Happy Birthday SL

Hiya everyone! Tonight we will visit another sim of the SL17B Shop and Hop event, for Second Life's 17th birthday celebration. There are 10 entire sims dedicated to shopping, with designers who create clothing, accessories, skins, hair, home decor, and more. Each display offers discounted selections, and nearly all have free gifts for visitors which is what I am sharing tonight from the Gilded sim. It is easiest for me to take it one region at a time so I am giving you one landmark, no confusion and trying to get into multiple sims at once. It is still fairly busy there, but definitely worth the visits.


For my first look this evening, I paired two gifts that coordinate nicely but will also work as part of whatever outfit you wish to create :) The top is the gift from Pink Cream Pie, called !PCP :: Melly Tank [Fruity Pack]. The halter style top comes in Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, with a HUD offering 12 prints and 12 solids for the main portion plus 12 colors each for the trim and string. The gift from Adorsy is simply named SL17B Gift Skirt, and is provided in Legacy and Maitreya sizing. The HUD included lets you pick from 20 main textures (all either striped or dotted) and 2 metals, plus 30 solid colors for the built in panties beneath which can also be turned on or off via HUD. 


This gift is ideal for summer too, the .::Dead Dollz::. Silene Swimsuit - Tropical. With flowers and flamingoes in the pattern, of course it caught my attention :) This daring one piece has been created for the Maitreya mesh body, with a deep V neckline below a strappy belt, and ties in the back. 


It is so appropriate to find this shiny gold gift from Baiastice on the Gilded sim! This is their Gio Belted Dress - Leopard, in sizes for Alice, Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. There is a HUD included too that allows you to show/hide the belt and the built in panties. For some reason this dress makes me think nightclub, but there are many playful places you could wear it of course.


My next look shows just how intriguing a slender sheath dress can be. It is the Valentina E. Carrie Knit Dress Teal, and is designed for the Maitreya mesh body. The texture softly ripples with waves that, combined with the colors, put me in mind of the ocean at sunset. Simply beautiful!


For my final look of the evening, I am enjoying a sample of the .:PULSE:. gift which is their Vibsy Dress - Maitreya Lara Fatpack. There are 8 colors of dress included: army (seen on the right above), black, blue, blush, plum (left above), red, white, and wine. The belly chain belt comes in gold, onyx, rose gold, and silver for 4 options to mix and match with the dresses, or you can wear the dress alone without a belt of course. The waist chain really draws attention to the peekaboo opening in the back I think, and the low cut neckline. 

My computer fan replacement has become a case of good news/bad news, well more like bad news then good news. We ordered the fans according to the information we found online for my exact case, but one of them was too big and that turned out to be the fan that needs replacing. The good news is that we ordered a spare fan that is smaller but also compatible with the case for that top fan, so I will have a proper fan installed very soon. There was research involved so that is why a slight delay, but the PC has been cleaned out and is otherwise doing fine :) I have a chiropractor appointment in the afternoon, so I think the plan is to do it upon returning home. I forget exactly how old the PC is, but most of the parts have been replaced over time so it isn't a bad setup and I am grateful that it works as well as it does. I hope you all had a terrific weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
