Seraphim Trick or Treat Hunt

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we explore the Seraphim Trick or Treat hunt, in which we are looking for small carved pumpkins (jack-o-lanterns) surrounded by candy. They are free for everyone, no group tag needed, and they are hiding at the mainstores of several wonderful designers :) The website will guide you with pictures of the hunt prizes, which have links to each store when clicked and viewed full size. Confession - I didn't realize that at first and wound up asking about where to find the landmarks in the group chat the other night, and I'm sure the people who read it thought I was drunk or lazy :P  Believe me, these prizes are worth the bit of embarrassment I went through, and it was a pleasure to explore these generous stores. Some of the designers have out "trick" pumpkins like decoys that do not contain the prize, although one (HU, not shown tonight) had a prize in their trick pumpkin and the treat one with both being designed to be worn together. 

First up, we have the casually cute Luas Jogging Halloween Edition prize. The sporty bra top and shorts are provided in Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes. Both are decorated in a seasonal pattern including bats and stars, oh and I see a few crescent moons as well :) 

Maybe your spooky season will include a visit to a beach or pool, or perhaps you would simply love this sexy bikini as loungewear...either way, you can find it for free in the pumpkin at *HolliPocket* :) It is called Witchy Outfit and consists of the top and thong, each in sizes for Erika, Belleza Classic, Belleza Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies. There is also a HUD with 5 colors each for the bows and the strings, so we can change up the look quite a bit to suit any mood.

ERSCH has two treats waiting for us, one for the ladies and one with sizes for both. The outfit on the left above is their Candy Lingerie -halloween bats-, and its bra, garters, and panties are each provided in Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, Reborn Mounds, and Reborn Juicy sizing. There is also a HUD that offers 24 colors for the tiny bows and 5 metals for the chains on the panties, for added variety. On the right I removed the bra and covered up a little with the Sungie Haori -halloween bats-, which is the female counterpart to their Sung Haori for the gents, packed up separately inside. This one has sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn bodies, and can be layered over a wide variety of clothing. I chose to share them together for ease and especially since both gifts have the same seasonal pattern. 

I also found the treat pumpkin at .Aitne. and happily claimed this flirty Nora Halloween prize. I started to call it a dress, but upon reflection I think it might be a bodysuit with wide ruffled skirt attachment, but however you classify it I hope you enjoy as I do :) There are eBody  Reborn, Erika, Legacy, Perky, and Maitreya sizes provided, as well as a HUD with 4 different textures. Each option has a different background color and varied patterns, although the white has a blood stain on the front but not the back so more of a design than a pattern. The panty part is a daringly narrow thong, which is what made me realize it was not necessarily a dress. 

My final look of the evening comes from Belle Epoque, and is their striking Allegra - Hunt Gift. The skull pattern is dramatic and dare I say haunting, particularly on the long full gown's elegant styling. There are Legacy and Maitreya sizes provided, and you might need to use your body's HUD for some alpha tweaking as I did here with my Maitreya body. My thighs and belly were trying to play peek-a-boo through the mesh, easily remedied and such a sharp result :)

Tomorrow I have an appointment so I will be fairly busy, but it shouldn't interfere with blogging so I have a few possibilities to choose from for my next post. The closer we get to any holiday, the more things I might be able to share :) I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Womenstuff Treats

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post features more generous hunt prizes from the Womenstuff Hunt 2022. They are free and can be claimed by locating and clicking the red t-shirts hiding at each participating store, by using the hints in local chat at each stop. If you join or are already a member of the Womenstuff group ($50L fee to join) you can claim a HUD at their headquarters to teleport you from place to place. Otherwise you can follow this link that was shared with the group by one of the participating designers and has all the landmarks. I am grateful to all of the designers and the new organizer, who took the reins and brought this long-running hunt back to life.

First up this evening, I am pleased to share the Artic Storm prize called *AS* Tahara Jumpsuit & Heels Eve Pink. It includes the one-piece jumpsuit in sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, with matching sandals to fit Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Slink mesh feet. The jumpsuit has a built in belt that ties loosely in front, and the neckline is very flattering with the way it frames our cleavage.

