Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some more hunt prizes to show you from The Loving Kind Hunt 2, a free gridwide hunt whose hunt objects are color-coded hearts to indicate which prizes are inside (red = female, blue = male, yellow = unisex or male and female in the same hidden heart). Their blog is helpful for providing hints and the landmarks to guide you from stop to stop, so you will need that open if you participate in the hunting which you can do for the entire month of February. The prizes are a generous mix of clothing, accessories, and plenty of home decor, many with a Valentine theme so do expect to find lots of hearts and the color red.
My first look starts with the alluring CuCu! Pencil Slit Skirt w Strap Top, our prize found on the Marketplace in the CuCu shop. I am linking the whole shop in the credits rather than the specific prize to 'look' for in there, it is a hunt after all :) That is how the website presented it and I am following their lead. This gorgeous dress comes in 8 fitmesh sizes including Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink versions, and there is even a diamond hearts emitter included but not shown. The terrific bracelets are the prizes you can find at Angel DELUXE who have a blue and a red heart hidden in their store, and in a touching nod to Game of Thrones (Daenerys and Khal Drogo's love story) the female prize is the Moon of my Life HER bracelet. The mens' version is My Sun and Stars HIS, and both bracelets contain resize scripts to allow you to adjust their mesh size very easily. I will always be moved by the words they used for each other, so meaningful.
Here I am feeling quite elegant in the prize from Xtasya, another Marketplace store who has a free gift awaiting those who visit. It is called Queen of Hearts Gown, and comes in plenty of fitted mesh sizes: standard, Belleza, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP. The bright blue belt is attached, and highlights the heart on the bodice nicely. I decided to accessorize this look with the beautiful prize from The Muses, their Polynesia Jewelry which includes earrings and necklace each in gold and silver versions. The different metals also have different accent colors as you can see in the inset, equally striking so let your outfit guide your decision or simply what mood you may be in.
Sweet Peach has this lovely gown hiding in the heart in their store, the Linda Gown in Deep Red. I find this color to be very flattering with auburn hair rather than clashing as some more orange tones of red can do. This comes in standard mesh sizes along with a wide array for mesh bodies: Belleza Freya, Belleza Isis, Belleza Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, and TMP.
One last look tonight, this is our prize from Baci and is called lu-retro girl. It comes in system layers along with an Omega applier, and the vintage floral texture certainly suits the name. The bright red really pops against the soft flowers, and will look particularly lovely if you go somewhere tropical in SL.
Such a busy weekend, I hope you all enjoyed yours! I watched the Puppy Bowl because football isn't really an interest of mine, and well the puppies are adorable and will all find wonderful new homes if they hadn't already. That is always a positive thing. Magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am sharing some prizes from The Advent Chase Hunt, a free gridwide (and marketplace) hunt where you will be looking for candles in either pink, blue, or pale yellow depending on if the gift is male, female, or unisex. Hints and LMs are on their blog, so be sure to have it open as a guide. I hope you enjoy these glimpses!
My first look tonight really made me smile because I immediately recognized one of Hello Kitty's friends, who is named Chococat. He's snuggled on my sweater, which is from the candle at Tiffany Designs and called TD Moni Mesh Sweater in Green. Inside you will find the sweater in plenty of fitmesh sizes including Belleza, Maitreya, Hourglass, Slink, and TMP Large and TMP Small. Also included, the cute black pants in a system layer plus appliers for TMP, Maitreya, Omega, Slink, and Belleza. The tree behind me is part of my furnished rental skybox's options for the holidays, how cool is it to be able to use a HUD to change your furniture? :)
Perhaps you'd like something dressier, be sure to head to Bella Moda where there are 2 hidden candles for the ladies (and don't forget to visit their neighboring store Zed for 2 male and 2 female prizes) and you will be as delighted as I was to find this gorgeous gown and matching shoes inside one of the candles. This is Abito Fluente Teal Flowing Gown & Shoes, and the gown is included in standard mesh sizes plus Hourglass, Physique, Maitreya, and one called Classic which may be a fitmesh for the classic avatar. The shoes have a Slink size and a resize version pair, so you can adjust them to whatever mesh feet you prefer.
If you are more in the mood for a deep pink, Bella Moda's other candle has you covered :) This is their Prestigio Fuschia Gown & Shoes, and both the shoes and gown have plenty of sizes to please every body. The gown has standard, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, Maitreya, and TMP versions included, and the shoes come in Slink, Belleza, Maitreya, and resize versions. All that and a lovely glittery texture, color me happy!
This particular gift was found on the marketplace since the store, Xtasya, doesn't currently have an in-world location but that shouldn't mean they cannot participate in hunts. This is their Steampunk Dress in Xmas, and the flattering style is included in 9 fitmesh sizes: standard, Physique, Hourglass, Maitreya, and Belleza. All you need to do is look at their marketplace page, and you will see it for $0L and with a pink candle on the vendor image.
