It’s a Gift!

I’ve got a gift for you, FabFree!  Wait…don’t I always?

Get to Cosmo

One of the best events over the holidays is always checking out the tree at Cosmopolitan.  There are great gifts in the baubles hanging from the branches, and they are not to be missed.  To get them, just join for free and click on the decorations on the tree.  Some people derender the ones they’ve already clicked to keep track.  Here’s what I’m wearing:

• FREE top by FashionNatic sized for LaraX, Legacy, PetiteX, Reborn, Juicy & Waifu
• FREE earrings by Livia
• FREE hair from No.Match with plenty of natural colours in the HUD to choose from
• FREE pose and gift from Focus Poses

This round of Cosmopolitan is running until January 3rd!

In Hiding

Welp, Santa came into Secondlife and took the grid by storm!  It’s Santa’s Gift Storm!  Boy, this unexpectedly had me busy on Christmas Eve!  There are 45 stores participating, each one has a free gift for us.  A lot of the stores have the gifts under their group and have made their group free to join, some of them don’t need any group at all.  I’m flabbergasted by some of the super nice things this storm blew in!

Unisex holiday

I was pleasantly surprised at how many of these gifts were made for both male and female bodies, or are just unisex in general.  All you have to do is teleport to Santa’s Gift Storm’s starting location and click the sign.  Once you do, a NC of stores will drop right into your inventory.  Before you leave to collect your gifts, many of the stores at the landing spot have gifts so you can start there.  Also thank you Sekai for putting this all together!  Here’s some of what I picked up:

• Free Leather jacket from Gabriel (with scarf and tank, unisex, rigged for:  Jake, Gianni, Legacy, Lara X, Legacy, Reborn)
• Free Hat (and mask not shown) from [TRAP]

Although I didn’t blog it today, I want to mention that Vendetta has a very nice icy skin gift in this storm, which comes with a face skin and a body skin overlay.  I know a lot of men are having trouble finding body skin for their avatar, you should be able to add this overlay over the free skin in your welcome pack.  It’s in a very icy tone though, so you may be a little winter warlock-ish for now, but it should help to remove those baked on underwear you all don’t love so much. lol

The gifts should be available through January 2nd.

Peace Out

It’s a Marshmallow World

There was a fresh dumping of snow yesterday, so of course that means I have to put on a cocktail dress and have a snowball fight.   I fear no hypothermia!

Accessorize

Don’t you dare forget that Shop & Hop is still going – and it’s nice and quiet now that the crowds have died down.  You still have time to pick up the giant pile of free gifts that await you.  All the gifts at Shop & Hop are free with no group join required.  I’m currently wearing the snowball from MoonSha which I can toss and catch quite nonchalantly, as well as the delicate necklace that comes from NaaNaa’s and is rigged for Ebody, LaraX & Legacy bodies.

Shop & Hop is running until January 4th, and you can find our giant guide to all the gifts right HERE.

Sparkle On

Happy Holidays to all, no matter what you celebrate during the season! There are still gifts waiting for you around the grid. Today I’m focusing on another gift from the Swank Winter Wonderland event. We, here at FabFree, love showing off sparkly & shiny things so here is my new find.

Shimmer and Shine

I oohed & ahhed when I unpack the free gift at the Swank Winter Wonderland from GGVG. It sparkles! And it comes with a massive 40 color hud. I was in a sparkly mood thus it worked out well for me. At first, I was going with the dress in white but found that it didn’t show enough of the sparkly things. I whipped out the hud and changed it to this nice green hue. Jianna has the daring dress with a matching pair of long gloves.

Sizes

• LaraX
• Legacy/Legacy Bombshell
• Reborn/Waifus

Rocking A New “Do”

I am obsessed with all of the hair styles on SL! I confess it. So I belong to a lot of store/brand groups. Recently I was made aware that there were group gifts at WingsDG. Of course, I went to check it out. I found several gifts I had never acquired. Today I am wearing the Gift 004 -Famale (Female) – hair. Each gift has 2 – 3 sizes and a many have a number of texture huds.

The WingsDG group is free to join. Turn left after you enter the store and you’ll find them on a side wall. There are at least five gifts available.

