Freebies & Cheapies Oh My!

I love the Bayou country of Louisiana; it’s where I was raised. So peaceful and a slower pace of life. Most of Bayou country is in the migratory path of numerous species of birds. Our egrets, like those in the picture, live there year round.

Another great gift from Nilsy!

Most every weekend Nilsy puts out a free dress or outfit. You can subscribe to get notecards with all the deals. Or you can join the store group for free!

This weekend’s gift, Leopard Print top & jeans, is a cozy fall outfit with a cropped sweater and very comfy jeans. You just can’t go wrong with this winning combo. Sizes included:

• Maitreya

The Hair!

I picked up this gorgeous hair from Fabia for only $50L. It’s one of the many items offered for the #Energy Weekend. Named Joan, you can choose from several color huds and the package also has a styling hud. Of course, I chose red : )

Last, but certainly not least I found a plethora of fall decor items at La Galleria. Each season Pamela Galli, owner/creator, sets out free items. One caveat, you must have payment info on file.

Happy Weekend!

How Now Spotted Cow!

When I was a child I played in the shade of a large tree. On the other side of the fence was a pasture with several cows. They loved to hang out in the shade too.

Simpler Times

Now that I have managed to survive the destruction wrought by Hurricane Ida (btw, it’s my name in RL), I wanted to get back to simpler times. Unfortunately, the reality of simpler times went all the way back  to the pre-electricity era! God bless the thousands of linemen and power company workers trying to put our grid back together!

A White Orchid on the Beach

Happy Sunday ya’ll! I’m ready for beaching it on a perfectly gorgeous day. What is it about the beach and the sea that calls to me?? Many have pondered this over the centuries. For me it’s about hearing the waves, watching the tides, and feeling a sense of renewal. Ahh, the beach …

The History of Not Wearing White After Labor Day

It’s not Labor Day yet in the USA but it’ getting close so make sure to wear all your white things now! I dug into the history of this fashion rule. You CAN wear white after Labor Day!! YAY!!

“In the late 19th century – long before you could wear jeans to a Michelin-starred restaurant – the society ladies were engaged in an invisible battle with the nouveau riche, one that could only be won by the subtle manipulation of fashion. The “you can’t wear white after Labor Day,” rule was created to separate the old money elitists from the new money group.” – Article by Chelsea Peng, Assistant Editor of Marie Claire.

Here Kitty, Kitty – Meow

I confess to being a cat lover. I grew up with many cats around and have a silly kitty these days. Like Aline, I am a lover of anything cat. My blanket covered kitty, Romper, (he wanted to keep napping) has to nap with me.

Meow, Meow

When I saw Nerido‘s offer for The Saturday Sale I had to scramble over to scoop it up! The Meow Overall is on sale for $75/color; there are a number of colors to choose from. For me, it’s usually pink. These overalls have a kitty face print on the bib, white paw prints on the right leg, and straps/belt with the word Meow & hearts. Great way to show kitty love!

Sizes

• Maitreya
• Legacy

Today’s hairstyle, Vita, is a gacha prize at Fabia. The gachas are set at $25/pull. Get em while they’re hot; it’s a great way to stock up on hair.

Feeling meowy today I also added these cute kitty ears headband I picked up as a gift from [t2p] a couple of weeks ago. It is sold in the store for $99 L – just in case you’re in the mood for more cat!

Going to take a cat nap…

La Fiesta

Hola amigos y amigas! A bit of wanderlust set in yesterday. I wanted to visit someplace different from my usual haunts and found a gem. El Pueblo is a wonderful place to visit with all kinds of things to do & see. The bright colors and beautiful landscaping were just what I needed.

A Bright Dress for a Festive Place

One of the benefits of being in free groups with gifts from tons of designers is all of the awesome items you get to try for free. The colorful dress I’m stylin’ today is a free gift for the free SLF&O group from Poème. It’s sexy without being too revealing & bright enough to get you noticed.

Sizes

• Hourglass
• Physique
• Maitreya
• TMP

All of my life I’ve heard that blondes have more fun. Today my free hair is Dylan by Elikatira from the FLF Backyard Birthday Bash, previously shown by Aline here. I haven’t decided if that blonde thing is true yet; being a redhead is a lot of fun!

Get out & explore the wonders of SL. You might even meet a few friendly little dead people who know how to party.

xoxoxo,

OMG! OMG!! Cuteness Overload

I’m Back!! I’ve got the goodies to show you today! There have been numerous events with gifts; unpacking & sorting ALL of it will have to wait.

Do you know about Nilsy?

A few years ago I was introduced to the Nilsy Store. If you’re into lacey, frilly, pretty textures this is the place for you. Nils, owner & designer, offers clothing that can take you from beach time to clubbing.

My outfit today is a free gift at the store. The store group is free to join; there is also a subscriber that won’t take up a group. Either way you’ll get all the news about new items and free gifts. There are 3 lucky chairs and a MM board to the right of the entrance; no group is needed for these. I picked up 3 other outfits from the Lucky Chairs.

The Tied Bikini Top & Mini skirt is entirely free and can be found at the back of the store behind the stairs. I love the embroidery details on the top!

Sizes included:

• Maitreya
• Belleza
• SLink HG & Phy
• Tonic Curvy & Fine
• Classic Body

The rest of the Stuff

This playful hairdo is a free gift by bonbon I picked up at the FLF Backyard Birthday Bash.  The Junko hair comes in a single color – Pink Ombre and it’s so stinking cute!

My cute little shoes come courtesy of Phedora! Another free FLF Backyard Birthday Bash gift, the Shelbie heels comes with a 20 color Fatpack HUD!! What a great gift! The shoes are fitted for Maitreya, Kupra, Belleza, Legacy. & Slink.

There is still plenty of time left to stuff your inventory.

TTFN…

It’s Been a Fabulous Friday!

Happy Friday peeps!! Friday means big sales & lots of goodies. It’s also the start of the weekend and time to partay! I found some great stuff for looking fab and sexy.

Fifty Lindens!

Cynful‘s offer for FLF is the Play Time Romper. It comes with a HUD with 4 ombre shades. It’s sexy & certainly playful. You’ll feel like a million dollars in this.

Sizes

• Maitreya regular & petite
• Legacy
• Belleza
• Kupra

My darling shoes are the Totem Wedges for the FLF sale @ Astralia. A color change HUD is included. It lets you change all the different components of the shoes like pompoms, bands, laces, etc. You’ll get a lot of use out of these.

Of course I needed hair!! I always need more hair. Maybe I like SL hair better because I can’t do a thing with my RL hair. I scoured the sales galleries and gacha sales to find something. I noticed that Rama Salon had $25L gacha sales. My first pull got me this long & sexy blonde style, Grace. I love it when things come together!

Get out & shop ladies!!
