Happy Tuesday! I did not intend to get so…rainbow hued on a Tuesday such as this, but here we are. Actually I kind of feel like a mermaid, and I’m here for it.
The Eyes
Truth be known, it started with the eyes. Don’t neglect your eyes in SL! It is such a simple thing to upgrade, and quality eyes make such a huge difference to the look of your avatar. It is a soapbox I will never get off of. When I saw the ad for the eyes that I’m wearing here today, I knew that they would soon be mine. They are courtesy of A R T E and only 50L for a pack of stunning blue shades, for today’s Fifty Fifty (formerly Hello Tuesday) sale. You’ll have to grab them today if you want them for the sale price. Which you do.
Lovely Locks
After that, I remembered that I had forgotten all about Nova! How could I? It’s been a while since I’ve seen Nova mentioned on the blog here, so I thought you might need a reminder too. Just head over to the store, join the free group, and there is a nice selection of free hairstyles inside by the front desk. I’m wearing Muse and it comes a sweet fatpack of similarly bright and cheerful color options, plus a full style HUD.
Matchy Match
I’d had my eye on this outfit from MonaMur to show you for a minute and today just felt like the perfect time. It’s a fatpack of color options and includes the top, skirt, and pants in sizes for:
Legacy
Maitreya Lara X
Reborn
Reborn Juicy Rolls
Legacy
Maitreya Lara X Petite
Reborn Waifu Boobs
To get it, take this tp to MonaMur, join the free group, and click the vendor for the free gift!

‘Sup peeps! I’m feeling pretty comfortable in this blogging gig, I got 2 posts behind me and I think I’m a natural 😉 I’m sure Beachy will have some kind of critique for me but I can roll my eyes just as well as she can.
She sent me over to the MIIX Event to pick up the mens’ gifts, and there are a decent amount. You need to join the free HYPE Events group to pick up the gifts. I’m wearing 2 of them in today’s post:
FREE Pants by Arte (sized for Jake, Gianni, Legacy)
FREEVisor by Impacts Store (unrigged with color hud)
I hear there’s over 80 gifts at the MIIX event, probably 10 or so are for men, but every little gift helps, hey? The MIIX Event closes on April 20th (more about that in Beachy’s post I’m sure 😜) so you’ve got time, even if you’re a last minute kind of guy.
No shirt, no shoes, no service
I had to go searching for a shirt and shoes to wear with these pants and hat, and I lucked out over at Treized, where they had BOTH of the items I needed as group gifts. Better yet, the Treized group is free to join. You can find this Summer tank top on the wall to the right of the door. It comes with a 5 texture hud and it’s sized for:
Jake
Gianni
Geralt
The slides are the newest gift, and they’re on the wall behind the front desk. These slides come with a full fatpack of colors and they’re sized for:
Jake
Gianni
Legacy
Maitreya
Unrigged
I bet Beachy never expected ME to blog something that’s unisex, she of little faith. I guess I’d better get moving though, seems like hanging out at this party house on this rusty car might bring me more trouble than I’m ready for today.
Peace Out ☮️

It’s been a little over 7 years since I started blogging for Fab Free. Love Trill took a chance on an eager-to-learn wanna-be fashionista with no blogging experience and limited photography skills. I’m forever grateful she did. Not only did I learn new things, best of all it’s through this blog, Fabulously Free in SL, that I’ve made some of my most cherished personal connections. The kind that I hope against hope will last a lifetime. I’m lookin’ at you, my fellow bloggers, past and present. In a round about way, it’s even through blogging for Fab Free that I found a kind of love that I had not even imagined.
Needless to say, the last 7 years have meant a lot to me, more than heartfelt words, or poignant quotes could ever express. I want to say thank you also to those of you who read the blog regularly, and have taken a moment over the years to show appreciation for the hard work and dedication that goes in to a blog like Fab Free. After more than 15,000 blog posts, I feel it’s time for me to say farewell to blogging for Fabulously Free in SL and take time for new adventures. Thank you for everything, from the bottom of my heart.
No Goodbyes
For this, my last post, I do of course have some freebies and fabulous finds to share with you. I picked up the group gifts at the latest round of Cosmopolitan. There are two gifts this time, an upper body tattoo by AuricA, and a set of stunning eyes by Arte. I also of course picked up the Happy Weekend Sale item by Muniick again this week. Seriously, I just could not resist!
AuricA
This upper body tattoo by AuricA is free with your Cosmo Sales group tag. The group is free to join, and the gift is waiting on a signboard just inside the Cosmo event entrance. The tattoo comes in a single applier hud, that has appliers for Slink, Belleza, Maitreya, TMP, and Omega compatible bodies.
Arte
I think these eyes by Arte are really beautiful. They have an ethereal look to them in my opinion. They also happen to be a free group gift at the Cosmo event. Again the event group is free to join, I’ll link it down below. These free eyes come in 8 colors that range from natural looking to otherworldly. They are also in several appliers, a set of mesh eyes, and BOM layers so anyone can wear them. Also, there are small, medium, and large options for each eye-color.

