Hiya everyone! Tonight we continue our journey to Atlantis, which is the theme of the Twisted Hunt Spring 2018 round. The cubes are beautiful blue and gold, the decoys are plentiful, and the challenge level is sky high ;) The thing is, I truly enjoy the creativity that the designers show us with their displays and ability to hide the little spinning cubes that you just might start dreaming about. I haven't had any cube dreams yet this round but sure have from previous ones! I do recommend looking over their website if this is your first Twisted experience, and joining the group if you think you might need to ask for hints.
When you find the cube at Get Frocked, you too will be able to lace yourself into this lovely Twisted Spring Hunt Dress as your reward. It comes in sizes for eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine, with so many terrific details like the cube pattern on one of the layers. I accessorized with the Lantian Flox prize, which is called L/Fx Poseidon Trident Necklace v3 Pearl. There are two sizes included in the gift, and as you can see from the inset it does have pearl accents alongside the intricate trident. I am wearing the small size, the large is probably suitable for male avatars.
The EKC has a side hunt for us to enjoy, and one of the four prizes from it is this terrific Mers & Cocktails Dress. It comes in Hourglass and Physique sizes (could possibly fit others with some alpha tweaking) and a HUD that allows you to choose from 4 different textures, two of which can be seen above. It is a very shapely dress with eye-catching laces on the sides, and the mermaid fish scales of the pattern work well with its style.
If there is roleplay in your future, then you especially need to find the right cube at Dreaming Thicket. This is their Atlantis Outfit, and there are male and female versions included, each with and without the outer robe, and both male and female boots provided as well. Like many of our prizes, there are images of cubes present, as a fun reminder that you accomplished something remarkable by finding all these wonderful prizes.
There is something intriguing about this gown from MystRie, called Atlantis Dress, and I believe it is the very subtle swirls of deep gold that are catching my attention. There is a male prize hiding in a different cube, while this one holds fitmesh standard sizes plus Belleza, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. I think it also appeals to the Aquarius in me, the sign of the water bearer despite being an air sign.
My final look of the evening is a closer view of the nails I have been sporting tonight, the prize from Inevitable Madness. Their gorgeous Atlantic Pearl Nails include HUDs for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, Slink, and Vista, with 6 designs in vivid blue and/or shiny gold, a couple of which are decorated with pearls from the deep oceans. This is a very versatile set of nails with plenty of compatibility for a wide range of mesh hands and feet, which is much appreciated.
Are you all ready for the weekend? It will be here before we know it, and I am looking forward to being pleasantly busy. The weather shouldn't prevent dinner with my parents tomorrow after acupuncture, and it should be smooth sailing for my usual Saturday stuff. I hope you're all having a great day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight we will be exploring more Fall 2017 Twisted Hunt prizes, bringing beauty to our homes and fingertips as well as our wardrobes. The Twisted Hunt is a free gridwide hunt that takes place twice a year, considered the hardest hunt in SL, and this round's theme is Victorian Gothic with a color of Burgundy Wine. The gently spinning cubes are that color, and many of the prizes feature it as well, some even with the same exact texture as the cube. There are plenty of treats from side hunts to discover as well, and many prizes contain male and female versions or are unisex for all to appreciate. That includes some terrific home furnishings, even skyboxes, so plenty of ways to enjoy the theme.
Sinfully Seddy has this beautiful Bitter Romance Gown and Parasol hiding in their cube for the ladies, and a suit and top hat for the gentlemen. The gown comes in sizes for Hourglass, Physique, Maitreya, TMP, and a standard avatar version, while the parasol has a hold pose and a resize script built in. I love the extra touches of the purple bodice with black lace overlay. I found that the prize from Fallen Arms: Rough goes very well with this look, it is the Craftian Monocle which has a purplish tinted lens and some playful tentacles holding it in place.
Our next stop is ~KRAKT~ where you will find this Victoria Female Gift (as well as a male gift) hiding in their cube. The dress comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes, while the shrug style jacket is in 4 fitmesh sizes (XS, S, M, L). Please excuse the transparency issue my new hair is causing, the jacket is solid across the shoulders and has that lovely black bow you see in the front. On the right you can see that the dress is striking without the jacket as well.
#bye has an alluring gift waiting for us, their Fall 2017 Twisted Hunt gown. It comes in standard mesh sizes plus a fitted version, along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique sizes. The version for Maitreya is named differently but I checked and it is the same gorgeous dress. I paired it with the hunt gift from Syren's Song, their Blood Stone Collar, a ruby or garnet-like heart held in place by black leather. It will be an ideal accessory for anything you decide to wear it with.
This photo will need to be clicked to see it full size, to fully appreciate the decor from Dreamscapes Art Gallery. This is their *Victoria* Fireplace & Picture, 4 pieces in all, consisting of the fireplace with a Land Impact of 3 whose fire can be clicked to turn on or off, picture with LI of 1, and two sconces with a LI of 2 each for a total of 8 LI. The set is rezzed out at once, if you are in edit mode (just right click anything and then choose edit from the pie menu, minimize the edit window and drag out your items from inventory) then you can move them as one intact piece to position them. Since they are copyable, you can rez out multiple sets and fill your entire home if you so choose.
One last look for the evening, this is our prize from Inevitable Madness called Twisted Victorian Nails. There are appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, Slink, and Vista, each offering 4 designs: silhouettes of a wolf, owl, or raven, and the ombre of black to burgundy to nearly white. Mix and match or choose your favorite of the moment, your nails will thank you for adorning them so richly.
Hair note of the night: Truth Hair has released their September VIP group gift, and it is so much fun! The name is Athena and there is a full set of color HUDs as with all the VIP gifts, I chose a redhead selection here. The stylist HUD lets you have both sides down and curly, or one pulled back into a braid, or even the full side swept back with that pretty plait. There are 3 wisps of bangs that can be turned on individually or all turned off at once, so there is quite a lot of variety happening in this exuberant hairdo.
I am a little slow tonight as I am not feeling my best and seem very easily distracted, so I will simply wrap this up with a wish for a wonderful day/evening and magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
