More WOMENstuff Treats

Hiya everyone! I sure hope you aren't tired of seeing these terrific prizes from the WOMENstuff Hunt yet, since there are even more and I am still enjoying the opportunity to share them :) The variety is impressive, and this particular hunt seems to attract designers who represent a huge range of styles so you are bound to find things that suit your personal tastes. Well, let's see what strikes your fancy tonight...
Here we have a casual and colorful sweater dress from sf design, who are #149 in the hunt. The colors are fantastic (my favorites in fact) and I am a big fan of the attached belt since it adds a nice touch and since it's already attached, it's already a perfect fit with no tedious adjustments needed. Now those gorgeous ear cuffs that it turns out are only really visible in the inset are our prize from !NFINITY #090 in the hunt. These beauties have a HUD to change the small pearl colors to pink, white, or black (black shown in top image, pink in bottom) and the metal to silver, gold, or black (black shown up top, gold below). Lots of versatility there so this is a very useful find.

Lots of explaining to do here, like why I'm suddenly blonde :) The fire opals in my tiara didn't show up very well on my usual auburn shade, so it's a good thing my Magika hair has a HUD with a wide range of colors. It's also a good thing that I decided to try on the newest WoW Skins group gift, as the pale brows work nicely with lighter hair. That tiara is the amazing prize from Zuri Rayna Jewelry, who are #003 in the hunt. You know I had to show you a closer view so you could fully appreciate the artistry that went into this dazzling headdress. Speaking of 'dress', how pretty is this dress with its black lace trim and matching shoes? They are prize #102 from ILLI and you will receive the dress in the usual mesh sizes for easy fitting. The shoes are included in both Slink and Maitreya versions, called Penny which could be the color.

Let's not forget that there are plenty of casual treats to be found too, like this variety of tops and pants. The pants shown are all actually the gift from blah.BLAH.blah, who are #069 in the hunt, and are called Jasmin Fair Jeans which come with a HUD to change the pants themselves to 7 different colors, and the attached belt has 6 HUD options (white, brown or black, each accented in silver or gold) so these provide a lot of potential. On the left we have the prize from Trinite (#108) called Jessie. In the middle, the top is #118 J&A Rock Culture's prize called Blouse with Fringes Tribal. Both of those come in standard mesh sizes. On the right, I am wearing the prize from Tits Up! called Bunneh Shirt hunt gift, and they are #130 in the hunt. It comes in system layers with a HUD for Slink, Brazilia, Omega and TMP appliers. I did in fact use the HUD to apply the glove layer to my Slink hands, as the sleeves do come down that far with the pretty blue trim as you can see. This is quite a variety of tops just among these three.

Wrapping things up for the night with a bright and sassy outfit from Sin Original, we have prize #126 called Josslyn Jumper. As you can see, the fun swirl design is on the back and front of the bodice, and the flowy pants have a neat lightning pattern on them. Good news, those matching shoes with the killer platform heels are included! I always do appreciate it very much when someone includes shoes or any matching accessories really, as otherwise I will sometimes spend far too much time insisting on trying on everything in my jewelry or shoes folder to find just the right match. 

Nail news of the night: this is an exciting one, there is a free gift at La Boheme this week, right at their front door on an easel. Set for sale at $0L, no group needed, you will find two sets of HUDs in the folder for Slink hands and feet. You can see their picture here, they are both corset pinstripe designs. More good news, they are having a big sale so it is well worth a TP over there!

Well it's that time again, time for me to tell you where to obtain all these lovely treasures :) The credits are also important to me so I can properly thank all these generous designers for sharing their talents with us. Hope you are having a lovely day/evening, magpie hugs to each of you!!

Monday WOMENstuff Installment

Hiya everyone! Somehow Monday has turned into Tuesday here, as I am running way behind for which I am very sorry. I may have been too ambitious taking multiple pictures for each of tonight's images, hehe, but here's hoping this post will be worth the wait! Here are some WOMENstuff Hunt gifts that I am so glad I found...

Let's start off with the hunt prize from BRAVURA! who are #084 in this hunt. The Split Side Jump Suit Pop Art is a very fun way to get dressed up without actually wearing a dress, and the glimpses of skin in unexpected places are so alluring. It comes in standard mesh sizes, and the belt is attached.

