Hiya everyone! Tonight I am sharing some prizes from the Nevermore Winter Solstice Hunt, which runs until the 10th of January so you have over a week left to find their adorable snowy owls each holding a book which I'd like to think is a Harry Potter book ;) Hedwig would be pleased! There are no hints on the website but many stores have a hint giver at the sign. Let's have a look at some of the winter themed items to be found.
First we have a gorgeous gift from #2 *GLITTER*, and if you do the hunt in order they will skip you past this one which must not have been ready right away...but I assure you, the gift is there (big hint, there's a Rezology affiliate store across the way that is also owned by them and you really ought to check there!) and contains Grace Roses Gown. She includes the gown in 5 sizes, a hoop with web, roses & pearls on it, a flexi tulle scarf, and the roses applicator for your chest. The gown itself is elegant on its own, all these extra touches just add to that. The scarf in particular adds some dramatic movement.
Prize #7 from Zalea is this adorable Skater Dress in glittery red with a playful white skirt. It comes in 3 simple sizes for Slink, Maitreya, or standard fitmesh, and I had no trouble at all with the standard size. Such a lovely gift!
Next we have our prize from SexicalMoi, #16 in the hunt, and their provocative Rouge Laced Dress. It comes with mesh skirt prims in standard sizes, system layer top and bottoms, and appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, and Omega. I accessorized with the hunt prize #10 from Semi-Precious, who are offering us this appealing crystal necklace and earrings in Bloodstone. I really like the red specks among the green of the stone.
This terrific prize is from Ayva's Attic and is #18, their Lacey Winter Coat. I love the subtle checked pattern and the lace trim at the hem, and the buttons and bows are such sweet touches. I feel warm and snuggly just looking at it! :)
This can actually serve as my nail note of the night, not a hunt prize but a group gift from Hello Dave. Maia has been always been exceptionally generous to us and this month has been rather amazing! The advent calendar gifts daily for the first 3+ weeks and now two weekly gifts on the 28th and 30th, just boggles my mind :) And these are terrific quality gifts too, that is important. Today's HUD is the 30th of December gift and has 6 different colors to choose from at the triangle base. There's some pretty glitter hiding in that wedge too, you'll notice.
It's almost time to ring in the new year here, so I've got to get my buns in gear here and hurry...I wish all of you a happy, healthy, special 2016 filled with all the best!! New year, new start, fresh chances to make it an outstanding year. Magical magpie hugs to all of you!!

Hiya everyone! I stumbled upon a sign in a store for the Midwinter Fair and decided to visit on a whim, and so glad I did because I found some lovely items including some free gifts to share :) I'm afraid I am doing it again, showing you things that are only available for a limited amount of remaining time, and I apologize for that. The Midwinter Fair is wrapping up tomorrow, the 31st, so if you haven't been yet I urge you to hurry. There are new releases, sales, gachas, and gifts can be found scattered among all those areas.
I found lots of beautiful jewelry in the gifts I picked up, the first one I'm showing is this Princess Necklace from *MIRUS*. The colors are stunning, and there is a lot going on with this detailed style with the bold horns and studs balanced by the delicate chains and cross.
If you need a pretty pair of winter earrings, look no further than the Hopscotch stall where you will find this lovely gift :) They are big enough to show details like glimmers of icy blue among the white.
I certainly expected the midwinter theme to include plenty of snowflakes, and was not disappointed with the creative ways they have been interpreted to jewelry. This is the gift from Glamorous Sin, a pale gold necklace artfully crafted with multiple sizes of snowflakes and gorgeous marquis cut gems that look to be amethysts.
For a different take on a snowflake necklace, please visit the OXIDE stand for this generous free gift. A single snowflake in a deeper shade of gold, with adornment in the center for a bit of sparkle.
