Who me? But I’m soooooo adorable, I can’t possibly be on the naughty list. That’s how it works, right?
Cynful, Indeed.
This dress is just…. mwah! So perfect. It sparkles, it shines, it’s in all sorts of festive colours. I can’t deal with how pretty it is. Grab it yourself as a group gift at Cynful. The group is just 1L to join, so go go go go go now. Because, ugh. The best dress. Sorry, I’m speaking in squeals and grunts, but… omg.
One of my favorite events during the holiday season is the pile of gifts at Cosmopolitan. You will have to join the free Cosmopolitan Club & Lounge group. (Copy & type into local chat to join: secondlife:///app/group/7382cf06-a663-d569-9683-5c3f0edd968f/about). There are a goodly amount of free gifts under the tree you can pick up while wearing the group tag. The current round ends on December 20th but the gifts will be around until the new year. And a new round begins on the 21st. I have no info about new gifts being added so just drop by the event and check. And remember that a lot of the items at the event are usually discounted.
A Mid-Winter Night’s Dream Dress
I oohed and ahhed when I unpacked this Cosmopolitan gift. It’s the Geraldin dress by Seniha and it is a beauty! With it’s pastel pink color and little sparkles scattered around it’s perfect for fancy holiday parties. My favorite feature is the very large bow that hangs from the waist on the back of the dress. And it can be yours for free! Just wear your tag, click on the gifts under the tree, and it’s yours.

I am wearing make-up I’ve found at different places. First up is my beautiful lipstick shade. This is a marketplace dollarbie by Esyka’s Creations. The Lipsense LeL EvoX/Akeruka ADVX-gift can be found on the SL Marketplace and it will only set you back $1L. There are appliers for Lelutka EVOX & Akeruka ADVX each containing two lipstick shades.
I am also wearing eyeshadow (it’s hard to see). The Lilibel Beauty‘s advent calendar is giving out free gifts each day. My shadow today is from Day 5 of the calendar. It comes as BOM layers in four colors for Lel Evox heads. Note: Past gifts are for sale at a price of $10L.
Ho, Ho, Ho!

There’s a lot to be said for Santa’s elves, and they never get enough credit. Most of the songs are about Santa, even his reindeer, but they rarely mention his elves. Thankfully I’ve got some free gifts to celebrate the elves, and I found a song that’s all about them too!
3 Cheers for advents!
You guys know by now that I’m a total fan girl of Yasum. Her designs are sexy and sassy, fit like a glove, and she uses the prettiest textures. Yasum does an advent every year, and it’s completely free, you don’t need a group or anything. The best part is that you can get past gifts, so you don’t have to worry about missing a day.
Azlyn likes to make cute decor too, so in the front of the calendar, you’ll find unisex hats and different wearables, along with some nice decor (the cat chair!). On Day 15 though, I got a message that today’s gift is just for the ladies, and I ran! I came home with a perfect LBD (little black dress) for the holidays. You’ll get a texture hud for the metals too. It comes rigged for:
Lara X/Petite X
Legacy/Perky
Reborn/Waifu
In Day 13 is this Elfs Pride hat, which was perfect with the dress. You can stop into Yasum at any time before Christmas to pick up these free gifts.
Peace

I have a whole free and fun Christmas Hunt for you today, put on by all the stores on the Black Orchid region, which includes Black Lotus, Foi, SOJOUR, Martyr and more! You simply need to teleport to the region and purchase the hud for 0L. The hud will track your progress (although I’m sure I found everything and the hud wasn’t completely filled in) and it will also give you hints.
You can see on the sign, each store has a 2D Christmas image that they’ve hidden around the region, there are 2 SIMs to look on, and they’re not always so easy to see (2D!). I know you guys are clever though, and you’ll figure out how to find everything you want. I found ‘most’ of my items in the courtyard or outside of the stores although not quite all of them. Let’s talk about what I brought home for free!
Free Dress by Black Lotus (rigged for Lara X, Legacy/Perky/Bombshell, Reborn/Juicy/Waifu)
Free Stockings by SOJOUR ( rigged for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn in flat, mid and high for all sizes)
Free Shoes by SOJOUR (rigged for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn)
Free Jewelry by FOI (fluffy necklace and earrings)
Free Makeup by Martyr (BOM for EvoX)
This hunt did take me a little bit of time, it’s a fair amount of ground to cover while looking for 2D images, but it did get easier as I went along. Plus, these prizes are so worth the time! I didn’t see an end date to the hunt, so I’m going to guess it will last through Christmas.
Peace

GIVE ME ALL THE FUZZY THINGS! That’s all I have to say.
Nocturne
The Christmas Tree at Nocturne Noel is absolutely surrounded and engulfed with gift boxes. The gifts are freefor everyone to grab, with no group join required. I walked a large circle around the tree, clicking on each box, which took a bit of time… but was totally worth it. Here is what I picked up:
Freetop and skirt by MicRo sized for Legacy, Reborn, Waifu & Perky
Freepurse by Monstarous
Freeearrings by Luova rigged for Genus Morph, Lelutka & Unrigged
Freeflower crown by Faunus
This round of Nocturne Noel is running until January 13th!
Now, that was an easy post!

Hello there, Fabulous Readers! Gus and I have been busy in RL with holiday tasks, but we just had to pop in quickly and share this free, gorgeous sweater dress with you.
Isn’t She Lovely?
I absolutely love the color red, and the Holly Sweater Dress from Park Place Casuals doesn’t disappoint. She features a vibrant knitted fabric, sassy shoulder cut-outs, and a turtleneck collar. Long sleeves and a hem that falls to mid-thigh keep you warm on chilly days. The lightly textured fabric skims your body to create a flattering silhouette. This frock is perfect for a cold-weather stroll or a holiday get-together. Best of all, the Holly Dress is a free prize in the Peace on Earth Hunt. All you need to do to pick up your own copy is to locate the globe hidden in the store and click the hunt object. No group is required! The hunt runs through December 31st, so you still have plenty of time.

I have a couple of reasons for using this song as my post title today. First, I’m wearing this gorgeous plaid, and I linked the video of KT Tunstall, who is a Scottish musician, over on the FLICKR post. This song has special meaning in my heart too. And THEN, when you go to SWANK it feels like you walked 2000 miles to get all those free gifts!
Tartan tart!
I am Scottish by heritage IRL, and I’m automatically attracted to anything in a tartan or plaid. I don’t know which this is, I only know it’s not MY tartan, but I think it’s beautiful! This is a complete outfit from V8 Underground, and it’s a free gift at SWANK. It comes with a lot of pieces – the dress, boots, hat and moose! It comes rigged for:
Lara X/ Maitreya
Legacy
Reborn
I also added my Xmas nails from Fatal Fashion, another free gift at SWANK, and the exact color palette of the dress. They are needle nails and they come rigged for:
Belleza
Kupra
Legacy
Maitreya
Slink
Tonic
Nails are always so difficult to show, so I’ll put a picture below. SWANK is open until December 31st and the group is free to join, but just be aware, it will take you a while!
