Hiya everyone! I was excited to get into the very crowded Mesh Body Addicts Fair, but it was definitely worth the effort. I don't even own any mesh bodies, but I do have the Slink hands and feet so there were gifts that even I could appreciate, like beautiful nails. The gifts that included system layer clothing or makeup along with the appliers enable me to show you all things that anyone can make use of, and I appreciate that greatly. So let's have a look at just a few of the great gifts!
First we have a sexy outfit from Glitzz, it is named Alicia Dress in Pink but I must admit it's going into the lingerie folder of my inventory rather than dresses. I am such a sucker for details, and this grabbed my attention with the tiny bows and pearly buttons, and lacing in the front. These are just the system layers, but it comes with an amazing number of appliers for Banned, Belleza, Brazilia, Brazilia Doll, Maitreya, Omega, The Mesh Project, Lena, Perfect Body, Slink, WowMeh, and (Ass/Lolas). Pretty impressive!!
Here you can see two different gifts, one being the adorable crochet dress from Invidah. When you unpack it, you will find in the folder the standard mesh sizes along with one for Slink and one for Maitreya, but unfortunately you won't find an alpha layer. That probably isn't a problem for mesh bodies, but you can see where it looks like slits in the dress where my thighs are peeking through. I am showing it as is so you can be aware, but to wear out "in the wild" so to speak, lol, I'll find an alpha layer in my inventory (there are dozens in there, probably hundreds!) and a nice pair of panties. I love the texture of the dress, and the cute ribbons on the pockets. The inset shows a better look at the gift from ILLI, a beautiful ring called 7Sins MBA Casual Fair Ring. It comes with a few versions adjusted for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink and The Mesh Project, and each has a resize menu built in. That is an impressive piece of statement jewelry and I love the color.
I made an outfit out of two more gifts, simply to show you as many gifts as possible at a time. The shirt is from HEYDRA and is named Skully Shirt Pink, in system layers along with appliers for Omega, Slink, and TMP. For everyday wear I think I'll pair it with a black leather skirt or something frilly for contrast. The leggings are our gift from *ZD* and are called Giraffe Sport White, and include the system layer shown plus appliers for EVE, TMP, Slink, and a HUD that just says HUD appliers. This is a really versatile addition to any wardrobe too :)
You know I love nail polish, and these manicures are beautiful! On the left you can see the 5 different gradients from TLB, from their Summer Hues Slink Nails gift. On the right, one of the gifts from Lumae is nail appliers in 8 colors for Slink as shown, and Belleza and Maitreya.
I wore such a natural, makeup-free skin for a reason, as I have some lovely eyeshadow to share. Zibska is offering a generous gift of Asli eyeshadow in 12 different colors, in system layers as well as appliers for Lelutka and TMP. There is a color chart included as well. I am wearing on the top left 02, top right 04, bottom left 06, and bottom right 08. This is a very useful gift for sure.
There are plenty of other free gifts there as well, this is just a taste to give you an idea. I always enjoy seeing new creations at events and fairs, and I usually stumble across designers I've not heard of yet so sometimes I find new favorite stores in the process. It's been a long day so I'd better wrap up with some credits, magpie hugs to each of you!!!

Lucky Boards Galore
Hiya everyone! If you enjoy lucky boards as I do, I have a great place for you to visit with over 50 lucky boards for an anniversary event! Head to a club called Black Fox and get your clicking finger ready. When you visit there is a set landing point with a TP board, click the one with the hovertext Black Fox 1st Anniversary TP, then follow the red arrows to the West. You want to go all the way to the edge of the sim west :) Here is a look at just a few of the myriad of prizes you could win.
First we have this adorable romper from MIYABI, called HanaKoi. It is a one piece mesh outfit in standard sizes, and those koi on the leg are so pretty.
This beautiful gown is one of the prizes offered by Blue Moon, the name is Chrysanthemum and it comes in standard mesh sizes. The lovely style with those unusual straps in the back makes this worth a second glance from behind.
