Winter in Kiyomizu

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I would like to invite you to the Kiyomizu Mall, where their seasonal hunt is currently taking place. It is the Winter 2020-2021 round, and lasts until the 11th so you have a few more days to find hidden ninja cats in stores around the mall or at some main stores. The best way to see where you still need to locate kitties is to click a ghost floating above the walkways at the mall, which creates a personalized website showing landmarks of each hunt object. The signs are impressively scripted, so it knows how many cats are ready and available at each stop. This hunt can be tricky since there are no hints given, but many of the stores (especially their Kiyomizu locations) are fairly small so you are searching a tiny area. I have so much fun with these hunts each time a new season arrives!!

One of the first stores I usually visit is M*Motion, and their prize for us is this beautiful C20 KMYZ Winter Gift. The full outfit is designed to fit the Maitreya mesh body, and there is a HUD included to turn the pants on or off so you can wear it either way. The navy blue silk looks so pretty with the embroidered design!

The ninja kitty at [satus Inc] will give you their Baye Surfing Swimwear Red when you find him and gently pet him :) It comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, and has a really unique design. The high neck and solid front give a serious look, but from the side or rear you can see the scoop midriff cutouts and laced back opening that bring out its playful side. 

I also found a furry friend at Shiorin's Mart, and was rewarded with their =CS= KIYOMIZU HUNT PRIZE 2020WINTER. This consists of the mini dress with cutout and matching panties, each in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The wintry knit texture is delightful for the season, isn't it?

This charming look is our prize from **milky-way, whose store I always look forward to visiting whether during the hunts or any time of year. Their "*20-09 jumper-skirt kiyomizu hunt" outfit is a single piece with a layered look, made to fit the Maitreya mesh body. The brick red jumper has a fun zipper on the side, and contrasts beautifully with the lacy puff sleeves and delicately buttoned neckline of the blouse beneath. 

Are you ready to revisit Christmas fashion? The 3 prizes from Amikko will combine to help you do just that. The top, skirt, and hat are hiding with separate ninja cats, with the top and skirt each provided in a fitmesh version and a Maitreya size. The hat has a cute snowman atop it, with holly at his base (almost said feet...) and the top has an image of Santa with his sack of goodies. I got a kick out of the skirt too, with its bold striped layers and the hem is slightly longer in the back of this full style. 

It has been quite a day here in the USA, and I am deeply saddened by the violence and distress that gripped the nation's capital earlier. I know I make it a point not to bring political commentary to my blog since it's my desire and my choice to keep this for SL only, so I will just say that my heart is heavy and I am grateful that my friends in the Washington DC area are safe. All I want is for this country to find peace within itself, and we all need to work together for that to happen. To all my non-American readers, please be patient with those of us who are trying to process everything that is happening and join us in hoping for a brighter future. I am either optimistic or naive enough to believe that is still somehow possible ;) Many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
