Dream a Summer Dream

Sometimes we need to recharge… take a moment to close our eyes and dream. I found the perfect sim for it if you like art and books. You might want to stop by the Arts and Literary Salon where there is book discussions and art displays for you to enjoy.

I took the chance to put together a dreamy summer look while I enjoyed one of the blankets under a charming little tree I found. My look is courtesy of Wicca’s Wardrobe this morning.

First, I picked up the 1L Women’s Stuff Hunt gift that Wicca’s Wardrobe is generously contributing to this hunt as a prize. It is this lovely strawberry dress in all the standard sizes as well as fitmesh, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP. The box also includes two texture patterns of the dress, so you get not only the dress I am showing, but one additional pattern. And only 1L for all of this strawberry goodness!

I was pleased to discover that the August group gift at Wicca’s Wardrobe was a sexy pair of boots that matched the dress quite nicely. These over the knee dragon boots come in standard mesh as well as slink fits. To get them to fit my Maitreya body, I simply removed my feet. They are highly detailed, and there is a male version of the boots out for group members as well. If you are not already a member, the group fee is 50L, but you get access to many past group gifts as well as these fantastic boots, making it well worth your join fee.

I’m off for a nap and a dream. Enjoy your day!

Southern Sophistication

Hello Fab Free! Thanks for stopping by our Fabulous blog today. It seems like already there are so many hunts, events, and gifts to be had for the month of February, it’s so exciting! I was able to put together most of this look using group gifts from MoDanna and ECCO, a hunt prize from More Than Ever, and a wearable demo from Alaskametro. I love this look because it reminds me of some of the style you would see in the Southern U.S. where I am from.

Starting from top to bottom, I picked up this sort of matte red lipstick from Alaskametro on the Marketplace. I thought it matched the red of the boots perfectly. The lipstick applier is a FREE wearable demo from Alaskametro showing the “Fiery” shade in their “Creme Red” lipstick collection. This FREE wearable demo includes a system layer, a Loud Mouth applier, an Omega applier, a Lelutka applier, and a Slink Visage applier.

Next I picked up this almost bolero style necklace for FREE at ECCO with my ECCO group tag. This pretty necklace with heart and bead dangles is the February group gift at ECCO. It includes a color change hud to allow you to customize the color of the cords, beads, metal, and gems of the necklace for high versatility. The ECCO group does have a one time join fee of 200 lindens, however you will not only be able to get the February group gift, but you’ll have instant access to several previous group gifts upon joining the ECCO group.

This sophisticated looking sleek black dress is another group gift, this one from MoDanna. All MoDanna group members can pick up this group gift for 1 linden while wearing their group tag. In addition to purchasing the dress, your 1 linden is converted into 1 linden store credit! The MoDanna group is free to join, and there is usually a group gift each month, not to mention group members earn store credit for their purchases.

Finally, these gorgeous boots! I love the tooled red leather look of these red boots from More Than Ever. The boots are the Walk a Mile in My Shoes Hunt prize from More Than Ever. This hunt is a 10 linden hunt, so you can score these amazing mesh boots for just 10 lindens, all you need to do is find them! You’ll be looking for a black and red shoe hidden in the More Than Ever shop.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

If the Shoe Fits!

The Fab Free Shoe Day is finally here! I am so excited about all the shiny shoes I’ll be adding to my ever-growing collection!! I’ve been oohhing and ahhing over the other posts and plan on spending some time snagging the shoes everyone has found for myself! That said, it just so happens there are 2 hunts going on at Free Dove that include, you guessed it, FREE Shoes! Though you will have to hunt for them, the shoes are absolutely FREE, and you’ll find men’s shoes as well as the ladies shoes I’ll be showing. First, one of the designers participating in a current Free Dove Hunt is Duh!.

You can find both pairs of these cute boots from Duh! at Free Dove, just hunt them down. I promise they aren’t too hard to find. Plus with cute FREE shoes on the line, a little hunting never hurt anyone. Each of these pairs of boots include a matching alpha layer and do not require mesh feet of any kind. While you are at Free Dove and hunting, why stop with these? Iconica also has several hunt items at Free Dove, 5 of which are FREE women’s shoes.

