Redeux Halloween Sales

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post is full of treats from the Redeux Halloween Sales 2025 event, where in addition to wonderful timely sales offerings you can also find free group gifts. Just join their Redeux VIP group (free to join) and click all the pumpkins you see that are wrapped with a black ribbon. I do recall one that was just the word GIFT on a wall, and another might have been in a flat box like a sign in the front of the display, but mostly they're in the pumpkins :) This is the seventh year of this fun event, and it's decorated just as spookily as I'd remembered, so come visit and get some frighteningly good gifts and bargains!

First up, I am sharing the [Witch In A Box] Brielle Outfit gift that captured my attention with the slightly raised shirt and fluttery short skirt. The top, skirt, and separate belt are all provided in sizing for Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, along with a HUD that offers 3 colors each for top and skirt/belt. The skirt is a solid texture, and the shirt has has a subtle print of a ouija board on it that is both timely and brand-appropriate ;)

This sexy number is the [UNC] Patty Outfit - Halloween gift from Uncontrollably Fashion. Its teeny tube top and fluttery skirt are each provided in fitmesh standard sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body versions. There's also a HUD for the top with 6 sayings, including Hocus Pocus and BOO! as I'm showing on the left and right, respectively. Now I am wearing my Legacy body and you may notice that is not listed in the sizes...I tried on several others out of curiosity and found suitable fits :) It never hurts to try, and I would have changed bodies really quickly if nothing worked out.

Next we've got a combo of gifts that is so sizzling hot that I had to bust out the modesty flowers in Photoshop ;) That would be because our Faida - Angie Halloween is a sheer wisp of cobwebs formed into a sultry tank top with pretty ruffle on the neckline. There are sizes for Cinnamon & Chai, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Maitreya, Maitreya Flat Chest, Slink Hourglass, and Tonic Minim mesh bodies included. It pairs remarkably well with the sassy *PF::Halloween2025 Skirt from Pearl Fashion, with its built in thong panty and studded belt. The fabric has an orange pattern that looks like carved pumpkins (but my eyesight is garbage lately so please forgive if I'm wrong) and the back of the hem is lifted to show off some cheek. We receive sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Love Aphrodite, Love Momma, Maitreya, Peach, Reborn, Juicy Rolls, and Jelly Belly mesh bodies. 

Spells&Charms is here to prove that Halloween can be represented in pastel tones too, with their gorgeous gift called {S&C} Mystic Witch Dress. The satiny slip dress is designed for Erika, Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies, and we also get a HUD with 6 dreamy textures. I did notice in trying them all out that one is not matching the HUD and is actually a sheer solid color, lol, but the rest are like you see above with clouds, stars, and the occasional crescent moon shape peeking through the wash of pastels. I'm sure you can tell how much I love this ♥.

Do you need some long stiletto nails with spooky skulls for this time of year? If you just nodded, then be sure to grab our Fatal Fashion gift! Their FF Original - Nail_NH - 07 set of mesh nails is a terrific and versatile addition to any Halloween outfit, thanks to the 10 colors we get to choose per set of nails (meaning both thumbs, both index fingers, etc.) via HUD. The nails themselves will fit Gen X, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Nhumana, and Reborn mesh hands. All you have to do is use the body's HUD to hide its built in nails, and add the correct size from this folder. Then you get to play with the HUD and create the color combo of your dreams :) No messy polish, no curing the gel under lamps for ages, and no stinky acetone to remove them...my favorite aspect would be no smearing if you dare touch anything while traditional polish takes its sweet time drying solidly. 

Today was a challenging one, thanks to a stubborn housemate and a whopping dose of anxiety in the car. We went out much later than planned, and I was a shaky mess by the time we arrived at our destination. I did well in the store itself, distracting myself with looking at all the things, but the way home turned out to be even more challenging than the way there because it was dark. Somehow the darkness really makes me more scared to be in a car, and I'm not sure why other than my poor nighttime vision because I'm getting older. The timing was bad, but I need to focus on the fact that I got further than I have in like 3 years and survived :) I will never be one of those people who loves being in a car, going for a random ride, but that's okay and I don't need to be. Tomorrow is dinner at my parents', always a pleasant way to spend an evening. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Synergy Halloween Sales

 Hiya everyone! Tonight you won't believe it but I found out about another event with group gifts aplenty, so I visited immediately to share as quickly as possible. It is the Halloween Sales 2023 event from Synergy, and they're open until the 2nd of November (opened a week ago, I didn't find out until today) so we do have a few days left to stop by and do some shopping. The Synergy Shoppers group is free to join, and with the tag active you can click the carved pumpkins at each display that are tied with a black ribbon and bow to claim your free gifts. I apologize for the short notice, something I try not to do but sometimes as a holiday draws closer the smaller timeframe events crop up and I don't want to ignore them either in case your personal outfit is waiting there for you.

