Treasuring The Gacha Life

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting a little slice of history, as it is the last ever round of The Gacha Life. The decision by Linden Labs to eliminate gachas from SL since they are not legal in all countries has sent ripples through the community, with many stores discounting their gachas for the remainder of the month and asking their customers what they would like to see happen to the offered products in the future. As for The Gacha Life, their final round has a theme of Almost Fall and there are plenty of items available in addition to free group gifts :) The group is free to join, and you will find gifts at just about every display in a black bag with a framed photo of the gift next to it. Are you ready to see some of those generous gifts?


My first look is a full outfit from GIULIADESIGN which is called AVA. She consists of the top, belly chain, and leggings each in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with coordinated stiletto heels that fit Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink High feet. The colors and long pants are a nod to fall, but the bare belly and arms revealed by our top are still delightful for these warm days of late summer.


Next I slipped into the DPB Betsy Dress - Harvest Black group gift from Dore Papillon Boutique. This flowing mini dress has detached gathered sleeves and a gorgeous floral pattern on a dark background, while there are panties included to wear beneath. Each are provided in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizing.


For this look I combined two gifts that you can decide to mix and match however makes you the most happy :) The top is the BQ ::Gold Kay Top:: from BLONDEQUEEN, and it is included in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. The pants are the gift from LMagnums which are their Tatianna Capri Pants - Red. You will find sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, and Hourglass mesh bodies inside this gift, all with the ruffled midcalf hem and low waist with double row of buttons in front. 


This cozy look can be found at the LOVE LACE display, tucked inside their gift bag. It's called ::LL:: Maxi Sweater // Unicorn Pack, and it is just the right length to serve as a long tunic style sweater or a short dress, depending on the weather and destination. The sweater comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes, with a 4 texture HUD so you can change the look on a whim. The extra long sleeves and soft colors make me want to snuggle up with some hot tea, and have a cheerful chat with a friend :)


For my final look of the evening, I am pleased to share the KEY STYLE group gift called bamby color nw. This intriguing outfit looks like a flirty bodysuit with skirt ruffle, tied in the back then laced like a corset. There are sizes provided for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, along with a HUD to change the bra and ruffle to your choice of 4 colors. I think it wraps up the post with a whimsical yet sexy style.

Whew, my whirlwind of a week has reached the weekend :) The dental visit yesterday went fine, and I am still quite amused by the deja vu I always get from the nitrous. For example, when I recognized a song on their radio I correctly "remembered" the next two that would be coming on. The conversation with the hygienist felt like we had had it before, impossible since it involved her new baby. The mind is a mysterious thing, and the way that gas affects the thinking process is a hoot! It keeps me calm and panic-free so I am grateful for it. Otherwise I have my usual Saturday farmers market visit planned, and will finish watching a movie when I get home. I am still slowly working my way through the Marvel cinematic universe, better late than never. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