What could be better than a gorgeous dress? How about a gorgeous dress in two fantastic colors? :) This is our prize from Just Darling (#048) and includes Eva Gown in Pearl, and in Red. They are both so elegant, and I couldn't resist showing that pretty bow in the back because you probably know by now how much I love a nice bow. That bit of a train in the back is a dreamy touch, and I'm really fascinated by the Pearl color since it is remarkably like a real pearl with varying shades of colors throughout. 

For another stunning dress, you'll want to head to store #133 Jana's Classic Designs and find that red t-shirt, which contains this Tamar Pink Dress with a lovely added bonus of a bottom and top mesh layer so you can wear the simple underneath layer (shown on the left) with its pretty textured silk belt, or you can add the top layer to provide the belt with bow and the lacy texture for the bodice. There is even a flexi layer skirt (sorry, not shown) if you want even more fullness for the skirt. I thought this would be a good way to show you the gorgeous shoes from #134 Wicca's Wardrobe, this is a $1L prize that is very well worth that little linden :) The Tropicana Wedges in pink starlet are for Slink high feet, and check out that shimmery looking leather texture! 

I couldn't resist this sexy little slip dress from Vengeful Threads, who are #010 in the hunt. This is their Eclypse mini in purple, and it comes with a fun bonus...the pretty pink nails! You know I am passionate about nails, so I was really pleased to see that. Now if you're eyeballing the pretty jewelry I am sporting in this photo, I can't blame you a bit, and am happy to share that you can find the set for yourself in the t-shirt at G&T Creations. They are #061 in the hunt, and have included their Rose Icecle necklace (versions with and without scripts which I believe to be bling), earrings, and a belly ring not shown because my belly button is hiding beneath the dress. Look at that gorgeous detail on the jewelry, those roses are divine! Their icicles seem to have an animated texture to them, it looks like it is gently shimmering in person. The necklace you can see in the closeup has a very slight bling to it, nothing like that wild blinding stuff of days gone by ;) The unscripted version doesn't have it though so if you prefer without, you can have it just the way you want it.

Nail note of the night: I have used both nail prizes I have shown before, Pink Cherry #043 and MANIK QUEEN #091, details in credits as always :) The last photo I am using the one that came with the dress, from Vengeful Threads. 

My company and I visited with my parents longer than I expected, which was truly enjoyable as was their entire visit :) Seeing them off has apparently gotten me to a later start than usual tonight though, plus it's always hard to say goodbye to someone you don't see as often as you'd like. All is well though, and I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a great week ahead. Magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

More WOMENstuff Treats

Hiya everyone! Welcome to part 4 of my WOMENstuff Hunt goodies, which isn't that unusual considering that there are 150 stores participating in the hunt and I would guess that just over half are free. I do have plenty more to show in the future :) Meanwhile let's get started with the generous prizes!

First we have one of the very few $1L prizes I decided to pick up, and this was mostly because I love the store Wicked so much. Their prize (#002 in the hunt) does not disappoint, as you can see. It is the lovely Ginger outfit complete with mesh tank top, mesh skirt, and two matching bracelets. I love the way the bracelets highlight that pale teal from the tank top with their beads, and the single strap draping around the back of the neck to hook on the other side is a very unique, eye-catching touch. A linden well spent in my opinion :)

Tamiron Forge is #057 in the hunt, and are offering us this beautiful free dress with an unusual feature...the HUD to change textures actually offers various configurations of the same two fabrics, all three styles I am showing here. You still get the same lovely design and colors, and the dress itself is such a flattering style.

My last photo of the night is showing two different prizes, both of which I love. The outfit is prize #093 by London Core Designs, called Kaylee, and includes the Kaylee tee in black dot, Kaylee skirt in black, and Kaylee platform sandals for Slink high. The top and skirt come in standard mesh sizes. I decided to accessorize with a little pop of color, the delightful gift from Captivating! They are the Pandora-style bracelets in blues and purples, and both left and right are included. With a casual outfit I would probably just choose one or the other, but it was fun to show you that they do provide both in their prize.

