Over It

Finally the weather outside made me want to put on a jacket rather than lift my hair off the back of my neck. It has been an unusually cool day, even for September. Love and Aline may be clinging to summer, but I don’t mind telling you I’m over it. Give me crisp cool air, fall leaves, bonfires, and all the deliciousness that summer is just too hot for. I also love a good fall wardrobe which wouldn’t be complete without a good jacket. The jacket I’m wearing is part of a group gift newly available at Star Sugar. While picking up my new favorite jacket, I also found a handful of free gifts at Star Sugar, one of which was this cute start studded bag. Needless to say I couldn’t resist. For more about each of these fantastic finds, keep reading, or you can scroll to the credits.

Star Sugar

First, the initial thing that drew me to this jacket by Star Sugar were the little bats. I love them! That said, the jacket is a group gift at Star Sugar, along with a matching skirt which I did not wear. The Jacket comes in several pastel colors, all with black trim and little black bats around the bottom. The skirt and jacket are fit for Maitreya Lara only. The Star Sugar group has a join fee of 50 linden, and there are multiple group gifts available including this one recently blogged by Juli. Below is a copy of the vendor photo so you can see the cute buttoned skirt and the sweet pastel colors the jacket comes in.

As I mentioned, there are several free gifts that do not require a group tag at Star Sugar. The gift that caught my eye the most was this cool little star studded bag. This freebie has a hold pose that actually worked with my mixed priority AO. Additionally the free bag comes in the black version shown, as well as yellow, blue, green, pink, and white. Definitely pick this one up!

Oh The Places You’ll Go

Hello there, Fabulous Readers!  The pupster and I took off for the desert this past weekend and had a blast.  We dropped the old truck down into four wheel drive and made our own roads.  Of course, any trip out into treacherous terrain needs clothes suitable for the task, and it was the perfect opportunity to get my newest top broken in.  I picked it up free as a group gift.

Roam if You Want To

Over at the [ContraptioN] shop, I discovered the Roamer’s Top in Sundown set out as a free gift for members of the L’Homme Magazine Group.  With its black fading to red color scheme, long sleeves and high collar, this shirt is ideal for a day out roughing it.  The designer included great visual details such as the silvery design emblazoned on the sleeves, the realistic wrinkles in the fabric and the buckled strap that extends diagonally across the chest.  The folder contains versions for a variety of mesh body avatars.  This gift is the “Sundown” edition, which has just one color scheme.  A single texture HUD is included so that someone owning the full fatpack of the Roamer’s Top can use the HUD to mix the unique textures of this special edition with options found in their full collection.  Since the L’Homme Magazine Group has no join fee, you can add this rugged top to your collection for free!

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Geralt
• Gianni
• Jake
• Slink

Until my next post, happy shopping!

Konnichiwa

Konnichiwa Fab Free! I have to say I’ve been having so much fun with the Asian theme of the Medieval Fantasy Hunt. The prizes have given me lots of inspiration. I’m also enjoying the mix of traditional themes with modern style. For today’s post I’m wearing the female MFH prize at Mishmash Fusion. It’s a short modern dress with a bit of Japanese flair to the cut and fabric. There’s a male prize also, which you can check out in the vendor photo below. The MFH is a free hunt, so this pretty prize won’t cost anything. All you have to do is find it!

She Sells Sea Shells

The 1980s called me today and tried to take back these super rad holo shorts. I said no way and hung up, because as if. All silliness aside, these shorts and the cute shiny top I’m wearing are too awesome to miss out on. They are each one of the many prizes that are part of the Ricielli Summer Hunt. For this in-store hunt there are 2 choices to each prize, you can pick the “copy” version of the prize or the “transfer” version. Each prize is just 15 linden, and the hunt object is a sprinkled donut floatie. Really, this hunt is quite easy, the floaties aren’t really hidden so much as sitting out around the Ricielli store. I’ll add a copy of the prize guide for this hunt so you can see the other equally fabulous prizes.

