Trick or Treat Lane

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're headed down Trick or Treat Lane, the annual event that is loaded with exclusive offers and a special hunt. The way that works is that you can hunt around the area for a free ghost, or if you prefer not to hunt you can simply purchase the prize from their booth for $50L. They are on hay bales in bags with the sign that shows you what's inside, and the website has many of the images available for us to window shop :) We have until the end of the month, fittingly Halloween, to enjoy the shopping and hunting.

First this evening, we see the lovely and spooky DI Spider Split Dress GIFT from Dark Intentions. It is awash with cobwebs and the arachnids who spun them, on a background that reminds me of antique books or wallpaper :) We receive sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies when we find the free ghost or buy the bag at their display.

The JR Wolf Creations hunt prize is their Agatha Dress Purple, a satiny treat trimmed on black ruffles and with a built in collar that is connected to the neckline in a way that almost resembles a tie at first glance. There are Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes provided.

I'm definitely ready to to dancing in our SF . Avenoire Dress - Witchbane treat from Senzafine! That plunging neckline will surely turn heads, and I love the subtle swirly pattern on the fabrics. It fits Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. Those sleeves are a wonderful detail too, loose and open with a long bow on each forearm :) 

If you are deeply into the Halloween mindset, be sure to find the zOOm - Pumpkin Mood Bodysuit & Bolero prize to let your fashions speak for you. The bodysuit and bolero are separate pieces, both in sizing for Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The bodysuit is cut so high on the sides that the rear view is a bit revealing for some, so I would suggest layering a loose fitting skirt or pants over this to wear to G-rated areas. In case you can't read it, the front says "Current Mood" above and beneath the carved pumpkin and his grinning visage.

My final look tonight is our [Witch In A Box] Baelfire Outfit hunt prize, and I was instantly enchanted :) Pun intended, maybe? We receive a boldly slashed/zippered dress and funky studded boots each in Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes, along with a HUD offering 5 textures for the dress. I simply must mention the one on the left above, saying "Don't be a lady, be a legend" which calls to mind the quote that well behaved women seldom make history. Love it! Also those boots, if they aren't too heavy I'd much rather wear those in RL than heels that'd make me fall on my face, LOL, and we get one wing on each boot so they work together to make a pair. 

It was an unexpectedly busy evening here, in a very good way :) My friend needed to do our Thursday multiplayer (Hello Kitty Island Adventure) early because her weekend visitor is arriving a day early, so we wound up playing today instead. This way she can spend tomorrow finishing her prep for his visit (her father-in-law) and I'll be getting my hair cut and tamed ;) As unruly as my hair is, I think I'm a pretty easy client to deal with because I know what I want and don't argue or say "surprise me" or anything that would stress out my stylist. 3-4 inches off, long layers, slightly angled around the face, whatever keeps the curls from turning into a frizzy mop. I hope you're all having a blissful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Trick or Treat Lane

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm inviting you to this year's Trick or Treat Lane event, which is doing things a little bit differently than prior rounds. There are exclusive offers as usual, and the tricks/treats this year are the change...we have the choice of buying the treat for $50L at each booth, or search the entire half region for a ghost holding a small bag for free. Previous years the designers could choose to either hide in their booth for a trick, or put out for free on a hay bale for the treat. So this year we get to see a photo of the treat next to the bag to purchase, then decide if we want to hunt for it for free or pay for it right there. The website is helpful too with photos and explanations :) I love this event, and had so much fun searching around the beautifully decorated region! Be sure to check high and low, inside the booths, up trees, behind decorations, just anywhere you can think of to track down all these sneaky ghosts.

My first look is the charming [Witch In A Box] Corvina Dress. This sweet treat (yours free in the hunt, $50L at the display, your choice as with all of tonight's looks) has a HUD with 6 textures, so we can choose solids or starry patterns for the fabric. The dress is provided in Freya, Kupra, Kupra Bimbo, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizes.