My first look is the playful Raven Sky Witch by COVETED! gift. Its dress fits Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies, and the matching witch hat is unrigged so we can adjust it if needed. Both have a terrific pattern of ravens or crows flying against a cloudy background with forks of lightning. I guess they could be tree branches instead, but I thought clouds - storms - lightning ;) The dress is so sexy with bared sides and a daring slit on the left side.

Another flirty frock you can claim as a free gift here is this lovely :: C.K Patty Alicinha Gift :: . The slender shoulder straps weave their way down to the back to lace up a very bare opening, cut low enough to flash a little bit of bum cleavage. There are sizes for Alice, Altamura, eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with a 10 texture HUD so we can change things up at will. While the textures contain orange and/or shades of grey, that doesn't mean they are specific to Halloween and I don't feel they are limited to it at all :)

- Kinky Pinky - is offering their stunning Rosita Dress (fatpack) as a generous gift for all Synergy group members who visit their display. It has a high waist accentuated by a black belt, and the top portion changes color by clicking your choice of 6 buttons on the included HUD. There is a cross on the back similar to the belt that also contrasts the bodice colors beautifully, and the black scalloped lace on the hem is another terrific detail. We receive Freya, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body sizing.

*wolf whistle* This hot little number is our Pumpkin Mood Bodysuit & Bolero gift from zOOm. The skimpy bodysuit and fun bolero with ruffly sleeves each fit Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Reborn Waifu mesh bodies. The front says "Current Mood" above and below a jack o'lantern, which made me smile, and the dramatic cut that shows off pretty much our entire booty will make whoever you show this off to smile too ;)

For my final look of the evening, I slipped into the [UNC] Patty Outfit - Halloween treat from Uncontrollably. The teeny tube top and flared miniskirt are each provided in fitmesh standard sizes as well as eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizes. There's also a HUD for the top with 6 text choices - Hocus Pocus (left above), Bad Witch, Boo! (right), Spooky, Little Witch, or Trick or Treat. The spiderwebs on the skirt have a seasonal flavor too, but I am not the type to watch the clock and decide that as soon as midnight rolls around and the day ends, that a holiday must too :) I'll tend to wear themed fashions for a few days to a week after if my mood dictates, and would never judge anyone else for going even longer. Heck, wear Christmas sweaters in May, I won't bat an eye!

It was a decent weekend here, and I'm still watching randomly recorded Halloween type movies but I stick to the kids' movies to avoid gore or really disturbing stuff. That means I'm watching things like Casper, Ghostbusters, Hocus Pocus, and Lemony Snicket among others :) I get to have the holiday experience without the anxiety or nightmares, and if I recorded enough I can keep it going into November a bit. I hope you're all having a delightful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

REDEUX Event Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we have a very limited time event to visit, the Black Friday & Cyber Monday by REDEUX sales event. There are 4 little buildings with lots of great designers set up in each, with discounted offers and even a gift for the Synergy group which is free to join. That is what I'm sharing tonight, a sampling of the many generous gifts we can find in cardboard boxes at each display :) The event is only open until noon SL time on the 2nd of December, so we have a few days of shopping and free treats remaining.

My first look is one of two gifts from Faida, their Tammy strippable red. This dress comes in sizes for Legacy and Maitreya mesh bodies, with a HUD that has nice (fully clothed), sexy (one bared breast), and naughty (bare breast and raised hem) settings. I am wearing the nice on the left, and the naughty to the right, but I realized that the skirt was lifted high enough to reveal a bit more than I anticipated LOL, so I plopped a white heart on the picture in photoshop. That is not part of the dress at all, just a little editing for modesty on my part. The deep crimson shade is a real show stopper too!

Our other gift from Faida is this lovely Pearl candy dress, a satiny long sleeved beauty with lace inserts and hem. It also fits Legacy and Maitreya mesh bodies, and is very flattering with that ever so slightly sheer lace and the lilac color of the satin.

