She’s a CHOP ZUEY Fascinator in her *Bliss Couture*…

Ok…so Halloween is now only a few short days away and you’ve seen just about every type of costume there is in SL.  What if you’re looking for a costume that isn’t really a costume…something with a little bit of that dark All Hallows Eve edge but with elegance.  Then you are in luck!  This fabulous Halloween Dress from *Bliss Couture* is dark and edgy, airy and elegant, and sleek and sexy.  It is also FREE when you become a *Bliss Doll* (member group/free to join).  The detailing on this wonderful dress is a gauzy netting with bats in flight…I love that the edging on the top and skirt is formed by the bat silhouette.  Perfect for dancing the night away with your immortal beloved.

I couldn’t resist pairing the dress with the equally edgy yet elegant Itsy Bitsy Spider Fascinator (group gift/350L to join and worth EVERY linden!) from CHOP ZUEY COUTURE JEWELLRY.  The detailing in this amazing hat contrasts and yet compliments the dress.  The Bat necklace is a 2009 group gift from Alienbear Design….which is free to join, however, you won’t need to join the group to score this amazing piece of jewelry…just follow the embedded link to the Marketplace and it is yours for FREE!  I also picked up the Jewel Bat Earrings *PROMO* (15L) on the Marketplace from Xia’s Boutique…these earrings are loaded with color/texture and size change options!

So what are you waiting for…grab your favorite undead dance partner and haunt the night away in style.

NONKO Dress Hat

Camp for this sweet romankan dress hat for only nine minutes. Very cute, and it fit over my hair with very minimal adjustment.. how often does that happen?

Merry Christmas from Tea Lane and Nooby Doo!

Tea Lane has some cute, cute cute hair that will really brighten your Christmas, as well as the coming New Year! You can still find all these under the tree (1 L$ each) at Tea Lane and Nooby Doo.. hurry though!

This ‘Cindi’ hairstyle comes in two hat colour options both with, and without, the festive candy cane decorations which makes this hairstyle yummy all year round!

If caroling is part of your Christmas festivities, this dress is perfect! I feel pretty without being too prissy in this dress.. a perfect look for my more tomboyish nature.

Skating after caroling? Or maybe just skating? Try these on for a festive fit to the holiday spirit. They come complete with a skating animation — yay!

And last.. but certainly not least (I love mohawks after all!) is a cool minty green skin.. and look at this.. a candy cane mohawk!

/me dies and resists the urge to eat it so that she can wear it next year too.

This cute variation of the Cindi hairstyle is at Nooby Doo under the tree (along with some other gifts), and is definitely something I’ll be wearing with the neko ears I got in the POE hunt.

Oins, zwoa, gsuffa! Freebie fürs OKTOBERFEST in SL

Hollareidulijö!

Can´t spell the title and my adressing? Well, that´s german, or rather “bavarian german”:-))) It sounds strange for most of you but it means just “one, two, drink!” Don´t worry, no need to learn this language, all you have to do is grab a freebie One of the best freebies I´ve ever found. One of the most funniest freebies I´ve ever seen.*LOL* No, I`m not from Germany … I am from Austria. There´s a difference! But I like our friendly “neighbours” very much, we have the german language in common, also the bavarian and the austrian “slang” are very similar )

Well, first of all it´s a limited time freebie ! Nobody (unless the designer) knows when it lasts, that´s for sure ) Sooo … try to catch the D&M Oktoberfest Set while you can!

AND – now I´m breaking the rules *coughs* – I found it on SL Exchange. Usually, we don´t blog freebies listed on this site, or similar sites like Onrez, for some reasons. If I have to be punished for posting this freebie .. well, I don´t care .. I HAD to share it   However … before I started to write this post, I talked to Michaela Kuhn,   owner of D&M Collection, and she is the brilliant and generous designer of D&M Oktoberfest Set. She told me how to use the freebie as well as  another way to get the D&M Oktoberfest Set inworld. Any person wearing the backpack can give it away. Just click on the backpack, and a black box will drop into your inventory. Unpack it, and you will get leather pants, bavarian shirt, socks, shoes, Alp hat, mountain backpack, Oktoberfest flag, beer (a huuuuge pot!) and a hover banner. Not enough … this outfit is animated. Just type 1 into the chat line and you start …….. to yodel and dance like crazy *grins* Type 2 into the chat line and you will get a different yodel/dance/walkaround animation, could be you walk around a bit drunken ) EDIT: IF YOU WANT TO STOP DANCING JUST TYPE IN 0 INTO THE CHAT LINE! OMG, SO SORRY …. SOME OF YOU MIGHT BE STILL DANCING AROUND

I laughed myself to tears while taking the pics!  And my dogs were totally perplexed! Only Othello, the cat, wasn´t much impressed *giggles* Once again: big, big thank to Michaela Kuhn!

