Hey there, Fab Fam! I can’t believe how frickin’ HOT it is here in the real world! I need some ocean breezes asap! So I am talking it to the beaches on the Grid. And if I’m heading for the beach, I need a new swim suit, right?
Luckily, I found the super cute “Milla” bikini from Aloha at the Avatar Fair, a new-to-me group and sale/event. The Avatar Fair Group is free to join and there a free gift at almost every booth! An extra nice thing is this suit comes with a HUD for 20 colors/patterns for the top and the bottom. So go grab your new suits and let’s hit the beach!
Good Monday, Fabulous Readers. I hope this new week finds you all healthy and happy. I am starting my week out here on the beach so at least the beginnings are going to be good.
I had planned to show this shirt from Starlight Apparel as a hunt prize last week before real life got it’s teeth on me. But then I saw that the designer has also offers the exact same shirt as a free giftat the Second Life 20th Birthday Shop and Hop. So, if you don’t feel like hunting… just head down to Starlight Apparel in the Zinnia SIM and pick it up.
Well, hello again, Monday! And welcome to the week, Fab Fam! I hope all the Moms out there had a lovely Mother’s Day. And now back to the blogging and hunting and freebie finding.
I spent my weekend at the Beach hunting down some awesome items in the “Beach, Please” Hunt. There are a ton of seashells hidden all over Grumble’s beach and each one has a hunt prize in it ranging from 0L to 25L. My new suit was at the higher end of the range at 25L per piece but it was too cute to resist. This is the “Peaches” two piece suit from ~GBD~. It comes with a HUD to pick one of 14 patterns each one as fresh and summery as the next. I also grabbed this straw “Beach Bag” from ~GBD~ for just a 5L shell. The bag comes with 6 hold animations and a decor bag that’s 6 LI.
I think I’m ready to hit the beach!

The “Beach, Please” Hunt runs until May 31st so you have a bit of time to go find all those shells full of goodies!
Hey FabFam! Happy Monday to you all! No Monday blues here only sunshine and waterfalls and glorious stretches of beaches. I may be a little jealous of Kerydwyn as I sent her off on this assignment.
I wanted to put together a sweet beachy look for mostly freetoday and boy did our girl get after it. Kerydwyn’s white fringed beach dress, “Jenny” is a 3L hunt prize from Butterfies~N~Roses at the Magical Spring Faire and Hunt put on by Harambee Hunts. Most booths at the faire have a little wooden unicorn that holds a 3L prize but many booths also have freegifts so be on the look out. Jenny comes with both the dress and a matching bikini. There is a second unicorn holding a black version too!

So there you have it! A whole beach day day for mostly free! But be quick my Fabulous dears, the Magical Spring Faire and hunt only runs until May 10th so hurry hurry!
As you guys know by now, I am all about the bohemian or the pink. Anything both pink and bohemian, bonus points! So I absolutely loved this skirt from Cremosas, and the fact that it only cost me 10L made it that much sweeter, if possible!
I wore it down to the beach and did some yoga and meditating, it was so peaceful. I really needed that and I felt so much better afterwards! It is available in a lot of fun colors and it fits:

Hey FabFree. This afternoon I am enjoying a typical north country Spring. I.E. It’s cold and rainy. Really coooold and rainy. Which of course, makes me think of the beach with it’s warm sands and gentle waves and soft breezes. That’s logical… right?! Oh well, it’s Juli logic! Plus, while I was at the Miix Event I found a super cute little free swim suit so maybe I had the beach on my mind already.
As Aline told you here, the Miix Event is full of free gifts right now. Like this awesome two piece suit from Impact. This is the “Mellisa Bikini” and it’s one of those free gifts. You get a HUD with ten colors for the shorts and fourteen colors for the top. There are so many cute patterns and colors and it all so marvelously mix and match… I had a hard time figuring out what to wear! Such a good problem to have, am I right?!

While I was wandering round picking up freebies and group gifts and all, I stopped in at Mina Hair and got a good surprise. This gorgeous hair style was up as a freegift for the Second Life Frees & Offers group. You can join the SLF&O group for free and pick this and tons of other gifts across the Grid. This style, “Alexa” comes with the “Essentials” color HUD giving you a nice range of natural colors from white to blonde to brunet to deep black. I do love getting such great quality hair for my hair obsession. I don’t know how long this style will be offered for the SLF&O group or even how long it’s been up… but if you want to add it to your hair obsession hurry over and pick it up.

Spending my Saturdays in, on, or around the water has become my summer go-to. When it’s this hot and sunny out the waves are hard to resist, especially when Blue is able to join me for a day of splashing around in the waves and collecting shells. It’s also really hard to resist an opportunity to wear this cute as heck bikini. I’m also really digging the retro vibe Blue’s swim trunks have. Keep reading and I’ll tell you all about this swimwear, and how to get my bikini, his trunks, and this cute couples pose for next to nothing!
Sass
I would have never guess I’d encounter a sloth print bikini that is as adorable as this one, yet here we are! This sloth bikini is a free group gift at Sass. Right now the Sass group is just 10 linden to join, making this bikini one steal of a deal. It comes in sizes for several mesh bodies with the single sloth print shown.
These blue and white swim shorts by Brocade Tiger are a dollarbie Beached Bunny Hunt prize. I love the pattern on these as well. The Beached Bunny Hunt will run through the end of the month so there’s still time to snag this cool men’s swimsuit. There’s also a matching swimsuit for the ladies included. I’ve added the vendor ad below so you can see both suits. So really, you’re getting two prizes for your 1 linden!
Hunt Hint: Careful, he bites!
Male Swimsuit Sizes Included: Signature (Geralt, Gianni), Aesthetic, Slink, TMP, Belleza Jake, Standard Mesh (s-L)
This sweet beachy pose complete with seashell prop is a free group gift at La Vie en Pose by SamPoses. The gift includes the pose in a stand which gives you the ability to adjust the pose the same way you would in furniture. The pose is called Sea Sound and you can get your copy by heading over to the La Vie en Pose event and stopping by the SamPoses booth. You’ll need to join the La Vie en Pose event group as well. It is free to join. Then just click the gift box while wearing your group tag.
Do you ever have one of those daydreams where you hear, smell, and feel the dream rather than just see it in your mind? I have those sort of daydreams about the ocean. In the moment I can hear the sea birds, and the rush of the waves, smell that unmistakable salty sea air, feel the wet sand beneath my feet, and the warm sun on my skin. Thank goodness for Second Life where beach-life is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all year long!
Beauty Factory
Speaking of beach-life, I picked up this new bikini at Beauty Factory recently. It’s one of their most recent group gifts, and it comes in several colors and sizes. Not only that, did you know that Beauty Factory has a room of group gifts? That’s right I said room. There is a one time join fee of 99 linden for the Beauty Factory group, however I think the number of group gifts available more than makes up for it. You’ll find the group gift room at Beauty Factory in one of the smaller buildings outside the main building. Happy Shopping!
I’m protesting today, FabFree! It can not be almost Fall. I refuse to believe it because it’s so freakin’ HOT here! I need a beach break just for the cool breezes and splashy waves.
Beach Break
I am well prepared for my beach break with the latest Group Gift from SilenceIllusion Store. This is the “Summer Flower” two piece suit and it’s free for us Group members. Big bonus… the group is free to join! while you’re picking up your new suit be sure to check out the other available group gift.