I love this sweet sundress from ChikaLabo, and I even remembered that they offered it in another pretty color for the Kiyomizu Hunt which I blogged in late June. I am still clearly a fan of theirs and this cheerful flowered dress.
This sweet casual shorts set is from Piyori, and the delicate checked pattern is great for the summer. Those are separate mesh pieces in standard sizes, so you can mix and match those sizes if need be.
Finally this is from Karin, such a cute collared shirtdress with a charming floral pattern. I was definitely excited when my initial showed up on this board! I must admit, there is a weird sense of satisfaction from winning a prize as opposed to just having it handed to you, rather how hunting for a gift makes me feel a bit more like I earned it ;) Silly perhaps, but regardless of how I come by them I am always grateful for the freebies I find and the terrific designers who share them with us.
Nail note of the night: I am sporting a dazzling dollarbie from the marketplace, courtesy of DiAna and named Glitter. There are 6 shimmery colors to choose from on the HUD which is designed for Slink nails.
It has been a fairly typical Monday, and I suppose the most interesting part of my day was watching deer playing in my backyard. Usually the fawns (we usually see 3 at a time, with 2 adults who seem to be their moms) play and gallop around as fast as they can, but this time one of the moms decided to join in the playfulness :) We have been putting out salt licks for them and they certainly enjoy them, along with the other food we offer. Well it's time for the credits, so have a great day/evening and many magpie hugs to each of you!!

Time to Rock It Out
Hiya everyone! I explored a small $1L hunt called the Rock It Out Hunt, choosing some prizes from the photos on their blog, and I have some great dollarbies from it to share with you.
First this edgy outfit is the prize from The Broken Glass Boutique, called Girls Love To Rock. That includes the mesh tank with the name of the outfit printed on it, the mini skirt with built in belt, and the boots for default avatar feet. It even comes with a system layer pair of panties, and the skirt is short enough that those are a great idea ;)
The female prize from AmAzInNg CrEaTiOnS is a quite versatile one, as it comes with two different HUDs, one to change between 2 main designs and the other to tint the background color. That second HUD is pretty much unlimited colors, as you can click colors from a grid or you can click to enter a hexadecimal code for the color you wish. On the left and middle of the photo are the 2 main designs, on the right I've tinted the background of the first one.
This lovely mini dress is the prize from Less Than 3, simply called music dress. I really enjoy the way the designer has interpreted the theme with the foundations of music, and who wouldn't like a dress that is not only pretty but makes a fun conversation piece? :) Perhaps it will inspire that special someone to help you make beautiful music together.
My last share of the night is our prize from Prism, called Prism Mireille by Journey. It includes the bandeau top which you can click to resize, the pants in standard mesh sizes, and alphas for each. Very cute and comfy looking.
Nail note of the night: this is the new August group gift from Nail Me! called Lavish, and comes with HUDs for Slink and Omega, 4 shades of pink/purple with gold accents. The group is still free to join, so go for it! For my hair I went with an older Truth style, and I played a bit with windlight settings to try to find something slightly dusky and smoky like you'd find at a nightclub, but that still shows the outfits well I hope :) For those of you who take photos in SL, what are your favorite windlight settings? I always appreciate advice.
I hope everyone has had an enjoyable weekend, whether for you that means relaxing or going out and doing lots of fun things. For me it is usually a mixture of the two :) Magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Sweet Saturday Freebies
Hiya everyone! I have a variety of lucky board/chair prizes to share tonight, along with a midnight mania board prize and a surprise or two. All in all, some fantastic things for free!
Wicked has loaded their lucky chairs with dozens of new prizes, and I was really happy to win this sassy little dress called Amanda in black. It comes with a HUD to change the zipper color, you have 5 choices and I went with the gold. I noticed the black option makes the zipper almost blend in with the dress, so that is something to consider too as added variety.
