Come Away With Me

Hello Fab Free! Summer is creeping very near, and this girl needs a vacation. I’m ready to hop on a plane and fly just about anywhere. Who’s with me?! Before I fly away aboard an airplane to anywhere, I want to share this cute and seriously inexpensive outfit I picked up at Petry Model Store. There’s nothing like a cute new outfit. New clothes make already fun things seem extra fun. The dress and shoes are both group gifts for 2 different groups, and both are at the Petry Model Store main location. You’ll find them waiting, along with quite a few others, just inside the entrance and to the left.

The Dress – This cute tube dress by Petry Model Store is equal parts sexy and casual. How that’s possible, I’m not sure, but it works. The dress is a free group gift for the Mesh Body Friends group. The Mesh Body Friends group is free to join. This gift comes in a few sizes and in the mauve pink color shown.

Sizes Included: Slink Physique, Belleza (Venus, Isis, Freya), TMP, Maitreya Lara

The Shoes – Also at Petry Model Store are the cute heels that match the free dress. You’ll find these shoes right next to the dress, and the Fab Free group gift dress Juli blogged here. They are free for the AUG group members. The AUG group is just 10 linden to join. These strappy shoes come with a color change hud that has quite a few color choices. Not only do they match the dress for the Mesh Body Friends group, they also happen to match the Fab Free group gift!

Sizes Included: Slink, Belleza, Maitreya

Hello there Fabulous Readers!  I am visiting you today with something a little different than my usual offering.  I came across some really nice, low prim – AND FREE autumn decor.  I suppose this stuff could all go inside or out, but I have it displayed on the porch as you can see 😉

Kraftwork – 25L to join

When you join the Kraftwork inworld group for 25L, you can pick up several group gifts, including the new one called L’automne that includes the decorative mirror, table, small pumpkins, big pumpkins, mason jar and rug.  Each of these items are copy/mod.

Crate – Free to join

Crate has several free group gifts as well, and they come with a free group join.  I picked up the Fall Breeze Chair that comes with the blanket thrown over the back as well as the decor on the seat.

Dust Bunny has a free to join group too, with a wall full of decor group gifts and they have recently released the Rabbit Ear Sponge Cake you see in the center of the table.

I think there’s something you should know, I think it’s time I told you so

Hello there Fabulouses! Today I come to you with news about a little freebie that I thought was really cute!

Freedom!  You’ve gotta give for what you take

A few months back, I joined the Carol G. inworld group and I have not been sorry I did!  I stayed in this group and have been picking up new tattoo group gifts on a fairly regular basis!  Recently, the Freedom 3D Tattoo was sent out to the group and it’s really cute!  It does have the appearance of 3D and looks adorable with this new Navy & Copper Triffle hairstyle (available at Shiny Shabby) that is pulled forward off the back onto the shoulders creating the perfect landscape for a sweet new tatt such as this!  The Carol G. inworld group is 150L to join, but like I said…  I haven’t been sorry about paying the fee!  Sometimes you have to give a little to get a little.

Appliers Included:

• Maitreya
• Slink
• Belleza
• Omega
• TMP

Wake Me When Tuesday Comes

Nope, not gonna do it. I’m afraid I just can’t Monday today.

In fact, I don’t even think I’ll get myself dressed. 😛

Naps: Not Just for Toddlers

Yesterday — when I had more energy — I managed to get myself into the SL15B shopping area and pick up some really lovely gifts.

For starters, I was super happy to find this comfy nightie as a free gift from Neve. The Altierre PJs come in sizes for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink mesh bodies. A HUD with 4 really cute print textures is included.

I also picked up these adorable socks from Vinyl. They’re called Fox Says Socks, but they actually look more like kitties, I think. But whatever the face is supposed to be, they’re really cute with the little ears that stick up. The socks come in blue, pink, tan, and white ombre, and are sized for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink mesh feet.

The SL15B shopping event is still a bit crowded, so if you can’t get in, just keep trying. It’s totally worth the wait!

Not So Risky Business

Hello there Fabulouses!  I have been busy in the yard this weekend, and I just couldn’t wait to put on something cozy and fall into a comfy chair.  I had to giggle to myself a little after the photo was finished because I noticed it looked a lot like a worn out, female version of “Tom Cruise in Risky Business”, thus the title.  Today I am featuring EIGHT more FaMESHed group gifts as well as a Midnight Mania Board prize I scored at Aleutia.

The Look

My look today was put together with the Felicity Patterns Flannel Shirt that I managed to win FREE in a midnight mania board at Aleutia.  At Aleutia, you’ll find an open MM board and a group MM board (20L to join) as well as five group lucky chairs.  I won this in the open midnight mania board, but it is available in the other board and chairs at times as well too.  If you don’t win it one way, you’ll win it another!

The oversized shirt was calling for a pair of little white socks and I remembered that I had picked up the FREE group gift at FaMESHed by Eudora 3D and they were Shortsocks fitted for Maitreya.  These socks come with a texture change HUD too!

My hairstyle is also FREE today, and can be found as one of three group gifts at FaMESHed by Elikatira.  This one is called Lauren and it comes with an essentials pack HUD which contains several different shades  in a variety pack to choose from.  Astrid showed you one of the others in her post [HERE].

