Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm diving back into the Swank Event gifts, as I have tons that I just can't wait to show all of you. The 10th anniversary round is open until the end of the month, and in that time they have established the Swank event as a reliable source of top designers offering new releases at great prices. They also do love a good celebration with group gifts for all :) These treats are found in gold and glass baubles/balls with a number 10 in the middle, so even their containers are beautiful. I also want to remind you that there are a few men's gifts among these treasures, so spread that news and bring a male avatared friend or two.
My first outfit of the evening is the [4U] ~ CASUAL Collection ~ 002 gift. This charming bare-shouldered top and ripped jeans are each provided in Freya, Isis, Legacy, and Maitreya sizes, and since they are separates they can be worn together or individually with other favorites. The floral pattern on the blouse is mirrored in the blossoms on the right front pocket area of the jeans, a noteworthy detail just like the built in belt of our pertly cuffed jeans.
Next we see the AXE-DRESS GWEN / 06 which is one of the gifts from the AXE Store. This beauty includes the well-matched top and skirt in sizing for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra Bimbo, Low, Original, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. Then we can pair them with neutral black heels that fit Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, and Slink feet. They have gold at the ankle and draped down the heel, which matches the clasps on both the top and diagonal hemmed skirt.
This sexy outfit is our *ASIA* FIONA pink gift, and it is sure to turn heads! The dress and panties are provided in Belleza Classic, Belleza Classic Dainty, Belleza Curvy, Belleza Curvy Dainty, Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, Peach, and Reborn mesh body sizes, with towering heels that fit Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn feet. The fingerless gloves are a BOM layer and they are no-copy, which I mention since they will not unpack correctly unless you rez out the package and open it the traditional way. That should serve as your reminder that anything you add to unpack that is labeled "no copy" may not be delivering all of its contents, since we are technically copying those items into our inventory and you cannot copy an item while it's attached to you. I love unpacking HUDs, but I've learned over time to be careful and check those permissions :)
Another terrific gift I get to show off tonight is the LUXE Paris CONGO Dress. Its bare shoulders are great for these in-between weather days where it is still warm but occasionally breezy, and the bold stripes are interspersed with animal prints to great effect. This gift includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizes.
My final look of the night is the Ahlure - Clara Outfit gift, just in time for autumn with those long sleeves and lush knit pattern :) The top and skirt each fit Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, and we also receive a HUD with 12 colors each for the top, skirt up, and skirt low. The skirt up refers to the broad waistband, and the skirt low would be the remainder of this pretty pleated micro mini skirt. What type of color combo would make you happiest for this outfit? I like contrasting the waistband and skirt, but all tinted the same makes for a very sleek appearance that also looks wonderful.
It was a quiet day and an overly politics-filled evening, LOL, so I am very much looking forward to heading into SL later to unwind with Xan and prepare my next blog post. It's 77 degrees in my office right now, so I don't think Mother Nature is ready to let go of summer just yet...perhaps like me, she's having hot flashes :P My feet are chilly though, oddly enough, so I think I'll be donning some slipper socks in a moment. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
