Still Swanky

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have more SWANK event group gifts to share, as there were simply so many to appreciate that it warrants another evening's posting :) The group is free to join, and there are gifts at most of the displays although some merchants have multiple stands so you might only find one gift among their displays. I did notice that some designers have more than one gift out which is quite generous of them, showing the holiday spirit and inspiring me to pick up even more demos to try out and return for some shopping. This season we are usually focused on gifts for others in RL, but I think we still deserve to treat ourselves in SL because it helps the designers and boosts our moods to look extra special.


First we have the *HH* Ladies Mesh Cartique Sweater Cardinal gift, which also includes the classic jeans. Each piece is provided in standard mesh sizes along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizing. I paired this gift with another, the GAS [Holiday Boots Snowflake - 5 Colors w/HUD FATPACK]. These cute ankle boots have a cuff reminiscent of an elf outfit with a few bells decorating them, and will fit classic avatars and Altamura, Belleza, eBody, Maitreya, Slink, and Tonic feet. The provided HUD offers 5 colors each for the cuff, body of the boot, and the sole. There are also 2 metal choices for the bells, so lots of customization potential.


I also claimed this lovely gift which is from AnaSTyle and called Marian Pink. The dress is leaning more red than pink in my lighting, but I am absolutely not complaining since it is a great hue for this time of year. The dress comes in standard mesh sizes as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizes. The high heel mules are sized for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink high feet, and even the white bracelet is included and unrigged so you can adjust it as needed. 


Next we see a gift that is all about contrasts and ruffles :) The -Sentinus- Bethesa ruffled crop top and short set will fit Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, and turns heads with the single long sleeve, bare shoulder, and bared midriff. The accessorizing possibilities are endless, as you can go with more neutrals or pick a vibrant color to add as pops of brightness.


This sensual slip dress is the gift from Magnetic and is named Lumi. The black dress has a dark teal bodice and hem ruffle, and some daring side slits revealing both hips. There are Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes included in this gift. I can't decide if it was intended to be a dress or a nightie like lingerie, so I'll say it is up to you how you wish to wear it.


My final look this evening is a real head-turner that will look amazing this holiday or any time of year. It is the TO.KISKI - Spring Sequins. Cherry gift, and is provided in sizing for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. That sequined texture in festive red is just gorgeous, isn't it? The slit on the left hip is an incredible detail too, and I recommend finding a nice C-string (strapless panty) to wear beneath. 

A late night hockey game (on the west coast, I'm east) has me screaming and flailing, LOL, a bit distracting for blogging but still fun. Dinner was nice, my mom did what she called a practice run for a new gluten-free pizza crust that we could use on Christmas day when we all make our own pizzas. The woman whose crusts she used to buy just retired very recently, so we need an alternative and this new one had a good texture and flavor. I am not blogging tomorrow evening as my usual weekend break, but I will probably post some Advent gifts again on Sunday morning :) I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