The Furnishings

Aside from the chair and table, all of the decor pieces in my photo are FREE group gifts from the Anniversary round of FaMESHed!

• Wall Decor – Apple Fall Copper Shovel & Pitchfork (free FaMESHed group gift / 0L / free to join)
• Pictures – Fancy Decor Harpsichord Prints (free FaMESHed group gift / 0L / free to join)

Stars Can’t Shine Without The Darkness

Good morning Fabulouses!

Bedazzling

A little while back, Aline mentioned that Sn@tch had updated their eight lucky board prizes [HERE].  I did a little lucky board stalking myself, and won The Velvet Romper that you see me wearing today!  Perfect for lounging around, this one piece item is free at Sn@tch if your lucky letter comes up (no need to join the group).  It’s beautifully textured in a soft velvet and features bedazzled straps for just a little bit of flair!  Not only does it come in the gorgeous blue I have chosen, you can select from the 14 different colour options in the included HUD.

Sizes Included:

• XS-L mesh + Alpha Layer
• Maitreya
• Slink
• Belleza

Good luck!

Donut Tempt Me

I’m standing in my kitchen, and wondering who put this pile of donuts and these sugar cookies here.  Why?  Why!  I want to eat every single last morsel, BUT I shall be good.  I’ve got my reasons, like wanting to fit into this super adorable and sweet dollarbie dress from No Cabide!

Heart Eyes

I am pushing all thoughts of sweet treats from my mind and focusing on how cute this little dress is!  I do enjoy anything dappled with hearts, and this dress just makes me smile.  You can grab it for a measly little Linden on the SL Marketplace from No Cabide!  Cute!

Sizes

• XXS – L with an Alpha
• Freya
• Hourglass

I just remembered….I can eat anything I want in SL and not gain any weight!

I guess you CAN have your cake and eat it too!

My Summer Space

Hello Fab Free’rs!I don’t know about you, but I am definitely experiencing summer weather right now. It’s sunny and hot! About this time of year for the past few years I start hearing about creative ways people are creating personal space indoors and outdoors. The ladies especially seem to be getting in on this movement, I keep hearing terms like “She Shack” and “Woman Cave”.  Limited on both space and funds in real life, I decided to try this trend myself here in Second Life.

Fab Exclusives

Two of the items I picked up to create this little back porch oasis are Fab Free Exclusive group gifts. This means they are absolutely FREE! As a reminder, and for those who are new to Fab Free, the Fab Free group is always always always FREE to join. The first gift I picked up to get started on my little space is the lovely aqua blue wood background with the pretty climbing ivy plant shown in my photo. It is the FREE Fab Free exclusive gift from Cwtch.  The background lovely all on it’s own (my photo really doesn’t do it justice), still I liked it as the main “wall” for my little spot. Next I also picked up the current FREE Fab Free exclusive group gift from Storax Tree. That little kitty napping in her gilded hanging cage was just too cute to resist. Besides, even my quite spot needs a furry friend to keep me company. The open cage is usually quite a bit larger, but I sized it down using the built in touch menu.

Not all Dust Bunnies are Bad

Along with their recent FREE group gift, Dust Bunny released the cutest gacha set recently. The FREE group gift is the beautifully detailed diy rose tea set. This pretty little piece of decor would look lovely sitting on a table or counter. The Dust Bunny group is also FREE to join. In the name of sprucing up my quiet space, I also Dust Bunny’s new Woodland Dreams gacha while I picked up the group gift. The gacha is just 50 lindens per play, and there is a bonus gift awarded after 20 plays. I didn’t play that many times, so I can’t really comment on that gift, however you’ll find it pictured next to the gacha machine at Dust Bunny, then you can decide on your own if it’s worth the effort. I ended up with a good selection of the common furniture/decor items after just a handful of plays. The hanging macrame chair is probably my favorite of the group, there are around 20 female sit poses, and almost as many male sit poses in the chair. Of course picked one of the least feminine of all the female poses for this photo!

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Why So Early Kittens?

Hey there FabFree readers!!  Today, as you can see…  I am up WAY too early tendng to the needs of my very needy kittens.  Why are they always up so early?  I wish I was a morning person…  Seriously, if I could wake up at 8:30 every day, that would be just fine with me :).  Work days, weekends, whatever – I think that’s a natural time for me to just wake up without alarms…  or cats.

These Witty Cats by the way, are available at this round of The Arcade Gacha by Mutresse for 50L per play.  There are several really funny/sassy cats to try your luck on.

I haven’t even had a chance to get dressed yet, but since I haven’t, I suppose I should tell you that this cute Flamingo Love Lingerie Set is available at Milk Tea as a free hunt prize for the Women Only Hunt!  The hunt icon you are looking for is a little coconut, and it’s really quite easy to find given the hint that you can pick up at the landing.  I’m including their vendor ad below so that you can see the full set up close.
I should also mention, since they fall under 75L that the items used to build the scene in my photos are mostly made up of items from the Dust Bunny Wanderlust Gacha Set (Arcade Gacha – 50L per play).  I have used the Hadera Caravan, Apothecary Cabinet, Belted Pillows and Bouquet Teacup.

The “Let’s Have a Good Day Coffee Tray” can be found in the FollowUs Marketplace store as a dollarbie!  If I am up anyways, I might as well eat and get on with my day, right? 🙂
