Out to Dry

Out to Dry
Yes yes, I’m back again, and with more swimwear for your weekend!  I’m sure you don’t mind TOO much, right?  Well, it is that season in SL where bathing suits seem to be coming out of the woodwork, but I for one really love growing my collection.  I dunno, maybe it’s a bit of a mania… hmmm…

To Addams We Go

There’s a new group gift at Addams!  I couldn’t pass up showing this one off for you, now could I?  If you join their group for just 5L, you’ll find a few group gifts there, including this quite lovely bikini and matching shirt to cover up.  The HUD is pretty extensive, so you can mix and match the colours to your heart’s content.

Sizes

  • Freya
  • GenX
  • GenX Curvy
  • Kupra
  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Perky
  • Petite
  • Reborn

I never pass up a good swimwear moment!

Tied Together With A Smile

Tied Together With A SmileI feel that it’s my duty to mention two fantastic events that are ending very soon. Both events are celebrating anniversaries, both are loaded with free gifts, and you’ll regret not visiting both before it’s too late. Trust me.

Redeux

Aline already told us here that Redeux is having an anniversary. I really love this event. A nice circuit of presents to collect for a nice variety of free gifts. I fell in love with this sweet top by Faida. You’ve gotta be in the free group to collect all of the free gifts, and make sure that you do it by April 30th because that’s when it’s all set to disappear.

Sizes:

  • Cinn&Chai
  • Kupra
  • Kups
  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Maitreya Flat Chest
  • Maitreya Petite
  • Slink HG
  • Tonic Mini

Cosmopolitan

Part II of the current Cosmopolitan anniversary round is absolutely loaded with gifts. There is so much amazing stuff from so many incredible designers. You’ve already seen a few posts about it on FabFree but we’ve barely scratched the surface. I didn’t know what direction to take, but I already had my heart set on that cutey cute top from Redeux, so I decided that my “theme” would be flowers. Once that was settled I picked out this lovely bouquet and tiara to show you. “But Allison, the tiara isn’t floral.” Well yes yes that’s true, I’m simply wearing that because I’m a princess. Smirks. Now then, here are the freebies from Cosmopolitan that I’m showing off:

  • Free bouquet of flowers by Finca, in the mixed colors that I’m holding or just traditional white daisies and with a variety of holding poses
  • Free crown by Safira, for princessing around

Just wear your free Cosmopolitan Club &  Lounge tag and collect all of the free gifts upstairs. The event will be open until April 29th.

Both events will be gone when the weekend is over, so don’t be too slow!

Yearning for Sun

Yearning for Sun

Why yes I do need to head somewhere warm and sunny, possibly with terra cotta coloured walls and the rays slanting down against them and reminding me that the cold will at some point, decide to recede for the season.  Phew.  I said that in a very long-winded sentence.  Can you tell I’m ready for some warmth?

Feeling Magika

There are three new group gifts at Magika for you!  There are two new sets of bangs that pair very nicely with their hairstyles and come with very extensive HUDs.  There’s also a sweet little hair clip to add too!  The Magika group is free to join currently, making these pretty little hair additions completely free.

La Vie en Pose

La Vie en Pose is back with another round and they have a free gift at every display.  Just join the Synergy Shoppers group for free and then click on the gift boxes, and you’ll be rolling in poses, backdrops, and other photo tools before you know it.  Here’s what I found:

  • FREE poses by Sassy Sweet Poses (with 8 different in the box!)
  • FREE lighting by FAC
  • FREE backdrop by Visera

La Vie en Pose is running until April 6th!

Mmm…sunshine!

A Slice of Pi

A Slice of Pi

Happy Pi Day!  I’ve got 3.14 reasons for you to head on over to Pink Cream Pie today… And a Pi Day shirt is one of them!

Gimme a Slice

March 14th is all about math-type things.  But, I won’t get into them.  Because I’m terrible at Math.  I speak 4 languages and 2 dialects though, so I feel like I make up for not knowing how to do mathy things.  Anywhos, hurry on over to Pink Cream Pie today for a free top to celebrate this most auspicious of days.  No group needed, and you’ll find it right behind the front desk.

Sizes

  • GenX Classic
  • GenX Curvy
  • Maitreya
  • Legacy
  • Petite
  • Reborn

Hmm…maybe I need a slice of pie.  That should do it.

Hit The Dab

Hit The DabHello out there. Hopefully you, like me, are lazing your way through the week between Christmas and New Years’. Time spent however you want it to be, sometimes industrious and other times downright wasteful. And of course spent on favorite hobbies too, like sniffing out freebies and deals!

Dollar Pie

Pink Cream Pie is mentioned time and time again here on FabFree, because the group is awesome and loaded with perks. But what if you’re not in the group? Well, then this is the post for you, my friend. Pink Cream Pie has a dozen or so really nice items out there on SL Marketplace for only 1L each! I was a little bit conflicted about which one to actually show you but I mean come on, a hoodie of a dabbing unicorn with a sombrero and maraca? There really was no other choice. You can find it on the marketplace here, and you can see all of the 1L items excluding demos here. The hoodie comes in sizes for Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya and is a linden very well spent.

