The Saturday Sale Goodies

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're taking a look at several more gifts from TSS Party Extravaganza, which is The Saturday Sale's 11th anniversary celebration. They are all free for the taking, either set for sale for $0L or click the box to claim, with a few being pay $1L and receive an instant refund while the gift is delivered to you. There are black boxes and pinstripe pink ones, with a few designers being kind enough to offer a gift inside each :) We all know by now how awesome the weekly sales offerings are at these participating stores, and it's so fun to see what's new each round. I feel like this is one of the earliest weekly sales events, and I'm impressed with their longevity and wish them many more years of bringing us the best of SL, affordably!

First up, I've just got to share the [aprelle] anya outfit gift since spooky season is just about here :) The tank top, cardigan, and shorts are all provided in Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Peach, Reborn, Juicy Boobs, and Waifu mesh body sizing. The solid pale orange top looks great with the pattern on the cardigan and shorts, which reminds me of the jack o lantern pails we used to carry for Halloween when I was a kid :) They even have bows on their handles, so cute!

Bipolar is offering a terrific gift called Iris Set - Black. We receive sizes for Legacy, Nerido, Perky, Maitreya, Reborn, and Juicy Boobs mesh bodies each of the top and panties, with HUDs to customize the look. The top's HUD has 2 metals and 15 textures for the details (trim) both solid and a few subtle patterns, while the panty HUD offers the same 15 details textures. As you can see from the rear view, the panties are actually a high cut thong. I really love the heart shaped clasps on the top's straps, so I am very tempted to pair the top with some pants for chilly weather outerwear.

Next we have the charming .:Le Moon:. Mina Set gift, a pairing of tank top and mini skirt with HUDs to adjust the colors. There are sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, and 3 HUDs - top and skirt HUDs with 10 colors apiece, and a metals HUD with 2 choices for the chains in the skirt slit. The skirt is distinctively different than other similar versions of this outfit I've seen, as it is much shorter and sheer due to the intricate cutout pattern. 

This gorgeous dress is our Crypt Keepers // No. 19 // Maggy Silk Dress gift, and I cannot wait to wear it somewhere fun this weekend :) We receive Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn mesh body sizes, all with that great single sleeved style that has a bare midriff and dramatic diagonal hemline. Now I just need some emerald earrings and either matching or neutral shoes and I'm ready for the weekend.

My final look of the evening is the UC Summapaty dress white gift from United Colors. The gift consists of the strapless dress and underwear, each in sizing for Legacy, Perky, Perky Petite, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, plus two HUDs. The one for the dress has buttons to turn the sheerness on and off and the materials on/off, then the underwear HUD has tabs for panty and edges each with 12 textures which are a mix of solid colors and floral prints. I kept the dress sheer on both sides above to show you the panties a little better, lol, but I'm sure you can imagine the dress in its solid opaque state :) 

Well, the weekend here looks to be stormy off and on because of Helene, which doesn't change my plans very much since I am usually home on Saturdays and have therapy Sunday which is either in my dining room or in the car. Dinner was nice, we celebrated my dad's birthday a few days belatedly :) I almost choked laughing when my mom dryly announced that she didn't have 81 candles for his cake, as usually that is more his sense of humor than her bubbly nature. I'm definitely a mix of both personalities, with some oddities all of my own. I hope you all have a safe and pleasant weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Uber Treats

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more UBER Event gifts to share, and as I explained in my prior post they are all located at the designers' mainstores instead of at the event itself. This means we are visiting dozens of locations to find generous free treats, most of which do not require a specific group tag, and mostly found inside a tan Uber giftbox with yellow-gold ribbon and bow. Our first stop is the event to gather the landmarks from signs or giftboxes at their displays, then we head out to all the wonderful stores :)

My first look this evening starts with the Mimikri gift called Amalfi Cotton Batiste Dress cruise. This gift consists of the slightly sheer dress in Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes, with panties to fit both Legacy and Maitreya bodies. The pretty blue shade matches some of the beading of the Meva Allegra Set, their beautiful jewelry gift for us. The necklace has many strands of varied lengths for an impressive look, with a pendant that perfectly matches the included earrings. What will you pair them with?

