Space Age Spring Cleaning

Since I have to be socially distant and all that jazz, there was never a better time than this to start working on my space station. I’ve been neglecting the Jeffries tubes and power couplings for far too long, and a few cobwebs have even gotten into the hyperdrive. That just won’t do. Time to suit up and get this place in working order!

Oh, Look!

Over at the Look Event, you can pick up this awesome space themed outfit for free! All you have to do is join the Media-SL group for free, and then click on the vendor. Everything I’m wearing is included, the top, jacket, pants, boots, gloves and even those tools on the belt. This will make my space-tinkering much easier!

Sizes

Cyberpunk’d

Ever have that feeling where you’re not sure if you’re awake or dreaming?
-Neo, The Matrix

Hey Fab Free! Stuck at home and need something to do this weekend? The Twisted Cyberpunk hunt will keep you busy and I am showing off more prizes from the hunt. If you are a fan of all things sci-fi, this is the hunt for you!

Twisted

The Twisted hunt has a reputation of being the hardest hunt on the grid, and I would have to agree with that stereotype. Twisted virgin hunters beware! For a list of the locations and side hunts please visited the Twisted Merchant List. The hunt itself is running until Tuesday the 31st so you have all weekend to find the main hunt prizes and conquer those side hunts. The legendary “End Game” (a hunt to do after you reach the last stop) will be open until April 8th! There are 18 prizes to collect at End Game. If you need some help make sure you join the Twisted hunt group, which you can join by copying this join code into your SL chat: secondlife:///app/group/73770da7-7d71-a54e-6e86-60a3e9281e07/about

As always, all of the twisted hunt prizes, side hunts and end game prizes are free (0 L).

The Goods

I am showing off some of my favourite prizes that I’ve hunted so far. The outfit I am wearing- including the boots, top, skirt, and sleeves- are all prizes in the side hunt at QE Designs. Click the Twisted easels at each location for instructions on how to do the side hunts at each store!

I am also wearing this amazing collar from Neverwish. I just love it and it glows in the dark! This is their main hunt prize, but there are 6 additional collars to collect in total at Neverwish‘s side hunt in a variety of different colours. My hand cuffs also glow in the dark and are animated. These are one of the prizes at the first location of the hunt, Secrets of Gaia.

On top of this free group gift skin from Ritual, Lyari, I am wearing the Binary Matrix Tattoo in Turquoise from Fallen Gods, another Twisted prize. It looks like a barcode and if very sci-fi-esque!

Have fun this weekend doing the Cyberpunk Twisted hunt! Make sure you check out these past posts from Juli and Pru who blogged other prizes from the hunt too!

Happy Hunting,

xx

Wicked

Hello Faboulouses! I don’t know if any of you readers are familiar with the book and musical Wicked, but this post was based on it. The novel’s protagonist, called Elphaba, is based on the wicked witch from the Wizard of Oz. Now I look just like her- witchy green skin and all- except I’m in steampunk attire too! I’ll be showing off this green skin 75 L promo, some more freebies from the steam hunt and a free hair in this post. Buckle up; this is a long one!

More Steam Hunting

I finished the Steam Hunt IV, and this is an outfit I came up with using the goodies from the hunt! I am featuring the free hunt prizes from Razmataz, Prism Designs, Dragon Lady’s Closet, Adele Arts, Pixel Box, Destiny’s Designs, and Sweet Revolutions. The STEAM XV’s grid-wide hunt is free and going on until March 31st- so get out there hunting to get these cool finds!

First off- my outfit is the prize from Destiny’s Designs. The top is a system top I have applied using bakes on mesh (BOM), and the skirt comes in fitmesh and mesh standard sizes (S-XL) which will fit a variety of mesh avatars with some help from your alpha hud. The lantern I am holding is one of five prizes from Pixel Box on the hunt. I also used one of the “Steampunk poses” from Razmataz in this shot.

The gate in behind me is the prize from Sweet Revolutions– it can be rezzed anywhere and be used for landscaping or sim-building- how cool is that!

