I was planning a different post for today but I can’t let Love and Nevi have all the fun with the SL15B gifts, now can I? I’ve only made it into two of the four sims so far but I’m super impressed with everything that I’ve unpacked.
Fringe, yeah!
These shorts! OMG There is lacing up both sides and of course the fringe along the bottom. I didn’t play with them very much because I love them in black, but the various parts are color change as well. They are free from Ascend at SL15B and are sized for:
Freya
Hourglass
Isis
Maitreya
Slink
I’m not a hipster…
…I just play one sometimes on FabFree. haha OMG I love these freeglasses that AMD put out for SL15B sooooooo much. They are seriously adorable. Y’all I’m so gushy over these gifts that I can’t seem to find any actual adjectives. I’d like to think that I’m usually kind of, a little bit articulate but not so much today. Now all I can do is babble and throw out acronyms. I’ll have to let my picture do the talking.
Pssst My hair is only 1L and it’s one of my favorites! Have a look at the credits for details. Now I guess I need to go try to get into the other two SL15B sims. Peace out!

I was having a conversation with a friend about my “desert island” songs. Basically, you choose 7 songs that you couldn’t live without if you were marooned on a deserted island. They’re supposed to tell a story of what your life has been, through music. Naturally, I got onto YouTube as quick as I could and dove in, so I’ve been listening to music and remembering things all day. I am not ashamed to say that one of my most formative songs was “Wannabe” by the Spice Girls, because GIRL POWER!!!! Amirite? One of my favourite Spice Girls quotes ever is “Silence is Golden, but Shouting is FUN”, and I can’t think of a more apt thing to say about my outfit today! So, today because I’m feeling kind of loud, I found a fun bunch of goodies! Let me try as concise as possible and tell you about all the awesomeness…
Hair
Dude – go to Fabia. Seriously, go. Love told me of the goodies that lay there, and she wasn’t lying. Join the group for 100L and literally (well, figuratively…) get a million different hairdos that will have you unpacking until the cows come home! I chose the “Britney” hairstyle which features two gorgeous braids cascading down the back, and loads of colour options but there is so much more to choose from at Fabia!
Top
This black lace bustier is the most recent group gift from HEC. Join the group for 25L, and gain access to a hoard of awesome gifts. Pay the vendor 1L, and you’ll get it refunded. I really like this top because I can dress it up or down, and it’s just a whole lotta fun. Go get it!
Sizes
Maitreya
Hourglass

Small & Large Standard Sizes
Jeans
My fun animal-print and pastel jeans (that are open to quite a daring dip…eep!) are a group gift over at No Cabide. There’s a whole bunch of goodness to pick up there too, and the group is freeto join! These jeans come in an array of pretty pastel shades that are anything but demure! Oh, and bonus – there’s a matching pair of shoes in the box!

You know those TV commercials where people talk about their DNA test results? Well, mine shows that I’m more than a quarter Irish. So, St. Patrick’s Day is kind of a big deal in my house, and as you can see, I did a little celebrating last night at Hunny’s Pub.
And my outfit? I didn’t spend a single Linden, thanks to amazing gifts from the Finders, Keepers St. Patrick’s Day Hunt. I was able to find a dress, hair, necklace, makeup, and nails… all for FREE!
Oh, and I skipped the pint of Guinness because Hunny’s was serving a special St. Patrick’s Day cocktail that I’ll tell you about below (also free).
Luck of the Irish?
Not really, but I’m sure it doesn’t hurt. This isn’t a difficult hunt, but I’ll admit that some of the gifts are really well hidden!
The Hair
FABIA Mesh Hair set out this sexy, mussed ‘do as their St. Patrick’s Day Hunt gift. Adriana comes in a fatpack of colors and includes an alpha.
The Necklace
I love this shamrock necklace from Violetility, especially the Celtic-inspired design. The Leprechaun Necklace comes in one size and does not include a resizer, but it is modifiable so you can right-click > edit > stretch if you need to change the size.
The Dress
My dress was the gift from Decoy. The Lillie Dress comes in grass green, as well as the shamrocks version that I’m wearing. It is sized for Maitreya and Slink Hourglass mesh bodies.
The Makeup & Nails
I stopped at LIVIA to grab their gift: the Envy Eyeshadow & Nail Appliers. 3 different eyeshadows are included, with appliers for Catwa, LeLutka, Omega, and tattoo layers for classic avatars.
The nails include 5 different designs for hands and feet, with appliers for Maitreya, Slink, Vista, and Omega-enabled Bento hands.
The Drink
No St. Patrick’s Day party is complete without an adult beverage, right? And thankfully, ChicChica was serving up exactly what I needed. The St. Patrick’s Day Special Cocktail comes with a sprig of mint and a lucky four-leaf clover charm on the straw. Just what you need to quench your virtual thirst! 😀

