Hiya everyone! For tonight's blog, I decided to explore the Marketplace to see what new offerings I could find, and wound up in the jewelry department so we can add some special touches to our favorite outfits. Speaking of outfits, I am wearing a top and skirt from Entice in all of tonight's photos that you can purchase at the ULTRA event until the 8th of December. As usual it is a terrific style with very versatile fatpacks available. I am also enjoying some lipstick from LIVIA, a 4Mesh November exclusive set of a dozen fantastic shades. We all deserve to treat ourselves from time to time, and both events along with marketplace shopping are such fun ways to do so.
The sweater seen here is the Entice - Harvest Moon Sweater and I am wearing one of the colors from the Lights fatpack. There is also a Darks fatpack, each contain 10 colors for $450L or you can purchase 8 individual colors for $150L each. There are 2 bonus shades for each fatpack only, via HUD, so I am a big fan of the fatpacks. There are sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Freya, so these are quite mesh body friendly. The Harvest Moon Skirt comes in the same three mesh sizes, and 8 individual colors for $150L each or the fatpack with 2 bonus colors for a total of 10 via HUD, $450L. The mainstore link is in my right hand sidebar, and the event location is in my ending credits. As for my earrings, they are a free gift on the Marketplace from Spider Tree Designs, bold hoops with fun spiraling branches on this elegant tree. It is easy to see why I chose an updo today, so I could show off earrings to their fullest beauty.
I changed colors of both the Harvest Moon Sweater and the Skirt from Entice, since I wanted earth tones to complement this generous marketplace gift from Tryska Moon. It is called Golden with Chocolate Diamonds Earrings and Choker, and you can see the gorgeous chocolate diamond from the choker up close in the inset. I feel rather decadent, with the color of a delicious treat combined with a sparkly gemstone! You can spoil yourself with this jewelry set for free too, just by visiting the marketplace.
Another couple of clicks on the respective HUDs brought two more colors for my clothing, and I chose the skirt color specifically to highlight my bracelet. That is another great marketplace gift, courtesy of AvaWay and called Gift Bracelet Amethist. Rows and rows of pretty pinkish purplish gems form a beautiful bangle that will light up any outfit you choose to pair it with.
These striking earrings are the C&C April (Sugilite/Turquoise) Gift on the marketplace, so the stones are a pretty mixture of purple and teal, and I find the shape of these earrings to be very flattering too. I smiled as soon as I put them on, and if they make you happy then please pick them up on the marketplace for free. This is a good time to mention that I recommend leaving reviews too, yes even for free gifts, to encourage the designers and let them know you appreciate what they do.
Here we have the promised look at these amazing lipsticks from LIVIA named Bianca, which you can pick up exclusively at the 4Mesh November event, until December 11th. There are several appliers available for just $169L each: Catwa, Lelutka, Fiore, Genesis 3.0, and an Omega/Tattoo pack (I am using the Omega here on my GA.EG head). There are 12 shimmery shades to choose from, reds and oranges and pinks, all with a festive bit of shine that will really highlight your pretty smile.
My weekend plans are continuing to come together nicely, and I can see that it is going to be very busy so that might affect my blogging a little bit. We shall see what happens :) Planning for a second Thanksgiving makes me feel like a hobbit with second breakfast, only bigger, LOL! I think I'll just call it a Friendsgiving even if it is family and friends. I hope you are all having a marvelous day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have an assortment of treats to share, including free gifts (various groups) and special offers, and I do believe in variety being the spice of Second Life as well as first life. So the first stop at Bliss involves 3 groups that are all free to join, and another stop is an event where you can purchase some truly lovely outfits, especially the look from Entice I am sharing. The final destination brings a gift for the Third Life group, just $10L to join with many enjoyable benefits including information on sales and new releases in addition to many gifts. Let's spice up our week!
This is a reward for being a part of the Bliss store group, and it is called Sheena. She includes the top and skirt each in sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, and Slink Physique. There is also a HUD for each that offers 8 denim shades to mix and match, which is always a fun touch. I've always been fond of denim, and having it in different colors just adds to the appeal since you can create a whole new look with the tap of a button or two. The Bliss group is free to join, and the store is located on the Wash sim which you should recognize for their regular cart sales ♥ which I am a longtime fan of.
