Loud Rebel Design Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I visited Loud Rebel Design where I was delighted to find several group gifts for their free-to-join group, so naturally my first thought is to share with all of you :) There is a nice variety among the gifts from casual to formal, each in several sizes so we can wear these on many popular mesh bodies. I've enjoyed their style over the years so it is always a pleasure to show you their hard work.

We start this post with a fancy look called LRD Zyra dress Chalk gift. It includes sizes for Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with dropped sleeves that bare the shoulders and a draped slit on the left thigh. The floral pattern looks beautiful against the grey ombre, doesn't it?

I also adore the LRD Kaisa Gift, a strapless jumpsuit in a pale teal blue shade that reminds me of the ocean in summer. This group gift includes Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. It has a built in belt that is tied with a sweet bow, a simple adornment in a solid color to match our sequined pattern fabric. 

If the first gift I shared did not completely satisfy your craving for pretty ombres, maybe the striking LRD Sada dress GroupGift just might :) This chic wrap dress is provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, with an 8 color HUD so you can choose your gradient hue. The cap sleeves and midlength skirt make it a good choice for summer or into the fall, those warm but breezy evenings are calling!

Next we see the LRD outfit Marilyn GroupGift, a cute casual pairing of jacket with high buttoned blouse, and baggy cuffed jeans. Each piece comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes, with a HUD so we can choose from 4 colors for the jacket and 5 for the jeans. The extra jeans texture is solid denim with cuffs that match the jeans, rather than a color that coordinates with the jacket and blouse. 

For my final look this evening, I slipped into two of the 3 stunning versions included in the LRD Kamie dress Group Gift. In addition to the silver (left above) and gold (right), there is a black variety with the same glamorous sparkly texture, and each will fit Freya, Isis, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. With details like a single long sleeve opposite a bared shoulder, and a slit on the left thigh to show off even more skin, this dress looks amazing in all 3 colors! Plus I have to admit, it's kinda fun to remind myself of a disco ball ;)

I spent most of my SL time this morning trying on more mesh head demos, and it did not work out for me quite yet. I'm always so impressed when someone manages to make a new head look very similar to their previous appearance with a different brand head, because I have never managed no matter what I try even with the same skin brands. I am really eager to find one I can feel comfortable with, even if it doesn't resemble my current look. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Happy Pride Month

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are starting to celebrate Pride month with some wonderful gifts found at the Pride At Home region. Be sure to have a peek around and see what they have planned for the month here, and if you want to do some themed shopping there are also offers at many talented designers' mainstores. As for the gifts tonight though, they are all found at the Pride At Home expo area, lots of booths that have supportive and meaningful offerings with no group tag needed to claim most of the freebies. I am a longtime ally because of two special people in my life (my eldest first cousin on my dad's side who is in her 70s, and my godparents' son who has always been a dear friend since we were babies) who inspired me to be accepting, kind, and respectful of all. For tonight's post, be ready for lots of vibrant colors and possibly a refresher on the myriad of pride flag designs out there ;) I get some of them confused and every June I think I see new ones, so please forgive me if I get any mixed up as my memory is not what it used to be.

First we have the gorgeous LRD Imri dress Pride at Home from Loud Rebel Design, which includes 3 versions in each size. Those sizes would be for the Freya, Hourglass, Kupra Original, Kupra Bimbo, Kups A, Kups B, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. One variety says Love Is Love encircling the midriff, a simple yet powerful expression of equality. The others are slightly different rainbow gradients, and I adore them all. 

I combined two gifts for my next look, and they work so well together for multiple reasons. The top is the *NeverWish* Pride Glitter Heart Top gift, a cropped tee in sizes for Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, with a heart shaped patch that has animated glitter that you have to see in person to fully appreciate. There is a HUD with 19 designs for that heart, various flags such as the ally I chose for the left above and the bisexual flag on the right which was chosen more randomly. My shorts are from Apl.Blossom and are called Ericka Shorts - Pride At Home Gift. They include Legacy and Maitreya sizes with a 4 color HUD for the metals, so the waistband snap and chains that drape across the front. Plenty of rainbow hues make appearances on the design, and the high waisted style is quite flattering. 

Apl.Blossom's shorts came in handy tonight as a pairing for several other tops like this pair from CLUB KRUSH!. Their gift consists of crops and tank tops, with female sizes of the crop tee to fit Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. As you can see, they sport different versions of the LGBTQ+ friendly club's logo :) There are men's tank tops in the same gift and designs, for Belleza Jake, Signature Gianni, Slink, and TMP bodies. 

Some occasions are just more fun with a stole, LOL, especially one adorned with a meaningful rainbow. This is the #SCHOEN - Teddy Stole - Rainbow Edition, which I am wearing over my CLUB KRUSH tee but you can add to just about any outfit from casual tank top to elegant gown. The gift offers sizes for Erika, Freya, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Love Momma, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies, although I suspect that other bodies could work with one of those versions if their arms are a similar build. Not only did I get to show off the back of the stole here, but you can also see the rear of those great shorts to read the LOVE IS LOVE and see the rainbow of hearts down the mid seam. I love the butterflies on the right too!