If you'd like something flirty, be sure to find the Miamai_Witchy Bodysuit BOM prize! It is just as advertised in the name, a BOM (system tattoo) layer, in black lace with a sheer center that has a pentagram (pentacle?) in the middle. The halter straps are crossed in the front to loop around the neck, so pretty! It is great for this time of year, or any time if you are so inclined.

Dark Intentions has 2 ghosts hidden for us, one of which holds this intriguing DI Not So Innocent Dress (ToTL). It comes in sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Petite, Peach, Prima, Prima Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. I'm not sure what I managed to get all over my dress since my innocence would mean it's something harmless and accidental, right? Something sure did splash a lot...

If the suspicious pattern on the last dress was not your thing, perhaps the DI Cute Ghosts Dress (ToTL) also from Dark Intentions is more your speed :) The colors alone made me extra happy, and the friendly looking spirits are a nice touch too. This dress is the same style as their other prize so the same sizing, and a now-familiar handkerchief hem or skirt with the sides draped just so. It really flatters our curves too!

My final look this evening is the Enchanted Dress Purple prize from JR Wolf Creations. The unique style shows a ruffled hemline that has been torn on the right, making for an opening and a trailing ribbon down the leg. Find this ghost and you'll receive Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes. The deep purple hue has a maroon tint in my lighting, very intense and attractive.

It was a hectic type of evening, but that isn't entirely a bad thing. I went out briefly before a late dinner, then my mom decided we all needed to discuss Thanksgiving plans even though I'll be seeing her for dinner tomorrow. If you're confused by that, so was I, LOL! Pulled the dear family friend/occasional houseguest into the text convo, as they are attending as well, and we have more of a game plan so all is well. I'm watching a late (west coast) hockey game that's getting pretty wild, making me gasp and make noises that are probably too loud for this time of night. Oopsie. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Trick or Treat Lane

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I switched gears once again, this time to visit the wonderful annual Trick or Treat Lane event from Dark Passions Events. There are dozens of designers with booths there, who are all offering event exclusives as well as a trick or treat gift for everyone. No group is needed for those, and there are two types - treats, easily found on the hay bale in front of each display, or tricks which means the ghost hid the little folded shopping bag inside the booth somewhere. A few stores are even providing both, a trick and a treat :) All gifts are free with no group tag necessary, just explore the creatively decorated area and have fun browsing. I sure did! There are many different pathways and I think I got lost a couple of times, lol, but I have a very poor sense of direction naturally so I wasn't surprised. If you'd like a sneak peek, be sure to check their website for a list of most of the participants with pictures of the exclusives and the gifts. 

My first look of the evening combines two gifts that are delightful for the season :) The top is the zOOm - Gothic Corset GIFT, which has rings to resemble nipple piercings and inverted crosses on both front and back. It fits Erika, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. I've worn it here with both versions of the [Witch In A Box] Halloween Skirt Gift, which is a bat lover's dream of a high waisted miniskirt with built in belt. There are sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies provided in each version, 1 and 2, so now you just have to decide which color combo suits you best. 

Dark Intentions is one of the extra generous stores with both a trick and a treat, in other words two free gifts awaiting! I'm wearing the DI Trick or Treat Dress (Treat) on the left, and DI Trick or Treat Dress (Trick) on the right. Both of these beauties consist of the crossed halter strap dress and separate sleeves attachment, each in sizing for Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. The treat dress has a sparkly coral color decorated with lots of jack o' lanterns, while the trick dress is striped boldly in black and red. Either will look just as great without the sleeves, but if the weather calls for a little arm coverage we always have the option :)

I also found a treat (or was it a trick?) at the JR Wolf Creations booth, which is their stunning Moon Dress. The shiny strapless mini has a small opening to show off a peep of cleavage, and is embossed with a crescent moon pattern as mentioned in its name. There are Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Reborn Juicy mesh body sizes included in this generous gift. While I do associate moons with Halloween decorations, I don't think of them as exclusively for this time of year any more than hearts as only for Valentine's Day, as both symbols have strong significance no matter what the calendar says.

