Emerald Couture Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post features several free gifts from the generous Emerald Couture for their free VIP group. There are lots of group gifts currently still available, and I chose the most recent to show you. We also have access to the midnight mania boards and lucky boards/chairs in the same area with that group tag active, so there are an amazing number of treats waiting for us! Also don't forget their Advent calendar (Emerald Man is across the shopping center with gifts for their free group, please share that info with the male avatars in your life!) and there's even a Christmas tree in front of the ladies' calendar with a lucky giftbox beneath. The chairs change every minute, so you can hang out for a relatively short time and win an impressive array of outfits like I did :) Many of the prizes can be found in different colors among the many possibilities, so you could win the same thing in a few hues to really spice up your wardrobe. Remember that the "?" wildcard means anyone can sit and win, so you get to look for that and your own initial for two chances to win.


My first look of the evening is the most recent group gift, called EC Colette Outfit Red. If left click - deliver doesn't work (it did not for me), you will want to right click the sign and pay $1L, which is immediately refunded while the gift is delivered to you. This fun mini dress has sculpted roses on the front of the frilly hem, and a playful Paris themed pattern. It fits Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. The matching strappy heels come in Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink high sizing so they coordinate well with our dress sizes. The other gifts are from various times of the year, so I saw a Christmas one and a Saint Patrick's Day themed treat among many others whose timing is less obvious. All are terrific!


Over to our lucky chairs, one I was delighted to win is this EC Niu Outfit Cobalt with its vibrant colors and flirty style. The top and skirt are each included in sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies, with shoes designed for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink high feet. The keyhole opening and Mandarin style collar are so pretty, and I was intrigued to see the waist dip slightly both front and back on our skirt.


I also won the charming EC Abigail Dress Mint from a lucky chair, as well as the same Abigail in at least one other color :) I am very fond of soft shades of green like this one, and how could I resist that plunging sweetheart neckline with detached ruffled sleeves? There are sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies for the dress, as well as matching strappy heels in Belleza, Legacy, Maitreya, and Slink high sizing. The tied belt is a great touch, and the hemline is short enough to provide quite a cheeky rear view. 


The stunning EC Daisy White Dress was also from a lucky chair, and I certainly do feel fortunate to be able to add this to my wardrobe for free. It is a beautiful wrap dress with straps that cross in the back and tiny ruffles decorating the front, in sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. The fabric pattern has several different types of daisies on it from what I can see, while the monochromatic color palette keeps it from being overly girlie if that is a concern for you :) I have my girlie moods for sure, among countless other style leanings depending on the day.


For my final look tonight, I changed into another lucky chair goodie called EC Raz Romper Pink Denim. There are standard mesh sizes included, as well as sizing for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP bodies. The embossed panels down each side are matched by the top of the detached sleeves, and both sleeves and top ruffle have sheer sections between deeper pink edging for a delicate, romantic look. I have never worn a one piece shorts romper in RL that I can recall, but absolutely appreciate them in SL where all we have to do is add some cute shoes, a touch of jewelry or two, and we are looking sexy and well put together in a cinch :) Pink is not the only color I saw this in among the lucky chair possibilities, so if it isn't your jam, just hang around a bit and you might win another hue. 

It was a busy day with lots to process, as my family doctor is concerned about various persistent symptoms (nothing life-threatening) and suggested a few potential changes. So I have decisions to make, and a few specialists to see after the holidays. Somehow I brain-farted and forgot to get my blood tests before the visit, as the past few weeks have been chaotic. It is the best way to tell how my thyroid is behaving and if the meds are helping at all, so I'll get that done right after the holidays too. Looks like the last week of 2022 is going to be spent making appointments and getting blood drawn, LOL, not all that exciting but necessary. I am most likely going to dinner tomorrow at my parents', where I will get to hear about my godmother's viewing/funeral so at least somewhat somber of an evening. I'll do my best to lighten the mood when appropriate, even if I have to whip out a cute animal video to do so :) We are having a lot of wind with our rain here, so I've lost power twice so far today including once while I was, umm, indisposed, which was like a nightmare come to life for a brief moment. Fingers crossed that things calm down so no more power losses. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
