This is what I come home to after a long day of shopping… seriously. It’s all “furbabies gone wild” in here!
I was just going to pop in here at the FabFree blog to tell you all about my new outfit that I picked up today because it’s so cute and totally affordable, but these critters are causing a ruckus! I SO know who instigated this whole mess. It wasn’t Brains, Brawn or Beauty… I am willing to bet it was Angel up there on the cabinet who set them all up, and I’ll deal with her furry butt in a minute, but first I have to tell you about this sweet deal!
Belle Epoque is participating in this round of The Chapter Four and has the most adorable gacha set, playing at just 50L a try. I am wearing the rare dress with one of the common purses, but there are also a handful of common dresses and a rare floral purse too. It didn’t take me long to get the rare dress I was after, so I hope you have the same luck!
Dogs – Half-Deer Shiba Inu (75L per play / instore gacha) Cat – Half-Deer Winged Cat (75L per play / instore gacha) Furnishings – 8f8 Granny’s Winter Cabin (60L per play / instore gacha) Dog Treats – Half-Deer Porcelain Dog Treat Jar & Dog Treat Clutter (featured @ The Chapter Four)
Don’t you love “happy accidents”? I had one of those moments when I visited Shae’s Boutique on a Hunt ( more about that later) While poking around looking for the prize I found a cute and tasty looking little gingerbread cookie. Much to my surprise, I couldn’t munch on it… it was a Hunt Prize! This is the “Faded Love” tee and jeans set from Shae’s Boutique and it’s the prize in that yummy little cookie for the 1L Gingerbread Winter Hunt.
This cute casual set comes with the layered tee shirt and the funky bell bottom jeans. Everything you need for a quiet afternoon in. Both pieces come in five Mesh sizes – xxs -L. Here’s a detail of the pattern on the jeans so you can see the great quality of this build.
The Gingerbread Winter Hunt only runs until December 25th so don’t delay!

Good afternoon Fabulous Readers! I have to start my post off by warning you that you will probably want to grab a coffee or make sure you are comfy in your chair because this is a looooong post! I usually try to keep my posts short and sweet, but when I opened the rest of The Arcade Gacha gifts that I picked up under the tree I found that there was a ton of décor and I decided to put a little set together. I was so happy with how it turned out that I called Astrid over to snap a photo with me! Aside from the décor items that I will mention shortly, I wanted to also tell you about a couple things Astrid and I are wearing. Astrid’s red hot little number is called Eclipse Mini and can be found, priced at 10L for the Christmas on 34th Street Event. My sparkly black Holiday Cocktail Dress is not only fab for your upcoming holiday events, but makes for a great date night dress any time of the year. This dress is by [RUBY] and can be picked up for FREE in the KittycatS Advent Calendar! Instead of tossing on a necklace as I usually would, I decided to wear some ink instead! I don’t normally wear a lot of ink, but when I came across the Creed Tattoo by White Widow as a FREE Peace on Earth Hunt Prize, I knew it would be hot with a black dress! This tattoo works with system bodies and comes with a ton of different appliers for mesh bodies. Ok! Now onto the décor! I started off my little holiday room with the Pixel Mode Remington Chaise and Fireplace which are 50L per play at The Arcade Gacha. I rezzed a copy of my favourite Christmas Tree by LAQ Décor and then decorated with ALL FREE gifts from under the tree at Arcade Gacha (which is much easier to get into now, in case you are wondering!)
Seats – Ariskea Season of Giving – These come in a pack of two and make great little tables.
Eggnog Tray – Baclava Eggnog Tray – Allows you to turn the steam on and off.
Tea – Tres Blah Cozy Winter Teacup – Just one little prim and is super cute with lemon.
Puppy in Box – Xin What’s In The Box – A holiday box with a pup hiding inside.
Layered Cake – Dust Bunny Berry Cake – Layered berry cake and cream on a wooden plate.
