It’s A Hard-Knock Life

Who else is still full from yesterday? I knew that second helping of mashed potatoes was a mistake. But this post is not about gluttony. No, it’s about free group gifts and free group joins!

Suck It Up

My tank top, which proclaims that I should, “suck it up, buttercup” is another of the free gifts over at The Black Friday Bazaar. I’m not sure what’s up with me and the cheeky sayings on shirts lately (not to mention cheeky post titles), but I like it. Yes, I told you about this fun event already and so did Aline, but I just couldn’t resist this tank. You can grab it for free until the event ends on November 29th.

Sizes:

• Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
• Ebody
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• Ocacin
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• TMP
• Tonic Curvy and Fine
• Fitmesh sizes XS-XL

Pie

No, I’m not talking about overeating again. I’m talking about the fabulous Pink Cream Pie. Right now the group is free to join and that is a very good thing. This store has so many great perks for group members – there is 100L of free store credit every month, a new free group gift every month, a whole bunch of lucky boards free for group members, and a zillion (that’s a rough estimate and not an actual literal zillion but like, a whole lot) free past group gifts to scoop up too. Yeah, it’s definitely a good time to join the group for free and reap the rewards for months to come. The Pink Cream Pie group is free to join effective today through Monday, November 28th and then it’ll be back to it’s normal price.

The pajama pants that I’m wearing today adorned with adorable little pies are one of the older free group gifts at Pink Cream Pie. They’re on the wall upstairs with the other past group gifts and come in sizes for Legacy and Maitreya.

mmmm pie, I wonder if there’s any pumpkin left?

Give Me Anything But Pumpkin Spice

Here’s a Sunday quickie to brighten your day. Do you remember Aline’s post about pumpkin spice?  I found an answer to her post at The Bold Llama while indulging in a bit of hunting, Evil Bunny Productions The Jerky Turkey 12 Hunt is currently running until November 30th, There are 48 stops on the hunt and the prizes are pretty cool. You’re searching for an orange feather. Pay $1L to get the item at each store. I had a lot of fun doing the hunt and I hope you do also.

Keep My Pumpkins & Spice Separate, Please

There are enough people in the world who love pumpkin spice so they don’t need me. I recently accidentally bought a bottle of pumpkin spice coffee creamer thinking it was it was peppermint mocha. Hey! the bottle looked the same. Should have worn my glasses & read the label. I know that it’s been a huge hit since someone decided to put it into coffee. Someone can have my share.

I got so excited when I saw this tee shirt was a hunt prize! It proclaims to the world that I am not in that number. The Bold Llama has the I Hate Pumpkin Spice tank top. Perfect! The texture is another awesome piece of graphic art. I have acquired quite a few tees created by Mikki McLain, over the years and I love them all. To me they let me show my thoughts & feelings. I always have fun wearing one of these.

Sizes

• Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus

That’s my quote for today! : D

Finding Fall




Yay! Friday is here! Autumn is falling upon us down here in the southern U.S. The gods of weather have decided to send some arctic winds  & cold swooping down upon us. I guess that means bikini  beach days are over. I am so happy I can keep beaching it in SL, I also found this group of goats. I wonder if they know yoga?

A Walk in the Orchard

After doing a bit of hunting I needed a break. I donned my warm comfy outfit and and headed out to find an apple orchard. Luckily Max Magic has this great casual ensemble you can pick up on the FabFree Fallen Leaves & Frost Hunt for a total of $10L ($5L each for top and jeans). There is a matching outfit for the guys also. Drag your man along with you.

The patchwork on the jeans makes me think of colder days. And the cropped hoodie is too cute with a texture of a cauldron and the words “Leaky Cauldron” on the front. There are huds for the top & jeans.

Beach Day! Yay!




Since I got less sleep instead of an extra hour I declared today a beach day! I landed at Kanaloa Surf Beach where you can stroll along a beautiful stretch of beach while enjoying the scenic vistas, go surfing or just hang out. I recommend a visit here if you need to hear the waves crashing. Luckily I found a perfect outfit to wear at one the FabFree Fallen Leaves & Frost Hunt stores.

I Was Enticed While Hunting

If you haven’t visited any of the stops on the FabFree Fallen Leaves & Frost Hunt you are seriously missing out on some great, inexpensive finds. Entice is participating in the hunt offering the girly-girl looking top and bloomers in the colors Frost & Winterberry. I’m showing the Winterberry set here. But wait – that’s not all you get. There is also the Entice Misty Nails with a 6 texture hud that will work with Maitreya, SLink, Belleza, GenX, Reborn, or omega. The nail textures match the two outfits. All of the pieces are priced at $5L each.

Sizes for Top & Bloomers

• Maitreya Lara & Petite
• Meshbody
• Legacy
• Slink Hourglass
• Belleza Freya

No excuses  get out & about. Get your hunt on today!

