Shop and Hop - Frosted

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we swing by the Shop & Hop winter shopping event, which consists of 9 full sims loaded with holiday offers from an impressive array of SL designers on beautifully decorated regions. Most of them are offering free gifts with no group tag needed to claim them, and those are what I will be showing you this evening :) All of tonight's looks are from the Frosted sim, as I found it easier to keep each sim separate to narrow down where in this huge celebration you can expect to find each designer. The festivities last until the 3rd of January, so you have several days left to visit and enjoy.

My first look is one of the gifts from AlaFolie, this one being their CHRISTINE outfit in a seasonal theme. It consists of the top (pull), skirt (jupe), and pompons (attachment on the neckline) each in sizes for Maitreya, Maitreya Petite, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Ruth. There is also a HUD with 6 textures each for top and skirt and 7 for the pompons. The sweater choices are various winter or Christmas designs, with solid colors for the other components. I love being able to mix and match like this :)

Another gift from AlaFolie is this striking ROSE dress, a shiny red strapless dress trimmed in ivory lace and roses. It is provided in Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Ruth sizes, with an unrigged rose pin that you can adjust to sit correctly on your neckline. The crimson color makes me think of Valentine's Day too, possibly influenced by the roses, although I would happily wear this any day of the year.

You know how much I enjoy pairing multiple gifts, so I have done so here and will start from the top :) That would be the "Not a morning person" sweater from Astralia Clothing, which reads "I'm only a morning person on Christmas" beneath trees and a reindeer. The cold shoulder style has long white bows for extra fun, and the gift includes sizing for Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies. As for the fantastic leggings I am wearing, those are the {ViSion} gift of Ivory Leggings - FATPACK. They come in Freya, Isis, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, with a whopping 30 color choice via HUD. I thought the green picked up the trees nicely from the top's design, and then on the right I just chose a random color so we have a pretty pale pink. They are so versatile in both style and color range, so it is an instant wardrobe staple for me.

Another duo of gifts came together for my final look of the evening. The top is from Sweet Kajira and is called * SK * Shirt Xmas 2020 SL Shop & Hop, provided in sizes for Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya, and Maitreya Petite sizes. There is also a HUD for 5 background colors, all of which have the "Gift collector working" text on the front of the shirt. My flirty little skirt is the {le fil casse} Denise Skirt Xmas Edition gift, a frilly micro mini that shows off a touch of bum cheek from certain angles. The colors are fun for the holiday season, and there are sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies provided. 

I am still listening to Christmas music, but will probably stop soon after the new year arrives. I didn't start until after Thanksgiving, but that means it has now been over a month so I think that is a decent celebration. There are plenty more Shop & Hop treats that I will be showing you in the next couple of posts, and then before we know it, it will be a new month and new year :) This one has certainly been unforgettable but for all the wrong reasons. I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