If you are wondering about what I was wearing while showing these off, here is a better look at the full ensemble, a $1L hunt prize from Fi's Creations. The hunt is the amusingly named Same Ol' Sh*t Different Year, and runs until the 16th so you have plenty of time to explore their blog and pick up the prizes you like. Fi's is #3 in the hunt, and includes the top/skirt as one mesh piece in several sizes along with the coordinated legwarmers in system layers. They are designed to stop above mesh feet it seems, no interference with my Slinks, and the outfit looks great without them too.
No nail note tonight as I just went with the Slink basic HUD, a simple French manicure from their default choices. I hope this post finds you all doing well, having a nice day/evening, and magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! I got a group notice last night (from Kamiri) informing me about the XMAS STATION gifts for the Maitreya Gifts, Sales and News group (MGSN) all waiting under a Christmas tree, 25 in all. Despite not having a Maitreya body, or any mesh body for that matter, I headed there to see what was there, and I am so glad I did! I found plenty of presents to work with the classic avatar as well as mesh bodies, and my Slink feet and hands weren't neglected either. Just join their free group by clicking one of the many signs near the tree, and here's a glimpse of what you can find...
My first look is a dress from It's Gau, their Daiana Gold Dress, which comes in 5 standard sizes plus a fitmesh version, along with a system layer for the lace top beneath (neckline and sleeves) with appliers for TMP, Omega, and a multi HUD for Slink, Belleza, and Maitreya. Plenty of options there for a wide range of mesh bodies :)
I love this gift, and want to wear it all winter! This gorgeous coatdress and matching shoes are from Desire, called Elegant White and Black Coat. Details always catch my attention, like the laced up back that would certainly create the lovely silhouette you see from the front. The shoes fit my Slink high feet perfectly, and I know that size works for a few other feet too.
This lovely dress is from Busty Boutique, and comes in a Maitreya fitted mesh size that as you can see, works well with my regular shape which usually takes a S or M size mesh. Also included, those pretty black heels!
Angel Jewelry has placed a fantastic gift under the tree for us, a complete outfit! This includes the one piece mesh outfit (jumpsuit and cropped jacket attached) in standard sizes, plus duo pair stilettos in red, two different necklaces (both shown), and the earrings shown too. I love the pleats at the end of the pant legs, they just add a little something extra.
I told myself that I wasn't going to blog any more items specifically for Christmas, so I guess I need to put myself on the naughty list but I just couldn't resist. This is our gift from TREND, their Fluffy Knit Christmas Set "Naughty" in Green, and includes the top and skirt each in standard fitmesh sizes and Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink sizes. My shoes are another great present from beneath the tree, this time from ROC. They include Slink and Maitreya sizes, and a HUD for 12 color options.
Nail note of the night: La Boheme has a gift under the tree as well, their LB Christmas Spirit nails in 10 lovely colors and 3 HUDs for Slink, Omega, and Maitreya. You know I am a fan of theirs so I was excited to see that they were a part of this event too.
Busy evening, I got my toe checked out and it is healing well but I'll still be taping it and resting it as much as possible. Doctor's orders :) Evening appointments can really throw off my day, but I'm glad to be here and it's all good. Hope you are all having a nice day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! I went to the Christmas Under The Tree Event at Scratch N Post finally, and there are plenty of wonderful free gifts there for everyone, no group needed. The event started on the 24th and ends on the 31st, just click all the gifts under the Christmas tree right there where you land. There were some gifts labeled for men, and I found out the hard way while trying on others (sweaters) that they were for men too ;) Plenty of decor too, like several cute pillows and snow scenes. But you know me, let's have a look at some clothing!
First we have some great tops from [RUBY] along with a pair of casual leggings from her as well. The tops include both the wine and black in the same gift, in several sizes, and the leggings are in the usual sizes as well. The beautiful choker is also found in a present under the tree, from {MCL} which stands for Mad Cat Lady. I really like how subtle it is, yet close up it is very intricate.
For some cozy warm sweaters, be sure to find the gifts from {rain.drop} under the tree, inside you will find the 2 tones rust sweater I'm wearing on the left and the gold sweater shown on the right, above. They definitely look perfect for chilly weather, or snuggling with someone special :)
It's no secret that I'm a fan of Hello Kitty, so this adorable nightshirt with her cheerful face and Boo-Boo Kitty on it made me giggle. The style is very flattering, and you will find not only the standard mesh sizes in the gift but a pair of matching slippers, not shown.