The real reason I headed to Wicked though was because I got the group notice about this fantastic free gift, no need to join the group though (but it is free and well worth it) to grab this amazing rainbow shirt! The designers explained that Holland is celebrating their annual Pride Week and this is their gift to all of us. If I were you, I'd hurry, since they didn't give a timeframe and you don't want to miss out! I love that they went with an abstract colorful design instead of the traditional rainbow arc, you know I love variety and creativity. I decided that instead of going all Donald Duck (shirt but no bottoms LOL) I would break out a marketplace freebie that I've blogged before because they make a great wardrobe staple, the capri pants from *AVD* and their summer pack of shorts, capris, and a mini skirt all in white, system layers.
I finally had good timing when I visited Sweet Cat and checked their lucky board, and I won this adorable romper. It's all in the details for me...the buttons and the tiny opening at the top, the ties at the waist and the legs, and let's not forget to mention that beautiful texture. No group needed, just enough luck to have your letter show up on the board :)
In another stroke of luck, I visited a store called *Ran* at the Kiyomizu Mall where they have 2 lucky boards with female prizes and 2 with goodies for the guys, and within a few minutes I had won both female prizes! This dress probably looks familiar if you saw my post yesterday, hehe, as it is the same style but a different designer so a fresh take on it. This version, the cape is solid and the colors are quite lovely. I love the floral design, it really suits this dress. For the lucky board version, only sizes Medium and Large are included but this is the Medium which looks fine even if I do usually wear a small mesh size.
The other prize for the ladies on the *Ran* boards is this charming romper that initially made me think of Minions, LOL. I love that cat silhouette on the shirt, and the big shiny buttons are so cute. This includes Small, Medium, and Large, but oddly enough this is the Large even though I would usually wear a small. These boards change every 5 minutes and no group is required, and wild cards (?) where anyone can click do come up, that's how I got this romper in fact :)
Nail note of the night: these are a beautiful Midnight Mania prize from .t13. at their satellite store, and it is the type of board that keeps your name on there until it gets enough clicks no matter how long it takes.
I am running late again, so I will simply hope you are all having a terrific weekend, and magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Around The Grid Hunt
Hiya everyone! Tonight my post features several prizes from the Around The Grid in 80 Days Hunt, in which each prize is $1L if you hunt for it or you can skip the searching and buy from the sign for $25L. I looked at their prize photos on their blog, and chose the ones that most appealed to me (as long as I could tell whose prize it was) to search for and share with you. I chose to take the photos in front of bookcases since the hunt name harks back to a classic book, and because my favorite way to 'travel' has always been through the magic of reading. Okay, onto the prizes!
First I started off with a wonderful dress from Nerdy Girl, which is perfect for a road trip! I love the playful texture with the Route 66 signs and more, and the style is a classic. Did you notice the adorable bow on the waist? That is a separate attachment, so you can decide if you want to wear it or not. Personally I love bows so I am pleased to wear it :) My nails from La Boheme called LB TigerTips are one of several designs I picked up in this hunt and will be showing in a separate photo at the end.
Another pretty dress can be found at *Zesty*, in one of my favorite colors no less, so that was an easy decision to pick up this mini kimono style dress for one little linden :) I accessorized it with another prize, this one from ~Mesh Glam~ including the Grind My Gears unisex bracelet and ring. That fun manicure is one of several designs included in the prize from GDit Jewelry.
Be sure to stop by Fi's Creations if you like this striped stunner of a mini dress! For a single linden, you can get this Summer Dress just by finding that scroll. Such a seemingly simple design, yet good for a variety of occasions. It is hard to see my beautiful La Boheme [LB RegalPeacock] nails here, but you will get a better look at the end.
This amazing dress can be found at JLZ Fashion, and is fittingly named Summer Dream. The sheer flowing cape is attached and that is all mesh, so it moves gracefully with you. This is the type of dress that makes me crave having a fancy enough event to show it off! My nails are a La Boheme peacock design in gold, and now it's time to show you a better look at the various nails from tonight...
