More Shop and Hop Treasures

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have several more Holiday Shop & Hop gifts to share, this time all found on the Chickory region. That is one of 16 regions packed with generous designers who are all offering discounted merchandise this round, as well as a gift for those of us who visit their displays. The regions are all decorated beautifully too, so wandering around during this last week of the event is a visual treat in addition to providing fantastic shopping and gift opportunities. 


My first look is the *CK* xmas set shop and hop from Candy Kitten, a versatile 3 piece outfit. The top, pants, and skirt are each included in eBody, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh body sizing. The sleeves are part of the top but have a detached appearance, and it says "For the LOVE of the Christmas" on the front with the O being replaced by a gnome. I really like the white front pockets on the pants, and the chain looped from the built in belt. The skirt has a belt built in too, and a panty layer for modesty since this skirt is short. Those cat head shaped buttons down its side are adorable too!


The big day of Christmas has passed, but the season doesn't have to end that exact moment of course. However I decided to show the Santa Gown from Salt & Pepper in a less traditional color scheme for said holiday, simply to prove that it doesn't have to be restricted to a single calendar date :) There are Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Reborn Juicy sizes provided on the unpacker HUD (only open the one you need if you wish) and a color HUD with 8 dress hues and 5 for our fur trim. It was defaulted to a red dress with white fur, so definitely festive, but I went with a berry satin and black fur. 


TO.KISKI is offering their lovely Rihanna Mini Dress [Emerald] as a gift for all, and I am so grateful! The flirty halter dress has gold chains for part of the straps that meet up at the nape of the neck, and a terrific shade of green with sparkly texturing. The gift includes Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes. 


For a warm seasonal look, be sure to stop by the MIDNA display to claim their Cozy Dress - WHITE *GIFT* for your own. There are Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite sizes included, in a wintry white shade that really shows off the knit texture beautifully. Now I just need to find a pair of boots (surely there are dozens hiding in my inventory) and perhaps some sparkly earrings for a touch of glitz, and I'm ready to brave the SL elements :)


For my final look of the night, I changed into the [LA] XmasSpirit Dress gift from Limited Addiction. The scalloped edges are sharp enough to resemble holly leaves, both on the flared sleeves and the short skirt, and the color combo is most certainly festive :) This gift consists of sizing for Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. I feel rather elflike in this, so perhaps I just need a Santa type hat and something with bells to feel extra jolly. 

It was a pretty good day here, warmer outside (but not what I'd call actually warm, just less frigid) and no traumatic dreams so I'm feeling positive :) The next couple of days should be calm, so I can catch up on rest and a few household things that I need to do. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