Next we have another gift from Bliss, this time for the Fitmesh Fanatics group (free to join), and it is called Natalya. There are sizes provided for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, and Slink Physique, with a color HUD that offers 10 attractive choices. I was intrigued by the pattern of the fabric, and the strapless style is made even more alluring by the knot on the side that exposes even more thigh.
Maybe you are in the mood for a more casual look, or have an athletic endeavor planned, then you definitely need to snag this FabFree group gift from Bliss called Sami! It is a tank top and shorts in heathered textures, sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP each. There are also color HUDs for each, 6 choices to mix or match to your heart's content. On the right I am actually wearing blue on the top and grey on the shorts, but I think my windlight settings and brighter background tonight made them look almost the same. I love the little drawstring bow on the front of the shorts, as I cannot help but notice cute details.
Now I would like to whisk you to the Irish countryside, by way of the Designer Showcase event where Entice is offering the top, skirt, and boots I am enjoying here. The top is their Entice - Ireland's Call Sweater, offered in sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique, 8 individual colors for $99L each or the fatpack with 2 bonus colors (yes, 10 total, all via HUD) for $349L. The Ireland's Call Skirt is the same great deal in the same sizes, 8 plaids for $99L each or the fatpack with 2 bonus versions for $349L. As for the boots, they are called Ireland's Call Boots and you will find the full fatpack for sale too, for just $150L with all 10 colors included on a handy HUD. Don't worry, green is one of the choices of colors for each, I was just feeling a bit rebellious I guess ;) It still has Irish flair without being a typical color, but of course looks lovely in emerald as well. The link in the ending credits is your limo directly to the event, and the mainstore of Entice is always linked in my right sidebar.
Next we have another THIRD LIFE group gift, the Krystal Dress from Sweet Desire. This sexy little number comes in sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. There is also a HUD with 20 different colors to pick from, so you can change this to suit any mood. The more I look at it, the more I realize it would look great with a simple t-shirt layered beneath for modesty if you are going to a non-adult sim. Since it is a solid color dress, maybe a fun print on a t-shirt would be a nice touch. The back reminds me of a ladder, the way it matches the front really caught my eye. Just $10L to join the Third Life group, and then this and many other gifts are yours to claim for free.
It is hard to believe that December is almost here, and that will mean lots of fun things to share from Advent calendars and a new batch of gridwide hunts. It is always important to have things to look forward to :) Meanwhile I hope you are all having a great day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I will be sharing a few more group gifts for the THIRD LIFE [Frees, Gifts & Hunts] group, which you can join for a mere $10L fee. So many groups these days have much higher price tags for joining, but this seems like a deterrent to spammers which is understandable. The group's website is very helpful in finding out who currently has group gifts for us, and there are offers for the guys as well as the ladies. Well, let's dive in and see some more gifts...
This is one of several gifts you can find at AmAzINg CrEaTiOnS, and it is an exclusive offer so you can only get this by being a member of the Third Life group. It is included in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. The pattern is like a knit basket weave, topped by pretty denim, a great combination.
Another gift from AmAzINg CrEaTiOnS is this beautiful Formal Dress, in a fun animal print accented with black on the bodice and crisscrossed straps in the back. There are 8 fitmesh sizes provided, for standard as well as Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink. That thigh high slit is a fantastic detail too.
One more AmAzINg CrEaTiOnS gift for the ladies, this Off Shoulder Dress comes in what I call the lucky 13 of mesh sizes: 5 standard, 5 fitmesh, Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink. There are so many fun possibilities here, since it would pair just as well with high boots as with strappy heels and your favorite jewelry set. For winter you can add tights too. You will also find 2 mens' gifts inside this generous store's Third Life gift, so be sure to tell your favorite male avatars.
This next gift captured the imagination of my bird-loving soul, so many thanks to FlowerDreams for their Fairy Tale Green dress. It includes system layers plus appliers for Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza, and the fantastic feather skirt has a built in resizer so you can adjust it if needed. I can't decide if I look most like a conure, a parakeet (budgie), or maybe a sweet little parrotlet...they are definitely elegant feathers though.
For my last look, I am enjoying the Suna Design gift called Peace, provided in Omega and Maitreya appliers so just for mesh bodies. The top is a bit revealing, but can be layered over something if you prefer (or under, if you slip a mesh sweater on) and the pants have several peace symbols adorning them as well. This is a fun outfit for exploring the grid looking for bargains or group gifts ;) There are plenty of activities in SL that are well suited to casual clothing and I tend to gravitate towards those lately.
