Beautifully Twisted

Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some more Twisted Hunt Fall 2020 prizes to share, all of which are free but you will "earn" them by searching for gently rotating lament cubes. The theme is Drow, and the color is moss-covered earth, so lots of dark green and brown that has found its way to many of the prizes as well as being the texture of the cubes. There are no hints on the website, but if you really get stuck you can ask in the in-world group. Many designers move their cube from time to time (some daily), so it wouldn't be practical to try to keep that updated on a website. We have until the end of the month to find all these tricky cubes, so just over a week remaining. Grab a friend or two (I am a fan of teamwork with this challenge) and best of luck!


My first ensemble of the evening starts with the Sarcastic Nightmare prize called :{SN}: TwistedDrowAssasins, a high waisted skirt with separate top so you can choose to wear it with or without. Each piece comes in sizing for Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with several dark green belts and a few straps holding the skirt in place. I accessorized with another prize, one that was found in a maze at Semi-Precious who are neighbors with Steel & Ink whose prize I already shared recently. So this is their lovely Minesnil set, a necklace and matching earrings with some arachnid vibes thanks to the webs crafted by the clever spider on the necklace. There is an included HUD that has 3 metal choices (blue, silver, gold) for the fabric, metal, and stones. The metal is the link holding the pendant, while the fabric is the webbed part of the choker and the stone appears on the spider's body. The HUD also has resize abilities, so I think you will really enjoy experimenting with it to get your look just right for you.


Applique` Chic is offering two prizes inside their cube, one for the guys and this unique AC: Twisted Drow Womens gown. It is provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh bodies. The texture gives you a good idea of what the cubes look like, and I really enjoy the daring slit and the single bare arm, and those solid green ruffles are stunning.


Next we see the flirty exclusive prize from [Ari-Pari] called Vena Laced-Up Dress - Twisted Hunt. It has laced slits on each thigh and some lacing in the back for added appeal, and comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. There is also a HUD provided with 10 color choices, so you can match a mood or event theme with ease. As for accessories, we once again go spidery with the gifts from Moondance Boutique, where you will be looking for a total of 5 prize-filled cubes (among decoys too) to complete the Anansi collection. There are earrings, necklace, rings, and 2 different HUDs, original and seasonal colors, which each offer 28 colors each for gems 1 and 2 along with 9 metals. You can also use either HUD to resize the pieces, and be sure to click which one you want on the left side or "all" to customize them all at the same time. 


This round offers many accessories in addition to clothing and home decor, and I felt like you really needed to see this prize from Grogo's Gadgets. It is their GG: THF20 - Drow Necklace, featuring the hunt sign image on a pendant dangling from tiny versions of the hunt cube. It is a clever way to remember the hunt with jewelry, while not being obvious what it is until someone looks closely. It looks very pretty with the Ari-Pari dress in green, and I am about to show you a small peek of the same dress worn with something quite different.


We rarely get the opportunity to wear circlets in RL, which somehow makes me even more eager to wear them here in SL :) This striking look is our prize from Ashbourne & Co. called Tears of Lolith Circlet, named for the demon queen of spiders who is the chief goddess of the drow. The black band really shows off the silver spidery metalwork holding a trio of red teardrop gems, in a gorgeous color combination.

If you have ever had a day where lots of little things seemed to add up until they were ganging up on you and causing lots of mayhem, well then you have had a day like mine was, mostly the evening. It happens, but now I am running very far behind and I feel guilty about that. I hope you're all having a peaceful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
