Had a great set of poses and needed to find an equally amazing outfit. Headed over to AMUI because I know she has a super duper range of styles and I sure wasn’t disappointed. I found this very cool jumpsuit which is the Third Life Group Gift so it was free! (the group is free to join as well)
Captain Proton to the Rescue! (oh wait…)
I felt like such a Marvel superhero fighting some epic sci fi battle in the future. I think Marvel needs to add her and make a movie. I need to think of a name for her, but I’m battling a yucky cold and my brain is foggggggggggggggg. You know the feeling I am sure.
As I said the jumpsuit is free just join the Third Life Group, and wear the tag. It fits:
Freya
Isis
Venus
Maitreya
Hourglass
Physique
Curvy
Fine

I’m getting ready to celebrate my 13th rezz day here in second life. (10.23) I still can’t believe it’s been 13 years! Why I was still a spring chicken back then!
How I Came to Second Life
We were in the process of selling our house and getting ready to move, and most things had been packed up, but I had my trusty little laptop. I don’t know where I was reading but I saw a mention of a virtual world called Second Life. I remember thinking, I wonder what a virtual world looks like! I had time to kill and my curiosity to lead me and in I dove.
I chose a perfectly practical name thank you, thinking that’s what you did in a virtual world (had I known better I might have called myself willowmoon or something dreamy like that.) and I’m only just checking it out anyway. I’ll probably only try it once or twice…
My earliest memories are of a lot of nekkid newbies jumping on each other and I was bemused. Little horny nekkid animated people. huh. Imagine my surprise a few days later when I realized they had anatomically correct ones too! (the boys, I mean) That was like Woah! ok then! lol
I wandered off to other areas and I found a house that was like a big log cabin and always empty so being clueless as I was, I would crash there (I was a squatter! LOL), it was so cute. I didn’t realize people had private residences, heck I dont know what I thought!
I started trying to put my avi together, back then, there were not nearly as many wonderful freebies as there are now, and what there was, wasn’t nearly as well made! (The Free Dove was actually around but it was much smaller than it is now!) I took some photos outside that house…. Want to see noob me? I warn you, it’s not pretty! But I did get myself some decent hair somehow. For back then anyway.
The grid has come a long long way since 2008 my friends. !!!!! This photo was taken right outside the cute house I used to crash in, I loved the little blanket area and the sparkly rainbows. Second Life seems so much more real now, with mesh and things look so much better!
13 Years Later!
So now lets talk about my new photo (stark contrast!!!) cause I’ve got an adorbs outfit for you from Lunar. My shorts, top and jacket are all part of the Chanty outfit which is a free group gift at Lunar (I love their stuff! I am *dying* for their Lamu Jacket in Pink!), and that group is free to join. The ensemble fits:
Freya
Hourglass
Legacy
Maitreya
Each item comes with a HUD so you can pick and choose colors and make the outfit uniquely yours.
My cute golden flower headband is also a free group gift, this time from Evie, and woohoo that group is free to join as well. Gotta love an entirely free cute outfit!
Tomorrow I think I will check out the fab free list of rezz day gifts, I always mean to and somehow always forget its my rezz day until it passes. Not this time! I need some goodies to blog too. As if I need a reason to find freebies!
Happy Weekend!

