This and That Tuesday

Hiya everyone! I have a variety of goodies to share with you tonight, predominantly from the Popping Penguin Hunt Under The Sea which is a $1L hunt with some really nice prizes. My love of midnight mania boards is in evidence as well :)


This adorable penguin shirt from AccessoriZe is prize #8 in the PPH hunt, which also includes a men's t-shirt fitmesh version, and I have to admit that the name of the women's prize mentioning Wings surprised me. I didn't see those wings on the back in the photo on their blog, so when I saw them it made me squee! :) Those wings are an attached treat, glad I was wearing my hair up or I might not have noticed them as clearly. I paired the shirt up with a freebie I found at Cupcake Clothing, called Summer Freebie, which is where I found the next PPH prize I'm showing you...


Here is the PPH prize from Cupcake Clothing, and it sure does fit the Under The Sea theme beautifully. In the preview photo on the blog, I thought it was a jumpsuit actually because of the pose they were in. I love the style of this dress though, the pretty belt and sexy slit on the left side of the skirt. It is breezy for summer, and the cheerful colored fish are a great touch. They remind me of Dr. Seuss :)


Let's say you have a formal event to go to, perhaps a wedding or a date at an upscale club, so you prepare to go shopping for a new outfit but look at your linden $ balance and just cringe...what's a gal to do? Here is a fantastic suggestion, go to Entice and join their free group, and claim their free gifts! We have this stunning gown called Waltz With Me in Earth, with a HUD for all 3 colors I'm showing above, and there is a second gift of the Waltz With Me earrings (inset shows them much better) with a HUD to change the stones to 3 colors to match the gown colors. The slit caused by the draping of the skirt is sexy without being overly revealing, so you could wear this for a huge variety of occasions. One free group to join, 2 coordinating free gifts, and you're ready to hit the town!


Midnight Mania boards are always a cause of many smiles for me, although lately I've been getting mostly notices of not enough clicks. Fortunately that was not the case here, as the boards at Precious Designs and Designs by Rowena usually do lock :) This beauty is from Precious Designs and is called PD ~ Little Things Dress, and comes with a HUD that provides 6 different color themes, 3 of which are shown above. I am quite a fan of theirs, in no small part due to their generous use of HUDs to provide us with such variety for each article of clothing. 

Nail note of the night: any time La Boheme takes part in a hunt, I am always eager to pick up their prize, and the PPH Under The Sea dollarbie prize is no exception. So the shades you are seeing on my tips and toes are their [LB Seaside Gold] and [LB Seaside Silver] which each feature a delicate seahorse and little sparkles in the gold or silver, on 10 different color wavy backgrounds each. Truly stunning!!

Well I am running behind but I am never too far behind to send much appreciation to my readers, along with wishes for a beautiful day/evening and many magpie hugs to each of you!!

Lucky Boards Treasures

Hiya everyone! I would like to introduce you, or for some of you reintroduce you, to a wonderful store I found in the soon-to-close Kiyomizu Mall called :SMC:. They were one of the first to clear out their store when the closure announcement was made, but I checked their main store and found they'd simply moved all those lucky boards to that location. I was so glad I knew where their main store was located! Some of these boards have been around a while, others are newer, yet all the prizes are terrific additions to my inventory :) I have just a small sampling to show you, hope you enjoy!

This fun outfit combines 3 different lucky board prizes, which is one of the noteworthy aspects of these boards, the ability to mix and match them. The top is called Cropped Blouse FTW, and the shorts are Denim Shorts-D which I believe is for Dark. How cute are the hearts on the back pockets? :) Even the shoes are a lucky board prize, Ladies Loafer-TT Brown. I'm guessing the TT is for two tone, as there are solid brown ones as well. These shoes come in Slink flat feet and default avatar feet varieties, and include the frilled cuffs as well as an applier for Slink feet for the optional socks.

Here you can see that I've worn the top from the first photo again, but dressed it up with two other lucky board prizes. The skirt is called Maxi Skirt PC, and there are other colors on the lucky boards as well. Our shoes are a very cute pair for Slink flat feet or default avatar feet (both sizes included) called Ribbon Sandals-PNK. The gentle plaids make me smile and put me in mind of a nice summer or autumn evening.

