Le Fashion Whore

Hiya everyone! Tonight, as you may have guessed from my title, we are headed to a store called Le Fashion Whore for some treats to help us wrap up November in style. They have a group that is free to join with a few gifts currently available, and a dozen lucky boards that are for group members only. The letters change fast, so hang out for a brief while and your chances of winning something are excellent :) I thoroughly enjoyed my visit, and am pleased to show you some of the group gifts and lucky board prizes this evening.


My first look is a group gift, named Le Fashion Whore - Megan Mini Dress. The dress comes in their usual sizes, which are Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies, and there is a HUD that offers 23 texture choices (a mix of solids and patterns) with 3 metal options for the rivets on the straps. Such a flirty style! To claim this and all group gifts, please right click the wrapped gift boxes beneath the photos on the tables, and pay $1L which will be automatically refunded while you are sent the gift.


Another group gift you can claim with that free group tag active is the Sookie & Jessica Fatpack, a long cardigan layered over a cropped shirt as well as an intricately crafted skirt. They each come in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes, and each have their own HUD. The cardigan's HUD provides 4 colors for the cardigan and 9 for the inner top, while the skirt HUD offers 4 neutral shades for the main skirt, 3 metals, 10 for the panel inset, and 10 colors for the laces. You can get really creative with these versatile pieces, go wild with a different color for each part or create a monochromatic look.


To create this look, I paired a lucky board prize with a group gift for a revealing and clever outfit. The top is the group gift, Le Fashion Whore - Bianca Shirt, whose HUD includes 12 terrific texturing options in various colors. The one on the right above says Not Today Satan, a thought I have had randomly all too often lately ;) There are also ones honoring musicians, just a lot of potential to appreciate. The shorts are a lucky board prize called Shelly Denim Shorts, and they come in the same mesh sizing as all of the other pieces I am sharing tonight (Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya). The belt is a built in part of these vibrant blue shorts, and denim is one of those go-to fabrics that looks fantastic with everything.


On Wednesdays we wear pink...well it may not be Wednesday, but I am grinning while wearing this lucky board prize called Le Fashion Whore - Elsa Puffer Jacket. It includes a HUD with 2 choices for the shirt layer, solid or with the words shown above, and 3 metals for the snaps. Did you notice the plaid pink liner of the jacket? These subtle touches make all the difference, I love when designers pay attention to detail.


For my final look of the evening, I have another lucky board prize that I am thrilled to be able to share, named Darcy Dress. She has bare shoulders, a lovely neckline that matches the belt perfectly, and a layer of black lace atop the crimson skirt. Red and black is such a classic combo, and it suits this alluring style wonderfully.

Whew, it has been quite a whirlwind here! Thanksgiving dinner with my family was very enjoyable, and just as interesting as last year's...background info, I have 2 cousins who are my mom's brother's sons, and last Thanksgiving the older one revealed that he and his girlfriend had eloped in March, which his own parents were unaware of until this confession. Well, the younger cousin (31 to his older brother's 36) had a revelation of his own this year...turns out HE eloped with his girlfriend of a few short months that his family hasn't even met yet. Pass the stuffing and pass the tea, right? His parents weren't there this year so I have no idea if they know yet, but his brother sure didn't. I noticed as soon as he arrived (late) that he was wearing a ring on that finger but didn't say anything because I thought naahh, couldn't be. LOL! All I want is for the family I love to be happy, so I am being positive about it and look forward to meeting my new cousin-in-law on Christmas eve. She wasn't feeling well or she would have been at dinner yesterday. I can't wait to see who elopes before next Thanksgiving ;) Kidding!! My houseguest decided to stay an extra day so I still have company, but am glad for it because they are a wonderful houseguest and friend ♥. I had some leftovers for dinner tonight, and some more are waiting in the fridge for tomorrow, so I certainly won't go hungry any time soon. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Feeling Thankful

Hiya everyone! Tonight I decided to choose a group I am thankful for, FabFree in SL, and share some of their current group gifts with everyone. Their group is free to join and is the in-world presence of the FabFree in SL blog, a longtime favorite read of mine that I highly recommend to learn about gifts, sales, special offers, and events throughout SL. Whether you are new to the grid or an experienced resident, you will find useful information there :) There are many designers who have gifts waiting for FabFree group members, just visit with your tag active and look for the rainbow FabFree sign.


My first look is our gift from ! SALTY ! in their temporary location in the air while the Flawless sim undergoes a little renovation :) Her name is Luna and she is a sleeveless gathered delight in black with built in belt. The gift includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. 


Such a pretty way to show off a bare midriff and hourglass figure :) This is the gift from Alias! called Oh Fall, and it is quite versatile since it includes a HUD with 10 autumnal texture choices for the top which all look great with the long black skirt. The top and skirt each come in standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine versions.


