Grumpy Old Saint Nick

Hello Fabulous Readers!  Since we have been having good luck lately, Ripley and I decided to continue hunting this weekend.  Along the trail of The Grumpy Santa Hunt, we found the cutest silvery romper for just 1 Linden dollar.  This outfit certainly got me in the mood for the song Silver Bells and some holiday shopping.  Well, that is until I went to Walmart in RL, and changed my mind about the shopping part.  The traffic and crowds {shudder} …. bring me shopping on SL any day!

If THIS is What Santa Brings When He’s Grumpy…

…I can’t imagine how wonderful his gifts are when he is chipper!   With large gray snowflakes scattered across a dark silver background and cozy metallic tights, the Kawaii Romper from BlondeQueen has a definite wintry vibe.  I really like the way the material shimmers in the light.  The shirt portion is a tube top style with no sleeves or neckline, so I added a warm fuzzy jacket before heading out to explore the Snow Falls sim.  My feet are covered up by my fur wedge boots, but underneath, the leggings extend all the way past the heel, so your ankles will stay cozy warm no matter how hard Jack Frost tries to chill you.  (The jacket and boots are not part of the prize.)  To grab a copy of this outfit for yourself, all you have to do is teleport to the shop and look for the lump of coal that Santa left.  After that, pay one Linden dollar and you’ll have yourself a merry little outfit.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Belleza Freya, Isis and Venus
• Maitreya
• Slink Hourglass and Physique

Until next time, happy hunting!

Choose Joy

Hi There Fab Free’rs! I hope the weekend finds you well. I feel like I have been a slacker this holiday season, the decorations are only partly done, and all I seem to want to do is look out the window and daydream. Even so, I do have two festive holiday finds to share with you. The first being the unisex Peace on Earth Hunt prize at Taox Tattoo. The second is part of the Candy Cane Hunt prize at Gumi’s Flower Shop.

The Tattoo – This applier tattoo is a full-body unisex Christmas themed tattoo by Taox. I love all the cute holiday imagery included in this fun tattoo. The Peace on Earth Hunt is running until the end of December, and all the POE Hunt prizes are free. The tattoo gift at Taox comes in several male and female body appliers.
Appliers included: Slink (Male), Slink (Female), Maitreya, Belleza (Male), Belleza (Female), Omega (Male), Omega (Female), Signature, Adam, and a Vista Hand applier.

The Wreath – This cute little Christmas wreath with the gingerbread men is one of several holiday wreaths included in the Candy Cane hunt gift at Gumi’s Flower Shop. You’ll find Gumi’s Flower Shop on the Peppermint Path of the Candy Cane Hunt. All the Candy Cane Hunt prizes are just 2 linden.

Christmas Angel… of Frozen Death!!

 

Folks, I am feeling Fierce! Sometimes you just have to let your inner warrior elven queen out. Am I right??

Angel on the attack

This is the Gabriel set from Jinx and it’s awesome… and free! I was fortunate enough to pick up this set from Jinx’s Lucky Chairs over in the Group sandbox. It comes with everything you see… the body suit, the paldrons, the sheer coat, the moon staff and these amazing wings. It also comes with a pair of matching gladiator knee high heels I’m not wearing. The details in the wings and on the staff are just impeccable. The body suit, coat and shoes are all Classic Mesh sizes and even though I fussed, I wasn’t able to make the shoes work for my Maitreya feet. Shoes aside, I still love this outfit and I think it’s perfect for the RP closet!

Now, if y’all will excuse me… I’m going to go scare some innocent villagers!

A Cozy Setting for Christmas

 

We always find lots of cute clothes and hair and accessories here on FabFree. But home and garden décor sometimes slip under the radar. I, for one, love to decorate for the seasons and holidays.  My dome home is nearly always “under construction”. So when I saw these freebies at the Christmas Lane event I grabbed them up right quick! And what is ‘Christmas Lane’ you may ask…Created and built by Designer Bee Caudron of Bee Designs, it’s a magical and enchanting setting where you’ll find huge amounts of décor, masses of furniture, copious gachas, varied landscaping, animals and even holiday homes.

