Sweets from Swank

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I am changing things up a bit with the format of my post, while dressing my inner Wednesday Addams or Lydia Deetz with some group goodies from SWANK. Their October round is Goth Halloween, and if you have their group tag active (free to join) you can click all the pumpkins you see for treats from dozens of brands.

The daily credits about my hair, body, skin, etc. can now be found in the Everyday Basics tab above :) I'll mention specifics at the end (which hair, which body, etc.) but links have been relocated to keep things cleaner and simpler. I apologize for some of my recent posts going missing and am adjusting the style to help prevent that from happening. Okay, on to the photographs!

First up, we have the JUMO Originals - AIMEE Dress SPECIAL which is a fantastic strapless tube top with midriff cutout. There are Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes included, as well as a HUD with 6 texturing options. The little triangular notches add to the clever geometric styling, and the texture on the left almost feels tie-dye but modernized. 

I also found a pumpkin that held this lovely VIONA Isabel Dress [FATPACK]. It has a perfect style for these days when the evenings are a bit cooler, but the days can still be quite warm :) The neckline, high waist, and seams at the elbow have dainty X's of material holding them loosely closed, very visually appealing. We receive sizing for Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite bodies. The enclosed HUD offers 25 colors for the entire dress at once, or those same 25 each for the top, skirt, and lower arms, plus 10 material colors (gradients) for those X pieces in all the seams. This really reminds me of a blouse my mom had in the 60s that I've seen pictures of relatively recently, just that elegantly retro style making another appearance as fashion truly is cyclical.

My first thought when trying on the Elsie Outfit FATPACK from Soho Chic is that if we add a pair of wings, we'll have an amazing Halloween outfit as a fairy! The lacy tank top and handkerchief hemmed miniskirt will each fit Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn bodies, and we receive a HUD with 25 color choices for each piece. I'm suggesting a pair of BOM panties for modesty :) 

There is definitely something slinky about this snakeskin print, and the red hue is probably a big part of that. It appears on the :::WILD:::Fashion Giavanna Dress, a strapless minidress with golden zipper all the way down the front. I love the way it hugs the body, which it is designed to do for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu. My mind goes to music often, so now I have "Toxic" in my head!

My final look of the evening is fully loaded, as V8 Underground's outfits do tend to be. The **ANNA GOLD WITCH CONCEPT COSTUME STYLE COMPLETE OUTFIT** starts with the mesh clothing - top, shorts, and boots in sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu bodies. There are BOM layers of Evo X makeup, gloves, and stockings, then we get to add the hat, necklace, earrings, and accessories (bows) for waist and each boot. We can even hold the candle in our right hand and potion bottle in our left hand that you see above. The details are so impressive here, and I appreciate the option to wear as many or as few of the add-ons as I want to for each time I slip into this generous costume.

It has been a long and frustrating week, but I am taking deep breaths and trying to think positive thoughts :) The farmers market I usually go to suddenly canceled for tomorrow, less than 24 hours before it was to open, so that caused a change of plans. Sometimes being flexible is challenging with anxiety, so I am grateful for a low-stakes opportunity to handle a bit of change. Dinner with my parents was pleasant as usual, and the crockpot BBQ chicken was delicious :) I hope you all have a wonderful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Spell On You

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're exploring the CMH I Put A Spell On You Hunt 6, an annual event with hunt prizes for $1L or exclusive offers for $25L - $50L. They are hidden in images of carved pumpkins, so just right for the season :) The selection this round is particularly impressive, so I'm tickled orange (like pink but Halloween themed LOL) to share some treats! 

We start with the Adore Amore - Madilyn Sweater Orange which is a stunning $1L prize. This cozy sweater has such a flirty twist, literally, as the front is wrapped and twirled which also brings the neckline to a flirty depth. The color of our lovely knit fabric is just right for this time of year too :) We receive sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Nhumana, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. 