Next I changed into the prize from Park Place Casuals called [PP Casuals] Celeste Bikini & Beach Dress. The bikini top and bottom, as well as the beach dress coverup, are all provided in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. We can wear them all together or individually if preferred. The women's aviator sunglasses I am wearing on the left are also included, and they are unrigged for easy adjusting. This store also sells terrific home decor, so be sure to explore that area too if you are looking for something new for your living area. I have several of their products and enjoy them very much :)

I also found the t-shirt at {Poeme}, which holds their lovely Clemence Summer Mini w/Texture HUD. The dress has a flirty cutout on the bodice, and a seasonal pattern of butterflies and blossoms in your choice of 6 colors via HUD. There are sizes for Altamura, eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies included. 

*HolliPocket* has a great prize waiting for us too, called Bambie Mini // Bunny. This strapless dress is trimmed with lace at the neckline, and there is a side slit on the right of the skirt that is laced up loosely to reveal even more thigh. I love the knit texture with soft bunnies scattered about, looking adorable. Find this prize and you will claim sizes for Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies.

My final look this evening just might bring a touch of elegance to your next outing :) It is the SKBW Aida Dress - Love prize from Skindustrial Bodyworks, a striking gown that falls just above the ankle with daring slit and single long sleeve. I really like the ombre too, a gradient of deep crimson all the way down to white. Our prize includes eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Kupra (Bimbo, Low, Original), Kups B, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, Physique, and Reborn sizes to fit a very wide range of popular bodies. 

It was an interesting morning for a very sweet reason...I looked out into my backyard and saw a tiny baby deer, curled up and just looking around probably waiting for its mom to return ♥. Then the generator did its weekly test cycle which is terribly loud and was only about 15 feet from the baby, so when I looked out next it was gone. I guess it ran away from the noise, or the mom heard the generator and found a quieter spot for her little one to rest. Naturally it was adorable, and looked smaller than any fawn I'd ever seen before, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was born right there this morning. I will certainly be looking out for it and all its relatives this summer :) I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Seraphim Hunt Prizes

 Hiya everyone! Tonight is a part two of the Seraphim Valentine's Day 2022 Hunt, as there are plenty of free prizes to fill another post :) The landmarks, hints, and preview images can be found on the Seraphim website, so you will need to have that open and available while you hunt. We have until the 14th, a.k.a. Valentine's Day, to find all the hearts which are red with a white front embossed with the Seraphim logo. Some are trickier than others, especially since a few of the hearts were resized smaller than average, but I had a lot of fun visiting all the participating stores. I had help since Xan and I used teamwork and had the bonus of spending time inworld together while admiring the various stores and all they have to offer.

For my first look this evening I started with the Emma Dress prize from Pink Cream Pie. It has a multicolored heart pattern with soft ruffle up top and flirty short hemline. The prize includes sizes for Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, with a HUD for the built in panties to choose from 24 colors and toggle them on or off. I also accessorized as you can see, with one of 3 terrific prizes found at Slavia! This is their "Belinda" Set, consisting of the necklace to fit Legacy, Kupra, and Maitreya bodies, and matching earrings. There is even a HUD that offers 10 colors for the pearls, 10 for the stones, 10 for the marquis shaped gems, and 3 metals. You can really change the look quite a bit, very impressive :) I even changed my hairstyle sooner than expected so I could show off the jewelry here more easily.

I also found the *HolliPocket* prize which is their Angelica SweetHeart Sky. This strappy bodysuit has a few spikes on each hip and big hearts covering each breast, but otherwise is crafted from slender strips in a lovely shade of blue. It comes in sizes for eBody, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. 

I had to chuckle when I realized that the heart this bear is holding is not decorated with roses which is how my brain interpreted it at first, but actually stuffed with condoms. It is the 'BAD IDEAS ' Lovesick Bear prize, and there are two versions - one to hold and one to use as decor in your home. He is a cute reminder that safety can be sexy, and I do like his built in holding pose.

