Right Here Waiting

Do people even wait by the phone anymore? Or is that anxious, often giddy anticipation felt when waiting for the phone to ring a thing of the past? I never thought I’d be someone who talked about how things used to be, and yet here I am. lol The July group gift at MINIMAL has me in a bit of a nostalgic mood I suppose.

The red phone booth I’m leaned against is MINIMAL’s free group gift for the month of July. It’s impeccably detailed, the door on the front even opens. It also comes in 3 colors/textures: red, black, and wood. I’ve added the vendor ad below so you can see it fully. The MINIMAL group is 250 linden to join, and there are quite a few past group gifts available along side this new one.

Speaking of gifts, did you know that a new round of FaMESHed recently started? I picked up this camo tied tee by Vinyl for free with the FaMESHed event group tag. This cute top comes in the camo pattern shown with several sizes. The FaMESHed group is free to join, and there are a hand-full of gifts to be had.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Slink (Physique, Hourglass), Belleza (Freya, Isis), Signature Alice, MeshBody Legacy

To go with the top from Vinyl I added these cool hoops from Belle Epoque. They are the free Fabulously Free in SL group gift at Belle Epoque. These stylized eye earrings come with a hud that allows you to pick from 4 different metallic color options. The Fab Free group is always free to join. The gifts for the Fab Free group often change however, so don’t wait! Also Sunday July 5th is the last day of Belle Epoque’s store-wide 50% off sale. Happy shopping Fab Free!

Spread the Love

I’m feeling full of love today, Fab Free.  It could be the fact that people have been sending me nice notes, it could be the fact that I am grateful for all my friends and family, or it could be because I think the world needs just a bit more love these days.  I think it’s probably a combination of all these things!  Don’t forget to spread a bit of lovins to everyone around you.  A little goes a long way.

Si Belle

There’s a new group gift at Belle Époque!  This sweet tied t-shirt (sized for Maitreya and Legacy) is all about pride and love.  Y’all know I have a thing for rainbows!  To get it all you have to do is join the Belle Époque group for 10L.  There are lots of gifts to pick up for such a minimal fee, and new ones appear often.  Nice!

What a Drag!

The latest group gift from COCO has also made an appearance, and I adooooore them.  These long, wide-leg pants strike a balance between comfort and fashion, and I’m sure you’ll find loads of outfits to wear them with!  There are two different versions, this striped one, and an animal print version for all you wild ones out there.  To get them,  all you have to do is join the COCO group for free!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• Slink

Always Pr!tty

And lastly today, Pr!tty’s latest group gift was just released and it’s hella cute.  These long tousled locks come in a fatpack of colours, and there’s a free watermelon headband thrown in too!  Join the Pr!tty group for free to access this lovely hairdo, and stay buckled in to the group for their monthly offering.  Adorbs or what?

Hugs all round,

I’m Still Standing

There are some songs that give you a kick in the pants and boost your mood just when you need it the most.  One of those songs for me is “I’m Still Standing” by Elton John.  I’m not even the biggest Elton John fan (throw rocks if you must), but this song makes me pick myself up and get back at it.  Do you have a song that makes you feel that way too?

Stop One

I know there have been a ridiculous amount of events with free gifts recently, and I have literally zero complaints about it!  Yet another has appeared with some free gifts for you – and that’s the 35L Sales May Event.  Not only do they have deeply discounted goods available, but each stall has a free gift for members of their free to join group.  Here’s what I found!

• FREE Jeans by Loordes of London sized for Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Maitreya, Physique, Venus, XXS – L with an Alpha Layer
• FREE Shoes by Doré Papillon Boutique sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink
• FREE Hair by Alantori with an extensive colour HUD

There’s loads more to be had!  The 35L Sales Event is running until May 31st!

Stop 2

Belle Époque recently updated their Fab Free group gift, and I love every single second of it.  I am a massive sucker for anything that has an eye on it.  I may have mentioned it before – but even in RL I wear something with an eye on it at all times!  When Belle Époque advertised this amazing gift I pounced all over it!  As always, the Fab Free Inworld group is always free to join and is a great spot for news, gifts, and friendship!

You’re still standing!  You’ve got this!

Imaginary Tea Party

I think a garden party would be just capital right now.  The kind of party where you get dressed up, have small sandwiches and inexplicably watch some polo.  Of course,  your drink will have a sprig of lavender or rosemary in it, and you’ll insist that one more jam tart would be too many while you eat it anyway.  Perfect!

