Hiya everyone! Tonight we're headed to the SWANK Event, where their current round is A Celebration of Colors. We've got plenty of rainbows and Pride themed merchandise, and if you join their free group you can claim dozens of gifts by clicking each rainbow-striped flame you see :) It is a large event with two floors, so pick any direction and walk in (we land in the center of an open square) and start exploring. The participating designers are always so generous with the event gifts here, and I'm sure to spend a few different days sharing examples of the many treats that can be yours for visiting.
My first look for the evening is our [C.YFashion]*PRIDE2024*Mini Dress gift, one of two I found there so there is one for the guys as well as this ladies look. The dress has the appearance of separate pieces but is worn as one, in sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Bombshell, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. There's also a HUD included, with 10 textures apiece for the top, skirt, and belt, along with 3 metals. I'd like to note that most of the sizes are no-copy and cannot therefore be unpacked (copied!) into your inventory while attached or held. So please rez out and unpack the traditional way, or you'll wind up with a folder that contains only one size like I did at first ;) It's a good reminder to always make sure your unpacker HUD isn't showing 'no copy' or you will probably wind up missing something. I really love the textures they chose to offer on the HUD so I had a great time experimenting with it.
Next I changed into the charming Cherry Up! Lyla Top & Skirt Gift. The single shoulder top and miniskirt with teeny back pockets are each packed separately. The top says "Love More, Worry Less" which is excellent advice :) It comes in eBody Reborn, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, and Maitreya mesh body sizes. The skirt fits eBody Reborn, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya bodies so all the same except the perky breast mod size is not needed for a skirt. The store name is particularly appropriate since the colors remind me of cherry blossoms for the skirt and the actual fruit for the top. What does the combo of red and pink make you think of?
I couldn't resist sharing the Ahlure - Clara Outfit, a fun combo of cropped sweater and extra short pleated miniskirt. Each of those is provided in Lara X, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes, with a HUD that lets us select from 12 colors each for the top, skirt-upper and skirt-lower. I always enjoy a good knit texture, and the array of colors makes it even more special :)
Hawkers House is offering their beautiful *HH* Brittaany Rusched Dress Pride as one of two (male and female) gifts. The gradient of colors really does cover much of the rainbow, and the style of the dress is a playful one, drawn on the left side of the skirt and tied with dangling bow. There are sizes for Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Reborn bodies. My favorite detail is either the gathered skirt or the waist opening, hard to decide ;)
My final look of the evening is perfect for a summer vacation, or a dive into your favorite SL pool :) The [ZENESSA] ASHLEY BODYSUIT NEW! gift consists of Belleza Classic, Belleza Curvy, Erika, Kupra, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Bombshell, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. You guessed there's a HUD too, right? Well that has 20 colors each for the upper half, lower half, and sparkly gemstone in the middle, plus 5 metals for the hardware surrounding the gem. I accidentally made the combo of front and back views look patriotic with red white and blue, LOL, but I really just wanted you to see the way it looks like a two piece from behind :)
Monday, Monday...I forget how that old song goes actually...I'm listening to American Pie by Don McLean at the moment. Did you ever read the explanation of those lyrics? So much meaning and back story, it is a fascinating one. It was a quiet day and I am a fan of those, LOL, and tomorrow's post will be filled with more Swanky treats for all of you to enjoy. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
