The Fifty Anniversary

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I was excited to see that The Fifty is celebrating their third anniversary :) You may also know this event for the weekly sales Fifty Linden Fridays, and they have a lovely new event space for us to visit. Their Fifty Linden Fridays group is just $1L to join, and with that tag you can claim dozens of terrific gifts by clicking the boxes at most of the displays. I had a lot of fun checking out the discounted offers and picking up some demos, and of course the generous gifts to help us commemorate three years of The Fifty. 


For my first look, I combined two different gifts that I think are a cute pairing. The Palette - Crys Top [Black] is a very pretty cropped blouse with square neckline and puffed sleeves that end in pert ruffles. It comes in sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, Juicy Rolls, and Waifu mesh bodies. My shorts here are the [RED GIRL] Jayden Shorts Stripes gift, with versions 1 and 2 (left and right, respectively) each designed for Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn bodies. The thinnest stripes are the main difference, a reddish hue on v1 but a yellowish shade for v2. They are a flattering snug fit that caught my eye immediately.


The [RED GIRL] shorts came in handy again to share the -Pixicat- Astrid Cardigan gift. We receive the cardigan and singlet (cropped wisp of a top layered beneath) each in sizing for Legacy, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu, as well as a HUD with 23 colors for the singlet. The cardigan is open and has a fun hood, so I almost wanted to call it a hoodie :) It looks so cozy and warm!


This beauty is our RIOT / Katherine Dress & Blouse - Gift. The dress is what you're seeing here actually, with the included blouse being a shorter version that comes just to the natural waist and can be paired with your favorite bottoms. Each of these is provided in Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing. The deep hunter green color is adorned with intriguing artwork that has a mystical flavor to it, very lovely indeed.


Next I shimmied into the KILLJOY Wallflower Dress and its provided BOM alpha layer to help cinch in the waist for a stunning look. This bare shouldered beauty comes in Lara X, Flat, Petite X, Legacy, V-Tech, Reborn, Waifu, and Reborn V-Tech mesh body sizing. I really enjoy the tiny polka dot pattern too, a fun little touch for sure.


My final look this evening is our cheezu. choa set : black gift, a sweet pairing of halter top and miniskirt. There are Legacy, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, and Reborn mesh body sizes for each piece, helping it fit many popular bodies. The top has a very pretty bow at the cleavage, and the skirt is slit on each thigh for an extra flash of skin.

I hope you're all having a decent day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

FLF Birthday Bash

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm delighted to invite you to the FLF Birthday Bash '23, which is the 14th birthday celebration of the Fifty Linden Fridays sales event. It is such an impressive milestone to reach, out of the 20 years that SL has been around, so of course I was excited to be able to share some treats with all of you :) Naturally the name of the event comes into play with a bounty of $50L offers, deeply discounted from the original retail price of these creations, and for the birthday bash you can join their free group if not already a member and claim lots of wonderful gifts. These are at each display in a purple skateboard, just click each one you see and receive your group gift :) You can't miss the bold purple color, and most are set to the group tag but a couple were for sale for $0L available to all visitors. Every time an event celebrates a birthday or anniversary, it leads me to marvel at their longevity and I get a little SL-sentimental from all the amazing memories.


Do you want to believe? Our gift from *NeverWish* certainly does! It is their I Want to Believe Crop Top, which says exactly that (I want to believe) in white across a fading X so possibly a reference to X-Files, yet I feel that it can apply to many things if we so choose :) It fits Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. Of course I needed a lower portion of the outfit, so I gratefully slipped into the PROMAGIC Ananda Skirt Yellow gift. I feel like that sunny hue is having quite a moment lately, and this flirty miniskirt is a particularly bright shade of yellow that draws attention just as much as that cheeky rear view ;) There are sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, and J-Rolls included. For many destinations you will need some undies for modesty, and for this combo I'd go with black to match the shirt.


Next I kept the sassy skirt on but changed tops, showing you both of the cheezu. 2023 FLF B-BASH GIFT options. Their hera top comes in versions a (left) and b (right), fun cow prints with a dainty bow at the center of the neckline. Each of those will fit Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies with ease. I am a fan of just about all animal prints as nods to nature, so these were instant favorites.


It amused me that Lady Marmalade came on the 70s music channel I have on, just as I start describing this pair of gifts that are both worthy of a sexy power ballad :) The top is our Vague. Jadori Top gift, which comes in sizing for Kupra, Kupra Squeezed Corset, Legacy, Reborn, and Reborn Juicy bodies (no Maitreya, so I swapped back to Legacy body before starting to take the photos). There is also a HUD that lets us pick from 14 wonderful colors, so the gathered tube top is as versatile as it is alluring. Then I tried on the delicate Asteria"Juhi"Panties-Purple gift, whose wings in the front made me think of a golden snitch because of the roundness of the fabric beneath it. There are Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes of this thong styled panty in my favorite color.


Leave it to Entice to remind us that summer is time to be sexy with their charming Malibu Bikini v2 - Smoke gift! The itty bitty top and bottoms each come in Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes, with a great texture on this tiny triangles of wispy plumes of smoke on a dark background. Please pass the sunscreen!


