Candy Cane Wishes

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post is chock full of seasonal goodness from the CMH Candy Cane Wishes 4 hunt, where we are looking for (yep, you guessed it) a candy cane for each prize :) There are $1L prizes as well as $25L exclusives and $50L exclusive offerings hiding in them, so please check out their website to see which prices are at each location. It'll also provide you with sneak peeks and hint, plus the landmarks for each store, so it is definitely helpful as usual. I'm impressed as always with the variety and creativity, and am confident that you'll find prizes to treasure as much as I do.


My first look comes from GoodVibes and is their $25L exclusive for the hunt called Winter Azure Gray Outfit. This designer focuses on the Maitreya and Star mesh bodies, so everything included makes sense with that - the sweater in Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, and Star sizes, the pants, gloves, and boots each in Maitreya, Lara X, and Star sizes, and an unrigged beret and unrigged scarf that we can adjust as needed. Isn't that a great list? If you like the outfit better without the gloves for example, or without the beret, or maybe the scarf would hide your favorite necklace you wanted to wear, it is entirely up to you how many of these pieces to enjoy at once. 


I randomly chose two of the 3 wonderful treats we can find at The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. to share, and I think I let my sarcastic side do the talking here ;) Their hilarious JINGLE BELLS Tee is the $1L prize you can see on the left above, with a cat showing off their little * and saying "Jingle Bells Go To Hell" above and below their moony image. It reminded me of Gayle from Bob's Burgers, if you know you know, and while that character can be a bit much (like painting animals with visible anuses to hang in a restaurant), she is voiced by the fabulous Megan Mullally ♥. The $50L exclusive YIPPEE-KI-YAY Tee is a must-have for those like me who A) recognize that as being from Die Hard, and B) firmly believe that it is essential viewing this time of year because it IS a Christmas movie :) I remember seeing it in the theater as a teenager with a friend, so I have fond memories here. Now all of The Bold Llama's tees are provided in unpacker HUDs with standard mesh sizes plus eBody Classic, eBody Reborn, Waifu, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies to choose from. Just deliver the one you need and hang onto the HUD for future reference.


Next we head to Psyche's Pstyles, whose $1L candy can contains the lovely Starry Mints Dress. This strapless mini with full skirt is trimmed in lush white fur, and decorated with a pattern of red and blue starlight mints. My grandma always had these on hand, and I'm sure many of you had similar experiences with a family member or two, so I've got fond memories associated here. There are sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes included in this affordable treat.


The Sissy Bar has a terrific $1L prize waiting for us, simply named (TSB) Candy Cane Wishes 4 Hunt. It is a cozy looking winter white knit dress with long sleeves and cowl neck, adorned with some holly and a candy cane wrapped in a bold red bow on the right side of the skirt :) It's a great nod to the hunt name, and is subtly festive which I do appreciate. Find this candy cane and you'll receive 5 fitmesh standard sizes as well as sizing for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh bodies.


My final look this evening is one of two prizes from ART & FASHION, this one being their stunning RED FASHION LONG DRESS for just $1L. We all deserve a new elegant gown for the holiday season (New Year's parties are coming too!) and this one has a fascinating design that I believe is an eye with flower petals as the lower eyelashes. We receive fitmesh standard sizes along with Freya, Isis, Venus [each in Natural, Perky, and Pushup versions), Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizing. The style hugs curves and accentuates our cleavage too, so there is definitely a lot to appreciate about this terrific prize. 

Whew, what a day! I got my hair cut finally, and I really like my new stylist. This is my third time seeing her, and she did a great job each time, while being very understanding about my anxiety and health issues that make it hard for me to get there often. She's got a sassy but friendly personality, and had me laughing nearly the whole time so my anxiety didn't have a chance to spiral. It started flurrying on the way home, which turned into bigger flakes that stuck eventually. Then I had dinner at my parents', confirmed that we are not doing anything on Christmas Eve for the first time in, well, my entire lifetime and beyond :( I know it's for the best, and nobody would probably show up anyway, but I am still sad that my grandma's beloved traditions are officially gone. We are doing pizza on Christmas Day, because that is also a tradition related to the big Eve feast (7 fishes) and a big New Year's Day ham dinner that we used to do. It was easier to do something smaller in between those, and we all love pizza. I'm eager to get some rest tomorrow, since it's my only day with no plans and appointments for a while. I hope you all have a beautiful weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
