Il Neige!

I finally invested in a coat!  And by invested in, I mean I got it for free of course.  I am all bundled up and warm and looking quite cute (if I do say so myself) all without spending a single Linden cent (are there Linden cents?  No, there aren’t….but it sounded good right?)  Oh, and for those puzzling over my title, “Il Neige” means it’s snowing in French!  Anyway, want to be warm like me?  Read on!

Warmth, Parisian Style

I toddled my way over to the Swank event, and found that if I TP up to the winter wonderland forest, the creators have dappled the landscape with presents!  Take a wander through the woods, and you’ll find all sorts of goodies.  I picked up this really gorgeous coat and scarf combo by LUXE Paris for free!  I love the grey and cream colour combination, very classy.  It also comes with a fur hat and cuffs if you feel like you need a bit more warmth.  The Neige coat comes in the following sizes:

Sizes

• XXS-L and an Alpha Layer
• Fitted Mesh
• Belleza
• Eve Slim
• Maitreya
• Hourglass
• Physique

Sparkly Shoes

I couldn’t possibly overheat, so instead of boots I opted for some fabulous sparkly heels that I got delivered through notices from Reign.  They are being super generous to their group members and are sending out a gift every single day leading up to Christmas.  This is the first gift, which I’m not sure I want to take off!  What will they send next!?  The Reign group is currently 1000L to join, but you’ll be getting a gift each day until the 25th, plus there are several still available in the mainstore, so it is a sound investment.  Happy 12 Days of Reignmas!  The shoes come in a full fatpack of colours, and have sizes for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink.  Here’s a closeup for you!

Time to pound the pavement and get some more of this shopping done!

Right in the Kisser

It is so ON!

What started out as a nice, enjoyable walk in the snow, turned into an all out fight… a SNOWBALL fight that is. We were having a conversation, then, BAM! Right in the kisser! It was all out war until we were both covered in snow and fell back in a drift exhausted.

Match Game…

Before the great war to end all snowball fights, we happened upon a couple of great gifts at Club Escape. We both picked up the FREE matching Simon and Kimmie Jackets group gifts from Loud Rebel Designs (LRD). The sizes on the jackets are as follows:

Ladies Jacket Sizes:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Freya, Isis & Venus

Men’s Jacket Sizes:

• 2 Fitmesh sizes w/ alpha layers

We also picked up the group gift gloves from i.mesh at Club Escape that matched the jackets. The FREE Bento Male and Female Gloves are a welcome addition to my bento collection.

Capping it off…

I awoke to a notice that there was a new group gift at ARGRACE. The Shizuki Cap w/ Hair is FREE to group members and the included HUDs contains 6 cap color and 40 hair tones. There is also a ladies style group gift as well..

Only A Morning Person On December 25th

It’s true! I have said it time and time again…

I am just not a morning person, but this all changes on one day of the year…  December 25th!  On December 25th, I am up bright and early because I don’t want to waste a minute of the most wonderful day of the year.  Everyone is on their best behavior, you can eat and drink whatever you want and… There are presents!  When I saw this sweater in the Pinky Pie Stocking Hunt with the truth written all over the front at Pink Cream Pie, I knew it was made for me and had to have it so I checked out the rest of the hunt.  I found a few things that suit me, and am wearing prize #10 and #11 today!

Pinky Pie Stocking Hunt

The Pinky Pie Stocking Hunt lasts until the end of the month and until then you can pick up hidden pink stockings around the mainstore for 25L each.  Don’t worry, you won’t be stuck with stuff that you won’t wear, because there is a handy hunt guide below (you can find this guide instore on the wall too) so you can just pick up the number of the items that appeal to you!  Each item is original mesh, and most are fitted for Maitreya, Belleza and Slink.

Nailed It!

Just one more thing…  My Pearlessence White Nail Appliers are available at The Paying it Forward Event as a free group gift (free to join)!  I included the vendor add inside my photo so that you can see all of the pretty white and silver options :).

Sweet Dreams

Happy Saturday, Fabulous Readers!  Ripley, his pals and I are all waiting (a bit impatiently) for this bakery to open.  While we were out walking on the Oh Deer sim, we spied these tasty treats through the display window.  After a long, hard week at work, a girl and her pup deserve a sweet treat, don’t you think? 😉

Dear Santa…

The pup and I had built up an appetite as we made our along the Dear Santa Hunt trail.  It was well worth it because I scooped up this Ruffled Crop Top and Mini Skirt from Magnolia Designs for just one Linden dollar.  The lace trim along the edge adds the prettiest feminine touch, and I love the cheerful red and white print!  A pair of cute Mary Jane heels with knee high white stockings, complete with a bow and jingle bell are also tucked in the box, but are not showing in this shot.  The Dear Santa Hunt features two hunt prims at each store – one costs 25L and the other 1L, so if you are short on time, you can just pay the 25L fee and pick up the outfit immediately.  If you’re like me, and you are saving your Linden dollars for holiday gifts (yes, pal, that includes Ripley Snacks), you can invest some time and locate the 1L prim.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
• Maitreya
• Slink Houglass and Physique
• Tonic Curvy and Fine

I Hear Keys Jingling!

Yay!  Here comes the baker now…….  After we gobble down some goodies err…pick up some delicious bakery items, Ripley and I will head out to locate another Fabulous Find to share with you.  Until my next post, happy hunting!

Ax-Man…

I may not have mutant superpowers, but I can swing a mean axe. Who needs adamantium claws when this axe will split a stack of logs in a matter of minutes? I just hope there is a warm beverage waiting for me inside when I’m done.

A warm winter workout…

I may work up a sweat chopping wood, but I still need to keep warm. I found some FREE items to help you look fashionable while still getting the job done. The latest group gift at Resun Fashion is the Simon Black Jacket. The Resun group is FREE to join. The jacket comes in the following sizes:

• Signature
• Slink
• TMP
• Classic Sizes S-XL w/alpha layer

I hit it big on the group Lucky Boards at Rebellion . My letter came up as I was rezzing in and walked away with the Militant V-Neck Tee in just a matter of seconds. I am NEVER that lucky. The t-shirt comes with a texture HUD for four different color combinations. You need to be a member of the Rebellion group to play the boards, but the group is also FREE to join.

Bento gloves for my Bento hands…

Ever since I received the update for my body and now have Bento hands, I’m playing with them all the time (as some of my Flickr followers have seen).  And now I can use the Male Bento Gloves, a FREE group gift at E-Clipse Design. This gift also includes a texture HUD to change the gloves color to either Sand, Brown, or Black. Ladies, there is also a gift in your size too! And just like the other two gifts, the E-Clipse group is FREE to join. You don’t have to spend a lot to look good. Just axe (ask) me… 🙂