This dashing hat, which includes a top hat for men as well, is the prize from Dragon Lady’s Closet and you can find these chic boots from the prize box from Prism Designs. Underneath my skirt, I am wearing some lovely omega applier tights which are in the hunt gift from Adele Arts.

Estha & Osha

I stumbled across a promo at Ritual Skins right now, where you can get 2 skins for the low price of 75 Linden. I am currently wearing the BOM version of the skin, but it also comes with a number of head appliers, body appliers, ear appliers and omega if you haven’t switched over to BOM yet. The skin comes in 2 shades: Estha and Osha, and you can wear the skin with freckles, without freckles and with black or white brows. I am currently wearing Estha. The skin can be worn as part of a fantasy outfit and the duo even includes elf or faerie ears. The shade of both skins is green, and it’s really beautiful. It reminds me of the character Elphaba from the book and musical Wicked, which I love. This green skin duo will be 75L until Midnight SLT on Friday, March 27th. As far as I know, there will be a weekly promo at Ritual for this prize so keep an eye out- especially if you love fantasy skins.

Head Appliers Included

LAQ

Lelutka
Catwa
Omega

Body Appliers Included

Maitreya
Belleza
Slink
Tonic
Omega
V-Tech
AMD Bump

Ear Appliers Included

Green Locks

It isn’t easy being green, especially when you don’t have much hair to match your own skin in your inventory. Luckily Firelight! still has their free group gift out from March 2019 which is a beautiful long and green hairstyle for women. There’s a whole bunch of other gifts to grab while you’re there too! There’s even a brand new green hairstyle to match this skin!

Thanks for reading, Fab Free!

Irish Chaos

Who’s in the mood to start up the round of seasonal St Paddy’s Day celebrations and freebies? I know I am! With only 3 days left until this fun holiday, lets dig into the Irish-themed goodies! I have a free St Paddy’s day gift to share from Chaotic, as well as news about other gifts you can find at their store.

A Celtic Lass

Right now you can get a cute and free St. Paddy’s day outfit at Chaotic. It includes a green dress with gold celtic prints on it, and a leprechaun hat. It looks great! I have some Irish roots in my lineage, so I always enjoy finding these Irish-inspired outfits! To get this outfit, simply click the 0L vendor in the room that contains their new releases. There is a small picture of the outfit on the vendor, so it shouldn’t be hard to miss.

Sizes Included

Maitreya
Belleza (Venus, Isis & Freya)
Slink (Physique and Hourglass)
EVE (Slim & Pulpy)

{Chaotic} Gifts

Chaotic has a lot of other free gifts available through their group and through other free-themed groups. When you enter the store, there will be a large vendor which displays their monthly group gift, a lovely short dress that was featured on Fab Finds this month.

If you turn left into the next room from the entrance, you will also find a large wall with various free or almost-free groups such as the SLMB group or the Fitmesh Fanatics group. In case you aren’t sure which group each gift is set to, you can left-click the vendor and check the edit menu and look under group in the object description. Most of the gifts in this room were set to a free group, so I left Chaotic with a lot of new gifts updated for my mesh body! Most of these gifts are sized for: Maitreya, Belleza (Venus, Isis & Freya), Slink (Physique and Hourglass), and some also come in The Mesh Project (TMP), Tonic (Curvy & Fine) and EVE (Slim & Pulpy).

Do you wear Slink or a Classic AVI?

Only last note I will mention about some free gifts you can grab at Chaotic will be useful to those of you who wear Slink mesh bodies, slink feet, or classic avatars. In the room near the entrance where the monthly group gift is, there is a scrolling vendor with a massive sign that says “FREE” on it in capital letters. You can scroll through this and find tonnes of older gifts from the store. Most of these items are shoes and outfit for slink or clothes fitted for system avatars. To get these items, you will need to activate the Chaotic group tag. The Chaotic group is free to join, so you won’t break the bank on this one!

I hope you have fun at Chaotic, Fab Free!

Dragon or Angel?

Hello FabFree, happy Tuesday to you! Of course my Tuesday is happy ’cause it’s 25L Tuesday! Twenty five venders with great items priced at only 25L should make anyone happy. Now this little sale used to be geared totally towards role play and fantasy type clothes and items. But lately more and more ‘mundane’ things are up for grabs. So you don’t need to be into RP to love this sale.