One last festive look for the evening, this is our stunning gift from Sweet E's when you find that pretty pink candle. This is called Red Candy Cane Kate Gown and comes in a fitmesh size along with Maitreya, Slink, and Slink Hourglass sizes. It is such a flattering shape, and candy canes have never look so sophisticated as they do scattered across this beautiful bodice.
A few side notes: my skin is the same 7 Deadly s{K}ins Fabienne in Apricot that I wore yesterday, the advent gift from the 6th which I believe can be purchased after the date has passed. The group is free to join for the rest of the month, so don't miss out if you enjoy their skin! My eyes are the Inkheart daily Advent gift for the 7th, Eternal Eyes in Denim, which can all be claimed for free until the beginning of January with your free group tag. The advent calendar coverage will continue in the morning, so I will be back soon with more generous gifts :) I hope you're all having a great week so far, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am showing you several prizes from the Body of Evidence Hunt, a gridwide $1L hunt with a wide variety of prizes which are labeled male, female, or unisex on the hunt website so you know before you head to each store what you can find there. The hunt objects are flat signs with corresponding stick figures for female and/or male, and there are hints on their site to guide you. As I usually do, I have picked a random selection to show you and perhaps pique your interest in hitting the hunt trail.
My first look combines two different prizes, starting with the outfit which is from OMG! Inc. called Black Leather Rivets/Chains. It comes in system layers and Omega appliers for the top and pants, and there are cuffs for the pants to give them that slightly full, wrinkled look. These are wonderfully detailed and I couldn't resist. Speaking of wonderful details, you can see that I accessorized with the stunning jewelry from Harambee-Gwassi Kenya Charity Shop, their Dragon Heart jewelry set for females (there is also a separate prizes for the males, a matching necklace to be found). I love the silver and amber combination, and have a strong fondness for dragons. The earrings remind me of seahorses, so are probably the water or serpent type dragons found in many mythology about them, and each ear cuff has a glowing heart as well.
Next I decided it was time to cool off in a brightly colored bikini from MFSL which I believe stands for Moda Fashion Second Life. This cute and flirty suit comes in standard mesh sizes, and the top and bottom are separate which can help you find a better fit sometimes. I love the sprinkling of subtle polka dots, reminds me of soft glitter.
I must be in the mood for dark colored casual wear, as my next find is this great strapless capri outfit from Moolala. It includes the top and pants as system layers and HUDs for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, and Slink, and even comes with that terrific leaf necklace. That zipper in the back is a great added touch to the already outstanding texture.
Perhaps you would enjoy something dressy, well I found this shimmery stunner as our hunt prize from Xtasya, in their Marketplace store. They might be between inworld locations at the moment as the only listing for them is the marketplace, and it is not hard to find their $1L hunt item along with other dollarbies there. This beautiful Exuberant Sequin Gown is a BoE exclusive color, and is provided in standard mesh sizes.
One final look of the evening, I have been thoroughly enjoying the prize I found at Rad Designs for this hunt called Jems. The HUD is compatible with Eve, Maitreya, Slink, and Omega, and features 6 colors with an X across it studded in diamonds. One of the colors was not working for me, just SL being its usual weird self, so there is a lovely teal that you cannot see above because it was staying a grey unrezzed texture. I would bet that when I login later, it will work perfectly for me as the other shades did :) I would also like to mention there are other hunt prizes to be found there, along with a lucky chair and a mini mania board so be sure to explore the shop and enjoy!
I apologize for the lack of post yesterday, it was a combination of technical difficulties and just a generally rough day but I really did miss blogging, and am glad to be here now. My foot is still a bother, but I am being patient while it tries to heal, and I have some random ideas for future blog posts. Those are important as they keep me motivated, and I do welcome suggestions here or on twitter or flickr, etc. With fewer free gridwide hunts these days, it can be pretty rough finding quality freebies to share.
Sending you all many magical magpie hugs, and I hope you are all enjoying your day/evening!!

Hiya everyone! I am pleased to share some more Wash Cart Sale bargains tonight, along with more gifts from the Peace On Earth 8 Hunt. You have plenty of time left to enjoy both the hunt and the sale, as each are until early January so after the holiday rush. I have some really wonderful outfits to show you tonight!
