As we approach the 4th of July here in America, take a moment and look around you. Take note of those closest to you and the joy they bring you. Celebrate friendship, love, and the joy you have in your life. Skybluepink was a color someone made up a long, long time ago (probably before I was born) and one day while out on a boat they said look at that sunset… it’s the prettiest color I’ve ever seen nature create. Since that day in my early adulthood I look at the sunset looking for the perfect one. So pay close attention in the summer at those beauties and you might get a glimpse of something very personal to my heart.
Today I bring you a cute little firecracker of an outfit from LsR, this hot little number was perfection for a sweet sunset shot. This free group gift will be the hit of the party so what are you waiting for? The group is currently 99L to join. While you are there don’t forget to grab all the past gifts on the wall! There are tons of them to choose from and you’ll be stylish for the next few months 😉

I absolutely love fireworks. That hasn’t always been the case, I was terrified of them as a child. I remember looking at them and feeling like they were so close they were going to burn me, I was not pleased. However, once I got past that it has been one long honeymoon for me and fireworks, for as you know, I love all things colorful and sparkly! Put that up in the night sky and you’ve made me a happy girl! I don’t like that they scare pets though. 😦 That part makes me sad.
So here in the states, as most of you know, we celebrate Independence Day. I feel like this year it stands for more than just one kind of independence. Partly, a coming out of the pandemic (hopefully!) and partly political for some of us. That makes it a bit extra happy for me this year.
I wanted to find something extra cute to wear to see the fireworks, and I found this adorbs dress at AMUI who has it for free, no group required (the vendor will ask you for 1L and give it right back, some vendors have to do that). It fits:
Altamura
BBL
Freya
Curvy
Kupra
Legacy
Maitreya
Hourglass
Physique
V-Tech
It also comes with a HUD so you can choose from 5 festive star spangled patterns for your holiday dress!
Now, my cute little Firework I am holding is from Rabbit House and it is a gacha at SL18B that is only 40L! They even have wearable fireworks that go off when you walk! Soooo cute! SL18B will be there until the 6th so there is still time to hit up this gacha and make yourself festively sparkly!
Happy Independence Day America!

Hello hello Fab Free’rs! Sorry it’s been so long since my last post, that pesky Real Life is relentless at times. Needless to say I am happy to be back, I missed you guys! If you live in the States like I do, our most patriotic holiday, Independence Day, is nearly here. Personally I just want to celebrate with friends and and family and take advantage of the opportunity for some summer fireworks. It wouldn’t be the 4th of July without some red, white, and blue gear to show your patriotic spirit. I picked up two free Independence Day inspired gifts to share, I hope you like them as much as I do!
The Bikini Top – I think this free star shaped bikini top from Dirty Princess is a must-have. Not only is it perfectly patriotic, it’s also something I’d wear all summer, no holiday needed. This freeDirty Princess group gift comes in 2 versions, the one with white ties shown, and one with red ties. The Dirty Princess group is free to join. This free gift is sized for Maitreya only. To get yours head over to Dirty Princess, enter the store at the entrance with the horses, the gift is waiting next to the desk.
The Phone – For a little fun ChicChica put out this cute patriotic cell phone out as a free for everyone gift. There’s no group needed, just purchase the gift for zero linden. This free USA themed phone has a hold pose. You’ll find this freebie waiting on the ChicChica desk.
Growing up, one of my favorite classes in high school was French, and I had an amazing French teacher who was French-born. We would celebrate Bastille Day on July 14th, and my French teacher was always great about recognizing both the 4th of July as well as Bastille day, and we would have celebrations for both as she would teach us the importance of both holidays and how they were similar and how they were different. I admired her a lot.
I thought of her today as I stopped on my gift rounds and put together my outfit. I thought of her as I thought about the importance of fighting for human rights, freedom, and things we believe in. She was an inspiration to me. So this post is for her… my le 4 Juillet!
Pick up your heels!
Graffitiwear put out two really terrific gifts for the month of July, so pick up your heels and get down to the store to pick them up! If you are already a subscriber member, you should have received the free July Subscriber gift, which is this great set of Strappy Blue heels. They come in a box that includes heels to fit Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza feet, as well as a pair that says “Map” that I’m not familiar with. If you’re not a subscriber, just slab that board and the heels will be delivered to you!
A new dress!
My new dress is the July group gift. Just wear your Graffitiwear group tag and pick up this July dress which is perfect for any July celebration.
It comes in the following sizes:
Fitmesh XS – XL
TMP
Ebody
Maitreya – Lara
Tonic – Curvy & Fine
Slink – Hourglass & Physique
Belleza – Freya, Isis, & Venus
New hair too!
I’ve been showing you some of the great gifts from the Hair Fairhere and here, and I’m back again with another great style. I love this edgy look from KoKoLoReS called “Sniper.” I think it’s super sexy, and it’s not only free but it comes in a fatpack of colors too!
Again I went to the cam area and shopped from there, using the trick that I told you about in my post here to be able to select things from long distances. I picked up this style and was thrilled!
Happy cam shopping at the Hair Fair! There are so many wonderful gifts to be had!

