My sale shopping over the weekend was… excessive. It’s pretty much summer for me all year round in SL, and this time of year everyone else turns to summer too. It’s a rough time for my wallet! At least it was all on sale, right? My overindulgence is not the point here though. What is, you ask? My fabulous dress, that’s what!
Tiffany
I stopped by Tiffany Designs and was immediately greeted upon landing by a new free subscribo gift! But that’s not what I’m wearing today. Then I walked inside and followed the sign to “group gifts” (who wouldn’t?). There are two groups with separate free gifts, one is paid and the other is free to join. But that’s still not what I’m wearing today. Because then, dear reader, I wandered upstairs. Even MORE free gifts! This time in the way of additional free gifts for both the freeand paid store groups, free lucky boards (again, some for each group), and freegifts for the various shopping groups that you see around the grid. Yeah, I changed my mind on what to wear a few times. Tiffany Designs, to me, means gorgeous gowns but there’s really so much more. I finally settled on this sexy slinky little slip dress and I have no regrets. It’s the freegift for the Maitreya Gifts, Sales & News group which is freeto join.

The Sales
I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention some of the gorgeous sale items I’m wearing as well. You know it’s gonna be a good time when both Deetalez and Stealthic got in on the weekend sale action. And you’re in luck because these luxurious locks are still on sale at Stealthic, so get ’em while you can!

My looks have been all over the place lately. It’s just so fun to play dress up and there are creators making gorgeous things in all different styles, what’s a girl to do? Especially when there’s so much prettiness about for free!
Fashion MOGUL
My first stop was MOGUL. All I had to do was join the free update group and then claim the three free group gifts on the wall by the entrance! I just love these jeans, so sexy and fun. The gift is this “rose” color and includes sizes for:
Freya
Legacy
Lara
Kupra
Hourglass
I think that they look great with a simple cropped tank top, but I bet you can style them much better than I did.
Poser
What a fantastic name for a store – Unholy Duality. If you’re a poser like me then you’re going to love this one. Once your find yourself at Unholy Duality you’ll just need to join the free group and take your pick from the free group gifts on the wall. In this case you’ll be getting poses. Do I show poses too much? I realize that people who don’t photograph and/or blog won’t be into them really, but I just can’t get enough poses. Hopefully you feel the same way!
I guess that’s it for now. ‘Till next time. ❤

Sunday evening is looming at me, my dear friends. Do you get that Sunday night feeling? The niggling feeling that Monday is coming and you forgot to do your homework or something like that. I get it pretty acutely these days, so I’m eschewing reality with a firm hand again, and playing dress up, as per usual. I’ve got some gorgeous freeitems to show you tonight, so I’m sure your icky Sunday night feeling will also be staved off for at least a little while.

I’m hanging out in the potting shed (aka the she-shed) again, today I’m musing about the ephemeral nature of all things. Ooh, what a cheerful subject you chose today Aline! I know, I know. I’ll try not to get too melodramatic. We are all residents of a virtual world where it seems that few things are constant, except for a few of the things we’ve known since the beginning of our Second Lives! I think that The Wash Cart Sale is one of those things that has always been around and heralds the changing of the seasons with a rare constancy. Sadly, they’ve decided that this is the last round, as all good things must eventually come to an end, so we wish them all the very best, and a very giant thank you for the years of enjoyment they’ve provided!
Poème du Printemps
As I made my rounds through the maze of The Wash, my eye alighted ever so delicately on the offerings from one of our faves here at FabFree. The lovely Elysiane of Poème has put together some very pretty and colourful outfits that you can use for romping about, or for lounging around your skybox. The top and shorts set costs only 25L (holy deal!) and the lovely matching sandals (sized for Belleza, Maitreya, Legacy and Slink) are also a mere 25L. You’ll also find a sweet freegift at the Poème display. How sweet is that?

