Hunting with Vagrant and Zerkalo

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are exploring the new home of Vagrant and Zerkalo, a fashion designer and home decor designer respectively. They are celebrating the grand opening with a simwide hunt, with both new mainstores and an area called The City to search for pretty red roses with stems. They are each free with no group needed to claim them, and I believe there are 18 numbered ones as well as two sample types at each mainstore's sign but do have a prize inside. I really enjoyed seeing the new build, both the stores and the post apocalyptic style city with ruins that cleverly hide some of the roses. The odd numbers are Vagrant clothing/accessories prizes and the even numbers hold Zerkalo's decor items from what I'd found. As I generally focus on fashion, I think you can guess what you'll be seeing tonight ;) I am very grateful to both stores and congratulate both designers on their hauntingly beautiful new location. This hunt is until the 21st of August, so just over a week remaining. 


Our first look of the evening is two gifts combined, so let's start from the top. That would be the -[ vagrant ]- Sienna Top - Charcoal Black, a cropped tank whose straps are twisted in the back for a unique style that absolutely caught my eye. Also catching my eye (and anyone who sees us wearing it!) would be the lace bra cups peeking out and drawing attention to the cleavage. This prize fits Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, and includes a HUD with 26 colors for the lace as well as settings for materials on/off or different levels. It pairs really nicely with the -[ vagrant ]- Henriette Jeans - Emerald prize, slightly baggy rolled hem jeans with metal detailing like chains from the left front pocket to left back pocket, circles on the left back pocket, and a chain with handcuffs attached to the right front belt loop. There is a HUD with 7 metal colors for the jeans (snap in front and circles on back pocket), zipper, chainlet (the draped chains) and cuffs (handcuffs, not fabric ones at the hems). We can also hide/show the chainlet and cuffs if we wish. That is an impressive amount of customization and something I've always enjoyed about this brand.


I kept the Sienna Top on here but changed into the -[ vagrant ]- Emma Skirt - Blue gift, which shows the versatility of the top while also just being a stunning mini skirt :) The high waist is balanced by the very short ruffled hem, and the shade of blue makes me think of deep island waters. This prize includes Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, with a HUD for the built in panties to hide/show and select from 24 colors for them. For dancing in a club, I think showing them and picking a favorite color will be a wise idea ;)


The -[ vagrant ]- Ashley Hoody - Orange is a nod to our royalty as Queen of Hearts, cropped short enough to share quite a bit of underboob and with one sleeve pulled up to the elbow while the other grazes the wrist. It is provided in sizing for Freya, Legacy, Perky, Perky Petite, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes. There is also a HUD to choose from 7 metal colors and 21 colors each for the strings and the sleeves. Did you notice the "Girl Power" stripes down the sleeves? Nice! I am wearing it with yet another hunt prize, the -[ vagrant ]- Blossom Shorts - Light Red. They are very intricately designed with embroidery on front and back of birds, a tiger, and the word LOVE on the right rear pocket. The sides are scooped high with straps holding things in place just so, and these will fit Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies. The HUD has 7 metal tones for the waist snap and the side straps' rings and rivets, so you can change those with a few quick clicks. 


That sexy Ashley hoody works well with this next hunt prize too, which is our -[ vagrant ]- Bridget Shorts - Gold. There are Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes included, with a wonderful HUD as I'm sure you can tell. This offers 7 metal colors for the draped chains on the right hip, along with 24 colors each for the belt, lace, and heart (center back) with hide/show buttons for each too. There are also options to hide and show the sparkles that appear on the left hip lace, plus glow and full bright settings to play with so you can get these shorts to look exactly the way you desire.


For my final look of the evening, I did mention accessories too...so the bold earrings seen here are our -[ vagrant ]- Ava Earrings - Fatpack prize, a pair of large disc shaped earrings whose HUD offers 7 metals and 15 designs for each earring so you can change the image on them independently. I went with the "Kiss Me" text because I was thinking about the weekend ahead and Xan ♥. I am also wearing the gold pair of the -[ vagrant ]- Kai Seashell Bracelet hunt prize, but there is a silver pair included as well. Since left and right bracelets are included in each metal, you can wear just one if that's all you're in the mood for, or have fun and layer them all up! Shell jewelry always makes me think of beach vacations as a kid and how I used to wind up buying a few similar trinkets with whatever money I'd saved up, since they were very inexpensive due to the shells being available to the makers literally yards away from their stores. Fond memories :)

It was a nice day and I'm feeling optimistic about Saturday as well :) It will be sunny and about 70 degrees out when I head to the farmers market, and even with just a few vendors showing up I know I'll still have a great time. The rest of my weekend is still to be determined, but that is mostly because there are so many little things I need to do around the house that I haven't narrowed it down yet. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
