Need just a little something to finish off your outfit?
Here are some basic goto accessories and a couple of statement pieces you may want to ad to your wardrobe.
I like to just toss on a tank and some jeans when playing with accessories so I can really focus in on them.
There are group gifts, hunt items, dollarbies and freebies.
From the above pic both my cool fun Whale purse and sunglasses are FREE group gifts and the groups are FREE to join. My purse is from 187, just a sheer fun item sure to turn heads. Plus lots of other to GGs grab while you are there. My sunglasses are from Glamistry but require the SL F & O group tag. No worries you can join the group from the pink sign above the gift.
My cute heart hair pins are from the Color me Project which runs til Feb 25th. There are all sorts of FREE gifts there, these came from the Le Coq D’or stall. You can wear just 1 or all 4 since they attach separately. You can edit them into just the right spots in your hair.
My 2 hearts necklace is from the Vintage Valentine Hunt and costs 1L. You also have the option to buy it for 25L if you really don’t wanna hunt but its really easy to find so save yourself those lindens. The it! shop is the stop for this prize and the hint is “Well aren’t you the lucky one!”
I found these cool Gem Wing cuff Earrings by R.icielli for 1L on Marketplace. You get both right and left earrings. You can edit them for a good fit so they will probably even work with mesh ears.
This pretty FREE Marquessa Diamond pink set by EarthStones is lovely to have for your next formal event. The set comes in 3 separate boxes, necklace, bracelet and earrings. There are also several other gifts for you to pick up making the 250L group join fee worth it. You do have to take a long walk to get inside to where the gifts are don’t give up they are there. My Opulant mask is a FREE hunt from the Jack and Jill hunt (JOJ) which runs til Feb 29th. This is on the Jill path, found at Melonopolis Use the hint “Oh No! Hurry! It’s on FIRE!!! There are actually 3 masks, silver, gold and blk included so you are good to match any jewelry you have.
Hopefully you found a trinket or bobble here that made your day.

Purse: 187 – Whale purse FREE with FREE group join
This Sugar Skull set works for celebrating the Day of the Dead or lovers of sugar skulls.
Neve formerly known as Coldlogic (still located at the same location) is giving this set away as their current FREE GG. The group is free to join. Coldlogic rebranded into Neve and is now including more mesh body fits with their clothing, Venus Isis, Slink and Maitreya. Of course you still also get the standard mesh sizes like before. The new Neve line has the same quality Coldlogic was always known for. You get 2 versions of the mesh Campus sugar skulls shirt. One with the undershirt which you are seeing here. You are also getting the mesh zeezee leggings in 2 patterns, web & stripes. Both top and bottom have easy to use HUDs giving you lots of options. I also wanted to show you the new current FREE GG over at Earthstones which is the Spider Cascade Hair Stick in my hair. It comes with a color hud to change the stone color. It is also adjustable to work with any hair you already have. No date was given but it sounds like this gift wont be around long so I would run right over and grab it. The Earthstones group does have a 250L fee to join but there are a whole wall full of gifts along with this one. There are plenty of Day of the Dead makeup tattoos on MP, I grabbed the Delizio – La Dia de Los Muertos Face Paint Tattoo I am wearing for FREE.
Just to show you all of the patterns and a few of the wearable options I snapped some more pics for you. You are seeing all 4 shirt patterns some with and without the undershirt and both legging patterns in these pics. The top and leggings can be worn as separates for even more options.
There is a chill in the air so I am gonna snuggle up in one of my sugar skull shirts and enjoy the rest of the day. I hope you enjoy them too.