Nail note of the night: I went with the same prize as last night, the Very Vintage Nails from #091 MANIK QUEEN. I only know of 2 prizes that were nails, so I will be featuring them a lot ;)

I am still enjoying time with my holiday company, and that is why the blogs are a bit shorter, but I do hope they are still helpful and fun to read. I also hope you are all enjoying your weekend, magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

A Few More WOMENstuff Prizes

Hiya everyone! I have a quick post to share with you, a few more of the many wonderful WOMENstuff Hunt prizes, which as there are so many I can easily keep busy with them for quite a while. As it is a holiday weekend here in the USA and I have a houseguest, I kept these photographs quite simple.

First we have a sweet spaghetti strap style dress from Sherbert, who are #083 in the hunt. The colors are quite fun, and the style works well if you are still thinking of warm late summer evenings. I might wear this dress while I finish this hunt, finding the rest of the prizes out there. It comes in standard sizes plus a fitted mesh version which I believe is better for mesh bodies.

I think this dress is deceptively simple at first glance, when in actuality it is really sexy with that plunging cleavage and alluring slit skirt. This mesh Tuxedo Dress is our prize #060 from Grumble, who not only sponsor several hunts per year but take part in many as well. Just find the red t-shirt there and you'll have this wonderful dress for your own, standard mesh sizes and the belt is attached.

When thinking simple and cute, these overalls with attached tank top beneath definitely caught my attention and begged to be shared. The side view actually works nicely to display the fun buttons that perfectly match the shirt, and the flash of belly skin that shows before the denim overalls start and the pink shirt ends. Please head to #066 C&P Casual Wear if you want this free gift too :) We all have days where we need something suitable for hanging around with friends or going out shopping, and these are relaxed but pretty and comfy looking.

Nail note of the night: MANIK QUEEN is stop #091 in the hunt, and we have them to thank for the beautiful Very Vintage Nails I am sporting in the photos tonight. 6 choices with soft pastels, dark trim or light trim, in HUDs for Slink or Omega so these will work on many different hands and feet.

As for me, I am still stuffed from a barbecue earlier with family and friends, couldn't ask for better company really, and the food was delicious :) Organic, locally sourced food is good for the body and soul, and I really should eat that way all the time like my parents do. It has been a busy but fantastic day, and I am sending best wishes and magpie hugs to all of you!!

More WOMENstuff Hunt Prizes

Hiya everyone! I have a part two of the WOMENstuff Hunt prizes I found to share with you, as I am 2/3 of the way through the hunting and am so enjoying the fantastic goodies. Here's hoping you do too!!

I find that lace can be elegant or sexy, depending on the use, and in this beautiful dress from #026 -CroM- it is both. Fanny Sequin Dress comes in standard mesh sizes and includes a HUD to change between the red and black shown, and I am wild about the handkerchief hem!

This chic gown from Vanbeecks (#016) has a bit of a naughty side...the rear ;) It is named Autumn Gold Gown and comes in standard mesh sizes, with a flash of bum cleavage to add a little something special. I feel like I should be walking a red carpet, presenting an award or maybe even winning one.

For the last glimpse of summer, how about prize #030? This bikini and the surfboard with the built in pose are both from Angel DELUXE, the mesh top and bottom come in standard mesh sizes with that terrific bright floral pattern. Just wear/add the board and it tucks right under your arm and you're all set to hit the waves!

Finally we have a playful short dress from Eluzion, who are #020 in the hunt. This is called Darlena Classy and has a HUD with 3 color choices for the skirt, all of which I've shown above. Just don't try to make me pick a favorite when they are all so soft and pretty! This dress is mesh in standard sizes.

Nail note of the night: same nail HUD as yesterday, hunt prize #043 from Pink Cherry. Nail polish is a passion of mine, RL and SL, so I would love to see even more prizes of nail HUDs but there is a not-free hunt for just nails out there and I expect to pick up at least a couple of those prizes eventually :) 

Blog note: I have a houseguest on the way for the long holiday weekend (until Monday evening) so my posts will be shorter and maybe even later than usual, but I'll do my best to make sure I still post something. I'm really excited to have company, don't get me wrong, and my blogging means a lot to me as well. Okay, credits time, magical magpie hugs to each of you along with wishes for a wonderful weekend!!