GLITTER has two gifts for FabFree, the newer of which is this lovely Lindsey Fitmesh Dress Bluette. It is provided in 5 classic sizes and 5 fitmesh sizes for classic avatars, plus mesh body versions for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. The layers at the waist remind me of tulip petals, such an intriguing style!


Another little black dress that is far from basic, this is the BWC In Black Dress. The sheer floral panel on the top complements the lacy hem beautifully, while making this dress somehow both flirty and modest. It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies.


My final look this evening is a revealing one, the Black Lace Bustier Negligee by COVETED!. It is included in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Legacy mesh bodies, and has various levels of transparency for a seductive feeling. Again, I am a fan of all the little details, like the unique straps and the lace beneath the bra cups. 

As I mentioned in my title, I am feeling thankful for many things this year as we approach Thanksgiving. The fact that my grandmother is still with us at 93 and after surviving a stroke a few years ago is a miracle, and getting together with family and friends at her house will be a special occasion for sure. I have a houseguest arriving momentarily to join us for dinner, and they will be here until Friday night so will be understandably busy the next couple of days. Right now my plan is to skip blogging tomorrow but probably post the following evening, but if that becomes too much of a challenge I will try to give a heads up on twitter. Our Thanksgiving traditions are a bit complicated as a blended Italian-American family, so we have: fruit salad, Italian wedding soup, pasta with meatballs and sausage, then the turkey and sides (potatoes, stuffing, veggies, etc.) and homemade cranberry sauce, finishing up with several desserts. All of these are homemade, organic where possible, locally sourced, etc., so it is quite a feast and one that takes all day to eat. I will probably be there for 8 hours or more, so you can bet I'll need a nap after all that! I generally take tiny portions of most of the above while totally skipping others, and lots of leftovers always make their way to everyone's homes.

Back to the gratitude I want to express...I am very fortunate to have family, friends, and Xan in my life, and I am grateful for whatever remaining health I have. I really need to mention how much I appreciate all of you who read my blog and give me a reason to do this, it provides a sense of purpose in my sometimes bleak existence and I thank you. If you celebrate, please have a very Happy Thanksgiving, and if not I still wish you a beautiful day of course. Sending many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Can I Play With Madness

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some more limited time group gifts to share from the Evil Bunny Hunt group, found at the Black Friday Bazaar 2. There are black bags with gifts in them at each designer's display, along with discounted selections to help you save lindens during this Black Friday shopping mania season :) There are over 60 participating designers, so as you can imagine there are plenty of choices including fashion and home decor. As usual I am focusing on treats you can wear for my photos, with some manicures at the end. The first photo inspired my title, which is a song that brings back strange but amusing memories from my past and my childhood best friend.


My first look features the PinkRayne gift called Metal Tee, with METAL emblazoned across the front in a font inspired Iron Maiden. The knotted tee comes in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with a HUD that has 5 color options for you to enjoy.


The group gift from Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. goes perfectly with my Delizio jeans too. It is called Vampy Rose Tee BFB Gift, and is provided in standard mesh sizes as well as versions for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. I feel like this first two gifts of the evening have an 80s music vibe, since this made me start humming a Guns N Roses song ;) Patience in case you wondered which, although I like several of theirs.


We all deserve something sexy to wear when the mood strikes us, so be sure to claim the group gift from [Ahroun Designs] to enjoy their Nicky Lingerie - Gift. It comes in standard mesh sizes plus eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. The lace is fairly sheer, and those garters would look terrific over a pair of thigh high stockings if you have any in red or maybe black. 


zOOm is offering a generous gift to us too, their Military Dress with subtle pattern and built in belt. In sizes for Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies, it is fun for the season with the high neck and long sleeves, while still showing off some leg with that fluttery short skirt. You can always wear leggings beneath for a warmer or layered look, and maybe boots rather than sandals for cool weather. 


My final look of the night is a closer view of my nails, which are decorated with the gift from Tone 2 called Silica Mattes Deep Nails. It includes mani/pedi HUDs for Belleza, Maitreya, and Omega, with 9 dramatic shades to choose from. I used the Omega and might have been experiencing a strange SL glitch, but one of the colors (green) was not applying for me, however that still left 8 awesome options :) 

Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching, so naturally things are getting more busy and stressful. I don't know how people do it when they are coordinating things for a bigger family that is spread out further so there is even more travel involved, and if that's you I can only say I respect you deeply :) I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

More Black Friday Bazaar Gifts

Hiya everyone! Tonight there are more Black Friday Bazaar gifts to show you, because there were simply too many to squeeze into a single post. You will need the Evil Bunny Hunt group tag (free to join) active to click the black bags at each display and claim the free goodies from all of these talented designers. The holiday shopping season is upon us, so the discounts on special offers are very welcomed :) I feel like the group gifts are our rewards to ourselves for being kind to each other and being polite while at crowded events, so yes you do deserve them too!


