All Twisted Up

Way back when I was a ‘duck – walkin’ n00b, I went on my first Hunt. And it darn near broke me. You guessed it. My very first Hunt was the Twisted Hunt.

twisted_001

But after being ‘baptized by fire’ as it were, I learned to love hunting. And my favorite, hands down, Hunt is still the Twisted Hunt. And I am loving the 2015 Fall Twisted Hunt #14 : Qi. The theme this round is ‘Black and White’ with a twist, of course.  And those little spinning cubes are just as hard this year as they were last time. From the Twisted Home Page ->

Prepare to HUNT.

The boxes are hidden, and they are small. We’ve renamed random prims in the store the exact same thing as the hunt item, so the prize finder HUDs don’t work right. We’ve buried hundreds of empty prizes boxes in the walls and floor, so de-rendering the store will make it worse, not better… and wireframe is a mess. We move the hunt boxes around, so hints change all the time and the hint pages people try to publish are useless in a matter of days (sometimes hours).

Now, if that doesn’t deture you then you are going to have a great time, pulling your hair out, screaming at the screen and wondering WHY you’re doing it. But, all the while you’ll be having a blast and collecting some truly spectacular prizes.

Like this cool ‘Chi Shrug’ mesh dress from [MV]. It comes with a alpha and in sizes XXS to L.  I love all the knit textures showing up now that it’s Fall and this one is quickly becoming my favorite. Plus it goes perfectly with the ‘Jeepers’ black laced boots from B!asta. The boots are one of two prizes ( packaged in the same cube) from B!asta for double the fun. The boots come with a shoe base and an alpha so they fit the system feet just fine.

I’m completing my outfit with the ‘Jade’ necklace from Atomic Fairy. This comes with a HUD to change both the large disk and the smaller bead on top with nine colors to choose from. With so many choices I think this will make it’s way into my regular wardrobe rather quickly.

My pose, with it’s spinning cubes, comes from Dimma in a five pose pack. Each pose comes with it’s own spinning cube and an optional sparkle.  All of the poses are really well done and I’m tickled to have found a ‘new to me’ pose store!

 

The Twisted Hunt runs until October 19th so you’ve got some time to explore the 106 stores, plus all the side hunts.  Have fun and get a little twisted!

Nothing sexier than a love of books.

Happy, happy Thursday everyone! I was afraid I might not make it in time this week, as I am having a few issues with my internet provider, but as you can see, I toughed it out and have some great things to show you. I like to call this my hot Librarian look 😉 .

library1

It all started when I was browsing through the notices in our very own FabFree group in world. I opened the notice from Braham Design, and they had this super cute pants suit group gift. The Ria outfit is free for Braham Design group members, and that group is free to join. The gift consists of mesh pants, a mesh shirt, and a mesh jacket. All pieces come in the standard sizes, and are meant to be worn together, with alpha’s provided to go without the jacket if you’d like. However, they will work separately as well, and since these pieces are all classics, they are for sure going to be staples in my wardrobe. library4

Naturally, I needed shoes. Now, I will admit, the shoes I went with, are highly unpractical for a real Librarian…luckily for me, this is SL, and all shoes are super-comfy *grins*. OK, so, I decided to stop at Shey’s, as I had heard a lot about them, but had not been. Well, I’ve been missing out. In the building labelled Shey Days, there are so many awesome deals, as well as group gifts…I couldn’t help but load up. I picked out the super-glam Trio Q Stilettos. They are for SLink high feet, and as seen in the picture, have a HUD with so many texture options. I had a hard time choosing colours for myself. Red and gold are a classic combination, and go so nicely with black…I think I have a winner. These beauties will set you back a piddly L$30.

I did mention group gifts from Shey, and how fortunate that one of these group gifts totally worked with my look. The simplistic beauty of the Kos Jewelry set, which includes a necklace, earrings, and a bracelet, are a perfect complement for my outfit. As I said, they are a free group gift, the group is free to join, and are actually included in a big grouping of jewelry. So even if this style is not working for you, there are several other pieces included in the group that you are bound to love. Oh, and don’t forget to grab all the other group gifts as well…let me just say…boots. library2

The last piece I wanted to share with you, is from Maxi Gossamer, and as so many of her jewelry pieces are, it is a statement piece! The gorgeous ring on my right hand is called Ketama, and is the current free group gift. The group is still free to join. You get 2 rings in this gift. a small version for your left hand, and this larger, eye-catching version for your right. Both rings are texture change through clicking on the ring itself, with metal options of gold or silver for each of the stone choices. I think it was the perfect final touch to this sexy Librarian.

OK Fabbies. I think I have done my job for the day. I have to admit, this is one of my favourite outfits I’ve put together, and I am going to get a lot of wear out of it. What can I say, I love looking good, for a good book 😉 . I hope you all have a great week, and I will see you all back here next Thursday. Until then, TTFN!