Belated happy holidays to you, fabulous readers! 😀
Whatever you celebrate, I hope you are having a wonderful, restful holiday season. I’ve been enjoying some quiet time at home with my family, as well as catching up on DVR’d TV shows that I hadn’t had time to watch. Not very exciting, but definitely what I needed.
Gifts Galore
If you’re a Maitreya Lara body wearer, you’ll want to run – not walk – over to the Maitreya mainstore. Earlier this week, not one, not two, but SEVEN gifts were put under the Christmas tree for members of the Maitreya V.I.P. in-world group. The gifts are special Christmas editions of Maitreya classics that had not yet been updated for Lara mesh body, and I’m wearing two of them here today.
I’ve been wearing this super-sexy draped dress for a couple of days and getting compliments wherever I go. The lovely Maitreya Mignon Evening Burgandy dress dips low in the back and hugs your curves in all the right places.
I paired the dress with the Maitreya Gold Shanti Burgandy heels for Maitreya high feet. The wrapped leather ties in the back and is a perfect match with the Mignon dress.
Keep in mind that these are gifts for wearers of the Maitreya Lara mesh body. They may or may not fit other mesh bodies (especially the shoes), but it might be worth a try.
According to the notecard (still in the notices), more updates of previous Maitreya items are coming, as well “some exciting newness concerning the Lara mesh body.” I can’t wait to find out what that last one is!
Bejeweled
If you’re a member of the Kunglers in-world group, you should have received a gorgeous Christmas gift in your group notices.
The Simone necklace and earrings set has dainty flowers of ruby and diamond and makes a “statement” without upstaging the Maitreya dress.
If you don’t find the gift in your group notices, you can head over to the Kunglers mainstore to pick up a copy.
Beautiful Betty
FABIA Mesh Hair recently set out this cute Betty hair as a Christmas gift. The gift includes a fatpack of colors, as well as a styling HUD which will give you 5 different styles to choose from.
FABIA is also offering a 30% discount on all items in the store through January 7th.
Enjoy! ❤

Oh Hello Fab Free’rs! I’m feeling very girly today, princess-like even thanks to this pretty floral dress and matching shoes from NSP Florals. The gifts at NSP Florals have always been generous, so I was not at all surprised to see that the shoes came with this beautiful pink dress. I can’t help but imagine a romantic date on a warm summer evening dancing and laughing in this dress. I also love the added detail of the straps on the bodice. The NSP Florals group has a one time join fee of 125 lindens. In addition to this June group gift, there are group only lucky letters, and you can purchase a few of the previous group gifts for just 5 lindens each.
Since my laptop has continued to be in a good mood (though I was really pushing my luck during this shoot, to be honest) I decided to put those long neglected landmarks to use and visit another picturesque sim. A quiet stroll through beautiful countryside called for proper footwear (wouldn’t want to go tripping and rolling into a ditch) and it was the perfect time to slip on these pink pair of high top sneakers that I’ve accommodated for myself recently from Graffitiwear. Not only are they free but they’re part of the full outfit that you see in the picture above.
This adorable and high-quality t-shirt, skirt and sneakers combination is a gift for Valentine’s Day that Graffitiwear has most generously set out. There is no group tag needed for you to grab this outfit for your virtual wardrobe though since freebies like these can be fleeting and I’m not sure how long this gift will be out for, I suggest you do it ASAP. Here are the sizing details:
Knotted t-shirt:
Five Fitmesh sizes (XS-XL)
Knotted t-shirt alpha layer
Skirt:
Five standard mesh sizes (XS-L)
Skirt alpha layer
Sneakers:
Sneakers alpha layer
Sneakers shoe base
I’m wearing the sneakers without the use of my Slink feet and they fit like a dream. While you’re at Graffitiwear, do consider joining their group (the joining fee stands at 5L) or their subscribers group to stay in touch with the great deals going on at the store. There’s also a steady stream of gifts and other perks that make joining the group worthwhile.
A new day a new hairstyle
While waiting for my blind date to turn up ( the date was a bust, by the way, I’ll tell you the story some other time) I passed the time by looking into the Marketplace and came across this beautiful mesh hairstyle from Fabia. Long and flowing and elegant the Rima hair was just up my alley and it didn’t hurt that it only cost 1L. You’ll also get a hud of thirty natural colors to choose from a fact that certainly made me less huffy that he was running late.
Well, that’s a wrap for today. I have more of this countryside to explore so catch you guys later!