Any time you see Grumble listed for an event, you know you can expect something wonderful, like this Creepy Crawlers Dress I was able to pick up for free :) The vibrant colors certainly caught my eye, with bats and spiders among the critters hanging out with the carved pumpkins in the pattern. There are sizes for eBody Reborn, Juicy Boobs, Freya, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies provided. The bodice is quite daring with the underboob cutouts and abundance of straps, but the essentials are covered and done so in style.

My final look of the evening combines an exclusive from this event, and a gift that is one of two, all from the same incredible designer. The [Ari-Pari] Glitter Web Dress is the exclusive among several sales offers in this booth, and it fits eBody Reborn, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. There is also a HUD with an impressive 18 colors of the webby texture. It's already sexy from being strapless, but then we add the openings on both sides, both front and back, delicately laced just loosely enough to show even more skin...*chef's kiss* :) In my hands you can see the [Ari-Pari] Jack-O-Lantern gift, one of two at the event. It comes in lit and unlit versions to hold (lit is shown) and lit or unlit, mini and large versions as decor to rez out into your living space. The other gift is wonderful too, a magic cauldron with hold and decor versions with a color HUD for the potion inside. These are must-haves, and I'm grateful for them as I am for everything shown.

It was a quiet day compared to what I'm expecting tomorrow, with a therapy session that will probably involve going out somewhere and triggering my anxiety. While I try not to think negatively and expecting problems, the therapist does feel like we need to provoke the anxiety in order to sit with it, get through it, and retrain my brain that hey, I survived that so we don't need to get all worked up. It almost sounds like having a muscle cramp and having to stretch that body part even when it hurts, to get it to release the cramp and heal. I've been watching other teams' season openers, and tomorrow I get to see my favorite hockey team playing in the regular season finally :) So I do have something to look forward to in the evening, and then dinner Friday with my parents. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Trick or Treat Lane

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm inviting you to the Trick or Treat Lane event, where you can find exclusive themed sales items in addition to tricks and treats. Each designer's display (in a large cauldron) has a hay bale in front with a sign telling you if their gift is a treat you can claim from right there on the hay bale, or a trick so the gift bag is hidden somewhere in their display. A few even have both, so one trick to search for and one treat that is easy to find :) There are photos of the gifts above the hay bales, and it is always fun to explore this event as with any Dark Passions event. It's open until November 1st, so you can visit and pick up demos, think things over, and return at your leisure to do some shopping. 

First up this evening, we see the Dark Intentions gift called DI Itsy Bitsy Boo Dress. This strapless flared mini is trimmed with ruffles at both hems, and comes in sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. There is also a HUD with 9 color choices for our background, which is decorated beautifully for the season with spooky skulls, ghosts, cobwebs, and more. 

Next I changed into the flirty [QE] Mallory Bodysuit & Skirt Halloween gift, a very well hidden tricky treat ;) The bodysuit and frilled micro miniskirt each fit Freya, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. We also receive a handy HUD with 3 choices each for the bodysuit, ruffle (trim on bodysuit), and skirt. The skirt and trim are solid colors that coordinate well with all three Halloween themed patterns for the bodysuit.

There are several tops among the generous gifts available at the event, so I slipped into my favorite jeans from Delizio (free on the marketplace, this is the black pair of 9 colors) and dove in! The lovely sweater on the left is the SF . Luciana Top - Bloodletting gift from Senzafine. It hugs the body except for those bell sleeves that are decorated with lace, and we seem to have had an encounter with something messy and red...surprisingly common for this time of year ;) Our gift includes Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Reborn mesh body sizes. The corset on the right is the JR Wolf Creations Spidey Tube Top, black with a swarm of golden spiders that are here for a visit. Sizes include Alice, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. 

Witch In A Box will help us tempt someone to live dangerously with their Danger Zone Top GIFT. It comes in green, purple, and yellow versions, that each fit Legacy, Legacy Pushup, Maitreya, and Reborn Juicy Boobs bodies. The skull and crossbones adorning each have the words DANGER ZONE floating around them too, and is it my imagination or is this top shaped like a bat? That is a fun choice for this holiday!

