Flirty Floyd Freebies

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are taking a peek at more of the FLOYD group gifts available, and I am hoping you will be as impressed as I am by their generosity. There is a wall of gifts with a sign to join their free group, and their general style is very flirty thanks to lingerie and swimwear in addition to the lovely casual dresses and outfits. Personally I found it so hard to narrow down to just a few gifts that I was eager to show you, that I had to do a second post :) Just think, you get to claim as many as you want for free, so no decisions needed except which look to wear first. As I mentioned yesterday, you might want to rez these out and unpack them the traditional way instead of adding to unpack, as there are no-copy items inside some of them and those cannot be unpacked from an attached object. I don't want you to miss out on any of the contents :)

I'm starting this evening with swimwear which shows that their fun fashions have summer on my mind. This is their .:FLOYD:.Noela Bikini Fatpack (Gift) and consists of Legacy and Maitreya size unpackers each with 10 numbered versions inside. It straddles the line between bikini and one-piece swimwear since they each are one piece, connected by those sexy crossed straps, and the rear view is very revealing as you can imagine. I am a huge fan of heart patterns like this, and all the various color combos keep it from feeling Valentine-ish.

If you also want a more modest one-piece suit, be sure to claim the .:FLOYD:.Charlotta Group Gift which can also double as a bodysuit. This is designed to fit the Maitreya mesh body, and there are 8 different versions included. Just try each one on and see which color suits your mood :) That subtle pattern makes me think tiger print or zebra print, but in different hues that are quite fun. 

Next I turned up the heat with the .:FLOYD:.Horatia Maitreya Dress Gift, a lacy confection that barely covers things up top and is short enough not to fully cover things down below. As the name alludes to, it is designed for the Maitreya Lara body, and I think I'd need some panties or even a pair of garters/stockings to complete this look. The lace edging is so beautiful, isn't it?

The .:FLOYD:.Zenobia Exclusive Gift Edition is a combination of bikini top and panties with an itty bitty skirt, and these each come in sizing for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. I love the yellow leopard print against the bright blue, and the skirt seems to echo the pattern in a much softer version. I also took this opportunity to show off one of their tattoo gifts, the .:FLOYD:.Modella Arm Tattoo (Gift). It is a system/BOM layer, so it will work for any BOM-compatible mesh body as well as classic avatars. It is softly faded and has lots of intricate artwork, like skulls, flowers, koi, and a scale pattern on the back of the arms. Love it!

One more treat to help you get ready for the upcoming weekend is the .:FLOYD:.Meredith Dress Fatpack (Gift) seen here. There are Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya unpackers included, with 8 funky patterns on each dress inside. They are numbered rather than named, so I had fun trying them all on and trying to pick which ones to share. Does the circle print on the right remind anyone else of a retro, maybe 70s style? I got a kick out of the way the circles aren't all perfectly centered so it's got added visual interest. 70s and 80s styles always have a soft spot in my heart thanks to childhood memories. 

Quick hair note of the night: Truth Hair's newest release, a collaboration with Wasabi called Bestie, which can be found at Uber this round. It has 4 sizes and 2 optional bangs add-ons, the second of which I'm wearing tonight. Strong 80s vibes, just a generally cute and fun style I couldn't resist. They are also releasing their newest VIP group gift soon, so I may be changing hair again extra quickly ;) 

It was a quiet day since I'm waiting for my mom to hear back from the cousins about the Easter plans, and can really do nothing before then. Actually I'm part of the email chain, so I will see if they reply too as long as they hit reply all. Yes I am giggling at how 90s or 00s that sentence sounded ;) She knows how to text so I am surprised she chose email instead, but as long as they get it and reply I am happy. The evening held a chaotic hockey game where at one point my team had more fights than shots on goal, which is not a good sign. You can't score if you don't shoot, as they obviously should know, and our former captain scored against us which broke my heart a bit. He is better off with his new team, unfortunately for us, but I am honest and realistic enough to acknowledge it. Tomorrow is my usual dinner with the parents, hehe, and I expect lots of talk about the upcoming holiday even if we don't hear back from the cousins yet. I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