I also claimed a thoughtful gift from **Sexy Princess** which is calledLeticia Pink. It consists of the top and skirt each in a standard fitted size as well as eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes. The strapless top and the skirt hem are each adorned with a ruffle that has a fun floral pattern to go with the soft pink color. 

Next I changed into the Patty Top - Pink from Uncontrollably. This slender tube top is provided in standard mesh sizes along with eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body versions. There is also a HUD included with 10 different word choices, like the "taken" and "awkward" I've displayed here. That vibrant hot pink color looks wonderful against the black text and trim! I am wearing my favorite Delizio jeans here too, the black pair from their free fatpack on the marketplace. There are system/BOM layers and appliers for Maitreya and Omega in several denim shades.

Finally we have the AtaMe - TeaseMe Flower Skulls Latex dress, a gift that absolutely lives up to that teasing part in the name ;) It looks fairly conservatively styled from the front, then we turn around and see the revealing back view complete with full moon. It comes in Hourglass, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Flat sizes. The skulls wearing floral crowns gave me a Goth or Day of the Dead vibe, like darkly festive. Not my usual style, but I like it!

Is anyone else coming to the startling realization that there are only a few weekends left in 2022? I'm pondering where on earth the time has gone, since it really seems to be flying by. That said, I did enjoy my weekend and am gearing up for what promises to be a very busy December both RL and SL. Advent calendars are coming, and plenty of holiday themed events and hunts, so I expect to have all sorts of treats to share :) I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Limited Time Treats

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we have a short window of time remaining to visit an event I just found out about, the 6th Black Friday & Cyber Monday Sale by Synergy Shopping. Their free group is named Synergy and is the tag you will need to claim several terrific group gifts, a handful of which I am pleased to share tonight. Now the sales event wraps up on the 2nd so we have until Thursday night to stop by and take advantage of deep discounts and of course the group gifts. Those can be found in cardboard boxes with the event's logo on them, at many of the store's displays. I hope you are ready for the Christmas shopping season, because it is ready for us ;)

My first look comes from the Amataria group gift, which includes the fluttery top and cozy pants seen above. Each comes in sizes for Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. We go from a pale shade of blue for the top, to a deep navy for the pants so sticking with one color family to great effect. The gift includes a few other little surprises, so enjoy!

Next I slipped into the SLC MGSN Xmas Gifts TRAIN lingerie, which is adorned with snowflakes and topped with a festive hat. The bra and itty bitty miniskirt are each provided in standard mesh sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body versions. The hat and matching boots each have a resize script built in so they can be adjusted, and the lingerie (panties, garter belt, lace-trimmed stockings) are provided in system/BOM layers. The aqua color has an icy cool feeling with the snowy pattern, but this outfit is sure to help you heat things up!

Another flirtatious gift is the Mia Red dress from Faida. It includes two versions (bows on the left above, wool on the right) that fit the Maitreya mesh body, and each texture has a HUD with 3 styling options. I am wearing it as Good on the left, then Naughty on the right with the back of the skirt partly lifted. There is also a Cheeky option which raises the skirt even further. It makes me envision playfully dancing for someone and using the HUD to enact a little striptease :)

Sometimes the best way to accessorize one gift is with another gift. The outfit is our ABSEN GIFT-7, a top and skirt in sizes for Altamura, eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Star, TMP, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Tonic Minim bodies. The open weave knit texture looks very pretty in shades of coral, and the flash of midriff is a great touch. Speaking of great touches, my choker and arm bands are the Organic Jewelry Set Gold from AtaMe. I really liked the idea of pairing open weave jewelry with clothing of the same nature, and felt that the gold accentuated the color of the outfit.

My final look this evening is a charming shirtdress from Uncontrollably called [UNC] Charlotte Dress - Red. It is one of several gifts there, as there are male and female giftboxes that each contained more than one goodie. There is a plaid skirt in addition to this lovely knee-length dress, which comes in a fitted version for classic avatars along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes. There is also a pair of unrigged boots included, but they both attached to my right hand instead of my feet so I will have to adjust them at another time. I was running late enough as it is ;) They are above the knee and black to match the built in belt of our dress. 

