Just Breathe

The week before Christmas is always a bit hectic, wouldn’t you say?  I know I’ve been running around in RL trying to stay organised without losing my mind.  At moments like these, I need a bit of a calm space.  There are some lovely places in SL where you can collect yourself and remember to just breathe!

By the White River

White River Co.  have got some super lovely freebies in their group notices!  My lovely hair and antlers, as well as my cozy sweater are all tucked away in the notices section of the group profile.  I joined the group for free, and there they were all bundled up nicely for me!  The Sweater comes with a few different texture options (I went for the Christmas ornament look!) and is sized for Maitreya and Hourglass.  The hair comes with several solid and ombré hair colour options.  You can mix it up and will surely look cute whichever way you decide to wear it all!

Don’t forget to breathe, my pretties!

A Little Nonsense Now and Then

I know what you’re thinking.  Why is Aline standing in a bathroom that has a pile of pink fruit in it?  Well, you seem to think that I know what’s going around here, and that’s kinda cute.  The real question is, where did I get my super awesome outfit from?

A Little Vinyl

My gorgeous (and daringly cut) dress is a free group gift by Vinyl that I picked up over at Access.  There are a few gifts to grab there if you join their group for free.  I quite enjoy this dress by Vinyl that is all business in the front, but a massive party in the back! (ha!) It comes with an HUD to change to a myriad of colours to suit all your needs.  Cool!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Maitreya
• Physique
• Venus

I’m Feeling Pr!tty

The good people over at Pr!tty may have been quiet over the last little while, but they recently put out a new group gift that can be found in group notices.  Evvie is a long, windswept concoction in a gorgeous cotton candy shade of pink.  I love it!  Check for another little gift in notices as well!  The Pr!tty group is 200 Lindens to join at this time. (The links I’ve provided here will give you the group profile!)

What do you think? Is this fruit safe to eat?

‘Tis the Season

‘Tis the season to be jolly and festive and bright and all that good holiday … um… goodness! It’s also the season for the awesome Wash Winter Wonderland Cart Sale and the season for gifts!

Cart Sale Fa-La-La-La

I found the cutest set of sweater dresses at Luziefee Designs at the Cart Sale. And y’all know how much I love sweater dresses! This is the “Lumi” dress and it comes in five color combos each of which are only 10L on the Cart! Even if you bought one in each color… you’d still be saving tons. And don’t forget to grab the FREE gifty at Luziefee’s Cart too!

Sizes Included

• Maitreya
• SLink

La-La-La-La And Gifts!

Group Gifts that is! I’m also showing off the latest free Group Gift from Magika Hair. This is “Penelope” and isn’t it sweet? Magika never fails to give us such nice styles and generous Group gifts and ‘Penelope’ is no exception. This gift comes with a full fatpack of colors and it is compatible with the Group Only palette group members received a few months ago. Magika’s Group is only 150L to join, very reasonable considering how much members get.

Fab Free Designer of the Week 12/16/2018 – La Bella Boutique

Hello hello Fab Free’rs! As I mentioned in a previous Designer of the Week type post, we’ve been adding some new members to our Fabulous Designers team. This week I’m happy to share with you La Bella Boutique. Just as the name might suggest, this shop has girly-girl written all over it. La Bella Boutique is self described as an “everything shapes and couture store.” Which I feel is an accurate description. There does seem to be an eclectic mix of everything from casual tops and dresses to evening wear and even some tattoos. Most (if not all) clothing items did appear to be mesh, with of course applier tattoos. The store is also quite girlishly decorated for Christmas, it’s a virtual pink winter wonderland complete with a menagerie of fantasy and woodland creatures frolicking around a giant pink Christmas tree. To me this just adds to the shopping experience in a fun way. Along with all the fabulous finds, there are quite a few opportunities at La Bella Boutique to score some free goodies.

Like many shops this time of year, La Bella Boutique does have an Advent calendar. It is for the La Bella Boutique group only, however the group is free to join. I’m not positive if past gifts are available or not, but even so there are still quite a few days left on this 24 day Advent calendar. Speaking of group gifts, there are tons and tons and tons and oh my so many La Bella Boutique group gifts available. The top photo in the above collage shows the row after row of La Bella Boutique group gifts. Additionally, there are several group only Lucky Letter chairs. Finally, there are the store’s associated group gifts for members of other groups like Fabulously Free in SL. The Fab Free gift is of course free, and if you’re not already a Fab Free group member the group is free to join also. I hope you enjoy what is left of this Fabulous weekend. Happy Shopping! Also, before I forget, as you can see in the top photo, La Bella Boutique is looking for female bloggers. If you’ve got your own blog and are interested, there’s a blogotex inside the shop where you can fill out an application. Good luck!

Come Skate With Us!

