Holiday Season Fair

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have another limited time opportunity to share, as the Holiday Season Fair 2020 is coming to a close on the 4th of January. I highly recommend visiting before then, as there are some terrific offers in addition to free gifts at nearly every display. No group is required to claim the gifts, just give each golden giftbox (a few are their own designs) a click to receive a folder with the gift inside. It was fun visiting and checking out everything from the holiday decor to the generous offers and gifts.

First I slipped into the gift from anny's Fashion called [AF] Danyca Leather Dress. The strapless mini has a built in belt with chain draped along the right hip, and it is provided in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. There are also matching shoes, an extra touch which I always appreciate, in Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink high sizing. All you have to do is click the gift box to claim this free gift. 

Another wonderful dress can be found at the zOOm display, as their event gift for us is the Allie Dress you see here. It has a wide boat neck that is squared in the back, with brief hemline to show off our legs. The gift includes Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, with a 4 color HUD so you can pick the floral pattern that makes you happy.

I love our gift from Enigma Apparel, which is their [EN] Outfit Esther. The jumper and skirt each come in sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The high neckline and long sleeves make it look cozy and warm, yet the bared midriff and short skirt have a flirty flavor. 

This striking dress is the Argentina gift from #Apl.Blossom, a real treat with its lacy hem and deep neckline with delicately tied spaghetti straps. It is provided in sizes for Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, with a 6 color HUD in hues of pinks, purples, and blues. I really enjoy the versatility of a HUD as you probably know by now, so this (and many other gifts here) is a greatly appreciated find.

One last treat of the night, you can find this at the New Line Store display where clicking the gift box will reward you with their Dress Vanessa. It includes eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, and is a single piece with the appearance of two. The leathery textures look beautiful in both colors used, and I enjoy the balance of the neutral tan against the bright pink.

It was a chilly but enjoyable day here, and I got to return to the farmers market I usually visit on Saturdays to get lots of delicious handmade foods for the week ahead. Right now I am nibbling on a shortbread cookie from the Australian couple who sell baked goods there, and smiling thinking about the fun conversation we had :) The market was closed last week for the holidays, and I respect their choice while also being glad they are opened again. I also got a message from my mom tonight, who found the obituary for my ex-husband...it said he passed peacefully at home, surrounded by family. While I still don't know what happened, I am glad he was not alone and not suffering. It is so strange to have a chapter of my life closed for so long, then feeling compelled to think about it again. It is rather like having an old scar start aching or itching when you would prefer it to stay healed and forgotten. I am really starting this new year with some deep thoughts, aren't I? Oh well, I do hope that you're all having a fantastic weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
