Why Not?!

My tank top asks “why?” but I like to ask “why not?.” For example, why not indulge in this delicious looking frozen orange confection by Andika, or the cute casual tank top by The Bold Lama? I can’t think of a single reason, especially when you consider the frozen orange is a free group gift at Andika, and the top is a dollarbie hunt prize at The Bold Lama. Keep reading for details about both of these fab finds.

Andika

I’m such a foodie sometimes, and SL food is no exception. I think these frozen oranges by Andika are not only very pretty to look at, they seem like they’d be fun to eat. haha The orange on the plate acts as a dispenser for a held version and the matching animated spoon. This free group gift at Andika comes in 3 color variations. Right now the Andika group is free to join. Also, there is at least one other free group gift currently available.

The Bold Lama

It is not lost on me that the Curiosity Hunt prize at The Bold Lama asks the question “why?.” The Curiosity Hunt is a dollarbie hunt that runs from now until the end of the month. This 1 linden hunt prize at The Bold Lama comes in the following sizes: Ocasin, TMP, Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Slink (Hourglass, Physique), EBody, Maitreya Lara, Tonic (Curvy, Fine), Standard Mesh (xs – XL) + Alpha Layer.

Hunt Hint: Books aren’t the only way to satisfy curiosity. 

What I’m Wearing:

• Hair – Lamb – Vex
  Head – Catwa Koura
  Skin – The Skinnery – Bria
  Eyes – Buzzeri – Celestial Eyes – Honey
  Top – The Bold Lama – Curiosity Hunt Tee – 1L Curiosity Hunt Prize

Good morning Fabulouses!  Today in my blog post, I am featuring a couple of 1L Marketplace finds that make for perfect summer staples!  We still have August left, don’t be pulling out your fall boots yet!

Not so basic, basic

Every girl needs a basic cropped black tank top in their inventory!  It goes with so many things, and you can’t go wrong for 1L in the TUSSAY marketplace store ;).  It’s well made with no cutting on my avatar with movement, so that’s a bonus!

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Isis, Freya & Venus
• TMP

Open Denim Shorts

I bet you can’t believe these open denim shorts are just 1L, but they are!  These are the Angel Pink Vida Jean Shorts and you can find them priced at 1L in their Marketplace store. I have added a string bikini bottom under the shorts, but you don’t have to if you don’t want to – I just wanted to show that you can easily add it if you want!

Sizes Included:

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

We, The North

HAPPY CANADA DAY FAB FREE!

It’s the time of the year when I give thanks for all things maple syrup!  Up here in the North, we’re celebrating with barbecues, face paint, fireworks and hot Prime Ministers!  Up here in the True North, Strong and Free we like our beer, our nature and all sorts of cool stuff like poutine, ketchup chips and toques!  You guys do realize that this is the one day of the year I throw as many Canadian stereotypes at you as I possibly can, so hunker down on your chesterfields and grab your nanaimo bars, cuz we’re about to do it up Canuck-style!

Just Give’r

I trawled through Marketplace for just the right outfit to celebrate this most auspicious of days, and came up with a really cute jumpsuit by [sYs].  Their marketplace store is chock full of great dollarbies, and this one I’ve got on is no exception.  I topped off my look with the “Oh Canada” headband by Sugarplum Boutique which only cost 10L.  Isn’t it the cutest?  Perfect for singing O Canada and waving flags emphatically while grinning at my pet moose.  Speaking of flags, I grabbed this little animated Canadian flag by Persephone’s Grove for only 15L on marketplace as well, rounding out a nice lot of dollarbies and cheapies for my long weekend!

Jumpsuit Sizes

• Freya
• Isis
• Venus
• Maitreya
• Slink

From up here in the wilds of Canada, I wish you all the best for this Canada Day!  Sending you loads of Beavertails and Butter Tarts!

Roller Girl

Come skate with me Fab Free! It’s always sunny in Second Life, so why not take advantage of the never-ending sunshine and cruise around the boardwalk while listening to some tunes. This cute roller girl look is made up almost entirely of free or inexpensive items, including the free-for-everyone bikini gift at Glitzz.