Ahh, Thursday again, which is quickly becoming my favourite day of the week, as I get to show all you lovely Fab readers, some great deals! Today shall be no different. The recent post, by fellow blogger Morgie Hilra, that Pru featured HERE, in which she made a video showing off several places for new, or just deal-loving avies to go for free or well-priced items, including our own FabFree HQ, reminded me that it has been an awful long time since I paid Free Dove a visit. So, this week, that is where I headed, and let me tell you, there is something for everyone, whether you are new to SL, or have been around awhile and have mesh body parts out the ying-yang. LOL. Let me show you a few pieces that I think everyone will love, and each item is totally FREE!
Let me start off with my clothing. The cute Layla tank in Purple, and my sexy Jade skinny jeans, are both items at Free Dove from blah.BLAH.blah. The mesh tank top actually comes in a whole fatpack of colours, 8 to be exact, and each come in the standard sizes. As for my jeans, it is almost like a fatpack. You get 4 versions of jeans. V1, which I am wearing, has a brown belt, while V2 has a jean belt that matches the jeans themselves. Both versions then also come in 2 more versions, cuffed or uncuffed. Not bad for free. Like the tanks, these are mesh, and come in the standard sizes.
No outfit is complete without some kind of jewelry, at least that’s my opinion. Lucky for me, EarthStones has some goodies for you at Free Dove as well. Their offering is the Lora set in 2 colours. These sets consist of a necklace, and matching earrings. You get one set in silver, with a turquoise stone, which I am showing off (although my hair is hiding my earrings), and another set in gold, with a warm, orangey-coloured Sunstone. Each piece is script-resizable, so the majority of shapes and sizes should be able to adjust as needed.
My last Free Dove gift to show you, is from Pink Cherry, and it is for you SLink hand and feet users, such as myself. You can pick up a set of nail appliers, in a really pretty metallic and black pattern, again, for free! Silly me, forgot to include a picture of the hud, but there are 8 total colours for you to choose from, that all have the black accent stripe on them. The perfect finishing touch for pretty much any outfit.
OK, so I mentioned my hair when talking about my jewelry. The last gift I want to share with you, said hair, is not from Free Dove, but I had to let you all know about it. The fun and sassy Sadie hair, in Walnut, is the current free group/subscribo gift from Zalea. You all remember ChiChickie! don’t you. Well, when they closed to rebrand, Zalea is what they became. Pru showed off the free Grand Re-Opening gift HERE (and it’s still available, in case you were wondering, along with the gift hair they had out at this years Hair Fair.) Both of those are free for everyone, but if you want the hair I have on, you have 2 choices; join their free in-world group and grab it from history, or if you don’t have room, join the subscribo, and it is in that history, as well. It’s a sweet style of un-rigged mesh, with some flexi-pieces that add a little movement as you walk, and you all know how partial I am to shorter-do’s.
Alrighty..I think I have shown you all I can for now. I know, I could find more, but I need something to show you next week! Who am I kidding, as if I could run out of awesome freebies and cheapies to show off. That is why I love SL, so many generous designers with awesome products for us thrifty shoppers. So, until then, TTFN!

