Hiya everyone! Tonight I am pleased to tell you about a special hunt at Dulce Secrets called the Hunt of Hunts Hunt 8. This intriguingly named event gives you a final chance to obtain past group gifts and hunt prizes from the prior year, and the 41 free prizes include skins, makeup, eyes, clothing, and more. You will find these gifts hiding inside bottles of champagne with a pair of filled glasses beside each, set to sale for $0L. There are some upstairs as well as the main floor, just take your time and look around carefully and I'm sure you will find them. I always enjoy a visit to Dulce Secrets, who also take part in Free Dove hunts from time to time so they are a familiar designer because of that too.
My first look is their ::DS:: Mae Empire Dress, which comes in standard mesh sizes along with a fitted version, and includes a HUD with 24 texture options, two of which are shown above. There is a system layer thong too, and as soon as bakes-on-mesh is implemented we can wear that on any mesh body as well as the classic avatar. I am also wearing a skin prize here, the ::DS:: Siobhan Fonio Kitten, which includes system layers and appliers for Slink and Omega. I loved that there are red eyebrows, a delightful match for my hair.
Next we see the prize called ::DS:: Henriette Snow Gown, which is actually a strapless top and layered skirt each in standard mesh sizes. The stole is provided too, and I have shown the dress above both with and without. Winter will be here before we know it, so this beauty will come in handy very soon. I am also wearing another prize skin here, ::DS:: Delaney Barley. Their skin tones are named for types of grains it seems, and this particular prize includes shades called kamut, millet, soy, and spelt along with the barley. Each come in system layers plus appliers for Slink and Omega.
For a less formal, very elegant look, be sure to find the prize containing ::DS:: Peggy Sue Dress & Argyle Scarf. It comes in standard mesh sizes for the dress, and the scarf can be adjusted to fit you just right. There are color HUDs for each, 6 choices for the dress and 8 for the scarf. I also changed into another prize skin, ::DS:: Gabriella Flax Bare. The prize contains system layers and appliers for Catwa, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink. In addition to the flax skin tone there are amaranth and sorghum included.
This lovely outfit is the ::DS:: Sabreen Outfit, a jumper and jacket each in sizes for standard, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP. The colors are great for autumn, especially the leaf pattern on the top. I am wearing a different skin tone from the Delaney gift I showed you the barley in the 2nd photo, well this is the Delaney Millet which is a darker tone.
My final look is a closer view of a skin prize, as well as a sampling of some lipstick from a different prize. The skin is ::DS:: Veryn Soy, one of several shades (also barley, kamut, millet, spelt) included as system layers and appliers for Omega and Slink. One of the many prizes containing makeup is the set of ::DS:: Beizo Lipsticks, 8 different shades as system layers and appliers for Omega and Catwa. The shades are numbered rather than named, and have a beautiful creamy, glossy texture. The closeup really shows them off, and gives you a peek at the dramatic eyeliner and dreamy shading of the skin too.
Wow, I feel like I just blinked and suddenly it's November! Time seems to fly lately, and I am excited to see what the new month will hold for all of us. I'm sure there will be new hunts, and rounds of events to explore, and a new month usually means new group gifts from various designers. Meanwhile I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have plenty of free gifts to show you, from the Dulce Secrets mini hunt at Free Dove this month which they have named the Boho Summer Hunt. There are 5 prizes hiding at Free Dove and another 5 at the Dulce Secrets mainstore, each of which are in a transparent box with a white feather upon it. These will help you have an extra beautiful summer, since there are 3 dresses to wear plus skin in four different tones, eyeshadows, and lip glosses. Each skin has system layers as well as Catwa, Lelutka, and Omega head appliers with Black, Blonde, Brown, and Ginger brows (also a no brows option) and body appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink, with pushup or natural cleavage choices. I really enjoy the variety available here, and hope you do too.
This stunning down is the ::DS:: Monet Boho Blue Dress, found inside prize #003. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique, with a vibrant pattern trimmed in its namesake color. The skin is ::DS:: Blythe Coffee, a rich shade that I am wearing with brown brows and the natural cleavage option. My eyes are from prize #005 which is ::DS:: Summer Nights Eyes, of which I am wearing the Brown but there are also blue and green versions. Each color comes in system layers, a mesh version, and appliers for Omega and Catwa.
