Entrepreneur Fair

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are exploring a new-to-me event called the Entrepreneur Fair, where you can be introduced to many creators and see lots of new sales offerings. There are also gifts at several of the displays, with no group needed to claim them :) It is a quickie as the fair opened on the 1st and closes on the 9th, so I do suggest you hurry on over and enjoy your visit.


My first gift of the evening I am eager to share is the TERABITHIA --{Mefy's}-- T-Shirt set, which comes in 3 colors with two versions for each (with or without the Terabithia Forever image on the front). Each of these are provided in Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh body sizes. The colors are labeled azul, morado, and rosa, so that would be blue, purple, and pink :) Those are three favorites of mine, and the loose fit cropped style is so casually cute.


I was immediately dazzled when trying on the [CARIBBEAN]Broken Dress for Maitreya Lara & Lara X, and I'm sure you can see why! In addition to the two sizes mentioned in the name, this intricately textured cowl neck minidress includes a HUD with 7 colors and 2 buttons labeled 'specular' and 'height'. I'll admit I have no idea what those mean, lol, but I did notice a slight difference when clicking each of them. We look like we've used squares of a mirror as sequins, almost like a disco ball, which creates a truly stunning appearance.


Next I changed into the charming XHIVHA FASHION CASUAL OUTFIT gift, which is loaded with options :) The cardigan and skirt each fit Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn bodies, and our boots are designed for Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn. The gift also includes the hoops earrings, beret, fashion bag, and BOM panties, gloves, and tattoos not shown here. I sense some mixing and matching in my future with all of these goodies.


I also found a delightful gift at the Vhelvet Store display, called Luxe Flor Rosa Dress. The strapless gown and the flowers that attach to the bodice are each provided in sizing for Freya, Isis, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The flowers can be omitted if you prefer the unadorned look or maybe you have a necklace that they would interfere with, but it looks lovely both ways so it's entirely up to you :) That daring slit on the side is sure to turn heads!


My final look of the evening is the Style by Rafaela 4th of July Gift Mini Dress. Now I know you may be thinking that it's still 4 months away from that date, lol, but personally I enjoy the bold red and blue colors seen here :) Dare I admit that I don't recognize most of the flags on the blue texture up there? I need Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory and his "Fun With Flags" podcast! This gift includes Altamura, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body sizes, as well as a HUD with 3 textures. The third has a white background and more stars, so almost a reverse of the one on the left above. 

How was everyone's weekend? Mine was decent, then windy, then power-outage-y again, then busy. Now I'm feeling like I need a nap or an SL vacation ;) That's a vacation in the confines of SL, not one from SL by the way. One of the amazing things about our virtual world is that we can be anywhere doing just about anything we can possibly imagine, all with the click of a teleport button. I hope you're all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Spring Spectaculum 2024

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I had fun at Wonderland Beach, exploring their Spring Spectaculum 2024 event, and found some free treasure chest prizes to share :) There are a few gifts that are not in the treasure chests, so be sure to check out the buildings and the carts to make sure you find all the offers and goodies you can. They have events here frequently with a great selection of designers, and it's always fun to see what each store offers for the various themes. In this case of course, it's spring and that generally means rebirth, growth, and flora and fauna. What wonders will you find?


First up, we have a bold look from Grumble's treasure chest which is their Wandering Dress. It's no secret that I am a longtime fan of theirs, and peeking at this I'm sure you can't blame me. The slightly sheer tank dress has some winged friends like moths and butterflies in bright colors on a dark background, with circles that could be planets which would make sense for a nighttime feeling. It fits Erika, Freya, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Prima Busty, and Reborn mesh bodies.


I also found a treasure chest that contains this very sweet MESH Hello Spring Dress and Panties by Moonstar prize. The dress is a strapless mini with baby blue ruffles atop the bust and at the hem to match the waistband. The cute girl on the front is saying Hello Spring while feeding pretty birds, and I love the floral crown she is wearing :) We receive eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes as well as a standard fitted version for classic avatars. There are also panties provided in a system/BOM layer and an Omega applier to suit most avatars.


COVETED! has also provided a special treat, their Crystal BoHo dress. Well, it not only includes the dress but also a foulard (neck ribbon or scarf) that each fit Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. The ribbon and dress's ruffles are a sage hue, with a darker almost forest green on the main dress. I'm a fan of both colors and really appreciate this free prize :)


For a more formal look, please take a peek in the Vhelvet Shop display (a small store along the outer edges of the event area) for a gift box which holds their Flor Rosa Dress. Isn't it gorgeous? The dress and floral trim at the bust are separate pieces, each in sizes for Freya, Isis, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. The dramatic left side slit goes all the way up to the hip for a stunning look, and you can easily wear this without the flowers if you prefer. I accidentally took off the dress first and left only the flowers, lol, I guess the girls wanted to celebrate spring too ;) But no, no photos of that oopsie. 


My final look of the evening is a nod to something we see more of this season, the sun 🌞. It's our DANI Sunshine Set and heels prize, free from their treasure chest, and the vibrant color really made me smile. The shorts set with jacket is a single piece we wear all at once, in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing. The heels fit Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink feet. There's a little bonus included as well that I wasn't able to show you due to time constraints...a set of jewelry is included :) The topaz and diamond jewelry set is boxed up separately, and unfortunately all the pieces defaulted to my right hand so it would have taken my slow self aaaaages to get them all adjusted properly to share. It includes a necklace, earrings, and bracelet with the yellow variety of topaz mixed with diamonds for a lovely look and great choice to pair with this outfit.

Whew, who decided to sprinkle all the chaos all over my evening? Actually I know the answer to that, and it was not me this time ;) I am trying to make plans for the rest of the week, and the person with whom I am making the plans is trying to alter them in ways I am uncomfortable with. It's not really helping if you make things worse. Otherwise I'm watching hockey playoffs (my team is not in them this year) and generally preparing to head into SL later for a break from RL. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
