After running through the Black or White Hunt 2, being offered by Fi’s Hunts, I got this crazy idea for an outside museum.
With the winter set scene of the sim, I took the white path at =EC Designs= and found this beautiful white marbled arched Reflection Waters. I had to adorn it with a few pieces of art though. So after getting lost in MishMash Fusion I found a third hidden gift. Four gorgeously taken photographs in the Black and White theme. I also had to set up Tipster’s The Moonlight Tip Jar beside the pond, in hopes for donations to the sim.
Some of these pieces are just so mesmerizing I lose time staring at them.
For those of you staring at the dress, this is the cute mini dress from Fi’s Creations. It can be found down her black path. Paired it with the Waya Black-Silver Boots on the black path at Lindy’s Modern & Retro Shoes.
I can’t leave out this darling skin I found at the STUFF salesroom. It’s called Marynia and its in apricot with cute freckles, designed by 7 Deadly s{K}ins.
Now when I rezzed this sparkly black and white sphere from SANNA – SCIENCE and ART, it started to float. Not sure how it seems to be hollow. But I did tie it to a few of the arches so it wouldn’t fly away. I wonder if she put magnets in it?
Well while I sit and ponder what makes it float I will say my good-byes.

Hunt Name : Black or White Hunt 2 Duration : 15.-31.January 2016 Hunt Type : free & gridwide Sim Rating : PG/mature/adult Website :http://www.fiscreations.com/hunts/
Even during the winter months the druid’s are wide awake and tending to their trees and the woodland creatures that live in their forests. Out with her box of potions she helps to heal their ailments…
With her box of elixirs, she takes a seat under the tree lamp and listens to her patients. From momma bear’s lil cub having a toothache to Mr. Coyote’s case of the sniffles, she listens to each case and gives them the proper elixir to help ease them.
As the wind starts to blow and kick up the snow she decides it is time for everyone to get home, safe in their warm beds. Grabbing her box she heads for her own warm haven. And maybe a change of warmer clothes too.
Out of the wet clothes from the forest, she stands in the middle of her haven. Watching the snow fall all around the hidden hideaway, the magic inside seems to buzz with warmth.
I was out walking my dog Lucy the other night, we walked through Tipster’s forest, when I happened to see something in a clearing right before the snow started to fall harder. There were two faeries standing in the light of a jar of fire flies. I think I have that same stand from HJM designs.
One faerie would wave her hand and a blue ball of energy would appear, while the other kept seeming to point where new icicles needed to be placed on the trees.
Both were so busy with their tasks, I don’t think they even noticed me and Lucy walking through the trees.
Both faeries were so beautiful, I had to snap a few photos as we watched. Even Lucy seemed to be in awe cause she didn’t bark once.
I wonder if I can duplicate this faerie’s outfit for one of the winter parties I have been invited too? Remind me to check with Fi’s Creations. I think I saw a pair of boots over at Lindy’s Modern and Retro that look identical to those. If anyone sees them let me know.
I zoomed in to get a closer view of her hair design so I can take it to the A&A salon. I think Allie can repeat that design. I think she noticed me and Lucy.
As we headed back toward the house to leave the faeries to their tasks. I kept staring at the delicate design of her necklace. I am hoping if I get with Redrose Jewellry’s creator, she might be able to make one similar.
Well guess I know what I will be doing this week. Hunting!!
After decorating for the upcoming holidays at the family land in SL, I decided I was going to make me my own little corner to celebrate. But I didn’t want to go all out like I did for the family. This was just for me and Santa.
Next to Fall Winter is my fav time of season. And I think it’s cause it gives me a reason to be snuggley and curl up with family and friends enjoying a warm fire and not dying of heat exhaustion. (I live in Florida. No snow, pouts!)
After doing up the big tree over in the family house I decided to go green and take a page from LEP. They made these nifty sock cozy’s for your potted trees. So since I had a few trees of the season I put them in the socks that I was missing partners too. Think Santa will still give me gifts for trying to be a greener person and upcycling?
I stacked a few of my gifts around this giant stocking tip jar I got from Tipsters. I wonder if he’ll get the idea I want cash? lol
The cute picture I found over in Chiana’s place. She also had these Winter Warmers in a gacha. Looks like Chiana may have had trouble with the knitting. Cause these stockings look a little off.. *whispers* but I think they are bigger than the normal stockings, so I put them out over the fireplace hoping for more trinkets. *giggles*
By the way that fireplace was a cute find over in the Sickly {SWEET} store. Even with out the decor it will be great for the winter months ahead.
The chaise I picked up from An Lema was perfect. There was no “assembly required”. Perfect to curl up with your partner or by yourself. The flannel fabrics are so soft against your skin.
These busy socks don’t match my sweater cause they are from two different stores. But Sweet Tea Couture put out these Hip to be Square socks that were so soft I had to snag them. They come into 2 sizes knee length and thigh high with the cute heart garters to help hold them up.
The sweater though I found while walking around Mutiny in Heaven. Never fails if it has snowflakes or penguins on it I have to buy it. And cause I am a kid at heart I got such a kick out of the socks jewelry over at Redrose. Reminds me of those charm necklaces we use to get in the quarter machines.
Did you see this boo-ti-ful hunt that Fi’s Hunts put together for Autumn lovers??? Tons of furniture in the autumn shades getting you ready for the season. It started on the 8th and took me a few days to catch up, I had to build everything. So fair warning to get this gorgeous lake side view… you may have some assembly required!