First we have two dresses available at the Wash Cart Sale from Ayva's Attic, their Punk Strap Dress in green elf and red tartan. If you can't decide which you prefer (like me), you will be glad to hear that they are only $10L each so you could always get both :) The green honestly reminded me of St. Patrick's Day as well, so that speaks to its flexibility for not being restricted to one holiday or season. My shoes are another Cart Sale find, from Battle Fairy, who are offering 8 different pairs of their All You Need Is Love Heels in a wide variety of color combinations, this being called Noel. At a mere $10L per pair, you deserve to treat yourself :)
Loordes of London has a lovely assortment of sale items on their cart, and I picked out some neutral colors to share this evening. On the left I am wearing The Togatus dress with its flattering shape, and on the right I am showing the alluring Catalonia III. My fancy footwear is a very pretty pair of sandals called The Bucking Wedges, just right for Slink high feet. You can find their main store here, and the link for the cart is in the credits.
On to the Peace On Earth Hunt, there were still some fantastic prizes I wanted to share and the weekend works out well for me to do so. This stunner is the Elegant Strapless with Bow - Pale from XTASYA, who are #62 in the hunt. Think of how many heads you will turn when you wear this!
Always Designs is #57 in the POE hunt, and their gift for us is their SHE Mesh Cut Out Gown, and you'll notice it comes with accessories which makes me very happy. The chic black rose veil and the earrings you see here are part of the gift, along with a pair of heels not shown as they aren't for Slink feet and have those prim feet built in that need skin tinting. I'm sure the dress will look amazing no matter what shoes you pair it with :)
Last but certainly not least, how breathtaking is this prize? You definitely need to click this pic to see it in its full glory and really appreciate this Frost Fae outfit from BlueMoon enterprise. It includes the fitmesh top, sleeves in a fitmesh version and Slink fit version, ice wings, and the skirt with its gorgeous snowy scene inside. It even poofs snowflakes, as you can see. BMe is #58 in the hunt path, and definitely worth the trip.
Nail notes of the night: For the first two pictures I am wearing Slink Frenchie from Rad Designs, who have 2 carts set up at the Wash, a must-see selection of nails for every mood. For the last 3 photos with the POE8 prizes, I went with the hunt prize #17 from Luna that I'd blogged last weekend with more POE goodies.
Busy weekend ahead, but I hope you've all got something fun planned. I will have more Cart Sale treats to show you, along with more hunt gifties, so I'm looking forward to that. Magical magpie hugs to all of you!!

Hiya everyone! Another busy day, another feast...I was fortunate enough to find another store with a group that's free to join and the benefits include a Midnight Mania board, 10 lucky boards, and group gifts as well. The store is called Nala Design, and you'll see the group joiner when you walk in the main store, then in the right section of the store you can find all the board and gifts. Not only do I have a sampling of those to share, but I have a $1L hunt gift from the Twisted Tale Hunt to share first.
This cheerful and sexy dress is by XTASYA and is called the Twisted Dot Dress, and is the dollarbie prize from the Twisted Tale Hunt found there in a red book. The hunt ends on the 30th so you will need to hurry, but you'll find hints and locations on their blog to help you decide which stores to visit.
Over to Nala Design, where I was lucky enough to win this great prize from one of their lucky boards. It is called Zayed Maze, and once you've joined their group for free you too might win this generous gift of a mesh top and skinny pants, plus matching shoes for Slink high (check out the awesome key heels!) and even a pair of glowy earrings and a necklace with a key to match the shoes. Fantastic complete outfit, isn't it?
Perhaps like me (as evidenced by the blog name) you are a fan of Midnight Mania boards, then perhaps you will be fortunate enough to be one of 40 clickers to receive this outfit named Angel. It includes the mesh red & gold jumpsuit, the pretty gold bracelet which is actually a large pile of bangles in one piece, and let's not forget the purse and even the matching shoes for Slink high. Sometimes it's fun to spend time scrolling through your favorite accessories to find the perfect match, other times you just want to be able to dress quickly and easily to start your SL time right away. This store seems to be ideal for finding an entire ensemble in one folder :)
I did mention group gifts, and here they are! These fantastic dresses are both named Naima, and while they are similar they have distinct differences that make me glad to have both in my inventory. Naima Red on the left and in the center is a delight in crimson and gold. It comes with 2 pearl bracelets, the scarf I'm wearing in the left panel in 3 sizes, and gold sandals for Slink high. Naima Black is shaded in charcoal and silver, with a lovely subtle pattern on it. It comes with 3 different pearl bracelets, black shoes for Slink high, and instead of a scarf it includes a pearl necklace to match the bracelets. These are the two group gifts currently available in the store, and there is one for the SL F&O group as well.
Nail note of the night: I visited Entice and won from their lucky boards a very cute set of manicures, the Living for Love Nails HUDs for Darks which come in Slink and Maitreya appliers. They offer 5 designs in various colors and subtle patterns to choose from, and no group is needed for their lucky boards.
Wowie, I am really running late tonight! There is just one more busy day before I can actually relax and be lazy on Sunday, hehe, but I have enjoyed everything that has been keeping me occupied lately. I hope you all have a beautiful weekend, magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
