Irish(ish)

Irish (ish)

The slogan “Irish(ish)” seen on my top today speaks to me. I have Northern Irish heritage, but I have never really been to Ireland and I don’t always identify with Irish culture. As my family was originally from Northern Ireland, they often act British and do a lot of British things like drink tea and eat Hob Nobs. I guess I am Irish(ish)! Anywho, I have some fun and affordable Irish-themed tees to share today, as well as free lipstick and skin, so let’s look at what I found!

St. Patty’s Tee’s

The Bold Llama is offering two great t-shirts for the FabFree St. Patty’s Day Hunt.

  • On the left, I am wearing “The Irish-ish Tee”, which costs 5L on the hunt. The hint to find it is, “lucky rainbows, lucky clovers & lucky letters!”
  • On the right, I am wearing “The Clover Tee”. It is only 3 L on our hunt. Here is the hint to help you search for it, “llamas love everyone – particularly group members!”

Sizes Included (Tees)

  • Freya
  • Isis
  • Venus
  • Legacy
  • Lara
  • Tonic Curvy & Fine
  • Ocacin
  • Ebody
  • Slink Hourglass & Physique
  • TMP
  • eBODY Classic
  • Standard Sizes

Lip Power

My really pretty lipstick is another free gift available at Pout! This is their gift for the SL-MHBC group, but the gift is set to the main Pout! group. So, join the Pout! group for free and grab a beautiful set of lipsticks for free. You will find this gift under the green SL-MHBC group sign at Pout!. It’s called “Lip Power HD Lipsticks”. The lipsticks come in 6 colours in solid and blended versions.

Sizes Included (Lipstick)

  • HD Applier for Lelutka EvoX

Carly

My pretty skin is a group gift from Voguel. Starla originally blogged the gift here. I thought it may be worth mentioning again because the fabulous “Carly” skin is a really beautiful and detailed gift. It comes in a full fatpack of tones and it works with Velour skin tones. On a side note, I always use the free neck fix from Velour to match these types of tones to whatever body skin I am currently wearing, and it usually works really well.

Sizes Included (Skin)

  • Lelutka EvoX BOM Layers

The Voguel group currently costs 10L to join, and you get this female skin as well as a men’s skin fatpack when you join the group for that low fee. Both of Voguel‘s group gift skins work on Lelutka EvoX heads only. See Starla’s linked posts below for her original features on these group gift skins from Voguel.

  • Starla’s original post featuring the Carly skin is here.
  • Starla’s original post featuring the Billy skin on her malt Vinny is here.
  • Another shot of Vinny wearing the male skin can be seen really well in Starla’s post here as well.

Have fun, FabFree!

Cute and Out of the Ordinary

Cute and Out of the Ordinary

Happy weekend, FabFree! I have some cute and out-of-the-ordinary finds to share with you today. There’s a lot here, so let’s jump into the deals!

Escape the Ordinary

Escape the Ordinary Hunt is a hunt I had never heard of until now! This is the third year the hunt has ran, and it’s organized by Stuff My Inventory Hunts. The theme of the hunt is all things different and out of the “normal”. You’ll see a variety of odd items available on the hunt, so there really is variety on this one! The cute cabinets shaped like dresses with mice popping out of them are the hunt prize from MOoH!, under their MOoH! Stuff product line. The hint to find the prize is, “find me under a pillow pile in the mainstore!”. These are so different but very cute. Each prize costs 3 Lindens on this hunt. You can see a list of the participating stores and hunt previews here. The Escape the Ordinary Hunt 3 ends on July 31st.

Cutie!

Now it’s time to move away from those cute mice and focus on me. I completed my look today using goodies from FabFree at Fifteen. Here’s the list of what I used from the event to make today’s cute and pink look.

  • For only 15 Lindens, you can be a cutie in the “Cute Summer Romper” from Shanti. It fits Maitreya Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, eBODY Classic, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, The Mesh Project, and Tonic Curvy & Fine.
  • The black boots are for sale at Shanti as well, available for 175L, and they are sized for Slink, Belleza, and Maitreya.

