Sometimes, you just *gotta* blog something. The wings on this outfit sold me, I tried them on and said “woah!” out loud. Sold. Must blog. Sometimes too you can see the end photo in your head, sometimes you can get there and sometimes you can’t, but when you are inspired, there is always a vision. I saw my vision and got to create it this time, so I am grateful and blessed.
and I love anything with fingerless gloves. 😛 Just by the way.
So this awesome getup is another of those awesome free goodies at the Halloween Shop & Hop going on now and lasting until the end of the month. This is courtesy of Alter, which is a new to me designer (I’m discovering so many amazing designers lately! It’s such a delight!).
Honestly, you are gonna be unpacking for agessssss once you go to the shop & Hop (as usual!), I even wrote down a few places I want to go back to once I have some more lindens. There are also a few gift cards as gifties.
I’ve got one more Shop & Hop showcase coming up for you, so hold tight. Then it’s back to the spooky!

Well…. hello there, FabFree! No, I haven’t lost my mind or my shirt… well maybe the shirt… Let me explain … See, Poeme, being a go -to source of awesome things is introducing a whole line of these sweet ankle boots. And I knew I was going to grab them up … but at the very reasonable price of 99L, I couldn’t show them off on the Blog. Well, boo. Then the wonderful Elysiane Sapphire said “That’s no fun” and the she put these three fantastic patterns on a Special FabFree Sale! 75L each!
UPDATE:
Good News, Everyone! Elysiane sent me a text a few minutes ago because -I was WRONG! It’s not just these three styles of boots… It’s the entire line! That’s right… The whole shebang is just 75L each. But only till March 1st! So get over there!
So I knew I had to find a shirt that was equally cool to go with them. I looked around and realized… There’s NO shirt as cool as these boots! So I stopped trying and let the boots speak for themselves!
For a limited time, You can grab these three boots for the Fab price of 75L each. Be sure to take a look while you’re there at all the great Group Gifts too. You can’t go wrong at Poeme!

As January is coming to a close I can’t help but wonder what happened to the time? It seems to be going by so fast and there’s no way to slow it down. With everything in the world, I’m thankful that I have this outlet to express my love, joy, sorrow, and complacency here with you. Think my moral compass is on a vacation, which is where my head has been the past few weeks, drinking a nice frozen beverage with some fruit hanging off the cup. So if you’re waiting for an invitation, here it is, let’s allow ourselves to take a vacation and forget all the worries or stressors! First drink is free ^^

It’s starting to get cool in the mornings, a sure sign of Autumns arrival. Plus, just about everywhere, pumpkins and ghosts and those enormous bags of candy in the stores. I have to admit I am having a great time finding, and sampling, the bags Juli thinks she’s hidden around the house.
Speaking of finding treats, you will be hunting down a piece of candy for the Boo! Bunny Hunt to get your treat. This is the men’s gift from Ink Blots and it’s just one Linden plus some hunting. The warm jacket and sweater come as one convenient piece making dressing easy and quick. The details are of good quality and move well once it’s on. Something a lot of men’s wear struggles with. The Boo! Bunny Hunt runs until October 31rst so don’t delay.
Sizes Included

Why do I always end up waiting? Usually I’m waiting on Juli. This time is no different. She told me… ordered me to hurry up and go find something appropriate for Halloween so of course I did… now I’m just cooling my heels till she gets dressed. I may be here for a while.
Well, Bats
At least I was able to find something “Halloween – y” for the wait. And got it on the cheap. This is the ‘Bat Shirt’ from Dragonmoon Designs. And it was just 1L as part of the Monster Mash Hunt. There are quite a few men’s prizes on this Hunt so don’t miss it.

Hello Fab Free’rs! I found some hot freebies waiting at the Sense event and I’m super excited to share them with you. Both the dress and the necklace are free group gifts by Alter at the Sense event. I can’t say for certain if the two were made to go together or it’s just a happy coincidence. Either way, I think they make an awesome pair. Keep reading and I’ll explain exactly how to get both items for free.
The Dress – Not only is this sexy little red dress free, it’s fitted for just about everyone. It comes in quite a few mesh sizes, and includes an alpha layer for classic avatars. You’ll find the “Vixen” dress by Alter at the Sense event. Toward the back of the event there is a row of several group gifts, this dress is a free gift for members of the Mejora tu Apariencia or MTA group. The MTA group is free to join. Simply join the group then click the gift box while wearing your group tag.
The Necklace – Like the dress, this “Vianney” necklace is a free group gift at the Sense event. For this gift you’ll need to be wearing the Sense group tag. The Sense group is also free to join. Also, the necklace has resize scripts for easy fitting.
P.S. Though not shown, I thought it would be good to mention, there’s also a free men’s gift by Alter for the Sense group at the Sense event. It’s a complete outfit with shirt, pants, and shoes. The outfit is called “Owen”, and it happens to be red and black which would match the dress perfectly.
Here are the details!