FLOYD Group Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I realized it had been a while since I shared any of the FLOYD group gifts, which are plentiful and for their store group which is free to join. Their style packs a lot of sex appeal into these fashions, whether dresses, casual wear, lingerie, or swimwear. There are a few tattoos on the wall as well, so if you are looking for new and affordable body art then look no further :) I feel like with the warmer weather ahead, it will make sense to be less bundled up and wearing a bit more revealing clothing, or at least that's my excuse ;) I strongly suggest checking the contents (add, right click, edit, contents tab) to see if there are no-copy items in any of these unpacking HUDs, as several were and I had to rez them out to unpack the traditional way. If you don't have a home in SL then be sure to open these at a public sandbox :)

My first look of the evening is the .:FLOYD:.Jordan (Group Gift), which is either a bodysuit or a swimsuit because honestly I cannot tell the difference half the time ;) That just means they are versatile enough to be either. There are separate unpacker HUDs inside for eBody Curvy, Legacy, Perky, and Maitreya bodies, with 8 versions inside each one. They are numbered rather than named, so it is a fun surprise to try each one on and see the various zigzag color combinations. The style has relatively modest coverage so I think it would work as a bathing suit for a family friendly area.

Meanwhile the .:FLOYD:.Octavia Maitreya Swimsuit Fullpack is definitely more revealing, both front and back, but I am not complaining! As the name indicates it is designed for the Maitreya mesh body, and there are 16 different color combinations included in this generous pack. The assortment of hues means that trying each numbered suit on gives us a double splash of color. 

Next I slipped into the .:FLOYD:.Jade (Group Gift) dress, well two of its lovely varieties that is :) The unpacker HUDs inside the main HUD are for eBody Curvy, Freya, Hourglass, and Maitreya, with 6 beautiful dresses inside for each. The exception to that is the Maitreya only contains 5 (numbers 2-6) but the five it contains are all terrific so I am still very grateful for our free gifts ♥. I don't just say that to be polite, even if it would be rude to complain about free gifts, but I really truly do appreciate that I would have very little to share here without the generosity of designers like this, and missing one dress in 'my' size is not the end of the world by any means. Those neon colored hibiscus flowers have me craving summer, how about you?

You may not notice at first glance, but the .:FLOYD:.Ryza (Group Gift) is sheer in addition to being so shiny! The texture has that latex type sheen, and the gift comes in Freya, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizes. If you look closely at the skirt, you can see the outline of my legs and even bum cleavage in the rear view. That in addition to the midriff cutout and small hemline notch in the back are extra sexy details of this one-shouldered delight.

For my final look of the evening, I am enjoying the .:FLOYD:.Lore Dress Fatpack (Gift) in two of its 5 gorgeous colors. There are sizes for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies, each packaged separately so you only have to open the sizes you need. I love the cutouts on both sides, showing off a touch of midriff, and that short hemline is sure to turn heads. Sexy!

I had a tiring day, thanks to being on my way to bed when my mom decided we absolutely had to talk on the phone...an hour later I finally convinced her that I needed some rest. It was partly my fault for pointing out that her younger nephew's Muslim wife is going to be observing Ramadan next Sunday when we are expecting them for Easter with my grandmother. That means she'll be fasting, and I was concerned about how to handle that since we've never done an Easter dinner with them before. Truth be told, we haven't done anything special for Easter since I was a child but we used to visit my grandparents who would give us baskets. Then my uncle converted to a different denomination and got married, so his wife and eventually their kids did their own (religious) thing. This year my mom decided that my grandmother is lonely, and here we are planning all sorts of chaos ;) I adore my cousins and their wives, so it isn't that I don't want to see them. I just hate planning food that is gluten free, not spicy, and pescatarian friendly, all without knowing what the cousins are bringing so duplication could happen or worse a huge gap where one group cannot eat anything at all. The snarky part of me wants to just bring a bottle of water or a head of lettuce, lol, but I will do whatever my mom needs. I hope you're all having a peaceful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Gifts From Scandalize

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I dove back into the many group gifts from Scandalize, for their currently free store group. I'm still part of their old group ($20L to join) but these were all set for the newer group which has no fee to join at this time. To find the 2 buildings full of group gifts, you'll need to walk into the Scandalize store (there are others in that landing area) and look for the area on the right that has a few newest group gifts and a sign that we can click to teleport to the 200+ gifts. How generous is that?! I cannot resist showing you another handful of these impressive treats, many of which are fatpacks with plenty of colors and textures.