Cute and Out of the Ordinary II

  • From Edie’s, I am wearing their 15L special, which is a BOM makeup set made exclusively for Lelutka EvoX heads. The set includes 6 eyeshadow colours, 6 shades of lipstick, and 1 eyeliner. Allison showed their other Fab offers available here, so make sure you check out her post if you haven’t yet!
  • My pretty freckles are the free gift for FabFree group members at 7 Deadly s[K]ins. These come in 6 options of different freckles variations, and they come in BOM layers that fit Lelutka EvoX heads only.
  • At {Poeme} Couture, I picked up their super cute and free gift for FabFree group members, which is this cute hairpin. The gift includes a hud that allows you to change the pin to 6 different mosaic patterns.
  • Eventyra has these cute nails out for 15 Lindens! The pattern of these nails is a pretty white butterfly overlaid over bright colours, and you can change them to several different colour options using the hud. The hud includes nail and toenail appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink, Cinnamon & Chai, and Omega.

Thanks for reading, FabFam!

Searching for Neverland

Coming Soon

Peter Fan

Shanti has a really fun hunt at their store for the month of June. It’s The Neverland Hunt, a homage to the Peter Pan universe. What a fun theme! I absolutely love all the movies and books such as Peter Pan, Hook and my favourite of all time is the film Finding Neverland. I even saw a Peter Pan musical on Broadway. I’m a fan to say the least. So this was a fun one for me! Each prize costs 3 linden on the hunt. You will find the hunt key, hunt object, and preview of the prizes here. There are 8 prizes in total to collect until June 30th.

I am showcasing the gown and the butterfly headdress from the hunt. Several items from this hunt are made using hand-painted textures, so they are really vibrant and ethereal.

Sizes Included (gown)

  • Freya
  • Maitreya
  • Tonic Curvy & Fine
  • Hourglass
  • Isis
  • Legacy
  • Ocacin
  • Physique
  • Venus
  • Voluptuous
  • Fitmesh M

Majestic

I have one last sale to share before I go off to explore Neverland. This amazing hairstyle is 51L at Sintiklia for a limited time. This is another Happy Weekend Deal. To save an extra 9L, simply buy the deal with the free group Sintiklia tag active. It’s an amazing style. It comes with a colour hud of 36 bright colours, a tint hud, and several options for chest sizes. This will not be out long at all, so go quickly to get it!

Colourful

Coming Soon

As much as I love black clothing, I can enjoy a colourful look from time to time. Whenever I have the chance, I buy my favourite items in black. My blogger self is a just a wee bit more colourful than the way I dress when I’m alone and out of the spotlight. Anywho, today’s post is all about colour so let’s jump in and enjoy these colourful and bright items.

Multi-Coloured

Speaking of colours, the Multicolor Hunt is going on right now and they have a tonne of colourful items out at stores around the grid right now! Each prize costs only 3L, and here is a list of the hunt previews, LMs, and hints. The three gorgeous paintings behind me are the prize by Cwtch. You just click the painting to change the colours on it and you can copy it as many times as you want to display them around your house. They are so pretty and colourful! I just love them. 3 Linden for this gorgoeus set of artworks is a great deal! The Multicolor Hunt is going on until January 31st, so not much time left to get your hunt on!

Like a Swan

A while ago, folks in the FabFree chat were talking about Swan and all the gifts available at their store so I had to check it out. Swan appears to be a jewelery store, and they have a whole wall of dollarbies. Look for the ‘free‘ sign on the wall next to the group gifts. These dollarbies are separate from the group gifts. Once I found the wall of cute jewelery for only 1L a piece, I snatched them all up! The gold hoop earrings I am wearing are one of these gifts. They’re gorgeous! I am happy I checked out Swan, as this store was totally new to me until now! Thank you Fab chatters for introducing this awesome store to me! ❤

Lilly

Finally, these adorable shoes are a group gift at StaphaneL. These shoes are called Lilly and they come with options to change the clasps, soles, heels and different parts of the outside of the shoe to different textures. These are so customizable! The StephaneL group costs 15L to join but it’s so worth the join fee. Lots of group gifts and lucky letter prizes are to be found at StephaneL for their group members.

Sizes Included

  • Belleza
  • Maitreya
  • Slink

Christmas at the Beach

Christmas at the Beach

You know you’re in for an amazing time when BAE says “Put away the sweaters, pack your bag, and don’t forget the sunscreen.” If anything could make me give up on wanting a traditional snowy Christmas, it would be the chance to trade the shimmery white snow for sparkling white sandy beaches with Blue. Not to mention I can’t think of another occasion to wear this totally punk rock Christmas bikini by JR Wolf Creations. It is their Gothic Christmas Hunt prize. The hunt runs now through the 25th and the prizes are just 3 lindens. Each of the 3 pieces to this bikini set by JR Wolf Creations can be worn separately as well.