RP is calling

I decided to indulge my fantasy RP leanings today with On a Lark’s gorgeous “Angelica Dress”. There are sixteen color available and each one has a HUD to change the color of the belt to one of those sixteen colors. Now some venders leave their 25L Tuesday up for several days but some take them down at the stroke of midnight. So if this sweet dress needs to be in your wardrobe don’t delay.

Sizes Included

Belleza – Freya, Isis, Venus
Maitreya
SLink – Hourglass, Physique

Dragon Queen

While I was at On a Lark… I saw they have a bunch of nifty Gacha machines. Y’all know I’m a sucker for a good gacha. As I perused I saw these cute medieval looking “Bliss” sandals and the awesome “Dragon” arm bracers and pauldrons. And each of the Gachas are only 50L per play! I just couldn’t resist being a dragon queen. Rawr!

Sandal Sizes

Classic (Unrigged)

Through Anything

No matter what, my guy and I can make it through anything. Through thick and through thin, through the crashing of planes, the exploding of bombs, a new world regime! Anything at all could happen, and we’d come out on top, and look awesome while doing so. Okay, I admit that was a bit dramatic, but thanks to Second Life we can live through our stories. Thanks to Contraption, DRD, and Birth, we can look the part too!

I do love it when Blue and I find unique, whimsical, and otherwise outside the ordinary items inexpensively or better yet for free in Second Life. Keep reading for info about each of these fantastic group gifts, and peep the full list of credits and links at the end. Then you can go on your own adventures.

Contraption

The foundation of my look for this post, and Blue’s, is this amazing jacket by Contraption. Not only is it highly detailed, it comes sized to fit both male and female avatars. It also includes a hud that allows you to change the metallic embellishments to gold or silver. This special edition version of the “Atreus Waistcoat” is free to all Le’Homme group members for the month of February. The Le’Homme Magazine group is free to join. You’ll find this cool gift waiting for you at Contraption behind the desk.

Sizes Included: Belleza Jake, Signature Gianni, Slink Physique Male, Slink Hourglass, Maitreya Lara (+Flat Chest Size), Belleza Freya

DRD

Death Row Designs aka DRD recently put out this cool as hell unisex cap as a free group gift. I love all the individual patches that add the detail of this hat. It comes in black, and navy blue. It’s able to be resized, and can be worn by male and female avatars. To get yours, you’ll need to join the free-to-join Death Row Designs group and click the gift vendor while wearing your group tag.

Birth

Finally, the detailed mandala-like design shaved into the back of Blue’s head just so happens to be a current Mens Stuff Hunt gift available at Birth. The Mens Stuff Hunt is a free hunt that runs until February 29th. This unique unisex hair base prize at Birth comes in 3 styles, each able to be tinted.

Appliers Included: Catwa, Omega

Hunt Hint – A particularly kinky blush.

Here are the credits, as promised!

Thunder and Silk

There are times I kind of forget I’m of elven deca ent. I love to dressup in sweet modern fashions and jeans and tees. But sometimes, something comes along to remind me of the Fey and I just have to get away from the modern world and gallop through sunlit forests with Fiain my unicorn friend. I came across that ‘something’ from Noble Creations at the Gacha Garden Event.

The Thunder

This is the Thunder Suit Gacha from Noble Creations and it’s just 75L per play. It does sneak just barely under our limit here for FabFree but I still wanted to show y’all because this is one sweet outfit. Each piece is expertly built and a pleasure to wear. The suit comes in Black or White with four Rares and twelve commons.

Sizes Available

Maitreya
SLink – Hourglass, Physique

And the silk

A little extra for our hair collectors… and aren’t we all?! Mina has set out a great new VIP Group gift for us. This Harper V2 and you can pick up the pack of blondes for free. The VIP group does cost a one time fee of 200L but , wow, is it worth it. There are tons of past gifts, the current gift plus you get a 10% discount on in-store purchases. I highly recommend it!
