Lucky Girl

Hello Fabulous Readers!  I have a quick post for you tonight featuring two free items that I think you’ll like.

Do Notte Feede The Kraken!

At the Graffitiwear store, I was determined to add the free Flowery Fun Top to my wardrobe.  The only problem?  I had to tangle with a pesky sea monster to get her.  Gus whined and tried to discourage me, but my mind was made up.  Time after time, I plunged in, only to be disappointed by a rotten apple or a smelly old fish.  Persistence paid off.  Most of the time, the Kraken wins, but sometimes Wren wins!  This flirty crop top features a dark background scattered with pink blossoms, ideal for welcoming in sun-drenched spring days.  Slender straps criss-cross at the neckline and add visual interest.  My favorite detail is the softly ruffled, cropped hemline.  I can almost see it stirring gently in the breeze.  The prize includes a HUD packed with 16 textures, so it’s like getting a whole collection of tops in one.  To pick up a free copy for yourself, you must be a member of the Graffitiwear group, which has a 25L$ join fee.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Maitreya
• Physique
• Tonic Curvy and Fine
• Venu

Hoop There it Is

My Lala Links Earrings from Shelly Designs add a striking touch to my outfit and bring the right amount of shimmer.   These baubles feature two intersecting circles suspended within a large hoop.  They are crafted from a metal with a soft golden sheen that catches the light beautifully.  They hang just below the jawline and sway gently with movement.  Best of all, they are a free gift for members of the Fabulously Free in SL group, which is free to join.  I’ve included a close-up below so you can see them better:

Together with a budget-friendly pair of capris and a hairstyle gift, these fab items will have you set for warm-weather adventures.  Until our next post, happy shopping!

There’s the Sunshine

I’m always game for a few more flowers in my life, especially when they’re sunflowers!

Like Clockwork

Pink Cream Pie never lets us down when it comes to group gifts!  Every first day of the month there’s a gift ready for group members, which is always so nice.  This month, the gift is these sunflower-covered leggings, which are great for bringing some sunshine in.  The group is 314L to join, but you get a gift each month, plus 100L of store credit which can be picked up at the front counter – AND don’t forget the lucky boards!

• Maitreya
• LaraX

Stop Off

I thought I’d mention too that I’m hanging out at the Stylecards magazine headquarters – head over here to pick up the latest issue for free, and have some fun reading articles about general SL interest items (like driving, DJing, mesh!) and a good smattering of fashion inspiration too.  I think I might go find a quiet spot to read the latest issue myself!

Out In The Cold

Hey Fabs!

Quick one for ya today, because everyone needs 69L fatpacks and I don’t know how long it’s going to last!

Helping hands

The owner of [erotiK] put out a notice that she’s going through a tough time and needs some help.  She set every single fatpack in her store down to 69L and you don’t even need to be in the group to shop it!  I picked up the Harlyn Outfit, because it’s still cold here, even in Florida, and it had these fun jeans (not made for the cold) but this giant puffy jacket and I couldn’t resist!  It comes sized for:

• Lara X
• Legacy
• Reborn/Waifu

Like I said, it’s EVERY fatpack, there could be items in different sizes, so take your time and read all the vendors.  Hurry though, I’m not sure how long she’s going have this sale going!

 

Peace

In a Sea of Daisies

Hello Fabulous Readers!  This beautiful field of daisies and wildflowers proved to be the perfect backdrop for my photo of a free sweater and a budget-friendly pair of trousers.  If you haven’t visited Le Monde Perdu since the season change, I highly recommend the trip.