It was a busy day, with a chiropractor appointment and several errands to run while out and about. I even wound up at the location where the Saturday farmers market is held to pick up stuff for myself and my parents, which felt really weird to visit during the week. It is a perfect meeting point though, especially when the food we picked up is created in the onsite kitchens there. I have on a 70s music tv station that has played 2 Christmas songs tonight, so they are trying to make sure we are getting in the holiday spirit I suppose :) I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Halloween Sales Event

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are headed to the Halloween Sales 2021 event, organized by 35L Sundays. Their free group is Synergy Shopping, and if you join that you can claim a few dozen wonderful gifts while you visit. We get to save lots of money on the sales items and then receive free treats, so it was at the top of my to-do list :) The area is decorated perfectly for this spooky time of year, so you might find yourself shivering with fear and delight! We can claim the group gifts by clicking the carved pumpkin wrapped in a black ribbon at each display.

My first look of the evening is the .:S&B:. Dress Dayna black, a little black dress that is far from basic. It is provided in 3 standard and 3 fitmesh sizes (S, M, L each) for classic avatars, as well as sizing for Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh bodies. This pumpkin needs us to right click and pay $1L which is immediately refunded while the gift is delivered. A couple of others are like this, but most distribute a folder with your gift inside just by clicking them. My guess is that the payment registers the gift in their vendor system, so you will be able to get it redelivered if necessary in the future.

Uncontrollably has two pumpkins at their display that each distributes a gift, and I am enjoying their GIFT *UNC - GIRLS* Rebel Romper - Sugar Skull here. It comes in standard mesh sizes along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions, with a 4 color HUD. All of the colors have a solid black top and the same sugar skull image embossed on the front, very pretty!

Another terrific choice for Halloween is our gift from Paper.Sparrow called Plaid Bats Bonnie Outfit. Its cropped sweater and extra short shorts are each included in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizes. The knit texture is bewitchingly batty ;)

Next I slipped into the gorgeous .Viki. Ariel Dress which is their group gift for the event. This full length gown with small train and intricate scales texture comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. There is also a HUD with 5 choices, each a stunning ombre with multiple vibrant colors. I feel like a glamorous mermaid in this beauty!

My final look this evening combines two gifts that I think work really well together. The dress is the Batty Back Straps Mini Dress by COVETED! which comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. The bats are perfect for the season, as are the orange and black color combination. I really like the unique straps in the back that lead to the side cutouts for fun flashes of skin. Our gift from On A Lark is the lovely *OAL* Rune Necklace ~ Home which I am wearing in black, although it comes in male and female versions each in brown and black. The double stranded necklace is a wonderful style, and the accent beads really draw attention to the rune pendant. 

It was a quiet day, which is not really a bad thing, it just means I don't have much to say about it :) I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Halloween Sales Event Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have several free gifts to share from the Halloween Sales 2020 event, but don't worry because you have a few more days to visit :) It is open until the 4th of November, and each participating designer is offering a free gift (no group needed) inside a carved pumpkin that is wrapped with a black ribbon. Some gifts are Halloween themed while others are more general, so it is not a problem if you have not visited yet and do not get there until after the holiday itself. I got the news relatively late myself of the event's opening, but am still very happy that I stopped by. There are plenty of reasons, as you are about to see from a random sampling.

My first look is the Lilith in Fitmesh for Classic + TMP + Maitreya by COVETED!. This shapely gown has built in wings and comes in the 3 sizes mentioned in its name. The horns I am wearing are an adjustable addition with a built in resize script. I used my Maitreya body's HUD to hide much of the body, as the figure hugging style seemed to hug my figure a bit too much ;) This is a great look for Halloween, but can also be used for costume parties or Gothic evening wear any time of year. 

Turn up the flirt quotient with this gift from *ASIA* called ELEONOR black. It starts with the long gown with double slits with lace on the front panel and a wedge in the rear, with bodice held in place by straps in back and front, in sizes for Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. You will also find the matching shoes included, strappy sandals sized for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink High feet. such a tantalizing look!

Our gift from On A Lark is this charming *OAL* Meryl ~ Autumn halter style dress. It comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, with earth tones that are terrific for this season, and you know I appreciate any pattern with birds :)

This playful costume is the .::Believe::. Devil Set, yours for free just by clicking the pumpkin at their display. It includes the dress in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, as well as the horns, gold necklace, and even the pitchfork I am holding. If you are feeling a bit devilish, perhaps this is the gift for you.

My final look of the evening is our female gift from Uncontrollably, called [UNC] Rebel Romper - Sugar Skull 4 Colors HUD. I did specify female because there is also a male gift in that same pumpkin :) The romper comes in standard mesh sizes along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. As the name suggests, there is also a HUD with 4 colors to choose from for the bottom of the romper, all with the same image on its front. Sugar skulls are such beautiful, artistic creations and I admire all the fine details.

