Life is a Snowglobe

Ah, the glories of winter!  In RL, winter right now is a brown earth and grey skies kind of an affair, and it’s not exactly what I would classify as pretty.  So, I’m nipping inworld to enjoy the snowglobe effect of the gorgeous Luane’s World.  Best of all, I don’t have to shovel any of this!

Round to the Circle

I headed back to Designer Circle again because there was another fantastic gift I wanted to show you.  My entire outfit – top, skirt and boots – are courtesy of Apple Heart.  I love a good winter white, and this outfit is pretty perfect.  Happily, it’s also completely free!  No group join required either, so go pick it up before this round ends!

• Hourglass

Heart Exposed

Hello hello Fab Free’rs. I hope everyone had a fun Halloween yesterday. We made the best of a rainy night in my little world. I kind of like to sprinkle a little “Halloween” throughout the year anyway, so it never truly ends. Whether it be in the style of something I wear, or some of the decor in my home, there’s always an element of Halloween.

The darkly adorable dress Pru is wearing is exactly the sort of manner in which I like to keep Halloween around all year long. It’s super cute and just the right amount of macabre. The dress by MOoh! is a FREE Designer Circle group gift at the currently running Designer Circle event. The Designer Circle group is FREE to join. This FREEbie from MOoh! comes in several mesh sizes, and includes an alpha layer for classic avatars.

Mesh Sizes Included: eBody, Standard Fitted Mesh (a single size), Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Maitreya Lara, Slink (Hourglass, Physique)

Keep it Sn@tched

Sn@tch also has a FREE gift out at the Designer Circle event. One of which is this pretty choker Pru is wearing. I thought it complimented the gift from MOoh! really well. The choker has resize scripts for easy fitting and is simple enough for every day and pretty enough for something formal. Along with the choker there is a skybox gift included in the Sn@tch gift package at Designer Circle. The “Evil” skybox FREEbie also appears to include furniture and some decor. I am including the vendor ad for the Sn@tch skybox gift below.

Feelin’ Lovey Dovey

I am always interested in FREE hair, especially when it’s really beautiful like this group gift hair from Lovey Dovey. The Jenna hairstyle is a full fatpack that includes all the available color options. So don’t worry if you’re not into the green style Pru chose, there are plenty of other options! The Lovey Dovey group is currently 100 linden to join, and there are 2 addition gifts. The two other group gifts at Lovey Dovey are add-on bangs which can be worn with any hairstyle for a slight change.

Here are the details, enjoy!

The Warmth of the Sun

Greetings, fabulous readers! Today, I’m sharing two more free gifts from the anniversary round of Designer Circle!

This sweet, sexy top is the Designer Circle gift from MOoH! It comes with a texture-change HUD with 4 really pretty floral prints inside, and is available in the following sizes:

• Standard mesh S and L with an alpha
• eBODY
• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique and Hourglass

Since I’m a sucker for florals, I decided to extend the motif with a floral tattoo. The Femina Tattoo is the Designer Circle gift from Pin Up, and it comes with appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, and Omega. The tattoo also has a rose on the belly button, as well as a rose vine on the lower back.

You have until April 1st to grab the fabulous gifts at the anniversary round of Designer Circle.

Throwback Thursday: I’ve Lost My Head!

Going Old School

I’m not wearing my mesh head today, and I’m feeling like a bit of a “throwback.” 😉

But it’s all for a good reason: Glam Affair is having a retirement sale on their older system skins, Angelica, Cleo, Katra, and Rosa. Full-line system skins have been marked down from 999L to 399L for single makeups, and fatpacks are just 1200L per skin tone.

Also on sale are Nyam Nyam mouth appliers, Slink Visage appliers, and special edition/event system skins, which are only 100L each!

So if you’re not a mesh head wearer – and many residents are not – this is a great time to pick up some lovely system skins from Glam Affair. The sale will run until mid-April so don’t delay! (Note: mesh body appliers are not part of the sale.)

On to the Free Stuff!

As Love mentioned, Designer Circle is celebrating its 6th anniversary and 150th round this month. Many of the participating designers have set out some fantastic gifts, all of which are free or just 1L, with no group join required.

One of those gifts is this pretty Tule and Leather Dress from Posh Pixels. I really like the detailed texturing (I think it’s materials-enabled?)! The dress comes with a 6-color texture-change HUD, and in the following sizes:

• Standard mesh XXS-L with alpha layer
• Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique and Hourglass
• The Mesh Project

Top to Toe

My cute booties are by Fri.day for the current round of The Arcade, and they can be yours for a 50L pull of the gacha machine. They are available in 8 colors (including 2 rares) and are sized for Maitreya and Slink feet. I love how the lacy detail on the toes matches my lacy skirt!

Last but not least… I never feel “complete” without a handbag, so I decided to pop over to what used to be my go-to accessory store: Duh! The store had moved since I was last there, and much of the older inventory is gone. But you can still pick up some great shoes and accessories at a very reasonable price. The Falling Leaves Clutch is only 25L, which is a great deal just for one color, but… you also get blue, brown, and red in the box – woohoo! ❤

Snowbound

Wishing you a happy holiday.

With all the festive blog posts everyone else was doing, I had to do one of my own… so I put together this snowbound look that can be yours for a total of just 1L. You’ll only need to make two stops to get it all put together.

