Monday Rocking

Rocking out blog photo

I decided I wanted to rock out on Monday! Wait Monday? I thought no one liked Monday. Well I love it for all the great freebies/dollarbies I found!

The beautiful mesh tank top I am wearing in this photo is from *COCO* and it is a free group gift along with a wall of other gifts with no join fee! How great you can get around 20+ free items by just going to this one store. The stream of music notes you see stringed along my neck is from (Slow Kitchen) who also has a wall of dollarbies ranging from clothes,accessories, to sky-boxes all for 1L.

The splash of color you see graced upon my fingers are the new group gift from [Bamboo Nails]. There are a total of 6 colors in this berry colored set and you can change the size,length, and color of each nail on the easy click hud. One last dollarbie for this post are the set of bracelets on my wrists which  come in a whole outfit (not shown) for only 1L from [AdN] on the marketplace. You can’t beat a deal like that.

I’m all rocked out so off I go to lounge around.

See you all!

Casual Friday at the Cherry Cafe

Thank goodness it’s the weekend! RL work has been kicking my fanny, and I’m so happy to get out in the fresh air. I decided to take my bicycle for a spin and found this cute cafe at Bay City… perfect place to relax with a cup of tea and a good book. 8-)

I’m wearing a mesh shorts and shirt combo, which is a group gift at CHANDELLE. Now, there are two different VIP groups at CHANDELLE: a free group and a not free group. This gift is for the free group. :-) The shirt comes in white and black, and the shorts come in black, blue, pink, sea (like a seafoam green), and purple, which I’m wearing. I should tell you that these items aren’t exactly made to fit standard sizing. I normally wear a size XS, but here I’m wearing M. But… they’re free, so give ‘em a try, and see if there’s a size for you. My mesh ankle boots are a group gift from *COCO* (free to join). I decided to add a pair of socks from Maitreya, but the boots themselves do not come with socks.

I am so loving the new applier HUD nails for Slink Avatar Enhanced Hands! My RL nails are super short and unpolished, but I never have to leave my SL home without a perfect mani/pedi. These gorgeous nails are the new group gift from Izzie’s (250L to join). There are 10 different designs in the HUD, and appliers for both fingers and toes. My Analog Dog hair is not free, but is featured until May 12th at Genre for 100L. I ♥ the casual, yet sexy, Princess Leia buns. ;-)  Love has shown you this Gold Heart Key necklace before, but I couldn’t resist wearing it myself. It comes in 3 different lengths, and is currently featured as a group gift at Energy Club (free to join). My little Pearl Daisies earrings are one of 3 pairs in a recent group gift from Gossamer Jewellery (I showed a different style here). You’ll find them in the group notices… still there as of tonight, but don’t dawdle, as they won’t be there much longer!

Another COCO Fix :)

Snapshot_005

On Wednesday when I was showing those fabulous group gifts at COCO, I realized that one of the newer gifts that was released around Christmas hasn’t been shown here yet!  Here’s a little quickie to show you the mesh Tuxedo Jacket & Sequin Dress that can be picked up as a free group gift at COCO with your free tag activation!  Really, they are all so fabulous, I’d like to show them all again lol, but alas.. there are just so many things to show and so little time –   Back to work I go! :)

GO SNAG THIS GORGEOUS DRESS!

It’s A Casual Coco Wednesday

Snapshot_009

Today is a casual day for me, and I’m chillin in some really nice group gifts from COCO.  If you haven’t been to COCO,  you’ll want to check out the giant wall of free gifts!  The group is free to join too :) .  I am wearing the (mesh) Turtle Neck Sweater, Black Ankle Boots & (rigged mesh / adjustable) Fur Leg Warmers, but these are just three of the many  gifts available.

The ripped blue jeans I am wearing are one of the two pairs you can win in the midnight mania board at SAKIDE that I have previously shown.  The skin I am in incidentally is called Wednesday… What a perfect day to be wearing it, on Wedensday! lol  You can find this gorgeous skin in three skin tones for 70L at The Dressing Room Fusion.

Hope you are enjoying your Wednesday as much as I am!

Only In Second Life…

Snapshot_001

It’s a beautiful day today, and I thought I would head outside for a leisurely walk…  I put on my snuggly Lounge Cardigan in blue and a pair of Shiny Vintage Floral Jeans from SAKIDE that I had won from the midnight mania boards the night previously (150 slaps is all it takes!), and slipped into my Coco Suede Boots.  I have worn these a billion times, but they still look brand  new – and are still available as a group gift.  I  nearly forgot my camera rushing out the door, afraid I would miss the sun, but snagged my Doo Dads Camera For Neck at the last minute just in case I found myself a photography inspiration!  This fun photography accessory is available for 1L in the Doo Dads Marketplace store.

I made my way to the Vespertine Sim because the scenery is always so beautiful, changing with the seasons.   I got no more than 3 steps before spotting what appears to me to be the Cola Bear running around in circles.  I never did snap that picture – was frozen in shock!  Only in SL will you see something like that!