Feeling Cute

Hello! Today I will show you gifts from the FabFree Fallen Leaves and Frost Hunt and the latest round of Cosmopolitan. All of the recent events with gifts and great sales have been keeping me busy. I am always awed by the skills and generosity  of SL’s creators. I am always thankful for gifts. In the near (or far) future I need to engage in everyone’s favorite task in SL – making peace with my inventory. Wish me luck with that task!

Another Great FabFree Hunt

Glitterati by Sapphire and Stunner Originals are only two of he many stores participating in the FabFree Fallen Leaves and Frost Hunt.

Today I’m wearing a free outfit from Glitterati by Sapphire. It includes the top and shorts and is sized for:

• Classic sizes XXS – L
• Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus
• Maitreya
• SLink HG & Physique

Stunner Originals contribution is a sweet set of lipsticks. Sky comes with an applier HUD for Lelutka Exo X. There are 12 lovely shades to choose from. It’s priced at $5 so it’s a pretty awesome deal. If you own an Evo X head you definitely want to get it.

One of this month’s free group gifts at Cosmopolitan is the Sigma Key Earrings. There are 2 color options: gold or silver. You do have to join the free Cosmopolitan group. I know I’ll wear these often.

Hope today is the start of a great weekend for you. Sorry for the short post; my brain is on vacation : )

Telsiope Has Your Number

Feeling up to spookiness yet? You should because Halloween is knocking at the door. I’m not going to show you a costume today (yet). Instead I’m bringing you news from Telsiope Couture. As I have said in previous posts about this store is that I LOVE it. So let’s get talking about what you can find there.

Sexy Mama

I am feeling so sexy in this body-hugging provocative dress that fits like a sheer glove. It just makes you feel like you’re sending clouds of pheromones out into the world. Ooh-la-la! Yes, it’s sheer but have no fear, strategically placed solid swathes cover your bits. Included in the package is a texture change HUD with 20 options to choose from making the dress versatile. It’s like getting a fat pack without all the extra pieces.

Sizes included are Maitreya, Belleza, and Slink. When you tp into the shop go up the stairs to the third floor. Alessia is currently the gift in the Midnight Madness board – give it a slap. There is also a Scratch & Win board and a host of gifts for other groups like Fabfree. The prices are very reasonable so get shopping.

My second look from Telsiope Couture is the Amber Halloween Dress & Boots. It’s a dress that is not strictly for Halloween so you can wear it anytime. The included texture change HUD gives you three options in four colors. Your color choices are purple/lavender, black, red, and green. The texture choices are plain colors, small symbols (this is what I’m wearing) and last, one with large pentacles. You can really do a lot with the HUD. Amber is also sized for Belleza, Maitreya, & SLink. The boots are included in this black color. I got this for $50L. I always feel like I’m getting a nice bargain from Telsiope Couture.

Hair Today & Maybe More Tomorrow?

I have tons of hair but I cant resist buying new styles when they are on sale. I was beyond excited when I saw that No_Match had an offer out for the Happy Weekend Sale. I zoomed to the store and grabbed the No_Confusion red pack for only $60L. It’s really cute and you can change the color of the bow headband. There are many great hair designers around the grid but No_Match has remained my favorite for years.

One last note – I could not remember or find the pose used in picture #1. If anyone would like to apply to be my inventory organizer please send your resume to my Zanzibar.

Devil Got Your Tail??

I have a last minute Halloween costume quickie for ya! Telsiope Couture has a few $10L items out for sale. The devilishly deliciousness of the Dee De Vil outfit can save the day or night. I don’t mind being scantily clad on Halloween. It’s actually a tradition for me. If you don’t like to show skin I’m sure there is something else at the store that would suit you.

Back to the showing skin stuff. There is a LOT of skin showing here but that’s part of the appeal. Dee De Vil consists of the beautifully textured bodysuit, peep toe boots, horns, and an amazing tail. The tail has an animation HUD that makes it move in different ways. That explains the butt shot above. It’s totally cool to watch it flick around (You don’t have to watch my butt all night). I did add a pitchfork just because. What good is a “De Vil” without one??

Sizes

• Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• SLink  HG & Physique

Do you feel like being a bad girl? Want to make men fall at your feet? Then run over to Telsiope Couture and pick up Dee De Vil.

Happy Halloween!

Bad Azz Angel

Hola Fabbies! Only 2 more days till Halloween. October flew past us like a Category 5 hurricane. In real life I tend to get disgusted this time of the year when I walk into a store full of Christmas things. Can we take a break for Thanksgiving before the world gets full of glittering stars, angels on trees, bright peppermint sticks, etc,? Sorry, my brain shifted to random thoughts mode. It seems to be doing that more & more these days,

You Can Be an Angel Too

The lovely, Lucy Hope, owner and creator of Tiffany Designs graciously sets free gifts out at the store for any and everyone. You don’t need a group; teleport to the store and tap the gift board beside the entrance. Her latest gift is the Darkness Angel outfit I’m wearing. Everything you see in the picture is included so you don’t have to go out and find things to accessorize it.

