Exquisitely Twisted

Hiya everyone! Tonight we will be exploring more Fall 2017 Twisted Hunt prizes, bringing beauty to our homes and fingertips as well as our wardrobes. The Twisted Hunt is a free gridwide hunt that takes place twice a year, considered the hardest hunt in SL, and this round's theme is Victorian Gothic with a color of Burgundy Wine. The gently spinning cubes are that color, and many of the prizes feature it as well, some even with the same exact texture as the cube. There are plenty of treats from side hunts to discover as well, and many prizes contain male and female versions or are unisex for all to appreciate. That includes some terrific home furnishings, even skyboxes, so plenty of ways to enjoy the theme.


Sinfully Seddy has this beautiful Bitter Romance Gown and Parasol hiding in their cube for the ladies, and a suit and top hat for the gentlemen. The gown comes in sizes for Hourglass, Physique, Maitreya, TMP, and a standard avatar version, while the parasol has a hold pose and a resize script built in. I love the extra touches of the purple bodice with black lace overlay. I found that the prize from Fallen Arms: Rough goes very well with this look, it is the Craftian Monocle which has a purplish tinted lens and some playful tentacles holding it in place. 


Our next stop is ~KRAKT~ where you will find this Victoria Female Gift (as well as a male gift) hiding in their cube. The dress comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, while the shrug style jacket is in 4 fitmesh sizes (XS, S, M, L). Please excuse the transparency issue my new hair is causing, the jacket is solid across the shoulders and has that lovely black bow you see in the front. On the right you can see that the dress is striking without the jacket as well.


#bye has an alluring gift waiting for us, their Fall 2017 Twisted Hunt gown. It comes in standard mesh sizes plus a fitted version, along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. The version for Maitreya is named differently but I checked and it is the same gorgeous dress. I paired it with the hunt gift from Syren's Song, their Blood Stone Collar, a ruby or garnet-like heart held in place by black leather. It will be an ideal accessory for anything you decide to wear it with.


This photo will need to be clicked to see it full size, to fully appreciate the decor from Dreamscapes Art Gallery. This is their *Victoria* Fireplace & Picture, 4 pieces in all, consisting of the fireplace with a Land Impact of 3 whose fire can be clicked to turn on or off, picture with LI of 1, and two sconces with a LI of 2 each for a total of 8 LI. The set is rezzed out at once, if you are in edit mode (just right click anything and then choose edit from the pie menu, minimize the edit window and drag out your items from inventory) then you can move them as one intact piece to position them. Since they are copyable, you can rez out multiple sets and fill your entire home if you so choose.


One last look for the evening, this is our prize from Inevitable Madness called Twisted Victorian Nails. There are appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, Slink, and Vista, each offering 4 designs: silhouettes of a wolf, owl, or raven, and the ombre of black to burgundy to nearly white. Mix and match or choose your favorite of the moment, your nails will thank you for adorning them so richly.

Hair note of the night: Truth Hair has released their September VIP group gift, and it is so much fun! The name is Athena and there is a full set of color HUDs as with all the VIP gifts, I chose a redhead selection here. The stylist HUD lets you have both sides down and curly, or one pulled back into a braid, or even the full side swept back with that pretty plait. There are 3 wisps of bangs that can be turned on individually or all turned off at once, so there is quite a lot of variety happening in this exuberant hairdo.

I am a little slow tonight as I am not feeling my best and seem very easily distracted, so I will simply wrap this up with a wish for a wonderful day/evening and magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