It was a fairly quiet day here, which is good since I am preparing for an extra busy weekend with a houseguest, a second Thanksgiving, and another visitor for bonus fun :) It will probably be a chaotic kind of fun, and the plans are coming together nicely. I hope all of you are having a great day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some group gifts to share, the group is called THIRD LIFE [Frees, Hunts & Gifts] and it has a modest $10L joining fee. The group notices feature information on sales and other happenings in SL, and the group tag allows you to claim many free gifts across the grid. Be sure to check out their website for more information. Meanwhile I am pleased to show you a few of the gifts I picked up immediately after joining this morning.
This first outfit is a Third Life group gift from [Marquesse] called Flora Dress Orange. It includes appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, Slink, and TMP as well as system layers, along with the skirt panel in standard mesh sizes. It even comes with the matching shoes for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink, and TMP feet. I love the way the shoes have a bow that matches the floral pattern perfectly, and that the flowers in the pattern are autumn colors so it doesn't give an automatic "spring = flowers" feeling. Actually this seems like it will look terrific no matter what season it is!
Petry Model Store is offering this adorable Dress KYZ as their Third Life group gift, in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Werwolf. It also includes a handy HUD with 20 different textures (solids and prints) each for the top, skirt, and ruffle at the edge of the skirt. Match them all the same, use a different one for each, you can get creative or keep things simple. The style is a fun one with those openings in the front, yet it covers everything we need it to for wearing out and about.
This comfy cozy looking Fayna Outfit is from Nala Design, and yes it is another Third Life group gift for us to enjoy. It starts with the tied top in standard mesh sizes plus Hourglass and Physique versions, and continues with the ripped jeans in Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine versions. Also inside you will find the matching heels for Slink High feet. They all look wonderful together, and yet I might have some other ideas for mixing and matching with other wardrobe essentials too.
I also visited The Best Of Me, who are offering several different group gifts including this Third Life gift of the Talya Suit in Red, while other groups can receive it in various colors. This comes in system layers and an Omega applier, so classic and most mesh bodies can appreciate this sexy style. Sometimes I cannot tell if a suit is meant as a swimsuit or a bodysuit, I must admit, but some seem like they could double as both like this one.
My final look for the evening is courtesy of Ghostyss, just wear your Third Life group tag to be able to claim their Stella Bra and Skirt. Each is included in sizes for Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, Maitreya, and TMP, and I am realizing now that the top is even more sheer than I initially noticed. The combination of pale blue and black is both strong and soft, and the lace adds a feminine touch as well.
It was a quiet, chilly day here, and I am still loving my new Truth hair from Uber as you can see. I hope you have all enjoyed your weekend, and are having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have a few treats from a new hunt that just started, the Sexy Christmas Hunt which is a gridwide $1L hunt. You will be looking for the word SEXY in red, and when you find it you just pay it a single linden to claim your prize. Many of these stores are taking part in other hunts as well, so be sure to peek at the other signs to see what else grabs your attention. This particular hunt just started today (November 25th) and runs until December 25th, so i am pleased to show you these prizes nice and early to give you plenty of time to get into the holiday spirit. I spent several hours on Thursday listening to Christmas music, so I'm ready! Also featured tonight are some amazing lipsticks from LIVIA, found exclusively at Appliqué. Details on that are after the final photo, where you will see closeups of my luscious lippies.
For my first look, I have a glittery mini dress from #bye that will brighten your holiday plans in style. It is simply called The Sexy Christmas Hunt dress, and for just $1L you will receive it in standard fitmesh sizes plus Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. The halter top and lace trim on the skirt are slightly sheer, to make this an even more alluring style.
If you are enjoying the idea of a classic red, but were looking for more of a formal gown, look no further than Waffles. Their prize is this stunning *WW* Sexy Christmas Gown Flame Crepe. It includes standard mesh sizes along with Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP fits. The shadowing is terrific, really showing off the way the fabric drapes into a slight train in the back. This is an elegant look both coming and going, and such a bargain at just $1L for finding that hidden word SEXY. You will want to use the teleporter to visit the Womens floor to find this prize.
Next we have this strappy Kristy Dress from Sin Original, tucked safely inside their SEXY hunt object. It is included in sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP, as well as standard mesh sizing. The delicate design and sheer extra layer on the skirt add feminine touches, while the straps give it a fun edge.
