Want A Bear Hug?

Snapshot_001

Been looking for a fun mesh avatar to give your pals a giggle?  Hidden in a ladybug hunt icon for the Spring Is Near Sim Wide Hunt at Acid Lily is this adorkable complete mesh avatar called Nuigurumar Doll that you can wear with the mesh head or your own head for a more human look.  It includes the little pocket bear as well.  This avatar is not really gender specific…  I bet it would work for guys too!

This hunt runs until April 9th and each prize is 5L.  You can find a hint to this prize on their official blog - http://acidlilygallery.wordpress.com/spring-is-near-hunt/

My Irish Wish

parisstpat2f

May the Irish hills caress you.
May her lakes and rivers bless you.
May the luck of the Irish enfold you.
May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.
~Irish Blessing

Faith and Begorrah, why it’s Saint Patrick’s Day! And Paris Metro is offering this lovely Irish Wish dress and hat for free so you won’t be caught not wearin’ o’ the green! I’m sure you don’t want to get pinched, do you, even virtually? :lol: You’ll find the dress on the desk on the 3rd floor.

[Mock Cosmetics] sent this skin out to group members a couple weeks ago; check your notices, but hurry, as they vanish after 14 days! Katherine comes with light and dark brows, 3 brow shapes, a hairbase, delasher, “mock and mole,” and Lolas skin appliers. The [mock] group is 250L to join, but the gifts are plentiful – in fact, the notices are bursting with them! My jewelry is the March group gift from Lazuri (free to join), and includes the necklace, earrings, and bracelet. You get to choose from several different metals, gems, and pearls, so if green isn’t your color, there are lots more from which to choose.

My Irish Wish for you is that you are having a blessed and safe Saint Patrick’s Day today. Be careful with the green beer, folks. ;-)

When the winds of March are wakening the crocuses and crickets,
Did you ever find a fairy near some budding little thickets,…
And when she sees you creeping up to get a closer peek
She tumbles through the daffodils, a playing hide and seek.
~Marjorie Barrows

I can’t resist a good fairy dress, especially one as spectacular as this. The details are amazing, and I love the way the wings flutter when I walk/fly. It also got a big “thumbs up” from my RL daughter, who I consider to be quite the expert on all things fairy. :-)

The White Armory is offering this dress as it’s current weekly group gift (free to join), and you can fly off with it yourself until Saturday evening.

Petite Finds @ The Wash Cart Sale

Hey fabulous petites! Think there’s nothing for you at The Wash Cart Sale? Well, I’m here to tell you that there is plenty of 10L goodness for you, too! But you’ll need to hurry, because the sale ends TODAY! 8O

twcspetite3f

This sweet, Elegant Rose Dress is by DemotiK, and is available for just 10L at The Wash Cart Sale. It also comes in red, if that’s more your flavor. My hair is the latest release from “”D!va”" for the March round of Collabor88. Two styles come in the box, and you can wear them with or without the color-changing ribbon and flowers. I’ve sized it way down to fit, of course, but one reason I love “”D!va”" hair so much is because I can size it to fit my petite avie. “More bang for your buck,” if you know what I mean (make a copy first)! :-)

If you’re looking for something a little different, check out this Somewhere Over the Rainbow dress and stockings from the Zanzibar creationZ cart. Obviously, I felt like dancing when I put it on. :-) Oh, I should tell you about these fabulous poses, too. Diesel Works is a guest designer at this month’s round of Collabor88, and is offering a set of 11 poses for 188L. I love the dramatic movement of some of them!

Finally, this Okami skin is available from the Aeva//Heartsick cart (note that this is only a skin, not the complete petite avatar). Love already showed you the “regular avatar” version, but I couldn’t resist showing you the petite version. Very unique, and only 10L! My eyes are a free wearable demo from Skinthesis, and come in two sizes of light and dark versions (I’m wearing light).

Break A Leg

Snapshot_009

Good morning Fabulouses!  I have a busy day ahead of me, but I just knew when I saw this gift that I had to show it to you ASAP! This “Break A Leg” gift set is the latest group gift at Even.flow and includes the mesh body suit, legwarmers, heels, arm warmers, headband and the dancing pose.

Seeing this gift on my avatar gave me flash backs of my older sister doing aerobics in the rumpus room, blasting her records with songs like “Hey Mickey”, and “Eye Of The Tiger”…  Tossing my Mini-Pops records aside <sighs>.  Little sisters get no respect I tell you.    Don’t worry about me though, I got my payback when I finally grew close enough to the same size to “borrow” all her best clothes :D

A Jolie Fleur du Soir

Gavin is humoring me today while I “play pixie” again. :-)

ydeakc5f

I wanted to show you this gorgeous petite dress, La Fleur du Soir, the current group gift at Kastle Rock Petites. The group is free to join, and the sim is simply lovely, so be sure to give it a wander. You can see a little peek of it behind us (please click to enlarge).

