loosely laced in the back with extra short hemline. We receive sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, Juicy Boobs, and Waifu mesh bodies in this thoughtful gift.

Hair note of the night: I headed over to a new event called Lewd Station to grab Truth Hair's newest release, which is called Oui Oui and consists of the hairstyle I'm wearing tonight as well as a French maid costume. The headband comes in the same 2 rigged sizes as the hair itself, and the dress is your classic black dress with white apron attached :) I was afraid it would cost twice as much as usual because of the clothing included, but it was actually their regular price which I find to be very reasonable compared to other big name hair creators. If you're interested, I would like to mention that the Lewd Station event is an adult region and an adult event, meaning I saw all sorts of NSFW things ;) The colors were almost startlingly bright there, so it was rather like Lisa Frank took some special gummies then decorated it. With the XXX stuff, I almost want to call it a Lisa Frank sex dungeon, but then I'd owe many of you apologies for tainting your childhood memories ;) This is just encouraging some of you to want to go there even more I bet, LOL, and for those who prefer not to visit adult areas, I'm sure it will be for sale at Truth's mainstore when the event closes.

It was a day of rearranging things here, as my friend with whom I have the longstanding Thursday plans each week to play Hello Kitty together needed to switch that to Wednesday this week. That means my Wednesday outing is moved to Thursday, not a problem at all fortunately :) I'm just happy to get to have fun with her each week no matter when, as she is a kind soul and a good friend. I had pizza for dinner which was bought by the slice so no leftovers for tomorrow unfortunately, but it was certainly delicious. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Catarsis Continued

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are back at Catarsis to explore their many generous group gifts. The group is currently free to join, and the gifts are fatpacks with multiple colors/patterns of dresses or outfits either via HUD or with each color packed separately with all available sizes. Those unpacker HUDs give you a folder with several more unpacker HUDs inside, like those pretty nesting dolls ;) I greatly enjoyed my visits here, and find their flirty casual style right up my SL alley. 

The Catarsis - Grace Outfit - FATPACK is a laid-back gift that straddles the line between late summer and early fall easily because of the long flowing shirts but short sleeves and shorts. Each variety is packed individually, containing sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies. The shirt is provided in amarilla, blanca, gang amarilla, gang blanca, gang noir, gang roja, girly (left above), life is play noir (right), life is play roja, noir, only one, pill, race amarilla, race blanca, roja, and wild versions. Our shorts have b&w (right above), noir (on the left), rojo, and rosa varieties, all in those same sizes. All that boils down to lots of fun mixing and matching!

Next we take a look at the playful Catarsis - Ordinary Bodysuit - FATPACK gift, with plenty of versions and a cute bonus :) The bodysuit includes Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, with some varieties coming in transparent as well as solid of each size. There are packs of black, blanco, carbon, khaki, lunas (seen on the left above), manchas, oxid (right), rojo, and rose. The little bag on the left is the rojo version, but you will also find black, blanco, khaki, and rosa versions to mix and match with the bodysuits in the same sizes. I think the little bag is a clever idea and would be quite handy in RL too.

I found another sexy look in the Catarsis - Short Jumpsuit - FATPACK gift, this time a skintight one-piece that is daringly unzipped in the front. There are sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies included, with a 10 texture HUD that includes solids and a couple of designs like the word "Money" written up the side on the left above. The jumpsuit reminds me of a brief version of a scuba suit, something for a beach day perhaps?

The weekend is almost here, and if you need something alluring to wear out to a mature club (because nipples LOL), may I recommend the Catarsis - Jamming Dress - FATPACK gift? It includes many different colors and textures: b&w, black, cow (right above), dios (left), gray, original, original pink, and camo. Each of these are an unpacker HUD containing Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizing. I would guess that the deep neckline will vary on how much it reveals depending on your size and personal shape in any particular body, but I do expect that it will show at least a little something extra ;)

For my final look of the evening, I chose the Catarsis - Ariana Set - FATPACK group gift to share. It is a single piece with the appearance of two, a turtleneck and a short skirt, and fits BBL, Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. There is also a texture HUD with 6 choices, so we can pick a solid color like the blue knit on the right, or a design like the left above. I am always a fan of versatility like this, and the HUD does make things easier :)

My family doctor visit left me with a lot to consider, how to handle two different medical issues that I've battled for years, and that means research too. Both would involve changing medications I have taken for a long time, which can be somewhat intimidating, but if the current meds aren't working then it might be worth it. Otherwise I got a decent birthday card for my mom, found a gift I am not thrilled with but it'll do, and my houseguest arrived a short while ago :) Things are busy here but in a good way now. I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Catarsis Group Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post features several group gifts from a store that is relatively new to me, called Catarsis. Their group is currently free to join, and there are lots of generous goodies waiting for us to claim and enjoy. They are mainly fatpacks, with several colors or textures packaged by color and easily unpacked by wearing each HUD. I had a great time opening all the gifts when I got home :) 

My first look this evening is the Catarsis - Goddess Dress - FATPACK. This beautiful mini dress has bare shoulders and Juliet sleeves (full at the top, tight from the elbow down) in a metallic fabric. There are sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, in addition to a 9 color HUD so we can select our shiny shade. The seams on the bodice really add to the shapeliness too :)

Next I changed into pieces from the the casual Catarsis - CHEEKY Outfit - FATPACK. There are tops in Black, Doberman, Gris, Marron, Promises, Sucks (seen above right), Suffer, Tokyo (above left), and White, with the shorts varieties Black (right above), Blk/G, Blk/Y, and Lines (left above). All of these are packed up in sizes for Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, to be mixed and matched as we wish. 