The blue dress looks fabulous against this skin tone too, which is called ::DS:: Blythe Oat in all the same appliers and system layers as the others. It is an attractive tan shade, just about what I normally wear in these warmer months. My eyes are Summer Nights Blue Eyes, in the same options as the others in prize #005.
This paler skin tone from prize #006 (found at the DS mainstore) is called Blythe Quinoa, and I am wearing the ginger brows and push up cleavage. I also changed into a different dress, the Monet Boho Pink Dress found at the DS mainstore inside feather #007.
The lovely Monet Boho Green Dress is another flattering prize at the mainstore, from #010. The pattern really catches the eye, doesn't it? I have also switched to the Blythe Pinyon skin here, with the push up cleavage and the brown brows.
The skins from these prizes have plenty of options but are very neutral on the makeup front, which makes them the perfect base for these final two prizes I am pleased to share. The eyeshadows are #002 Boho Chic Eyeshadow, found at Free Dove and included as system layers along with appliers for Catwa, Lelutka, and Omega. There are 7 varieties for you to enjoy, to really bring out your eyes. There is also a terrific prize for your lips, #009 ::DS:: Boho Chic Lipgloss found at the mainstore. These shiny treats come in 6 shades, as system layers plus appliers for Catwa, Lelutka, and Omega. I switched back to the Blythe Oat skin here, and am wearing the Summer Nights Green Eyes.
Just to review, prizes #001 to #005 are found at Free Dove and the prizes #006 to #010 are at the Dulce Secrets mainstore. They are numbered in the credits so you know which is where. I hope you are all having a wonderful day, and that the weekend ahead is an enjoyable one. Many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! This morning we will be exploring some Advent calendar gifts, claimed either with a free group tag or no tag needed at all. There is no cost to you, and plenty of good reasons to make yourself a list of stores to visit each day before Christmas and claim some outstanding gifts. To make things easy, I made a subfolder in my landmarks folder, named it Advent 2017 (next year I'll refer to it again to see if those stores are offering Advent gifts again) and when I saved each landmark I noted in the name "no group" or "group tag" so I'd remember to wear any needed tags before TPing. Another source of generous treats is the Peace On Earth 10 Hunt, which will have you visiting almost 300 stores to find hidden globes that give you a prize for free when you click them. The website is very helpful for those oops moments when the landmark in a particular globe might not be updated yet, or a store has had to drop out so you need to grab the next location from their website. I really enjoy hunting with Xan, my clever partner who thinks outside the box and helps me figure out clues, and keeps me motivated with his thoughtful assistance.
This lovely wrap dress is our Advent gift for day 11 from Baci, called lu-Dunyaah-colorable. It comes what I call the lucky 13 of mesh sizes (5 standard, 5 fitmesh, Belleza, Maitreya, Slink) and includes a handy HUD with 9 colors you can choose from for the dress. I am loving the teal, but red is such a fantastic seasonal shade! All the colors show off the subtle embossed pattern of the fabric beautifully, and I appreciate that the style is suitable for any season. No group needed for this advent calendar, just visit and click the current date.
Emerald Couture has 3 Advent calendars, one for everyone (no group tag needed) and then for their free group's members there is a female board and a male board. This gift is from the free for all calendar, the boxes on shelves to the left of the group boards, and it is called EC Spring Fling Dress White n Black Floral. The dress has a thin belt attached that really accentuates the monochrome color scheme, and it is included in standard fitmesh sizes plus Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, and TMP, while the shoes were a perfect fit for my Slink High feet. This is such a charming look, floral but not overly sweet. Now here is where I must make a confession: I did not stumble across the Inkheart advent calendar until this morning, even though I am on their blogging team. I was completely unaware, and I apologize for that. The good news is that if you join their free group, you can claim a gift each day, but if you miss any they are still free. For example, I claimed 11 of them today. They will be available until early January, so I am relieved that you will all still be able to pick up plenty of exciting eyes for free. Today I am wearing gift #11 which are called Feline Eyes - Wolf, and they are included in system layers plus mesh eyes in 4 sizes, as well as appliers for Genesis and Omega. All of their sets are provided in these same generous options, as a matter of fact.
Peace On Earth time :) This striking gown is the ALB Dream Fashions hunt prize called ALB INA dress & gown POE10, and there is a mini dress hiding beneath the fluffy skirts there that can be worn on its own. That dress is provided in standard, Freya, Isis, Venus, eBody, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine sizes. Also tucked inside are gown cloud 1 and gown cloud 2 (floaty flexi skirts) and an optional glitter layer that adds lovely golden shimmer to the skirt. This is quite versatile since you can wear all the layers, just some, or go simple with just the dress.
