No Signal

Just because you’re stuck indoors, doesn’t mean you can’t look cute, amirite Fab Fam?  My New Year’s resolution is to be cute as a tiddly and ready to wink whenever and wherever!  (That sentence is up to you to figure out…)

Stay Cozy

Quinnty’s is starting the year off right with a cozy little cropped sweater as a group gift!  It comes with several different texture options (all themed around glitchy computers, something I hope the New Year doesn’t bring me…ahem!).  You can get yours by joining the Quinnty’s group for 50L, then pay the vendor 1L which will be promptly returned to you.

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Hourglass Petite
• Isis
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• Maitreya Petite

Thong Song

I hope my subtitle doesn’t get random songs from the 2000’s in  your head (or maybe I do…), but this cute little sporty thong has me feeling chill and sexy all at once.  It’s the latest group gift from Mug, and comes in 4 different colours to keep you happy.  As with most of Mug’s releases, there are a lot of different sizes and bulges for male or female looks so these really are quite unisex.  To get to the different sizes and options, just use the HUD.   The Mug group is currently 250L to join, and there are several very nice group gifts on the wall there for you.

Sizes

• Maitreya
• Legacy
• Freya
• Kupra

Happy Chillin’!

A Lot to be Getting on With

There are so many events and gift opportunities wrapping up right now, that I’m trying to let you all know about them before they disappear forever.  Here’s one more event that is soon coming to a close, but is well worth the visit: Cosmopolitan!

It’s Tradition!

The Christmas Season isn’t quite done yet (We’re on the 8th Day of Christmas today!), but you never know when gifts (or in this case a tree FULL of gifts) are going to disappear.  Over at Cosmopolitan, their tree still stands tall and is absolutely covered in really wonderful free gifts from quite generous designers.  Here’s what I picked up:

• FREE Dress from Safira sized for Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Maitreya, Legacy & Legacy Perky in both black and flower print
• FREE Hair from No.Match in natural hair tones
• FREE Cupcake by ChicChica (with candle on or off options!)

The word on the street is that the Cosmopolitan tree will be gone on Epiphany (January 6th) so do head over there, join the free group and then click on the little stockings on the tree.

By the way, Pru showed you some of the other gifts you can pick up there too HERE

Optical Illusion

Ok, I know I’ve been doing a lot of dark and Halloweeny, but now and then a pop of colour is needed.  I’m sure some readers out there also long for it, so this post is for you!

Now I’m Free

Did you know that The Free Dove gets updated regularly?  There’s always something new for you at SL’s premier freebie outlet.  The owner and organizer, Dove, works really hard to procure free and fabulous finds for the Second Life community.  You can find all the latest updates listed on their blog HERE.  This striking gown from Tiffany Designs is a new addition, and it really makes me think of those optical illusion books that were so hot in the 90’s.  I can’t even remember what they were called (please don’t let it be “optical illusion books”, because that would be semi-embarrassing).  On the same table, you’ll find a matching jewelry set for free, and a pair of shoes (not pictured) that go with the look perfectly.  To get them, and a bajillion other free items, just join The Free Dove group for free!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis

Je Vois La Vie en Pose

A new round of La Vie en Pose has taken off, and as per usual the designers are spoiling us with free gifts!  Join the La Vie en Pose group for free, and you’ll be able to pick up a free gift from each stall.  There are some really cute poses, and this one from Lyrium is quite different in the fact that it is more of an animation than a pose.  It cycles through a selection of cute movements that are super fun to take pictures of, and are really quite adorable.  There’s lots more!  Head over to La Vie en Pose before October 25th when it all goes aurevoir!

Bye for now!

Playing Dolls

There’s nothing I love more than putting outfits together with bits I find all over the grid.  I think it harkens back to my days of playing Barbie wayyyy back when.  When it comes down to it, at it’s essence, my Second Life experience is all about playing dolls!   I love dress-up, and SL is the perfect place to do it.

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary SaNaRae!  Six years of fun on the grid.  If you head over to the event, and join their free group, you’ll gain access to lots of excellent gifts.  Click on the massive mix tapes at each stall (I love me some old-school tapes!) and you’ll end up with piles of freebies.  Here’s what I’m showing you!

• FREE top by Pink Lemonade sized for Maitreya and Freya (in three different states of dress!)
• FREE Earrings by Madame Noir (comes with a necklace too)
• FREE Pose by Lune

There’s loads more!  Head on over to SaNaRae before it all goes away on October 17th.

Pink Power

A bit of pink here and there (or everywhere) never really goes amiss.  I think the extreme girlishness of it all really just makes me happy.  And really, can you ever have too much pink?

Like a Mouse

The latest group gift from Mouse is what put me in a pink state of mind today!  Isn’t the top and skirt combo oh so cute?  I love every minute of it.  To get your own, just join the Mouse group for free and it’s all yours.  You’ll find several other gifts there as well, freebies and a bunch of lucky boards.  So much fun!

Make Me Feel

Hello again Fab Free’rs, and welcome back to the blog. I just could not resist the opportunity to pair up with the indomitable Love Trill for this post. The MOVE! group gift at ACCESS gave us the perfect opportunity to show off some freebies and some dance moves at the same time. In true friend fashion, we also happen to be twinning in camo shorts from RKKN which are also free at ACCESS. To help pull my look together I added one of the 6 free group gifts at Versov. Watch the video, keep reading for more info, peep the end of the post for full credits, and above all have fun!