Please be sure to click this to see it bigger, and get a better look at the beautiful manicures I snagged around the grid :) On the left, both hands are sporting various designs from the GDit Jewelry prize called Tattoo SLINK Nail Polish. The middle image, the nails on the left side (my right hand...) just those 2 fingers are wearing the La Boheme [LB TigerTips] which include several base colors to match your natural skintone and all have that same tiger print tip design. On the right side (left fingers) the 4 visible fingers are displaying some of the [LB RegalPeacock] colors on that HUD. Both La Boheme HUDs are in the same $1L prize, rather than one linden each. The panel on the right of the photo is several colors from the REJECT Slink Polish ATG3 gift, simple flowers lined up together like puzzle pieces in some lovely color combinations. All in all, I am thrilled with the variety and excited about all these nails!
I am glad that the weekend is here, hoping to find a way to get my head to stop spinning with all the thoughts swirling around in there...still trying to research things about SL Premium membership, feeling very sad about the death of Rowdy Roddy Piper...it's been years since I followed wrestling but back in the day I was a fan and he was a legend, and his line from They Live is a classic quotable: "I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum." That has been used or revised more times than I can count, and it all started with Roddy and an 80's movie. At any rate, the eternal optimist in me is still peeking out and putting a smile on my face somehow, so I send magpie hugs to each of you and wish you a beautiful weekend!!

Please be sure to click this to see it bigger, and get a better look at the beautiful manicures I snagged around the grid :) On the left, both hands are sporting various designs from the GDit Jewelry prize called Tattoo SLINK Nail Polish. The middle image, the nails on the left side (my right hand...) just those 2 fingers are wearing the La Boheme [LB TigerTips] which include several base colors to match your natural skintone and all have that same tiger print tip design. On the right side (left fingers) the 4 visible fingers are displaying some of the [LB RegalPeacock] colors on that HUD. Both La Boheme HUDs are in the same $1L prize, rather than one linden each. The panel on the right of the photo is several colors from the REJECT Slink Polish ATG3 gift, simple flowers lined up together like puzzle pieces in some lovely color combinations. All in all, I am thrilled with the variety and excited about all these nails!
I am glad that the weekend is here, hoping to find a way to get my head to stop spinning with all the thoughts swirling around in there...still trying to research things about SL Premium membership, feeling very sad about the death of Rowdy Roddy Piper...it's been years since I followed wrestling but back in the day I was a fan and he was a legend, and his line from They Live is a classic quotable: "I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum." That has been used or revised more times than I can count, and it all started with Roddy and an 80's movie. At any rate, the eternal optimist in me is still peeking out and putting a smile on my face somehow, so I send magpie hugs to each of you and wish you a beautiful weekend!!

More Aloha Fair Gifts
Hiya everyone! I have some more gifts from The Aloha Fair to show you, a mixture of freebies and dollarbies as that decision was left up to the designers. Yesterday I focused on free gifts, today is mostly the $1L ones. There are plenty to enjoy from a wide variety of designers there.
These jumpsuits are both found in the surfboard from B!asta, so for $1L you get two beautiful outfits in breezy colors. I love the hibiscus print on them, and the colors are terrific.
At MOoh! you will find this delightful little dress in their surfboard for a single linden. Those ruffles and that color, so fun for the season and great for everyday wear or something a bit fancier too if the mood strikes.
It wouldn't be a summery event without plenty of bathing suits, so if you'd like a sweet mesh bikini with a refreshing watermelon print on it, head on over to the Rir stand. For just $1L you get standard mesh sizes plus a fitmesh Slink size for each the top and bottom. As you can see, it's sexy but not too revealing, nice rear coverage, and that lace in the front is a fun addition. Speaking of additions, I accessorized this with some cool shades from J&A Rock Culture. They are a free gift and come with a HUD for 4 different colors, two of which you can see above and the other two are a cheery yellow and a pretty blue.