This fun outfit from [ASHBURY] is one of two prizes inside their globe, as there is one for the guys as well as this Female Gift POE10. The Kitty Ruffled Top comes in standard sizes plus Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink, while the Kester Pants are included in standard, Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, and Slink Physique sizes. The dangling suspenders are a neat touch with their splash of plaid.
For my last look of the day, I am indulging in two different hunt prizes that work very well together. My dress here is from Dulce Secrets, their Niamh Skating Dress Crystal, and it comes in standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP versions. The delicate snowflake pattern made me decide to add the prize from Deadly Nightshade, their DN Winter Effects, which are providing the floating flakes you see around and in front of me. There is a notecard included to tell you how/when to wear their Winter Aura Dynamic, Winter Aura Static, and Winter Effects for typing/walking/flying. I am wearing the static aura here, and still images do not quite capture the beauty of this portable snowshower you can share with your friends.
I know that Mondays are usually the roughest day of the week for many people, so I hope today is a decent one for all of you. Enjoy picking up your Advent gifts, good luck with the hunt, and many magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight is a part two, so I hope you tuned in for the first half yesterday, of the Free Dove mini hunt from Dulce Secrets. Their fun Blooming Summer Hunt takes place partly at Free Dove and partly at the Dulce Secrets mainstore, and all of tonight's gifts are found in the variety of flowers (all flat prim, transparent backgrounds) at Dulce Secrets. There are some beautiful skins and a few pairs of eyes, so it is an excellent opportunity to try a new look without hurting your budget. You just need the Free Dove group tag active and some patience to explore and find the pretty flowers.
First of all, I will start off with the lingerie I am wearing in all these photos, which is a Free Dove Gift from DanemarkZ and found in that section at Free Dove. It is called DMZ - Princess Lingerie #5 For Free Dove, and includes system layers and an Omega HUD. It beautifully covers what I need it to, while showing you a good look at the skins from the hunt. The skin I am revealing here is prize #06 called ::DS:: Jade Cardamom, and there are plenty of options for classic and mesh avatars. The system skins have natural cleavage or pushup cleavage, with layers for brows (brown, blonde, or black), moles, and freckles, and there are head appliers for Catwa, Lelutka, and Omega with the same brow options and body appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink with the natural or pushup cleavage versions. The eyes I am wearing are prize #09 in the hunt, ::DS:: Summer Nights Green Eyes, which are included in system, mesh, Catwa and Lelutka appliers.
Another skin tone you will find among the hunt prizes is from flower #07, DS Jade Chai, which comes in the same system and applier options as the previous photo's skin. I decided to show you the front and rear views here so you can get a good look at the shading. Also I am wearing the pushup cleavage option here, and it certainly does make a difference compared to that first photo. If you have a sheer or low cut shirt and you want to highlight your décolletage without actually increasing your breast size or wearing additional mesh breasts, this choice will give your twins a boost :)
Here is a closer view of the Jade Chai face, as well as another pair of stunning eyes called DS Summer Nights Brown Eyes. They have some flecks of brown but look mostly green to me, more of a hazel maybe, very attractive. They are from prize #10 at Dulce Secrets, hiding inside a flower there. The skin is a very clean look, these are the brown brows and the makeup is minimal so you can add your own favorites or keep things simple.
Flower #008 holds another skin, DS Jade Honeycomb, which I am wearing with brown brows and natural cleavage. The system and mesh applier offerings are the same as the others in tonight's post, all such appealing choices and once you find all these prizes, you can experiment and see what shade suits you best.
One last peek of the evening, this is prize #11 called Summer Nights Blue Eyes, and they are included in system and mesh plus Catwa and Lelutka appliers. These also seem to have a ring of green in the center, while the blue is towards the outside, a fantastic combination. You can also get a better look at the Jade Honeycomb face, whose lips really suit my GA.EG Barbara head nicely.