Art – Garbaggio All I Want For Christmas Is Shoes – comes in both red and white and is resizable.
Fireplace Décor 1 – D-LAB + LIZAIL Santa Gift – a little Santa!
Fireplace Décor 2 – DRD Arcade Gift Miniature Bastion – A large snowglobe that actually snows.
Fireplace Décor 3 – r(s)w The Little Drummer – Manny – A wooden drummer boy.
Fireplace Décor 4 – Madpea Soldier Follower – I am using this as décor, but it is actually a Soldier that follows you as you walk! Whew, if you are still here… thanks for sticking with me Fab Readers.
ps. Thank you to Astrid too, for making my house 10 degrees hotter!
It’s anchors away —
With a quickie here!
You won’t want to delay —
Or you may shed a tear —
And miss out on this gift!
You must be swift —
And to Meva hurry over —
To get this gift of silver!
[poem by Astrid de Manyet]
Like many creators on the grid, Meva is generously hosting an advent calendar and giving daily gifts. All you have to do is join the group and wear your group tag. One of my favorite avatars to ‘wear’ in second life is a siren (you can glimpse the scales on my avatar in this picture), and so I loved today’s giftie — silver Anchor Earrings!
This advent gift is good for today only so hurry over to pick it up! It is FREE with your group tag so don’t forget to don the tag before clicking the advent calendar. The group is 100L to join but if you head over each day (counting today), there will be 13 total gifts for you to pick up for your small one time fee to join the group. Well worth it!
Speaking of advents, my cute pose is another advent. Be sure to check out Eternal Dream Poses. They too are hosting a fabulous advent giftie each day. The advents are a surprise so I can’t tell you which day.
You can get the gifts one of two ways: FREE with your group join (200L to join the group with a total of 24 gifts — the doors don’t close you can pick up the past gifts too!) or if you are low on group space you can pick up each gift individually for the tiny sum of just 10L!
The pose I used here included cute wearable snowflakes (not shown), but the pose was so fantastic I wanted to show it off, even without the prop!

We have a fantasy packed whirl wind of FREE goodies today!
Lets start with The Fantasy Collective which only runs til Dec 15th so don’t delay. Its their birthday so many of the shops have set out FREE gifts to celebrate. Look for the big pumpkins by the stalls. You will need to join the FREE group . My mesh dress is from the *LE* Amarie stall. The Eifee Gifth stall is giving out my Flowers Deerr Horns. My mesh Koko Mixed hair with attached feathers and a nice color hud is from the Damselfly stall.
I also checked out the Into the Woods hunt which also runs til Dec 15th. There are some really nice prizes they will cost you 2L each but so worth it. I snapped up my cool poses which come with the props (books & globes) from Belle Poses, you get 5 really nice fantasy poses all for only 2L. My pretty Lucinda Tan skin is the prize form WOW skins and even includes Omega appliers for all those mesh head and body users out there. You get it all again for only 2L. The hints can be found on the Into the Woods hunt page.
I feel down the rabbit hole and came out the other side a rabbit!
COCO Designs is giving out this great mesh rabbit avatar for FREE with a FREE group join. This can be worn be females and males. So you and your significant other can both be rabbits. You get both grey and cinnamon fur colors. You also get 3 heads, open eyes, closed eyes and blinking eyes. The jacket pictured does not come with the FREE avatar gift. I was so taken by this avatar I actually bought the clothes that are made to go with it. There are 3 outfits. They are not free but well made and I felt worth the Lindens. Of course this rabbit is so cute you can use it without any clothes. I am using my [SINSE] Female Lite AO Motion Capture (v3.2) AO found on Marketplace for 1L It works really well as you can see in the pics. I didn’t use any poses just snapped the pics with the AO on. There is also a male version of this AO for your male rabbit friends.
This is what I come home to after a long day of shopping… seriously. It’s all “furbabies gone wild” in here!
“ANGELLLLLL! You are so getting a new name.”