First I slipped into the SCANDALIZE. Sayria. FATPACK group gift. Its bare shouldered, tied top and slit skirt with buttons down the left side are each provided in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh body sizes. There are also 2 HUDs- the main with 42 solids and 22 ombres for the top, 42 hues for the skirt, and 42 for the waist, and a button HUD with 42 colors apiece for the top, skirt, and skirt strap. I can never resist an outfit that is flirty without being overly revealing, so I can wear it almost anywhere.

I also picked up this lovely Scandalize. Niah. FATPACK from among the many group gifts. There are two versions of the dress, with and without sleeves, and an identical top in the same 2 varieties, all in sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies. The main HUD has 42 colors each for the dress, arms, and ruffles, with 22 ombre choices for the dress itself. We also receive a rope HUD with 42 colors for that intricate harness, and an off button in case you wish to wear the dress or top without it as I have on the right. So versatile!

The Scandalize. STELLA dress is a fascinating design with peekaboo cutouts on the bodice and a unique hemline that certainly caught my eye :) We receive Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes each in 5 colors - blue, coral, cream (left above), green (right), and white. The mandala pattern on the fabric is just beautiful, and all of the versions provided are equally appealing in my eyes. It might be hypnotizing so don't stare too long ;)

This eye-popping beauty is the Scandalize. Noooo. FATPACK group gift. It comes in sizing for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies, with HUDs for solid and PVC (shinier!) textures in 42 colors each for top, waist, and skirt. The transparency HUD works wonders on the sheer section of the dress, with 42 colors each as solid or PVC so even the sheer part gets a little sheen if you wish. Those side cutouts on the skirt are quite daring, aren't they?

My final look of the night is our Scandalize. Valvena. GIFT, taking things down a casual yet playful path. The bikini top and paper bag style pants are each provided in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes. The straps/waist/breast HUD offers 43 colors for each section in its name, while the metals/belt/pants HUD has 2 metal options and 43 colors apiece for the belt and pants. That is a lot of potential for mixing and matching, as with most of these wonderful gifts. 

I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Scandalous

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting Scandalize and teleporting up to their group gifts outlet, where you can find over 200 generous gifts that are for their free group. If my SLurl link doesn't take you directly there, just go into the Scandalize store and there are a few group gifts in that main area, with a sign you can click to teleport up to this location :) Most of these group gifts are fatpacks with HUDs so we can change the looks easily anytime we wish, and I have been a huge fan of texture HUDs since they first became popular several years ago. 

My first look is the SCANDALIZE. Anny. FATPACK group gift, a short sweater dress with panties and long socks. Each piece is provided in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, with plenty of HUDs to customize the appearance. The sweater HUD offers 42 colors each for sweater, ruffles, and cuffs, while the socks HUD lets us choose from 42 matching shades for the socks and cuffs. There is even a panty HUD to tint it any one of the same 42 pretty colors.

We can get ready for warm weather with the Scandalize. Hannna. FATPACK group gift :) The top has a plunging draped neckline and long sleeves, while the frayed denim shorts have an attached belt that dangles down the leg in front. We receive sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya of each piece, then we get to play with the color HUDs...the outfit HUD has 42 colors each for the top and the fringe on the shorts, with 22 ombres, 7 solid denim hues, and 8 patterned denims for the shorts. The belt HUD has 42 colors each as solid, warning, or caution which are words printed all over the belt. As always, I had so much fun playing with the HUDs!

If you need something a little fancier, we have a mini dress gift that has feathery fringe and sheer panels called SCANDALIZE. Alasa. FATPACK. There are Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya sizes included, with handy HUDs of course :) The HUD for the top has 42 colors each in solid and glitter, with the skirt HUD offering the same colors and options. The metals/transparency HUD lets us choose from 42 colors for the transparent sections and 4 colors for the metal studs dotted in the sheer part. I chose the black on the right above, both to match the top and to show it off better in a photo.

Next I slipped into the Scandalize. NADIA DRESS gift, a strapless mini with bold slits on each side to bare most of the hips. The gift includes sizing for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies, and there is a HUD with 30 textures each for the top, belt, and skirt. There is a mix of solids and patterns, so we can get very creative and mix things up however we wish. 

My final look of the evening is perfect for spring or summer, or just enjoying a warmer weather region inworld. It is the Scandalize. Flarya. FATPACK group gift, and includes the top, sleeves, and shorts in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes. Did you guess we get HUDs too? ;) The HUD for the top has 42 solids and 22 stripes each for top, ruffles, and sleeves, while the shorts HUD has 42 solids and 22 stripes for the shorts and waist with 22 solids for the laces in front. There is also a HUD for the metals with 42 lovely options. The laces on the top change with the main shirt HUD button, so that is always coordinated nicely.