Lounging on the edge of my newly build =EC Designs= outdoor living area, enjoying the crisp air and the view of the lake. Remind me to leave a bonus in my landscapers Christmas card. SANNA-SCIENCE and ART did a wonderful job etching that lake out for me. Back there in the corner of my living room, I added one of those ! Rupsy Roo bean bag chairs so I can snuggle closer to the fire when the sun goes down.
And the talented clothing designer over at SweetRed’s Designs created this adorable strapped dress with double layered skirt. The shoes I snagged at Lindy Modern & Retro Shoes added just the touch of autumn red the outfit needed, too. What girl doesn’t find a sweet piece of jewelry to accessorize with? Check out the Butterfly and Heart set from Redrose Jewellry Stores.
Thanks to the day at the Magika Salon and the Oceane Body Design Spa I was able to get my hair tipped and make up done, too.

While trying to catch a mid afternoon nap on this lazy Sunday a noise woke me. I think that bull got out his pen again. Glad I changed out of the skirt before grabbing my nap. The lil ensemble was put together by the designers of Emerald Couture. And can I say I am inlove with these boots!!!
Look my make-up didn’t smudge! lol
This adorable Autumn chaise was found in HJM designs, and it fit in the corner of the outdoor living room nicely. It’s super soft so.. easy.. to drift.. off….. *shakes her head* I need to get up or out I go again. I’ll get dressed for my date.

Least I don’t have to stand around to wait out here by the drive. The garden designers of Love Everlasting Plantpets built this adorable little bench that circles around your fav tree. As hours passed I realized I was stood up. Such a waste for this cute 2 piece from ~**Cheeky Parrot Boutique**~. It comes with these strappy heels too, but I couldn’t get them laced up right so I stuck with the comfy boots from earlier. I’ll figure out the strappy shoes later.

Welp the next best thing to date night, grabbing one of those dirty erotic stories and getting comfortable. I found this great little cuddle spot from {Sickly SWEET}. Now where is my rabbit… well that’s not the rabbit I meant. lol

The last piece I added to my outdoor living was a cute table that had lights in it, offered by *Shabby*. I hope you all enjoyed your visit down here at my backyard get away for the autumn season.
Another sleepless night, I am awake watching the sun chase the moon from the sky. Looking around my bedroom I see I still have s{k}ins, hair, and clothes to try on. So why not see what looks I am going to take on for the fall?
“Welcome to my parlor.” said the spider to the fly Click for larger image
7 Deadly s{K}ins had this adorably rich skin called Dawn being offered at The ‘stuff Theme sales room. Dawn comes in 2 shades Marshmellow(Shown) and Taupe. Included with the skin for standard avi’s is the appliers for TMP and the Slink Hands and Feet appliers. But the physique full body is available at the main store.
Here I am playing in the Demo hair I grabbed from Magika off MP. This is called First Light in the color hud 03. I love Ombre shades. Okay, can I just ask, why has RL world not caught up with this demo thing? When you walk into a hair salon, your stylist should have their hair styles available in wig form for you to try out for a day. To decide if you are really going to like the style. I’m just saying.
Look how good these look together. I think it’s a match made. I will need to go in tomorrow to buy the permanent hair style.

