A Light When All Other Lights Go Out

Then, as he stood, darkness about him and a blackness of despair and anger in his heart, it seemed to him that he saw a light:
a light in his mind, almost unbearably bright at first, as a sun-ray to the eyes of one long hidden in a windowless pit.
Then the light became colour: green, gold, silver, white.  Far off, as in a little picture drawn by elven-fingers, he saw the Lady Galadriel standing on the grass in Lórien, and gifts were in her hands.

– J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

A Bit of Magic

Sometimes when the night seems dark, we will all find a bit of light when we expect it least.   Today my little slice of light comes courtesy of MGCK SPDR.  I know that group gifts and fashion in SL sometimes seem a frivolous thing, but they do bring us a bit of pleasure when we need it!  This lovely candy corn inspired gown is one of several group gifts that you can pick up at their mainstore (including a matching set of pumps) by joining their group for 25L.  How lovely!

Sizes

• Freya
• Isis
• Legacy

Lady in the Shadows

I don’t know about y’all but I’m more than ready for the weekend! All the good Halloween parties are happening this weekend both in RL and on the Grid. Now I can’t help you with the RL parties but I think I’ve got you covered for the Grid Parties.

I probably could have filled up a week or two of posts with just the Boo! at Blacklace Hunt. The prizes are just that great. So I had to pick just two favorites. You saw the lingerie, and here’s my dress-up fav. This is the “Shadows” gown from Tinroof. Tinroof has set out three gifts for the hunt: the gown, a crow for your shoulder and the lovely masquerade type mask I’m holding. (with it’s own hold animation) At first, I only wanted the mask but I also found the gown and as soon as I saw it, I feel in love. The fabric is just gorgeous and purple is my favorite color. Plus, it’s just slinky enough to be smexy without being … um, overly reveling. perfect for a masked ball, don’t you think?

Sizes Included

• Belleza
• eBody
• Maitreya
• Ocacin
• SLink
• Standard Mesh XS – XL

A quick P.S. – Love showed us this gorgeous ‘statement’ necklace here. It’s still available for FREE at FaMESHed! But don’t wait too long if you need it!

My heart is in Havana

Hey there Fabulous Readers! As you can see, I am in absolutely no rush to get into fall apparel yet.  I’ll be wearing my summer gear until the sun stops shining!  How about you?  Are you one of those jump ahead with boots and sweaters kind of people or the kind that drags out summer as long as they possibly can?  I suppose the fact that my winter is most of the year probably decides for me…  I take advantage of it as much as I can!

A sweater?  Forget it!  How about a compromise?

This 2 pc loose chunky knit set called Havana is available as a free group gift at Beautiful Dirty Rich with a free group join!  It’s a sort of sweater, right?  This set comes in a ton of mesh body fits and includes a texture change HUD that allows for tons of florals and solids to mix and match.  I added their vendor ad below so that you can see them all.

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Freya, Isis & Venus
• eBody Curvy

My Necklace is also free!

Need a pretty bauble to add a little something extra to your new outfit?  Stop by FaMESHed!  At the landing point of the new round for September, you’ll find a cart full of free Fameshed group gifts by a selection of participating designers.  You might as well grab them all lol, but in one of those boxes you’ll find the chunky Eos Gold 2018 necklace shown on my avatar by Eurdora 3D for FREE!  You will need to join the FaMESHed inworld group to pick up these gifts, but the group is free – so score!

Just Another Page In A Story

Hello Fab Free!

I made a trip to SLB15 today and holy cow the amount of free gifts available are insane! It may take a while to get into the event given it started recently. Don’t worry you still have plenty of time, to grab the gifts and see all the amazing sales! The event doesn’t end until, July 2nd. You can see previous coverage on the event by Love, [here].

Addams is having an awesome sale on the items at her shop, 50% off! I can’t wait for payday, because that includes the fatpacks! At the SLB15 event Addams has two FREE GIFTS to share with us. One gift is coupons, which are good until July 2nd at 11:59 PM SLT. The second gift, is a red click-able heart, at the store location at SLB15-Addams Location. The heart is loaded with 50 presents and once you click the heart, it will present you with a gift at random. This FREEBIE is only available for 2 days, but you get one click a day. The coupons will remain available until the end of the event.

If you are having trouble getting into the event for your gift, there is another heart at the Addams in-world store location too! The main store for Addams is here.

Another FREE GIFT at SLB15 is a pair of beautiful vintage peep-toe heels by Eudora 3D. I absolutely adore these! I was a bad girl and opened them right there on the busy Sim to wear them! I don’t want to take them off, they are so delicate and feminine looking. I LOVE vintage inspired items. The store is located on the sim called Gilded- Eudora 3D SLB15 location. This is an exclusive item only available in Maitreya.

There are a ton for other creators, as well as their FREE GIFTS, so be sure to stop by SLB15, before July 2nd. I have tried to include most of the landmarks in my post, so if one doesn’t work try another!