It was a full day, with a doctor appointment and a visit to the acute care center (I think that's the terminology they use) where my grandmother is still slowly recuperating from her stroke. It is hard for me to tell if she's making progress, honestly, but I remain optimistic as usual. I hope you are all enjoying your day/evening, magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight we have some looks at the Free Dove mini hunt by Dulce Secrets. There are a total of 11 flowers to find, 5 at the Free Dove location and then 6 at Dulce Secrets' main store. Tonight you will see what the hidden flowers hold for you at Free Dove, and for all of these prizes you will need the Free Dove tag active to claim them. This mini hunt is appropriately named the Blooming Summer Hunt, and what a great way to find a fresh new look this season.
This beautiful outfit is found in prize #03, the Dulce Secrets Blossom Top and Skirt. Each piece is included in standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. My lovely skin is another prize (#05) called ::DS:: Jewell Anise, and it includes a wide variety of options for classic and mesh avatars: system layers without brows in natural cleavage or pushup cleavage, eyebrow layers in black, blonde, and brown, moles and freckles (separate layers), and for the mesh bodies there are head appliers for Catwa, LeLutka, and Omega, each with 5 eyeshadow and 5 lipstick options along with moles and freckles, and body appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink, natural cleavage or pushup cleavage. Whew! That is quite impressive versatility, and I am wearing the natural cleavage Omega applier on my Slink body and the brown brows from the Omega head applier, no extras.
Here you can see a better look at the Dulce Secrets Jewell Anise's pretty face, while I show you the prize hiding inside flower 01 called DS Adrift Lipstick. This sheer pink shade comes in a system layer as well as appliers for Catwa, Lelutka, and Omega.
Another stunning gift found at Free Dove inside flower #02 is this DS Adrift Eyeshadow, system layer and appliers for Catwa, Lelutka, and Omega are provided. I removed the lipstick so you are seeing the natural built-in shade of the lips, and the bold eye reminds me of the ocean with its blues and greens.
I admit this photo makes me chuckle, my usual shape (adapted from the GA.EG Barbara Bento head's shape but altered to the general size I've been wearing for several years) is much more petite than I realized. It is on the left, and one of the shapes waiting for you inside flower #04, Jade Shape for GA.EG Barbara. The others are for Catwa Catya, Chloe Lelutka, and Classic Avatar, each mod and copy so you can adjust these to your personal preferences. I still cannot get over the long legs and graceful neck, I look like a model!
This is a closer look at the shape from the previous image, more specifically how it looks on the Bento head I wear. The prize shape is on the right here, and my own is on the right for comparison. Their nose looks a bit thinner through the bridge, and the eyes being smaller has made my mesh eyes disappear (those brown are a system Inkheart style I wear beneath the mesh ones) but fairly similar and certainly a very pretty, elegant look. The bra and panties you see here and in the prior photo are from the Slink Physique HUD, one of three they offer, which you probably recognized if you own a Slink body too. I wanted you to be able to see the shape better without being hidden by too much clothing.
Tomorrow I will be showing you the prizes you can find at the Dulce Secrets mainstore where this hunt continues, more skins and some different eyes, so please stay tuned :) I am so used to showing you mostly clothing, so this is a fun and interesting change for me, not drastic but I enjoy variety.
I hope you all had a terrific weekend and a bright week ahead, magical magpie hugs to each and every one of you!!

Hiya everyone! It is time once again for a few more Peace On Earth 9 Hunt prizes so you can see a sampling of what is hidden in those dozens and dozens of globes. I know there are only a few days left, but that is still enough time to visit your favorite stores or new names that catch your eye :) All SLurls can be found on their blog along with most of the hints.
The hidden globe at Always Design holds this stunning Poe9 Together Women gown with accessories. The gown itself comes in plenty of fitmesh sizes (standard, Belleza, Maitreya, Slink) and the earrings, necklace, and bracelets you see here are included, that is 4 separate bracelets on my right wrist so you can customize by choosing which to wear. There are matching shoes included, hiding beneath this floaty skirt, and the evening wrap comes in the same sizes as the dress. Not shown, 3 different colors of flexi skirts to go over the mesh one, for even more fullness. The best part of this, what makes it so versatile, is the HUD with 4 color choices for the dress and wrap! You can wear this all in red, white, black, or the royal blue as shown here.
Another dressy look can be found in the prize from Dulce Secrets, their Yukimi gown. This beauty comes in standard mesh sizes and consists of the gown, scarf, cuffs, and trim (a tiny ruffle where the solid color meets the pattern of the skirt) each in those same 5 sizes. Scarves can be so elegant and you don't need to worry about a necklace, just find a great pair of shoes and maybe some earrings and you are all set to celebrate the new year.