Soft and Light

The Bibi sweater from MOoH! is a free gift for members of the Fabulously Free in SL group.  She features a mock turtleneck, a slightly ribbed, knitted texture, and a playful asymmetrical cut that leaves your right arm and shoulder bare.  Its cropped fit highlights your waist and allows your skin to soak in the springtime sunshine.  The designer includes a texture HUD with ten colors, making this free gift quite versatile.  To pick up a copy for yourself, activate your Fab Free group tag and tap the vendor.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Kupra
• Legacy and Legacy Perky
• Maitreya and Maitreya Petite
• Reborn

Tailored to Bloom

I opted for a monochromatic color scheme and completed the look with Dara Pants from VOOH.  These high-waisted white jeans hug your curves beautifully.  A wide waistband with double buttons, jetted pockets with angled flaps, and vertical stitching add subtle visual interest.   The folder includes pants for flat, mid, and high feet, as well as a texture HUD to customize the metallic buttons.  You can purchase these sleek trousers for just 50L$ on the Marketplace.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Belleza Freya, Isis and Venus
• Classic in XXS, XS, S, M, and L (includes alpha layer)
• Maitreya
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• Tonic Curvy and Fine
• TMP

Together, these pieces create an outfit that’s ideal for ushering in warm spring days in style without breaking the bank.  Until our next post, happy shopping!

Bunnies

Hey Fabs!  This group gift has been around a while, and I’ve been hanging on to it too.  I wasn’t sure whether to show it to you for Valentine’s Day or Easter, because it combines both holidays, but seeing how cold it’s been, and how fluffeh it is, I decided now is the time!

Fluffy buns

This outfit is called Prunes, it’s a megafatpack from Sinoux.  It contains a fatpack of gorgeous colors of both the fluffy sweater and the pants, and they can each be worn separately.  The fluffy sweater has a heart and bunny ears on the back, and the pants are split similarly at the bottom.  Absolutely adorable.  The Sinoux group is only 60L to join, and you can pick this megapack up for free once you join. What a deal! It comes sized for:

• Lara X
• Legacy
• Reborn

I failed to use this take out box of love in a post sooner, but I absolutely fell in love with this free gift from Schadenfreude at the Valentine Shop&Hop.  It comes as decor or with a hold and you can change all the colors of the hearts inside.  Don’t miss this one, you have until February 16th to pick it up.

P.S. Yes my feet are freezing. 😉

P.S.S. It’s bunny season at my house IRL.  I have a yard full of clover in the spring and there are so many bunbuns every morning and evening in my yard!  I love watching their little white buns scatter when I come outside!

Peace

Hello, Brooklyn

Okay, now I feel back to myself, I’m much more comfortable today than I was in suit and tie, but I can still be thrilled, because again my outfit was free.

Hop around town

This is another post where you have to hop to a few spots to pick up these items, but it’s not like you need gas money in SL. 😉  First stop, the Valentine’s Shop&Hop.

I am already a member of the FLAME group, but if you head to their shop at the Shop&Hop you’ll find a 300L gift card that isn’t in the store for you to pick up.  The group is free to join.  You can use that gift card in the mainstore, which I did, and I found this dope outfit to buy.  The Conrad coveralls are a full outfit, tank, pants and wrap, all in one piece.  If you use your gift card toward the fatpack you also get some accessories to wear on your waist (You can add money to your giftcard by wearing it and paying the top up on the front desk).  If you buy the single outfit it’s 269L which is covered by your gift card!  It comes sized for:

• Jake
• Legacy

I’ve found a lot of legacy sizes work on the Gianni X, so I’m wearing the legacy size here, and only had to alpha some spots on my legs.

Next I hopped over the the Shop&Hop store KUNI for the free 400L credit gift they have.  As Aline mentioned in her post here, you can use the credit at the Shop&Hop where the styles are already on discount.  I’ve found it covers 2 hairstyles and one styling hud, so I bought the full pack of this Bernando hairstyle.

Last, CIN put out this spectacular tattoo as a free group gift for February.  The group at CIN is 349L to join, but the group gifts are not sold, and all the art is original and limited.  You have to wear your tag, and take the elevator to the group gift room, and you can access all of last year’s monthly gifts and the 2 gifts so far for this year.  It is unisex, comes in multiple BOM layers (just arms or just chest etc) and a full tattoo in different transparencies.

 

Peace Out

Hit Me Baby, One More Time

Oh baby, baby.  How was I supposed to know?  That there were fun prizes to be had!