I took a stroll down The Old Fashion 4th of July Street Fair, which is going on until July 9th, and was thrilled to see all the free gifts (woot free!) as well as the discount deals and low cost items. There were many free items I could have shown off for you, but in the end, I decided I would spend a little bit of linden to don the one thing that really caught my eye!
Ready for Independence Day!
At the G Sloane booth, I picked up this Mesh Flag Wrap Dress for just 10L! It comes in all the standard mesh sizes with a quality alpha as well and fits like a dream. (There were several other discount items at this booth that were just as pretty as well as a free gift basket!) I couldn’t resist the pretty wrap style, and the price was just right.
As I showed you in my post here, I went cam shopping for gift hair at the Hair Fair again. Don’t forget to check out my tip on how to get rid of that pesky issue that keeps you from selecting things that are far away. My post here tells you the special trick.
This time, I picked up this pretty hair from DUE called Crystal. It only comes in the one color (brunette) but it was such a lovely pony tail style that I didn’t mind deviating from my usual silver colored hair. And it was free too!
I hope you have a great day gearing up for the 4th of July tomorrow!

I guess I wasn’t quite ready to give up my 4th of July holiday spirit just yet. Especially when I saw the current group gift from Entice. This is the ‘Yankee Doodle’ tank and shorts set. The set can be worn separately and each piece is controlled by a HUD so you can choose from three colors/patterns. And talk about sizing… each piece comes in the standard Mesh sizes XXS-L, FitMesh sizes XXS-L, Maitreya, SLink and Belleza! There are separate alpha layers for the tank, the shorts and an ‘all in one’ alpha too.
The Entice group is free to join and when you do, you get access to group only Midnight Mania and other fun stuff. Don’t miss the group and non-group Midnight Mania boards, RezDay gifts and the Lucky letter boards while you’re there!

Happy July 4th to all who celebrate! I’m always excited to share new freebies with my Fab Free family, however I’m extra excited about the most recent subscriber gift from E. Vary. I’ve also come across some fun patriotic items from #bubbles and KC Couture to help get into the spirit of the day while still looking fabulous!I have been so eager to show this gorgeous “Winnie” skin from E. Vary since I found out about it! For those of you who aren’t sure what this skin is about, the skin condition is called Vitiligo which causes skin cells to lose their pigmentation creating these random patches of pigment-less skin. The name “Winnie” is inspired by the real life model Winnie Harlow whom is a high fashion model with Vitiligo. The purpose of this truly striking skin is to raise awareness of the condition and promote a positive image. You’ll find this FREE subscriber gift at the E. Vary main location. Just join the subscriber, if you haven’t already, then click the vendor photo. In the package you’ll find the Winnie skin in 3 tones. There is a system skin layer in each tone, 2 hair base options, 4 shapes, an Omega applier for Catwa, Slink, Eve, and other Omega compatible heads, as well as an Omega body applier in each skin-tone. Don’t miss out on this amazing FREE gift from E. Vary!
Now I couldn’t very well let the 4th of July pass by without a fun patriotic look. This super cute wrap top is on sale for a limited time at #bubbles for just 49 lindens. If the U.S. flag doesn’t do it for ya, not to worry, there’s are solid red, white, or blue options available as well! Each version of this cute mesh top includes standard mesh sizes, fit mesh, as well as fit sizes for Maitreya, Belleza, and Slink bodies. I think this top from #bubbles is the perfect style top for a fun day in the sun on this summer holiday.
To match my cute top from #bubbles I continued with my patriotic theme and added these detailed wedge sandals from KC Couture. After all, how often do you get to pull off red white and blue?! These FREE gift shoes are available just outside the KC Couture main store, at the landing point. You can’t miss the giant vendor board, you’ll also see a cool pair of men’s chucks available. To get these too cute shoes, you’ll need to join the KC Couture group, which is FREE to join. Once wearing your tag, just click the vendor and the shoes are yours. The package includes a Maitreya fit, Slink fit, Eve Fit, Belleza fit, and TMP fit shoes. I really cannot express how cute these shoes are on, not to mention it’s not often I find a FREE shoe gift with all these fit options!
I love this holiday! And SL hasn’t let me down with tons of fun things for the Fourth. My favorite this year is this cute tunic type dress from Sevyn East. The “4Th of July” Group Gift comes in the standard Mesh sizes XS-XL and it comes with appliers for Maitreya, Belleza and SLink! The Sevyn East group is free to join making this a really awesome “Freedom Day” gift. I don’t know how much longer this tunic will be available since it IS a holiday theme. SO if you love go grab it quick!
Even though this can be worn as a mini dress, I paired it with some denim shorts ( from the dark ages section of my Inventory) for a tunic look. I also tossed on my red and navy flip flops from Vicarious Youth. Those flipflops are still available at the Vicarious Youth Cart for just 10 little lindens. But you only have until July 6th to snatch them up!
Now that I’m properly done up for the 4th, I’m going to hang out and watch some fireworks and eat hotdogs like a good ‘Merican!
