Weekend Wishes

Hiya everyone! Tonight we start our weekend at the Sun-Sational Summer Cart Sale on The Wash sim, one of my favorite seasonal events where we can find bargains of $50L or less from dozens of talented creators. The streets are lined with carts, packed with fashions for the whole family and home decor among the genres so you can freshen your wardrobe and living space without breaking the bank. I also have some more Stay at Home Club goodies to share, since these fine designers are still offering gifts to cheer up those of us who are mostly isolated in RL for safety. Their kindness is one of the things I will take away as a positive among the troubles, the silver lining we all deserve to find. Honestly the regular events like the Wash cart sale help too, consistency in an inconsistent world I guess, but I do feel a sense of comfort from the SL events that are still reliably there.


My first look features one of the wonderful choices from the Dreamz cart at The Wash, their DCI Arrlina with HUD. This dress has a unique and flattering style with the crossed straps in the back and the X in the front that reveals small sheer panels on each side of the waist, and a short fluttery skirt. It comes in sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies, with an impressive HUD to choose from 35 textures (25 solids, 10 patterns). This treat is just $25L, and there are several others with HUDs and various sizing for you to enjoy. The link to their cart is in my ending credits, and you can find more Dreamz creations on the marketplace linked here.


Shae's Designs has several offerings to tempt you, like this flirty Alea Top & Skirt set in 10 different colors, just $25L apiece. I am wearing #2 on the left and 7 on the right, randomly chosen so you could see a glimpse of the variety. These are included in eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine sizes. To visit their mainstore please click here, and your limo directly to their cart is in my ending credits as usual.


While you are at The Wash sim for the cart sale, you can also visit CatsClaw Designs mainstore for a special treat. Staying at home in RL does not mean we have to stay home in SL of course, but we want to look good when we go out on the town, so be sure to pick up the CCD No Mercy Outfit Hot Pink seen here. This is one of 4 Stay at Home Club gifts currently available, no group tag needed so you can just click them to receive these wonderful goodies. The jacket, top add on, and skirt each come in sizes for standard M, Belleza Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique. The top is meant to be layered beneath rather then worn separately, so it is detached sleeves with bare upper arms. You could easily layer anything you wish beneath instead, or wear the jacket alone if you are feeling particularly bold ;)


I'm sure I have mentioned before how much I appreciate it when a dress or outfit comes with matching footwear, making me especially grateful for this Stay at Home gift from *It's Gau*. Their playful Janiss Black gift includes both the dress and above-the-knee boots, each sized for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The details really appeal to me here, like the distressed spots on both the dress and the boots, and the various cutouts making the boots look like they are crafted with straps on the sides.


For my final look of the evening, I have paired the two Stay at Home Club gifts from PopCorn which come together to create one very eye-catching outfit. Their Mel Top - Blue Skull and Mel Skirt - Blue Skull are each provided in versions with or without materials enabled, sized for Alice, Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies. The skull pattern is subtle at first glance, being shades of the same color, and the black strips and waistband accentuate things nicely. 

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