The Top

The Livy top is prize number 17 on the Ricielli Summer Hunt. This cute crop top comes in the lavender shade shown, and a pretty pink floral. The following sizes are also included: Legacy, Maitreya Lara, Slink Hourglass, Belleza (Freya, Isis).

The Shorts

The Riley shorts in this gorgeous metallic holographic looking color are prize 15 on the Ricielli Summer Hunt. Like all the Ricielli Summer Hunt prizes, these shorts are just 15 linden. They come in the following sizes: Slink Hourglass, Maitreya Lara, Belleza (Isis, Freya).

• Hair – TRUTH VIP Tinsley
  Head – Catwa Koura

Just Breathe

Men’s wear has been somewhat… scarce of late. So I was rather pleased to find a really well made gift set out for the men of Second Life by Breath. There’s also a second jacket and shirt set out that is a mere 50L. I, in fact, helped myself to both generous offerings. You won’t even need a group tag for this one. Thanks, Breath.

There are four versions of the “BB Jacket” set outside on the wall of the Breath store. But at 0L, you can pick up all of them. Each one has a different sleeve design or color. Take a moment, while you’re there, to browse the store. I found the prices to be reasonable and the selection was great.

Sizes Included

• One size fits all

Just Like a Circus

All the eyes on me in the center of the ring

When I crack that whip, everybody goin’ trip
Just like a circus
Don’t stand there watching me, follow me

Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor
Just like a circus

Oh hey guys!  I found some great dollarbies on the Marketplace that have me feeling all sorts of ringleader-ish.  Of course, you can style these pieces in a different way than I did and make them all your own!  If you head over to the [sYs] marketplace store, you’ll find a loads of dollarbies and cheapies that will really help you pad your inventory.  I grabbed the Carmen coat for 1L as well as the somewhat salacious Birgit bodysuit for 1L as well!  It’s a whole lot of awesome without breaking the bank!  Oh and you can let your man know there are some finds for him there as well!

Tres Chic Me

What’s up Fab Free! I don’t know why I just said “What’s Up” like it’s 1997, but go let’s just go with it. I’m pretty sure Aline and I are on the same wave length lately. I stopped by the Anniversary round of Tres Chic also and picked up a few freebies that I’m excited to share. You can view her fabulous post here. For this post I’m sharing the free gifts from Ade, Sintiklia, and Elven Elder. You’ll notice most of the participating designers have a free gift waiting at their Tres Chic booth.

First up, this hairstyle is a free gift at Tres Chic by Ade. It comes with a cool ombre color hud, and a styling hud that lets you change up the style a little. To get this gift you will need to have the Tres Chic event group title active. That group is free to join.

Next, the pretty purple nude lipstick Pru is rocking is part of the Tres Chic gift lip applier set by Sinitiklia. This free gift comes in a Catwa applier only with 12 lipstick colors. Don’t for get to wear that Tres Chic group tag for this gift and all the others.

Finally, this colored denim jacket and bandeau top are the free Tres Chic gift from Elven Elder. The set comes in a few sizes. The jacket and top can also be worn separately. Just as with the other gifts, you will need the free-to-join Tres Chic group tag to get this free gift.

Denim Dreams

I know that jeans and denim jackets are more of a Fall look… but when I saw these boots and this jacket, I figured: what the heck? It’s ALL seasons on the Grid, right?

Booted

MY sweet boots first… These are the Agate boots from Belle Epoque and they are the free gift at the We Love Role Play event. I’m always thrilled to find a free gift from Belle Epoque, I know that it’s going to be awesome. And these boots do not disappoint.

Denim Dreams

I was cruising around the Marketplace looking for goodies when I stumbled onto this awesome little jacket from Majestic. For only one Linden, I was skeptical as to it’s quality. But it’s really well built and well textured. It’s a great basic for the old wardrobe for just one Linden. There are several dollarbies  in the Majestic store as well as this jacket. Give ’em a try!

Sizes Included

• Classic Sizes XXS-L