Hot Coco anyone?

This is the ‘Hot Chocolate set’ by Bee Designs and it’s one of the free gifts at the event. The build on the little table and sweet coco filled mugs is impeccable. It is modifiable to make larger or small and is copy ready. At 11 land impact, it won’t slow you down.

Little Red Wagon

The other gift I found was this cute little ‘radio flyer’ wagon full of presents. It too is a nice low LI at only a 6 and is copy and modify. I love the build on this little wagon too. Bee Designs is quickly becoming my ‘go-to’ for décor for just this kind of quality.

Grab your boots and coats and best Christmas apparel ’cause here’s your Taxi -> Christmas Lane

Merry Christmas Malvada Mujer

Hello There Fab Free’rs! One thing I am certain to be excited about in both real and Second Life is free makeup. It does not happen nearly as often in real life, so thankfully there’s SL. La Malvada Mujer recently put out this cool glam grunge makeup applier set as a free gift for everyone. The set includes lipstick appliers with 3 iridescent color options, and tattoo/eye makeup appliers with 3 variations. There is an Omega applier and a Genus applier for both the lipstick and eye makeup/tattoo.

To best show how the makeup looks, I used the Omega appliers to apply the makeup to Pru’s Catwa Koura head in the photo on the left. The photo on the right shows Pru wearing the Genus Project Classic head and having used the Genus makeup appliers. I love this unique makeup look with the almost holographic looking lipstick, the stylized bee tattoo, and even the smudgy black eye-shadow on the lower lid. To get your copy of this free gift head over to La Malvada Mujer and purchase the set for zero linden. You’ll find it waiting for you on the shop’s Christmas tree.

Here are the details, enjoy!

Get Ready for Cookies and Cocoa

Hello there, Fabulous Readers!  Ripley and I decided to check out the Gingerbread Men and Hot Cocoa Hunt this week.  One thing I love about this hunt is if you have time to invest in searching around for the hunt object, which is a gingerbread man, you can pick up some fabulous prizes for just one little Linden dollar each.  If you are in a hurry, or if you just can’t locate the elusive cookie, you have the option to pay 25 Linden dollars and scoop up the prize.

Just Waiting for a Waltz to Begin

I guess I must have attending holiday parties on my mind, because our first discovery while hunting is this lovely formal frock from Georg Bellic Design.  The Belle Gown hugs your curves, but has a wide, sweeping hemline to make it easy to glide gracefully across the dance floor.  Its sleeveless design shows off your slender arms and its open back contrasts beautifully with the full coverage on the front.  Elegant silvery feathers scattered across the background fabric provide a glimmering accent.  The prize package includes styles for popular mesh body avatars as well as versions for classic avatars, so there is something for everyone.  A coordinating men’s outfit is also tucked inside the package.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Classic Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, and L (includes alpha layer)
• Belleza Freya, Isis and Venus
• Maitreya
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• Tonic Curvy and Fine

We’re off to do some more exploring, and will return soon with another Fabulous Find.  Until my next post, happy hunting!

The Holiday season is truly upon us. And the Grid is abuzz with shopping and presents and parties and of course Hunts. I do enjoy a good hunt and I am especially pleased to find good prizes for the men.

When Nuts Inc comes up on a Hunt, I know that I am in store for a good prize. And this time is no different. This is the ‘Thomas’ suit and it’s the free prize for the Peace on Earth Hunt from Nuts Inc. As I said, I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed with this prize. The suit comes in an all in one piece of jacket, shirt, pants, and tie. As an added bonus, the prize includes a very smart pair of shoes.

Dance With Me?

Hello Fabulouses!  Stan and I teamed up to do some hunting along the Candy Cane 10 Hunt trail and found a really cute matchy-matchy prize over at MishMash Fusion.  We just had to celebrate by teleporting off to the Let it Snow sim for a romantic dance.  I really love the red candy cane stripes on both my dress and Stan’s vest.  They are just so bright and cheerful!  If you are looking for a coordinated outfit to wear with your significant other to a holiday party, this might be just up your alley!