One more note on these marketplace dollarbies – from some light inventory searching most of these items appear to not be past group gifts, so people who are in the group will want to check it out as well. Dollar pie for everyone!

Free Skinnery

I’m rounding out my look with the latest free group gift skin from The Skinnery. It’s part of the illustrious Holiday Special event, which I’ve named “Lelutka & Friends” in my head. Whatever you call it, you can read the details here when Aline first broke the news on FabFree and it’s definitely one not to missed.

The Skinnery‘s free gift is this lovely Eve skin in a long list of skin tones, with brow and no brow versions of each. To get it you’ll need to join The Skinnery group, which is currently free to join. This is a paid group that I assume will go back to having a fee when the event ends after December 30th. You’ll find a whole bunch of other free group gifts in the store as well and in my opinion the group is worth staying to see what others are added.

6,150L in Store Credits & Gift Cards @ Halloween Shop & Hop 2022

Hey FabFree! I am back with another edition of free store credits and gift cards available at the Halloween Shop & Hop this year. The Halloween Shop & Hop closes on November 1st, but sometimes the credits are taken away early, so go run and collect them soon. I apologize for posting this mid-way through the event. I still wanted to whip up a post so you could all benefit.

What are Store Credits vs. a Gift Card?

For those who need a refresher, gift cards are objects that send to your inventory that allow you to buy any product in a store. You have to add the gift card hud to your screen and use the “buy” menu to purchase it. In comparison, store credit adds linden “credits” on your account, which you can use to purchase items at a store using the vendor’s menu. Note that often store credits and gift cards have an expiry date and some limitations on items that can be purchased with them, so read up on the offer when you get it!

Fall Into You

Fall Into You

And I’m back in Fall mode.  Isn’t it the best that we can switch back and forth so seamlessly in SL?  It’s the best that I can freely indulge in all my multiple moods (and personalities) with just a few clicks, don’t you think?

Happy Anniversary!

Tachinni are celebrating an anniversary, and with that they’re offering their group members 400L in store credit.  I picked up this very distinctive (and kinda sexy!) dress that cost only 299L.  That left me a bit of store credit to play around with.  The Tachinni group is 15L to join, and store credit is yours to use until October 23rd.  Don’t delay!

Sizes

  • Kupra
  • Legacy
  • Perky
  • Maitreya
  • Petite

Autumn Mood

Autumn Coffee

My full fall Autumn mood mode is on, FabFree. I’m just waiting for the colourful leaves to start changing while I sip on a warm Autumn drink. I put together a coz outfit and added some lovely fall tights from Love Lace. Their group currently costs only 5L to join. These stockings have a lovely ombre autumn leaves pattern on them. These tights come in nine colours.

Sizes Included

  • BOM

Spoiled by Hera Kors

Hera Kors Boutique just moved to a new location and re-vamped their store. They have some amazing free offers at their store right now, which I am showcasing today.

Autumn Coffee II

  • First off, they have a 500L Gift Card. This giftcard is available until September 21st. I used my gift card to buy a pack of eyes and a pack of eyeshadows. Both items come with several colour options. The eyes fit BOM and Lelutka Evo/EvoX and the eyeshadows work with Lelutka Evo/EvoX. You will need to join their free group to get the gift card and make sure you spend it before September 21st because it will expire before then.
  • My eyelashes and lipstick are both free group gifts for their store group members. The group may be temporarily free to join and subject to change to a pay group. Both the lipsticks and lashes are appliers that work with Lelutka EvoX heads only.

Enjoy, FabFree!

Here’s My Number

Here's My NumberSometimes life just needs a little silliness, even in SL. Dare I say? Especially in SL. Because some people take themselves waaaaay too seriously.

Don’t Ask Me, I’ll Never Tell

Ananas! I got my super fun phone costume at Ananas. It is a free group gift and the group is free to join. Ananas is the perfect store when you need some silliness in your SLife and there are a handful of other group gifts sure to put a smile on your face as well.

Don’t forget to have fun out there, FabFree!

Allison convinced me… maybe I won’t let go of the beach quite yet.  Or ever.  Until I change my mind again, at least.

Happy Anniversary, Firestorm!

My SL viewer of choice has been Firestorm for many many years now, and they’re celebrating their 12th anniversary!  If you tp over to one of their (several) sims, you’ll find a few awesome gifts to pick up and celebrate!  There’s no need to join a group, just click on the gifts to get them – they’re all free!  I’m wearing the lovely top from Addams (it comes in both black and white…and there’s also a version for the men too), as well as the unisex sneakers from Versov with gorgeous Firestorm-themed stitching.  The shoes are sized for Belleza Male, Legacy Male, Legacy Female, Maitreya, Signature, Freya, Slink Female, Slink Male and Unrigged.  I’ve included a closeup below so you can admire the loveliness of it all.  These gifts will be around til the end of September, so make sure you nip over and raise a glass to FS.