My first look of the evening is the Emerald Couture gift called EC Sundae Dress Cherry Berry. The tasty looking pattern might just inspire a new tradition for your Thanksgiving dessert, and the cherry red halter is a terrific match. It includes standard mesh sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body versions.


Next is a beautiful duo of dresses from Indigenous, their Poinsettia Explosion Dress in Blue on the left, Green on the right. Each is provided in sizes for Altamura, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The texture of the dresses reminds me of stained glass, such a beautiful aspect.


AdoreZ has a flirty group gift for us, their Hilary Body suit in black with metallic chains. It includes Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, and is one of those styles that make for a unique swimsuit or lingerie if the mood arises.


I got such a good laugh out of our gift from ZFG, which is simply called JULIANA GROUNDS. The text on the front reads "Rubbing coffee grounds on your body is supposed to prevent cellulite. Don't try it in Starbucks. My trial date is pending." LOL! While I have seen coffee as a body scrub ingredient, I forgot what benefit it provides, but now I know to keep it in the bathroom instead of in public ;) This gift consists of Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, and you will find that ZFG's products generally are sassy and fun.


My final look of the evening is another beautiful top, this one from BLONDEQUEEN. Their ::BQ::Rose Top:: comes in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, in a pastel pink with soft blooms decorating it. The deep plunging neckline down to the flirty tie in the front is just lovely, isn't it? I have paired both of the last two tops with my favorite marketplace gift from Delizio, their jeans in Blue which is just one of the many colors included in system/BOM layers plus Maitreya and Omega appliers.

It was a pretty good day here, and my hockey team finally won a game without having to go to overtime ;) It was a night celebrating Hockey Fights Cancer, so there were lots of touching stories about kids who got to meet their favorite players (or in one case, mascot) to cheer them through their cancer battles. I was tearful a few times, I admit it, but with pride in all the good things that the NHL in general does for people who need help. One young man is 14, was in remission for 8 years when his cancer returned, yet he has this amazing spirit and determination that will serve him well no matter what happens in the years ahead ♥. *wipes tears again* I hope you are all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Black Friday Bazaar

Hiya everyone! Tonight we visit a special event, the Black Friday Bazaar 2 which is organized by Evil Bunny Hunts. Here you will find many discounted selections for the upcoming big shopping day to help you prepare for the season, and all participating designers are offering a free gift for the Evil Bunny Hunt group members. That group is free to join, so just wear your tag and click the black bags at each display to claim your treats while you shop :) This event (which just opened a few days ago) is open until the 2nd of December, so it is a limited time offer that you don't want to miss out on.


My first look is the group gift from Changed Seasons, their flirty Dove Berry for EBP. This dress has plenty of strappy and laced details for a far-from-basic look, and it is provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. 


Next we have the fluttery top from After Midnight Fashion, their ::AMF:: Black Friday Gift - Bizarre, which is a fun play on words for the Bazaar :) It comes in Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, with a slightly longer back and playful bows atop each strap. The bows made me happy to pair the top with another group gift, the Selene Skirt from JR Wolf Creations, which has its own laces and bows down each side. The gift includes standard mesh sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine versions, all with a HUD that lets you pick from 10 colors. Just think, that HUD makes this a generous fatpack of skirts for free! I am about to show you how versatile it is, too, since it is also in the next few photos.


This next look is our JR Wolf Creations gift skirt with the LMagnums group gift called Payton Christmas Harness Tank. It includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP sizes, all with the harness attached. It says Merry Christmas on the front surrounded by snowflakes, and check out the cute Rudolph the red nosed reindeer on the back :)


The skirt also looks great in blue, as you can see here, and complements our gift from MadCatCreations very nicely. Their MCC - Snow Sweater - White comes in fitmesh standard sizes plus versions for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. This wintry gift's knit features not only snowflakes but trees and reindeer to highlight the season.


For my final look, I tinted the skirt a pinkish purplish shade and changed into the Moondust gift. It is called Rose Tops - White and has a grayscale floral pattern with a black bow holding it in place in the back. The gift includes sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies.

I could really use a scalp and neck massage to chase away a headache, but otherwise I am having a decent evening and hope you all are too :) Many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Free Dove Treasures

Hiya everyone! Tonight I decided to visit The Free Dove for some one-stop shopping, so to speak, as you won't need any lindens at all to claim these free gifts that are all in one location. Whether you've been a part of SL for a week or a decade, you can surely find something among these generous gifts that will suit you, and the group is free to join as always. There are clothing and accessories for men and women, compatible with classic or mesh avatars, and you just might find a designer that is new to you and would welcome your visit to their mainstore as well. I am always impressed with each visit here, and I hope something catches your eye from this post too. All of tonight's looks can be found on one of the Womens Casual displays, so just peek at the signs hanging above each display.


