Days Before the Snow

It hasn’t started to snow in New York City yet; but I know with the chill in the air, that time is coming soon.  I am enjoying the last days of fall in the Second Life as well.  I found this cute Evil Bunny tank top by Corvus for free on the marketplace.  It will be great for summer, but I couldn’t wait to try it on now.  I wanted to complete the outfit with a ncie pair of gothy pants, and luckily I stumbled on the G-pants by Voice while exploring.  The pants are a free group gift and the group is free to join.   The pants also come with a HUD so you can choose from various colors and textures.  Voice also has some other nice gifts, so you should get them while they are still available.

Sweater Weather Season

It is getting chilly in New York, which means that sweater season is right around the corner.  And what better way to celebrate cold weather and the approaching holidays that with an ugly sweater party?  Luckily, designers on second life have the same idea.  I found this cute “Ugly Xmas Sweater” with a reindeer print under the Christmas tree for 1L at XO Xtra Ordinari (adult sim). The sweater comes in both mens and womens sizes in the box, so no one is left out at the ugly sweater party this year.

I was feeling a bit festive with this ugly sweater, so I decided to track down some makeup to complete the look.  I found this great eyeshadow for free on the marketplace from Absinthe! called “Grinch.” It is a festive read and green combination and comes in BOM.

Just might feel like singing Autumn song

I was pretty excited for SL Black Friday this year.  I made a list of all my favorite stores and waited for the sales to start.  I also watched notices of all the secondlife groups I am in for notifications on new stores to check out.  There were so many great deals!  During my bargain hunting spree, I stumbled on Beauty of Darkness.  The Almost There Top and Mistery Pants were both free group gifts.  (The group is also Free to join.)  The top and pants are both BOM layers.

It’s getting chilly out, so I needed a jacket.  I dug through my inventory and found the Laila Jacket by WellMade, which I picked up a while ago for free at the The Free Dove. It’s nice to find little gems tucked away in your inventory, isn’t it?  I don’t remember when I got the jacket, but it is very cute.  To get it, just join their free group and click on the box.

Vacation, All I Ever Wanted

I decided to take a break getting ready for a very small Thanksgiving tomorrow to take a mini-vacation on Second Life.  I found a cute little sim called Butter (you can see their blog here) and spend some time relaxing before I start my bread and pumpkin pie baking.  Of course, I needed some new clothes for my trip.  I found this cute Abella dress at the Y&M Store as a free group gift and the group is also free to join.

I am always trying out new makeup looks, so when I found this eyeshadow set from Odd Polly for free on the marketplace, I could not resist.  It comes in several different color combinations, all BOM.

Magic in the Snow

On the weekend there was snow everywhere.  It fell for hours and hours, covering the world in a fluffy blanket, and turning the trees into lace overhead.  It was gorgeous, magical and full of wonder.  A few days later, and the world is a soggy mess.  I’m recreating the magic in SL, because I need it for just a little longer!

House Proud

The gorgeous house behind me comes courtesy of Dragon Magick Wares!  It’s their prize for the Candy Cane Hunt and will only set you back 3L and a bit of time searching!  You’ll find all the info and the hint on the board when you land.  You can’t beat a house for such an awesome price, so do make sure you head over there!  Won’t it look wonderful all decorated for the Holidays?

Zooming Around

Yesterday, I told you all about the Black Friday Bazaar that is running until December 1st.  You’ll find plenty of awesome free gifts, and this one by Zoom is just too nice not to show you.  The shirt is gathered, perfectly fit and really quite versatile – wear it with jeans or a skirt and you’ll be ready for anything!  To get it, head on over to the Black Friday Bazaar and join the free group to access all the gifts.

The Purrr-fect Fit

Even though I have two cats at home, I never pass up the opportunity to visit with other kitties.  One of the great things about Second Life is that many shop owners and sim developers have pets on their sims as well.  I stumbled on this adorable cat cafe sim the other day and I thought it was the perfect place to show off my latest cat-themed finds.  This great cat print dress by Moonstar was free at the Bundles by Dove event.  It comes with a cute cat ear headband as well.

