The Owlery

This post is filled with great deals that will help you achieve this fantastical owl look, so read further for the details! This post is chock full of freebies, so dig in for the free and magical fun my friends! 🦉

Free Gifts @ Fantasy Faire

In this post, I am focusing on freebies you can find at Fantasy Faire 2021. I had to hunt hard to find these, as the event is massive- 22 sims in total! I will break down down some of free gifts I found at the Faire below.

• The gorgeous owl mask is a free gift at Spyralle’s booth. Grab this little guy for 0L on the wall. This was a hard one to find, but it is so beautiful and intricate. What an amazing gift!
• This beautiful hairstyle is a free gift at Firelight’s shop at the Faire. This hair is so cool, because it changes colour every minute to a different natural tone! There is also a free men’s hair gift in their booth!
• The amazing shimmer on my body is a generous free gift from Ghoul. Just enter into their store at Valhalla and grab this gift in the middle of their display. This crystal shimmer is a materials applier that works on Legacy and Maitreya bodies only, as well as Lelutka Evolution heads. This applier can be used on Male and Female avatars.

•  Belle Epoque has a set of nails hidden in an object in their store at the Faire for free. Click the statue for the hint, and go hunt for it! The prize is a beautiful set of purple nails that work on Legacy and Maitreya bodies.

The Language of the Birds

Another way to hunt down some great deals at Fantasy Faire is to participate in their “Language of the Birds” hunt quest. Please read Juli’s post here to find out more details about how to play the Fantasy Faire Quest Hunt. By purchasing the quest HUD (it costs 250 L for the basic or 350L for the deluxe*), you are able to participate in the quest. The HUD can be purchased at Fantasy Faire Junction. If you solve the quest, you will receive a reward in the form of a bunch of gifts from various Fantasy Faire designers. The quest gift I am showing today is a set of beautiful floral horns made by EscalateD. These look like little floral branches that a little bird would stop to rest on!

The Quest hunt and the free gifts will be available until May 9th, the closing day of Fantasy Faire.

Other Freebies and Offers

My look today is packed with additional freebies and offers from various places around the grid, so here are some more offers I am showing off today:

• LSR currently has a 300L credit gift for all LSR group members. The group costs 99L to join. I bought this amazing dress I’ve had my eyes on for a while now. It’s called Yanikha Dress and it comes in 3 textured patterns. I purchased the dress in black and it was completely covered by the credit gift! The dress fits Legacy, Maitreya, Isis, Freya, and Hourglass. The 300L credit is only available until May 7th, so go get it quickly!
•  The rings I am wearing are a free gift at OVH that fit Legacy and Maitreya bodies. The group is free to join; just click the board and these lovely rings are yours! They include a HUD that allows you to change the colours of the metals and colours of the gems on the rings.
• My blue fantasy skin is a free group gift at Lumae. This skin is made for Lelutka Evolution heads and you can get it for free at their store as a group gift. This skin is BOM and it fits Legacy, Maitreya, Slink and Belleza bodies. The Lumae group is free to join.

Enjoy, FabFree!

Prints Charming

I remember there was a period of time where I had relegated animal prints to the dustbin.  I would have nothing to do with them.  No cheetah!  No Giraffe! No Brown Cow!  (hehehe) Now as the years have passed a bit, I can really get behind a pattern that is a.) colourful and madcap and b.) animal-inspired.  You won’t catch me in a traditional animal print for the most part, but this?  Bring it on!

Back to Belle Époque

Belle Époque has always been one of my favourite spots for clothing, for as long as I can remember.  The designer and owner, Janire Coba, is completely generous with group gifts too, making this a must stay in group for me!  The latest gift is this super cool dress that is a bit of a throwback while also being thoroughly modern.  To get it, join the group for just 10L and then click on the vendor.  There are a bunch of other fantastic gifts for you while you’re at it.  Oh, and since we’re at Belle Époque, you may as well pick up the latest FabFree group gift – which is this sweet ring (sized for Maitreya) that comes in 6 different colours, all changeable via HUD.  Of course, the FabFree group is FREE to join, making this little bauble entirely free.

Dress Sizes

• Maitreya
• Legacy

I think this calls for some new wave music and a tequila sunrise!

I don’t know, it’s a mood!

Beautiful Equality

I’ve been so busy the last week that I barely got a moment to pause to acknowledge International Women’s Day.  It’s one of those days that (in North America, at the very least) kind of goes by without much pomp and circumstance, as we nod thoroughly about how women are important and make the world go round.   I know that in some places, Women’s Day is celebrated with flowers, poems and other lovely things.  I’m the kind of person who likes to make things just a little more special than a nod and prefunctory fist shake to the patriarchy (or you know, whatever), so though the struggle of women is rather important, we can also acknowledge it by strewing flowers and being sweet.  I guess what I’m trying to say is, stomp out inequality, but make it fashion!

Belle

I believe they’re on the same wavelength as I am over at Belle Époque right now.  This insanely gorgeous dress is a new group gift put out to celebrate all the women out there, no matter what it is they do to help make the world a better place.  This dress had me gasping in glee when I put it on – I mean… come ON!  Check out the flowers!  The train! The colour!  Glorious!  Get yours and start flouncing about by joining the Belle Époque group for 10L and clicking on the vendor (there are other lovely gifts there too – including a new FabFree gift!).  This lovely gown comes sized for Maitreya bodies.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go stare at myself a bit longer.

All the Blossoms

In the cold depths of January, all I can really think of is a bit of sunshine and warmth.  It’s been grey in my part of the world for the past forever weeks, and so the thought of sunshine and delicate cherry blossoms warms my insides a bit.  It’s all I can think of!

Blossoms

Apple Blossom just put out a new group gift for members of the Second Life Frees and Offers group (SLFO)! The group is free to join, and with it you can access to lots of quite lovely gifts.  There are two different versions of this dress available for members – this one I’ve got on as well as a plain pink one.  You can also wear it with or without sleeves, if that’s your thang!  It’s sexy and cute all at the same time, which makes me one happy camper.

Sizes

• Freya
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• Perky

Belle

Belle Époque have also put a new free gift out for members of the SLFO group:  a lovely set of bento nails.  They come in some really cool holographic-esque colours, and I think you can make them work with loads of different looks.  They come rigged for Maitreya and Legacy hands.  Again, this group is free to join, making these nails entirely free!

I’m not going back to the cold!  NEVAHHHH!