Starlight Apparel has a fantastic $25L exclusive offer waiting for us, called .{SA}. Lottie Pumpkin Crop Sweater. There are two texture varieties, fur and no fur, each of which are provided in Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes. The pumpkin pattern will surely bring many smiles :) I am wearing nipple covers that came with my skin, so please be aware that without those (or pasties, BOM bra, etc.) you will probably be providing a bit more of a show ;) 

Next I got magical with the GoodVibes Witchy Gold Divinity v1 prize, yours for just $1L. It starts with the long gown and separate sleeves, in sizes for Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies. There are sleeve fur attachments in two versions, which I am wearing on the left above, and of course we get to top things off with the timeless hat you see here. The hat has a resizer script built in, so go ahead and adjust it if you need to :)

Sometimes it's fun this time of year to mix spooky with sexy, like this ~Sassy!~ Spella Bats dollarbie prize. The knotted strapless top and panties both have the same pattern of bats and cobwebs, and are each included in Kupra, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu sizes. The black trim on all the edges is an eye-catching detail, as it draws attention to the bats wonderfully.

My final treat of the evening is another one from ~Sassy!~ called Spella Bones. It is also just $1L and is a similar set, with the same sizes as the Bats version. The difference is that it looks as though someone went digging in a graveyard, and found some skulls, long bones, and even ribcages to decorate the fabric with ;) We have orange-red trim on this set for a touch of contrast that I really appreciate.

It's been a frazzle kind of day, and I apologize about last night's post going missing. I have tried to republish but something about it is not being approved, and I feel awful because I have no idea what happened or what I need to correct. Genuinely been stressed out all day over it, which is a pretty helpless feeling. I am taking the evening off tomorrow to recover from a further outing than normal, so I will hopefully be back on Thursday with something new for you to enjoy. I hope you're all having a blissful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Let's Shop and Hop

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm so excited to start sharing some of the Shop & Hop Halloween 2026 gifts :) There are 12 regions with a total of 384 stores participating this round, and each of them is offering a gift for free with no group required. The FabFree spreadsheet of gifts is always a handy tool to make sure you don't miss anything, and to sort them by store name, type (mens, womens, dinkies, decor, store credit, etc.). I applaud their hard work and dedication as always ♥. I typically keep the gifts sorted by region in my folders so I can show you one region at a time, to help you track them down, so tonight's are from the Gleaming region. Please note that they have changed the structure of the region layouts this round, so there are 36 booths instead of the prior 20 in each region. It still looks great, just a bit different at first, and you'll still find all the stores on the outer ring of each region. 

The lovely Aster Outfit from Les Sucreries de Fairy is a perfect way to start the evening, with a whimsical yet spooky style in traditional Halloween hues. The dress and wings each come in two versions (both shown above) and both of them as well as the collar, armbands, and panties are have versions with and without PBR texturing. All of these are provided in Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn sizes, just click the corresponding button on the HUD to get only the set you need :) I am wearing the PBR texture of all pieces in my photo. I felt like the design on the front of the dress was becoming a Rorschach test for a moment there, LOL, as I noticed things like ribs, a spine, butterfly, a taper candle...what else did you spot?

I got a good chuckle from the print on our [Diesel Deluxe] Kyta Outfit Halloween gift, with the front view being a very orderly set of ribs, vertebrae, and pelvis, then the back has what looks like a pile of arms and skulls. The name of the gift also had "fatpack" at the end of it, but I did not see a HUD included to change the colors (and yes, I double checked contents of the unpacker HUD to make sure it didn't get left behind from being no-copy or something) so we get it simply in this x-ray color combo of black with white bones. There are sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu mesh bodies included. I also really like the way the triangular cutout in the front shows off a wedge of midriff but everything essential is still covered appropriately. Of course, now I'm laughing again wondering if anyone would consider those bare bones to be nudity? :P

Next I eagerly slipped into the Ruxy-Anemona V2 gift, lavish in crushed velvet and golden studs. The puffy shoulders lead to snug sleeves to the wrists, almost as long as our brief hemline :) Pick up this gift and you will receive Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn body sizes inside. Red and black do work beautifully for this time of year, but will also be a fun choice for the next season too since red is also traditionally festive.

Several stores have separate male and female gifts, like hizNherz whose Glowing Grins Outfit for the ladies is above :) The texture is so fun, animated so at first you just see a few pumpkins then an increasing amount until we reach maximum jack o'lantern coverage :) The dress, boots, and c-string are each included in Kupra, Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu sizes, and there's a full one-piece outfit called DRESS ME in those same sizes. I can see that being handy if you want to wear the pieces individually instead, or just get dressed with a couple quick clicks in the full ensemble.