So after three days of trying, I finally got into FLF-O Ween. Yep, three days. Nearly landed me in the loony bin. Oops! Did I say *nearly*. I meant to say…. *clearly!* As you can see, my head is spinning quite a bit from all those teleports to nowhere via my retry HUD.
Oh yes, and I’ve donned my bunneh mask and grabbed my lucky bunneh voodoo doll for comfort too (any guesses who I am using it on? hee hee), oh and a perfectly *spooky* t shirt, so cute!
As a side note, I noticed lately, that spooky, sometimes becomes spoopy. What is the difference between the two? Spoopy to me sounds like what ghosts make when they use the little ghouls room. Be right back, I gotta take a spoopy! Or a speepy? That will be the word for next year, you just wait!
But I digress!
Back to the matter at hand. I’m showing y’all today the plethora of goodies I managed to spoop (erm I mean scoop!) up once I got into the Flf event.
My spooKy shirt (not to be confused with the little wet spoopy ones!) was so cute and that was a free gift (the gifts are free, but you do need to join and activate the Fifty Linden Fridays group, which is free to join) from Nectarine, and it fits Maitreya. My pants are a free gift from Jeune by Rowne. They fit:
Freya
Isis
Hourglass
Kupra
Maitreya
Legacy
Physique
My shoes are adorbs and they are from Schadenfreude, another freebie at Flf and they fit:
Belleza
Maitreya
Slink
Mask is from Aleutia (free). (lots of designers with tricky names lately!) My cute (and useful! wink wink) voodoo bunneh is by Luas (another freebie).
Lastly my backdrop was a 50L find by Milk Motion. There is much more to it than what I got to show here.
FLF-O-Ween runs til November 1st.

Just out for a nice autumn evening walk around the neighborhood. I love the light at dusk, when things are beginning to quiet down. The sun is tucking itself in for bed, and the stars are starting to peek out. It’s kind of magical really, a constant transition of the sky that we really only notice when day is turning into night and vice versa.
I also found the perfect downtime autumn outfit, this cute Fab Free Group Gift courtesy of our very own Fab Free designer, Blink 2 Wink. When I saw they had customized this for Fab Free, well, how could I resist? And who *doesn’t* want to feel fabulous, and look fabulous and *be* fabulous!
This cute ensemble is free and all you have to do is wear your Fab Free group tag and click the vendor! I tell ya, it doesn’t get any easier than that. Nosirreebob!

Hiya, It has certainly been an event-filled, super busy, week already. With no rest for the wicked so they say. Jacx must have been really wicked 😛
Got A Case Of Those Moving Day Blues
Back on the October 9th post, was telling you all about how I had just bought a new skybox, to take my fall show to the air here. Since Oct. 8th I have bought a total of 3 new skyboxes. LOL. What can I say, keep finding them on sale? It’s not that I don’t love my house, I do. But it’s pretty well set, and I do so love to decorate. So here is poor Jacx cramming a chocolate candy bar (large-sized you notice) and some sugary sweet caramel, whipped cream coffee drink, to keep the energy up for this move. Modeling [Flirt] Ana Pant Black for 1L @ the Orsy Event. These ruffled high-waisted pants really impressed me. The Orsy Event is running from Oct 6th- Oct 21st. Some of the pumpkins at the event need the Orsy Group, some do not, I just joined the free group for ease of picking up the goodies. Next up Palette Coffee Time Top, this sexy side-tied mock turtleneck is so sweet, comes in the black shown, and white is also included. (Sized for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Perky.) Available at Kustom9 Event for free, the event runs till Nov. 10th. The freeKustom9 group is needed to collect your goodies. Today’s winning shoe is KC Couture Nellie Wedges, with a 40 color hud that changes all parts of the shoe, plus a sweet little bow in the back. Shown by Arielle here, you can pick these up for free at Halloween Shop & Hop.

Just a quick post to let you all know about the brand spanking new Fab Swag at the Fab Free Headquarters. There is a vendor set up with crazy low prices and some fun Fab Free crop tops (we will add more swag down the road), all sales benefit Fab Free, plus there are a couple of freebies in the living room on the left hand side.
This post is not your typical before and after. Oh gosh I *do* love me a before and after, you know when they do makeovers? It is one of my fondest wishes to one day get a makeover by professionals. Alas. But I love a makeover, it’s always so exciting to see what changes they make and how awesome whomever or whatever they were working on came out!
This is kind of a reverse before and after to showcase the awesome goodies I got at the Arcade Event, courtesy of Pare’. Now, if you want to get all the juicy details of how the new system at the arcade works, I spelled it all out in my previous post here. With that out of the way, let’s get on to the fun stuff, the goodies! The machine for Pare’ is called Night Crawlers and is 75L a play and I had to come back on subsequent days to get both the outfits I was lucky enough to grab. The above was the pink, which I love. The below photo shows the Halloween version which I was lucky enough to get on my second day try. I was originally going to just blog the pink one, but when I got the Halloween one as well, I couldn’t resist combining the two.
So, what exactly do I call my before and after? The first photo, above, is before the Zombie Apocalypse, the second photo before is, well, after, obviously, and our brave heroine can tell she has become outnumbered and she is about to become Zombie herself. Notice how she is biting her lip in distress? So she has gone from geek chic to zombie hunter.
As I stated in my previous post, you choose the size you want to play for in the machine and I chose Maitreya Lara as that is what I wear.
Lessons learned by our lovely heroine… a gun works better than an axe when fighting zombies. Unfortunately.