Catarsis - Oversize Dress - FATPACK is another terrific group gift, that fits Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. There are packages with one of each size in several varieties: azul, blanco, negro, no drama, original (right above), original rojo, original rosa, print 1, rojo, rosa, and tie dyed pink (seen on the left). The dress may be loose in the upper portion, but then it narrows to a tight fitting mini skirt for extra sex appeal.

I also had fun opening up the Catarsis - Attention Dress - FATPACK in various iterations, many of which include transparent versions as well as the original solid fabrics in their Hourglass, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, and Maitreya sizing. There are flores (transparent seen on the right above), rayas (left), rayas 2, red, snake, tie dye blue, tie dye pink, and zebra packs included in this generous fatpack gift. You may have noticed that the dress style doesn't fully cover my nipples because of the low scooped neckline, and I suspect that will vary by body and your personal shape but it may mean that pasties are in order for some destinations. 

For my final look tonight, I shimmied into the cozy Catarsis - Fuzzy Set - FATPACK, well at least 4 different components to show you ;) The loosely closed long sleeved top and high waisted shorts will each fit Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, with all 5 sizes inside each color's package for each piece. The top and shorts are each provided in azul, beige, blanco, black, dalmata, marron, morado, rosa, rosa palo, and salmon. I am wearing the rosa palo top and morado shorts on the left above, with blanco top and dalmata shorts seen on the right. 

It was a fairly basic day here, the calm before the storm I guess as I prepare for a very busy few days. They should be mostly enjoyable, with the exception of the doctor visit tomorrow afternoon. In the late evening my friend/houseguest will arrive, which I am definitely looking forward to, and Friday we'll all celebrate my mom's birthday ♥. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Cakeday Anniversary

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are helping the CAKEDAY event celebrate their anniversary, and how do we do that? By joining their free group and claiming loads of generous gifts :) There are dozens and dozens of participating designers and nearly all of them are offering treats for the group members. I was not able to find a closing date for this event on their website or social media, but it opened on the 13th so hopefully we have some time left before it ends. It is a really large event, and what I did to keep track of where I'd been was just continue to stick to the right and work my way all the way around various rooms. I have two pieces of good news to share about this event...one is that there are many gifts and sales offerings for the guys, which can sometimes be in short supply so it is very noteworthy. The other is that many of the ladies' items are geared towards the more curvaceous mesh bodies out there, so full figured beauties are treated very generously here. 

My first look this evening is the Catarsis - ASH BLK Blazer - Corse BLK gift. It includes two versions (large seen on the left, short on the right with the slightly shorter skirt) each in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. I am a fan of both skirt lengths, depending on where I will be wearing it I guess, and the corset styling makes for a flattering look.

Next I changed into two fun gifts, starting with the *hvn. mini tee. sex. It is a formfitting t-shirt with a unique font on the front that reads "sex" and it is provided in sizes for Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. As someone who enjoys animal prints as a neutral, I was delighted to unpack the gift from Midoa which is their Clarie CowBlack Skirt. It comes in Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya sizing, with a slit on each thigh for even more sex appeal. 

I kept the skirt on here, but slipped into the humorous CAKE [$] Lee T-Shirt - [CDAY] which reads "It's my birthday and all I got was this overpriced t-shirt from Vetements". I promise, free is not overpriced :) The gift includes sizes for Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizes, which as you will see are very popular sizes among the prizes and sales offers here. I like the rainbow of colors utilized for the text on the front, which the cow print of the skirt seems to highlight too.

Our gift from Klubb is called "Good News" Bodysuit, but I admit I have plans on wearing it as a swimsuit too :) Versatility is good news in my opinion! Our newspaper print suit is provided in Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizes, and has high cut thighs that show off a lot of hip without being fully a thong in the rear. If you catch someone staring, they are probably not just trying to read your bodysuit but it would make an interesting excuse...

My final look this evening is the lovely .Q. Fatal -MOON- jumpsuit from QUEENZ. It hugs every curve and has flirty cutouts on the belly and chest. The pattern has a playful pink and blue design that reminds me of peacock tailfeathers, and the blue appears as a shadow that gives a 3D effect. When you claim this gift, you will receive sizes for eBody, Freya, Kupra Bimbo, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. 

Tomorrow I will be sharing more of these gifts, with a change to my Hourglass body since there were a few prizes I want to share that do not include Maitreya sizing. That goes to show how the event is curated for the larger and curvier bodies on the market, which makes it worth visiting for those with those bodies that are increasing in popularity. Most of what I blog seems geared towards Maitreya and Legacy bodies, and I enjoy seeing other sizes too. I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
