Another Visit to Bon Odori Festival

Hiya everyone! I have some more lucky board prizes to share from the Bon Odori Festival I blogged about yesterday, and I'm doing so from my new home. I moved from one rental to another for a change of pace, and am really excited about it. So let's have a look at those prizes that I'm also thrilled about!!

First we see a very fun prize called Mini White Net Dress and Parasol set, no store associated but the creator was yuna21 Steig (no stores in picks, nothing in profile). The pretty lace umbrella has a built in hold pose, and opens and closes on clicking, but I had to adjust it as it was in a strange default position floating in front and above me instead of in my hand. It was an easy fix and I quite enjoy it. The dress is provided in XS to M sizes, so a nice range and I had no trouble fitting it :)

I feel like a sexy Snow White with a twist or two! This fantastic outfit is a prize created by Whitening Brune, no store in profile picks but she does have a marketplace store linked in her profile. This outfit includes the mesh dress in S and XS, the big bow on the back that looks somewhat like a collar (resize menu built in), the flexi sleeves, and hair bow with flexi lace that is mostly being eaten by my curls ;) With all those separate pieces, you can wear this outfit in many different ways so it's beautiful and versatile.

I had fun with this photo because you get to see a non-clothing lucky board prize too and it's a cute one! My toaster friend there is a lucky board prize from {Aya} and is called Kawaii Toaster. The left shows its resting state, then the right shows it about to prepare toast. It even has a >_< face for while it's toasting the bread. My shirt is a lovely lucky board prize from Kai, and looks great from the back as well as the front with that pretty heart and beads. Sizes S, M, and L are included.

If you want to feel like a rock star, these prizes will help you on your way. The shirt is a lucky board prize from [*.::&Y::.*] called Opened Ring Top, and I am loving that animal print! The guitar is another lucky board prize, this one from Witch Babe and called V-Kill Skull & Rose. It comes with a HUD with animations for playing and for dancing with the guitar, so I had a lot of fun being silly :) 

This prize from Spiral is surely an elegant one, called Side Slit Jumpsuit. I love the gold of the top accented by the silver of the belt, and black always looks so sharp when contrasted with metallics. This style is all about glimpses, the flashes of skin on the legs and in the back and even the sides of the top. I love it!

I have no nail note of the night because those are the Slink default nails, untouched by any appliers....I was getting script error messages and found out that I had to get a redelivery at the Slink store to update to the newest version, so I did that and applied my skin but never got around to doing my nails. Perhaps tomorrow I'll find something extra special for them :) Meanwhile I hope you're all having a beautiful evening, many magpie hugs to each of you!!

Wrapping Up The Weekend

Hiya everyone! I have a really nice way to wrap up the weekend, as I worked on a fun little hunt the past couple of days and am ready to show you some of what I found. Let's start with an explanation though, as it's not a typical hunt. It's called the Yagi in Summer Hunt & Stamp Rally, and you will visit 15 stores while wearing their HUD to get stamps on each store's logo. Also at each store, you will find prizes (between 1 and 5, indicated on the sign at each location) in little goat footprints. It looks like a stone with a hoof on it, or if you took a clay mold of a footprint. There are examples on the signs so you'll know what to look for. The first location helps greatly. When you get all 15 stamps on the HUD, you'll be given a location to go for the completion party where there are even more great prizes awaiting!

Here is a look at prizes from 2 of the stores. The outfit is found in the 3 prizes at La Bonbonniere, and is called JANE Sunflower bra, skirt, and blouse. I am so ready for a pool party in this beauty! Each comes in standard mesh sizes. The piercing is our prize from Baroqued and is called Neutral Lip Cuffs, and contains a resize script. 

Being an American with very little exposure to Japanese culture, I would have called this a kimono but did some googling when I saw they are calling it a yukata. It seems the difference is that the yukata is a summer kimono, so I wasn't far off :) The yukata and the obi (belt) are in 2 separate prizes to be found at c*C*c, and I am really blown away by the knotwork on the front. I am definitely starting to like the color yellow more and more with the lovely outfits I've found lately in yellow :)

This cheery mini dress is one of 3 different prizes found at Spiral, called Mini1P AZ and is actually prize #1 of their 3. The style is a fun one, and great for the season.

This terrific outfit is the prize from La Bonbonniere at the completion party location, when you collect all the stamps and can go to the special destination and click all the rewards. I'm not giving out the location even though you may have to be wearing a full HUD to claim them, so in the credits I'm just linking these to the main stores. This terrific gift includes the dress, Slink high shoes, and a pretty sun hat not shown only because my hair wouldn't permit it ;) I love the soft colors and the alluring side slit on the left leg, and those sandals are a delightful match.

Another goodie you'll find at the completion spot is this elegant retro style dress from c*C*c called HAIJI. I love that the style has a modern twist with that plunging neckline, mixed with the classic colors and style. 

Nail note of the night: I went with the free gift from Hello Dave found at the FabFree Headquarters, their Summer Reflections Stiletto HUD, as it had plenty of suitable colors and is a favorite of mine even without my nails set for stiletto style. They are one of those free gifts that I'd have gladly paid for because I enjoy them so much, but am infinitely grateful that they were free! It lets me spend my lindens on other nails there ;)

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, whether it was relaxing or busy but productive, or just plain ol' fun :) Mine was a bit of each, and I would have to say it was a really good one. Magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Kiyomizu Revisited

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some more treasures from the Kiyomizu Hunt to show you, as I've been enjoying it immensely and am really grateful for all the treasures I've found in those cute ninja cats.

This rockabilly style dress from Spiral, #75 in the hunt, is a perfect way to welcome spring if you like floral prints but prefer the print to be an accent rather than the whole dress. It seems like a great way to take a bold print and make it feel more subtle.

So soft and delicate! This is from a store called 10*4, and they are #65 in the hunt. The flowers and lace are a sweet complement to each other.

I am so very excited to show you this one! You may remember that in my first post of Kiyomizu hunt gifts, I showed a beautiful kimono from White Shell. Well this is their prize from their mainstore which is #58, and it's the same gorgeous pattern in a ruffled strapless mini dress! The kimono had included matching sandals, but for this dress they have included that gorgeous necklace I'm wearing in the photo. You can definitely tell that I love this one and am going to be visiting this store again and again :)

For another strapless dress that's a much less bold pattern, we have the dainty design on this flirty dress from Leaf. They are #74 in the hunt. I can picture this as a good choice for a date night.

I had 3 pictures for this tank top but when I went to edit my photos (cropping and adding my name only, I don't touch them up at all) the ivory one seems to have vanished, hehe, but you do get to see these two which are labeled part-ivory and pink. I see it as blue, but we don't want to start one of those controversies ;) Rather than a HUD, you get each color in each mesh size, so it's a very generous folder full from Toh-ryan-se #73.

My nails in each photo are from a great freebie I found on the marketplace, called (AB) Reila. You get several different colors for slink fingers and toes, either plain or with a white tip like a French manicure.

Well, I hope this week is being good to you, and I thank you sincerely for taking the time to read my blog. I'm still new to blogging but I am enjoying it, an outlet for creativity and a chance to help people find appealing bargains in SL. Hugs!!