Today was a fairly typical Monday I guess, and I am eager for April to arrive soon and bring new goodies for us to enjoy :) I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Third Life Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have several group gifts for the Third Life group to show you, and I have a bonus surprise tidbit - when I peeked at the group's profile (I was already a longtime member) to check to make sure it was still just $10L to join, I saw that it is currently free instead :) So if you haven't joined yet, you can even save what I was going to describe as a very modest fee. There are so many sales and special deals available at the participating stores that putting those savings to good use will be easy breezy. All of the outfits I'm sharing tonight are free gifts though, just have your Third Life group tag active and visit each location.

My first look this evening is the Petry Model--> Dress DGBO gift for Third Life. This strapless mini is gathered and knotted at the left thigh for an extra sexy appearance, and it comes in sizing for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. The rich berry color is delicately striped which is a very flattering detail, so I am obviously very grateful for this free gift.

I also visited MONOMANIA and eagerly claimed their Lumia Sky gift for us. It is a gorgeously colored, flirty dress with side cutouts that lead to an intricate back with straps and buckles holding things in place. The short skirt even has slits on both hips for even more flashes of skin :) This gift is provided in 5 standard mesh sizes along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh body versions.

Do you need an extra pop of leopard print in your wardrobe? Trick question, the answer is always yes and especially when it comes in the form of the {Le'La} Siyra Dress Gift! Go upstairs and head towards the group gifts section, where among many others you'll find this daring dress in Freya, Kupra Bimbo, Kupra Original, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite sizes. The top is draped low and loose, just like the back which even reveals a bit of bum cleavage. Our hips each have a trio of gold chains that match the fabric's pattern quite well, while drawing attention to the playful styling.

Is it getting hot in here, or is it just me because of this dress? This is the Denisa dress by Blackbird Lace Gift, another store with lots of generous group gifts waiting upstairs for us :) The pale gold trim matches the overlay perfectly, and thanks to the sheer panels this dress shows off a lot of skin (yes, more bum cleavage) while covering most of the essentials. With all the metallic shine, I don't even feel the need to add much jewelry to jazz things up...just pick a favorite pair of shoes in a neutral color and we are all set.

For my final look of the night, we visit THE BEST OF ME to pick up their sexy gift of ::T.B.O.M::Camo Girl Skirt Outfit. The bralet is provided in fitmesh standard sizes plus Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink sizing, and the matching skirt has standard mesh sizes as well as those to fit Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, and Physique mesh bodies. We also receive system/BOM layers and an Omega applier for the black lace stockings I'm wearing here, and honestly I will probably wind up wearing them with other random outfits in my inventory too :) If this store's name is familiar to you, it could be because they are very generous with gifts for various groups and seem to change them out regularly so there is always something new awaiting.

My weekend took several odd turns, but things have somewhat calmed down so I am taking a few deep breaths and trying to relax :) It started raining not long after I got to the farmers market yesterday, and the last tent I stopped at had a lot of rainwater built up on top so it dumped it all on my head and down my back! It was like when a coach gets gatorade dumped on him from winning a big game, LOL, only I didn't win anything...just as I was hoping nobody noticed, I realized several vendors were gasping and making ooohh noises, so yeah that was embarrassing. The woman whose tent it was didn't even know how to react at first until I burst out laughing, since what else could I really do? There were paper towels in the car so my hair didn't cause too much mess, and I got changed as soon as I got home. An out-of-state family member had a health crisis but seems to be stable now, so that has been a huge relief. He is in his 80s and was already in poor health, so any sudden issue can seem grim. That was the reason for the odd turns, as more updates came in about that situation. I hope you all enjoyed your weekend and are having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Treats From Off-Line

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are exploring the wonderful "Off-Line" store, who are currently offering several gifts for their free store group. One is right outside the front door, while the others are inside on a wall just past the front desk. The wall has information on it about their VIP group as well, but all of the gifts I'm sharing are available to their free group :) The writing on the wall (LOL) mentions 6-8 new gifts each month, so these March ones might get swapped out in a week or so which is a good reason to get there promptly. If you don't read this right away or have a busy week ahead, I'm sure April's gifts will be terrific too! I truly enjoy their style, casual and sexy with an urban touch. 

