Hiya everyone! Tonight I've got some Shop & Hop goodies to share, but rather than the actual gifts, I went with purchases I could make at the event with store credits or a gift card that is the store's S&H gift for us. So you'll want to go to each landmark, click to receive your credits/card, then peek around their stand to find the gift I've chosen to redeem them on. Of course I expect that you'll probably want to choose something else instead there, and I highly encourage that :) After all, the credits are intended to let us pick out things that speak to us, and I stuck to ones whose vendors at the event are set to allow us to use the credits, taking advantage of their discounted sales :) It's a good way to get more bang for our buck, and if you don't see anything here you can always head to their mainstores to apply those credits to whatever you prefer. Many of the gifts of store credit do expire when the event ends in early November, so this post can also serve as a good reminder to use them while you can! Also worth mentioning, the FabFree spreadsheet of gifts lets you sort by type (tabs at the bottom) so you can check specifically the stores offering credit which are in purple. Many thanks as always to the FabFree team for their dedication.
My first stop was Buganvilla, where there is a generous $300L store credit waiting for us. I chose their Noa dress - C9 for $196L with that credit, by right clicking and choosing menu, then buy, then store credit. This lovely minidress has PBR and non-PBR versions included in Legacy and Reborn mesh body sizes, and we also receive a HUD with 28 colors for the fluffy trim. I'm wearing the PBR version here, so my dress is responsive to light, and it was so fun to change the coloring of our furry cuffs and hem :)
Kastle Rock is offering a $500L gift card as their treat for all visitors, and their sales items here at S&H are so affordable that you can pick up a few items on it :) This is their :K.R: Rue Dress - Blacks - Toxic, which is marked down to $140L at the event. There are sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Petite, Pushup, Maitreya, Ecru, Petite, Reborn, and Juicy Boobs sizes for the dress, compatibly sized panties with a HUD for the panties with 16 colors. We also receive 3 sets of BOM pasties - striped, black, and white which are tintable. The neckline isn't low enough to really need them, but I did keep them on for my next look...
Another Kastle Rock outfit I treated myself to with the gift card is their :K.R: Kennedy Casual Set - Teal, on offer for just $88L :) The top is lower cut than I realized at first, LOL, so I'm wearing the black BOM pasties from the prior dress I shared. This sweet set includes the top and shorts in Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Reborn, Juicy Rolls, and Waifu body sizing, with a HUD that offers 14 colors each for the top's ties and the shorts' waistband. I love the way we combine sporty with flirty! Now my two purchases left me with over half of the card's credit, so I'll go back and pick up a couple more treats soon :) But there are other stops and other credits gifts to share so I'm moving on...
Next I claimed the $300L credit at SAGED, and chose their Membrane Dress which was $280L of that credit. I know it says dress, but with the built in panty and hip height hem, I'm thinking of it more as a bodysuit :) Either way, it's definitely a flirtatious outfit, in sizes for Legacy, Perky, V-Tech, Reborn, and Reborn V-Tech bodies. The style is so unique with the wavy seams and left side openings, and just wait until you see the versatile HUD! That lets us choose from 3 colors for the right side, all neutrals, and 36 textures for the left which is a nice mix of patterns and solids. The panty portion stays black, so that's another handy neutral that will work with anything else you select from the HUD.
My final look is from -[ vagrant ]- and their $300L credit, which all went towards this fun Valerie Top - Patterns fatpack. The top is provided in Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, and Reborn mesh body sizing, and it includes a HUD with 14 choices. Each design for the front has a different color background, and I know it's hard to see but the left says "I'm QUEEN" and the right says "Sunshine" on the top and "Brave and Free" beneath the intricate sun. There are other designs that are summery, and a few animals, so it is a nice variety :) I am wearing my favorite Delizio jeans here, free on the marketplace, but there were some great jeans and denim shorts that were tempting from vagrant as well. The only thing that stopped me was trying to keep the post limited to what I could pick up with this event's credits gift only. To be honest, I had more credits because they don't seem to expire and I do forget to redeem them all sometimes, lol, but chose not to show you more than you could afford with this round's gift.
Whew, I am one tired magpie tonight! Everything I'd planned for today and tomorrow is all flipped around, so my brain is lagging worse than opening day of an SL event. I had a great time playing Hello Kitty earlier with my friend, and chatting with her and her husband who also plays. They are going to a haunted hayride and corn maze tomorrow, which sounds exciting, and *fingers crossed* I'm supposed to be doing an outing that will take me further than I've been in a few years. My nerves are really building up, but I am eager to accomplish the challenge. Well, I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