Hooray for the weekend! :) I am really glad it's here, and I'm looking forward to the farmers market tomorrow which will have all sorts of tasty goodies. One of the ways they are celebrating Halloween there is to give a special treat to all dogs that are in costumes, which I cannot wait to see. As long as they don't mind wearing the outfits, it will be wonderful to see them enjoying the somewhat chilly but sunny day. Even though I don't have a dog myself, I love them and am grateful for a chance to watch them having fun. Two people at the market bake dog treats, so I have no idea which one is providing these treats or if maybe they both are giving them to the other vendors to distribute. One makes exclusively dog treats, the other is a baker for humans who just recently added dog biscuits to her lineup. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Let's Get Deals

Hiya everyone! Tonight we are going to explore the 35L Sunday event called "It's May! Let's Get Deals!". There are many participating designers who offer special discounted selections here, and if you are in the 35L Sunday VIP group (free to join) you can claim gifts which are inside black gift boxes tied with red ribbon and bow. They event is open until the end of the month, so you have over a week to stop by and get some deals and treats. 

My first look starts with the group gift from Uncontrollably called Lylla Dress - LadyBug. It includes sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and a standard version. There is also a HUD with 4 textures for the dress and 3 colors for the belt. I have a soft spot for ladybugs because a dear friend used to call me ladybug as a nickname :) The lovely necklace I am wearing here is the gift from VENGE, their Original Mesh Fairy Crystal Necklace. When you claim this gift, you will receive the non-rigged necklace plus 3 HUDs - copper, gold, and silver - each with 6 texture choices for the crystal. So versatile!

Anny's Fashion is offering a group gift too, their [AF] Gene PickledCucumber Elegant Jumpsuit. It is provided in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine sizing, with a sumptuous velvety texture and mostly bare back. The lace embroidery on the top is such a pretty look, and the style is flattering to my curves.

Look out, hot stuff! This is the {AP}Baby Bodysuit gift from Angel Pink, that consists of daringly sheer bodysuit and low slung denim shorts each in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizing. There is also a HUD for the bodysuit with 3 textures, the two shown above and a subtle floral print. The tiny shorts look great trimmed with lace, and I would happily layer them atop any bodysuit or bikini.

My final look of the evening is another pairing of two gifts, which I do enjoy doing :) The top is from ZFG and is called Debbie Pyramid, since it reads "Caffeine is the foundation of my food pyramid" across the front. Preach! The gift is provided in sizes for Freya, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, and Maitreya bodies, all with that single bared shoulder for a little flirtatiousness. The jeans are from Loordes of London, The Garden Co-Op-#3, in standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. The brown belt is attached, and there are matching brown heart patches on the front and the back. I appreciate the casually cuffed style and the slight distressed spots too.

It was a calm day in preparation for a couple of busy ones, with dinner at my parents' tomorrow evening and then picking up farmers market purchases Saturday. It is reassuring to have these tiny consistent habits from before things went so haywire in the world, since I know they will be part of my new normal whatever that turns out to be. I feel the same way about blogging and SL in general, finding them reliable and comforting. In a few hours my KittyCats! kitten will be full grown at 7 days old, so I am excited to snuggle with him later :) I hope you're all having a safe and pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Welcome Spring Event

Hiya everyone! Tonight we celebrate the beginning of spring by visiting the Welcome Spring event by the good folks who bring us 35L Sunday Sales. Their 35L VIP group is free to join, and there are group gifts at every display in addition to the $35L deals and other deeply discounted selections. Our gifts are in black boxes with deep reddish-pink ribbons and bows, just give them each a click with your 35L group tag active to claim. It is nearly Sunday, so we would normally be visiting all these stores individually to find such great bargains (and I'm pretty sure you still can) but now we get to do some one-stop shopping with bonus treats.

First we see the generous gift from Applique` Chic, their AC: Spring Floret All Colors. Claim this gift and you will receive the Floret Dress and matching Floret Wedges, each in Blue, Green, Orange (seen on the right above), Pink, and Purple (on the left). The dresses each come in standard mesh sizes plus versions for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies, while the wrapped sandals with bold wedge heels are created for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink High feet. 

