Best Dressed Chickens In Town

Best Dressed Chickens In Town

Hey hey Fabs!

Aline looked so bright and shiny in her post about The Snowbound Hunt HERE, and I think that’s because she lives where there’s a real winter and wanted to be bright.  Meanwhile, one time I went to Toronto in the winter and wore color, I stood out like a sore thumb and learned the only acceptable clothing in a big city in winter is black, brown or grey.

So I did

I hunted for some dark wintery items in The Snowbound Hunt, and I’m happy with my purchases, I mean, if I have to be dark and gloomy, at least I’m fluffy!  All of the items in The Snowbound Hunt are 0L-25L and you can see the full gallery at the landing spot, or they are posted on Facebook.  This is some of what I came home with:

  • 25L Sweater by zOOm (sized for: Lara X, Legacy/Perky, Reborn/Waifu)
  • 25L Leggings by zOOm (sized for: Lara X, Legacy, Reborn)
  • 25L Nails by Yuzu (sized for: Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn)
  • 1L Snow Make up by Adore&Abhor (for Evo X)

In case you can’t recognize what I’m holding in my arms, it’s my fluffeh Silkie Chicken from Aardvark.  If you’re in the Aardvark group you can enter a weekly raffle for the fatpack of your choice (which this blog post just reminded me to do)!

The Snowbound Hunt is only open for two weeks, and it closes on January 18th at 12pm SLT.

Peace ☮️

Head Like A Hole

Head Like A Hole

You’re going to get what you deserve

Clearly today I got what I deserved, everything wonderful!  [Red Girl] is one of my favorite stores in SL, the owner is super nice, and their designs are perfectly unisex, non-conformist and punk.  I grabbed a bunch of demos to try, but when I saw this oversized sweatshirt that says “Reject the Mainstream” I knew it was coming home with me.  We got 450L of credit and the shirt was just 275L so it was free for me and I have more to spend.  It comes rigged for:

  • Lara X
  • Legacy
  • Reborn

[Red Girl] has clothes for male and female bodies, in all kinds of sizes, so please do go check them out.  The group is 99L to join, but you’ll get 450L (until November 21st) for that investment.  Also, if you wear the group tag when you shop (and spend L not credit) you’ll get 10% back in credit.

P.S.  My day was only made better by getting to hold my little Porta here in my arm as I took this picture.  Look how angry she is. lol

Fallin’ For You

Fallin' For You

Man this weather is gorgeous.  The humidity is gone (for now) there’s a cool breeze in the air, and I came out to Cerulean Township to enjoy the scenery and the autumn leaves that I can’t get in RL.

Falling

I might be fallin’ for this weather and scenery, but I’m also fallin’ for my new skin.   Today and probably until the next edition of L’Homme magazine is out, I’m wearing the new L’Homme gift from Gloom.  The L’Homme group is free to join, and wearing the tag you get this Omar skin in all the velour and fantasy colors, along with this Reload Tattoo that comes in various transparencies.  A massive, fabulous free gift.  I really love these skins Gloom makes. Don’t miss it!

I wanted to make sure you could see the skin and the tattoo, so I only wore some pants and a hat in the picture.  They are both gifts from the Euphoria store on Marketplace that I’ve blogged a few times, but like to revisit.  They have a bunch of 1L gifts in specific colors, meant to show you the fit and quality.  Other colors are offered at the regular price in the MP store.  The Chase hat comes with or without ears in the dark red color, and the Daniel Cargo pants come in a red camo.  They are rigged for:

  • Jake
  • Gianni
  • Legacy

Last, I’m wearing the latest group gift from LEX, the Screa-a-mau earrings.  The scream face on a cat head, that comes with a fatpack hud, cute.  The LEX group is 100L to join.

 

Peace Out ☮️

Autumn is Calling

Autumn is Calling
Happy Saturday, Fabulous Readers.  Gus and I spent some time stalking the lucky boards over at M&M Style, and I was super happy to win this sweet sleeveless dress for free!

Try Your Luck

The Alianna High/Low Dress from M&M Style Female Clothes features a crisp white sleeveless bodice and an eye-catching asymmetrical skirt with a botanical pattern splashed across a blue background.  A wide belt with a silver buckle emphasizes your waistline.  The gift also includes mesh boots, but I opted to pair the dress with some knee-high boots that I already had in my inventory.  The outfit would look just as amazing with heels!  To pick up a free copy for yourself, head down to the M&M Style store and activate your M&M Style group tag (there’s a 2L$ join fee).  Climb the stairs to the second level, and get comfy on the couch while you wait for your lucky letter to appear.  Twenty-one lucky boards rotate through a variety of prizes, so although it might take a while to win the Alianna dress, I’m sure you will come away with one of the other fabulous prizes up for grabs.