Y2K

Mmmkay, we’re heading back to the days of sparkly jeans and butterfly everything (which I am more than ok with, obviously).  I feel like I’m about to do a choreo to Britney Spears… which I am also.. more than ok with.   Annnnnyway – the XOXO hunt has just kicked off, and there are some great prizes to hunt for.  I went over to LAP to hunt for the hidden hearts, each will set you back just 25L.  I grabbed the top and earrings, but I was also pleased to find these matching jeans for free – just join the Hints and Hunts group and click on the gift box on the counter.  Yay for that!

Call Me, Maybe

Do I need more cake?  No.  Will I keep eating the cake?  Yes.  That’s my wisdom for today.

Love Bite

I’ve got three great gifts for you tonight, and so you may need to do a little TPing to get them all, but don’t worry, it will all be worth it in the end.  Let’s go!

Stop #1:  This top and cardigan combo is perfect for Luuuuurve season, and you can pick it up as a group gift at Analogic.   It comes sized for Legacy, LaraX, & Reborn and varying red and white combos for you.  The Analogic group is currently 249L to join.

Stop #2:  The jeans I’ve got on by Stories & Co. fit absolutely perfectly with the top, and they are completely free over at Shop & Hop!  They are sized for LaraX, PetiteX, Legacy & Reborn. No group join required to grab these cuties!

Stop #3:  Here come Navy & Copper, hitting it out of the park again with their 1L hairstyles!  This cute one comes in a limited black and white palette that you can get over at FaMESHed in their booth.   Just click on the sign that says “freebie pack”.  So cute.

There you have it.  That wasn’t so bad.

I’m off to eat cake.

I Don’t Have To Be Me (‘Til Monday)

Call this an L+B Swear appreciation post if you’d like, but they have dropped another gift at Seraplus for members of SL, and all the gifts they’ve given this year add up to an incredible full wardrobe, my jacket, pants and boots in this picture are all Seraplus gifts, and we’ve also gotten a T-shirt with overshirt and shorts!

Thank you

Many thanks to L+B Swear and Second Life for providing us these gifts this year.  They’ve done a great job taking care of the guys on the grid.  I decided to put together an outfit full of the newest free gift and the previous free gifts (and a previous purchase) so you can really appreciate their style and quality.

The newest Seraplus gift are these Holden cargo pants, and the details are incredible.  It’s a full fatpack and you can change the ties on the pockets, zippers, buttons, and the textures are fabulous.  They even come rigged for Gianni X (which I know some of you have been looking for!)  Sizes:

• Jake
• Legacy/Athletic
• Gianni/Gianni X

You can become a member of Second Life with a premium membership for as little as $4.99.  Take a look at all the premium membership rates and benefits HERE.

Once you’re a premium member, you just need to TP over to SeraSim and pick up your gifts, there are others waiting for you too.

Peace Out

Mimosas

Hey Fabs!  Quick one this morning, because the spreadsheeting never ends!  Look for it later today! 😉

Just a splash

I have a full free outfit for you guys today, and a free mimosa!  I know I’m drinking a brunch drink at sunset, but where I live, it’s an all day drink.

My outfit is this lovely satin tank, baggy pants with belt, and some gorgeous wrapped shoes I wasn’t able to capture in the photo.  It comes from MONOMANIA, and is a free gift for the Avangardista group, which is free to join!  It’s a perfect brunch all day type outfit, I think.  It comes in older sizes, I’m wearing the Maitreya size pants and the Slink Hourglass top in this photo and it works on my Lara X with some alpha.  Sizes:

• Belleza Freya
• Belleza Isis
• Belleza Venus
• Maitreya
• Slink Physique
• Slink Hourglass

Just find it on the gift wall and join the group for free, and come join me for all day brunch!

Of course, brunch isn’t brunch without a mimosa, even if brunch is at sunset.  I found this one for free over at Raibe.  It was on the front desk, and I bought it for 0L, no group needed.

After this spreadsheet, I’m going to need a few!