For my final look of the night, I felt like snuggling something cute while wearing a gorgeous top. So I'm enjoying the Carol's Halloween Shop & Hop Gift 2026 tank top, which has corset style seams and black lace trim to show off the cobweb and spider pattern on the beige fabric. Her texturing is always top notch :) My new cuddly friend is the MadPea Spooky Scoop Ice Cream Plush in its hold version, but there is also a decor version that you can rez out in your home. I think it'll look cute on a chair or sofa, or somewhere near a bed. It's reminding me that I did see an ad from a certain royally named ice cream place that has keychains of their chilly blended treats available this season. Must have! So do we think this scoop is pumpkin flavored, or maybe orange sherbet? The purple sprinkles match the fruit topper and cheek patches so sweetly :)

Wow, I feel like it's been ages since I blogged last, which must say something about my weekend. The farmers market was small and quiet, but I don't regret going because I definitely needed to get out of the house :) My favorite dog wasn't there again, and I don't blame him or his human for missing such a tiny lineup. My plans for this week are coming together slowly, to the point where I am not even certain about which day I'll be headed out, let alone where. Probably Tuesday, but the "where" is going to take some googling and viewing the map to decide. There is always something happening in SL to keep me busy too :) I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Electric Eclectic

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I am inviting you back to one of the stores from yesterday's post, Electric Eclectic, where there is a wonderful free hunt happening for the season. No group is needed, just find all the tall piles of pumpkins and buy each for $0L. There are 20 total, containing not just clothing but accessories and home decor that you can enjoy for free. We get to explore the men's and women's fashion stores and the bowling alley across the courtyard, and I am absolutely bringing Xan here for some bowling when RL and SL permit. I'm always pleased to add to my fall wardrobe, and what better opportunity than a free hunt? :) I'd like to note that 2 of the 20 pumpkin towers are hiding in the bargain basement, which is located beneath the clothing store but you need to get the landmark from the sign in the courtyard to get there. Or you can click my link ;) The clothing is basically the second half of the hunt prizes, so I think one of them was in the bargain basement.

For my first look I am enjoying the dazzling Electric Lady of the Night Dress. This free prize includes sizes for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, Squeez, and Waifu mesh bodies. The red sequins actually do sparkle (animated) and the front and rear views are both jaw-droppingly sexy. 

We're changing gears here to something much more casual and cozy, the Electric Tank Top from another set of pumpkins. The charcoal colored fabric is a great neutral to pair with just about anything, don't you think? We receive sizes for Altamura, Freya, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Reborn, and Slink Hourglass bodies. I'm wearing it with the blue Delizio jeans from their fatpack which is free on the marketplace, and a favorite of mine :)

Our Electric Fall Dress 2 hunt prize is a vibrant halter dress whose straps cross in both the front and the back. So flattering, it gives an hourglass shape while showing off our legs too. This treat includes Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Kups, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Peach, Prima, Prima Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes. 

Next we take a peek at the beautiful Electric Fall Dress 1 prize. It has a fun pattern with clouds of yellow and orange coloring, and I like the way the straps are tucked beneath the arms for an extra flirtatious touch. There are sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Peach, Prima, Prima Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies provided.

My final treat of the night is the Electric Fall Dress 3, which is another prize loaded with seasonal flair and plenty of sizes :) The little strips holding the front closed are still showing off lots of midriff (and lower), and the back view has a bit of booty cleavage so this a very sexy dress. It comes in sizing for Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Prima, Prima Petite, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies.

It's been a strange start to my weekend, so I am not sure what to expect for the rest of it. I was going to go to my parents' for dinner, but woke up with severe dizziness that I would say was more like the room was spinning. It took about an hour to calm down some, and I am still feeling woozy off and on, so I had to cancel dinner unfortunately. The farmers market tomorrow is still up in the air, since it'll depend on how I feel and possibly the weather. My mom has vertigo and her mother did too, so there is a chance that I inherited the predisposition somehow. Other than that I am hoping to finish the Twisted End Game with Xan's help, and there are plenty of other things happening in SL like the opening of Shop & Hop :) I hope you all have a wonderful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Inside Your Inventory

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post is fully loaded with gifts for the Inside Your Inventory group. It is just $10L to join, and there are plenty of notices with helpful information about sales, new releases, and events. The designers can also choose to offer a gift for the group in their store if they wish, so that's what we're taking a peek at tonight :) I greatly appreciate this type of multi-designer group, and the chance to check out all of these stores to see some new stores and some old favorites.