Muniick
Alright, I might have an issue with collecting furniture as of late. I’m not at all mad about it though! This weekend (today is the last day!) Muniick has their French Revival Armchair and Ottoman set for 60 linden as part of the Happy Weekend Sale. This set is copy, so you can set out multiples. There are also color change options, and so many poses I couldn’t give you an accurate count. No group is required to get the discount price.
I’ve always thought of the notion of a first snowfall as something magical and wonderous, though admittedly that’s partly due to having experienced so few in my lifetime. That said, there are quite a few free gifts waiting on the Christmas tree inside the Cosmopolitan Sales event, and these delicate snow flurries by Persefona are my favorite. For this look I also picked up the freeCosmo gifts by Limited Addiction, IDTTY, and ARTE. I also happen to be wearing a cute little sweater dress by Rebel Hope that you can find inexpensively on the Marketplace. Keep reading for all the details.
Persefona
These pretty little snow flurries are an attachment by Persefona. You can get them for free at the Cosmo event by joining the event group and clicking the stockings on the Christmas tree just inside the entrance. The Cosmopolitan Sales event group is free to join. This wintery gift includes a resizer hud that lets you easily adjust the size of the snowy attachment.
Limited Addiction
My sassy cute knee-high socks and ankle boots are also free at Cosmo, courtesy of Limited Addiction. You’ll find them waiting on the Christmas tree with the many other free gifts. These sassy holiday themed shoes come with a texture change hud for the socks that lets you pick from a few holiday color combinations.
Both my eye makeup and lip-color are part of the freeCosmo group gift by IDTTY. Their gift is a festive makeup “Jolly Days Collection” that includes 2 eye makeup looks, and 2 lipsticks. I’ve added the vendor photo below so you can get a look at both of these gorgeous holiday makeup looks.
Appliers Included: Genus, Catwa, Lelutka
ARTE
Most skins include a browless option which makes experimenting with different brow shapes and colors a lot easier and more fun. The brows I’m wearing are the freeCosmo gift by ARTE. I think they look sleek and quite natural. In this free gift you’ll find BOM layer eyebrows in brown, light brown, dark brown, blond, red, and a tint-able version. Also there are Omega, and Catwa appliers, and a brow shaper included.
Rebel Hope
Finally, this pretty sweater dress is a Marketplace find by Rebel Hope. It’s just 25 linden and includes a color change hud for the ties and metal bits. If you’re interested in a color other than red, there are several to choose from. Each color is just 25 linden on the Marketplace.
Hey y’all! I fear that my favorite season might really be coming to an end. Luckily, I found the perfect little outfit to wear while I enjoy every last speck of Summer, before mean old Autumn shows up and invites his even worse pal Winter along.
Lilo
Belle Epoque has put out a new free group gift and it is seriously fabulous. All of the little details make it stand out from the crowd, like the adorable little ruffles and some really great lacing on the back of the top…and other details that I don’t know the names for because I don’t know how to fashion. But they’re really cute, see? It comes in one size, which is not labeled but which fits my Maitreya body perfectly. The Belle Epoque group is 10L to join and is it worth it? You know it! Besides this, there are a handful of other must-have gifts on the wall in the store.

Oooooh FabFree, it’s been quite the weekend in RL. It poured down rain for 4 solid days, I’ve been cooped up with two stir crazy tiny people, there was a leak in my ceiling (but luckily it was just a vent leaking and not the roof), and to top it all off I have the worst cold ever. I think I might be dying. So if this is my last post, it was nice knowing you. RL me has been just fine at handling everything although SL me has been in a bit of a mood for entirely different reasons…I’ll let the facial expression speak for itself. But things have to look up sometime, right? Here’s hoping that the sun really is coming out!
On9 turns my mood around!
I’ve been neglecting my shopping lately but when I saw on Seraphim that this is a “special gift round” of On9 I hopped on over to have a look. Almost every designer has a free gift out and there is no group required! I’m wearing two of them today. I got my fun layerfull (yup, that’s a word now) dress free from ArisArisB&W. It come with a HUD for 4 cute pattern options and in sizes for:
Belleza Freya, Isis, & Venus
Ebody
Maitreya
Slink Hourglass & Physique
Tonic Curvy & Fine
I thought this necklace went perfectly with the dress. It is the freegift at On9 from EXiiA.
I hope that you’ve had a better weekend than me, and that you have a fantastic week!

Good morning, FabFree! I’ve had a 90s alternative station streaming on Amazon Music most of the morning. I really need to do that more often, all of the songs are sooooo good. Does that make me old? Don’t answer that. I mean, I was in middle school or high school when I listened to most of this music, but I suppose that doesn’t really make a difference. Well either way, it’s been a lovely morning…good music and a bikini to show you…both are things that make me happy!
The bikini is not just adorable, it’s also FREE. It is the current group gift at M*Motion and the group is free to join. There are lots of cute little details like the ties on the sides and little beads at the bottom of the strings and along the middle of the top that make it just perfect. The free gift is this pretty striped pattern in 3 sizes: Lara, Physique, and Isis.
