Hiya everyone! Tonight we visit The Wash Cart Sale to start our weekend, with $50L exclusive offers and various selections at each cart for $10L - $50L. You will find male and female fashions, accessories, and home decor among the variety of offerings, so you can bring your friends and SL family to enjoy the visit with you. I also picked up more Stay at Home Club gifts to share, as they are adding new designers all the time who are willing to give all visitors free gifts (no group needed) to help cheer us in these uncertain times. I am so grateful to them for their generosity, and I am proud to be a part of such a true community like Second Life.
First stop, the Steel Magnolia Design cart at The Wash :) This is their *SMD* Paris Dress with Hud, which can be yours for just $25L during this event. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies, with a 24-texture HUD. There are various colors and themed patterns, like the two above and some smaller Eiffel Tower images. There are other selections at their cart with HUDs as well, so plenty of versatile and affordable options can be yours by visiting the cart from my ending credits, and their mainstore link can be found right here.
If you love the versatility of HUDs like I do, be sure to stop by the Tiar cart where you could purchase this Sonjas Dress HUD 1 for a mere $25L. Its HUD offers 6 different texture choices for this lovely dress with the daring thigh slit, which comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. You can visit the Tiar mainstore by clicking here, and the direct link to their cart is in my ending credits as usual.
SALTY is one of the many stores currently participating in the Stay at Home Club by offering a free gift, namely this Emma - Blue dress. It comes in Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, trimmed with lace at the hemline. The harness style halter and belts are so flattering to all shapes and sizes, and the color is simple yet elegant. No group is needed, just visit and claim it for free.
I also stopped by at BellaBee, where you will find this generous gift called Latex Dress Jolina. It comes in 4 colors (light pink on the left, red on the right, black, and white) each sized for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. There is a bodylight provided too, which I suggest adding to really show off the shine of the material.
My final look of this evening features the Stay at Home Club gift from **Mistique** called Felicia print Pink. This fun bandana top is a long point in the front, tied in a pretty bow in the back, in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The pattern is eye catching and I am fond of the color too :) I paired it with the Delizio gift found on the Marketplace that appears here on my blog fairly often, several colors in system/BOM layers along with appliers for Maitreya and Omega.
I actually left the house today, so that was something different ;) It certainly helps to have SL and other ways of keeping in touch with people online. As a matter of fact, we decided that instead of my going to visit my grandmother for Easter, my parents (who will be there anyway to get groceries for her and her caretaker) will get us set up on facetime so a virtual visit :) Apparently she is aware that something bad is going on and people are sick, despite the residual effects of the stroke affecting her memory somewhat, but she watches television as entertainment so I'm sure she saw commercials and news breaks. Now that they want us to wear masks (after saying for weeks that they won't help) I ordered some from a friend from my penpal hobby days (mid-late 90s!) to add me to her growing list of orders. They are double layered and have a pouch for filters so I think I'll be using coffee filters in there, and they are washable so I can reuse them as long as necessary. We live in strange times, but it seems we just need to adapt and do whatever it takes to get used to a new normal. The only plans I have for the next several days involve possibly walking outside a bit to get fresh air, and mostly staying right here playing Animal Crossing and spending time in SL with Xan. I hope you all have something safe and enjoyable to look forward to this weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am continuing the Wash Cart Sale coverage, since there are plenty of bargains still to enjoy. Their Cool N Crisp round is open until the 22nd, so you have time to explore and grab demos to help you decide on your new autumn wardrobe additions. I am also continuing along the Womenstuff Hunt path, as there are over 130 participating stores so it is quite an impressive list. The prizes are hidden inside red t-shirts with green and brown stripes (see photo on the hunt website) so be sure you are finding the correct one :) Many stores still have previous gifts around in red/white or solid red shirts, either from the May 2019 hunt or older, so be sure to follow the hints from the website to find the right one. I felt like I needed something extra for my look, so I am also enjoying the Makeover Room offer from LIVIA to liven up my eyes. More details in the photo descriptions of course :)
My first look consists of selections from two different carts at The Wash, starting with Steel Magnolia Design and their *SMD* Penelope Dress. This lovely halter dress with eyelet lace ruffled skirt comes in sizes for Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies, with a HUD that offers 15 color choices. This is one of the $25L offers at their cart, and is not the only one to include a HUD for that added versatility :) Their mainstore link can be found here, and the ending credits will bring you directly to their cart as usual. As for my jewelry, I am wearing a $10L treat from Luminesse called Stiarra Sehar Set, which includes earrings and matching necklace with their Options Plus feature. This means that clicking any piece will bring up a menu with resize, full bright, shine, and more, so you can adjust these for the best fit and look to suit you. Luminesse is one of the many fine designers to make their home on The Wash sim, and their cart is very close to their mainstore so you can visit both in one trip.
As I started trying on Womenstuff prizes to show you, I must have been feeling particularly daring, because I chose to photograph the $1L Classy N Sassy prize without wearing any pants! It is not the most revealing thing I've ever worn on here though, not by a long shot, so I don't expect anyone to be horrified or anything :) It is their (CNS) Power Hoodie, in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizing. The shade of pink they chose is so charming, and a nice backdrop for the glittery gold words "Never Underestimate The Power of a Woman". I make it a point to try not to underestimate anyone, but especially the amazing ladies in my life. My first instinct is to pair this with jeans, but if I come across a pair of pants in plaid or a pattern with a similar hue of pink, that would be even better.
See, I do get even more risque! This fun look is our free prize from Vaxer, their Unity Outfit which is a single mesh piece in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. There is also a HUD provided with 10 colors for all, the belt, or the tights, so you can choose an "all" color then change the other parts from those sections if you wish. The silvery chains and buckles look terrific with any of the color options, and I think a nice pair of ankle boots or heels will complete this look well.
If you are a fan of slip dresses with lace overlay, plunging necklines, and petite bows both front and back, do not pass up the chance to claim this free hunt prize from [IDA-C]! It is called LILITH Dress Orange, and comes in Freya, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. All these details and that rustic color make it an ideal choice to 'pack' for a weekend getaway on a fall sim, while looking good year round as well.
I especially appreciated having extra touches of color on my eyelids tonight, and you can too if you visit The Makover Room for the LIVIA // Moon Eyeliner for just $160L during the event. There are 14 fabulous colors included, with bold cat eye liner and a swash of vibrant glittery color. There are plenty of options too, as these are provided in Catwa, Genus, and Omega appliers, and even Tattoo/BOM layers as I am enjoying here. The Omega and Tattoo layers have two versions so you can get the best fit possible; I am wearing the B which were designed for Genus heads. I love all the different colors and am glad my skin has a nude lip built in, so all the focus is on my peepers.
My day was busy but overall not bad. I am glad I voted, and then enjoyed a hell of a good hockey game in the evening :) I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