First I visited Suna Design to pick up their S- Terra light yellow gift for the group. It consists of the bodysuit and skirt, each in sizing for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu bodies. Since they are separates you can wear just the bodysuit, or layer the skirt with other items in your inventory if you wish :) The buttery color is perfect!

Another fantastically flirty gift I found is our :::FurtaCor:::DELICIA_PLAIN::: FATPACK. The bra, panties, and skirt are each included in Kupra, Legacy, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu body sizes, and we receive a HUD with 20 colors for each. Just use the tabs on the top of the HUD to set it for which part you want to tint :) The skirt gives a very cheeky rear view.

I kept the panties on to share another gift, our Electric Eclectic WOMENS FITTED tSHIRT Pride Straight. I think Pride month is a state of mind and not limited to June, and that's not just because I've always loved rainbows. The front says "Let's get something straight - I'm not" and there are so many ways for that to apply to many of us. Personally I'm somewhere on the demisexual side of things. This muscle shirt comes in sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies. There is also a men's version next to this for Inside Your Inventory, along with other Pride shirts for various different groups.

Next the :FlowerDreams: Melis Dress is ready to dazzle in forest green sequins! There is a fitmesh M size as well as Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn sizes, plus a light that I am wearing to help illuminate the sparkles. I feel like dancing in it because it's got that loose but flattering fit, not just because of the shimmer. 

We wrap up the evening with more sparkle, thanks to the Brunsen! Tara Sexy Dress [8] gift. The magenta color is magnificent, and the strapless style is bound to earn compliments wherever we go in this. Our gift includes sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu bodies. The gift room has several other colors for various groups, and some other treats that will have you checking your list of groups to see what else you can claim :) 

I feel so slow tonight, but I was distracted by a hockey game in addition to gaming night with friends. Gaming was awesome, hockey not so much...my team lost in overtime, but generally played poorly. I am always straddling the line between optimism and frustration with this team, lol, but that does happen a lot with sports in general. If you were unable to view my previous post (Tuesday's, Yasum dollarbies) it is back, so I apologize and hope you'll take a peek now. I also hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Yasum Brings The Bargains

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I visited Yasum Design to see what was new, and all I can say is "jackpot!" :) As you may know, our talented designer offers one color of each of her new releases as a dollarbie for a limited time, and right now there are over a dozen of those for us to snag. (Yes, that does mean I'll be posting more soon!) To find them, we just look for the large heart balloons above the displays then find the balloon animal indicating the individual version that is only $1L. These are top notch creations that have always impressed me, so the chance to save so much money while enjoying the wonderful styles.

Let's start with the stunning Yasum*Malina-Set*Sky outfit, ours for just $1L. The top and shorts are each provided in Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes, plus you'll find an unpacker for the chain belt inside that holds the same size set. The outfit HUD and belt HUD each have 8 metals to choose from, so mix and match to your heart's content! I particularly love the details here, like the tiny pattern on the shorts, the suspenders that hold them up, and the way the front of the bra top is unclasped for a little more flirt factor.

I simply could not resist sharing the Yasum*Laina-Set*Moss dollarbie, whose name is as lovely as the lush green color. We receive the dress and panties in sizes for Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu bodies, with a HUD for the rear panel so we can select from solid, sheer, or lace as I've shown above. Did you notice the word "FEARLESS" on the right side of the hem? :) I also really like the way the shoulder straps are each sliding down a little, just enough to show how the snug fit of the dress is holding it up.

Next we see the Yasum*Nan-Dress*Denim, which is also hard to believe that we can enjoy at such a bargain! The dress has lots to day, as it is has writing both front and back, upper and lower. Many wise and inspiring words but the one that grabbed me was back right hip - "She has fire in her soul and grace in her heart" :) You probably already know what set of sizes I'm about to tell you this comes in, right? Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu body wearers are about to be very pleased if they visit soon.

Usually I find shades of yellow do not suit me when I'm wearing auburn hair, but the Yasum*Sofia-Set*Sun is a bold enough hue that I think it will be flattering with nearly any haircolor or skin tone! There are sizes for Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu each of the top and pants. We also find HUDs enclosed, one for the top with 6 metal colors each for the chains (neck and around breasts) with an "off" option for each, while the buttons HUD has 6 metal options for the pants. The styling of the top is sure to turn heads, so creative!