First we see the playful "Off-Line" x "Sophia" Bodysuit / Fatpack, which is the gift out front of the store. There are Freyal Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh body sizes included, with a HUD that offers 28 beautiful colors. I love the way the front is twisted, almost looks like a necktie at first glance but I also noticed the left side is pulled through the right side like it is a loop. Very intriguing :)

The "Off-Line" x "Nicky" Set FP gift is another generous fatpack, this time with each size packed in its own unpacker HUD. Open the Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, or Maitreya pack to find a top and skirt each in 20 terrific colors, many with delicious sounding names. I'm wearing the lemon top and periwinkle skirt on the left above, with the spring top and cantaloupe skirt on the right. The knit texture is so well done, and the cropped length of the sweater plus its playful opening are just right to show off a little skin while still being appropriate for most places you'll visit in it.

Next I slipped into the "Off-Line" x "Jessy" Set / Fatpack, a gift consisting of separate unpacker HUDs each for Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh bodies. Each of those holds the bandeau top in 14 colors and the denim shorts in 9 hues, and I adore them all! The pairing on the left is the mango bandeau and darkest shorts, while the right side shows the purple bandeau and white shorts. The shorts are just brief enough to provide a slightly cheeky rear view, but all essentials  are covered. Will you wear this outfit with sandals, heels, or sneakers?

Let's head to the beach in our new "Off-Line" x "Jenna" Bikini / Fatpack gift! With all the colors and textures possible, a bunch of us could wear it at once and look coordinated but not twinning ;) The bikini top, bikini bottom, and itty bitty shorts each fit Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies, and we receive 2 HUDs to customize the look. The bikini HUD has 20 colors each in classic, bandana, or swirl textures, with each round button being divided in half so you can click the top half for the bikini top, and bottom for the bottoms. This does allow us to mix and match, and the shorts HUD has similar buttons in 7 colors each of solid and swirl, with the top being white pockets and the bottom giving black pockets. I so appreciate this much variety, all the possibilities!

For my final look tonight, I am sporting two of the 20 colors of the "Off-Line" x "Evie" Dress / Fatpack gift. They are packaged by size, and include Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya unpacker HUDs. I'm wearing the marzipan color on the left, and turquoise on the right. The softly dotted fabric is rather sheer, and the straps are just delightful :) The horizontal band beneath the crossed straps on the back would really help hold things in place, so it does make sense as well as being very pretty. Lots of their colors are named for fruits or sweet treats, so if someone tells you that you look tasty, don't be surprised.

My day started weird but somehow worked out in the end, thanks to a sudden change of plans from my parents. My mom messaged early this morning asking if we could do dinner tomorrow night instead because they might not be home in time (an errand for my grandmother) and I asked if we could make that lunch instead, and it just got confusing for a bit. In the end, they got home in time and she said come on over, so I did :) Being responsible for an elderly parent can certainly get complicated, but all is fine and she just needed a new hospital type bed and will be getting a device to help the aide lift her (Hoyer lift?) soon too. She is tiny but cannot move so can't help when someone lifts her, making the device a necessity. We were able to enjoy dinner together and will be seeing each other at the farmers market in the morning, which I am looking forward to despite the rainy weather. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Group Gifts and Saturday Sale

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I was in the mood for variety, so I visited some stores who are part of the Mesh Body Friends group and looked for some MBF group gifts. And yes, I did find several that it is my pleasure to share :) The group is free to join, and a good source of information on sales and new releases as well as these gifts. Then for added variety, I have a wonderful sneak peek for you...the Saturday Sale offers from Entice for this round! It will only be a couple of hours early when this post goes live, so you won't have to wait very long to save lots of lindens on these amazing looks.

Our first stop of the evening is the always generous YoU by GeMyles, where I happily picked up the MBF group gift called Jenee Dress. It includes the dress and boots, each in sizing for Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies. There is also a handy HUD with 32 lovely colors we can use to tint the dress, while the sexy belt on the right hip stays black to match the peeptoe boots. To claim this, please right click the vendor image and pay $1L, which will be automatically refunded as the gift is delivered to you.