If you need something for perhaps a last minute party, or just want something sexy to wear during this season of fun, how about this stunner from BlackRain? Their black and white chevron mini dress is an eye-catching choice and accentuates your curves deliciously.
Another dazzler in black and white can be found in one of the many gifts under the tree from [RUBY], this one being called Ruby's Cube - Poisoned Apple. This sexy halter is very short, but not skin tight, and the pattern is just mesmerizing. She has some other dresses for us under the tree, along with a jumpsuit and the goodies from the first photo.
Nail note of the night: I wanted something with a black option, so I chose an alaskametro Marketplace freebie, their Basic Pack Tester. It works for Slink, Omega, Maitreya, and Eve, so should suit all of your needs along with having some great neutrals plus a couple pops of color to choose from.
Mondays are just so fun, aren't they? *smirk* Don't worry, it's almost Tuesday and another holiday is just a few days away so it's all good. Magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! I have been trying to decide what to share with you for the last few days of the month, as the current hunts are mainly ending soon and the new ones haven't begun yet for the most part, but I finally chose the Jolify Your Body Hunt, an Apply Your Body hunt. Before you say, "but Dawn, Christmas is over!", let me stress that the prizes aren't all strictly for Christmas even if the name sounds it, there are a lot of snowflakes that suit winter just fine and we've got ourselves a few months left of that :) The hunt does end in a few days though, so you'll want to pick up your favorite prizes as soon as possible.
While I wound up focusing on the nails when it came to photos, this dress is probably my favorite of the clothing items in the hunt. This lovely Snow Gown is the prize from JLZ Fashion and is provided in standard mesh sizes along with versions for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink. How gorgeous is that texture, with the snowflakes gracing one side and the sparkly looking fabric? Plus I never get tired of looking at that exquisite back. This is prize #9 in the hunt path.
One very consistent part of these hunts is the nails, since they do involve mesh hands and appliers. On the left we have the prize from LIVIA, their Winter Snowflake Nails, which are 8 designs on a HUD that works for Slink and Omega. I was wearing the design on the ring finger on all nails in the gown photo :) Now on the right, you can see our gift from Hello Dave, #1 in the hunt, and their Slink/Omega HUD with 6 pretty designs also filled with snowflakes.
Another pair of nail prizes in this photo, on the left we have the Dark Snow Nails from Chu, who are #11 in the hunt. They are for Slink only and feature 4 textures, two with gold flakes and two with white. It's an interesting contrast to the paler background shades on the right, from the Dust Bunnies prize #12. They offer 4 designs as well, two darker snowflakes and two lighter ones.
Our last image of the day is all one prize, two sets from La Boheme who are #4 in the hunt. On the left we have the LB Christmas Bough Blue, on the right the same in Yellow, each with 10 shades of nail base for the French manicure style. I think the one on my pinky or ring finger on the left is the best match for my skin tone, but sometimes I wear a slightly paler or pinker base from their HUDs. You can also see the tiny lines of dots on the base of the nails, very subtle and lovely :)
Well I am grateful for a relaxing weekend, and I hope you have all enjoyed yours as well. Magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! I visited the Designer Showcase finally, and this round (ending soon, the 28th, so hurry!!) has some excellent deals for you to enjoy along with a slew of fun group gifts. The group is free to join, and you can find some of the gifts at the individual displays (Entice and LivGlam are two with gifts at their setups) and LivGlam has several gifts under the tree in the middle. Now one thing I appreciate about LivGlam is that they usually provide HUDs with various texture choices for their outfits. Versatility makes me happy :) So let's have a look or several, shall we?