On Her:  The Sweetest Frock

My Rocketpop Dress offers a full skirt for elegant swirls on the dance floor as well as halter style neck straps that are reminiscent of holiday ribbons.  Cherry colored buttons, a red sash around the waist and a red and white hemline complete the look.  The package includes versions for mesh avatars as well as sizes for classic avatars, so you’re sure to find the perfect fit for you.  Since all you need to invest to pick up this party frock is a bit of time searching and two little Linden dollars, you’ll look like you spent a bundle, but will have plenty left in the coffers for all your holiday shopping.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Classic Mesh in XS, S, M, L, XL (includes alpha layer)
• Belleza Freya, Isis and Venus
• eBody Classic and Curvy
• Maitreya
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• TMP
• Tonic Curvy and Fine

On Him:  A Dapper Suit

Stan’s Etienne Suit features a red shirt, white tie, striped vest and an elegant white color scheme.  The touches of crimson provide the perfect coordination with the Rocketpop dress without looking too overdone.  All the pieces are worn at once, so there is no fussing around trying to get the different elements to fit together.  With one click, you’ll be ready to sweep her off her feet.  Just like Kat’s prize, the package includes versions for Classic as well as a variety of mesh body styles, all for just two Linden dollars (and a bit of searching time).

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Classic mesh in XS, S, M, L, XL (no alpha layer)
• Adam
• Aesthetic
• Gianni
• Jake
• Slink
• TMP

We’re off to see what else we can discover as we continue down the hunt path.  The event lasts until December 25th and features stops at a variety of stores.  The pupster is hoping maybe there will be a box of Ripley snacks hidden somewhere along the way.  Luckily, I have a freshly baked batch waiting at home.  Until my next post, happy hunting!

Dreamer

Welcome back to the blog Fab Free’rs! I am having a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that it’s already December. This seems to be a common situation for me to find myself in however. Time moves much faster than I do! Already this holiday season seems busier than ever, and I am ready for a nice long nap. These cute satin shorts, the matching camisole, and the kitty eye-mask are all gacha items by Petite Mort that you can score for just 50 linden per play at the Imaginarium event. Not only that, but they are most definitely nap-time approved! I’ll include a copy of the gacha key below so you can see all the adorable variations of this sweet set. At just 50 lindens each, you’re gonna want them all! Also, there’s a special gift awarded after 20 pulls. Additionally, you’ll want to join the free-to-join gimme gacha group and pickup the free pair of fuzzy slippers waiting for you at the Petite Mort booth at the Imaginarium event.

Winter Friends

As, I’m sure you all know by now, the Epiphany – Holidays event is going strong! I finally got in and was just about overwhelmed. There are so many venders this year! I’m sure you’ll find something to love.

So Cozy

Like this cute as a button cozy sweater and super cute bear ears ear muffs from 89HZ. I would have been happy to pull anything from the Laura Gacha but I really wanted the cute ear muffs and a matching sweater. ‘Cause, you know, I got a lot of ear to cover. 😉 The ear muffs are easily modifiable to fit anyone and come in a bunch of colors. At 75L per play, the 89HZ Laura Gacha sneaks in just at our cut off but it’s really worth it.

Sizes Included

• FitMesh

Put a Bow In it

Limerence is quickly becoming one of my Go-To designers and I almost always play the heck out of their Gachas. The Limerence Christmas Hair Gacha at the Epiphany- Holiday Event  is no different. I was playing for the Lina Hair with the soft braid and pretty bow. At 75L per play… I played….a lot. 😉 But I was thrilled when I got the one I wanted and unpacked it. Perfect style and perfect color. There is even a HUD for the bow so I can match lots of outfits.

The Epiphany – Holidays Event runs until December 27th so don’t let it pass you by!

Juli… where are you?

Oh and a word about my gorgeous photo location… Right in the FabFree headquarters back yard! That’s right, we’ve decorated for the Holidays! Come on by and do some ice skating and Santa spotting.
