Once Upon a Midnight Dreary

Hello Fabulouses!  Since Ripley and I found some fantastic hunt prizes lately, we decided to hit the trail once again.  This time, we set out along the Quoth the Raven Hunt path.  Over at Little 2 Large, we discovered this fabulous gown, and it only cost 1 little Linden dollar, plus a bit of searching time.  On the wall of the shop, you’ll find a hunt poster, which contains a helpful hint in case you get stuck.

With Many a Flirt and Flutter, In There Stepped a Stately Raven

The stately raven over at Little 2 Large actually brought *more* than just the gown in my picture.  In addition to a splendid frock, you’ll also receive male and female Dinkies outfits (Dinkies are these absolutely adorable mesh kitty avatars that you may have seen around the grid), a coordinating Nevermore men’s suit, and a petite Nevermore mini dress.  The additional prizes are no transfer, but if your man happens to come along with you on the hunt, for just 1 more Linden dollar, you can look all matchy-matchy.  As you can see from my picture, the gown starts out black at the bodice, but transitions into a soft gray texture, which reminded me of watercolors.  I really love the intricate black lace that adorns the sexy, full length slits in the skirt as well as the generous hemline.  The “sleeves” on the bodice resemble black feathers, and the package also included shoulder feathers that I opted not to wear.  For just a dollar, this fabulous hunt prize will have you all set up for formal fall parties, whether you have a classic or a mesh body avatar.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Fitmesh in XS, S, M, L, XL (includes alpha layer)
• Belleza
• Maitreya
• Slink Physique

Ripley has taken to growling at that beguiling Raven, for that bird (to quote from Poe himself):

“…never flitting, still is sitting, STILL is sitting…

just above my chamber door…”

I’d better see if I can help the pupster escape unharmed from “The Raven.”  Until next time, happy hunting!

Rose Red

Hello There Fab Free, I hope your weekend has been fabulous. This slinky red dress by Scandalize had me feeling darkly romantic. It’s the free group gift at the Vanity Event. I paired it with this cool 10 linden skull septum piercing by Venge that I picked up at The Mad Circus Gacha. Keep reading for more information about these two fabulous finds, or scroll down to the credits to the where and how much. ❤

The Dress – This sexy red dress is the free Vanity Event group gift by Scandalize. You’ll find it waiting just inside the entrance to the event. Just join the free-to-join Vanity Event group, and click the gift vendor. The dress comes in the solid matte color shown, and a red glittery version.

Sizes Included: Belleza (Freya, Isis), Slink Hourglass, Maitreya Lara

The Piercing – I think this septum piercing by Venge added just the right amount of sinister to Pru’s look. The little skull has red jeweled eyes, and a red gemstone fangs. My apologies, my photo doesn’t convey either of those details. This cool accessory is just 10 linden at The Mad Circus Gacha Fair.

Power of Three

Hello there Fabulouses!  Witchwood (Home to Petite Mort & Oubliette), is hosting it’s third annual Trick or Treat Halloween Hunt along with a massive 50% off sale!  I called on Pru and Aline to help me show off these witchtastic prizes last night 😉

About the hunt…

There are 6 hidden black cats hidden around the Witchwood sim that are 20L each.  All six prizes together will make up two complete outfits.  One being a witch costume, and the other a pirate costume (which still has a witchy sort of look to it!).  Aline is wearing the witch costume, and Pru the Pirate, with myself wearing a mixture of both pieces.  I suppose I am a pirate witch!

The Sacred in the Ordinary

I’m creeping around the woods again, and I promise I’m not doing too much witchery this Saturday evening.  I mean, only the regular every day kind of magic that involves bonfires in the night and the crunch of leaves underfoot.  It’s always important to find the sacred in the ordinary!

The Seasons Story

Fall is my favourite season – sparkling with golden hues and delicious wonders.  The Seasons Story agrees with me, because as I mentioned the other day, all the creators (who are actually celebrating the event’s anniversary) have placed a myriad of gifts out for one and all!  Just join their free group, and you’ll gain access to oh so many goodies.  Here’s what I’m showing you today!