I left those pretty sandals on to wear with another lucky board prize, the adorable Romper-PNK with tiny polka dot pattern and cute bows at the waist and back of the neck. They are attached and not separate, so we don't have to worry about trying to adjust them just right. There is also a blue version on the boards if you prefer a different color :)

Speaking of blue, how about this sweet and simple dress? It is called Short Sleeve Dress-BLU and has those cute white collar and cuffs attached, reminds me of Little Orphan Annie a bit. There is a red plaid version on the boards along with a black version. The comfy looking sandals are another prize, Leather Sandals WE-BEG which might stand for beige. Like the other shoes found here, there is a version included for default avatar feet as well as the Slink flat foot version. There are other colors on the lucky boards as well, so be sure to check them out!

Nail note of the night: I wanted something neutral yet pretty, and went with a marketplace freebie I've blogged a couple of times recently, the Valentines gift from Who What. They have a white chocolate and dark chocolate choices on the HUD, and I stuck with the white chocolate tonight. You can tell these are becoming one of my go-to favorites lately.

Well I hope everyone has had a decent Monday, magical magpie hugs to each of you!

Shake it Off at Sn@tch

Hiya everyone! I have been fishing at Sn@tch to get the components of a set of outfits called Shake it Off, for which I use my 7 Seas fishing rod without bait so after the initial purchase of the rod itself (which I've had for several years and really enjoy fishing) it is free to fish. There are 22 pieces you will be fishing for, including 6 mesh shirts (each one is bagged so all sizes and an alpha are included) and 5 pairs of pants in a system layer, boots, earrings, a choker, and makeup too. Plenty of goodies to mix and match! There are a few days left for this outfit, and I haven't gotten it all yet (really wishing I had the fishnet shirt for underneath to show you more variety) but here are some glances at what I've fished up so far...

This shirt is #4 Human Being Tank, unpacked to find the standard mesh sizes and alpha layer in the bag. The pants are #12 Shake it Off Plaid Pants in purple, a system pants layer with the studded belt as part of the texture. The combat boots are for default avatar feet and are #14 and #15 because we catch the left and right separately :) The necessary shoe shape is #23 and the alpha layer for the boots is #24.

Here we see tank top #1 Keep Calm, and the wording on there is perfect! I switched to the red pants which are #13 and again are a system pants layer, and our same funky combat boots with the steel toes. Because I wore the red pants, I figured the lipstick would be appropriate here to match so I am also showing #20 Cream Lipstick in scarlet.

How about a flower to brighten your day? This is #5 Daisy Tank Top, matched up with the grey plaid pants which are #11 to catch. I like the effect of the outfit being almost monochrome until you see the bright pop of the daisy center. 

This shirt made me chuckle, as I know plenty of people who would wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment! I tend to mix my black or neutrals with jewel tones but there is a fair amount of black in my wardrobe, RL and SL actually. If you catch #3, you will be able to sport this shirt as well :) The cool shade of aqua pants are #9 and a system pants layer as the others are.

Nail note of the night: I have a great match for these outfits from TLB (The Little Bat), from their Midnight Mania boards, a Slink HUD called Resurrect. Various colors with black tips and black crosses, they work really well with the vibe of the photos.

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend, magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Saturday Variety

Hiya everyone! I have some treats to share from lucky boards/chairs and midnight manias, a nice mixture of freebies in some fun places. I hope you all enjoy tonight's magpie treasures as much as I do.

First up, we have a lucky board prize from milky-way, a store I have been a fan of for a very long time. You will need to join the free group to be able to claim a lucky board prize, but it's well worth it. The cute striped shirt is included in system layers, and the mesh skirt with the delicate ruffles comes in Small, Medium and Large sizes. I used to be afraid of mixing patterns, but these just look so right together, and the color coordination helps tremendously.

For something casual yet pretty, look no further than this comfy floral t-shirt from M&A. It is a lucky board prize, comes in standard mesh sizes, and in case you can't read it the shirt says, "Your smile made me happy". I paired it with a lucky chair prize from Wicked, their Laura Jeans in Night. Standard mesh sizes and a HUD is included to change the metal colors (rivets on the back pockets mostly) to your choice of 6 colors.

The jeans from Wicked also helped me display another shirt (no Donald Ducking here, LOL) which is a giggle-worthy Nerdy Girl creation. It's named Hugging Unicorns Women's Tee, and was a Midnight Mania prize (remember, they change daily so it may come around again soon, check often!) that I couldn't resist clicking. I picture a child and parent seeing this happy unicorn couple in a forest, and the parent having to explain to the curious child that the unicorns are just hugging, don't worry about it dear :) 

My last treasure for the night is this breezy little dress from *pulcino* which I found on a lucky board at the Okinawa Summer Festival. There are a few other lucky boards scattered around, so be sure to take the time to explore and enjoy. The dress is called ETSU resort dress and comes with a HUD containing 5 color choices. It comes in the usual mesh sizes.

