Free as a Wren (err…Bird)

Free as a Bird
Hello Fabulous Readers!  I am so excited to join the Fab Free team!  I’ve been a long time Fab Free member, and it is a dream come true to blog for all of you.  I’m looking forward to sharing my fashion finds as I journey around the grid, so without further ado, let’s dive right in.

Birds of a Feather…

I don’t know about you, but I love it when I head to a store to pick up an item and just happen to spot another gift that I knew nothing about ahead of time.  It’s definitely a welcome added bonus!  That happened to me the other day when I followed Aline’s advice in her post here, and stopped by Ewa Boutique to pick up their latest Fab Free group gift.  Right away, I noticed the sleek Aghata dress vendor on the wall.  All I had to do was change my group tag to the FitMesh Fanatics group, tap the board, and pay zero Linden dollars …. easy peasy!  Since the group is free to join, my budget was just as thrilled as I was with my discovery.  This strapless frock hugs my curves and allows my shoulders to soak up some late summer sunshine.  The gift includes adorable lacing and ties on the sleeves, a texture change HUD, and a coordinating pair of Valkire heels.  If red is not up your alley, you have 11 other hues to select from.  I’m sure you will love this dress as much as I do!

Sizes/Mesh Body Compatibility:

  • Curvy
  • Fine
  • Freya
  • Hourglass
  • Isis
  • Maitreya
  • Physique
  • TMP
  • Venus
  • EBody

Until next time,

Fab Free Designer Friday 2.0 – 7 Deadly s[K]ins

It’s been a minute since we had a Designer Friday feature post on the blog, so even though it’s late in the day we are getting it done this week! For this post it’s all about skins, 7 Deadly s[K]ins to be exact. 7 Deadly s[K]ins has been an almost constant participant in the Fab Free community, which we of course love. So I am happy to be telling you all about this awesome shop. There are two floors of shopping at the 7 Deadly s[K]ins main store. New releases, gifts, and newer female skins are all on the first floor. The second floor is where you’ll find the male skins, discount skins, and some of the previous group gifts available for sale.

Along with their male and female skins there are lots of extras you can get to further customize your look. There are things such as freckles, makeup, body moles, cleavage options, and more that you can purchase at 7 Deadly s[K]ins. There’s also large number of skin-tones, most of which fall into a light to medium tone range. There are also lots of applier choices, and many of the skins are BOM. Additionally you can purchase shapes at 7 Deadly s[K]ins that are made specifically to suit their skins.

7 Deadly s[K]ins Store Group 

7 Deadly s[K]ins known for frequent and generous gifts for both male and female avatars. The group has a join fee of 295 linden. With the group tag you get exclusive sales, discounts, and gifts. Also, there are Mini Mania boards, camping chairs, and Lucky Letter boards that require the group tag to participate. Each month 7 Deadly s[K]ins offers a free male and female group gift skin. Currently there are also 2 7 Deadly s[K]ins Anniversary gifts with a full set of free skins in the boxes. You’ll find those gifts inside the entrance on the wall between the two doors. Current male and female group gifts are located behind the information desk.

The group only prize boards and camping chairs at 7 Deadly s[K]ins are mostly on the first floor. There are 3 total camping chairs (2 on the first floor, and 1 on the second) that offer gifts. The group only Mini Mania boards are on the first floor. There are 6 total boards with 5 female gifts, and 1 male. You’ll find Lucky Letter boards on both floors. There are 7 total boards, 2 of which have male prizes, and 5 of them have female prizes.  I also spotted a Lottery Board on the second floor that appeared to contain a 300 linden 7 Deadly s[K]ins gift card.

7 Deadly s[K]ins Fab Free Group Gift

The Fabulously Free in SL group gift at 7 Deadly s[K]ins is a pretty female skin called Mareike. She comes in 7 tones with Omega head/body appliers, and BOM layers. The Fabulously Free in SL group is required, however it is (and always will be) free to join. You’ll find this free gift waiting near the Midnight Madness boards on the first floor at 7 Deadly s[K]ins.

 

Other Gifts and Sales

7 Deadly s[K]ins is participating in the Saturday Sale with a female skin priced at just 70 linden per tone. There was another sales board, however there was not a current offer. Perhaps that’ll be a future offer. Toward the back of the store on the right side there are 2 Midnight Mania boards that are open to everyone, no group required. This area is also where you’ll find several gifts for other groups.

Sitting on shelves on the wall there are vendors with group logos. Each group has their own gift, which you can get by wearing the group tag for that group and clicking the vendor box with the corresponding group logo. I counted 9 total gifts including the gift for Fabulously Free in SL group members. There’s also a free Stay at Home Club gift on the first floor that includes the full Akyla skin with Omega head/body appliers, BOM layers, brow shaper, and a shape intended for Genus heads.

Fab Free Designer Friday 2.0 – Satus Inc.

Happy Friday Fab Free! Thank you as always for being here. I’m excited about today’s edition of Fab Free Designer Friday. Satus Inc. has participated as a Fab Free designer for quite a few years. It’s hard to describe the Satus Inc. store simply because they have so much to offer. This could almost be consider a “one-stop” shop. Really and truly there’s something for everyone.

At Satus Inc. you’ll find female fashion, poses, furniture, decor, gadgets and gizmos. The ladieswear at Satus Inc. is mostly comprised of casual dresses, though there are what I would call business attire dresses, and even a few cocktail type gowns. You’ll also see casual clothes like shorts, sleepwear, and t-shirts, along with shoes and some accessories. Most of the ladies clothing is upstairs.