Sizes Included: Belleza (Frey, Isis, Venus). Maitreya Lara, Tonic (Curvy, Fine), Slink (Hourglass, Physique)

Hint: The blood letting candles flicker away, find where the flames dance and you will find me.

Here’s What I Have On:

Hair w/Hat – Doe: Agatha – Indecisive
Head – Catwa Koura
Skin – YS&YS – Kitty
Sunglasses – Cae :: Sommer :: Sunglasses
Bikini – JR Wolf Creations – Santa Skull Bikini – 3L GCH Prize

Tis The Season

Tis the Season

With all the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it feels good to stop and take a moment to enjoy time spent together. Blue and I took a minute to do a little hunting at Roped Passions. Their Candy Cane Hunt (Jack Frost Path) prize is a his & hers matching set. The prize for the ladies is the red belted coat with matching hot-pants, while the prize for the gentlemen is a matching shirt and formal vest. The single hunt prize is just 3 lindens, and it includes both gifts.

Female Gift Sizes Included: Standard Mesh & Alpha Layer, Belleza (Venus, Freya), Maitreya Lara, Slink (Hourglass, Physique), Tonic (Curvy,Fine)
Male Gift Sizes Included: Fitmesh Classic & Alpha Layer, Belleza Jake, Signature, Slink

Hint: Jack Frost Path – “In a Galax Far Far Away…”

For my look I paired the female Candy Cane Hunt prize from Roped Passions with the Candy Cane Hunt prize from Cog & Fleur. The necklace and earrings set are perfect for adding a regal touch to any holiday outfit. The beautiful red and gold jewelry has resize scripts, and there is an informative notecard in the box. Like all the Candy Cane Hunt prizes, this one at Cog & Fleur is just 3 linden.

Hint: Ice Queen Path – “Behind the reception desk there is a chair. Look Underneath!”

Happy Hunting Fab Free!

Peppermint Mocha

Peppermint Mocha

This time of year I always find myself reflecting on the year past, and looking forward to the year ahead. This year has been and continues to be one for the books. I hope everyone reading this has had a great year full of things to be grateful for. I am thankful for so many things, and extra thankful that you’re here reading this post!

For this blog post I did some of the Candy Cane Hunt hosted by Kastle Rock Couture. There are several paths on this hunt, each with 3 linden hunt prizes. I picked up the free gift at Kastle Rock, along with the 3 linden hunt prize at Kastle Rock. I also got the hunt prize at Luna to share with you. Keep reading for some details about each one, or scroll down for full credits. Happy Hunting!

Kastle Rock

Kastle Rock is the starting point for the Candy Cane Hunt. It’s also where you can pick up the free sunglasses shown sitting on the pile of books next to me in the above photo. This unisex gift is meant to be worn, has resize scripts for easy fitting. You’ll find this freebie waiting near the entrance to the Kastle Rock main store. Kastle Rock also happens to be a stop on the Sugar Plum path of the Candy Cane Hunt. The comfy holiday jammies I’m wearing is their 3 linden hunt prize. The set comes with a color change hud for the top with the choice of white, green, or red. There are also quite a few sizes, including those suitable for classic non mesh avatars, and an alpha layer is in the package as well.

Sizes Included: Classic Mesh + Alpha Layers, Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Maitreya Lara, TMP, Slink (Hourglass, Physique), Slender Fit, Curvy Fit

Hint – Sugar Plum Fairy Path – “Santa’s Helper says huh? August has a candy cane version?”

Luna

The deep red manicure and pedicure I am sporting is part of another Candy Cane Hunt prize. This one can be found at Luna. The red is a bit darker in my photo than it actually looks when worn. This cute nail applier set comes with 6 wintery/holiday options, 3 shimmery solid colors(red, white, blue), and red, white, or blue with cute snowflakes. Luna is also a stop on the Sugar Plum Fairy path of the Candy Can Hunt.

Appliers included: Slink, Maitreya, Belleza

Hint – Sugar Plum Fairy Path – “I love nutcrackers, reindeer and snowmen.”