Mesh Sizes:

  • XXSmall
  • Xsmall
  • Small
  • Medium
  • Large
  • Includes alphas for the dress and boots

Golden Locks

I picked up my new silky Leslie hairstyle at Exile for just 50L$ as part of the Fifty Linden Fridays sale, which runs through September 28th.  This half-up hairstyle features soft locks that cascade over your shoulder, and a sleek ponytail that adds lift.  It frames your face beautifully with or without wispy strands.  There are three sizes in the folder for the perfect fit.  You can choose from a FLF Naturals HUD or a 50L Color Melts Pack for just 50L$ each.  The texture HUDs contain five options, plus a styling HUD to arrange your hair just so.

The Leslie hairstyle is versatile enough to pair with casual outfits, yet elegant enough for dressier outfits.  The Alianna dress is ideal for early fall days when the September sun still kisses your shoulders.  I think you’ll love them both.  Until our next post, good luck and happy shopping!

Always Love

Always Love

I’m surrounded by people who wear black clothing 24/7 in both lives.   I mean yeah, I guess it slims you down, and makes you less noticeable, and I get it.  I wore black to my high school reunion, after all 😂.  That being said, I’m really a colorful person.  I remember going to Toronto for the first time in late October, and everyone, I mean EVERYONE was dressed in black, grey and brown.  I stood out like the biggest Floridian sore thumb during that trip in my colorful sweaters 😂.  I’d do it again, too.  Life is too short for all that grey, do they not notice the sky? (don’t roll your eyes at me Aline!)

Color me happy

It’s time for the Pride At Home offerings at the new round of Anthem!  Every Pride, many vendors at Anthem will have a low cost Pride item on offer for 50L.  I snatch up so many fun and colorful clothes I can wear year ’round at this event, and this one was no different.  Look at all this goodness I brought home!

  • 50L Overalls by Miss Chelsea (sized for: Lara X/Petite X, Legacy/Perky, Reborn/Waifu)
  • 50L Fanny Pack by UNA (in black and white sized for: Lara X, Legacy, Reborn/Waifu/Unrigged)
  • 50L Lipstick by Izzie’s (male and female fits in 3 shades, 2 transparencies for Evo X)

Anthem just opened on the 3rd and will be open until June 30th, so there’s plenty of time for you to stop over and get your colorful deals!

The Fox and the Hare

The Fox and the Hare

I really wanted this picture to be so much more, but I couldn’t find a single spot that had foxes and also had a free group where I could rez things.  I spent a whole day looking!  I guess that’s OK, Easter is a bun-bun and chick day afterall, but I was feeling foxy!

Hare, hare!

I just had to blog this outfit I got at The Seasonal Sale Ivy & Blossoms.  It’s by purplemoon and it’s so adorable.  I bought all 4 gifts, but the last gift I couldn’t rez to show you, but I’m going to put the hunt key down at the bottom so you can see it.

  • 25L Dress by purplemoon (with a pastel solid and rainbow hud – sized for: Lara X/Petite X, Legacy/Perky/Bombshell, Reborn/Waifu)
  • 25L Legwarmers by purplemoon (with a pastel solid and rainbow hud – sized for: Lara X, Legacy, Reborn)
  • 15L Bunny Ears by purplemoon (with a pastel solid and rainbow hud, unrigged)

I love the pastel cloud image on this dress, and look it even has a little bunny tail attached!  Too cute.  The car is the egg prize I wasn’t able to rez for you, but oh gosh, this car is so fun and I whipped all over the sandbox in it when I unpacked it.

Bunny Key

All of the prizes at TSS Ivy & Blossoms Egg Hunt are between 0L-25L. Remember, each store participating has one egg hidden in their mainstore, so you’ll have to do a little traveling.  The hunt keys can be found HERE and when you click on a key it will open a LM to the mainstore.  The hunt is on until May 11th!

I’d better go before I bite my own head off.  Enjoy your day!

Peace ☮️

Mellow

Mellow

Everything has come together perfectly for this post!  First, one of my new favorite stores and one of my favorite spots to take blog pictures have come together for a collaboration.  Second, the word ‘mellow’ makes me think of a pizza place in town, and suddenly I had all the perfect gifts to show you in one post.

Mellow Mushroom

Mellow Elie, a new store that launched for Lelu’s 12 Days has opened a satellite store on the Cerulean Township SIM!  Mellow Elie is a new store by the creator of the old SL store called Surf & Co.  I loved this store back in the day, so when I had the opportunity to join Mellow Elie while it was free, I did.  The group is now 250L to join, but you get 15% back on all purchases, and sometimes you can even find coupon codes to use in the future on NCs tucked into some of her packages 😉   To celebrate this satellite store, Mellow Elie put out a group gift that’s only available at the satellite location.  It’s the Always Tee, a new release she had over the weekend.  The owner is the creator of Flagship, the mainstore release sale too!  I paired it with some shorts I bought in that sale.