This first group gift is from Composer Girls Fashion, and is called !CGF-*Allegra* Complete Jeans Outfit. The pink and wine striped crop top comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique mesh bodies, while the matching wine jeans are in the same sizes plus additional Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and TMP versions. The peeptoe ankle boots are provided for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink High, and Tonic feet, and the jewelry is included too - belly piercings (dermal, 3 on each side) fitted for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, and even the double necklace with built in resize menu on touch.


Another terrific outfit comes from :.C!L.: and is their Sienna Loose Sweater & Black Leggings Set. The top and pants are linked to wear as one piece, in fitmesh standard sizes as well as Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink fits. Also included are two striking necklaces, one in a matching color as the sweater and the other with dogtags, so you can wear one or both with this outfit. 


I knew from the front that this gift from Petry Model called DRESS HKOS was flirty, but then I turned around and spotted that rear view...wowza! Please excuse my cheeky flash of bum cleavage :) The dress comes in Freya, Isis, Maitreya, and Slink Physique sizes, with a 6 color HUD so you can choose your hue. 


GeMyles has a gift waiting for us at Free Dove too, their Faythe Brown Shells outfit. It is a single piece with the appearance of two, with an open sweater held in the front by a couple of buttons, and a flared mini skirt. The gift includes plenty of mesh sizes for all: 5 classic, 5 fitmesh, eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine. I really like how the bell sleeves mimic the flow of the skirt, and the dark color shows that seashells do not have to be limited to summer fashion.


For my final look of the evening, I chose the {Le'La} Kolina Suit which is among our many generous Free Dove gifts. The one piece outfit with black lace overlay to match the collar, buttons, and pocket flaps comes in standard mesh sizes along with Belleza Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing. There is also a HUD provided with 4 colors, the two shown above plus a charcoal grey almost black, and a hot pink that really pops beneath the dark lace. Clearly there are no wrong choices here :) I feel like this would look sexy with some tights layered beneath, and of course a pair of heels which you can find displays of at Free Dove too.

I am a bit slow tonight, probably from being tired after a full day and an emotional rollercoaster. I am also trying to do several things at once, which is usually a recipe for trouble here. At least my fridge is full of tasty treats, and I can listen to the rain outside without worrying about having to venture out into it. I hope you're all having a fantastic weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Wonderful Womenstuff

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have just a few more prizes to share from the Womenstuff Hunt, the impressively sized gridwide $0L or $1L hunt that has had me hopping all month. There are over 130 stores taking part, some with multiple prizes, which explains why it has been featured in so many of my November posts :) I have been so impressed by the quality of the gifts, many of which are exclusive for this hunt, which makes it even more important to find all those red/green/brown t-shirts if you like what you see. The website will tell you which are exclusive, along with providing hints and information on if you need to skip a store. 


For my first look tonight, we have the MadCatCreations prize for just $1L called Winter Jumper and Skirt. They are linked together to wear as a single unit, in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Maitreya, and Legacy mesh bodies. The blue denim skirt peeks out from beneath the knit texture of the sweater, which is in a lovely shade of purple.


You too can look pretty in pink when you locate this prize from Robot Dolly. Their RD - Piper - leather outfit is just $1L, and includes the bra top and matching skirt in standard mesh sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine versions. There are plenty of fun details to enjoy, like the delicate bow in the back or the zipper in front of the skirt.


Next we see the free prize from Krystal's called [KS] Kendra in Sparkles. The high neck, sleeveless sheath dress comes in a standard fitted version along with sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. There is also a HUD provided with 6 texture choices, all of which are animated with those playful sparkles that actually pulse and change size. We definitely need to wear this to a club soon!


Time to get daring in denim with this terrific free prize from AMUI. Their Dora Dress comes in standard mesh sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body versions, all with that built in harness in a slighter shade of denim. Seams always make a difference with denim, and the ones on this dress really draw the eye upward to the neckline, and to the slit on the left thigh.


My final look of the evening can be found inside the t-shirt at Tori's Stylez, a free gift called TS-Bikini-Leah. If you are heading to a beach, pool, or just one of the many beautiful warm weather sims in SL, be sure to "pack" this colorful and cute treat. The bikini top and bottom, and matching fringed dress (cover-up) all come in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizing, and you can combine them however you wish for strolling a boardwalk or going for a quick swim.

Whew, it was certainly a full day and evening here, and I'm glad to be home relaxing with all of you :) The cooking in advance for Thanksgiving (things that can be frozen) went well, and everything else is planned or ordered for next week. I genuinely had fun with my mom in the kitchen, giggling over random things and just enjoying our conversations. I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