Each of the above pairs of shoes are a FREE hunt prize at Free Dove by Iconica. There are men’s shoes to be found as well, but I’ll be sticking to the shoes for the ladies. The Iconica shoes are not only FREE but several are in exclusive “Free Dove Hunt” colors. The best part about the Iconica Free Dove Hunt collection, is that there are shoes for every occasion from casual to dressy. The shoes on the left require mesh feet, there is a pair for Slink High or Belleza feet included in the box. The boots in the center include a regular alpha layer, and should not be worn with mesh feet. I was able to wear them with my mesh body by adjusting their position a little. The shoes to the right also include 2 versions, one for Slink Mid feet, and one for Belleza.

The best way to end this post in my mind is with dressiest shoes in the bunch. These shoes are also part of Iconica’s hunt items at Free Dove. The party shoes on the left include a version meant to fit Slink High feet and a second version meant to fit Belleza mesh feet. The classy black pumps on the left include a pair meant for Slink High feet only.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Knockers for the Holidays

I cannot get over how many amazing gifts and hunt prizes and holiday goodies are available from all over Second Life this year. This has been one of the most festive holiday seasons I’ve experienced in my many years of being a Second Life resident. The designers have really outdone themselves, which makes this time of year that much more fun for all of us Fab Free’rs! hehehe

Speaking of great holiday gifts, Knockers recently released their December group gift and it’s a must-have! This holiday themed pea-coat is just too cute. I love the little details, and the contrasting lining. Check out the cute little gingerbread man in the pocket too! This is a FREE gift to all group members, and the Knockers group is a one time fee of 150 lindens to join, however there are exclusive monthly gifts.

To go with this great coat, I picked up these fun winter boots from ALB on the Marketplace. The boots are all decked out in pretty holiday fabric, and can be re-sized by clicking each individual boot. There are no “feet” required to wear the boots, and they also include a matching alpha layer. Not only are these boots really cute, they are completely FREE!

Hurry to AMD and get this wicked sexy garter for 25 lindens through the end of the day today.

This is My Costume

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, fall is truly my favorite time of year, and I love October the most. Why? Halloween of course! I am so excited about the fall/Halloween themed goodness I have to share with you.

Just recently the creator of Plastik sent out a wicked awesome gift, or gifts I should say to their subscribo group. In celebration of Halloween, the gift includes a complete outfit, perfect for the holiday. This outfit includes the little black dress that has “This is My Costume” scrawled across it, and the over-the-knee boots. Both the dress and the boots include various size and fit options. The boots come in Maitreya fit, xxs, xs, s, m, and large sizes. The dress includes standard sizing, and fitted mesh, as well as a Maitreya specific fit, a Belleza fit, and a Slink fit. This epic gift also includes a full set of jewelry and accessories, there are 4 rings, a circlet, 2 necklaces, a belly ring, a wrist cuff, wings, horns, several makeup tattoo layers, and a nail polish applier. I want to take a second to tell you about the nail polish. This rich black color has a bright yellow/green under-layer that shows on the underside of the nail. The applier is for Maitreya hands. While you’re checking out the nail polish, take a look at the detail of the jewelry pieces. The top amulet is what dangles from the curved horns, you’ll see 3 of the 4 beautiful rings, and a close-up of the charm hanging from 1 of the 2 necklaces. It’s hard to believe that this incredible gift from Plastik is FREE with no tags needed, just join the subscribo.

Like the lovely fall decor? I think it’s really beautiful and you can pick the full “fall console” set up at Kaerri for just 10 lindens for a limited time. The set is not linked, so you can arrange all or some of the individual pieces any way you like, or keep them in the pre-arranged setup. This mesh set includes the table, mirror, candle, pumpkin & leaves, and vase. To get the set just head over to Kaerri and you’ll find it waiting just outside the main entrance.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

It’s hard to believe that the Cart sale has already  been going strong for two weeks because I keep finding nifty things to show off.  Today it’s a treasure trove of shoes from The Dark Fae! I have to give a special shout out to Dark Fae for stocking their Cart with not one but SIX pairs of boots for the gentlemen!

These are the ‘Hard Working Boots’ in distressed brown. Now, I know they’re men’s boots but I tossed them on anyway to show you. I know, I know… I’m a weirdo.😛

The ladies have a gorgeous pair of shoes on the Cart too. These are the ‘Stompy Shoes’ for SLink Mid feet in white. They also come in pink, green, gothic red and blue! But Corvi Ashdene, owner of The Dark Fae tells me that there is a “ZOMG Fat Pack” that comes with a HUD that will let you change the gem colors, strap colors AND shoe colors that you can purchase at the main store. You can grab the Land Mark for the main store right on the Cart.

Here’s your Taxi to the Shoe- tastic Dark Fae Cart!
