To the last, I grapple with thee;
From Hell’s heart, I stab at thee;
For hate’s sake, I spit my last breath at thee.
– Herman Melville
(and this year’s winter)

I’m just so over you….

With the first day of calendar spring just a few short days away, one would think that the sun would be shining, the birds singing and flowers beginning to rise from the ground….
Nope, I was hit with a late winter surprise this week. I’m ready for short sleeves shirts and shorts, but it isn’t happening anytime soon, at least according to the weather report.
Today’s look was hard to find. Everyone is thinking spring and I had to fall back into winter. I remembered seeing a past group gift at Costarlos still out and decided to grab it before spring is here to stay. The Red Jacket with Shirt and Tie was a FREE Christmas gift to members that is still available and was very fitting for today. And I am still wearing the Black Pants, part of the $1L The Best of You Hunt gift from Wilson’s Designs.

Moving forward…

I’m so hoping that this is the final burst of winter. But at least it allowed me to show you some group gifts from Yack. By joining the group for FREE, you can pick up both the Waze Hat and the Zurich Scarf. Each comes with its own texture HUD to match your outfit. While at Yack, I also grabbed the FREE Basic Line Sunglasses. They come in three colors, black, blue and gold to keep the snow glare off your eyes.
Say goodbye winter. Don’t let the door hit you in the snowdrift. 😁

Hello Fabulouses! It’s almost Friday….thank goodness! This has been quite an eventful week in RL for me, and I’m really looking forward to the weekend. While Ripley and I were out exploring, a group notice from Fabulously Free in SL (my *fav* group ever!) popped on my screen, detailing the newest free group gift from Eloise Baker. Of course, after one peek at the photo, I high-tailed it over to the Time Portal sim as fast as my fingers could click the link!

Lavender Love

My spring floral dress in a lovely purple hue is the free gift offered to FabFree members at Eloise Baker. This sweet, strappy feminine frock features a slightly flared and ruffled skirt. With pastel-colored, contrasting flower-dotted panels, and a curve hugging fit, this dress is sure to flatter any figure. Its timeless, classic design can be accessorized for vintage role play, yet also is perfect for a casual, modern look. Soft and graceful, this dress is definitely one of my most favorite Fabulous Finds!

What’s Included:

Applier for Belleza, Hourglass, Maitreya, and Slink
Fitmesh for classic avatars in XS, S, M, L, and XL
Alpha layer for classic avatars

To Top it All Off

To add an elegant touch, and shield my eyes from the bright sunshine, I donned a wide-brimmed summer sun hat, which I scooped up for a mere 29L at the MESHit store on the Marketplace. Since it’s completely customizable, it was easy to edit the color and texture of the hat so that it perfectly coordinated with my dress. It seems as if they were made for each other! I love the mysterious aura I get with the angle of the brim covering my eyes. With its reasonable price, and flexible options for color and textures, this versatile topper is sure to find its way into many blog pictures in the future.

Better Days are Coming…

… namely Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! I hope the rest of your week passes smoothly, and you have plenty of free time to visit boutiques or do whatever you like in SL. Until my next post, happy shopping!