This gift from ~MystRie~ absolutely says Christmas, and definitely fits the Sexy theme as well :) It is their Sexy Christmas Hunt Prize and for that single linden you will receive the top and skirt each in Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, eBody, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and a fitted mesh size (the skirt for Physique didn't seem to be in mine so I am wearing a different size) and the matching garters include resize scripts. I feel like a fun Christmas present, wrapped in seasonal stripes and lace.
For my final look of the night, I am delighted to share a closer look at the LIVIA::Amel Lipstick which is their Appliqué exclusive offering for this round. There are Catwa, Lelutka, Omega, and tattoo layer sets available for just $149L each, and they include a generous dozen different shades. With almost an ombre effect lighter in the center and darker towards the outside, these colors have great depth to them and will really flatter your smile (or pout) in plenty of choices of hue.
Hair note of the night: I have very little self control when it comes to Truth Hair, as is well documented right here each night, and audibly gasped (Xan can vouch for that, poor guy LOL) when I saw the photo of their new Uber release. It is called Farryn and I was lucky enough to get into the cam shopping sim next door, and picked up the redheads pack. The event opens on the 25th of each month, so it falling on a weekend when SL traffic is higher anyway is a bit unfortunate, but I wish you all the best of luck getting in if you are interested. I also have been taking advantage of their Black Friday sale at the mainstore, so I am pretty much in hair heaven this weekend.
The indoor farmers market I visit each Saturday was so packed earlier, that might have been the most crowded I've seen it in the 4+ years it has been open. Small Business Saturday might have had something to do with it, but I'd like to think it is also the high quality of the foods offered there. I didn't manage to get any sleep before going, so you'd better believe I got a nice long nap this afternoon. I don't even need to leave the house Sunday, so it should be peaceful. I hope you're all having a fantastic weekend, magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Hiya everyone! I am back to blogging after a couple of days off for Thanksgiving, and I'm really excited to share a new fishing set from Sn@tch called Fish 4 This - Baby It's Cold Outside. It has 23 pieces which you can catch with your 7 Seas fishing rod (purchase one at the store if you don't already have one, it can be reused endlessly) and that includes 8 mesh tops in standard, Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink sizes, 8 leggings in system or Omega, hair in rigged and unrigged versions with a HUD that offers 10 color selections, 3 scarves, a pair of boots, and 2 shades of lipstick in system or Omega. The possibilities are amazing, since you can mix and match the tops and leggings or wear the tops as a short dress, and they can be worn with or without the scarves for even more variety.
Let's start with the hair, which is the loose sky-high bun called Sn@tch Coco Hair Naturals, I'm wearing the rigged version but the unrigged will allow you to resize or reposition it if needed. You can also catch the HUD with 10 colors for the hair, which gives it even more versatility. On the left I am wearing the Sn@tch It's Cold Dress in Army, on the right is the Maroon version, and for the leggings I am wearing the Sn@tch November Leggings in Camo on the left and in Daisies on the right. I liked them paired together this way, but of course you can get as creative as you wish and match them up anyway that makes you happy :) All 8 varieties of leggings are on the same Omega HUD, while the system layers are boxed as 4 per box so just two catches to get all 8 system versions for classic avatars.
Check out my beautiful new boots! These are the Sn@tch It's Cold Boots in Black, and you will be fishing for each one separately as well as a box with the alpha layer and shoe base if you need those (I just hid my Slink feet with their HUD). The boots have bright silver buckles and detailing at the top too, balanced on high stiletto heels. Here I have them paired with the It's Cold Dress in Black, and the November Leggings in Knit Blue. There is a purple version of the dress that looks quite striking with this design of the leggings too, by the way. This pattern just looks so warm and cozy to me!
I did mention scarves, and here I was pleased to top things off with the Sn@tch It's Cold Scarf in Silver, which when worn with the It's Cold Dress in Grey looks like it could be a collar that is part of the top. I paired them with the November Leggings in Velvet Purple, a favorite color of mine in a delicious texture that looks so touchable. Our wonderful Sn@tch designer, Ivey, absolutely has an eye and a talent for textures.