Oh My – Face Paint & Skin

Head over to Glam Affair and join the free group. There are a number of free group gifts on the counter. These include skins, makeup, brows, and shapes. I’m wearing one tone of the Camila skin with the Koko Brows toner. Both are group gifts.

That’s it for me today. The weather changes every few days. It’s almost tropical today with a cold front coming on Monday. I do enjoy the climate control in Second Life!

Stay Chill,

Shut Up!

Yep, this is how I generally spend large holiday gatherings with family.  Outside on some porch, escaping the noise and shouting ‘SHUT UP’ to one or more relatives in my head.  I know lots of you do this too, because we’ve already had these discussions 😉 .  Today I’m just going to sit on this bench, drink my whiskey, smoke my cigarette, and be thankful for all my new gifts.

Choices

We have to make so many over the holidays, some are difficult, some are easy.  Let’s talk easy choices!  It’s an easy choice to join the [Hoorenbeek] group.  It’s free!  Plus, a few times a year they put out a really nice gift, sometimes it’s a complete outfit, and around the holidays I’ve noticed they love to do these holiday sweater inserts.  [Hoorenbeek] is a stylish store, and it’s where I’ve bought most of my suits.  The sweater insert is made to go under a blazer, jacket or bomber.  It comes with a full fatpack hud to change the sweater, shirt, shirt cuffs and buttons.  It comes rigged for:

• Jake
• Gianni
• Legacy

I added the newest free group gift from Deadwool into the mix too, my woolly baseball cap.  It comes in off-white and brown, and is resizeable.  We don’t get gifts all so often in this group so I try to blog them when we do!  Fortunately, if you’ve never joined the group, the previous gifts are left out and they are all so very special.  Deadwool is only 50L to join.

I did a poor job of showing you the newest gift from addon+ though.  They have a new hairbase out for both men and women, and the group is free to join.  Fortunately, Aline put the gift in Fab Finds, so I can show you a better picture of it HERE. 😉

Go forth and find your own joy!

 

Peace Out

Sparkle Through the Season

I was going to have a chill afternoon and work on my inventory, but I don’t want you all to miss out on things.  So here’s another post for you!

Under the Tree

I’m not 100% sure how long this gift will be available, so I wanted to make sure I let you know about it before it’s gone.  There is 500L of store credit under the tree at Kaithleen’s!  This is an annual tradition I look forward to, because Kaithleen makes some really beautiful items and has done so a for a long time.  The group is 199L to join, and with the 500L under the tree, I chose to buy the Liquid Seduction dress (sparklyyyy!) for just 289L, leaving me some credit left over to play around with.   The other fun thing about this dress is it comes with a strip function so you can… well you know.   Head over to Kaithleen’s today – don’t let this one get away!

Sizes

• Reborn
• Waifu
• Waifu Rolls
• LaraX
• PetiteX
• Nhumana
• Legacy
• Perky
• GenX Classic

Ok, now I’ll clear out my inventory madness…. right?

Maybe.

Treats for the Second Day of Christmas

The Christmas Season continues in SL, and though I was tutting at videos of people taking down their decor already (blasphemy in my books!), I know that today is just the second day of Christmas.  Yes, I do rant about this annually, but that’s my tradition.   There are still so many amazing gifts to pick up inworld, so let’s crack on!

Santa’s Gift Storm

The generosity continues, this time through Santa’s Gift Storm!  Several designers have banded together to offer free gifts until January 4th.  The groups are free to join, and some gifts are no group needed and free for everyone.  Today, I’m showing off two that have no group join required, and I think they’re absolutely beautiful (I broke out the Reborn Body I bought on Black Friday to try this out, so that’s why Aline is looking rather voluptuous today – it’s not just the Christmas cookies).  Here’s what I’m wearing:

• FREE dress by Loki in several colours sized for Juicy, Legacy, Perky, Reborn & Waifu
• FREE scarf by Le Fil Casse

While I was picking up the gifts, I took screen captures of everything and added it to the official notecard.  If you’d like a copy of this notecard, it’s by the counter in the Santa box at the FabFree info Hub.  Enjoy!

Hope you’re enjoying all the turtle doves…