For those days when you're feeling sassy, head on over to .Sass and grab this free pair of t-shirts with their logo on the front and a message on the back that you've been sassified. This gift provides both system layers and appliers for Omega and TMP in each color.
Finally I have two playful free gifts from surfboards, a cute hand fan from Duh! and a Summer Camp shirt from {D.o.R.k.} that comes in system layers only. I tried camming in to read that banner beneath the words Summer Camp, but no luck, so that remains a mystery to me. The fan has an animation built in but my AO overrode it easily so it's fine if you prefer no animation.
Nail note of the night is the same as yesterday's, another free gift from the Aloha Fair courtesy of Kitty's Claws. I'm still loving those 10 floral patterns, and the HUD itself is quite fun.
All in all it was a crazy, stormy day here but the weekend is almost here and I've got enjoyable plans so plenty to look forward to. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, and magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Aloha Fair Freebies
Hiya everyone! Summer certainly is a season of abundant fairs and events with really tremendous fashions. This morning I visited the Aloha Fair, where you can find surfboards in most of the stands that have gifts for either $0L or $1L. So not only are there some beautiful fashions, but the generous designers are also rewarding us for visiting! Let's have a look at some of the gifts I picked up...
This terrific outfit from Sweet Temptations is definitely my style, with its casual denim vest and billowy Boho pants that have a cute tasseled belt attached. I think for everyday wear I'd add a system layer tank top or short sleeve crop top for modesty, but that's just me :) Isn't the texture of the pants gorgeous?
I found this cute set in the surfboard at SHEY, the Keska sport pants and top. Standard mesh sizes are included for each, and this isn't limited to just summer. Enjoy it year round and decide for yourself if you feel like working out or just looking fit and fine in it.
You probably aren't surprised to see that I found a bikini, and this one is gorgeous! Silk Dreams is giving us this Joy Bikini in Emerald for free, in system layers with attachments for the bows in the front, back, and side ties on each hip. This is a sexy, alluring suit that is revealing but not excessively so.
Lots of goodies here, first of all we have a gift of 5 shirts that I'm only showing you one so you can be surprised by the other colors/patterns :) On the left, that is the pink top with frills from one of two gifts from StarsFashion. The others in that pack are black, brown, grey, and leopard. On the right, that shirt is another gift in the surfboard from StarsFashion, simply called July Gift 1. Those lovely flowers in my hair and around my wrist are the gift from Graffitiwear, the Pink Double Hair Flower and Bracelet. Even my shoes are another Aloha Fair gift, this time from Pinks, called Flavia pink flowers and is for Slink high feet. The jeans are not from the Aloha Fair and will be credited separately :)
Finally, this sweet shirt is our gift from BN Designs and is called Sheila blue. All the little details really make it wonderful, from the layered look and the stripes to the buttons so nicely textured. These designers have really spoiled us!
Nail note of the night: it's another Aloha Fair gift, a HUD with 10 floral patterns from Kitty's Claws, a very appropriate and fun name for a designer of Slink manicures. As for my jeans in the last 2 photos, they are a free gift (a Midnight Mania oopsie apparently) from TLB The Little Bat, set out in front of the Midnight Manias. You know that means I'm gonna suggest you click said MM boards, hehe, and check the 4 lucky boards on the floor. It's a great place to explore for gifts, bargains, and just great fashions in general.
I am planning on going Premium in SL soon, but I have been trying to make heads or tails of the info about the 512sqm tier and what can be done with it if you opt out of the Linden offered home...the few people I've talked to who are premium already weren't sure either. I'd ideally like to either buy or rent a parcel, depending on the details. I am hoping my current landlord replies soon, as a landowner in SL already I'm confident that she'll have some answers but with my luck she's probably on vacation this week or something. If anyone knows anything, please feel free to leave a comment! Meanwhile I hope you're all having a fantastic day/evening, many magpie hugs to each of you!!
