FF St Patty's hunt Emerald Couture_001

I missed all of the partying yesterday evening. I found this cache of Irish Whiskey sitting there so lonely with no one watching over all of it. What’s a girl to do? Luckily I found an empty stein and set forth on tasting said whiskey. Guess I might have done a wee bit less swilling and more tasting. At least I look perfectly attired in a shade of green (and it’s not the color of my face!).

More from the Hunt

The FabFree St. Patty’s Hunt is running until March 31st so you have time to pick up any items you may have missed. I picked up this cute casual dress at Emerald Couture. It’s the Chun dress with a green texture on white that is reminiscent of the Blue Willow china pattern. It’s not the usual St. Patty’s day textures making it a dress you can wear at any time of the year. The package includes matching shoes making it a no-brainer for me. Some days I despise trying to match shoes. Oh, the best part is that it’s free!

Feeling Pink

CMH Lindy 1_002_001

Nothing like a walk along the cliffs on a hazy morning to get your blood flowing. I even made friends with a fox! He said, “Oh, you’re a fox of the human kind, aren’t you?” How could I not like him? I bet he doesn’t get all kinds of prizes and gifts like I do. I should be quiet or the next thing I know he’ll be making himself an avatar for SL. This month I’ve indulged in a few of the grid-wide hunts. Today I’m bragging about the pictured dress and shoes I found on the Cheeky Monkey’s “Hollywood Glamour Hunt”.

In the Abstract Pink

My dress evokes spring. The colors remind me of beautiful tulips.  The Pink Silk Shimmering dress & thong comes from the Charity Shop at Harambee Gwassi. I love the abstract texture on this stylish dress. My Ifanna shoes from Lindy Modern & Retro Shoes are not an exact match but the patterns gave me the same vibe. And each item is only $3L! All of the monies raised for this hunt benefit Harambee – Gwassi.

Hotter Than Hades

Kaithleen LB prize_002_001

Many of you are buried under massive amounts of snow but here in the South it’s hot. Wearing a coat or jacket is out of the question as we Southern ladies don’t want to perspire or even worse, sweat! Layers are fine for the night since you may feel a tiny bit of a chill. The heat is on here! Time to spruce up the yard, clean the pool, and boil a huge pot of crawfish and all the fixings. Yum!

More Gifts For Groups

Don’t know about you but I love getting gifts. Being in the FabFree group affords you the opportunity to try products from a variety of designers. Of course it is free to join. If you follow this blog you already know that we are bursting at the seams with FabFree group gifts. The awesome pair of heels I’m wearing are one of the gifts you can find by traipsing over to Yokana (aka YK). Activate your Fabfree tag, click on the vendor and the free fatpack is yours. Included is a hud with 30 texture change options.

Sizes

  • GenX
  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Reborn

I recently mentioned that I’d joined the store group at Badgyals. Today I’m wearing the Gold Hoop earrings group gift. Simply join the free Badgyals group and pick up the gifts there. The earrings come in gold and silver. I love the size of these. They say retro to me but are also currently in style. As it’s said, “Everything old is new again.” Sighs, wish it worked for my tired old real life body.

Have a super day gang!

Jungle Peace

Belle Epoque NYH #2 002_001

I’m searching for peace in a jungle. Not sure I can find peace there but I know I can find solitude. It probably won’t be quiet either, come to think of it. Why the hell am I here? It’s not like I’m hunting down Tarzan or anything like that. Somehow it made sense for a brief moment. While many of you are tightly held in the grip of frigid winter weather going to a jungle sounds like a good plan. I’ve never heard of anyone freezing in a jungle. Have you?

It’s a New Year

Belle Epoque is at it again with another store hunt. That’s always great news. You don’t need the store group to participate in the New Year’s Hunt and each item costs $10L. I’ve got the totally stunning Jemina dress (#2 on the hunt key below) on today. If you’re a regular reader you know that I love animal prints. While I didn’t grab every item on the hunt this one called out to me. I’m just happy the dress ties are done already. Otherwise I’d have to be a contortionist to tie them all. Maybe searching for Tarzan isn’t such a bad plan. I bet Jane never wore a dress like this. Anyhoo, Jemina is sized for Ebody, Legacy, and Maitreya.

