Freesia Shop and Hop

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are heading to one of the 4 adult regions of SL22B Shop & Hop, this one being named Freesia. These events are one of my favorite ways to find new-to-me stores and designers, catch up with older favorites, and save money with all the great discounts and offers :) We have 480 total brands spread across the 24 regions of Shop & Hop, so plenty of possibilities for everyone to find just the right sales items or gifts. Two things I need to note - we have until the 20th to enjoy this event, and a very helpful guide is the FabFree spreadsheet which lets you sort by type, region, store name, and view photos of all the gifts.


My first look is the .Aitne. Yaki dress - Camo gift, which is slightly more revealing than you may see at first glance here. The neckline is low and a little bit loose fitting, so my arm is hiding a nip slip ;) For some reason the right breast was escaping more than the left, your mileage may vary. This flirty mini comes in sizes for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, Juicy, and Waifu mesh bodies. I can pretty much guarantee that the camouflage is not working and we will not blend into the background anywhere in this!


I switched to my Lara X body here, and have clothed it in the lovely small Love Beach Wrap :) This gift includes Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing, with a HUD to adjust between Blinn-Phong (traditional) texture with no shine, or PBR with low shine or soft shine. This is noteworthy because no matter what type of viewer you're currently using, there is a setting to view it in a way that suits you :) I really want to layer a BOM bikini under this and head to the beach!


I almost missed the Starlight Apparel gift on my first visit to this region, because I forgot that it would be in the same display as its sister store, Mandilena Gestures. There is a gift from each on the desk in there, this one being the beautiful SL22B Gift - Melinda Roses Dress. The cutouts and playful straps definitely caught my eye, and I do love all shades of pink :) This gift contains sizes for Belleza Classic/Dainty, Belleza Curvy/Dainty, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies.


Our [ZEX] Madame Dress & Fluffy stole * Baby Pink gift is a wonderful way to combine elegance and sex appeal. The long strapless dress and furry stole are each designed for Belleza Classic, Belleza Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Lara X, and Reborn mesh bodies, wearable together or separately. I'm going to suggest adding a panty liner/strapless crotch cover to ensure that you don't show off more than intended with that daring side slit that goes up to the hip ;) Fortunately I've got plenty roaming around in my inventory, and they can be found as gifts on the marketplace as well in various shops. I am endlessly fascinated by the range of the color pink, as it can be sweet and innocent or dramatic and daring, or anything in between :)


For my final look this evening, I'm excited to show off my new manicure from Eventyra. Their [Gift Pack] Nail Appliers - Foiled Again has 3 designs on its applier HUDs, which are for Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn hands. I am such a fan of the way this reminds me of several RL nail art images or videos I've seen, foil almost thinner than tissue paper that can be shredded or torn gently to give this beautiful appearance that reminds me of gemstones or metallic ore in nature. The design not shown here has silver foil by the way, so you can even match your favorite jewelry's metals :) 

The heat wave continues here, so I am a stressed and slightly melty magpie. I'm fantasizing about lounging in a pool, an iced beverage in my hand as I drift peacefully in a floaty ring with a holder for said drink. Sadly I have no access to a pool in RL, lol, so SL will have to do. Tomorrow is BBQ foods at my parents', then I have no idea what the weekend will hold because I never know how well the AC here will cool things off. 8 more days until its replacement, not that I'm counting eagerly or anything ;P  I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