Next I changed into the sexy Ruxy-Lily Dress Red Seraphim Hunt prize, trimmed with black flowers on its plunging neckline. It is provided in Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite sizes. Then I added another prize from Slavia, their "Lilith" Necklace. This beauty comes in rigged and unrigged versions to fit Legacy and Maitreya bodies, with a HUD to select from 10 diamond colors and 3 metals. The various chain layers have different charms on them, like the nail curved almost into a circle that holds the diamonds that change colors via HUD, or the ae character and a number 2. I'm sure these have a meaning that I am unaware of, so I apologize for not knowing the symbolism but I still find the necklace very attractive :) 

My final look this evening also shows off two prizes at once, starting with the [[Masoom]] Adira Top Hunt Gift. It comes in sizing for Freya, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, with intricate straps and a dark fabric dotted with tiny red hearts. The pants are the generous Ariana Joggers // FAT PACK from CLOCKHAUS, a dozen different colors and textures in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes. I'm wearing the black pattern on the left and the pink hearts on the right. They look so comfy, with the low rise waist and thick cuffs to softly hug just above the ankles.

I hope you are all having a peaceful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

HYIS Bound in Love

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I will be sharing more HYIS (Hunt for Your Inner Slut) hunt prizes, all of which are free and hidden inside golden penises. As I mentioned yesterday and you can probably guess anyway, LOL, this is an adult themed hunt and many of the stores are not safe for work or children or anyone easily embarrassed ;) The website has the landmarks and hints, or you can click the hunt object example on the sign at each store for the hint in local chat in many cases. I forgot to mention last night that the theme this round is Bound in Love, which leads to plenty of creative takes on that idea. There are just a handful of days left since the hunt wraps up on the 15th, so hurry and find those cocks!

First we have the Freya's Fashions prize called FF Sigrid Vest (Hearts) HYIS 2021. It comes in standard mesh sizes for classic avatars, as well as eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body versions. There is also a HUD provided with 9 vest textures, 6 laces colors, and 2 metals to combine any way you please. I paired it with the white pair from the Delizio jeans fatpack which is a free gift on the marketplace.

Those jeans came in handy for my next look too, where I changed into the [Glitzz] Tay Top - Pride prize. There are two versions of the cropped tank top, fishnet as seen on the left above and knitting on the right, plus a pair of nipple piercings, each in sizes for Freya, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. The piercings are bars through each nipple with a heart shaped gemstone on each side, and there is a HUD included with 8 gem colors and 3 metals.

This hunt prize has a daring rear view, doesn't it? The golden member at Spotlight contains their HFYIS - Nena Dress in Legacy, Maitreya, and Venus sizes. The collar and wrist bands are attached, and really add to the look. There is a HUD provided too, with 3 metal tones to choose from and an on/off option for the built in panties. At first I thought the buttons were colors for the panties, one red and one green, then I realized it was like green = go and red = stop, so on and off :) 

I also found the prize at *Flamingos* which is their HYIS Corset Gold. Its corset has panties and garter straps built in, and comes in Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes with alpha layers that you will need for the cinched waist. The white socks (stockings) are a system/BOM layer and match the thong part perfectly. I decided to accessorize with the Slave Necklace - Fatpack prize from !Domina!, a bold chain with Slave tag in sizes for Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies with an unrigged version you can adjust as needed. It is a fatpack not only because of all the sizes but because there is a HUD too, with 5 metal colors to choose from. Variety is certainly the spice of Second Life!

For my final look of the evening, we see the *HolliPocket* prize Melina Slip-berry. This sheer dress has two versions, lace and dot, each in Legacy and Maitreya sizing. I was pleasantly surprised when trying it on the first time to discover that the berry of its name is apparently blueberry :) This could be a dress or lingerie, depending on your plans for the weekend, and it is up to you if you want to add panties beneath. 