Perhaps you need a bit more color in your life, well how about this eye-popper from Cream Spaghetti Hair? I love this PP Knit Dress Neon Pack for the sleek style as well as those vivid colors, courtesy of a HUD that provides all 3 colors. The dress itself is provided in several sizes including standard, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, and Slink Physique.
While it is a few days past Christmas, I still feel like the holiday spirit is needed and appreciated so I enjoyed modeling this gift from Lemonade Couture. This is their Deck The Halls Dress and comes in many fitmesh sizes: standard, Belleza, Maitreya, Slink, Slink Hourglass, and TMP. My beautiful jewelry is from #2 of the 3 hidden globes at Shoenique Designs and J&W Jewelers, their Empress Collection. In this photo as in the globe, you can find the bracelet, necklace in two parts, and earrings (ear plumes). I think the necklace reminds me of cobwebs because of the delicate draping, and I have always felt that webs are a fascinating creation by nature so that is not an insult by any means. The rubies worked very well with the red hues in the dress.
One last look for the evening, this is our prize from Dusti's Odds & Ends and is called Holiday Gown in Silver. Such a flattering design, it is included in many sizes to accommodate nearly any body: 5 standard, 1 fitted, Belleza Freya, Belleza Isis, Belleza Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, and TMP. I love the idea of the modest neckline contrasted with the peekaboo back.
Whew, what a day it has been, what a week...what a year...I have no words for the sorrow I feel for the family of Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds in their time of grief, and I can only hope that 2017 will be much kinder to all of us. Magical magpie hugs to all of you!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am again showing you some of the terrific prizes you can find in the Swank Spooktacular Goth Hunt, just visit the Swank event showroom and look for black roses (which my windlight made look like shades of grey, purple, and burgundy) hidden about. There are so many designers there and most of them are taking part in the hunt, so you're bound to find plenty of free gifts to appeal to you. You have until the end of the month to enjoy this round.
First we have this dress from LUXE Paris, their Spooky Bandage Dress in plenty of mesh sizes which I call the lucky 13 (5 standard, 5 fitmesh, Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink) plus that decorated skull on the front and back. I love this flattering style, and the checkerboard trim up top really adds interest. That trim was a good reason for me to choose the prize from Athena Couture, their Zyana Earrings in Black, to complement the black and white theme. As you can see from the inset, they have delicate beads adorning lovely metalwork.
~Somerset~ has a playful little Neanderthal outfit hiding in their rose for us, just right for roleplay or simply for fun...I have seen some animal hide rugs with fun poses in them, as well as caves...now my mind is racing with ideas! This outfit is a single mesh piece in standard S, standard L, eBody, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, and Slink Physique sizes.
If you wind up feeling chilly and need something cozy to snuggle up in, how about this great gift from PREY? Their HW Loungewear (Ladies version shown, mens also included) is scattered with spiders on the pants, and while this looks like two pieces it is just one mesh piece in standard sizes. I couldn't resist the perfect match of color from the earrings I am showing you, although our gorgeous prize from Zuri Rayna will look terrific with anything you wear them with. They are called French Kiss Earrings in Black Cherry/Gold, and I am clearly a fan of the style and color. Just find those hidden roses :)
For something ethereal, check out the prize from {POSH PIXELS} named Ghastly Beauty v2. This hooded gown comes in standard mesh sizes, and included but not shown are a pale skin and even a hair to wear beneath the hood that also has a spectral paleness to it. You could go completely ghostly, or merely enjoy the gown as I did on its own, it's all up to you.
Two more lovely prizes can be seen here, a closer look than the previous photos. The eyes I am enjoying are one of two pairs found in the Dulce Secrets rose, Macabre Silver Eyes are shown while the other pair is Macabre Red. Each are included in system layers and mesh, and I really like the way the silver are ringed in purple and resemble the moon. My skin is the other prize I wanted you to see a better glimpse of, the WoW Skins prize called Rumya Bronze. You will receive system layers with and without cleavage, and this is a 2016 skin so if you already have those appliers (all can be purchased at the mainstore) as I did from group gifts and Midnight Mania prizes, you're all set! There is a notecard tucked in there to help you find the right appliers. I usually wear tan, so it was fun to enjoy a different skin tone, and the makeup is beautiful as you can see.
I hope you're all having a good day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