My final look this evening is the ::BoD:: Umbra Halloween halter top from Beauty of Darkness. Their generous gift includes sizing for Erika, Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies, plus a 6 texture HUD so we can change the look at will. They are all fun choices for Halloween, with a couple being perfect for any time of year. 

It was a quiet day and a hockey-filled evening, not my team but other teams' first games of their season. I have to go to the podiatrist again tomorrow because of a few toenails that grew faster than usual and more inwards (?) so they have been painful for a while now. I need to talk to him about how to prevent this from recurring so quickly, as my insurance will only pay once every 9 weeks. Sometimes minor medical issues can really be a nuisance, but I try to keep on top of things when possible to prevent them from becoming major problems. I hope you're all having a peaceful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Touring Trick or Treat Lane

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we continue along Trick or Treat Lane, where we can find exclusive sales items as well as lots of generous gifts. Each pumpkin shaped booth has a picture of the gift on the left side of the doorway along with a ghost that tells you if it's a trick (find the gift inside) or treat (gift is right there below the sign). Either way, we are being treated very well this Halloween :) I enjoy this event every October and I hope you do too. Their website has sneak peeks of the exclusive offers and the gifts. 

My first look is the hilarious Grumble-Awesome Tees-Poop gift. It reads "Don't scare me I poop easily!" with bats and an assortment of fun fonts. This cropped short sleeve tee comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. I am wearing it with my favorite marketplace gift, a fatpack of jeans from Delizio (these are the blue shade) in several colors as system/BOM layers plus appliers for Maitreya and Omega.

JR Wolf Creations has a lovely gift waiting for us named Seer Dress. It has an entrancing pattern of hands and moon phases on a backdrop of the nighttime sky, with long sleeves and two front pockets. It is provided in Alice, Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizes. While it is an excellent choice for this season, I will gladly wear it year round.

There are two terrific gifts at the Senzafine booth, so be sure to find them both to receive these beautiful dresses. On the left above I am wearing the SF . Sera Dress - Necromance, with SF . Sera Dress - Spellbound on the right. They each come in sizing for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. The bare shoulders and frilly trim on the neckline are perfect details for this empire waisted mini. 

I also found the zOOm gift, their striking Asymmetric Dress. It has a dramatic angled hem that goes from mini to maxi, with a high neckline and sleeveless style for just the right amount of skin showing. The gift includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, with a 6 color HUD so you can change the look with ease. All of the colors have a bouquet of flowers on the left hip that trails down the overskirt. 

My final look of the evening is a seasonal treat from Eventyra, formerly Dark Passions, who are the organizer of this amazing event. Our gift is their Nail HUD - So Toxxic with 6 designs to decorate your Slink, Belleza, Maitreya, or Omega-compatible nails. The vibrant green goo is either at the tip or cuticle of each design, with bold black stripes on white or purple backgrounds. The one I chose on the right side of the photo looks like we might have clawed our way into some blood, yet the stripes make it all remind me of a spooky carnival. 

It was a nice weekend, but I'm sure many of us wish it could have lasted a little longer. There was an adorable French bulldog at the farmers market, making friends and doing lots of happy wiggles. It was the coldest weather yet this season, still warmer than usual for late October, but a few of the vendors who are from warmer climates like Puerto Rico were not exactly thrilled about the cooler temperatures. She was bundled up with gloves on, while I was fine in a light jacket. I have a few tricks up my SL sleeve for places to invite you, more free gifts to be found, and I'm really excited about my next few posts because of it. I hope you're all having a great day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Trick or Treat Lane

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I am starting my weekend at Trick or Treat Lane, an annual event with exclusive sales items and free gifts from every designer. They are either tricks or treats, meaning the tote bag they are in is either hidden inside the store's pumpkin-shaped booth or out in the open on the hay bale to the left of each display. There is an impressive lineup of participants, of which you can get a sneak preview if you wish by visiting their website. This is such a fun season for shopping!

This pretty look starts with the Dark Intentions gift called DI: Boo Long Tank, that I am wearing as a dress. It comes in sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, with a 10 color HUD to change the background hue of the Halloween themed pattern. Its short length works well to show off the alaskametro<3 gift "Black Kat" limited edition tights, which are provided in system/BOM layers and an Omega applier. The kitty is so cute, and did you notice the tails on the back? Such cute details!