The Perfect Dress

There’s a new group gift over at Belle Époque!  This dress is a necessary addition to all your garden party dreams.  The long red skirt and poppy-strewn top can be worn separately and look absolutely fetching!  This pretty outfit is sized for Maitreya bodies and to get it, just join the Belle Époque group for 10L.  There are many other gifts to pick up while you’re there (including a Fab Free gift!) so do take a good look around.

More Staying at Home!

The Stay at Home Club rages on, with new gifts continually being added to the very very long list of goodies.  I’m showing off two things today:  pretty FREE lipstick from Alma which comes with appliers for Lelutka, Catwa, Omega and Classic System Layers (when you land, the store is wayyyy behind you at the landing point, turn around and walk to the far side of the shopping area!).  The other gift I’m using is this pose from Unicorn that comes in a pack of three and is of course, completely free.  Awesome!

What do you imagine at your fancy garden party?

The Lady of the Lake

I’m feeling my Lady of the Lake fantasy today.  Something about gently rustling reeds, and the water lapping softly on the sand, and magical beings emanating from the depths of lakes to deliver messages of strength and hope and beauty.  Who knows, whatever that fantasy is, I’m making it come alive with some hunt finds!

Quarantine and Chill

So as the days of quarantine roll on, many designers are stepping up to the plate to keep us all happy and busy.  You have surely seen an upswing in fun activities and games, and Belle Époque are jumping into the fray yet again to do a little quarantine hunt.  Each item on the hunt costs just 10L.  I searched throughout the store for the little stethoscopes and picked up this lovely ombré dress, as well as the flowery headpiece.  There are loads of items to choose from, so you’ll be amused for ages.  This dress (and most items at Belle Époque) is sized for Maitreya bodies.

Enjoy!

Bougainvillea Dreams

I’m thinking about trips I’ve taken in the past to warm, sunny climes.  I’m reminiscing very fondly of trips to Southern Italy, where the bougainvillea trails down the sides of buildings, wreathing every balcony in a rosy glow.  Long walks on the beach in the evening looking at what everyone is wearing, and having as much gelato as my heart desires.  Italia, siete nel mio cuore (Italy, you’re in my heart!).

Hunting for the Love

To keep us occupied in these strange days, many creators are coming up with fun and free ways to keep the hearts of our online community uplifted.  Being stuck at home myself, I highly appreciate the efforts!  Over at Belle Epoque, they’ve brought back one of their previous Valentine hunts!  Just join the Belle Epoque group for 10L, then hunt around the store for all the little roses.  In the past these items were paid, but right now they’re free for group members!  Nice!  I picked up the shoes, top and fan there, though there are loads more pretty items too!  These items are sized for Maitreya bodies.  Oh, and the fan moves back and forth in a sultry little animation.  Cool!

Have Fun Fab Free, and check in with all your friends inworld while you’re at it!

Babbling Brook

Winter is ready to go to bed and I am fed up being stuck inside, so…….

What’s better than finding a new spring dress and finding a babbling brook and a really classic bridge to lie on and think of better things to come, feeling the warmth of the sun on your back and looking forward to better times.

Poking about…

Belle Epoque has a lovely little blue dress on the group wall for all of you, all you need to do is pop by and join the Second Life Frees and offers group (SLFO for short).  It’s free and definitely worth your while to take a moment to drop by and join and grab this little number.  This pretty dress is sized for Maitreya bodies.

Happy International Women’s Day Fab Free!  We’re all about celebrating the strong women in our lives, and all the awesome things they’ve accomplished.  Whether it is about getting the vote, writing a book, making a discovery or just making us laugh and dream, then women make the world a better place.  Who run the world?  Girls!

Eleganza Extravaganza

Oh hunny, how gorgeous is this dress?  It is perfect for celebrating all things fab and female.  The floor-length gown is the newest group gift over at Belle Epoque, and is sized for Maitreya bodies.  Its purple hue and distinctive pleats will have you turning heads in any ballroom you walk into.  Or you know, any park you decide to sashay through on the way to that ballroom!  To get it, just join the Belle Epoque group for 10L and this baby is all yours.  There’s also a 50L sale going on there, with several pieces all in purple discounted for you.

A Hairy Situation

I was over at Moon the other day slapping their Midnight Mania board, when I just happened to peek behind the counter at the group gifts.  Looks like there have been a few updates since I last looked, and I managed to pick up a few new hairdos with my 99L group join.  I’ve got “Zoloft” on and I love the sharp edges of this long bob.  Super cute.  Grab all the hair while you’re there!  It’s most certainly worth it!

Happy Women’s Day!