The evening's final look is a gift paired with a sales item for a playful combination. The dress is our Raquel Dress gift from ELEVEN, whose sassy cat on the front elicited quite a chuckle when I zoomed in. The short t-shirt style dress has built in panties, and is included in sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies. Of course I had to share a closeup so you could see what I was laughing at :) Then I added the Entice - Walking On Sunshine Sandals Set - Pinks for a pop of color, one of 8 sets available (Blues, Coastal, Desert, Earth, Mono, Pink, Reds, and Sunset) at the birthday bash for $50L apiece. If you really want them all, via fatpack, it is also discounted at $299L so it's like getting two of them for free. I used the Blues set for the closer view inset, just for added variety. The sandals come in Gen X, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn sizing, with a HUD that offers 3 main colors plus two (black or white) each for the soles and insoles. The closed toe but open heel makes me think we can easily enjoy this style year round, and the many potential colors make it a great wardrobe staple.

Hair note of the night: this is another Truth Hair collaborative effort with the brand FAGA, and an especially affordable one since it's also found at the FLF Birthday Bash for $50L per individual color pack. It is called Lonely, and has the sides pulled back on a feathery shoulder length style that reminded me of my late 80s hair. I had fun playing with the stylist tab of the HUD as well as the tinting of the hair accessory, and was glad I picked up both the blonde and redhead packs.

Another day and another virtual appointment here, as my busy week marches on. This was the family doctor, and went pretty well with lots more apologizing for the prior call she forgot to put on the schedule. We are slightly adjusting some meds and trying a couple of new things, with a lot of talk about tomorrow's first therapy session. It is both exciting and nerve-wracking for me, as any meeting with someone new can be for an introvert even without all the anxiety issues, but I am doing my best to stay positive. I have to make sure the video chat program installed properly on my ipad, and of course that it's fully charged so the session doesn't get interrupted by tech fails. As I always say and always truly mean, I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More FLF Birthday Bash Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more FLF Backyard Birthday Bash group gift to show you, since there were simply too many to fit into one post. The Fifty Linden Fridays group is free to join, and the gifts are in beverage coolers at each display so you just need to click those to receive your free treats. Be sure to visit before the 3rd of September, when the bash winds down for the summer. 


My first look combines several gifts, so let's start from the top with the Flora. blossom top ~ fatpack. It includes Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes, with a HUD to choose from 6 lovely colors. I really do enjoy floral patterns year round, so I am a big fan of this treat :) The pants come from ISON and are called anika patent leather pants (FLF Gift). These slick jeans-styled pants fit Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies, and the included HUD has an impressive 30 colors to choose from. These will be able to match just about anything you wish! As for accessories, my choker is the .Quirky. Mad Lover Collar [Gift] which is provided in v1 and v2 (I must admit, I did not see a difference) with a HUD to select from 5 textures each for the band and the closure in front. Since we all deserve a versatile pair of shoes, how about these fun peeptoe platforms from Phedora? They are called Shelbie Heels ~20C. Fatpack, and as you can guess from the name there are 20 colors via HUD for each of 3 parts (top, sole, and platform). The shoes themselves are provided in Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Slink high sizing. 


I kept the ISON pants on to show you another top, the charming [JUSTICE] ASHLEY TOP - INDIGO group gift. This gathered tube top has a zipper in the front, and a HUD with 6 metal colors to choose from for said zipper. The top itself comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes. The neckline hits just low enough that it frames my necklace choice beautifully! That would be our MG - Necklace - Butterfly - Jewelled - GOLD+SILVER gift from Maxi Gossamer. There are a total of 6 versions included, both metals mentioned in the name with long, short 1, and short 2 versions where the short 2 has a smaller pendant. I am wearing short 1 in gold here, with a mix of green stones that I chose from the menu you can access by clicking it. (Either left click the necklace itself, or what I find easier is to 'right click - touch' from inventory.) There are 14 gem colors to choose from, so your lovely butterfly can match or coordinate with anything you wear with it. 


Next we have the gift from VINYL which is their Tokyo Tied Top Pak Metallic Gift. It includes Alice, Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes, with a 4 color HUD so you can choose your favorite metallic hue. I was intrigued by how long the ties hang down in the front, and that opening above them is a bit racy with that flash of underboob ;) The single shouldered style got my attention too, as I have found lately that I find symmetry in fashion overrated. Those are the ISON pants making another appearance too, and they are about to make yet another...


This tantalizing top is the OSMIA gift called [Peyton], and it has a very useful unpacking HUD where you choose your body size and deliver just that set - Freya, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, or Petite - or you can click the All button to deliver the lot. Each size comes in 9 colors: black, brown, cream, lime (seen on the right above), orange, red, rose (left), tan, and white. Just think of all the things you already have in your inventory that will coordinate so well with this...pants, shorts, skirts, leggings...and just about any color will find its mate. 


My final look of the evening is a fine choice for these still-hot late summer days. The bikini is the Aurly Bikini Tye Dye & Yellow gift from Luas, which surprised me with the monochromatic fabric instead of the bright colors I usually associate with tie dye. The contrast to the vivid yellow is beautiful! The top and panties are each provided in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. I could not resist accessorizing with the cheezu. gold citrus earring group gift, which includes 4 pairs of earrings for you to choose from. There are solid and clear versions each of their lemon and grapefruit slices, and in the main photo I am wearing the sheer lemon but in the closer view (inset) you can see the solid grapefruit with its pink hue. Who else is craving lemonade now?

This has been a very hectic evening, and I am running behind while trying to multitask, apparently not too well. Usually I can handle a few things at once, but I guess I got a little carried away adding more ;) I have an appointment tomorrow so I will be out for part of the day, but it shouldn't interfere with my blogging schedule. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