If you need some seasonal lingerie, be sure to pick up the [QE] Lilith Lingerie -Halloween- gift from Trick or Treat Lane. Its bustier and thong are each included in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizes, with a 3 texture HUD so you can choose from three different color combinations. In addition to the two above, there is a dramatic black and white option that is just as sexy :) 

Witch In A Box is offering a Halloween Gift dress just for finding their treat bag, and it is gorgeous! This strapless mini has a solid black top tied with a satiny bow above the tight skirt smattered with a rainbow of stars. It comes in sizes for Alice, eBody Curvy, Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. 

I also eagerly grabbed the treat from 1313 Mockingbird Lane, called (*<*) 1313 Norma Jean Bikini - Gothabilly. It has a terrific unpacker HUD that lets you choose just the size(s) you want to deliver - Kupra, Kupra Kups, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya, or Maitreya Petite - and once you click it you will receive a folder with the top and bottom inside. The bikini top has a fun double strap in the back and a contrasting white halter strap, while the bottom is high waisted with roses and skulls adorning it.

My final look of the evening is the treat from Sn@tch, their hilarious Wrong Crop Top. It includes eBody Curvy, Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite body sizes. There is also a HUD as you probably guessed, with 6 amusing sayings to choose from. You can select Trick, or Treat (as I did on the right), Little Ray of Pitch Black, On everyday we wear Black (left above), Not a Costume, or Boo!. I feel like if Wednesday Addams were in SL, this is something she would wear, and I mean that as a fervent compliment :)

Are you ready for the weekend? I had a really nice visit with my parents for dinner, and am looking forward to the farmers market in the morning. The weather should be cool but not rainy, although I think the clouds will make it feel extra chilly so a light jacket might be in order. I remember when it used to feel like winter in late October and even had snow for Halloween on occasion, but I think the last snowy Halloween was about 10 years ago. I will be taking my customary Saturday evening off from blogging, but I'll return Sunday with some more Trick or Treat Lane goodies because you deserve to see more. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Trick or Treat Lane

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some treats to show you, quite literally, thanks to the Trick or Treat Lane event. This is the 5th round of the annual tradition, and every participating designer is offering an exclusive sales item as well as a trick or treat gift. Some are treats and located in the bag out front of their display, others are tricks where the bag is hidden somewhere within their booth. It was great fun to visit, and I am always impressed by the way the region is decorated for the spooky season. Many designers have other offers, some of which are discounted for the duration of the event, which is open until November 1st so you have ample time to explore and visit as many times as you wish.

My first look of the evening is the striking gift from Senzafine called Evanora - ToTL Haunted. It comes in sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. The blending of blue into purple then black is perfect for the night sky, and the bats are a lovely seasonal touch. The high-low hem and flared sleeves also serve to flatter our curves. 

1313 Mockingbird Lane is ready for Halloween with their Burtonesque Jacket/Skirt, a gorgeous combo in black and white with golden trim. Each piece is rigged to fit the Maitreya body, and can be worn together or separately as you will see in the next couple of photos. There is also a HUD included to show/hide the panties that are built into the skirt. I decided the neckline deserved to frame more than just cleavage, LOL, so I added the charming Arachnes Necklace w/Resize gift from Oubliette. It has a family of gemstone spiders crawling around the silvery web, and you can just give it a click if you wish to access the resize scripting.

I kept the 1313 skirt on here but switched tops to the gift from JR Wolf Creations. Their Hallows T Shirt is decorated in several different occult symbols, all in a silvery tone that looks terrific against the black backdrop of the shirt. It is provided in sizing for Alice, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Maitreya Petite, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. To add a touch of color, I went with the treat from CELESTE which is their Spiked Hoop Earrings, although I did it a little differently than one might expect ;) The gift includes a purple pair and a green pair, so I wore one of each to allow you to see both pretty hues. 