Gavin is wearing the latest group gift from *Ydea*, also free to join. Included are the mesh hoodie jacket, shirt and tie, jeans, and shoes. Gavin’s Rhett hair is a pre-opening, sneak peak from brand-new designer { Quandry }. You can pick it up at the preview price of 100L for a little while longer at {EPIC}. 5 colors are included in the box, all with a little, red tip in the front. Scarlett, a long braid, is also on preview for the ladies.

ydeakc8f

What I really wanted to show you is this skin. Aeva // Heartsick is currently having a sale, with lots of skins available for 100L each. When I saw that they were previewing a couple of new petite skins, I was intrigued, and tried the demo. Jolie Petite comes in several different shades, and includes a red, rose outfit in the box. Now, I won’t lie to you; it’s a bit of a pain putting a new skin over your petite avatar. Nothing at all like putting a new skin on your “biggie.” But it’s not hard – read the directions! – and I think the results are definitely worth it! Have you ever seen lips like this on a petite before?

My earrings are not free, but they are on sale at !ELEMENTAL PETITE for 50L. They are texture change with silver/gold metals, and 4 different gems. My hair is a free group gift from “”D!va”" (free to join; 30,000 Members Gift), and I’ve sized it waaaaay down to fit. All the “”D!va”" hairs I’ve tried are resizeable, and can be made to fit petite avatars; be sure you take a copy first. This one includes flowers, which I’m not wearing, a “wig” with a couple of extra buns, and there’s even a dress in the box! :-)

UPDATED 2/20/13 12:37 PM SLT: Great news! The designer has put the 2 Jolie Petite skins back out for sale because so many people were asking for them! They are still for sale at 100L/per shade so hurry over and grab them. I just picked up the Black Rose version, and I can’t wait to try it. She will also be putting out a 10L petite skin at The Wash Cart Sale, which opened today and Love wrote about this morning. I haven’t seen it yet, so let me know what you think if you try it! :-)

UPDATED 2/18/2013 9:57 PM SLT: I’m sorry to report that the skin sale at Aeva // Heartsick has ended. :-( Hopefully the Jolie Petite skins will be available in the store soon.

I Love Noel in the Springtime

agg3f

It’s no secret that I love fantasy clothing. I don’t role-play; I just like to dress dress the part. :-) Anyway, this lovely satin, brocade gown is -Lara- Turquoise, the February group gift from *Aggressione*. The group is free to join, and when you do, you’ll get another little giftie just for joining! If turquoise isn’t your color, there are 6 others from which to choose, all for 100L each.

agg8f

When I saw this gorgeous Noel skin from -Belleza- advertised for today’s Fifty Linden Friday, I knew I had to have it. I mean, how beautiful IS that eye shadow?! Such a perfect match for the -Lara- dress. I’m a child of the 70s, and blue eye shadow never looked so good, trust me. So if you like Noel too, head over to -Belleza- before midnight tonight or you’ll miss the sale.

I’m standing near the landing point of The Realm of Mystara North, to which I was introduced by the blog, Where’s Dim Sum? That cat really knows the best places to visit, so I suspect I’ll be following her around more often. ;-)

Go Medieval in Redrum

pekas11f

It’s Guy’s Day here at FabFree! Must be all the testosterone in the air for tomorrow’s Big Game (the Super Bowl in the U.S.). But our male readers are fabulous too, so you certainly deserve a day! :-)

In case you’re feeling the need to “go all medieval” today, you’ll want to hurry down to PeKas and pick up this Redrum outfit, their current group gift. The PeKas group is free to join, and there is also a female gift in the box. The outfit does not include shoes, so I’ve added a pair of brown Men’s Pirate Boots from ::Duh!::. Not only are they free, but they also come in black and red and have several pirate accessories attached. You can find the boots upstairs on the freebie board. My skully ring, which you can barely see, is a group gift from Chop Zuey at the Menstuff Lounge (50L to join).

pekas9f

The skin I’m wearing is Kal V2, the current men’s group gift from AKERUKA. It comes with the facial hair that you see here. The AKERUKA group is 250L to join, but the group gifts – male and female – are always awesome.

I’m standing on a ship at the landing point of the Realm of Usk, a friendly, medieval, role-play sim. If you are interested in medieval RP, be sure to dress appropriately, put on a visitor tag, and check it out.

Frisky ColorBlock Fox

Snapshot_001I had a lot of fun putting this look together!  Some of you may remember a store called Vershe that had closed down a while back, but they are up and running in SL again, and celebrating their return with many, many gifts for their VIPs (50L to join) in the way of midnight mania boards, lucky boards, group gifts and even “Freebie Fridays”!

The Foxy ColorBlock Fox look today is made up of the Pluk Skin that can be won at Vershe in the Midnight mania board with just 45 slaps.  The ColorBlock Dress is the group gift, and the Mimi Flats : Gothic, which came in both blue and red (I’m wearing the blue) are a lucky board prize.  The offers are available to VIPs only, and again the fee to join is 50L.  The bags that these items came in, are useable after you open them up – the gift that just keeps on giving! lol

At No Wow, you can pick up a gift (no need to join a group) in the lobby area called Very Important Free stuff that contains a ton of great stuff like poses, makeup tattoos, The Hungry Hearts Tights I am wearing, as well as the Frisky Fox Headband and the Croix Noire Necklace.

Stay tuned to see the Freebie Friday @ Vershe – I’m workin on it!

ps.  If you have an old Vershe LM, use this one – http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Arctic%20Blue/73/201/22 (The old LM is SO not Vershe anymore…  it’s a BDSM castle from what I hear lol and there are no cute dresses there.)
