I’ve been randomly wandering around hitting MM boards and getting group gifts dropping into my inventory, so here are a few I’d like to share with you.  The fabulous dress I’m wearing (above) is called Lotus Lucky Onyx and is the current Midnight Madness prize from ~:evldva:~ It’s really detailed with gorgeous texturing.  There are 20 pieces to play with on lots of layers and accessories too, including a hair decoration, earrings and the sculpted boots you can see below.

The next dress is Gideon from the PixelLounge range at PixelDolls and is their MM prize too.  It has great leather details on the bodice and a feathery skirt:

Next up is another MM prize, this time from Steambound - there are several MM boards here, all with great quality outfits in them so do look around.  This one is called Veronica Revealed and comes in lots of options on various layers, plus lots of different prim skirt attachments, including the great bustle shown in the pic below

My final pic is the latest group gift from PixelMode – the shoes “Lady T Jaguar” come with an easy to use hud to match skin tone and change nail colour

The skin in all these pictures is the current group gift from Belleza called Erika – I’m wearing the medium shade, and you get six shades in the gift pack.  You do have to pay to join the group, but it’s worth it for the quality of the gifts you get.

The hair is from Clawtooth & Truth, eyes from Poetic Colors, rings from Callie Cline and poses are from Glitterati