Another generous gift that includes both dress and footwear is our HERO - Giorgia Outfit. I am a fan of animal prints so this certainly caught my eye, and the strapless mini comes in Altamura Sofia, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Signature Alice, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine sizes. The strappy boots fit Altamura Sofia, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, but this dress would look just as appealing with any footwear you wish. I certainly do appreciate having matching or coordinated shoes included in an outfit though :)

[WellMade] is always a fantastic place to visit, so I was not surprised to find the terrific Isabela Dress GIFT among the treats for various groups there. We receive black and brown versions of this single shoulder, asymmetrical dress in sizes for eBody Reborn, Erika, Kupra, Kups, Kupra Squeeze, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. The brown is a deep enough shade that the distinction is subtle, yet I'm very glad to have both choices :) I think the dark neutrals will lend themselves very well to accessorizing to dress up or down, add color or keep a monochromatic style, it's all up to you and your personal tastes.

I also stopped by AlmaMiranda, whose offering for the group is simply called Mesh Body Friends gift 07-22. It does have a summery feel which I am grateful for, and fits Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. The deep scooped neckline is framed with a hot pink ruffle to match the trim on the skirt and the flowers in the pretty pattern. The ruffle reminds me of a Hawaiian flower lei somehow, just part of the tropical flavor perhaps. Now I really need to wear this to a Hawaiian themed region!

For my final look this evening, I invite you to Entice to check out the Saturday Sale event offerings there this round. They have 9 new releases, fresh new versions each of their Cherry Popsicle Top and Cherry Popsicle Skirt & Panties for just $50L apiece. I'm wearing the top and skirt/panties in Hearts on the left, while on the right I paired the Butterflies top with the Navy skirt & panties set. Each of these contain sizing for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite bodies, and the skirt and panties are individual pieces so you can wear either separately if you wish. Now if you haven't purchased all of the original releases yet, good news - they are on sale 50% off during the Saturday Sale timeframe too! That would be from the 24th to the 30th, so this Friday to the following Thursday. There are individual pieces as well as fatpacks (Boho, LnL, Prints) with 2 exclusive bonus versions each, then the mega fatpack of all of those fatpacks. Please note the new ones are not included in any fatpacks, as they are brand new for this sale :) Okay, who's coming to a tropical island with me?

It was a quiet day and a hockey-filled evening, as I wound up watching 2 games in a row that both turned out the way I wanted. Tomorrow evening is dinner with my parents as usual for a Friday, and I am definitely looking forward to it. My cousin asked about our great grandfather and when he immigrated, and my mom found some very old paperwork like birth certificates and marriage certificates for her father's parents, born 1881 and 1884 (same town in Italy) I think it was. They came through Ellis Island, and she found a naturalization card of some sort (green card?) but there was no issue date on it. Genealogy is not my field of expertise, but his wife has an interest so she might be working on a family tree for him. I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Still Feeling Devilish

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have a few more sexy treats from [D'eVil] Shop to share, and like I mentioned yesterday these are completely free with no group necessary to claim them. Just visit and click each vendor image to receive these amazing latex and leather creations that all fit the Maitreya mesh body. I was so impressed with everything I saw, and the designer certainly deserves a donation in their tip jar for all their hard work and generosity. 

My first look is the [D'eVil] Imo Dress, a hot mini dress with plenty of great details. There are cutouts on the sides leading to the plunging back, held in place with teeny ties and showing off a fun flash of booty cleavage. We receive a HUD with 5 textures as well as an RGB tint grid, which is what I used on the white texture to get the teal on the right above. 

The [D'eVil] Ancilla Dress has a fun apron style, and is deliciously revealing in the back :) Its HUD lets us select from 5 base textures, and has tinting as well as sliders for glossiness, environment, and transparency settings. As usual I suggest having fun playing with the buttons and seeing what look appeals to you the most. 

Next I changed into the [D'eVil] Isa Body gift, which contains 2 versions and two HUDs. I'm wearing the leather on the left and the latex on the right above, and there is a corresponding HUD for each with 5 textures each for 3 sections and tinting for 5 sections. The tintable parts are the cutout above the heart on the chest, and the zipper area in back. I love the mix of romance and sensuality, with the openings both front and back being heart shaped ♥. 

Latex looks terrific in solid colors of course, but the [D'eVil] Ami Dress demonstrates that it looks just as incredible in patterned textures! There are 5 unique prints to choose from via HUD, so I randomly picked two but truly enjoyed all of them :) The crisscrossed straps of our halter neckline certainly caught my eye, and the flared skirt is a lovely touch.