Did you notice my new mesh nails tonight? Well let me show you a closer view of the Beaumore 'Rainbow' Mesh Nails which is one of two gifts they are offering at Pride At Home. We start with the unpacker HUD and choose our mesh body from the Freya, Reborn, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya buttons, then each delivers a folder containing almond, coffin, square, and stiletto versions with a color HUD. Use your body's HUD to hide their built in nails and right click-add your choice of mesh nails, then pop on that HUD and have some fun :) There are 5 variations of the rainbow gradient that you can apply to each nail individually. I am wearing the Almond shape on the left side of the photo, and the Square nails can be seen to the right. 

It was certainly a day...well I had a hard time falling asleep before my doctor visit, so I was concerned I would forget to mention important things and am still not certain I covered it all. I will need to visit another specialist soon, and some things generally improved while others worsened. Nothing shocking or overly troubling, and I have a few more busy days ahead which is typical for my Fridays and Saturdays :) The weather should be decent for the next few days, unlike this afternoon's storms that knocked my power out for a bit. I got home before they started and got some rest, so it was okay if not ideal. I have more Pride At Home gifts to share tomorrow, and am working on some other ideas for the next few posts since a new month brings new events and hunts. I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Pride at Home

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am delighted to invite you to the Pride at Home event, where the LGBTQ+ community and allies *waves happily* can come together and celebrate Pride month. There are special people in my life who are part of the community and have struggled for acceptance, so it means a lot to me to see such love and kindness at events like this. Support is crucial, and we all deserve acceptance of who we love or what gender we are. I picked up several free gifts at the Pride at Home sim, no group needed, and will be sharing their rainbow-y goodness in this post :) The event is open for the entire month of June, so there is plenty of time to visit as often as you wish. As always, I may reference sizes as men's or women's but that is merely the avatar build category to help inform which type of mesh body or shape they will best fit. I respect that not everyone fits into general categories. Okay, let the rainbow fun begin!

*NeverWish* has a trio of t-shirts for us as their gift, called Love is Love - Crop Top. There are black, rainbow, and white versions that are each provided in sizes for Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. They all have the Love is Love saying emblazoned on the front in a rainbow coloring, and I am loving the tie-dye look of the rainbow shirt! Naturally I couldn't resist wearing them with the LRD Samira jeans Gift from Loud Rebel Design, with its multicolored stripes that end in a paint drip design on the thigh, into a neutral grey denim tone. This gift includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body versions. You may have noticed my eyeshadow, another glorious rainbow which is part of the Keymoko - Pride Set Freebie. This includes system/BOM layers of rainbow eyeshadow and highlighter (seen in upcoming photos in this post) as well as a tintable cheek hearts layer. They look terrific, and really do bring an extra pop of color for June or any time of year.

I kept the LRD jeans on and the Keymoko eyeshadow, but changed tops to the Pride 2020 GIFT from 28LA. The fur comes in black and white versions (left above and right) that both have rainbow sleeves, along with our black tank top that says PRIDE. Each are included in Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes. For the men, there is a coat and a top that are each sized for Gianni and Jake bodies, so this is worth picking up for just about everyone :)

This next look could be assumed to be a single gift or from the same designer, but I was actually just lucky enough to pair up two different goodies. The shirt is the Pride Tee [Gift] from Palette, with a soft rainbow across the front with two strategically placed hearts in rainbow stripes. The gift includes sizes for Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Love Body, Love Momma, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. The cute panties are from ROULY, their Be My Lover Thong - Pride Gift. Inside you will find Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies. It is cut high in the rear in traditional thong style, but you have all seen quite enough of my bum on this blog so no rear view tonight ;) I would also like to draw your attention to my left cheek, where you can see another part of the Keymoko gift. This is their rainbow highlighter, included with the eyeshadow I already showed above and a pair of cheek hearts that you can edit and tint. The highlighter is in the remainder of tonight's images here.

Blueberry is so generous in general, so I was not surprised to see that their gift is two amazing bikini styles. This is the "Splash" of their Splish Splash - Pride Pack, with top and bottom each provided in Freya, Isis, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. There is a HUD for Splash that offers 9 textures each on 3 buttons- one for both at once, then a row for the top and another for the bottoms so you can change them separately if you prefer. There are also 7 metal choices, on/off for the ruffles, and Splash has a humorous Wedgie option on its HUD that includes an animation for picking it out. You can turn the animation off and leave it unpicked as I did on the right above so you could see, that left side is just slightly drifting its way into where it does not belong. I am also holding another gift, this one from DAZED. called Pride Phone Pride at Home EDT. It has a hold pose as seen on the left above, and there is a resize script built in that you can access just by clicking the phone. 