As for the furniture and decor there is a wide range of indoor and outdoor furniture, with PG and Adult animations. I suggest taking a moment to really look around. You never know what you might find. There are also quite a few fun and useful gadgets at Satus Inc. Again, I strongly suggest planning a shopping trip to check out all this shop has to offer. Poses are under the stairs to the left, and the furniture is on the first floor to the right, with a little bit of everything else in between. Group gifts of all kinds are on the wall to the left in front of the stairs.

Satus Inc. Group

There are 30 group gifts for the Satus Inc. group. That’s not a mistake, the Satus Inc. group is just 25 linden to join and there are 30 total group gifts out at this time.

Joining the Satus Inc. group gets you instant access to all the gifts, and updates on future gifts and promotions.

Fab Free Designer Friday – 12/22/2017 – Bliss

Bliss Exterior
Happy happy Friday Fab Free’rs! This week we get some Bliss, no really, this Fab Free Designer Friday post is all about Bliss. The Bliss main store is on The Wash sim, which is all decked out for the winter holidays. You can even stop for a latte on your way into Bliss for a little pre-shopping pick-me-up! Bliss is a ladies clothing store with a full range of items from date night/girls night dresses to casual wear, and even some lingerie. I also noticed there is applier clothing, as well as mesh. There’s sure to be something to suit your fancy no matter what your personal style might be. Also, the purple Christmas tree in the  middle of the store is kind of awesome!
Bliss Gifts & Info
Just as you enter the Bliss store you’ll see a bright sign with the candy cane frame. It’s for the “Baby It’s Cold Outside” hunt. This hunt is kind of unique in that you can buy the hunt prize right then and there (see the hat and mittens) for 25 linden, or you can hunt for it and pay just 1 linden for the same prize.

To the left once you’re inside the shop you’ll see the Bliss counter, and just past that are the currently available group gifts. Among these gifts are the Bliss VIP group gift, a group gift for Fitmesh Fanatics, and of course the Fabulously Free in SL exclusive gift. For each of these groups you’ll need to wear the appropriate group tag. The Bliss VIP group is FREE to join at this time. Additionally, the Fab Free group is also FREE to join. You may even recall Love’s post “Waking Blissfully” in which she showed the current Fab Free group gift at Bliss. So don’t miss out on these FREEbie opportunities, or the fun hunt!

Snowball Sneak Attack

IzzieGotMeBeware!

I love wandering around Izzie’s Sim!  Izzie’s is ever changing with the seasons and there are plenty of critters about to enjoy all year long, but…  beware when you walk past this house in particular because Izzie Button herself will pelt you with 5 snowballs before you know what hit you, and then – she’ll shut the door and peek at you through the window, giggling!  I know this, because it just happened to me this morning!

Winter Casuals

I was glad to be bundled up in my winter gear so I could stay warm on the walk home.  I had just picked up this entire three piece “Casual Her Outfit” at #bye in the group gifts section on the back side of the wall just at the entrance as a free Fitmesh Fanatics group gift!  The Fitmesh Fanatics inworld group is free to join!

Outfit Includes:

  • Casual Her Jeans:  Fitmesh XS-XL + Alpha Layer, Lara, Physique, Hourglass, Freya, Isis & Venus

My photo does not do this hair justice…

At The Imaginarium Event, you will find that No.Match is participating and is offering the No Justice hairstyle as shown on my avatar as a 50L per play gacha item!  The cute hat comes with a texture change HUD that allows you to change the colour of the hat, brim and also the ears!  (Thanks to Izzy Christenson for sharing her extra!)

Under the Light of the Moon

Gazing up at the Moon
Hello Fabulouses!  The other day, while Ripley and I wandered through SL, he stopped, and gazed intently into the distance, then suddenly slipped from his collar.  He bolted away, leaving me holding a dangling leash, and the chase was on!  I finally caught up to him as he paced impatiently outside the Lucky Night Shop.  I tightened his collar up a notch, slipped it around his neck once more, then followed my hound with a nose for fashion over to the group gifts corner.  Sure enough, Ripley had discovered another Fabulous Find to share with our wonderful readers.

A Dreamy, Draped Dress

Ripley’s nose pointed straight at the free Moon Dress, which is the current gift for the FitMesh Fanatics group.  Following the pupster’s lead, I switched over to my FitMesh Fanatics tag (the group is free to join), gave the group gift board a quick tap, and became the proud owner of this lovely, free gown. With softly draped folds gathered by a simple black belt at the waist, this floor-length gown reminds me of a Roman goddess dress.  A delicate shade of mauve, paired with a plunging neckline, and a daring, scooped back, lend this frock a feminine air.  I love the way it frees my skin to softly shimmer in the moonlight.  Simple, yet elegant, this gown would be perfect for role play, or an evening of dancing under the light of the moon.

What’s Included:

  • Appliers for Belleza and Maitreya
  • Fitmesh in XS, S, M, L, XL
  • Alpha layer for fitmesh

Ripley and I traveled to The Gates of Melancholy, and spent a quiet evening contemplating the stars and moonlight.  I wish you peace in this sometimes-hectic holiday season.  If you are fortunate to have your family near you, I hope you take a moment to hold them close, and let them know how much they mean to you.  I discovered recently just how fragile life can be, and I’m glad I had let my loved ones know how much I care while I still had time to do so.  Until my next post, dear readers, happy shopping!

~Kat (and Ripley)