Okay, I have to come to an end with my gushing Here are a few important links:

Info about the (real life) Müncher Oktoberfest (german and english)

TP to Oktoberfest in Second Life:

Your place to get the freebie, look for people wearing the oufit and click the backpack! Perhaps, Michaela Kuhn herself will be around.

EDIT: Oktoberfest in SL takes place from October 09th until October 10th on the Sims Sub Lupina, Simulacron Shrouded Isle, Vistano Delphi Center, Downtown Babylon, Frankfurt SW and Frankfurt Nord.

There´s a group you can join for free to be informed about further details. The notices are in both languages german and english. Michaela Kuhn soon will sent out a detailled event schedule to the group including Slurls. Look at my profile to join Oktoberfest Group, or use this link, please secondlife:///app/group/c659ec51-480b-5fc9-45ea-5ac7cb8a652d/about

DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE TREASURE HUNT

Big, big thank you to nox Pinion, owner of Tea & Strychnine store, for letting me know about this great event called “DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE TREASURE HUNT”, and for dropping me her adorable hunt freebies!

I just quote here what nox Pinion`s notecard says … I couldn´t explain better (in my poor english) how the hunt works … AND I want to share the kind words about FabFree with you Thanks again, we appreciate it, nox

“I’m a longtime fan of FabFree – some of my favoritest outfits and accessories were picked up because of your reviews! If you haven’t been contacted already, I wanted to let you know about a sim-wide hunt taking place this Thursday-Monday, September 18-22.

It’s called Down the Rabbit Hole, and is an Alice-in-Wonderland themed hunt. Shops across the grid have special prizes hidden inside bottles hidden in their shops. Included in one bottle is a puzzle piece and a landmark to the next location. The idea is to collect the puzzle pieces (along with the other cool stuff!) and at the last location, assemble the puzzle for a chance to win 500L, 1500L or 3000L.

I’ve included copies of the items that can be found at my shop, as well as pertinent Down the Rabbit Hole Hunt info.”

THE HUNT STARTS AT Alice’s Looking Glass/Mad Hatter, Goguryeo 197, 166, 557

“TEA & STRYCHNINE” HUNT GIFTS ARE

“CHECKERED ALICE ENSEMBLE” – “CURIOUSER AND CURIOUSER PENDANT” – “OVERSIZED TIME-TELLING TEACUP HAT” – “TEAPOT HOUSE & BASE” – “POISEND TEA SET/SPECIAL FOR HUNT”

Pompeja Limited Special Release (Promo Box 10 Linden) – not sure if still available: Soft Touch Skin

SySy Chapman aka Oranje vs. The Rest of Football World:-)

A notecard in my inventory informed me about a 99 L clearance sale and new releases as gowns and beachwear at SySy`s by Sy Design. Well, sounds great! Guess, what else? Freebie!

SySy Chapman is driving me nuts with her football-mania *grin* Let me quote a part of her notecard:

Now the exciting stuff (at least, to me and other football fans )
As you may or may not know, i’m a huge HOLLAND team supporter, and we play tonight the quarterfinals, which we MUST win. LOL. I’m giving away a special orange edition of the sealife dress, complete with scarfs and hat and flags. You can come pick this up at the football gear booth across my mainstore. Packs for other countries still in the games are available for free as well! IF the dutch team wins tonight, be sure to visit the sim cause we’re going to have an INSANE party then!!!! I’ll be giving away giftcards randomly aswell then, coz i’m soooo happy if we win! LOLLLL

Yes, SySy, I agree with your” LOLLLL”! Because not the sale and not the new releases are exciting … no! It´s just the free football stuff Can´t stop laughing …..

Well, here´s the freebie (you can wear it without being an orange *g* or a football fan). Oranje Dress comes with top, pants, prim skirt, oranje scarf, holland scarf and a hat. It´s really cute! And I like scarfs. BUT I´m wearing MY flag – I´m from Austria – and it´s a gift from SySy Chapman, too! AND I´m wearing Cherlindrea Lamont´s group gift for FabFree Euro 2008 Peaches Skin Holland (because she didn´t make me an austrian skin, and of course because she´s my generous boss *sobs and smiles at the same time*). AND further I´m wearing the austrian hairflower, a gift from GaZoV Designs, because I like red flowers!

What can I do for Russia? Shall I dance “Kasatschok” or have some vodka drinks? *lol* Any whishes from our german neighbours? *lol*

Okay, grab your freebies, go for a walk and enjoy SySy Chapman`s new place, it´s wonderful! Update your landmarks if necessary: SySy`s by Sy Design Main, dAlliez 160, 191, 22.

SKG Shoes always has a weekly offer for 5 Linden. This time we are pleased with amazing FH Pointed Pumps in Pecan! I´m not sure how long the pumps will be there, but don´t worry if you miss it, there will be another great weekly offer.