Nail note of the night: for all of tonight's photos, I am wearing another lucky board prize from milky-way, Natural Nails for Slink Hand. There are a handful of lovely pastel colors to choose from on the HUD. As with their other main store lucky boards, you'll need the free group tag to click if your letter comes up.

I had a really enjoyable day and I hope all of you did too, whether out and about or just relaxing. Magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Kawaii Sweets Hunt

Hiya everyone! Wow it's been a busy day, but I am tickled pink to be able to share some prizes from the Kawaii Sweets Hunt with all of you. There are about 26 stops (not numbered on their site) so not a huge hunt, but the prizes are free and adorable! Cute is definitely my style a good deal of the time, so I enjoyed this hunt tremendously as the stores were a joy to visit and explore.

First we have a precious outfit from Shiro Tsuki, who are #4 in the hunt. This includes the mesh sweater dress in standard sizes, system layer panties and tights (tights are also included in a tattoo layer), shoes for default avatar feet, and the lolli I am holding in my hand. As a lover of details, I couldn't resist sharing the back seams of the stockings and that little decoration atop each seam. 

Lots to see here, our dress is the prize from #11, Kawaii Tofu. Fun name and lovely dress, love the kitteh face! My adorable earrings are from #14 Sherbert, and are called Oinky Earrings because if you look closely you'll see there is a piggy face in the icing on our donuts. The sunglasses are from Nerdology, who are #3 in the hunt, and come in 4 yummy flavors. I am wearing Grape in the main photo, then in the inset you can see CottonCandy, Blueberry, and Lime.

I am posing the way I am because I was having a bit of a wardrobe malfunction, things visible that shouldn't normally be for public viewing ;) But everyone's boobs vary and the dress is too pretty to not share, so please enjoy a glimpse at prize #22 from Les Sucreries. I accessorized it with one of the 3 necklaces found in Indulge Temptation's prize #24, the Sweet Connexion necklaces, and even put the other two varieties in an insert for you :) Now the crown, every one of us deserves to feel like a princess (or queen, king, or prince) from time to time, so why not do it in tasty style? Prize #12 is the Princess CupCake Tiara from Gachapon! and I didn't realize until after taking all the photos that it actually has a color change menu in it. I thought it was a resize menu, sorry about that. Some color choices have a gold crown instead of silver shown, and a couple changed the cupcake wrapper color too, so lots of variety to be found.

Looks like I had myself a midnight snack and then kicked back on a...waffle? Yep, I sure did, gotta love SL! My outfit is a fully loaded prize from #21 Nocturnal Needs, called I Love Toast. It includes the mesh top and shorts (standard sizes each), system layer thigh highs, boots for default avatar feet, Toastie Toasted in my mouth, and Mr. Toaster & Toastie with built in holding pose. Whew, that is a lot of goodies! On the right I am relaxing on the prize from ~Pillows~ who are #6 in the hunt, and their playful Waffle Cushion features several poses for male and female and even couples. I love the pillowy pat of butter, and strawberry pillow too. I'm concerned that sleeping on something so yummy looking might cause extra drooling though...

Nail note of the night: for simplicity's sake I went with the white chocolate from the Marketplace freebie Valentines Day gift I blogged the other night, from Who What. Neutral, delicious, I figured it would work well with everything and actually matches the 'sweets' part of the hunt theme :)

I had such a long day that I am surprised I am still upright or coherent, hehe, but it explains why I'm running a bit late. I know tomorrow will be a better day, and I hope you all have a fantastic weekend planned. Magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Thursday Group Gifts Galore

Hiya everyone! I had so much fun picking up various free group gifts that I simply cannot resist sharing, so you can all enjoy the treats as well. All the groups are free to join too, so these treasures won't cost you a thing!

First I visited the Swank event, which focuses on event exclusive items under $300L. If you join their free group and have a look around, you will find several gifts to enjoy, including my dress, bracelet, and nails. The dress is from {AnaMarkova} and is called Monroe Dress Powder Blue, and I was blown away by the beautiful retro style from the ruching at the bust to that cute collar in back. So classy! The bracelet is a gift from Zuri called Ariel in cobalt/diamond and it is certainly a stunner. There is a slight sparkle to it, not traditional bling at all but an occasional glittery effect that is quite pretty.