Give me coffee and no one gets hurt! But seriously… I like my coffee. Who doesn’t? (Shhhhh… If you don’t — I don’t want to know!)
So I was off adventuring again, looking for a great spot to get my morning coffee and lucky for me the Vicarious Youth Cart at the Cart Wash Sale had just what I needed to top my morning off right! This great mesh cardigan (it comes in all the standard sizes and in two different colors as you can see on the cart picture at the bottom of the post) and was perfect for my morning wake up call! For only 10L it was the perfect added comfort to my morning cuppa Joe!
I also found this fabulous necklace and earring set for Ladies at EarthStones that matched just perfectly! (The earrings are hidden under my hair but I promise they are there.) These pretty understated beads called the “Arron Set” for ladies comes with a handy resize script and is a FREE group gift from EarthStones right now with your group membership. The group is 250L to join, but if you’ve not stopped by in a while, there were many gifts still sitting out for happy shoppers!
Once I had my coffee I was all set for some serious reading. (Who wouldn’t be?) And FauxDoll Rae didn’t let me down! I found this cute wearable poetry book (pose included! No need to rezz!) on the Marketplace for just 10L! The creator has included her own original art and poem on the book for you to read as well! How awesome is that!
Once you’ve had your morning coffee and gotten your reading in, be sure to hop over to the Vicarious Youth Cart at the Cart Wash sale. There is a great selection of items there for the entire family. There are adult lady’s and men’s styles, teen’s styles, and children’s clothes as well as two FREEgifts — a kitty headband and a Dr. Who trapper keeper. Woo Who!
Sim – BRB Coffee Shop – “A beautiful coffee shop to meet friends or spend a quiet hour with a good cup of coffee. There are amazing views & waterfall and a dance floor in the second floor lounge. Cupcakes,donuts,pie,cake,COFFEE.”
Ok, so, I have to admit, when I was thinking of titles for this post, all I could think of as I was looking at myself, was yummy, sweet and sour strawberry lemonade. It’s funny, because that has nothing to do with my outfit, other than the fact I am wearing yellow and pink. I figured, what the heck, I’ll go with it, and even found a quaint little fruit stand selling lemons for a background. So lemme show you what was making my mouth water.
Everything I am featuring today, except my mani and pedi, are from a new to me event called SOU By Creation.jp. They are celebrating their 1st anniversary right now, and some of the designers have put out free gifts, some of which are group exclusive, and others are free for all. For the group exclusive gifts, the Creation.jp group is free to join, just slap one of the many group join boards at the event. You have until July 25th to grab all the gifts, and there are others I’m not showing, so it’s worth the visit🙂
My lovely polka-dotted yellow dress is one of the group gifts. It’s from Azul, and is mesh, in all the standard sizes. While I did not include a shot in this post, you really must get a look at how sexy the back is on this. Oh, and I’ll just mention, if yellow is not your colour, or you really like this dress, head over to the Azul main store and they have this same dress in blue for their July group gift, and pink for SLF&O group members. Both groups are free to join, and the gifts are free!
Next giftie I’m showing you is this cute, short, unisex Katze hair from Uw.st. This hair is a group gift, so make sure you have your tag active. You get 2 different colours of this unrigged mesh hair, the Ash Rose that I am wearing, as well as a lighter Silver Wolf version, that I have not shown. Now, don’t be confused, although a lovely blonde/brown shade, I decided to tint the Ash Rose version to a dark brown (the lower picture is what Ash Rose really looks like). I did this for 2 reasons, 1 : I tend to wear darker hair usually, and 2 : to show you that since it is modifiable, you are not limited to wearing just the colours they have given you. You can tint to your heart’s content! It’s almost like getting a fatpack🙂
A benefit of the Kitze hair, is how well it shows off another of the gifts I grabbed at SOU By Creation.jp. My classic gold and silver twist, hoop earrings are the gift from EarthStones, and it’s one of the free for everyone gifts, no group needed. Everyone needs a pair of earrings like these. They will go with everything, and the mixed metals open up so many more possibilities of other jewelry you can pair with them.
The last goodie I am showing from this event is the sweet Ballet Flower ring from katatOnik. This, plus my nails and shoes, is where that hint of pink comes into my outfit. You get 2 versions, one with a gold band, and one with a silver band. It is unrigged mesh, so you can resize it as needed. I have been a long time fan of katatOnik, and this freebie did not disappoint. Like my earrings, this is a free for everyone gift.
OK, I did mention my mani and pedi earlier. My lovely nails are courtesy of La Boheme, and are a free hunt gift for the Body Art Hunt, which started July 1st. You get 2 different sets, one with a gold accent, which I am showing off, and one with a silver. There are huds for both fingers and toes for SLink only, although I found that you only needed to use one to change both. I’ve included the display picture below so you can see all the pretty colours you get with these sets. Make sure you take a good look around the store, as there are a few other hunts happening here, as well as all sorts of great deals. The hint for this particular hunt gift is this : Cats usually prefer ferns to snack on, but Oscar likes a thicker leaf.
Wow…almost everything I am wearing is free! I love when a great outfit can be put together and the only cost is a little walking around🙂 I should have looked a little harder for free shoes to make this a totally free outfit, but, we all know my shoe obsession. I needed to get some use out of all the shoes I already have! LOL. OK lovelies, this was another wonderful Thursday spent with you all, but I must be off, I need to go quench my strawberry lemonade craving! You know the drill, until next Thursday, TTFN!

I was a huge fan of Woodstock (I’m pretty sure he was on my first lunch box when I started kindergarten). My memories come flooding back when I think of those times. Of course, I was too young to enjoy the summer of love back then. Sure, I may have gone running off in a field, letting my diaper fall to the warm earth, and enjoying the feeling of a summer breeze embracing me, but I am also pretty sure I would have gotten spanked for it, too. Spanked very hard, the sixties didn’t reach my family home until around 1976. The good news is that for those of us who missed out on the groovy clothes and free love back then, Madcat Creations has designed an excellent prize for The Vintage Hunt. The Male Hippie Outfit is so brilliantly colored it actually looks like it is tie-dyed, as opposed to some similar items with multicolored fractal images on them. This outfit brought me instant faux flashbacks of dancing in the mud, grooving to the sounds of the Grateful Dead. Keep in mind one of the most popular club events in SL are Sixties-themed nights. This prize will come in very handy. The Vintage Hunt is not a free hunt, but the prizes are only 1L and if you look around Madcat Creations you might find the matching women’s version as well (they are boxed separately). My bracelet is a free group gift from one of the best Jewelry stores on SL: Earthstones. The Peace Friendship Bracelet goes great with this outfit, but be mindful that the group costs 250L to join. My campsite is a great hunt prize from Finishing Touches. Available for FREE on The Camping Trip Hunt , it comes with the table, chairs and a nice campfire with a pot of coffee warming. Truly a lovely hunt gift.
From a full-fledged freak out of colors, we step away from the pallet to admire something entirely different. This white leather jacket with the integrated grey T-shirt from Wanted knocked me out when I saw it. Luckily for all of us, it has just been put on their Midnight Mania board! I was originally planning to pair it with a nice pair of black jeans, or maybe with a frosted texture, which I am sure would look fantastic. However, Apple May Designs had something even better to go with it for 1L in their Recolors Of Spring Hunt. These white pants look great with the jacket, and since they are unbuttoned at the very top, adding a belt to fill the space between the jacket and the pants as shown is a great idea. The Recolors Of Spring Hunt is scheduled to end today so hurry to pick up these pants. Seriously, RUN! As I was preparing this post, I realized this same men’s jacket in XS might please a female avatar who has an androgynous appearance, or is going for a tomboy look. Since it’s an MM board, we guys could sure use your help locking it anyway.
So, as April showers give way to the full bloom of flower power, and your travels on the grid take you to new, exotic locations, please take a moment to reflect on what a lovely, wonderful world we live in. Peace and love.—–WHC Riler