Next, I have a few mushroom gifts for you!  You know how I love my mushroom hats, and I found one on Marketplace by K R E E P.  This package has a mushroom hat and a mushroom cap, along with a bunch of different shapes (I’m wearing the ‘tall’ hat).  It comes with a fatpack hud and also some DIY textures.  You can buy it on Marketplace for 1L.

Last, my mushroom blush!  This is The Mushy Lady makeup set by [StarlitStrokes].  I won it on one of her lucky chairs for free!  It comes with the blush and eyeshadow in BOM for Evo X maps.  No group is required to play her lucky chairs and there’s a Fab Free gift waiting for you there too 😉

Wrapped Up In Books

Wrapped Up In Books

Ahhhhhhhh the perfect afternoon.  Comfy clothes, a good book, a cat and a coffee, what else could I need?  This is the perfect way to spend a day, and today it’s courtesy of all the free gifts at The Fifty!

Aline showed you some adorable gifts she picked up HERE, and I’m following behind dutifully to show you some of my favorites.  There were so many nice gifts to choose from!  The Fifty Linden Friday group is the one you need to join to bring home all these free gifts, although the group is 1L to join now to keep out spammers.  Look what I came home with (in addition to many many demos 😉 )

  • Free Top by Palette (sized for: Lara X, Legacy/Perky, Reborn/Juicy/Waifu)
  • Free Shorts by REDGIRL (in 2 designs, sized for:  Lara X, Legacy, Reborn)
  • Free Socks by Aurun (Fatpack hud, sized for: Lara X/Maitreya, Legacy, Reborn)
  • Free Glasses by Random Matter (in gold or silver)

The event is large, with lots of room to move, and I didn’t have any lag while I was there, despite it being packed.  They went all out for this 3rd Anniversary!  I sent my alt yesterday and got in without any problems.  You do have until March 20th to visit though.

Into The Great Wide Open

Into The Great Wide Open

Ahhh, exactly what I needed.  A break.  Away.  From everyone.  Who am I kidding?  I need this everyday!  Lucky for me, I know just the place to go to escape, over to Cerulean Township.  It’s gloomy and raining at the moment, but I’ve got a nice spot of sun on the dock where I’ll wait for it to clear up.

Let’s go

I’ll bring you out fishing if you want, but I’ve got a better place in mind, the Alpha event.  It’s celebrating it’s 3rd Anniversary which means it’s loaded up with free gifts for (mostly) male bodies.  There’s some unisex gifts thrown into the mix too.  Today I’m wearing a few gifts I picked up there, which were perfect for my getaway.

  • Free Shirt by GARAZ (in black, sized for: Jake, Legacy, Gianni)
  • Free Pants by ODIREN ( in this terracotta color, sized for: Jake, Legacy/Athletic, Gianni/Davis)
  • Free Hat by Rodex (in black, unrigged)

A shout out to ODIREN for these pants, I dig the corduroy texture and I really appreciate the terracotta color.  Every gift I brought home is so well done and well fitting, you can’t go wrong with a trip to Alpha this round.  This round is open until March 18th, so plenty of time to make your way over, just don’t forget.

Happy Anniversary to this men’s event!

 

Peace Out ☮️

Bad Attitude

Bad Attitude

New year, new me, huh?  Yeah right, Beachy.  It took me a whole 2 days to get back to my old self.  This is why I don’t make resolutions, I don’t like to fail 😛

Favorite things

There’s only 2 more days to finish up the Holiday Shop & Hop, and I’m telling you, some of this stuff you really don’t want to miss!  While I was hopping, I picked up a free gift at Rowers, 300L store credit!  Rowers has clothes for both men and women, so you know I wanted to get this store into a blog post.  You can use the 300L credit in the mainstore only, and it expires on January 31st.  I picked up this shirt for 199L, leaving me some credit to play with.  I love the feisty graphic on this shirt, it screamed my name.  This Ingrid shirt comes sized for:

  • Lara X
  • Legacy/Perky
  • Reborn

If you need the Fab Free spreadsheet for the Shop & Hop you can always find it on the mainpage of the blog, on the right sidebar when it’s open.  I’ll link it for you HERE too.

Adorable

Adorsy makes some adorable clothes and I have to pay better attention to the new releases!  They are giving away a free holiday outfit and a 250L gift card for the holidays and I found so many things I wanted to buy.  The group is 30L to join, minimal cost for the gift.  I ended up deciding on these Jimi jeans, I do adore a good baggy jean.  I especially love these because they have all the zippers and snaps and a color hud for all the adorable bows.  They were 299L so I only needed to add 49L and they came home with me.  They come sized for:

  • Lara X
  • Legacy
  • Reborn

I have zero idea how long the gift card is going to be offered so you’d better get over there quickly.  You know how the gift game goes!