• Destiny Dress by MasKara (Sized for Freya and Maitreya)
• Leaf Earrings by Pure Poison
• Leaf with heart cutout by Sari-Sari
• Lipstick by Amara Beauty (with appliers for Catwa & Lelutka)

Head over to The Seasons Story to pick up all your goodies – the event closes on October 31st!

Lovers in a Dangerous Space Time

Hello hello Fab Free’rs, and happy hump day! There are a few days left of the current round of Sanarae and if you haven’t been yet, you need to go! Each of the participating designers, save one or two, has out a free gift for Sanarae group members, and the Sanarae group is free to join. Yep, free, no join fees. I picked out several of the many gifts to share with you along with a gacha or two. So to keep this from being a super long post, I’ll get right to the info! Also, there have been a few other posts featuring Sanarae gifts which I’ll be sure to link below in case you missed them.

Kokoro – The Sanarae gift from Kokoro is this adorable headband with 2 of my favorite things, horns, and bat wings! The gift is free, unisex, and can be resized. Just wear your Sanarae group tag and click the gift box at the Kokoro booth.

Go&See – Not all tears are sad. These tint-able tears are the free Sanarae gift from Go&See. The gift comes in appliers only. There is an Omega applier, and a Catwa applier in the package.

S0NG – These dark lovely eyes are part of the free Sanarae group gift by S0NG. The eyes come in a mesh set, classic layer, and an applier for Catwa mesh eyes. Also included with the S0NG gift is a simple black eyeliner applier for Catwa heads.

AMITOMO – The AMITOMO gift is one of my favorites of the free Sanarae group gifts. These cute heart dangle earrings have the word “Love” scrawled across them. Seriously, they are adorable. The earrings have a hud that lets you choose from several colors for the text, and a few metal tones for the rest.

Also from AMITOMO is this cute harnessed shirt-dress. It is part of their LoveHolic gacha at the Sanarae event. The dress comes with a color/texture change hud for the harness straps and bits. The hud allows you to pick from various cute text. The leg strap Pru is wearing is also from the same gacha and gives you the choice of colors and textures to match the dress. The AMIMOTO LoveHolic gacha is just 69 linden per pull.

The Crows Know

Now that I’ve embraced the Halloween spirit, I keep finding new fun things to show y’all! I guess that’s a good problem to have!

This is the latest Group Gift from Chaotic : “Kane”. I love the sweet flirty skirt with all the bats fluttering around. I admit, I love bats in real life so I knew I was going to grab this dress right up. Chaotic’s group is free to join and you’ll find tons of great items in store.

My Little friends

I also found some new feathery friends. This is one of four poses in EniiPoses Halloween Special pack. The set comes with the crows and a tall candle (not shown here) all for 15 Lindens.  The special has been up for a bit and may come down any day. So if you want a great spooky pose and a few new friends hurry over.

25Linden Tuesday…

… is one of my favorite days just for the gorgeous items like this dress. This is ‘Carita’ from Eveline in the Box. I love the beautiful fabric and pattern. And, wow, it is so well made. The texture just pops! You will find Carita in four lovely colors each for 25 little Lindens. Don’t wait because like the fairy tale… it will disappear at the stroke of midnight.

Ride with the moon in the dead of night

I said I’d resist…  Everything is coming up Halloween and I tried to resist…. But… What the Heck, Right? Why fight it?  Especially when Star Sugar is gifting us with the cutest witch’s broom ever?

Up and Away

This is the ‘Pastel Witch’s Broom’ from Star Sugar and it’s the FREE gift for October. This cutee broom comes in five sweet colors including a black and white version if pastel doesn’t tickle your fancy. The ridable broom comes with a good AO for high flying fun.

Suitably Spooky

I’m also showing off one of Star Sugar’s past Group Gifts, the ‘Lacey Dress’. The Star Sugar group has a small 50L join fee but there are a TON of past gifts available… like this cute dress! Lacey comes with a HUD to change the main dress to one of six colors/patterns plus you can change the color of the laces on the arms. Super cute AND really well made. I didn’t have to fuss with the fit or my alpha layers at all.

Size Included

• One Size Fits All Mesh

Now I just need some flying monkeys……