This one actually isn't a group gift but it's the only gift in tonight's blog that isn't. It is a free gift offered to everyone at the Thrift Shop event, where you can find delightful bargains as well as this gorgeous gown from Tiffany Designs. My slurl in the credits should give you an arrow or beacon to find it exactly in the rather large event building :)

I headed to ALB Fashions to find their group gifts, and let me tell you that was a challenge because the area is home to a few large stores. When you land, my best advice is to head South, the building to the South and then within the store itself you'll need to be pretty far south as well. There are a few different group gifts around the store, just be careful as there is a set of skirts for $50L right in the middle of the group gifts wall. I am wearing two gifts above, the outfit is called ALB KENYA and the top and capri pants are separate mesh pieces in standard sizes. The jeweled ankle cuffs are ALB CHAKRA and include Slink high and TMP versions. The colors are incredible, and I am very excited about finding them for free!

The final gift of the night I'm showing you is from Belle Epoque, and I am enthralled by the texture! It looks like it would smell like rich musky leather, and would feel buttery soft. Don't get me wrong, I am glad it's just pixels and not really into hurting animals for the sake of fashion, but this texture deserves to be recognized for its beauty. You will receive Isolde in the 3 colors shown, beige and brown and black, standard mesh sizes for each. Even that lovely necklace is included, and looks charming with the outfit. I love how the wraparound straps cross in the back, and I think this might be suitable for roleplay as well as a fun evening on the town :)

Nail note of the night: I found this HUD for free at the Swank event, at the Luna Body Art display, and I don't think it required a group but I was already wearing the free Swank group tag. As you probably noticed in the foot closeup, it's actually Ice Cream, and there are 5 different flavors in the Slink HUD. Did I really use ice cream as a neutral here? I guess so, LOL, but I think it went fine with the various outfits. Even if you don't have a sweet tooth, perhaps you have a sweet nail?

It is time for the credits so you can see where to find all these generous goodies, so I hope you're all having a terrific day/night, magpie hugs to each of you!!

African Safari Hunt Finale

Hiya everyone! I have one last post to share of prizes from the African Summer Hunt, but I still suggest as always that you give the blog link a click and see the prizes that I didn't get around to showing you, since you never know what will appeal to you. It's also helpful to look at their blog since when I refreshed their page last night, at least 3 stores had dropped out that I was about to visit and hunt in, since the day before. Well, we have some treasures to explore!

I decided this aerial view was the best way to show you both the rug and the bathing suit, which are both hunt prizes. The bright bandeau bikini is our gift from #40 Grumble, which comes in standard mesh sizes and the top and bottom are actually joined instead of being separate pieces. The giraffe rug, from HJM Designs, is prize #28 and has 11 single animations plus 17 couples animations built in. It looks so plush and comfortable!

This beautiful outfit is from #29 Cheeky Parrot Boutique, and comes with the ruffled halter and maxi skirt each in standard mesh sizes, plus the head scarf in 3 sizes. I still found that my hair was a bit too full for the top of the scarf, and since it's mesh you can't edit it to adjust it, but I'm sure if I tried enough other hairstyles I'd eventually have found something in my inventory to suit it :) Meanwhile I think it looks just as lovely without the scarf.

I might have been having some rezzing issues at this point, as you can see I couldn't get the pant legs to actually be inside the boots here...the outfit shown is prize #47 from MadCatCreations, and includes the system layer top and pants shown, the matching boots, and a slew of appliers! Those include Lena, Brazilia Doll, Belleza, devMuscle, EVE, Maitreya, Slink, TMP, {BANNED], and Omega. The chair I am sitting on is also a hunt gift, courtesy of Whimsical Happenings, who are #31 in the hunt. The Kano Chair has a single multi-pose sitter, so one avatar at a time and just click the chair to change poses. The textures are terrific, and I flat out giggled when I saw the zebra eye peeking at me from that one pillow :)

Need some shoes that are a step beyond basic styles? Each of these two prizes is a stunning twist on a simple style. On the left, we have the prize from Country Couture who are #49 in the hunt, and these boots include versions for Slink high feet and default avatar feet. The leopard print and the coordinated roses on each boot are a fun contrast to the edgy black leather. On the right, you can see the prize from #07 Wicked (a favorite store of mine) which is called Lilith Chained Heels in Zebra. They are for Slink high feet and come with a HUD to change the colors of the metal and the heel tips, 6 options each. I really think the neutral colors of both prizes will make them quite versatile and very useful additions to our wardrobes.

Nail note of the night: I really needed something simple and neutral, so I went with a Marketplace freebie find, which is labeled a Valentines Day gift but is still available and free, from * ::. Who what. :: *. There are 2 shades on the HUD, white chocolate and milk chocolate, and both look delicious!

It has been a pretty average day here, so I am ready to enjoy my time in SL later. I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