My final look this evening is full of possibilities :) The [D'eVil] Jani Dress includes several versions (all in the Maitreya size that is standard for this store) called latex, latex transparent 10%, latex transparent 20%, latex transparent 40%, leather rough, and leather smooth, then we have a leather HUD and a latex HUD. Each HUD has 5 textures each for 5 sections of the dress, and I'm wearing the latex transparent 10% on the left with the leather rough on the right. 

Do you ever feel like each time you leave the house for one reason, you wind up going several extra places because well, you're already out? That alone should give you a fair idea of how my day went ;) The podiatrist visit was fine though, and he said my toenails are looking healthier. I'll take that odd compliment, lol, no it really is reassuring that I am doing the right thing letting a pro take care of them every 9 weeks. I am a bit tired, naturally, but feeling relieved that things are okay. Tomorrow evening is a hockey game, and I have my dinner plans already so that's all good. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

The Devil Made Me Do It

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's title may make you wonder what the devil made me do, well in this case the answer is he (she?) made me look extra sexy!! The devil in question is the [D'eVil] Shop, where you can find Maitreya fashions with a strong adult twist, lots of latex and leather with straps and buckles galore. The best part is the price, as everything there is free with no group joining required. That's right, absolutely free to all! There is a donation tipjar so if you are so inclined I do recommend rewarding the designer for their generosity :) The vendor images we click to claim the gifts are mostly showing the items in black, so I was pleasantly surprised to unpack them and find texture/color HUDs for many of them. Variety makes me happy, but if you are one of those "I will stop wearing black when they invent a darker color" people, black is an option for every single outfit there. I randomly chose some of the gifts while trying to keep things fairly tame, vanilla you may say, but there are looks there that would be at home in a fetish club too ;) 

First we see the [D'eVil] Forki Dress, which comes in 4 colors: black, pink (on the right above), red (left), and white. All of those, like all of these items, are sized for Maitreya, so these descriptions ought to be fairly quick tonight :) This dress has long sleeves and ruffled trim on the deep V neck, very flattering in all its color choices. 

I genuinely gasped when I tried on the spectral version (left) of this gorgeous [D'eVil] Gia Dress! That is the animal on the right, then we also receive black, pink, red, and white solid colored shiny minis. The hemline is a bit shorter than that first look, and the strapless style has plenty of appeal. I am all about that sheen though!

The [D'eVil] Utamu outfit contains the top and two different skirts, as well as two HUDs to customize this look exactly the way you desire. The latex coloring HUD has an RGB type tinting grid, so you can choose absolutely any color for each of the 4 sections (top, top belt, skirt, skirt belt) and the texture HUD has 5 solid colors and 3 metals as well as glossiness and environment settings. When all else fails, click things and see what happens, experiment with the colors and have fun!

This playful bodysuit is the [D'eVil] Zethu Body gift, and like all the others I am still just marveling at the fact that it's free :) The HUD offers 5 base colors each for the main, zippers, and belt & garters sections, then we can tint each piece too if we wish with an RGB grid. I went purplish on the right there, after choosing the white for the base color to show the tinted shade best.

My final look of the evening is our [D'eVil] Aroha gift, a trio of separate pieces (top, corset, and skirt) with yet another wonderful HUD to make the look our own. There are 5 basic colors, then RGB tinting, each for the top, corset, zippers on the front of the corset, laces on the back of the corset, and then the skirt. The corset is smaller than my Maitreya waist, so I was glad that there are auto-hide scripts in these outfits :) That's right, it automatically hid my waist for me to help provide a more cinched appearance, and if your Maitreya body doesn't respond to the scripting then you'll want to use the body's HUD to alpha out that midsection. 

Hair note of the night - this is a newer release from Magika called Cordelia, a very pretty French twist style with leaves down one side where the pins go. The included HUD has some color choices including metallic hues like the gold I picked for them here, and of course the usual hundreds of hair color selections. Then because I love bangs, I added the Wispy Bangs which are one of three new group gifts for the Magika group. The bangs have a color HUD too, with the full range of shades so you can easily match whichever style you add them to. I figured I'd mention all this in case you recognized the Cordelia style but not the bangs part.

It has been an odd sort of day, which is unusual since I didn't go anywhere and you might think that means a nice quiet day, but chaos reigns somehow. I tried to do a few things and plan for tomorrow's appointment to get my toenails taken care of (yeah I know, eww and oww) but I met resistance at every step of the way. So I did what I could, watched a hockey game that my team actually won LOL, and now I am wondering which wickedly sexy gifts from this same store I will be showing you tomorrow. I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