For this look I am wearing the It's Cold Scarf in Leopard, a subtle pop of print above the solid It's Cold Dress in Teal. The November Leggings in Geometric have several colors within their pattern, so you could pair them with many of the different tops in this fishing set, depending which shade matches your mood or is your favorite of the day. The boots are a perfect neutral to go with any of these looks. My smile is enhanced by one of the two shades of lipstick that are part of this set, the Sn@tch It's Cold Lipstick in Taupe. I used the Omega applier which has both colors on the same HUD, but each system layer is out there for the catching as well.
As I was trying on the different looks for this post, I think my favorite combo changed several times since they are all pretty great, honestly. If I had to choose though, it would probably be this one since I am so fond of purple shades :) This is the It's Cold Dress in Plum, with the November Leggings in Fuzzy Pink, and the It's Cold Scarf in Black which will coordinate well with any of these tops. The inset gives you a closer look at the It's Cold Lips in Rose, so you can see how richly pigmented this velvety lip color is. I look so ready to face a chilly autumn day or evening in style!
My Thanksgiving was a pretty good one, despite the emotional aspect of several family members with health issues. I may have caught my uncle's cold, and since I just got over one a few weeks ago I am definitely not thankful for a repeat. What I am thankful for is time with family, especially my slightly younger cousins I don't see often enough, and just being fortunate enough to have caring people in my life. I'm also grateful to have blogging to look forward to each evening, as well as time in SL with Xan. There are plenty of other things, those are just the main things that I wanted to mention right now :) If you are reading this, I am thankful for that fact too! I hope you all had a nice holiday if in the USA, a nice couple of days no matter where you are, and a beautiful weekend ahead. Enjoy those Black Friday sales too, they are everywhere in SL and RL. Magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I will be showing you some hunt prizes, from the Get Stuffed Hunt which is a gridwide dollarbie hunt that will have you searching for flat prim cornucopias, also known as a horn of plenty. They are traditional decorations for Thanksgiving, and these are fairly small but there are hints on the website to guide you to finding them. All your landmarks are there too, so I do suggest having it open while you explore and look for these prizes. There is a page with many previews of the prizes as well, so you can get an idea of what is being offered. The hunt lasts until the end of November, so while you do have over a week left, some of these prizes deserve to be worn and enjoyed as soon as possible for the holiday.
Find the cornucopia at #bye and for just $1L you can pick up their Get Stuffed outfit. The top and pants are actually one piece, included in what I call the lucky 13 of mesh sizes: 5 standard, 5 fitmesh, Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink. The shirt says "I'm Stuffed" and on Thursday I probably will be saying exactly that in RL.
Each year at Thanksgiving, I do give a lot of thought to things I am grateful for, so this dress from @rOrO expresses that idea beautifully. It is called Thankful Dress Hunt Gift, and comes in sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. This year it is a bit harder to focus on the positive things, but I am really striving to find an attitude of gratitude.
Applique` Chic is offering their AC Retro Autumn Dress inside their $1L cornucopia, and it is as versatile as it is beautiful. The dress itself is included in standard mesh sizes plus eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and TMP versions, and there is a HUD provided with 6 texture options. As you can see from the two shown above, there are solid bodices and patterned skirts that coordinate perfectly in colors that are well suited for the season. I would gladly wear this year-round though, and not feel limited to autumn.
Soju is a store that is relatively new to me, but I have picked up a couple of hunt prizes there recently and found myself impressed and pleased. This is their prize called Get Stuffed Hunt Dress, in sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP. The fun pattern of cupcakes and lollipops, in seasonal colors, certainly put me in mind of all the treats people commonly enjoy for dessert this time of year. It is a very flattering style, too.
This sweatshirt brought a smile to my face, especially since it looks so comfy for when all the food is prepared and everyone can just kick back and enjoy a good meal with good company. It is our prize from Waffles, the Get Stuffed Female (there is a male version included too in that same $1L gift) and is provided in standard mesh sizes plus eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP. The front pocket with the cute turkey on it will be perfect for hiding that "food baby" from overindulging ;)
It was another long day here, and oh my goodness there was SO much cracking at the chiropractor! It sounded like every single vertebrae moved at least twice, LOL, which is probably not even possible but it was amusing how loud it all was. I do feel better, which will help for a rough car ride Thursday. Bumpy roads, twists and turns, roads torn up by construction, it's like a bad amusement park ride. The journey will be worth it because the destination is family :) I hope you are all having a terrific day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
