Posted on April 14, 2013 by Claranna Wardell

Ahoy to all you amazing FabFree viewers!

I am Claranna Wardell but you can call me Clar (pronounced like Claire).

This has been a dream of mine to write for FabFree since Fall of 2009 and I am so glad to be here!

I am pleased to bring you tons of little treasures for my first blog post. These skins all come from Mother Goose’s. Mostly from the Lucky Boards but a few dollarbies on the front counter.

I am not covering any skins that Love Trill previously covered because you can see her amazing 40 free skin post here.

For those in need of some brightening up, there is also a FREE [JP] Facelight that is behind the front counter on the lower shelf at Mother Goose’s.

Ydea is All It’s Cracked Up to Be

Posted on November 4, 2012 by Calgon Foxdale

(Day 2 in the Crack Den) I woke sometime during the night to the sound of someone rummaging through my bags. I guess when you live on the streets, you get a sense of where you can find “treasure.” It was a young kid and as soon as I snatched the bag from his hands, muttering “scram kid,” he gave me a wide-eyed look and took off. I figured I better get on my way since I’m sure he would be bringing back friends soon and they’d be much larger and not so easily frightened. I went through my bag and tried out some clothes that I’d picked up at Ydea Style - free gifts for their members. I slipped on the Neal outfit, which included white-belted jeans, a rolled-up sleeve buttoned shirt with button-flap pockets, and sneakers. I looked myself over and although I looked sharp in it, I realized that with the white belt I might as well advertise my presence with a neon sign.

I dug further into the bag and found another member gift outfit from Ydea… this one called Dalton. Dalton and Neil are the latest gift releases and I found them on their back wall in the main store. Dalton’s outfit included some nice looking ripped jeans and a loosely buttoned long-sleeved shirt that blended in better for this part of town. It also came with shoes more suitable for running and a razor necklace – both of which might come in handy. As I made my way along the deserted streets in the pre-dawn twilight, I noticed the light of a nearby street lamp glinting off my necklace and made me realize… what am I thinking? I swapped it out and put on another necklace that I picked up as a free member gift from Grasp. This one had a skull and cross, which might not have been as badass-looking as a razor blade but at least it couldn’t be used against me.

Not wanting to litter, I tossed the razor blade in a nearby trash can and realized the folly of my actions when the “clank” of the necklace hitting the bottom of the can at that time in the morning sounded like someone banging a gong. Sure enough, my buddy from the day before (still wearing the white vest) popped out of a nearby doorway and said, “if it isn’t my fashion consultant… nice threads.” I didn’t even wait. I stripped down and handed him all of my clothes and to my surprise he handed me his jeans. He pointed up the street and said, “I’d go that way if I were you.” So half naked, in an Akeruka skin “Neo” (free member gift this month), I finally escaped the crime-ridden streets of Crack Den and made my way back to the safety of SL shops… well ok.. relative safety.

Thank you for the great tip on this skin, Love!

An All Hallow’s Eve

Posted on October 29, 2012 by Calgon Foxdale

You never know who or what’s going to show up at your doorstep on Halloween. So I wasn’t completely surprised when I heard a commotion and stepped out on the back porch to find Freddy Kreuger and Tiger Lady clashing claws. I wasn’t sure who was going to win but I wasn’t sticking around to find out. I did get the info on the goods though. It seems that Freddy does all his clothes shopping at Ydea (including his wicked claw), and the tigress found her Wild Fursuit by Plausible Body on the SL Marketplace.

I heard the front door knockers and quickly closed – and locked the back door and rushed to the front, grabbed the bowl of candy and opened the door to see who was there. I dropped the bowl in shock, candy scattering everywhere when I was greeted by two skeletons (mesh avis by Plausible Body) holding out their bags open. They were surrounded by little critters that rushed in and scarfed up all the candy and took off down the porch steps into the night followed by their undead escorts.

I found myself out of candy and any desire to answer the door for the rest of the evening. So I curled up in front of the fireplace with a good book and a glass of beer, ready to enjoy a quiet evening when I heard from the shadows, “bleh bleh bleh…”

Please… Don’t Feed the Vampires!

Posted on October 25, 2012 by Calgon Foxdale

It is said that the nosferatu hunt throughout the night and sleep during the day. So I don’t know what I was thinking when I decided to spend a night walking through an abandoned part of old London. I wasn’t able to sleep, and after a couple hours of beating the feathers out of my pillow, I finally tossed on some clothes, cinched up my boots, grabbed a bag of my favorite chips – garlic flavored kettle chips (so I carry a toothbrush around with me… don’t hate), and went for a stroll in the moonlight. It was a very peaceful walk and I was enjoying the solitude.. up until I heard, “bleh bleh bleh… ” I turned to find that I was suddenly not alone. I was staring at a dark stranger wearing a cape, with odd eyes and a creepy smile and a hat that hadn’t seen the light of day since the Seven Years War. He had a strange pallor to his skin and when he smiled I could swear I saw fangs gleaming off the light from a nearby lamp post.

Then I put two and two together, after realizing what he had said and I replied,

“Really? Bleh bleh bleh? Real vampires don’t say that, but that is a cool outfit, dude. Want some chips?”

I extended my bag to him and he took one whiff, shrieked and turned into a bat, causing all of his clothes to fall to the ground in a crumpled heap as he skittered away. As I watched him vanish into the murky night, I muttered, “must not be his flavor” and then checked out what he left behind. Being a discerning wearer of clothes, I wasn’t going to put on just any ol’ vampire outfit. So I checked the labels and discovered that I had scored on a bunch of free stuff! I donned all of the clothing and when I put on the hat… my hair, eyes and skin changed! Kinda creepy… Then I felt something strange about my teeth and realized I was going to need to upgrade my dental insurance. I’d also lost my appetite for chips.. of any flavor. What good is it to have great teeth if I can’t eat chips?? I guess you can’t win ‘em all..

The cool vampire outfit that Cal is wearing, which includes shirt, pants, and cape is a Trickster hunt gift that can be found at Vero Modero -

Lazy Days of Summer

Posted on June 27, 2011 by AlisaDexter

I love this heart tank and short set, it also comes with a little jean skirt, which I’m wearing. It’s from Zenith and is their gift for the Sand & Sun Hunt (S&SH). The hunt runs from June 15 thru July 20th so you have plenty of time to find the little red sand bucket.

OMG, I was so surprised and excited when I received these Flax Pye Amsterdam shoes. They have a sunset on the side. I love the color and they matched my outfit perfectly. These are in the Flax Pye Shoes group notices. I did notice there is a $250L group join fee now.

JUNWAVE Hair has a new group gift hair out. It’s a cute cool pigtail and called Rebecca and comes in this blonde shade. It’s great for a lazy summer day. My necklace is TOXIC KITTY’s Simple Rosary Group gift.

Summer wouldn’t be complete without sloshing thru the muddy edge of the water looking for clams. These sunday boots from TOXIC KITTY will get you thru and keep your feet nice and dry. I changed into TOXIC KITTY’s Dollie top. Both of these are group gift’s from TOXIC KITTY.