For my final look of the evening, I changed into the Splish bikini from Blueberry's thoughtful gift. Its top and bottom are included in the same sizes as Splash, and it has a similar HUD with 9 textures each and 7 metals, with the ruffles on/off option that I used to turn them off on the right. I must admit that I get confused by the various pride flags, but I believe I have non-binary on the left and pansexual on the right here. There is a lovely amount of representation among the textures offered, and the bikini is a terrific nod to Pride month being the beginning of summer so we should take time to frolic in the sun :) I haven't been to a beach in RL in years, but would gratefully slip into a pool right about now. 

I enjoyed a visit to my parents' for dinner, and am looking forward to my first trip to the farmers market in several weeks. Life has been weird lately, LOL, but I am definitely grateful to be able to return to one of my favorite places and chat with the awesome people. The tasty treats are part of the appeal too of course ;) I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Designer Showcase

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting the Designer Showcase event, who are celebrating their 10th anniversary with lots of gifts for everyone. Their VIP group is free to join, and most of the designers have a gift available at their display. I am so happy for them to reach such an impressive milestone! This round is open until the 25th, so you have a couple of weeks left to stop by and check it out. 

Our first look this evening is the gift from zOOm called Misty Dress, and it is a flirty little beauty. This sheer mini comes in eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing, with a 5 color HUD so you can pick your favorite shade. The rear view is as flattering as the front, don't you think?

1 Hundred. is also offering a translucent treat for all group members, their Sheer Sundress. Teal. There are panties in addition to the dress, each sized for Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies. Since they are separate pieces, you can always slip out of the panties if the occasion calls for it ;)

I was also impressed by the Tori's Stylez gift, which is called TS-Formal-Sylvana-V3-Fatpack. The top and skirt are each provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, with a 16 color HUD that also has the ability to turn the sheer layer on the skirt off and on. There are so many terrific colors to choose from, from deep to pastel, so one is bound to suit your mood or match any jewelry you might want to pair with it. 

Another striking formal look can be found inside the gift box from LRD (Loud Rebel Designs) called Zyra dress Chalk. This full length column gown has a daring slit on the left side, draped and gathered beneath the bare shoulders. The gift includes sizes for Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. I really like the ombre coloring, and the floral pattern.

My final look of the evening is an elegant and versatile gift from Sascha's Designs, their SAS - Sastrice WhiteBlack Gown. The mesh base gown comes in classic sizes S, M, L, along with Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink mesh body versions. There is also a shoulder deco made of floaty flexi, plus splash skirts for left and right (seen on the left above) and low flexi skirts (right in photo) attached to the left and right of the hem. With so many components to combine how you wish, you can get creative and wear it multiple times as completely different looks.

I would say I had a nice Saturday overall, with brisk but clear weather for my outing to the farmers market. The people there are always friendly and I enjoy chatting with them as one of the highlights of each week. I hope you're all enjoying your weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

SLF&O Gifts Galore

Hiya everyone! I have found even more SLF&O group gifts to share with you, so be sure to keep that free group tag active so you can claim these beauties for yourself as well. Some of these group tags act as all-access passes to unlock free gifts at so many stores, from a wide array of designers, so they are well worth the group slot to join and stay in the group. This is definitely one of those!

Our first stop is Loud Rebel Design, where you can pick up the lovely LRD Gown Astrid Gift. It is included in standard mesh sizes plus a fitted size, along with Belleza Freya, Belleza Isis, Belleza Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, and Slink Physique versions. The style is very alluring, with the subtle train and the curvy shape. I look considerably more busty with this dress on, I even adjusted my hair to fit better over my new curves.

The next place for us to visit is AnaMarkova, where you can find two SLF&O group gifts at the present time. This is their Kasia Onyx Lace outfit, strappy top and belted skirt each in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. These make an excellent pairing, and that leather texture on the skirt is particularly top notch.

The other gift from AnaMarkova is a pairing as well, their Jett Harness/Chain Dress LaRose. The dress is laced up the sides so it is quite revealing, and the chain harness drapes down the front then beneath the breasts. Each piece comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. 

Our final stop of the evening is AsHmOoT, where you will find their Ling Coll Lace Bralette & Slip, which is also called a band slip on the appliers but I think of them as almost boyshorts style panties. They are provided in system layers as well as Maitreya, Slink, and Omega HUDs for your favorite mesh bodies. They look both sexy and comfortable at the same time, an interesting feat for sure, and I really like the deep blue color.

I am still sporting the Truth Hair offering at Uber called Margarita tonight, with the flower accessory for the left side (right is also included, as is a HUD with 9 colors to tint the flowers) and I have played with the Stylist HUD more in tonight's post as you can tell. Hair tucked behind the ears or loose in front, and each side can be in front or behind the shoulder. The long waves are just gorgeous, and the versatility offered by the Stylist HUD and accessories makes this a must-have for me. I can never resist Truth's styles though, as you can tell :) 

I hope you are all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