This lovely dress is called [LG] Living in Danger, and comes with the usual mesh sizes along with a HUD for 5 texture choices. Naturally as a bird person I am drawn to the peacock feather pattern, but the abstract is very pretty as well. The shape of this style is unusual and I do like unique things :)
Another beautiful gift from LivGlam is this Feel Right dress from their fall 2014 collection. The HUD provided has 3 textures for the top, so I decided to go ahead and show you all 3. Don't even ask me to choose a favorite, I changed my mind a dozen times while taking these photos on which one I like best! That sexy low neckline makes even my modestly bosomed avatar look curvy, so flattering.
Need a little more color in your wardrobe? This gift from LivGlam is Tiger in the Night, and is a separate top and skirt with several mesh sizes for each. The HUD changes the color of both at once, 3 buttons which result in either combo shown, or a monochrome black/grey version if you prefer. I myself am enjoying the dazzling splashes of color, along with the golden chains for straps.
If you want to go somewhere wintry in SL and need something eye-catching to wear, I highly recommend LivGlam's gift called Liberty Street. There are 6 textures to choose from on this HUD, 2 colors for each of 3 patterns so I am showing you an example from each pattern. I love the style of this one, from the cute bow to the plush faux fur collar. (Yes, in my mind it is faux, LOL, no matter what was intended by the designer!)
My nail note of the night is also a Designer Showcase group gift, this one being from Entice and called Possession Nails HUDs in Solids. There are 7 colors with a very subtle pattern, quite lovely and versatile.
I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend, perhaps relaxing after some busy days...I am still resting my injured foot and randomly smiling over the new memories made the past few days. Even the ones that wouldn't normally be considered good can still be amusing if you were in the right company :) Magical magpie hugs to all!!

Hiya everyone! I hope this finds you all having a wonderful Christmas Eve night or Christmas morning, depending on where you may be and when you may get a chance to read this :) I spent a few hours longer than anticipated with family, so I'm sure you'll all forgive me for running late tonight with such a good excuse. Now if you're like me, sometimes you don't want to deal with shopping in person so a great alternative is online shopping...for SL, that equates to the Marketplace. It really is like Amazon for avis! :) I put together 3 quick looks for the holiday from there, so if you need a last-minute holiday look then I hope I can help!
First we have a one-shoulder dress from DB, with a cheery pattern of ornaments all around. I like the pretty angel up by the shoulder, and the snowflake near the hem. This is completely free on the marketplace and comes in 5 sizes.
The red and white makes this dress suitable for Christmas, but the butterflies to me feel more like a year-round style. It's labeled on the marketplace as a Christmas gift though, free from ARSENIC*byC&T, so who am I to argue? :) You will receive not only the lovely dress in several sizes, but those adorable matching shoes too, all for the low low price of...free! I simply couldn't resist it.
If you need something elegant that fits into any budget, I recommend this gorgeous gift from Sharodie's Design. I love the styling, and you get a great fit with 5 sizes of dress to choose from and a pair of system layer gloves with a Slink applier included. I decided to accessorize it with a necklace from O.W. Dreams, a simple beaded necklace in the ideal colors for this gown. Both are free gifts on the marketplace.
Nail note of the night: same as last night, I went with the [Critter] Slink HUD from *pulcino*, a fantastic lucky board prize. It really does make me feel lucky having it in my inventory and for free no less :)
Tomorrow, technically now today (Friday, Christmas Day) is another busy one for me, I'll be out all day/evening so I might just pop in with a quick post if there is time. Just in case, I will wish all of you a very joyous, Merry Christmas, if you celebrate :) If not, I wish you a fun Friday and the start to a pleasurable weekend. Magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! I have some prizes to show you from my longtime favorite seasonal hunt (seasonal as in 4 times a year, one for each season), the Kiyomizu Hunt. It's time for their winter round, which just started on the 21st and runs until the 10th of January. Since there is no blog with landmarks, my best advice is to head to the Kiyomizu Mall and click one of the floating ghosts (some are found outside Milky Way store) and go to the website it takes you too. It's a personalized list of what you have and haven't found along with all the slurls of the ones you still need. I usually start by perusing the mall itself, picking up all the cute ninja cats in each store there. Here is a glimpse at some of what I got from those generous kitties...
