Hiya everyone! Tonight I have lots of wonderful things from Designer Showcase to show you, the exclusive offer from Entice as well as some more group gifts for their 8th anniversary. I'm going to try to keep the commentary relatively short and sweet tonight, so let's get to those looks! :)
These cozy looks are the exclusive Designer Showcase offer from Entice called Baby Love Coat - Plaid, and I'm wearing two choices from the fatpack which is $450L. That is discounted from their usual fatpack price, and there are individual plaid versions for $150L each (also reduced from regular prices) if you prefer. The fatpack offers another bonus besides the 2 extra colors, that would be the HUD to change each part individually: main, buttons, belt, undercoat, and fur. No matter what you choose, the coat dress itself comes in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya to fit the most popular mesh bodies.
DE.Boutique has a flirty gift for us, their Ode to Curves Red which consists of the dress in fitmesh standard sizes along with a mesh body size, and the matching heels which fit my Slink High feet perfectly. I love the bow in the back, and those dramatic double straps!
This next gift is revealing in multiple ways, from the sheer fabric to the bum-cleavage-baring back. It is the Gouttes d'or Dress by zOOm, and is the choice for when you are feeling daring :) The gift includes sizes for eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine.
To show you the gift from 1 Hundred., I had to break out the modesty flowers again in Photoshop ;) The sheer section on top of their Little Lace Dress. Melon showed things a bit too clearly, unlike the lace of the prior dress, so I added those black flowers to the photo (they are NOT in SL at all and definitely not part of the dress). The dress and matching panties are each provided in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes.
Finally, we take a closer look at my nails, which are adorned with the gift from CAZIMI called Glitter Tips [Grayscale]. There are appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink included, and each offers 6 designs which are 3 colors with silver or gold speckles at the tip. So pretty, and these neutrals are sure to work well with your favorite outfits.
Tomorrow I have special plans that involve seeing family members (both blood and chosen family) that I didn't get to see yet for the holidays, so I won't have time to get a blog post together for tomorrow evening. I will be back soon though, and I've got several different things that I am eagerly anticipating the chance to show you all :) It will be a rough car ride since I don't do well in cars and there are emotional reasons too (flashbacks to upsetting times in my life in the exact area I'm headed) so I am nervous but I'm sure everything will be fine once I get there. I hope you all have a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am pleased to share some gifts you can find at the current round of Designer Circle, which is round #142. That in itself is quite impressive, the event reaching that number of times they have brought you carefully chosen items from top quality creators all over the grid. If you needed any extra incentive to visit, these thoughtful gifts ought to do it. No group needed, each is set for sale for $0L so all visitors can pick them up for free.
First we get to dazzle in white, starting with the great dress from TentatioN. Their gift to us comes in what I call the lucky 13 of mesh sizes: 5 standard, 5 fitted, Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink. I matched it with another gift found there, from DE Boutique, their AW16 Brenda Heels Special Gift. These are a perfect fit for my Slink high feet, and have pretty details like those bright golden buckles.
This lovely dress is a gift from Sinful Curves Skins named Cassie, and the texture put me in mind of either Halloween or a throwback to the old HBO series Carnivale since it was set in the Dust Bowl era and everything was filmed in earth tones. I think the stripes made me think of a carnival as well. Inside your gift you will find this dress in several sizes for mesh bodies rather than standards: Belleza Freya, Belleza Isis, Belleza Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, and Slink Physique. It is very possible that one of those will fit a classic avatar, and normally I'd say to try a demo if there is any doubt but for free it almost IS a demo for itself :) *wonders if Carnivale is available on Netflix...*
Speaking of mesh bodies, this terrific gift from [WellMade] is their Sue Dress in a size for Maitreya bodies. You may have realized that the only mesh body I own right now is a Slink Physique, so I am grateful to be able to alpha out some sections of my body to accommodate the differences. I wonder if this color is considered oxblood, a really hot color this season. I definitely like it whatever it is called, my RL birthstone is garnet which can be similar.
Another wonderful gift you can find at Designer Circle is this Sasha Sweater in Zigzag from MOoH! which includes a HUD with 4 color choices. The sweater itself, which is just long enough to wear as a dress or you could pair it with your favorite pants beneath, comes in many different mesh sizes to suit almost everyone: 5 standard, 5 fitmesh, Maitreya in tight or loose fit, and Slink in tight or loose fit (loose shown here). The versatility is such an important part of this gift, and I am quite fond of the stripes being almost like chevrons.
For a bright pop of color on an alluring dress, be sure to pick up the gift from Prism Designs, their Faye Sequin Dress by Jezzixa Cazalet in Turquoise. This beauty comes in standard mesh sizes, and just look at that sparkly texture up top and the stunning jeweled bow with dangling pearl as part of the texture on the front. Color me pleased :)
One last look of the evening, this is a better look at the eyes I have been wearing tonight which are also a gift found at Designer Circle. MESANGE has these Mineko eyes set out as a gift for all of us, a striking silvery shade in system layers along with mesh and HUDs for Omega and Genesis. No matter what outfit you wear, your eyes may be noticed first when you meet someone and particularly if they are this attractive.
Things are returning to "normal" around here, LOL, whatever that may be, for a week or so then the rush of preparing for Thanksgiving will be here. I am actually nervous about this year's big family get-together, I am concerned that someone will bring up politics and that will create much tension if it happens. I'm trying to focus on the happier things, seeing family members that I rarely get to see otherwise and just enjoying the yummy food. I will just leave the table for a bit if need be. I hope Monday was good to all of you and that your week ahead holds plenty of good things, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