The 1313 skirt got a little more use, as I wore it again here with the zOOm - Hunted Sweater. Their gift includes Freya, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, with cropped hem and extra long sleeves to balance against the cowl neck. The contrasting textures coordinate quite nicely, and do have a seasonal feel that I appreciate. I also am appreciating the tasty treat from Petrichor, their :[P]:- Geobeat Cookie [Halloweenies] seen in my left hand. It has a built in hold pose as shown, and the lines of icing remind me of wireframe. The heart shape looks so pretty with the ombre of orange to purple icing, on a dark chocolate cookie.

For my final look tonight I started with the gorgeous gift from Viki called Faith. It features one of my favorite color combinations, purple and black, and has a rich, beautifully embroidered texture. It comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing to fit a wide range of bodies. With the bare shoulders and low neckline, I decided it deserved to show off the equally pretty CHIMAERA - Valentine collar - Rainbow Noir. So many dazzling colors in the heart pendant, I think you will find it goes well with nearly anything you wear it with. I was also intrigued by the gift from Secret Oktober, which is the *SO* Skulls n' Roses Mask I am wearing. It has a resize script built in, so you can adjust it to fit your face just right. I also couldn't resist sharing a closer view of the nails I have been enjoying in all of these images, the treat from DP Koffin Nails called FatPack - Pentacle Moon. There are 6 designs, 3 colors each with a mirrored version, and the fatpack means you get Maitreya, Omega, and Slink appliers. Each has fingers and toes compatibility, so you could apply one design to your fingers and a different choice for your feet. 

Not much to share about my day, as it was fairly quiet other than an update on my grandmother. She was admitted for observation and should be released tomorrow, and it sounds like she is doing pretty well. She had high blood pressure before, and anything heart related is going to be a concern for a stroke survivor I guess, but things sound like they are under control. My guess is that a medication needed to be added or adjusted, and all the testing will point them in the proper direction. She is impressively tough, as we have always known :) I do hope you are all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Trick or Treat Lane

Hiya everyone! Tonight we take a stroll down Trick or Treat Lane, a terrific annual event that has a little something for everyone. There are spooky exclusive offers at great prices, and each display has a "trick" or "treat" waiting as a gift. The treats are when the gift is on top of the hay bales in full view, and the tricks mean you have to peek inside their booth to find the gift instead. Still fairly easy, as the booths are not huge, just have your camera controls ready to peep behind things or up high or down low, etc. :) The tricks and treats are free with no group needed to claim them, and the event is open until the beginning of November. 

My first look is the (BYRNE) Bloody Mary Dress, a one shouldered mini with a touch of tulle on the right hip. It does have a sinisterly dripping stripe spiraled around it, I wonder what we've been up to? The gift includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes.

This sassy outfit is a gift from Les Sucreries de Fairy, simply called Tricks and Treats Halloween gift. It is a single mesh piece in a Maitreya size, with shorts and top joined by a studded strip down the front. I really like this style, and can't wait to add various accessories to have extra fun with it.

This tube top with the ominous image on its front is the gift from zOOm called "Lil Monster". It includes Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes, so it should cover the most popular trio of mesh bodies. I have paired it here with the Delizio jeans in black from the marketplace, one of my favorite freebies on there because of their versatility.

Another seasonal treat is this top from Pink Cream Pie called Kat Tee [Trick or Treat Gift]. It is provided in Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes, in a pale orange with a spiderweb pattern throughout. The black jeans from Delizio go really well with this top too :)

My final look this evening is a closer view of my nails, which are a Trick or Treat gift from Dark Passions and their Koffin Nails division. Their treat bag contains the fatpack of Pumpkin Grunge appliers for Maitreya, Omega, and Slink. Each offers 6 designs which are 3 different jack o'lantern faces in orange on black and the reverse. I am wearing my Slink hands here because I love the ability to change each individual nail, enabling me to show you all 6 designs at once with ease. 

It was a busy, decent day, with a few stops after getting my ingrown toenails taken care of. I treated myself to a certain blended ice cream dessert, which I usually eat in about 3-4 little servings over time. It was a refreshing way to make my day a little better, and such a tiny portion is a reasonable splurge. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