ACCESS

Move! put out this fun casual dance as their free ACCESS group gift. Don’t forget you’ll need the ACCESS event group tag to get these gifts. The ACCESS group is free to join. Ladies, you can also pick up these cute camo print shorts by RKKN at ACCESS for free. They come in 3 sizes, Maitreya Lara, Legacy, and Belleza Freya.

Versov 

The Lolitov sneakers I have on are free at Versov. You’ll need the Versov group tag to get them and the other free group gifts. Not to worry though, the group is also free to join. These shoes (like all the gifts) are a full fatpack of colors and include male, female, and unrigged sizes. We’ve shown a few of the other Versov group gifts like the Jumpov sneakers, the Zlatorov heels, and the Sandov slides before. They are all still available.

A Night In

I’ve been feeling indulgent today, feeling the need to drag myself up out of the doldrums quarantine can sometimes bring me to. What better way to self-indulge than to wander through Tres Chic while it’s full of free gifts (thanks to this being an anniversary round)?! Aline gorgeously showed off a few of the generous Tres Chic group gifts in her post “Back in the Day“, and I wanted to share just a few more while they are still available. The Tres Chic group is free to join, just wear the tag and click the gift boxes to get your freebies.

Elven Elder

My lavender trimmed hoodie is the Tres Chic gift by Elven Elder. Purple, and just about every shade thereof, is a favorite color of mine, so this freebie is a need. It comes in the color shown with a few size options. It also comes with a hud that lets you adjust the materials and glossiness of the hoodie.

Sizes Included: Legacy, Belleza (Isis, Freya), Maitreya Lara

BH9

These cool blocky glasses are the free Tres Chic event gift by BH9, they come with clear lenses like shown, and with dark lenses. They are unisex, and can be sized via touch menu.

Life is a Party

Today, I’m setting aside some time to celebrate life in general.  There are so many beautiful things to enjoy, though sometimes we just feel like hiding a bit.  I’m thankful for sunshine, the seeds that I planted starting to sprout, and good ol’ fashioned baked potatoes.  The SL version of me is content with her balloons and ice cream, and I think that’s absolutely perfect.

Dress it Up

There’s a new group gift over at Rosary!  This cute little dress comes in a long and short version, and an HUD exploding with fun colours.  To get it, just join their group for 350L and then head to their Foxcity location.  There are some other group gifts to pick up, and Rosary is always quite good with their monthly gifts, so it’s a great group to stay in!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Maitreya
• Legacy

Celebrate!

Seraphim is currently hosting a “Welcome Back” Event, to celebrate all the members of the SL community who are returning to our beloved game after an absence.  It’s great to see so many residents joining us again!  There are loads of discounted items from your fave designers, and Black Bantam have put out some fun gifts for you to get into the spirit of celebration.  The balloons and ice cream I’ve got in both photos are completely free, all you have to do to get them is join the Seraphim inworld group for free, then click on the box at their booth.  Both gifts come in loads of different colour options, and the ice cream has both a holdable and rezzable version in lots of flavours.   The Welcome Back Event is running until May 6th.

What are you celebrating today?

Almost The Holidays

The weekend is winding down, but I’m just starting to feel festive.  I’ve been thinking about gingerbread and snowflakes and even sparkling lights.  It is time to start tiptoeing towards the magic of the Holiday Season!  Don’t you think?

I’m a Queen

There’s a new group gift at Queenz to help get you in the holiday spirit, or really the spirit of just general awesomeness.  This jumpsuit is so cool and has great asymmetrical cutouts to help you stand out.   The HUD comes with several different colours to suit your fancy!  To get yours, just join the Queenz group for FREE and click on the vendor.  There are a whole pile of gorgeous gifts there, so make sure you pick them all up!

A Bit of Fun

Hey Fab Free!  I’m taking some time for some good old fashioned fun today, because why not!  A girl deserves some fun now and then, right?

K9

So my favourite event on the grid is for sure Kustom 9.  There’s always something fun that I can’t resist there, especially some great gachas.  This month, I found a super awesome one from M.Birdie that I just had to try my luck at.  In just a few pulls I got my top, jeans and shoes (sized for Maitreya), and stuck them all together to make a fun look.  At only 75L a pull, that’s a pretty sweet deal!  (And if you haven’t yet, grab the gifts that we told you about earlier this month by joining their free group!)

Helloooo, Kitty!

I’m sure you’ve heard about the huge Hello Kitty 45th anniversary that’s taking place in SL right now, so I won’t natter on about all the details!  Suffice it to say there are a few prizes to be won, and if you don’t fancy playing games for them, then by all means head over there to collect this fun balloon made by Astralia.  It’s completely free and is lots of fun to carry around with you.

To the Moon

And last, but definitely not least, I’ve got some Moon news for you!  They have updated their midnight mania boards with all sorts of hair goodies.  I got this pretty style by joining the group for 99L then slapping the board.  Only 250 people are needed to reach the goal, and the hair style changes daily, so you never know what you’re going to get!  Head over to Moon and get slapping!

Lots of love,