Time to change.
Did any of ya’ll go tackle the Fall Hunt at 7DS? I hope so. Cause it ends on the 15th!! And you do not want to miss out on this gorgeous skin. In six versions, with Tango and Slink hand and feet appliers for v6. Version 6 is in Caramel.
I hate being tired but unable to sleep. Maybe I should lay down…
Click for larger image
I snagged the Slink Physique body applier from the main store while I was there too. But this fall skin I think is going to be my new default shade for the next few months. Least until the tan fades with the winter months lol.
*yawns as the sun starts to rise casting shadows over my room*
Time to start counting sheep folks. I hope the morning will take me into my dreams.

So continuing on my series of “August Group Gifts”, I bring you two more stores. First store is Fi’s Creations, with a 2-piece group gift. And second is an eloquent gown from Purple Moon.
Today, I was headed to the gym for a boxing class. Grabbing the cute tank n skirt from Fi’s Creation made my outfit for the work out. Let’s grab a smoothie before class, and I will explain this cute lil outfit.
Click me to see a larger view
Fi’s Creations is offering 2 colors of this system layer tank top. And for the Platin members she added 2 color coordinated mesh skirts. The regular group is “FREE” to join, while the Platin group is 250L, In the Platin group you receive bigger gifts and usually have exclusive colors on each color change HUD in the mesh clothing sets.
Time to grab an opponent and get that work out in before my night out. Care to step to the challenge?

To round out the outfit, I grabbed the feet wraps from fri.day at C88 and the gloves from Fire GOOD!!! off MP. These are cartoon action gloves, each punch or kick will emit one of six cartoon action particle effects.
After that work out and a shower time to dress up. The Hedy dress from Purple Moon was super elegant and perfect for tonight. The group gift is in Grey and full Mesh lay out for standard, Omega, and Slink Physique bodies.

Poulet from Purple Moon has been working hard to give us great detailed pieces and bring her lines into the Mesh trend taking over SL. The group costs 50L to join, and there is a new gift each month along with specials and sales all the time. She also has member only sim hunts through out the year, at different holidays.
Look at the collar detail on this gorgeous dress.

Time to find a dance hall while I tour the Paris sim. I hope you folks enjoy these two group gifts. They will be out until the end of the month.
As one of Fi’s Creations bloggers, I get to hear about the up coming events. And this one I have been itching to get a hold of for weeks. After a rough start the gates were opened, a few fumbled steps, we are off and running, and I do mean RUN folks.The lions escaped the Serengeti and are on the hunt. lol
Click me to see a larger image.
These gorgeous lions are part of not 1, but 2 items to find along the hunt path. On the left is the Roaring Lion Tip Jar offered by Tipster’s and the one on the right, is the animated image from Sanna-Science and Art. Both are flat images and when taken from the right angle the camera lies, cause those bad boys look real. RUN!!
Glad I wore the African Princess Sun out, the skirt offers plenty of room for me to run! The African Princess Sun outfit comes with mesh body fitted pieces too. And provided by Emerald Couture.
Let’s head over to that swimming hole, before we get eaten!
Click this image for a larger view.
Here you can see the Giraffe watering Hole provided by LEP. And lucky for me, after I snagged my swim suit, they didn’t mind me hanging out to cool off in the water with them. The adorable swim suit is offered by our own Ms. Fiona at Fi’s Creations. You get this suit at the 1st stop.
I even found a gentle giant relaxing under the shade tree. The beautiful African Elephant is animated with an on/off touch feature. Ever hear the saying the “an elephant never forgets” ? It’s true an elephant will hold a grudge for years, and even a color that resembles something from the initial irritation can send it on a stampede,
Click me for a larger view
Let’s hope this one stays calm. He/She is offered to us by Sweet Revolutions. This African Savanna grass I found on MP by SR, too. I enjoyed running through the grass in this outfit, I think I was hidden from the lions. A girl can dream right? This 2 piece ensemble is brought to us by Cheeky Parrot Boutique. Pairing the RedRose Jewelry – African bead Jewelry set with it, gave the outfit just the accessories it needed.
After all the running around and visiting with the animals, I think its time to get some dinner. The spread is amazing, aren’t you hungry? The Formal dining table was supplied and stocked by Nomiki’s Creations. She knew we were going to be starved after our 1st day on the Serengeti.

