This isn’t the wild west but this outfit made me think of Annie Oakley who sort of paved the way for women to gain prowess with their own shooting skills. One of her more popular quotes (according to google) is: “There are always women who will take men on their own terms. If I were a man I wouldn’t bother to change while there are women like that around.” I had to stop and wonder a moment if she meant that they shouldn’t bother to change clothes… but maybe that is just me being silly 😛
Where to get the Digs
At any rate, you will find this great all-in-one outfit at SA Quartermaster, gun included, for many different mesh bodies. It comes in all one piece so nothing is detachable, and it does not include the boots. You do get a color change hud with four different colors of red, including a camouflage red color. This gift is completely free as part of the Cupid’s Conspiracy Hunt going on right now.

So we have survived Monday, some of us just barely, and are inching toward Christmas at a faster pace than I am mentally, physically, or financially prepared for! Lucky for me and all of us in the Fab Free Second Life community, there are tons of great gifts available so we can look cute and decorate for the Holidays without breaking the bank. I found this cute little rover on the Marketplace for just 10 lindens. I named him Roscoe after my first dog growing up. The little guy was so festive, I couldn’t pass him up. Plus he looks great under my Christmas tree.
The tree is another Marketplace find, and my photos don’t do this dollarbie from a shop called Love justice. It shimmers and sparkles and is really pretty all on its own. Not to mention that I love the slightly gothic element of the spider webs. I left mine as it is, just added a “homemade” tree skirt, but I think it would be fairly easy to dress this tree up even further with your own decorations if you’re so inclined.
Now that my house and my dog are in the holiday spirit, I thought I’d do a little dressing up myself. BYRNE recently sent out a super cute sweater dress to their subscriber members. The dress is a cozy yet sexy off-the-shoulder v-neck, with a subtle swirl pattern that makes me think of the iridescent patterns on bubbles. This FREE gift includes the mesh dress in a white version as well as the black version pictured. Simply join the subscriber at the BYRNE main location and check the notice history to receive this gorgeous gift.
To add some holiday cheer to my outfit, I added this pretty little holiday ribbon from Indulge Temptation. This ribbon is a FREE gift at the current round of Designer Circle. The ribbon is mesh and has re-size scripts for easy fitting. Pretty accessories like this one are a great way to spruce up any outfit for the holidays. No need to join a group for this one, just buy the gift for zero lindens.
Sure, you could have a June wedding – but winter is coming. And for me there is something magical about the idea of a white wedding. And even if you aren’t planning a winter wedding… these gifts are too fabulous to pass up!
Right now if you stop by Tiffany Designs you can use your group tag to pick up this shimmering Jocey Bridal Gown in white for only 1L (the group is 50L to join). It includes Maitreya, TMP and Slink appliers as well as system layers for the body portion of the gown and though I’m usually a mesh-fan girl… this dress is perfect in flexi. Mesh could NOT have given this dress the ‘flow’ it needed with the glittering affect that the designer added into the flexi pieces, which are simply breathtakingly beautiful for your special day (or any formal dance really).
To add a little more sparkle to my Tiffany Design Jocey Bridal head piece, I hopped over to the Swank event, where I discovered that Zuri Rayna was giving away this lovely head piece in steel blue called Madeline. It is completely FREE, no group required. Just stop by the booth at Swank and pick it up!
And if that isn’t enough to convince you that all your second life dreams have come true, just check out this skin that Astrid is wearing? For me it was love at first sight! Who needs a groom? I love the soft freckles, the lovely shade of the lips, and the definition to the collarbones. And this Women’s Stuff Hunt gift from the Deluxe Body Factory was not only completely FREEbut also contained Slink and Omega body appliers plus additional Omega lipstick appliers!
Of course… what wedding would be complete without a honeymoon? And Tiffany Designs didn’t let me down. Be sure to stop by the front desk on your way out and pick up this sexy Sara Lingerie in green for FREE(no group required for this one). This lovely little number came with system layers as well as Maitreya and TMP appliers to complete your look.
I also topped off my evening look with this sultry long loop necklace I found on Marketplace by Miam Miam. It is only 10L and has 15 color change options (I am showing the green because it matched the lingerie). It’s a piece of jewelry I’m sure I will find myself wearing again and again with that kind of versatility!
Sim – Dreamland – Celestina’s Weddings – According to the Destination Guide: “Celestina’s Weddings has more than 21 venues to choose from to create a very romantic, magic and unique atmosphere for your special day. Explore with your partner or take a guided tour with one of the bilingual wedding planners.”
Being a European, I don’t celebrate Thanksgiving though I am thankful for many things in my life! I hope everyone who does celebrate Thanksgiving has been having a good day in their own special ways!
Today I wandered over to Dysfunctional Designs after remembering seeing some freebies there when I picked up a few house decorations last week. I love landscaping and home furnishings so anything I can find to add to my inventory, I am like a magpie!

The second annual Alice In RMK Bunny Hunt began on March 1st and runs until March 31st. There are 26 absolutely free prizes to be found in this hunt. I have put together a post of a handful of the items just to give you enough of a taste to get your butt down to the RMK sim and check it out. This isn’t your usual “find the icon and grab the prize” kind of hunt. This hunt is a hunt with a twist!
You can find hunting instructions and a list of participating stores at their official blog in several languages, but I’ll give you a simple rundown here 🙂
First thing you do, is go to the STARTING POINT. There you will accept the hunt terms, and walk through them. Then you will click on Humpty Dumpty to receive your free Card Soldier outfit. There are several Card Soldier Outfits, but you can only receive one. Some are rarer than others. This is the perfect hunting outfit because it doesn’t contain any scripts and will ensure you have a low lag experience, but you don’t have to wear it to hunt! After you have collected your Card Soldier, you can enter through the little door under Humpty to the garden area.
Once you are in the garden area you need to chase bunnies! Literally.. look all over the place (and these are not limited to the garden, they could be anywhere!) for the little grey hoppy bunnies. Once you have found a bunny, follow it around and don’t lose it, because it will eventually drop a ticket that you’ll need to pick up. Keep an eye on that bunny, because it will only be dropping one ticket, and anyone could snatch it up before you get it!
After you have your ticket, wear it, and go to the co-ordinating store to search for an Alice In Wonderland Book which you will click on and it will give you the prize. Normally these books are just on the reception desks, however a few I saw cleverly hidden. DevinVaughn, who introduced me to this hunt, and was a big help explaining it all, gave me a time saving tip – which was to use the SLURLS on the main blog, not the actual landmarks in the tickets, because some of them are not correct. There are last minute changes in hunts, and that’s to be understood with all that goes on organizing a hunt, but the SLURLS on the website work! If you receive duplicate tickets, you can trade with others. There is a Ticket Trading Area… but you can trade anywhere.
CHECK OUT SOME OF THE PRIZES:
WEG Alice Another II Dress (free / 0L / RMK Bunny Hunt)
SOUP Alice Rabbit (free / 0L / RMK Bunny Hunt)

Even if you aren’t up for the hunt, head down there and check out the gorgeously decorated sim or.. attend a TEA PARTY! YAY! It really is quite something!