Remember the cats, Luna and Artemis, from the anime, Sailor Moon?  I do.  And these fun tights from Shinagami bring back fond cartoon memories of my childhood.  The best part is the tights only cost 1L on the marketplace.  One pair is Artemis and the other is Luna and the tights are BOM.

Watch it Swirl

It’s Sunday and the snow truly is coming down in my part of the world.  That clearly calls for a bit of chilling (literally and figuratively) in questionable outfits while surrounded by things that make me feel cozy.  All I need is a pile of books and a window to watch the swirling snow come down.

That’s Amore

Moon Amore have a few group gifts out, and while I was there a few days ago I noticed this little top that we hadn’t shown on the blog before.  It’s just the right kind of crazy for me, because in my silly mind it can be dressed up or down – and by that I mean, wear it to please yourself on a quiet day, and become a mad sexy superhero hell-bent on global domination on others!   It comes with an HUD to change to several other pretty, shiny hues and is sized for Maitreya bodies.  Anyway, to get yours, and also all the other fun gifts at Moon Amore, just join the group for 55L.

And yes, those are drag queen dolls behind me.  10 points if you can name them!

Among the Ruins

Here we go, FabFree.  Time to visit some ruins in a snazzy outfit.   What, you don’t do that every day?  Well, technically neither do I, but I do love a good ruin and a great outfit.  Next time I’ll visit the Forum in Rome wearing a ball gown.

Aline’s Kustom

It is indeed my custom to visit the event Kustom9 every month and play a few gachas.  I’ve extolled the virtue of Amitomo’s gachas many times in the past, mostly because it actually is an excellent deal.  I know there are gachas out there that are fun to play, but you often end up with 20 pairs of nose rings in puce, instead of the item you really want.  When it comes to Amitomo, you’re sure to walk away with a full outfit even if you’re just pulling once or twice.  Whenever I play these gachas, I keep our readers in mind – I know many of us like a good bargain, and I feel that Amitomo really does deliver bang for your buck.  At just 69L per pull, I got this top, shorts, and jacket (sized for Maitreya bodies) after my first try.  Worth it!  You’ll find lone jackets, earrings as well as a pretty hairstyle as the prizes too.  Good luck!

Now I wonder if there is a sim that features the Forum in Rome….

The darkness of the music of the night

I’m sure you’ve all figured out from my posts by now that I love hunts.  I like to visit new sims, find out about new stores and of course, search for fabulous gifts.  I stumbled on The Phantom of the Opera Hunt a few days ago and had to give it a try.  The best part– all the gifts are free.  The hunt took me to Jinx, where I got this Phantom of the Opera pose hud.  (The pose I am doing is called “iaaaa” on the HUD.)  Then later, Fugue, where after some hunting, I found this cute Operetta Dress.

No outfit is complete without some cute lipstick.  Nevrose has a six lipstick set for it’s free group gift. (the group is also free to join.)  It come in 6 colors with Catwa and Leluka appliers.

Shout it from the Rooftops

FabFree!  It’s time to mix colours, be crazy, be different, be sexy, and be happy!  Let’s just change our narrative now, forget the doom and gloom and turn it all upside down and make the world a better place with love, positivity and colour.  That doesn’t mean throw caution and safety the wind (just sayin), but let’s turn all our frowns upside down and scream happy affirmations from the rooftops.  Why not?

She’s a Magnoliac!

In order to inject some colour and madness, I always think a new dress does wonders.  The latest group gift at Magnoliac has loads of pretty colours in the HUD and will suit just swimmingly.  To get your own (as well as the matching choker, which can be worn and coloured separately) just join the Magnoliac group for 75L.  There are several other group gifts out too, making this group join quite worth it!