Next we take a peek at the Luxury Fashion gift, [LF] Kyara Lingerie which is a one piece bodysuit with lots of intricate lace. The gift includes sizing for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. The solid sections cover just enough, but the sheer parts reveal plenty :)

If you wear the ever-popular Maitreya body, then the gift from Faida will fit you like a glove! It is their Sadie V2 Cold dress, with plunging V neckline and very short skirt, balanced by long 3/4 length sleeves. The fun zigzag stripes really add a lot of visual interest too :)

You deserve to look pretty in pink too, so be sure to claim the Karly Babydoll Dress - Soft Pink gift from *Uncontrollably*. It comes in a standard size for classic avatars as well as Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body versions, all with a HUD offering 4 texture choices. There is a solid pink and another with tiny polka dots in addition to the two shown above, all in that same charming shade.

For my final look of the evening, I selected a more formal treat from among the many group gifts. This is Dianna in Black & Red by COVETED!, a long formal gown with train that has one long sleeve and one bare arm/shoulder. The pleated black material is gathered by a pretty crimson belt, really accentuating the waist and the style in general. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies.

It was a fairly interesting day, especially since I actually left the house ;) The farmers market I usually go to on Saturdays was reopened as a curbside pickup situation, so you texted each person with your order (I preordered yesterday) and they brought it out to your car. There were a few other cars when I was there, and we had a small chat with the owner who explained that everyone working there is trained and certified in food safety and sanitary practices, so they feel confident in providing this service so people can still purchase vital food. One woman who usually sells handmade candles was helping other vendors, but she seemed really scared to get close to any cars or touch the money, understandable and I felt bad for her. She wasn't wearing gloves but a few other vendors were, just to hand over packages and take money, but she wouldn't have a supply on hand (sorry, accidental pun) because of not usually handling food. They will stay open this way each Saturday until it is safe to reopen normally, as they have been deemed essential food services by the state. I think I managed to get sunburn on my face, sheesh it is not easy being this pale...the fresh air and sunshine felt so good though! I just realized I am sitting here smiling just thinking about it. In these uncertain times, we need to grasp any reason to smile and try to stay positive, a challenge but a worthy one. I hope you're all having a lovely weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Midwinter Fair

Hiya everyone! I found out earlier about an event that I had not yet visited, The Midwinter Fair, and rushed over to see what I'd been missing. This is their 7th round, and has an impressive variety of designers taking part. Nearly all of them have blue bags at their displays that contain gifts for us, no group needed, just give them each a click to receive mementos of your visit. The event only lasts until the 17th, so I do suggest you plan your trip there very soon. Tonight I am showing you just a small sampling of those many gifts that await you there.

My first look is a flowing dress in sweet pastels from Uncontrollably Fashion called [UNC] Blythe Sweater Dress - Soft Colors 4 HUD. The dress itself comes in standard mesh sizes, and there is (as the name mentions) a HUD with 4 color choices included, two of which are shown above. I like the loose fit and the subtle stripes, and feel this would look just as pretty over a pair of tights or jeans as it does as a dress.

This gift is a very revealing outfit from Sinfully Sweet called *SS* Duck This. It consists of the artfully tied top and teeny micro mini skirt each in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique, in palest pink. Such a flirty set, just be sure not to wear it somewhere G-rated as it is definitely an adult look :)

Applique` Chic is offering this elegant December Pea Coat Dress Frost as their event gift for the ladies (yes, that distinction does mean there is one for the gentlemen as well) and I am enamored with the tweed print highlighted by the double row of buttons. Inside this gift you will find standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, eBody, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. Speaking of enamored, I must admit to being completely smitten with my two new friends from Titans! In the main image I am hanging out with the PomPom beanie Birdie on my shoulder, and in the inset you can see their Winter Trapper Birdie who is also included in this fun gift. Both sit on the right shoulder and blink occasionally, and the pink cutie's hat does have two pompoms on it that unfortunately are blending with my tree background a bit. They are both adorable and I am pleased to add them to my collection of SL pets and companions.

The event gift from BouBouKi will add a stunning touch of pink and gold to your wardrobe. It is called Gaby Dress Pink and comes in sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. The high slit up to the left hip is as alluring as the deep neckline, while the golden collar and belt have a beautiful shine to them that catches the eye. 

One final look for the evening, this is our gift from Beastly Things called *BT* sa tarna farm girl casmisk. It comes in Maitreya and Slink versions, with a texture reminiscent of burlap and two pockets on the front. It looks to be ideal for roleplay, as well as casual wear.

It was a decent day and a busy evening, so now I am spending my nighttime hours catching up on various things. I think my week will be relatively peaceful, but there will be more snow so that makes it even more of a good thing not to have too many plans. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