As often happens when I make plans, my chronic health issues stepped in and made me change them. I skipped dinner at my parents' earlier, and will most likely stay home from the farmers market but will have orders delivered so I will still have plenty of delicious food for the week ahead. It is disappointing, but better to decide ahead and plan appropriately then get there and feel even worse. Nothing contagious, nor life threatening, just inconvenient at times. I'm still taking the evening off from blogging tomorrow (Saturday) to relax, but will gladly be back Sunday with more treats. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

SL18B and Summer Carnival

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have two events for us to enjoy, so there is plenty of variety for all to appreciate. The SL18B celebration is still underway with a 16 region Shop and Hop, 320 designers offering discounted items as well as many free gifts. The gifts I am sharing tonight are all from the Frosted region, since I find it easiest to keep them sorted by which sim/region I found them in. I also stopped by the Summer Carnival at Malus, filled with "Fun in the Sun" until the 16th of July. There are exclusive offers, gifts of $25L or less, and even some gachas for those of us who enjoy the surprise of those addictive machines :) Let's get started!

My first look is an SL18B gift from [JUSTICE] called TERRY ROMPER - FATPACK. This strapless one-piece short outfit comes in sizes for Freya, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with a HUD to choose from 20 terrific colors. I really like the built in belt, a slender strand tied in a loose bow in the front that always matches the outfit's color perfectly. 

*HolliPocket* has a flirty duo of slip dresses as their gift for all visitors. Melina Slip includes silver and silver dot versions, with the original silver being decorated with an intricate lace design. Each are provided in Legacy and Maitreya sizes, and you can really tell from the rear view how transparent they are. I am a big fan of the crossed straps in the back, adding visual interest along with the textures.

I also found the gift from PULSE which is their Jazzy Dress - M Lara / Wine. As the name indicates, it is created to fit the Maitreya Lara body, and in a rich ruby color worthy of your favorite red wine. It has crossed straps both front and back, and the peekaboo belly cutout is an alluring touch. 

Next I slipped into a commemorative top that is the *PSS* Cosmos Tops SL18B Gift. This short sleeved crop top with sheer panel comes in Legacy and Maitreya sizes, in a deep turquoise with SL18B emblazoned across it. You can pair this with anything you wish, as I have done with the marketplace gift from Delizio who appear here rather often :) Their jeans come in several colors as system/BOM layers along with Maitreya and Omega appliers, so they are versatile in multiple ways.

For my final look of the evening, I warmly invite you to the Summer Carnival where we are visiting the HORL display for some gorgeous body art. The tattoo on my right thigh is their Faith Tattoo, and can be yours for $180L. It is a BOM (Bakes On Mesh) layer that can also be worn by classic avatars, but I am wearing it on my Maitreya body which is BOM compatible. The intricate design reminds me of the chandelier style tattoos that you might see on upper ribs beneath breasts, with this one being held up by a sprig of dainty flowers. The lotus in the center captivated me, and honestly is a big part of why I was drawn to share this with you. If you'd like to visit the HORL mainstore you can click >here<, while the link in my ending credits is for the event location. As for my bikini, that would be another marketplace freebie that I enjoy wearing when I need to cover up just the basics ;) It is called Lovelace Basic Bikini Black, and indicates as being for classic avatars but the system layers work as BOM too. 

It has been another hot one here with some thunderstorms this evening that made me a little nervous about possibly losing power, but *knock on wood* so far so good. They seem to be caused by a tropical storm off to the south, so eventually things will settle down. It's interesting how much the weather can affect people's moods without them realizing it. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Happy Anniversary Miix

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I would like to invite you to the Miix Event's first anniversary, where you can join their free group (called Hype Events) and claim a free gift from just about every designer who is participating. Anniversaries and birthdays in SL can really bring out the generosity in people, and it's fun to see how each event decorates and what the designers bring to the party. I am delighted to show some of the group gifts, which you can find inside brightly colored gift boxes. 

First we have the Lily Dress Purple from Ruxy, a flirty mini with plunging neckline decorated with flowers. This gift includes Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, so it fits many popular mesh bodies. 

Next I changed into the Kastle Rock Couture gift called :KR: Paris Escapade - Jewel. The fluttery top and wrap skirt are each provided in standard mesh sizes as well as eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine versions. The tops are labeled modest, and I really like the way the belt attached to the skirt matches the tops perfectly.