The dress.

I picked up this dress from Karla Boutique. It includes the miniskirt, the poncho, and the resizable hat. Just go inside the store and buy the gift for 1L and it is yours!

Sizes included.

For the Skirt:

• Standard fitmesh sizes XS – L
• Maitreya
• Slink – Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza – Venus, Isis, & Freya

For the Poncho: Standard mesh sizes XS – L

A girl always needs shoes.

I picked up these beautiful boots (which I think match my outfit perfectly) from MOoh! at the current round of the Designer’s Circle. This round lasts until January 7th, so you have some time, but who would want to wait when these shoes are Free? Just pay 0L for the box and these beautiful boots are yours!

They are mesh and don’t require any special feet. I found that when I removed my mesh feet they were a perfect fit and looked really nice.

MOoH!ve Over! I’m Headed To Designer Circle!

Good evening FabFree Readers!  I know there are a bazillion shopping events happening in Second Life right now and it’s hard to keep up, but you should totally try to make time to stop in at this round at The Designer Circle before it ends on the 19th because there is a huge amount of totally free gifts!  In fact, almost every vendor participating has one at their station.  Of course it’s not a bad idea to be a part of the Designer Circle inworld group to be notified of future round offerings, but there is no need to join a group to obtain these gifts, simply buy them for 0L.

MOoH!’s Designer Circle Gift…

MOoH! is participating in this round and has a really cute free Sasha Sweater in a fun zigzag print.  I have included the vendor ad below so you can see that there is a texture change HUD included that allows for four colour options!  How sweet is that? 🙂  Remember, this is just one of many gifts!!

Sizes included:

• Mesh XS – XL
• Fitmesh XS – XL
• Maitreya Tight & Loose
• Slink Tight & Loose

What’s New Pussy Cat

Hello Fab Free! I hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend! As I’m sure you’ve noticed it’s Cart Sale time again at The Wash. I love shopping The Cart Sale because there is always such a wide range of designers participating; I know I’ll find new-to-me things and fantastically inexpensive items from designers I already know and love.

The sexy sassy top and leggings shown above are a Cart Sale outfit from Entice. This set is just 10 lindens for the duration of the Cart Sale. I love this for a fun way to look really put together and still be casual. The top is fully mesh and can of course be worn separately from the red and black zebra print leggings. This is also great example of when and how to mix patterns in an outfit. These leggings come in classic system layers and an applier hud. The easy to use all in one hud has appliers for Slink, Omega, Belleza, and Maitreya compatible bodies.

Each of the 4 poses I used to help me show off this playful edgy outfit make up the gift from An Lar Poses at the current round of the Liaison Collaborative. There are two unique poses, both with a “mirrored” version. This gift from An Lar Poses is to help celebrate the 3rd anniversary of Liaison Collaborative. There’s no need to join a group, just stop by the event and pick up these FREE static standing poses from An Lar.

Also at the Entice Cart at the Cart Sale, you’ll find this cute manicure set. The set has appliers for Slink, Maitreya, Belleza, and Omega compatible nails. The manicure set is just 10 lindens and it has 6 color options each with a cute stylized black cat. I like how the addition of the cat on the nails gives a fun animal theme to the outfit.

Continuing with that thought, the March group gift from Tantalum is this detailed, unique collar/choker. I love the lock and key charm, and the sort of zipper look to this choker style necklace. This pretty piece of jewelry can be re-sized, re-colored, and otherwise adjusted via a touch menu. The Tantalum group is also FREE to join, making this collar completely FREE!

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Tattoo’d Pin-Up Designer Circle Style

I have to say, Calle really got me with this corseted one-piece by Ashmoot. Earlier this week Calle clued me in to the fantastic 5th Anniversary of Designer Circle. To celebrate their 5th year running, the participants in this round of Designer Circle have placed out a FREE gift! The 5th Anniversary round of Designer Circle ends on 19th, so don’t wait.

This cute corseted black and gold one-piece is the FREE Designer Circle 5th Anniversary gift from Ashmoot that Calle told me she thought I’d like, and she was absolutely right! I truly am a sucker for the pin-up style. This flirty gift comes in classic system layers, and appliers for most mesh bodies. In addition there are little mesh bows and frills to add a little extra dimension and cuteness.

My personal pin-up style always includes tattoos. Queen of Ink put out this really beautiful traditional style full-body tattoo as their FREE gift at Designer Circle. Queen of Ink is a new-to-me shop and I really like what I see in this gift. The freebie includes classic system tattoo layers an Omega applier, as well as body appliers for most major mesh bodies. If you enjoy tattoos the way I do, you’ll want to pick this one up!

Indulge Temptation is also participating in this 5th Anniversary round of Designer Circle. Their FREE gift is this lovely set of rose bangles. There are 3 variations, each with 3 roses. Also included is a color-change/re-size hud that allows you to adjust the size of the bangles, the color of the metal, and the color of the roses. These super pretty bracelets would look great with just about anything, casual or dressy.

Finally, the pose shown with the star floating up from Pru’s palm is also a FREE Designer Circle 5th Anniversary gift from Icons of Style. When I saw this I knew I had to share it. The pose and the bright little star make me think of those vintage pin-up post cards you still see from time to time. Yet another too cute to pass up gift!