Hi Fab Free! I’m back with some beautiful landscape/scenery finds from Simply Shelby. The setting in the above photograph is almost entirely made up of either one of the 30 Linden Saturday items at Simply Shelby or the equally awesome and completely free April group gift also at Simply Shelby. The only reason I say “almost” is because that small patch of green grass is not included. Keep reading for all the details about each fabulous offer at Simply Shelby.
30L Saturday – Simply Shelby has several offers for today’s 30L Saturday items. Generally speaking, I believe Simply Shelby does leave these items up until the following Saturday, however I wouldn’t guarantee that, so do not miss these just in case! I picked up her Druid’s Cave both because I love it, and of course because I really wanted to share it with you! This set includes the cave, with the added vines, candles, the little crystals and mushrooms, along with the Druid Priest, the alter, and an additional vine. The Druid Priest, the alter, and the vine are all copy, so you can rez out as many as you like, or leave them out all together. The cave is copy as well. No group is needed for this awesome set, just teleport to Simply Shelby and run over to the “Sales” building where you can purchase this set for just 30 linden along with several other fantastic items.
April Group Gift – The free April group gift at Simply Shelby is this lovely maple tree with surrounding floral landscape, rocks, and the adorable bunny all together. This item is no transfer, however it is copy and modify so you can adjust it to your liking if you so desire. Just be sure to make a copy first! To get your copy of this free group gift, you’ll need the Simply Shelby group tag. The group is currently free to join. Also, there are quite a few other group gifts also available. The Simply Shelby group gifts are located in the VIP/Hunts & Events building alongside the Lucky Chairs and Midnight Madness boards.
Happy New Year, Fabulous Readers! The other day, I told you about the Sense Event, showed a free gift I picked up there, and mentioned that there was another present there for the guys. I decided to start off 2019 by sporting the second outfit I picked up – the Casey Formal Set by Alter. Again, the generous designer has tucked everything you need for a complete outfit inside this free package.
Dressed for Success
Featuring a long sleeve, button down shirt, gleaming black trousers and lace up shoes all in black, this outfit is sharp looking, and can easily take you from a casual day of shopping with your lady to a night out on the town. I really like the sheen of the pants because they contrast just enough with the top to add visual interest, yet still coordinate with the ebony theme. The shoes are worn separately, but the clothing comes as a packaged set, so getting dressed quickly is a snap. To add Casey to your SL closet, travel to the Sense Event, activate the Teleport Hub group tag (10L join fee) and click the vendor. The free box contains versions for classic as well as mesh avatars, but I did have to switch to a different mesh body than my usual Belleza because there is no Jake option in the package.

Hi there, Fabulous Readers! The pupster and I decided to go for a long walk today and think about 2018. I like to do that as the year ends and decide what to keep and what to improve. The arrival of the new year brings a fresh, clean start, and I’m determined to set some realistic goals for myself – goals that I can stick to. As we meandered through the winter wonderland scenes at Lemon Beach, I began by listing what went well in the past year. For starters, finding budget friendly fashions and sharing them with our favorite readers is going right at the top of the “Keep on Trucking” list.
I Sense a Gift (or Two)
Earlier in the day, Rip and I made a visit to the Sense Event. This monthly happening showcases new releases in a variety of categories from menswear to furniture to home and garden to kids’ items to women’s wear. Each round opens on the 18th of the month. We arrived and landed in front of a Christmas tree surrounded by free gifts. Many of them are for the ladies, but I happily discovered two for the gentlemen. The free gift box from Alter contains a deep crimson button down shirt, classic black trousers and even shoes. The Owen top features rolled back cuffs, a subtle vertical stripe pattern, realistic folds and several buttons undone. The solid black trousers fit well and coordinate perfectly with the top. To complete the look, the generous designer also tucked a pair of oxfords inside the package as well. The best part about this gift is that it includes standard mesh for classic avatars as well as styles for popular mesh bodies – all for free! You just need to be a member of the Sense Event group, but it’s completely free to join.

Setting Some Goals
Now that we’ve examined what went well, it’s time to think of a few things to work on. I know for sure Kat has some ideas for chores around the house, but I reckon there’s room on the “To Do” list for some quiet moments fishing with man’s best friend. Isn’t that right, Rip? Rip?! Now where did he get off to? Ugh. That dog can hear the rattle of a box of Ripley Snacks more than a country mile away. Seems like he just might not be man’s best friend after all. I guess I’d better head home and get to work repainting the trim around the doors and attacking that “Honey Do” list. There will be plenty of time for fishing down the road (I hope). Until next time, happy shopping!
