Happy Monday, Fabulouses! I’m taking a quick break from housecleaning in RL to tell you about another discovery Ripley and I made at The Cart Wash. The Wild Rose top from Mystic Dragon Designs features a floral print across a white background, a halter style neckline, and an asymmetrical open front, which offers a sexy peek at your belly button. I really love the romantic, feminine look of this summery shirt, and you can scoop it up for only 10L at The Wash.

Sadly, the dog hair (thanks, Ripley!) is not vacuuming itself up, so I need to return to my cleaning. Perhaps I should follow Serena’s example and pick up the Clean-o-Mat. It sure would come in handy! Or maybe you can train a dog to use a vacuum cleaner? I wonder…. Until my next post, happy shopping!
Hello Fabulouses! After our disaster at the Hobbiton sim, in which a certain someone, who shall remain nameless, excavated a flower garden without permission, Ripley and I decided to spend the rest of the weekend at a “dig-friendly” environment – the beach. As you can see in my photo, the sand was soon flying after being churned by furious paws, but I didn’t have to worry about the untimely death of roses.
Perfect for a Hot Summer Day
Clad in another of our Cart Wash Sale discoveries, I was ready to enjoy some sun. For only 10L each, my Hot Summer Top and Shorts from Marquesse made the perfect, budget-friendly, casual outfit for a day at the shore. My cropped top featured a knitted pattern, spaghetti straps, and sexy criss-cross lacing. The floral texture of my shorts echoed the raspberry hue of my top, and contained plenty of pockets to hold essentials for an afternoon outing. I like the realistic details of the button fly closure, seam stitching, and rivets. I could see pairing these shorts with a white, lavender or light blue tank for a bit of variety.

I’m going to hang out here, relax for the rest of the day, and maybe catch some z’s in the shade of a palm tree. Ahhh, this is the life! Until my next post, happy shopping!
Happy Saturday, Fabulouses! I hope you have a wonderfully relaxing weekend! Ripley and I started it off with a long walk in the woods at the beautiful Hobbiton Sim. If you haven’t visited there, it’s well worth the trip. The landscaping is beautifully done, and there are so many lovely spots to snap pictures, as well as places for dancing, chatting, and even some light-hearted role play.
Let Us Dance in The Sun With Wildflowers in Our Hair
For only 10L each, I created a casual and care free, bohemian summer look with a sweet top and denim micro mini from the Baci Shop stand at The Cart Wash. The Babado top left my shoulders free to soak up some sun rays, and draped in soft folds to end above my waist. Ric rac trim added a playful finishing touch to the bottom hemline. Trendy and chic, a crop top is a summer wardrobe must-have, in my book. Just in case white isn’t your style, the package includes a HUD with 80 choices so you can tint your Babado top to your liking. The white hue of the shirt coordinated beautifully with my micro mini skirt. The soft touch of lace trim helped tie together the outfit and added a romantic feel.
Playing off the bohemian vibe, I chose to wear a crown of daisies in my hair and held a bouquet of wildflowers for my photo, which I found at the La & Li Style shop on the Marketplace for only 35L. A pretty, yellow, animated butterfly is included with the posies. The cute little critter slowly flapped its wings, as it perched on a daisy. If you’d like to wear a different hairstyle, an orchid for your hair is nestled inside the box for you to tuck in your tresses.

Uh Oh…
As I have been sitting here writing my post, some clods of dirt just sailed through the air at the edge of my vision. Ripley, tired of waiting for me to finish, wandered off and decided to do some excavating in a flowerbed at the Broadfoot Residence. Oh dear, I’d better go see if I can repair the damages… I do hope we won’t be in too much trouble! Until my next post, happy shopping!
Happy Friday, Fabulous Readers! In my post yesterday {HERE}, I shared one of our finds from The Cart Wash Sale, and Ripley and I are back today with another discovery. Yesterdays’ look was casual, so I decided to switch things up today with a date-night dress with some strappy high heels.
Hello Bali Blue
I scooped up my figure-hugging mini dress at the Finale Couture display for only 10L. With slender shoulder straps joining together in a T formation at the back, and a dramatic plunging neckline, this frock will show off your curves in style. In a pale, Bali blue shade, with a texture composed of alternating leaf shaped prints, this mini dress ends with an embellished woven fringe, which adds a playful touch of whimsy. The package also includes Acadia heels in a perfectly coordinated shade, which feature delicately intertwined straps. There is also a gold toned, beaded necklace with teal-blue gems tucked inside the box as well, however, I didn’t wear it for my photo.
Sizes Included:
Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L
Alpha layer for classic avatars
Acadia heels for slink high
Acadia necklace (not shown in picture……I didn’t see it in the folder in time)
We’re Not Done Yet…
Ripley and I found *so many* budget-friendly fashions at The Cart Wash Sale, and we will return soon to share another one with you. Until my next post, happy shopping!
Hello Fabulous Readers! I hope you are enjoying the official arrival of summer. In my part of RL, summer time can be unbearable. We are broiling under a heat wave with record high temperatures that are leaving me longing for the rural dirt roads and cool green forests of my childhood home. Since I can’t get out for long in RL, I sure am glad that Ripley and I could take a long stroll down a country lane in SL.
Cute and Casual
After reading Love’s post {HERE} and Carson’s post {HERE} about The Cart Wash Sale, Ripley and I decided to take a look for ourselves, and we discovered the perfect casual outfit at the Finale Couture cart for our trip down memory lane. For only 10L, I scooped up the complete Lea outfit, which includes my black cami-style top and distressed denim jeans. One of my pet peeves is having to break in a new pair of jeans, so finding a pair that already have that vintage look, and are comfortably soft is a real plus in my book. The pale hue of these softly worn trousers contrasts beautifully with the dark satiny texture of my top. I love the way the top leaves part of my tummy bare to feel the gentle summer breeze.

