The Wash and Kiyomizu

Hiya everyone! Tonight I am delighted to share two of my favorite seasonal events in SL. The Wash Cart Sale has started their Sizzling Summer round today (the 3rd), and it is open until the 24th of July. Each cart has $10L - $25L selections and a special $50L offering (optional), and there are dozens of talented designers taking part with clothing, home decor, and much more. Then we have a hunt that always appears here too, the Kiyomizu Summer 2019 Hunt which starts at the Kiyomizu Mall and visits some main stores as well. We are looking for ninja cats who give free prizes when clicked, and what I usually suggest is to find all the ones you can in the mall then click one of the floating ghosts above the sidewalks outside the stores. They will take you to a personalized webpage that shows where you still need to visit and how many/which cats you have already discovered.

I am starting this evening with two selections from the *baci* cart at The Wash. On the left I am enjoying their Gitane Fuchsia dress, which includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique, all for just $10L. There are other options on the cart too, and two gifts including the outfit on the right above called Torero Vintage. It consists of the jacket and pants/high boots combo, each in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing. There is even a HUD with 9 shades to tint the pants portion. You can visit the *baci* mainstore right here on the Wash sim, behind their cart, which is linked in my ending credits.

Our next stop at The Wash is the (kuid) cart, where you can find offers like their Barbara Tank & Shorts on the left, or Morgana Tank & Thong on the right. These are each $10L selections and both so versatile, with color HUDs and multiple sizes. The Barbara outfit includes top and shorts in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, with HUDs for each with 6 cheery options. Morgana comes in the same mesh body sizes, with a HUD that lets you choose from 6 background colors for the floral pattern on each piece. The link for their mainstore can be found here, and your limo directly to their cart is in the ending credits.

Over to the Kiyomizu hunt path, here we have the M*Motion prize called C19 KYMZ Summer Gift. It includes Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink versions, and has a delicate floral texture that highlights the capped sleeves and gathered skirt nicely. Just find the hidden kitty, who is wearing a black ninja catsuit :)

There are two ninja kitties waiting for you at ::*Ran*::, and their gifts can be worn separately or (my suggestion) combined to create this fun outfit. The top is their 19-25 Tank Top KIYOMIZU Summer, in sizes for standard (S,M,L), Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous. The Mini tight skirt KIYOMIZU Summer includes all the same sizes plus an Ocacin version, and reads "Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone." 

My final look of the evening is the hunt prize from Magiclo called .: MC :. Bikini Suit [ KIYOMIZU Hunt ]. It is a single piece with a layered appearance, in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The front says Drag and Happening, while the rear has a lovely lip print with the word kiss written beneath. This is a playful look for a beach or pool, both of which I plan on visiting somewhere in SL very soon :) I won't have the chance in RL, so why not take advantage of that opportunity virtually?

Hair note of the night: after a brief hiatus due to RL, Truth Hair's designer is back with a new release in his main store called Elixir, and I can never ever resist his work especially updo styles :) So I hurried to purchase my favorite redhead pack as soon as I tried the demo and made sure it fit appropriately. It is unrigged and has a resize option in the stylist tab of the HUD, which is the same HUD we use to choose our hair shade now. There is also the option to wear it with either side's bangs/wisps hidden or both, I am wearing both visible. It amazes me how long I have been a fan of his, most of my SL existence really, and it just keeps getting better. This color pack was $300L which is comparable to other brands from what I have seen. 

I hope you are all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
