GIRLFRIEND Collaboration with Gwen Gudkov

Gwen and I decided to have some fun and do a collaboration post with great stuff available in the Around the Grid in 80 Days Hunt. Which runs July 15th-Sept 30th.

Visit Gwen's  post here https://gwennieblog.wordpress.com/2016/07/26/girlfriends/

 

Around The Grid 4 Hunt is stilll going strong so Gwen and I decided we would show you some more of the fantastic prizes you can find in the hunt. For only $1L for the hunters and those who just want to purchase the gift, you can find it beside the sign for $25L. This hunt lasts for 80 days, but there is so much to be enjoyed, I wouldn't wait too long to start.

Behind us are some cute yard decorations. We have the Windmill Planter by HJM Designs and Around The World Hunt 2016 Prize Yard Art flowers by Mariposa Gardens and on the wall is Cake Fox's Pale Decor Lantern.

The outfits that we have on are also prizes in the hunt. Gwen is wearing the July Swimsuit for Physique, by Pixel Purrfect Productions. This amazing Swimsuit comes in several colors along with a color change Hud for ease in looks. Featured here with Gwennie wearing Green and Pink.

 I am wearing the sexy Verona Black Swimsuit created by Styles by Danielle, with an adorable hat by ~Glasgow Grin~ called Rapscallion Topper.

Gwennie also has on from the hunt, the whimsical Taco Tuesday Jewelry Set by Nomiki's Creations.

This set includes bracelet, necklace, ring and earrings.All of these pieces are simply amazing and believe me, any woman who loves tacos or has that special someone in their life that loves tacos will want this set. The detail is irresistible on each and every one of them.

 I have on the {Acios} Snake Bracelets. adding a touch of danger to my look.

Showdown with The Wolfpack of Hidden Sanctuary

It has come down to the dwarves and the wolfpack as they face off in the field at the Hidden Sanctuary. Casting a spell, the wolf witch glares at the tiny armored men and warns them back. To leave them to go about their business! She was dressed well in the Bound Gown in black, which came with a hud by DarkCandy Creations , for the Something Wicked Begins event and had no intentions of turning back and going back home without a chance to shop those fantastic booths in the market square. These dwarves were more than annoying, they were stubborn as well!