I’ve included a hunt key below so you can see what the prizes are.

Belle Epoque New Year Hunt #NYH Key

I Got New Shoes Too!

The other day one of our FabFree members put out a call in group chat for folks to slap the MM boards & check the lucky letters at Tooty Fruity. It was a fruitful trip as I slapped them all and got several cool items from both after joining the free group. I’m wearing one of the items today; the Zori heels. They fit Belleza, Legacy, & Maitreya. Included is an eight texture/color change hud.

That’s it for now dear readers!

Hi There Bud!

Dora Telsiope_003_001

I hope your new year is treating you kindly. I have had one minor disaster after another since January 1st! But I’m still kicking in spite of wanting to kick something or someone. Let me give you an example. I somehow locked my cell phone and couldn’t remember my pin, I drove to the local cell phone provider’s store. I explained to the chick at the counter what had happened. Her response was “You need to call Samsung.” This was followed by me exclaiming loudly, “What part of this do you not understand? I can’t use my phone at all now.” And so it went until her co-worker told her to call Samsung on the landline and let me talk to someone. Thank you for having someone with a brain that works cell phone carrier.

Supa-Sexy at a Great Price!

I can always count on something daring or delectable from Telsiope’s Couture. I quickly became a fan after learning about the store in a FabFree hunt. The latest free FabFree group gift is the Doro outfit. It reminded me of a really cool biker chick look. The revealing top and tight pants fit me like a glove. It might be a wee bit too chilly to ride a bike while wearing Doro. I don’t care because I look super fabulous in it and so will you! Doro is sized for: Belleza Freya, Maitreya, SLink Hourglass, and Legacy. Breaking news from the store: Sitlan placed a “booty win” on the third floor. Bring or teleport four of your friends with you and have a seat to get the “booty”; which is currently the Alice dress.

A couple of days ago I wandered over to Pure Poison and joined the store group. It is free to join for now, There are oodles of group gifts for you to grab. It’s another one of the long-lived stores in SL that has evolved over the years. Once you join the Pure Poison group you can pick up all of the group gifts. Your haul will include tons of jewelry, several pair of shoes, and one set each of lingerie and a bikini. Today I’m wearing the Boho Time Necklace.

On to the weekend fab readers!

xoxo,
Cre

Counting Down

Foxton Berlin G&D Heels_001

Can you believe this year is nearly over and done with? When I realized this it was time to take a break from unpacking and reorganizing ye ole inventory. Traipsing around the grid scooping up all the goodies out there has worn this old gal out. I really can’t complain because I love doing it.

Get Thee to Cosmopolitan Now!!!

Cosmopolitan designers are once again spoiling us with tons of gifts. You do need to join the free Cosmopolitan Club & Lounge group. The start clicking on all of the lovely baubles hanging on the tree near the entrance. I picked up all of them, of course! I don’t know how much longer the gifts will be available so scoot over there if you want them.

Today I’m relaxing in this cute number from a new to me designer, Foxton. The Berlin outfit comes with a color/texture change hud that lets you change the shirt, skirt, belt, top, and shorts.  The styling is trendy and easy-going. You’ll love wearing this one. It is an all-in-one outfit though it looks like it has several pieces. The hud lets you pick from the following body sizes: Ebody, Legacy, & Maitreya.

My sandals are also a Cosmopolitan Advent gift from G&D. The Namika Sandals are tres chic! They are fitted for Belleza, Ebody, Legacy, Maitreya, and SLink. A fatpack hud containing beaucoup colors comes with the sandals. Another great score!

Don’t miss this last chance to get all the Cosmopolitan gifts.

TTFN,

Give Me Anything But Pumpkin Spice

Bold Llama Hate Pumpkin Spice 2_001

Here’s a Sunday quickie to brighten your day. Do you remember Aline’s post about pumpkin spice?  I found an answer to her post at The Bold Llama while indulging in a bit of hunting, Evil Bunny Productions The Jerky Turkey 12 Hunt is currently running until November 30th, There are 48 stops on the hunt and the prizes are pretty cool. You’re searching for an orange feather. Pay $1L to get the item at each store. I had a lot of fun doing the hunt and I hope you do also.