When hinges creak in doorless chambers, and strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls. Whenever candlelights flicker where the air is deathly still — that is the time when ghosts are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight!
-Haunted Mansion Ride, Disney parks
Hey gang!
I’m back with some ghoulish delights of my own, found at the new style Arcade Event. The event has been updated from the old style gachas into a new system of its own, which has you grabbing a HUD as you enter, and which you wear while you shop. When you find a machine you want to play, you connect it to the machine. (don’t spend fifteen minutes trying to find it on the machines like I did at first, each machine is on a base and at the front of each base is two buttons, one to connect your HUD.)
Once you are connected, it will show you which item has been chosen for you to play for. If you want that item, you pay the machine (if you try to pay it without the HUD, it will refuse your money and send it back to you.), if not then disconnect and head to another machine. If you do play, you will get that item and the HUD will show you a new, random choice.
If you want to try again, you have to wait until the next day, as it will reset at midnight, and you can get new random numbers. If you try again that same day, you will get the same numbers. It’s kind of fun, really (and a bit addicting!).
So I lucked out on this play, the Mikunch machine where I got this cute dress (you choose the size you want to play for on certain machines), I chose Maitreya cause that’s what body I use. It comes with a HUD giving you a handful of color choices (black, white, red, pink). It’s only 75L a play.
This dress gave me sort of a “Bad Seed” sort of vibe, perfect for Halloween. She is just a sweet girl, right? Right?! Only time will tell!
Happy Haunting!

Oh!
Hey gang, I didn’t see you standing there (or sitting as the case may be!)
I am back with a bit more fun from the Swank Pumpkin Hunt! This is a hunt going on at the Swank Event and it is so much fun, so many great designers with goodies! The hunt is free, and although you are required to join the Swank group, that is free as well.
This time I have a super cute outfit from Brii Underground! This is a complete outfit, cute hat and everything, that is a hunt giftie at Swank. This is a fit for Maitreya only, but golly it’s cute! (yes, I said golly.) Since it is so cute, this, as you can see, is *not* one of my scary posts. Thought y’all could use a break! Don’t worry, I have more in the wings! You will just have to wait and see!
Has anyone seen my broom around? I need it to fly home!

I welcome you into my sl home on this Sunday morning, where I surround myself with all things pink (not the entire house, just this one room). This is my dressing room/office. You can’t see my desk in the photo, but it is there. It took a lot of time, searching and lindens to pull this beauty together and it was worth every minute of it. As Aline will tell you, if you can’t have it in real life, create it in second life! This is the room where all the magic happens, trying on outfits, deciding what you guys need to see, then styling, and finally coming back and putting it all together into a blog post.
Today however, I’m going a step further and taking my photo in here as well.
I found this gorgeous dress at the Swank Event Pumpkin Hunt. Now I am a blogger for Swank Event (along with my Fab Free duties!), but this time, I happily get to combine the two. This is a free hunt and there is a plethora of pumpkins hidden at booths at the event. You do need to join the Swank Group, but it is free to join.
This dress is courtesy of Zoom, one of my favorite designers, and comes with a HUD with ten color choices. I chose my least favorite color (ha ha).
It fits:
Freya
Hourglass
Isis
Maitreya
Physique
Venus
Swank Event runs until the end of the month as as there are both fashion as well as home and garden designers, your gifts will have a perfect variety of both things! I’m still going through everything I got!