First we have a terrific sweater dress from M*Motion, which you receive in 5 sizes plus a fitted mesh scarf, shown on the left. I wanted you to see on the right what it looks like without, just in case you prefer it that way. I love the pockets and the traditional knit design. This is prize #3 in the hunt.
Another wonderful sweater dress can be found in the prize from **milky way, who are #11 in the hunt and I think of them as a flagship store for the mall since their main store is there. This Winter Set includes the long sweater/jacket combo in small and medium, the comfy matching boots in XS, S/M, and L sizes, and the separate scarf which has a lovely drape in the back too. The little details make me smile here, like the bright buttons on the coat both front and back. The boots are for default avatar feet, by the way.
That's right, another sweater to enjoy! This is from cat #26 [Le muguet] and is their Knit Long Cardigan in 5 sizes. You can just barely see there is a grey or dark green layer at the bottom beneath, peeking out a bit. I'd still like to pair this with some nice tights or leggings, nothing fancy needed. Did you notice the buttons? Look closely, there are tiny reindeer on each one :)
Our last look of the night is not a sweater, hehe, but rather a strapless jumpsuit with a few large snowflakes gracing it and an attached belt. This is our gift from M&A who are #27, and we receive 5 sizes of it for a great fit.
Nail note of the night: I went with a set I'd already blogged before, but deserve another look, the [Critter] set by *pulcino*. 10 bright and cheery colors to choose from, each with a thin line down the center.
This holiday season is in full swing in my household, and I just spent a few hours working on some crab cakes for Christmas Eve. This is my 4th year of making them since my grandpa passed away, his unique recipe, and because of that I may be the only person to get emotional over frying crab cakes, hehe. So I wish all of you a beautiful day/night, and send festively magical magpie hugs to each and every one of you :)

Hiya everyone! As the holidays approach faster and faster, I am quite happy to be able to share some Wash Cart Sale bargains with you, and some Advent gifts to reward yourself for saving all that money :) Nothing at the cart sale is over $10L and there's a huge selection, so visit before January 6th and you can stock up on all your favorites.
First the cart sale bargains :) I am wearing the Houndstooth Dress w/ HUD from The Little Bat, and I am a big fan of theirs so it didn't surprise me that they have such a pretty dress with a bit of an edge on offer, and $10L would be a startlingly low price if not for the Cart Sale. The HUD has 8 color choices for the skirt, each with the black houndstooth pattern, and I chose to show you the red and the green because of my shoes. The adorable GingerB Black-Xmas shoes for Slink high by Lindy have lovely seasonal bows adorning them, just $10L for this attractive pair of heels.
Advent calendar time! We are almost running out of days on those calendars, where did the month go? This lovely dress is from *SOIR* and is their Luna Cocktail Dress in Black. Standard mesh sizes are included, and it's a lot more than just a basic black dress with its subtle texture and asymmetrical hemline. No group needed for this calendar.
Oooohh, isn't this an exquisite gift? Independent Objects is part of a trio of stores all offering Advent gifts in a winter wonderland, just join their free group and take the TP pad up to the beautiful snowy area and find today's gifts. The one from *IO* contains this gorgeous Liliana Fairy Outfit with its mesh dress in several sizes, plus the chest and leg attachments and the amazing wings. If you prefer a more simple look, you can wear just the dress, and you can see how that looks on the right. I love it either way, just depends on where you're going and what mood you might be in.