This flattering dress is the ::WD:: Dress Mila Spring Night gift from Web Dew. There are sizes for eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies, along with a HUD to change the lace trim to your choice of 20 colors. I am a fan of crossed straps for added interest on the rear view, and the ruffled hem is a visual treat too.

Another sexy dress is this gift from *HolliPocket* called Tania Mini slate. It comes in Legacy and Maitreya sizes, and has a delicate white lace trim beneath the short hem. The deep neckline is a real attention getter! The fabric is a bit sheer and has a nice shimmer to it. 

One more look for the day, but with two terrific group gifts in it...the bikini is the Vacori Bikini Collection Fatpackgift from MH Unique. The top and bottom are each included in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. There is also a HUD that offers 20 colors each for the top, brace (string), bottom, and its brace, so you can mix and match quite a bit. As for the tattoos, that would be the { Speakeasy } Yakuza Tattoo which are full sleeves suitable for any gender. This gift consists of fresh, faded, and worn varieties in system/BOM layers as well as Omega, Signature, and TMP appliers. Isn't the shading impressive? :)

I have an early afternoon appointment tomorrow so I will probably be fairly tired by the time I am posting in the evening. It won't prevent me from blogging though :) My day was nothing unusual or exciting, and I am just feeling anxiety about my upcoming 2nd injection and a few other random health things. So I am trying to focus on calm, peaceful things instead, and will be spending time in SL unwinding with Xan. I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Feeling Flirty at Halcyon

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more Valentine's Shop & Hop gifts to show you, plus an exclusive discounted offer, all from the Halcyon region. There are 8 regions/sims filled with displays of so many talented designers, all offering their seasonal best at reasonable prices. If you want to spruce up your wardrobe, daily look, or living space in SL, this is the place to find something new. 

We start with Entice, whose exclusive discounted offer is this gorgeous Summer Baby - Valentine. Its top and bottom are each created for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Legacy Perky, and Maitreya bodies, and the rainbow heart texture is perfect for Valentine's Day or any day you want to feel and look special. This outfit is just $180L which is marked down from $300L, so you are sexy and smart for saving lindens!

Entice also has a free gift for us, their Tiny Dancer - Violet dress. It comes in two versions, the one on the right above being called Sexy (honestly they both are, but that one is more sheer) with both in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies. The shapely dress is adorned with bows on the boning that creates its bell curves. 

I also claimed a generous gift from *HolliPocket*, called Katrina Sweaty-cranberry. There are Legacy and Maitreya sizes included, and the color is gorgeous as is the bold knit texture. I do enjoy a nice cropped sweater in SL :) It paired well with the Delizio jeans that appear here quite often, which are a marketplace freebie in several colors that are provided in system/BOM layers as well as Maitreya and Omega appliers. 

Back to more intimate apparel, as our free gift from FlowerDreams at Shop & Hop is their lovely Meg Lingerie Set. The bra and panties come in system/BOM layers plus appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink, and are complemented by a long flexi skirt. The long babydoll skirt has a resize script built in, just click it for the menu. 

My final look of the evening can be found as a free gift at the Faida display. Their satiny Maeve Hearts dress includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, and Hourglass sizes. The ruffles trimming the neckline and the hem are a bold red to match the heart pattern, so it will be very timely this weekend :) I personally do not limit my heart wearing to mid-February, but it certainly is a good time for it. 

It has been a fairly quiet day here, as I am still dealing with random health stuff and snowy, icy weather stuff. I will be going to dinner tomorrow at my parents', as we have some plans to discuss and information to share. I didn't go last week, so it will be nice to catch up. I am not going to the farmers market Saturday though, so they will be my so-called social life for the week ;) Wow that sounds lame! Of course I have plenty of online interaction so I do not feel totally isolated, which makes it easier to joke about. Meanwhile I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Reindeer Games Hunt

Hiya everyone! Tonight I would like to share some hunt prizes from the Reindeer Games Hunt, where each prize is $1L in the hidden twig reindeer or you can purchase for $25L at the sign in each store (also from a twig reindeer) if you prefer not to hunt. The hunt object is really cute, a rustic wooden deer decoration with a log as the body and twigs for limbs and antlers :) Most of the hidden ones are remarkably small, so it will help to follow the hints on the hunt's website. That is also how we navigate from store to store in this hunt path, no landmarks are provided in the prize folders. 

