Shop and Hop Is Golden

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm sharing several more gifts you can find at the Valentine Shop & Hop event, with all of this post's treats found in the Golden region. There is about a week remaining until they close the doors on the 19th, and with 14 regions to explore with 20 designers each, there is plenty to see and do :) Anytime there is a round of Shop & Hop, no matter which season or holiday, I am going to be there and too excited for words! Special sales, free gifts, and beautifully decorated areas to match each theme are all worth the visits even if there is a bit of lag in the earliest days. 


My first look of the evening combines both gifts from *Shining* which are their Valentine Dress and Valentine Heels. Let's start with the dress, which includes black, red, and white versions each in sizing for Erika, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. Each color has a contrasting belt of one of the other hues, and the cap sleeves are a cute touch above that full skirt. Then the heels will fit Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, and Slink feet, while including a 6 texture HUD to change their look. Lots of hearts, just right for this time of year or whenever you are feeling romantic.


Next I changed into the adorable -Pixicat- Tindra Dress (Tiger) gift. This sailor dress has a brief skirt and cleverly designed collar, and the unpacker HUD lets us choose from Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Maitreya Flat sizes while only unpacking the size/s that we need. The folder it delivers also contains a HUD with 24 collar/sleeve cuff colors each in solid or striped versions, which either has a colored stripe on white collar or solid hued trim with white striping. The pattern has tigers with flowers scattered about, so it lends a tough feminine quality.


Another versatile dress can be found as our gift from Neve, simply called neve gift - ponder valentine 2023. There are sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies, with a HUD offering 4 colors for the hearts on the skirt as well as options to turn the shine and alpha off/on. The alpha is the way the lace trim at the hem is viewed, so if you want to wear another item with transparency (stockings for example) they won't interfere with each other if you turn the alpha off but it will make the lace look thicker and more solid. I have both turned on in these photos, and the solid top of the dress does have a bit more sheen to it :)


Your avatar deserves a sweet treat, and one of many at this event is the gift from The Wino Mino. Their [WM] Sucker for Love lollipops or suckers have two versions, the bento hold in my right hand and the mouth attachment both shown above. Do you think it's cherry or strawberry? I'm leaning towards strawberry myself, although a fruit punch type flavor would be nice too. 


I'm wrapping up my pre-Valentine weekend with the racy red zOOm - Valentine Gift. The sheer lace minidress and solid thong panties each come in Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes, and I love the combo of high neckline and long sleeves contrasted against the sexy see-through nature of the dress, and let's not forget that nearly waist-high slit on the left thigh!

It was a fairly good weekend here, starting with my usual farmers market visit and all the yummy offerings I always find there. The talk was almost all about the big game, as we are near one of the teams involved (the one who lost, sigh) and the hype was major. I don't follow that sport but wanted my home team to do well, and I enjoy the commercials and halftime shows ;) I watched the Puppy Bowl, where the players are always cute even if one tinkled on the field during the national anthem, LOL! They do well getting dogs adopted, and remind people to consider senior and special needs animals, so it's not just the cute young pups getting forever homes. My hockey team lost two games this weekend though, so it wasn't all sunshine and roses. That's okay though, there are plenty of games left in the season and I will see them do well again. I hope you all enjoyed your weekend and are having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