Time for sex appeal! This top is the Lua / FATPACK gift from Bombshell, a daring bra in sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. There is also a HUD with 13 colors each for the gems and the metals, so can customize the look of your jeweled bra to suit your mood or favorites. Then I added the .Safira. Dolly Panties Blush, a gift we can find on the wall to the right from the main entrance. I mention that because it is one of the rare ones not in the Uber gift box, still entirely free :) These playful panties fit Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies, in a lovely shade of pink with a big bow on the back. I know you can't see it in this photo, but please take a peek below...

The blush color of the panties gently brings out the floral pattern in our OSMIA - Tie Neck Crop Top gift. I am a huge fan of halter styles and crossed straps, and the cropped length is just right for late summer into fall. This gift is provided in Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes. 

Fake Society has a provocative and generous gift for us, their Vanya Dress / Fatpack. There are 14 terrific colors (black, blue, cobalt, forest, grey, lime, nude, orange, pink, red, rose, rouge, white, yellow) each in Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn body sizing. I'm wearing the forest color on the left above, with rose on the right. This strappy style has plenty of peekaboo openings while covering the essentials. 

We wrap up the evening in shiny crimson, thanks to United Colors and their UC_Jenifer_outfit_red gift. The top and shorts each fit Legacy, Perky, Perky Petite, Maitreya, Maitreya Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, and there is a handy HUD for each piece offering 12 colors for the laces and 5 metals for the grommets and waistband snap. The two HUDs allows us to pick different choices for each as I did on the right. 

This is a week of flexibility for me, as I've had several plans changing and I wouldn't be surprised if there are more switches in the offing. For now I have a blood draw tomorrow but I do not need to fast for it, so it isn't really a big deal. The new month is almost here, so I will be researching and trying to see what to expect for September in SL :) Event rounds, hunts, sales...there is always something happening somewhere in the grid that will catch my attention, and I will gladly share what I find. Meanwhile I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Shop and Hop is Gleaming

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am delighted to tell you about the Valentine's Shop and Hop event, where you will find over 80 designers in 4 romantically designed sims who are all offering discounted merchandise along with free gifts. Tonight I will be showing you some gifts found on the Gleaming sim, as I personally just find it simpler to sort them by sim and show you one at a time so you know exactly which landmark to follow. I am mostly focused on fashion, but there was a sweet companion that caught my eye too :) The event just opened yesterday and runs until the 23rd of February.

My first look is the [Aleutia] Eileen Dress (Maitreya) Special Valentine's Edition, a sweet mini with fluttery skirt and pretty hearts adorning it. As the name implies, it is sized for the Maitreya body, and will look nice with your favorite shoes, perhaps white or pink? 

Next we have a beautiful gift from Gabrielle Hamelin, their {GH} Spring Bliss Sequins Gift. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, and Hourglass, with a HUD to adjust colors for the materials. The HUD gave me an error message when I added it, but I saw mentioned in many groups (and on plurk, etc.) that SL was being weird with scripts this morning so I would guess that was the reason. I didn't necessarily need the HUD since I like the way this looks just as it is :)

Does the romance of the upcoming holiday make you feel a little bit sassy? If so, this gift from Faida should be perfect for you :) It is called It's Not Me, and comes in a Maitreya mesh body size in a soft pink shade. The front reads "It's NOT ME it's you" with the NOT ME across a darker pink ribbon, and there are a few small hearts on the design too. The cropped style with short sleeves add to the sass too, while the pastel color keeps it from being overly edgy.

United Colors has a pretty dress for us, their UC_Cupid_dress_red. It is provided in Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing, with a handy HUD to make this extra sexy. You can choose from 7 colors for the top and bottom sections in the middle (the main dress stays that pretty red) with options to make them sheer and to turn materials off or on. You can even hide those triangles in the middle, top or bottom or rear (the back is designed like the front with a wedge shaped panel) and turn the collar on or off. That is a lot of variety!!

For my final look of the evening, I added a friendly little companion, the gift from KittyCatS! called I LOVE YOU! Angel 2020. It flies around chasing the pink heart that says I love you, and one flank reads "I love you" as you can see above while the other has a heart and arrow on it. There are plenty of great details to appreciate here, and I think you will enjoy seeing him/her in person when you claim this thoughtful gift.

It was a pretty good day here, with a nice visit to my parents' for dinner where we looked through some old pictures and had some laughs. It was a stroll down memory lane for sure :) I have a busy Saturday planned as usual, and I am looking forward to it since I'll get to see some awesome people and pick up tasty treats. I hope you all have a beautiful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