 ”Say Cheese!” <SNAP>

Soleil, Candy, and Coco at the Beach

That title sounds like an exotic drink, and to be honest, I could really have used one today. For starters, it was Monday, and that should have been bad enough, right? Well, it wasn’t, and making matters worse, my car battery was DOA this morning, leaving me grounded for the day, and my dog left me a little “gift” on the carpet. Thankfully, I didn’t get any gum on my shoes like Love did, but I did run into a couple of doors. Sheesh! So the first chance I got, I grabbed my bag and headed out to the beach for a little peace and quiet.

prism_beach8f

Needing something comfy to wear, I slipped into this pretty, mesh maxi-dress, which is Prism’s Night of the Wolf Hunt gift (#87). Just perfect for strolling along a sunny SL beach in January. :-)

prism_beach9f

In my “stressful day survival kit,” I have all the essentials for relaxing at the beach: water, sunscreen, my iPad, and a couple of fashion mags. You, too, can de-stress with one of these cute bags by heading over to *COCO* and joining their free group. Plus, there are lots of other gifts on the wall just waiting for you to scoop them up!

Yesterday, I showed you a skin by {.essences.}, which is available this month at The Dressing Room Fusion. Well, I liked it so much that I ran over to their main store to pick up the free group gift that Love wrote about here. Turns out that {.essences.} is participating in the Womenstuff Hunt, and has this lovely Soleil skin (below) out as one of their gifts. I think she has a very youthful, fresh-faced look, don’t you? And the name just calls out for sunshine!

prism_beach14f

I promise I’m not stalking Love, but after she wrote about the adorable gift hair from Amacci, I decided to head over and pick one up for myself. And while I was scoping out Amacci’s freebie wall, I found these GreyBrown eyes. They come in 2 sizes, and with some extra bling, if you’re feeling particularly sparkly. Oh, and today is the LAST DAY that you can snag a fatpack of my Candy hair from ^;^CaTwA^;^ so hustle over there now if you haven’t already done so!

Hey Love, can you pass me a glass of wine please? :-)

Warming Me Up

Snapshot_003

Goodness, the designers of SL were so generous with their group gifts this holiday season! Dura put out this adorable winter toque with hair in a few colours (We all know how hard it is to fit hats with hair!!) as a free group gift for their inworld members (free to join).  There is also a men’s version so make sure you drag your guy along too!

The skin I am in is called Santa Skin / Christmas 2012 and is a free group gift from Mojo (also free to join).   It features a warm dark skintone, luscious plump lips and the sweetest dimples you ever did see.

Snapshot_004The Warm Me Up Top (mesh) & Leggings, made by Sira Savira of 1Hundred can be found in several colours exclusively featured at The Frost Fair in tons of great colours for just 50L each.  You purchase them separately and you can  mix and match the colours!

Love these fantastic rigged mesh boots?  Me too – They  have been blogged a bazillion times previously, but if you missed them they are still a free group gift at Coco, where you have access to LOADS of gifts after you join their free inworld group.

I’m off to tackle mount laundry!  Have a super day everyone!

Dirty Turkey Hunting

Snapshot_0062vThe Dirty Turkey Hunt V3.0 began on November 1st and runs until November 30th!  If you haven’t checked out the official blog for this hunt yet, be sure to – because there are approximately 150 designers participating and the gifts (which are free!) that I have picked up so far, are a lot of fun!  The icon to search for is a little round turkey box.  In this post, I am displaying a few of the prizes you can find, and will be sure to show you more as I pick them up!

The playful hat I am wearing is called the Kawaii Turkey Chapka and is the gift you will find hidden at EPIC.  The Pilgrim Girl pose shown above with the pumpkins and the rifle can be found at Sparrowtree Studio Poses and also comes in a guy’s version.

Snapshot_007ffe

SAKIDE never disappoints with their hunt gifts!  They are always so generous with mix and match pieces, layers and options.  Their gift for the hunt is called the Huntress Outfit and it includes the Nature Bra & Panties Set shown above and the mesh Huntress Top and matching skirt below.

These great mesh suede boots are free, but have been previously blogged before.  I am  mentioning them again, because they are still available and may be new to some who missed the older posts.  These boots can be found as a free group gift at COCO Designs (no fee to join), in two colours.

She’s a COCO D!va in her Baby Monkeys…

She's a Coco D!va

It was late afternoon on the island of Armenelos as she was hugging the curves in the road with her Classic 43S GT (FREE!) from ZMO Autoworks on the Marketplace.  She was late for a dinner date and driving a bit too fast.  The cool autumn air caressed her skin and playfully pulled at the wisps of her Naomi Hair(onyx) (group gift/free to join) from “D!va”.  The soft dove colored cashmere Shirt Dress (group gift/free to join) from *COCO DESIGNS* kept her warm against the bracing air descending with the evening.  She still refused to wear stockings but her suede, studded Aubergine Nadine pumps (lucky board prize) from Baby Monkey Shoes kept her feet toasty as she pressed a little harder on the gas peddle.

Her handler from M16 had informed her that she would be meeting with the dashing owners of Armenelos, Tymus Tenk and Truck Meredith…her mission was to obtain the Golden Idol from their  Haunted Castle at BALFALAS; so she could gain access to the Lost City.  X pulled up the the Monkey Bar and immediately eyed the two men. She slid her lithe frame from the GT…her long legs stretched out as she stifled a yawn…knowing that she’d caught their attention.
She's a Coco D!va4

She slowly turned and gave them a langorous smile…casually turning her head so her spectral The Ghosts of Sweet William diamond earrings (SPECIAL FabFree gift…no group join required!) from CHOP ZUEY COUTURE JEWELRY glinted in the fading sunset.
She's a Coco D!va2