Ripley and I spotted so many wonderful, budget-friendly Fabulous Finds at The Cart Wash Sale! We’ll be back soon to share another with our favorite readers. Until my next post, happy shopping!
Hello there, Fabulous Readers! Some days, you need to take a detour off the beaten path, and that’s just what Ripley and I did this morning. Not only did we discover a cool, green forest sprinkled with wildflowers, we also picked up a budget-friendly outfit to share with you.
Just a Dollar? You Bet!
For only one little Linden dollar, I scooped up the C’est la Vie maxi skirt and bra top outfit at Mirus Designs. There are two options available at the shop: the blue that I chose to wear today, and a black version, both priced at only 1L. The texture of the fabric is well done, with a subtle sheen, and realistic folds. The line separating the folds in my picture was caused by my pose; it doesn’t appear when you wear the outfit in normal use. The skirt features a waist panel with decorative stitching, and a white string tied in a bow. I really like the way the skirt drapes down to my toes. The outfit includes a coordinating bra top with white stitching, and a halter style neckline with narrow straps.

Here’s a front view so you can see how beautifully the two pieces blend together to create this playful, casual summer outfit.
Ripley and I plan to do a lot more exploring today. We’ll be back soon with another Fabulous Find to share with our favorite readers. Until my next post, happy shopping!
Hello Fabulouses! Here’s hoping your week is off to a fantastic start. Where I am in RL, we are supposed to have record heat today, which is leaving me feeling kind of wilted, and I guess that blended over into SL as well. Good thing I have a brand new summery outfit to keep me cool!
My Bae…
While Ripley frolicked in the waves over at Beach Paradise Island, I lounged on a clam shell bed, and wished for a cool breeze. Clad only in my new, free Bae Jumper from Apple May Designs, I certainly kicked back in style. In a deep, rich purple hue, adorned with a black bow at the waist, this sweet summer romper flattered every inch of my curves. I love the added detail of the lace trim, which softened the edge and gave a feminine flare. To add Bae to your inventory, activate your Apple May Designs group tag (25L join fee), teleport over to the shop, and tap the gift vendor.

Happiness is Walking Barefoot on the Beach
Oh how I love to feel the sand between my toes and the tickle of the waves as they lap the shore! Since the pupster and I spent a lazy morning at the beach, I opted to go barefoot today. For that added bit of pizzazz, I chose to slip on my new free Tribal Ankle Bracelets, which I scooped up as a gift over at Merlific. The group is not free to join, but this jewelry is so cute, it’s well worth the itty-bitty 10L fee.
I sure hope that you find a way to stay cool where you are. I won’t be venturing out for long in this heat in RL. Thank goodness for air conditioning! Until my next post, happy shopping!
Happy Sunday, Fabulouses! Ripley and I spent a lovely afternoon on the NorderNey sim, and even made a few new friends along the way. They graciously agreed to pose for my picture with me. Aren’t they just adorable?
Say Yes to the Dress
My gorgeous, antique white frock is a free gift from Lomomo. With plenty of ruffles and a bow, this dress features frothy lace over a solid sheath underneath. A belted high waistline draws the eye upward, while the skirt cascades down in a beautifully textured layer. I love the way the over skirt forms the shape of an inverted “V” trimmed with ribbon. Best of all, the Lomomo group is completely free to join, so this charming dress won’t cost you a single Linden dollar!

Happy Weekend Fab Free! I hope you’ve all been able to enjoy at least some of the weekend. My weekend has been good, and was made even better with two of my favorite things, shoes, and unicorns! Not to mention that they were both FREE group gifts for the month of June.
Sometimes all that really matters, are the shoes. This pretty pair of pastel blue heels with the ties at the ankles are a FREE group gift by Empire available to all “Friendship: The Hangout” group members. The shoes only come in the color shown, however there is a HUD that allows you to change the color of the sole, and the little metal accents.

To get your FREE pair of Empire shoes, just join the group and click the blue “Group Gift” sign at Friendship: The Hangout.
Now about those unicorns I mentioned. This cute little tire and pillows seat is the FREE June group gift at Chez Moi. The gift has 10 sit/lay poses. I absolutely adore the unicorn fabric on the center pillow, it’ll be too cute on my patio. The Chez Moi group is FREE to join. To get your copy, just head over to Chez Moi, join the group and click the gift vendor.
Here are the details, Enjoy!
Hair – +Spellbound+ Sweetsleep // Chapter I : Earth
Hello Fabulouses! Happy weekend to you! Ripley and I found a sweet free mini dress to share with you today, and combined it with some budget-friendly accessories to create my look. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Covered With White Lace
The foundation for today’s outfit is the light and airy Lace Mini from AlmaMiranda. The free, June gift for members of the AlmaMiranda group, this sexy little sleeveless number features a high collar and a creamy white hue. It hugs all your curves and offers a tantalizing glimpse of skin. If you are daring, you can just wear the dress alone. It is a bit see-through, so I chose to don a lacey lingerie set underneath, and pulled on a cropped denim jacket to cover up.

The Finishing Touch
For my one piece of jewelry, I slipped on the Bento Infinity Ring from Misha Jesuil, which I discovered for the promotional price of only 10L on the Marketplace. This simple, yet elegant thumb ring is designed only for Maitreya Bento hands and required no adjusting whatsoever. I’m not sure how long this special price will last, so if you would like to scoop up this charming bauble for yourself, I’d recommend doing so soon.
I hope you find time for some rest, relaxation, and shopping therapy for yourself this weekend. Until my next post, happy shopping!