WOMENstuff Hunt Treasures

Hiya everyone! Most of you are probably familiar with the very popular WOMENstuff Hunt, full of talented designers and generous gifts. For the entire month of September, you can visit 150 of those designers and find a red t-shirt for either $0L or $1L for some truly wonderful prizes. So far I'd say the majority chose to go with $0L, so I will mostly be showing you completely free gifts from the hunt.


First up tonight, we have some beautiful monochromatic gifts that show you don't need bright colors to catch attention. The dress is from Fi's Creations (#031) and you will receive both the white and black versions shown, in standard mesh sizes. The jewelry is courtesy of Chop Zuey who are #004 in the hunt. The set is called A Special Grace, and includes the necklace, earrings, and bracelet all shown.


If you want something less formal, perhaps this sexy outfit fits your mood better. If so, head on over to store #007 Sweet Temptations and find that t-shirt to receive the Azahara outfit. It includes the top, skirt, and boots for Slink high, with plenty of different sizes included so you can find the best fit. There is also a system layer pair of panties included, since that skirt is remarkably short that it is a good idea ;)


Back to formal, this gorgeous gown is from Mariposa, who are #012 in the hunt. This Iridescent Satin Bandage Gown is a stunning color, comprised of a mesh skirt and top in standard sizes, along with the left and right flexi skirt pieces. As you can see, it looks great with or without the flexi! There are also fitmesh gloves included but not shown.


The last look of the night is the LYNN dress from Anin a Gris, who are #036 in the hunt. The autumn colors are quite lovely, and I accessorized it with the gift from #011 Stars! That includes the Fall Leaves necklace and earrings shown, with a closer look in the inset so you can see the detail. I love the each leaf is a different artistic style, yet they all work so well together.

Nail note of the night: I located the t-shirt at #043 Pink Cherry and was excited to find their Wings exclusive nail polish HUD. There are several different colors of a wing design on black backgrounds. 

A thunder storm is cropping up so I'd better get to the credits...hugs and magical magpie hugs to all of you!!

Gifts from Garage Deals

Hiya everyone! There is a new monthly event in town, Garage Deals, which will run the 1st to 15th of each month and feature something new ($99L or less), something old (50% off), and something free. You can probably guess that I will be featuring some of the free gifts tonight.

Let's start off with the gift from the organizer of this new event, Fi's Creations. Their offering is the lovely Sunday's Dress in blue, and also in peach, although both colors are featured in each as you can see. The belt ties the colors together nicely, and is a built in part of the dress.

Kelli Kreations is providing this sexy little number as our free gift, which is simply called Diamonds. I think you needed to see the back view on this one as well as the front, both will catch your eye (or those of whomever you wish!) and the colors are as striking as the style and pattern.

If you are looking for something even more adventurous, how about this gift from *Jennis Meshandise*? Their gift is this stunning Giselle underwear in red, and the top and bottom are separate mesh pieces in standard sizes, so you can mix sizes if you need to for the perfect fit. It's got a very modern, even futuristic feel to it.

Sometimes it's all about the details, and this photo is chock full of them :) My shirt is our gift from *LX* and is a beautifully draped mesh in standard sizes along with ones for Slink and Maitreya. The necklace is "Witch" in silver by Home Improvement, with a built in resize script and really great details. If you're admiring the shoes, I can't blame you! That is our gift courtesy of Faerietale Designs, their High Heel Clogs in Skulls and Flowers, and comes with a HUD bearing 8 texture choices which include 4 with flowers and 4 with skulls. The hard part would be picking my favorite, so I will just have to wear them with as many various colors of outfits as possible :)

My final photo features the gifts from two different designers, one of which is the exquisitely textured corset from Lu (Bacidalucia). Our gift from Mutiny in Heaven includes both the Autumn Chapeau and the 3 Strand Pearls necklace, sure to add a touch of class to a wide variety of outfits.

I love when the new month begins and brings with it new hunts and events to explore, it's so exciting! Some of the bigger events like the Arcade will be something I wait about a week for the crowds to clear before I even attempt to visit, but there is always something to explore. Well it's time for the credits, magpie hugs to each of you!