Sequel are also participating in The Wash Cart Sale, and their display is where you’ll find this pretty potted tulip for just 25L, as well as the lovely matching side table (perfect for a spring refresh of your space) for just 50L. There are a bunch of different colours to choose from for both items, so you can surely find something that fits perfectly in your space.
The Wash Event is running until April 7th, then everything will go poof for good.
I’m not usually a massive fan of animal prints. It may have something to do with watching endless episodes of SCTV and Edith Prickley when I was young (holy Canadian reference). However, once in a while I come across something that is cute, wearable and maybe gives me a bit of jungle fever! Or…you know…something like that!
Feeling Free
There’s a new addition to the insanely extensive and generous piles of freegoodies at The Free Dove! Reed has brought this lovely animal print minidress (there are also some solid colours and florals in the HUD), as well as the necklace and shoes you see in my photo. They all go really well together, which inspired me to get it all on and have a night on the town. To get yours (and the bajillion other lovely freebiesat The Free Dove), just join their freegroup and click on the boxes on Reed’s table. Couldn’t be easier!

“All that we see or seem, is but a dream within a dream.” ~Edgar Allan Poe
I’m fairly fickle on the ideas of dreams and their meaning, though I admittedly spend a decent amount of time daydreaming and often have vivid dreams when I sleep. I suppose in a way we all get to live a dream we create here in Second Life. So here’s to all the dreamers out there, I hope only the good dreams come true. For now, I can help with some dreamy free and inexpensive finds!
CryBunBun
Only in Second Life would I dream of being this cute in a leather and lace bra and panty set. Leather does not generally scream “delicate underthings” to me, but it sure does look gorgeous. The set I have on is a free gift at CryBunBun aptly named “Mercy.” It comes in this “moon” black version shown, and a “sun” white. No group is needed for this cute freebie. It may however only be available for a limited time!
To go with my afore mentioned delicate underthings, I picked up an equally gorgeous necklace set at Supernatural. It was news to me that they have an entire wall of 75 linden fatpacks. The packs are mostly jewelry, however there are some accessories as well. I am wearing part of the Heidi set. This particular set comes in gold and silver, each with several jewel color choices. The sets have 3 necklaces that can be worn together. What I have on are 2 of the 3 in the silver and black set. I took a snap of the wall of 75 linden goodness at Supernatural. There’s so much to choose from, you’re bound to find something you like.
Mister Razzor
Finally, if you’re on the hunt for new ink, which I always am, Mister Razzor has three female tattoos for just 40 linden each. The tattoo I am wearing is a full body tattoo called “Bella.” This tattoo comes in Omega appliers and BOM/Classic System Layers. The BOM layers, and appliers give the option of full or 75% opacity. No group is needed for the 40 linden price.
It’s time for an anniversary round of Access! You know what that means, right Fab Peeps? It means that you’re about to have an inventory filled to the brim with new boxes for you to open up. Trust me, you won’t want to leave these ones languishing in a folder, because they’re all so awesome!
Have you got Access?
You’ll be shocked by how many boxes there actually are to pick up at Access this time around. You’ll need to join their freegroup in order to *access* all the gifts (see what I did there?). It may be busy for a while, but there are two sims for your convenience, HERE and HERE. Here’s what I found:

There’s a whole wonderfully weird wild world out there and I’m proud to be living in it, even when things get heavy. To some the crowded city with its miles of pavement might seem bleak. I find the vast concrete jungle to be full of art and adventure, especially when I’ve got my partner in all things by my side. Clothing being an excellent form of artful expression; my corset top and his vest from BYRNE spoke loud of love as we spent the evening together just wandering the streets and exploring the underground of Tokyo Windhill City.
BYRNE – Male & Female Group Gifts
The sleeveless shirt Blue is wearing and the corseted top I have on are both free September group gifts at BYRNE. I’ve added the vendor photos for these gifts below so you can get a good look at the vibrant color and pop-art-like textures. Both gifts come in a blue version as well as a purple. To get your copy of these fantastic free gifts, head over to BYRNE and join the in-world group. Then you can grab both gifts from the group notices.
The sweet pose Blue and I are in is a free group gift at e.posEd. The e.posed group is free to join. This e.posEd gift comes with the individual poses, as well as a pose-ball set.