Sizes

• Belleza GenX Classy & Curvy
• Maitreya & Petite
• Legacy, Perky, Nerido
• Kupra & Kups
• Reborn
• Erika

 

Isn’t this hair adorbs? It’s so very magical with a most appropriate name – Flutter by Moon . Butterflies hold small bunches of hair pulling it up and away from your head giving you an ethereal look. There are a number of options to purchase for the price of $75L. Of course I chose the reds pack.




I saw these shoes on sale recently but had never bought them. So when I saw they were on sale for only $30L it was like a sign from the heavens. Hey, I’m an angel :P. So I swooped on in to Patty C.K. and picked them up. The Skull shoes are so awesome! I love creations like these. The heel is a spinal column and the clear platform base showcases a skull. They are sized for Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Slink.

Go get spooky or ookie.

Here’s to a great Halloween!

It’s Only a Couple of Scratches

It was one of those Escape Rooms where you get locked in with people you don’t know and have to work together to escape. Seems that none of us who were booked for last night got the memo about leaving knives at home. As the evening turned to night it got  very dark. And oops, no one told us to bring flashlights.

In all that inky blackness things got a wee bit out of hand. Although I may be torn up a bit I’m fine. From the looks of it our team won! We all celebrated with a round of Bloody Marys!

A Spooky Take on a Classic

I like graphic clothing with witty sayings or artwork It’s a way of expressing yourself. A longtime SL fashion designer, Simone Udimo, is the creator/owner of  Java Fashion Design. I’ve been a subscriber at her store for years. She regularly offers free gifts for everyone and always has low prices. My dress today is one of several totally free gifts at the store. Upon entering look for 2 pumpkins in the lobby. They’re really easy to spot.

I’m wearing the Prissy Perks Midi dress that has been set out as a Halloween gift at Java Fashion Design. I think it’s hysterical with all of the wounds and the saying, “I’m fine”. As you can see it’s trimmed with a drippy, bloody border. It’s sized for Belleza (Freya, Isis, Venus), Legacy, Maitreya, & SLink Hourglass.

My heels are a free gift from [QE] at Shop & Hop. The Akila heels are definitely keepers.  The styling is perfect and of course there is a color/texture change hud with a choice of 15 colors. The heels fit Belleza, Maitreya, and SLink. There are only a few days to visit Shop & Hop; it ends on November 1st.

As I mentioned in a previous post Booty’s Beauty has new makeup on the MM boards every day. The La Luna eyeshadow comes in BOM layers for Lelutka EvoX. The awesome tattoo below my right eye was on sale at One 2K for $25L Tuesday. It looks like I have a stash of extra eyeballs inside my cheek! Unfortunately it has been set back to regular price. (Sorry about that readers).

Lastly I am wearing a set of Bento Square nails by Fatal Fashion you can pick up for free at Swank (the group is free to join). They fit SLink, Maitreya, Belleza Kupra, Legacy, & Tonic.

If you aren’t ready for Halloween it is time to get it together!! Now – run!

The Girl, the Girl, the Girl is on Fire!

“Looks like a girl, but she’s a flame
So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way”

Now that this song stuck in my head I have a few more gifts to share with you today! There are so many events with gifts and hunts around the grid this month. It’s always fun to put to an outfit together with the gifts from these happenings, So let’s get to the details, why don’t we.

Swank & Kustom9 & Shop & Hop! Weeeeee!!

When you head over to Swank and join the free group you can grab oodles of gifts. One of the gifts that really caught my eye once I unpacked it is the Agni outfit from Luxe Paris. The package contains an entire outfit as pictured above. It has a top, pants, sleeves, heels, tattoos and even hair! Ordinarily this hair style wouldn’t turn my head but it really completes the look. Lots of details went into this outfit. You get to show a little skin with the cute cat tattoos on the upper arms. I think it’s a super fun look. 

Sizes

• • Altamura
  • Belleza Freya
  • Legacy/Perky
  • Maitreya/Petite
  • Slink Hourglass
  • Tattoos are Regular/BOM with appliers for Maitreya & Omega

 

The cute cat earrings I’m wearing are a gift from Kustom9. The Pumkitty earrings are a free gift courtesy of Andore. My nails are covered in Luna Body Arts Jack! polish, yet another gift at Swank! The polish comes with appliers for Slink, Belleza, & Maitreya. Above is a better view of the hair included in the Agni package. Looks like my hair is on fire! Loving it! 

What are you waiting for?? Get out there and join the madness!
