Kiyomizu Summer 2022 Hunt

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are exploring the Kiyomizu Summer 2022 hunt, which starts at the Kiyomizu Mall and continues at several of the designers' mainstores. The free gifts can be claimed by locating the ninja cat hiding in each store, and I usually start by perusing the mall and looking for the hunt signs to see if a particular store is participating or not. The scripting for this hunt is fantastic, as those signs help keep track of how many cats are in each store and if they are ready or not. For a personalized list of all the URLs and which ones you have found compared to where you still need to visit, be sure to click a floating ghost above any of the walkways at the mall. These cats can be resized fairly small and hidden inside things (walls, boxes, etc.) and there are no hints, which makes this hunt relatively tricky but it is still very worthwhile and fun. This is the final week of the hunt, as it wraps up on the 10th, but it is still very doable in that timeframe.

If you have ever wondered if a swimsuit can be strapless yet strappy at the same time, look no further than the prize from M*Motion. Their C22 Strap less One-piece is designed to fit the Maitreya mesh body, and has a beautiful pattern of pastel triangles. The open back is where you'll find the straps, crisscrossed to hold things in place perfectly.

I also found the ninja kitty at [Amikko] so I was able to claim their Kiyomizu Hunt 2022 outfit. The dress comes in a fitmesh M size for classic avatars as well as versions for Maitreya and Slink Physique mesh bodies, and the kiwi slice earrings are a playful touch that really complete the look. I think it's very fitting for summer since I do think of fresh fruits this time of year :)

Next we get to take a look at the charming SHOP KERO Saree hunt prize. The dress is a single piece that fits fitmesh M as well as Freya, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. Then there is a handy HUD that offers 8 colors each for the dress and shawl, with arrows that enable us to adjust the proportions of the pattern on each. As you can see on the right, I made both patterns a little bit bigger as an example.

I also found a wonderful prize at MeltingDots Freebie Store, their adorable Summer Dress Dots. This ruffled sundress is included in Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine sizes, with a similar HUD to the prior gift above. It lets us choose from 6 colors for our background, and we can adjust the size of the polka dot pattern with the arrows. i am a fan of polka dots and sometimes lean towards the larger sizes, but other times the daintier the better. This way I can suit any mood or whim!

My final look of the evening is the Hapi*Rabi Stacy - ksh prize, a truly eye-catching beauty of a dress in Legacy and Maitreya sizing. The details make the difference here, from the bows atop each shoulder to the plunging front and back, to the frill at the hemline. The white floral pattern looks so sweet on the soft teal fabric, and I can easily see myself wearing this a lot throughout the summer and beyond.

I finally watched the rest of Stranger Things today, and was blown away by everything that was revealed. It was intense, intriguing, and I was brought to tears multiple times. Next season is bound to be just as good, although possibly even darker so I will need to be prepared. That was pretty much the only interesting thing my day held, LOL, but that isn't too bad :) I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