My first look this evening is from Applique` Chic, called AC: Dashing Deer Jumper Navy. It has a layered appearance but wears as a single mesh piece, with a subtly striped knit sweater beneath the pretty patterned jumper over top. The prize includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh bodies.

HolliPocket is offering this flirty BunBun Outfit - Holly Snow as their hunt prize, crafted specifically for Maitreya mesh bodies. The top has a hood with long bunny ears dangling from it, and the shorts are trimmed in wide snowy white lace. It makes me want to snuggle in front of a fireplace :)

This seasonal goodie is our prize from Grumble called Ruffled Holiday Mini - Santa. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. The style features a halter neckline tied in the back with long bow, and an empire waist with cascades of ruffles. I thought the pattern on the top with Santas was a very cute touch.

We all need and deserve some pretty lingerie, whether to wear for a special someone or to simply have the confidence boost of wearing it beneath our outerwear for the day :) So I highly recommend the hunt prize from Freya's Fashions called Rachel Red & Teal Stars. It is provided in system/BOM layers as well as appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink, so you can enjoy this with classic avatars or your favorite mesh body. 

My final look tonight is a closer view of my nails, which happen to be our hunt prize found at Go Frock Yourself. Their ~GFY~ Tangled Nail Appliers come in Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink HUDs, each with 5 designs as shown above. Those sure are some tangled lights, but at least there is a dainty view of them neatly across the tip on one design :) The white background makes me think of snow, which is also quite appropriate for this time of year.

It was a tiring day, so I am practically fantasizing about being able to go to sleep in several hours ;) There is always so much to do on Fridays and Saturdays for me, so this drained feeling is all too common. I'll get a few hours rest before the farmers market, so it will be fine. I hope you all have a beautiful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Steamy Summer Night

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more treats to show you from the Women Only Hunt 5, which you can claim for yourselves by finding hidden coconut halves in participating stores. The locations and hints are on the hunt website, so be sure to have it open to refer to during your hunting. These are some wonderful prizes and it's quite an opportunity to collect high quality clothing, accessories etc. for free.

First we visit Petite Mort to claim their Pink/mint Floral Madison Dress, with a faded denim top and belt above a flirty flowered skirt. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique, so there are sizes for many popular mesh bodies. 

For something extra sassy, find the coconut at HolliPocket and you will receive their Summer Fling Suit - Floral Maitreya. It comes in a single Maitreya size, and has a unique style scattered with tiny flowers. 

Beautiful Dirty Rich has this sexy Hello Sunshine swimsuit as their gift for all who find their coconut. It included standard mesh sizes plus versions for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. There is also a HUD provided that offers 6 textures as well as materials on/off and a slider for glossiness, so you can really have fun adjusting this to your personal preferences. Those high cut hips lead to a thong back, very alluring.

Another key component to a sultry summer night is lingerie, so be sure to find the coconut at [Glitzz] to claim the Sugar Lingerie for WOH5. The red top and panties each come in sizes for Maitreya and Hourglass, and have tiny buttons down the back of the top and a trio of them in front of the panties. 

For my last look of the evening, I get to show you two of the several dresses inside the coconut at ERSCH. They are Vacation Dresses all in Maitreya sizes, in 5 different textures: Mint Seashells (left), Pink Flamingo (right), Blue Fish, Peach Starfish, and Violet Starfish. All have one shoulder dropped down suggestively to one side, frilled sleeves and hem, and are short enough that you could layer these over shorts/pants to wear as a tunic style shirt. 

My plans for the day wound up right on track, no last minute cancellation (whew!) so I am relieved but tired. That isn't a big deal, just an observation :) I am going to have an exceptionally busy weekend, last minute but very welcome houseguest for the weekend, so my blogging schedule could be slightly affected. I do hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
