Crystal BLUE Persuasion

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I had fun visiting the August-September round of the BLUE SL Event, where you can find great offers including $50L exclusives, and many VIP group gifts as well. The group is free to join, so all of those generous gifts I'm sharing this evening are yours entirely free :) For a few I had to pay $1L to the vendor but it was automatically refunded while the gift was delivered, so no big deal. The current round is open until the 8th of September, and it just opened so you have plenty of time to stop by and enjoy. I made it a habit to use a song title for my blog post titles when covering this event long ago, and I had a hard time deciding which song to continue my tradition with. However that is the explanation for the name :)


My first look of the evening is our Violet Skies - Workit Leggings & Shirt gift. Please note that several of the items are no-copy so you do need to manually unpack this because we cannot copy things into our inventory if they're attached to us. The shirt and leggings each come in Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Lara X, Petite X, Maitreya, Petite, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Prima Petite, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh body sizes, with a HUD for each that offers 5 patterns and 5 solid colors to match. This makes for one versatile outfit! I had to right click the leggings HUD and add to HUD (I just chose one that was empty on my screen, lol) then edit and rotate until I could see the HUD's buttons, because it defaulted to being worn on my right hand instead of my screen. Sometimes SL just does that, lol, but it really only took a moment to remedy and will default to the new location each time you add it in the future. SL's quirks do not diminish my enjoyment of this vibrant, fun outfit at all :)


Next I'm feeling marvelous in the Nut & Squirrel Flaminia gift, from the brand formerly known as Telsiope's Couture. This gorgeous gown is provided in sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Lara X, Legacy, Peach, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The enclosed HUD offers 10 solid satin textures and 12 colors with rows of sequins like the red on the left above. If I were going to a formal event and wanted to look sexy but still all essentials covered, this would easily be my first choice.


Gidget's Style is offering a great gift called GS Georgie FITMESH Mini LAVENDER, seen above, and I'm very grateful for it. This silky slip dress is provided in Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Bombshell, Maitreya, Lara X, Peach, Prima Busty, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh body sizes. The hem has pretty daisies in black all around, and those side slits add an extra dash of sensuality.


The @rOrO Teal & Pink WDNC Club Shirt is a double helping of sass for free :) Each color will fit Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh bodies. The details on this short sleeved hoodie are plentiful, from the front pockets holding glasses and a yellow highlighter, to the "Proud Member of WDNC" on the front that is explained on the back as "We Do Not Care Club, Second Life Chapter" on the back. Funny thing, I tend to say that I care too much to the point of overload so I wind up having to shut down for a bit. That makes it seem like I don't care at all (the world is still a dumpster fire in some ways) but I promise I do care ♥. Can't resist clever humor though, and yes I will add pants before wearing these in public. I definitely care about not displaying the nether regions to the world at large!


One final look of the night, we have the cozy looking treat from Just Imagine called SPRING APRIL gift by JI. Our chevron knit top is provided in standard sizes along with Belleza, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes, while the skirt has a similar set of sizes - standard, eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. I used my Lara X HUD's alpha tab to hide just a couple bits and pieces here and there, since for once I didn't feel like making the switch from one body to the other. That's mainly because I could see that the clothing is not skintight and it would work pretty well :) I think this is going to be a great outfit for when the weather gets a bit more mild, since autumn is bound to arrive eventually.

Your magpie is being a nervous Nellie tonight, fretting about the dental work tomorrow, but I am distracting myself as best as I can and trying to focus on getting this accomplished for future mouth health. The fistula (that lil bubble or pocket thing that led to all this) went away immediately after the procedure 2 weeks ago and is not back, so I am glad I'm doing this. If the old root canal and crown were failing, the redo should make things happier and healthier so that is a plus. I've got soft foods on hand again for the next couple of days, and I am taking tomorrow off from blogging because you don't want me trying to blog while post-nitrous groggy ;) I hope you're all having a peaceful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