Hello Fabulous Readers!  I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.  Ripley and I are popping in with a quick post to share a free gift you can pick up just for being members of the Fabulously Free in SL group.  It’s a super cute complete outfit that will have you all dressed up for one of my favorite winter time outdoor activities – ice skating.

‘Tis the Season…

…for gliding across frozen ponds, and for the whopping price of zero Linden dollars, Nuts Inc. will have you all suited up, skates included!  With a thick, cozy sweater, deep green leggings and sturdy skates, you will look fantastic out on the ice.  The top features snug cuffs to keep out the chill, a pretty laced detail on the neckline, and sparkles in the knitted texture.  The two toned pants hug your curves and are form fitting so they allow complete freedom to maneuver easily.  Lastly, the skates coordinate perfectly with the rest of the outfit with deep green leather, red lacing, and golden eyelets.  The gift package includes versions for classic as well as mesh avatars.  To pick up a copy of the Marrit Skate Outfit for yourself, simply teleport to the shop, activate your Fab Free group tag and tap the vendor.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Classic mesh in XXS, XS, S, M and L (includes separate alpha layers for sweater, pans and skates)
• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Lara
• Physique
• Venus

Until our next post, happy shopping!

The Search for Hot Chocolate

I’m just heading out into the woods to find a cute little place to get a hot chocolate.  I dunno, maybe it’s a skiing thing…I don’t really know how this whole “great outdoors” thing works.  Lucky for me, in SL it is completely normal to show up at a cabin in the woods to get a hot drink while wearing a rather skimpy little dress.  What, it’s plausible!

A Chill Wind

It may be chilly out, but I need to look absolutely adorable for all the upcoming festivities.  I found my sweet top and skirt combo (sized for Maitreya bodies) over at Adorsy.  You can wear the top and skirt separately, and there are lots of different colour options and combinations in the HUD, so you can totally make this outfit your own.  To grab this gift, join the Adorsy group for free, pay the vendor 1L (which it will return to you) and it’s all yours! (There are a bunch of other pretty gifts there too!).

Face Up to it

If you head over to Shiny Stuffs, you will be able to pick up my lovely makeup look for absolutely free!  I got my sparkly red lipstick (so festive!) and my snowflake-laden eyelashes just by paying the vendors in the middle of the room 0L.  These gifts come with appliers for Catwa, Lelutka and LAQ.

Hope you find a cozy spot to curl up, in SL or in RL!

Warm Up With Coco

Hey there Fabulouses!  Guess who has a new free group gift?

COCO Designs Does 🙂

You can find the Oversized Mohair Sweater in red by COCO at their store as a free group gift with a free group join.

I do need to point out that if you are used to going to the group gift area at COCO, you should know that they have run right out of room over there and have a second gift area now, which is where you’ll find this gift – and probably future gifts too.

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Freya & Isis

Kissmas Time is Here

The idea of the Mistletoe is one that I find rather appealing.  I mean, a plant that causes people to kiss if they pass underneath it?  How romantic (and utterly bizarre) is that?  You guys know me, if something is even slightly quirky I get a little bit overexcited about it.  I found a great (and nontypical) look for your holiday parties!

The Queen of all You’ve Seen

My sultry red bodysuit is a free group gift under the Christmas Tree over at Queenz!  I love the cutouts and velvety finish of it, as well as the added belly chain.  It’s different and festive all at the same time.  There are a couple of gifts under the tree at Queenz, so join their group for free and pick up all the delightful goodies!

Sizes

• Ebody Curvy
• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Katena
• Maitreya

Carry it with You

Mistletoe that follows me around?  I can’t say “YES” fast enough!  I got my super cute headband over at Gable.  I joined their group for free and now I’ve got people making pouty lips at me wherever I go!  I haven’t decided if this is a blessing or a curse yet, but I look super adorable so I’m going with blessing for now.  Head on over to Gable and grab yours!

Happy Kissmas!

Mix and Match

There are so many Advents and Hunts and Christmas Specials and Fairs going on all over the Grid… it’s hard to choose between them all. When I saw that Pink Cream Pie was having a special in store hunt, I was all over it! There are twenty pink stockings hung up all over the store with a whole wardrobe of Christmas themed goodies in them. Each stocking is just 25L and there’s no group needed.

Sitting pretty

I grabbed several of those little stockings but my favorite are these festive jeans embroidered with pretty poinsettias. The ‘Lacey’ jeans even have a cute little laced up pocket on the side for your cell phone.

Sizes Included

• Belleza
• Fitmesh XXS-L
• Maitreya
• SLink

Wrapped up

The next event I popped over to was the Ghee Christmas Market. I found this cozy cardigan for free in Ghee’s Lucky Dip barrel. There are a ton of great items to win and you can “dip” once every two hours. A little patience and a little luck and you can collect them all.

Sizes Included