The month of June may be close to an end, but Pride is always. Needless to say I was excited to find this cute rainbow bikini for free at Glitzz, no group needed. It comes in a handful of sizes and includes a hud to change the metal bits that are part of the ties. To get your copy of this free gift, head over to Glitzz and find the gift vendor near the back of the store.

The blue striped knee socks are a dollarbie Marketplace find by a store called *1* Tsutsujiya Overknee World. They come in a classic system layer, an Omega applier, and a Maitreya applier.

Finally, these cute skates are another Marketplace find. I’d tell you the store name, but there doesn’t appear to be one. One quick side note, I think it’s worth mentioning that the creator’s profile is now completely blank. That said, these skates are just 49 linden on the Marketplace. Also, there are a few other versions for the same price. These skates come with resize scripts and have a skate AO that takes over when you walk or run. I did have to turn my regular AO off to have the skate animation work properly.

I hope you have as much fun with this Roller Girl look as I did!

Let’s Spill Some Tea

Hello again Fab Free’rs. Thanks as always for being here. I’m here to spill a little tea! okay maybe not “spill tea” exactly, but I am going to serve some tea in reference to how you can get this super sexy bikini and the teapot purse by Fika, along with the bright beautiful Pride tattoo by WitchCraft for next to nothing.

The purse and bikini are part of a group gift Pride package by Fika. I really couldn’t like this adorable bag more, and if it wasn’t cute enough on its own, it comes with 3 bento hold poses. The bikini is every bit as tiny as it looks, but I’m not at all sad about it. I do want to point out that the bikini bottom is very well defined. You’ll see what I mean when you pick it up for yourself and wear it the first time. It comes in several sizes, there is a heart graphic on the front of the bikini bottom that says “Love is Love.” Also, there’s a cute heart shaped cut out in the back. Lastly this Pride Package at Fika also includes a set of bento Pride inspired nails which are not shown. To get your copy of this generous Pride gift you’ll need to join the Fika in-world group which has a one time join fee of 30 linden. Don’t forget to pick up the one or two other group gifts available while you there!

Bikini Sizes Included: Slink Hourglass, Belleza (Freya, Isis), eBody Curvy

Manicure Sizes Included: Slink (M,F), Belleza

Next up, the rainbow barcode Pride tattoo is a dollarbie Omega applier tattoo by WitchCraft available to everyone. This tattoo is meant to be unisex so for just 1 linden anyone with an Omega applier compatible body can wear this colorful tattoo and show their Pride. You’ll find it waiting to be picked up at the WitchCraft shop on the wall with the new releases.

Here are the details:

Hair – Magika Group Gift – Please *Originally Shown Here

Hey there Fabulouses!  Just a heads up (pun intented) on an almost free mesh bento head!  I didn’t try it out as I’m not in the Akeruka group so the photo included here is the vendor ad by the store, but for anyone thinking about a mesh head…  for 1L + the 150L inworld group join fee, this is a steal.  It’s quite pretty too!!  ENJOY!!

Electric Zoom

Welcome back to the blog Fab Free’rs! I had a little time for a quick post and I wanted to share this lovely lace set with you. It’s a Marketplace dollarbie by Zoom. I don’t shop on the Marketplace, nearly as often as I do in-world, but when I do this exactly the type of find I enjoy most. It’s a brand I’m familiar with and doesn’t require me to wear a tag or join a group. Not to mention it really is just 1 linden. The set comes in the black version shown, and an equally pretty white version.

Sizes Included: TMP, Maitreya Lara, Slink (Physique, Hourglass)

Also, if you’re in the market for some new tattoos or facial hair, Mister Razzor has been having a huge sale, and there’s one day left. The sign says the sale is on until Saturday. I’m not sure how much time that really leaves, but if you hurry you can score Omega applier tattoos like the one Pru is showing for just 60 linden each. There are male and female tattoos, so there’s bound to be something for everyone. I’ll cross my fingers that this awesome sale will last through the entire day Saturday.

Here are the details:

Hair – RunAway – [RA] Britney TSS Hair – Ombres
Head – Catwa Koura
Skin – Essences – Vanya
Makeup – ~Shiny Stuffs~ CATWA Mei Applier set
Jewelry – ^^Swallow^^ Indira Face Jewellery 0.1
Outfit – zOOm – Silentia Top and Skirt – 1L on the Marketplace