Keep My Pumpkins & Spice Separate, Please

There are enough people in the world who love pumpkin spice so they don’t need me. I recently accidentally bought a bottle of pumpkin spice coffee creamer thinking it was it was peppermint mocha. Hey! the bottle looked the same. Should have worn my glasses & read the label. I know that it’s been a huge hit since someone decided to put it into coffee. Someone can have my share.

I got so excited when I saw this tee shirt was a hunt prize! It proclaims to the world that I am not in that number. The Bold Llama has the I Hate Pumpkin Spice tank top. Perfect! The texture is another awesome piece of graphic art. I have acquired quite a few tees created by Mikki McLain, over the years and I love them all. To me they let me show my thoughts & feelings. I always have fun wearing one of these.

A Night on the Town

Belle Epoque Anniversary hunt 3_001

It’s time for a fancy night off. Time to out on something dressy and head out into the night. My mystery date has sent a car to pick me up. Looks classy to me. I’m ready.

Belle Epoque Hunt

The Belle Epoque 7th Anniversary Hunt runs until the 30th of November; you still have time to hunt. The best part of this hunt is that everything is free, There are cupcakes scattered around the store. Find one and you’ve got a new gift! Read more about the hunt in Aline’s post. I picked up most of the hunt gifts but today I’m showing you the Angie dress. This lovely frock shows some skin but you’re still covered. It comes in this lovely shade of purple. A great outfit for a night out. Angie is sized for Ebody, Legacy, Maitreya, Juicy & Perky.

While hunting I also picked these cute earrings by Arkivet – the Strawberry Snail earrings. Aren’t they adorable? I’ll have to wear them to the next snail race! You can also see the Hiral eyeshadow and Daffodil lashes I’m wearing.  I do feel festive.

You folks have fun while I figure out how to get back to regular lashes! HA!

Finding Fall

Max Magic FF FLH 1_001

Yay! Friday is here! Autumn is falling upon us down here in the southern U.S. The gods of weather have decided to send some arctic winds  & cold swooping down upon us. I guess that means bikini  beach days are over. I am so happy I can keep beaching it in SL, I also found this group of goats. I wonder if they know yoga?

A Walk in the Orchard

After doing a bit of hunting I needed a break. I donned my warm comfy outfit and and headed out to find an apple orchard. Luckily Max Magic has this great casual ensemble you can pick up on the FabFree Fallen Leaves & Frost Hunt for a total of $10L ($5L each for top and jeans). There is a matching outfit for the guys also. Drag your man along with you.

The patchwork on the jeans makes me think of colder days. And the cropped hoodie is too cute with a texture of a cauldron and the words “Leaky Cauldron” on the front. There are huds for the top & jeans.

Sizes:

Women

  • Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus
  • Maitreya Lara
  • SLink Physique & Hourglass

Male

  • Belleza Jake

Beach Day! Yay!

Entice Top, shirtsm nails 2 FF FLH 8_001

Since I got less sleep instead of an extra hour I declared today a beach day! I landed at Kanaloa Surf Beach where you can stroll along a beautiful stretch of beach while enjoying the scenic vistas, go surfing or just hang out. I recommend a visit here if you need to hear the waves crashing. Luckily I found a perfect outfit to wear at one the FabFree Fallen Leaves & Frost Hunt stores.

I Was Enticed While Hunting

If you haven’t visited any of the stops on the FabFree Fallen Leaves & Frost Hunt you are seriously missing out on some great, inexpensive finds. Entice is participating in the hunt offering the girly-girl looking top and bloomers in the colors Frost & Winterberry. I’m showing the Winterberry set here. But wait – that’s not all you get. There is also the Entice Misty Nails with a 6 texture hud that will work with Maitreya, SLink, Belleza, GenX, Reborn, or omega. The nail textures match the two outfits. All of the pieces are priced at $5L each.

Sizes for Top & Bloomers

  • Maitreya Lara & Petite
  • Meshbody
  • Legacy
  • Slink Hourglass
  • Belleza Freya

No excuses  get out & about. Get your hunt on today!