Animals, clothes, food, and decor fill your days while roaming the African Summer Hunt. I couldn’t even possibly fit all 49 stops into one little blog post. But I should be back soon with many more stores to show you. I want to show you a few last things that I collected from the stops along the way.
This beautifully designed shelf holds all my little knickknacks and even some of my reference books. The shelf is brought to us by a new designer in SL and to Fi’s Hunts. Please take a second to look at her store as you stop by to get your hunt prize. The African Shelf (knicknacks are included) is from XL-Creation.

The Picture frame hanging above the shelf, and the potted cactus, are 2 of the 3 pieces offered by Darkmatter. I included the clock below with the mural I found at the *Shabby* stop. The Mural comes with cute square poof style seats which I have stacked up somewhere around here. Oh and did you notice the carpets and the tent those I got when I stopped by EC Designs.

Okay, so my day has wore me out, but I can’t wait for tomorrow when I can run through my safari and spent time playing in the grass. The dry heat is an amazing change to the humidity I am use too. Time to sit back drink a cup of coffee and watch the sunset… or at least wait for my date to get here so we can go dance at the local bar. Thanks to Mishmash Fushion, I have this gorgeous side cut out zebra printed dress. She gave me shoes, too! But I like the chains on this pair of heels, makes me feel like I’m taming the beast with in. I got them over at the Wicked store.

By the way those last few decor pieces you see there, the sign, chair, monkey vase, even the potted plant on the right.. those were all from this cute lil store called Kaya’s. Ohh, look there are those poufs, I knew they were somewhere.lol

So, this time when I headed out into the stores looking for those hidden group gift treasures. I Found two new stores to add to my list of Fashion stores. This time I took along company, too.
My first stop was by a store called (BYRNE) Style. Now this was a store who commented on my first set of August’s gift, when it hit the Second Social page. So of course, I had to go check them out. Byrne (pronounced Burn) has been on market place for just under a year starting her clothes back in September of 2014. Her inworld store was born in December of that same year. Currently, their group is free to join. She also has a subscriber board that gets you a separate gift for free and doesn’t require a group space.
Byrne offers fashions for both females and males. In the pictures below, you will see both free gifts this month too.
The second store on the list tonight is called No Match. This store is one of the very few hair stores that provide group gifts. Currently there are several gifts out, and a few are unisex. There is a 50L joining fee, which is well worth it seeing how there was nearly 8 gifts out to snag. (Don’t wait around I am sure she won’t have them out long.) I wasn’t able to catch up with No Match to find out how long she’s been on the grid, but with a group of 1800+ members she has been around for a while.
No Match offers Male, female, and unisex hair in her store. I couldn’t find her on marketplace, so I am including her SLurl.
After some shopping me and Ras (my brother) went back to campsite by the lake and tried on our new gifts. Ras decided I needed to swimming and picked me up. DOn’t you hate when siblings are stronger than you???
Fighting was futile! lol
But as you can see we are both sporting new hair dos from No match. I am wearing the No Country and he is wearing the No Fun.. both are from the unisex gifts that were put out. Both come with color huds so you have a few shades to choose from.
The top I am wearing is from BYRNE and so are his shorts. The top is called Zuka Bandeau Top (Blue Ombre shown, Lilac Ombre included) and his shorts are called Zuka Men’s shorts (Black Denim shown, White Denim included).
I’m wearing the Slink Physique body which worked great with just using the built in alpha-ing features. Ras doesn’t wear any of the mesh parts.
Before he decided I need to go for a swim I was just chilling inside the wagon. In the close up you can see the detail of the Zuka top with the pearl flower add on. The No Country hair complements the out fit perfectly.
Show Casing:
(BYRNE) Style : Zuka Bandeau top for women (Blue Ombre & Lilac Ombre) Mesh
Zuka Men’s Shorts (Black Denim & White Denim) Mesh
I zoomed in to get a closer view of her hair design so I can take it to the A&A salon. I think Allie can repeat that design. I think she noticed me and Lucy.