This may be the cutest Christmas outfit I've seen in ages, and all you have to do is join a free group to be able to claim this! Hurry though, it's the Roots & Wings advent gift for the 21st so it's hard to say how long before it gets changed out. This is called Rudolph Fuschia Outfit, and is packed with everything you need...the dress comes in 5 fitmesh sizes plus versions for Belleza, Slink, Slink Hourglass, and Maitreya. The stockings & heels are for classic avatar feet and come in 5 sizes each, left and right, and also included are the necklace and antlers. How sweet are those sleigh bells on the choker, and Rudolph's cheery little face on the antlers? :) I took this opportunity to show you two other Advent gifts I have been wearing all post, one of which would be the eyes from Inkheart. They are called Summer Dream Eyes in Mist, and they come in system and mesh versions with 3 sizes each. The group tag is needed but it is free to join, and there are group gifts near the entrance along with several lucky balloons around the store. My nails are a gorgeous set from Hello Dave, another free group tag is needed to claim these but OMG they are so well worth that! These are simply called the day 22 Advent gift, and come with the version I'm showing you (5 slightly different designs in pink with snowflakes) along with a left and right HUD with words on them...across your nails it will spell out "merry and bright".
The next few days are going to be super busy for me, so I haven't quite figured out my blogging schedule yet. My online time will be limited and I probably won't be able to post earlier to provide time for you to pick up Advent gifts, so I may focus on other things if I can squeeze in some posts :) I love the holidays, and adore my family, so it's all good things and I'm looking forward to it all even if I am a bit sad to blog less for a few days. So please stay tuned, and magical magpie hugs to all!

Christmas is really sneaking up on me, but I was sure to set aside some time to share some bargains and gifts with all of you :) The bargains can be found at the Wash Cart Sale, where nothing is over $10L and there are dozens of carts filled with a huge variety of clothing, decor, and more. The gifts I mentioned are, not surprisingly, Advent calendar gifts from across the grid. So let's have a peek, shall we?
For today's post I selected some very fun casual outfits from Daisy's Closet and their cart at the Wash Cart sale. These are Martha Outfit Hearts on the left, and Let It Snow Outfit Blue on the right, each of which are available in other colors/styles for the same incredible price of $10L. Each outfit comes with a mesh shirt, system layer pants/capris, and appliers for those bottoms in Slink, Maitreya, and Omega. Martha comes with sneakers for the default avatar feet, while Let It Snow comes with wintry boots also for default feet. Plenty more to see at their cart too, a lovely selection of similar outfits. You might be admiring my adorable decorations to my right, well if so I can't blame you but I can direct you to the Dixie Dandelion cart where you can pick up your very own for just $10L each. I can't resist that little tail poking out of the top left stocking! He is part of DD Woodland Puppy Socks Black, and his little brown and white friends are in the Silver version. There are many other bargains waiting for you on that cart, these two just particularly touched my heart.
Another "do not miss" cart is the one for Mystic Dragon Designs, where you will find some great fashions for men and women. On the left above I am wearing their Butterfly Dreams outfit, which is a single mesh piece in several sizes for your convenience. Center and right, you can see the very pretty Eliora Dress which is also just $10L on their cart. The straps on the back were too intriguing not to share, and I love the snowflake pattern.
There are 2 gifts waiting for you in the #21 on the tree at Purple Candy, and this My Season Aqua Mesh Dress is one of them. I am such a fan of this style, it's flirty yet still dressy enough for a club or special party. No group needed for this, by the way :) The dress comes in standard mesh sizes plus a "boob version" of each, and an applier is included for several types of boobs.
Back to casual for the final look of the day, this is one of the two Advent calendar gifts available today at Emerald Couture. EC Fall Blossom is a full outfit, consisting of the asymmetrical mesh blouse you see in standard fitmesh sizes along with a regular and a loose fit for each Slink and Maitreya. The boots are for classic avatar feet, and the tights are a system tattoo layer plus appliers for Maitreya, Belleza and Omega. A wonderfully complete outfit, in a gorgeous color! I also included a better look at the eyes I am wearing today, the Advent gift from Inkheart called Radiance Eyes in Shadows. They come in system and mesh versions, 3 sizes each, and all prior gifts are still available for group members (free to join) to click.
I went with the basic Slink nail HUD again for versatility and to save time, hehe, because goodness knows if I started playing with my nails I would have been there all day ;) My day will include double checking a grocery list for Christmas Eve cooking, and some rest would be good too. I hope Monday is kind to all of you, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