I’ll just start with the fact that I cannot say enough good things about the latest group gifts from Glam Affair, Earthstones, and ZOZ.
Recently Glam Affair put out this gorgeous skin in two tones for free to all group members. I think I’m a little bit in love! I’m wearing the “Asia” tone, which is a tiny bit darker than the other tone included, both are lovely. In addition to Glam Affair‘s gift, on my pilgrimage of gift-getting, I picked up a beautiful bracelet from Earthstones.
I’ll be the first to admit I often neglect to include jewelry in my wardrobe, not because I don’t like it, but because I’m forgetful! The second I saw this candy cane bracelet from Earthstones, I had to have it. It’s dainty, and I really like the iridescent textures. Part of me wants to wear it with everything, matching or not!
Feeling pretty in my new skin, and my shiny new bangle, this beautiful holiday themed manicure from ZOZ is the proverbial icing on the cake. I really like this more delicate take on a holiday manicure, with the white reindeer silhouette and the classic french tips. This FREE gift is the type of manicure you could wear all winter and not just during the holidays. Also, the ZOZ Group is FREE to join until January 1! Please note that the manicure does require ZOZ mesh nails, though it does include a hud for Slink toenails.
Here are the details, Enjoy!

Where has the day gone? It seems like this day has just flown by, at least for me! So I am going to make this short and sweet. While doing a little shopping earlier, I came across this adorable little dress from Osito. Today only you can pick up this fully mesh dress for just $50 lindens as part of the “Hello Tuesday” sales! This halter style dress has a sweet and comfy sundress feel to it. It’s just the sort of thing I’d wear when I wanted to look cute without much effort! To go with my pretty little dress, I picked up an amethyst necklace and matching earrings from EarthStones. These are current group gifts at EarthStones. The pieces are called “Peace & Love” and I really like how sweet and delicate they look. With my outfit together, I of course had to have the perfect manicure to go with it. Nail Me! Has just the thing, these “Lottie Dottie” nails are at a promotional price of just $50 lindens for a limited time. The nails come in a few color variations, and are just too cute to pass up. Head over to Nail Me! and get them while they are still at this awesome price!
Another time sensitive post for you! It is that time at BehaviorBody again, another free Sunday gift. This time it is the BehaviorBody animated model poses set 3. This set includes 12 animated poses, which means, each pose is actually a combination of 2 or 3 poses in 1…that’s a heck of a lot of poses in total! The pictures I have taken are of what you see when you first turn the pose on, they all move into other poses after, but that would be a whole lot of pictures, and then this post would not be very quick😛 Oh, and since they are animated, you could even think about putting some of them into your AO as stands. All that for free?? I know, I couldn’t believe it either.
Before I go, I just wanted to give you a heads up about this gorgeous Pink and White striped dress I am wearing. The ::FAC:: Flora Dress [Pink Stripe] is available in a gatcha at our very own FabFree Headquarters for only L$50 a play! I am sure you are all trying to get into the Arcade right now, but there are great gatcha’s to play at FabFree Headquarters, and they will surely help ease that itchy gatcha finger.
Ok lovelies, that is it for me, I think I am about ready to go sit outside with a nice cool beverage and enjoy the last of my Sunday🙂 *waves* TTFN!

So, the other day I was searching for pretty freebies to blog, and a friend of mine pointed out that The Free dove has had a quite a few new things added recently, and a lot of it’s even mesh! I’d actually never been to The free dove, so naturally I had to check it out!
I managed to snag quite a few cute new things while at The free dove, one of which is this lovely outfit from Sn@tch!
The outfit includes a top, pants, prim cuffs, shoes, and even earrings!
My bracelet is also a freebie from The free dove! This simple and elegant piece is from Earthstones, and comes in not only black, but also red! This has a built-in resizer, so it will easily fit just about any avatar! There are so many wonderful free things over at the free dove, for men and women! Definitely take the time to check it out, you’ll certainly find something you love.