Just one more look for the evening - the playful Yasum*Latishy-Set*Wine. Its cropped halter top and harem style pants are each provided in Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing. Did you notice the cute bow on the waist? There are always so many special details on Yasum's clothing, and I truly haven't found anything quite like them in SL. 

It was a chaotic day, but my plans for tomorrow are finally solidified :) Took a while, LOL, but any healing journey is going to be made of many little steps like tomorrow. I won't be able to blog, but I will be back soon of course, and just in time for October and all the fun things that will mean in SL :) I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Palomma Plaza

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post comes from Palomma Plaza, where their free group (and tag "Doves Angel") will let you claim all the fantastic gifts you see. I've chosen two generous designers, Beauty Factory and Nala Design, to feature in this post :) As I've mentioned plenty, Palomma Plaza is a tribute to Palomma "Dove" Casanova who ran The Free Dove in the very same region and building, until her passing almost 4 years ago. She was beloved and well known for her kindness and generosity, so it is heartwarming to see her legacy continued. My link should give you a red arrow to between the two brands' locations in Palomma Plaza. 

First I've slipped into the playful .BF. Leila Outfit FATPACK gift from Beauty Factory. The top and jeans shorts are each provided in Legacy, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu sizes, and each includes a HUD to customize it. The top's HUD offers 33 colors each for the top, strap (stripe around the band), and buttons, while the jeans HUD has 16 textures for the jeans and 5 metals for the buttons and rivets. The jeans textures are really 8 denim hues each in solid or with hearts, giving us a fun variety for our distressed cutoffs. Our weather here is rather warm even in early fall, so I am still in a shorts mood :)

Another treat from Beauty Factory you can claim here is this flirty .BF. Emili Outfit FATPACK. It consists of the top, jeans skirt, panties, and chain accessory, which will each fit Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu, along with plenty of HUDs. The top HUD offers 36 colors each for the top in solids, 36 in a butterfly design, and the edges as well as 5 metals. Our panties HUD has 36 options each for panties and edges, then our chain HUD lets us choose from 36 colors apiece for 5 sections or 4 patterns for the entire chain set at once. I had so much fun playing with the HUDs, as you can guess, and I hope you do too :)

Over to the Nala Design display, I love our Gabriela Mini Dress gift! The straps that cross both front and back are a terrific touch, and the soft ruffling in the front makes it feel romantic. There are sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Kups, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Peach, Prima, Prima Petite, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, along with a HUD offering 14 pretty colors. Please note - if you add the bag to unpack it, your HUD is no-copy and will therefore not unpack (and this is the case for the next 2 gifts also) so you will need to manually unpack by rezzing it out and right clicking to copy to inventory. It makes more sense if you think of unpacking as copying to your inventory :) 

Next we see the cleverly designed Nala Design - Elika Mini Dress. Its shoulder straps are both tucked under the arms, making it feel like we've just shimmied into it in a hurry, and the left side of the skirt is gathered to show off a little more thigh. We receive Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Peach, Prima, Prima Petite, Reborn, and Waifu. The HUD (no-copy) has 12 solid colors for us to choose from, and they all look splendid on our satiny slip dress.

My final look of the evening is our Nala Design - Samy Mini Dress gift. It's got plenty of sex appeal with a bare back showing off slender horizontal stripes, and a particularly short hemline. There are sizes for Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Waifu bodies, plus a HUD with 14 colors to pick from. This HUD is no-copy also, so please unpack the traditional way while not attached to your avatar :) You can tell that I found this out the hard way, LOL, attaching and holding the cute shopping bag then clicking, then wondering where the HUD was in the folder...not there, so I had to pick these out of my trash and start over ;) I should know by now to always be suspicious of an item that has no copy permissions to begin with, lol, but I was eager to get into these beauties. 

I felt like several of the seven dwarves throughout the day, mostly Grumpy, Sleepy, Sneezy, and Dopey 😆. Honestly my anxiety support group helped, even if I didn't talk about the specific crap that was upsetting me. I think just the ability to chat with likeminded people and offer a tiny bit of input helped get me out of my funk. I did have a talk with the housemate earlier and got some things squared away, including accepting an apology that I am trusting was heartfelt and will lead to better behavior. The sneezes are less frequent, which helps the grumpiness go away ;) Dopey was just from brain fog caused by all the sneezing and wheezing, always a treat. I just saw on the Twisted hunt website that their End Game is open, so now I know what my weekend plans will be :) I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
