Athy Designs Cart Sale

Welcome back to the blog Fab Free’rs! So I decided to blog outside my comfort zone and show some furniture items from The Cart Sale happening at The Wash. As far as I am concerned The Cart Sale is the perfect opportunity to redecorate without breaking the bank. I picked up quite a few furniture and decor items up at the Athy Designs cart. Starting with the furniture and some of the decor shown in this summery setting.

Beachy Keen

With the help of a fun beach themed backdrop by Focus Poses I was able to use this cute wicker furniture by Athy Designs to create this fun outdoor oasis. The wicker lounge, matching table, and potted palm are all part of a 10 linden set at the Athy Designs cart. I also picked up the matching wicker chair, table, and small potted plant to the right in another 10 linden set from the Athy Designs cart. Additionally, the cute lotus flower candle is also part of 10 linden candle decor set at the Athy Designs cart. Each of the items are copy-able so you can set out multiples of each item.

Office Dreams

If the beach isn’t your scene, there are other equally well done items at the Athy Designs cart. All the items you see in the above office setting are part of a single 10 linden “Mesh Executive Desk Set.” The desk, chair, lamp, mirror, desk books, floor plant, cabinet, roses, and cabinet books are all included in this single set for 10 lindens. There is also a smaller version of the vase full of roses intended to sit on the desk. As with the other items from Athy Designs, these are all copy-able. I personally love the detail and style of this set. The textures are beautifully done, and the 10 linden price just cannot be beat!

Here are the details, enjoy!

B-Ball

A Tickle Trunk of Goodies!

In the group notices of the Vive9 inworld group , you will find three FREE group gifts STUFFED with fatpacks (13 fatpacks to be exact!) of ladies hair, clothing items, footwear and accessories by Vive Nine, Fiore and Ryvolter!  All of these eclectic goodies touching all different genres of style made me think of Mr. Dressup’s Tickle Trunk where he stored endless amounts of random items to make up the costumes used for the skits on the show.  You’ll see… my next post is all the way on the other end of the fashion spectrum lol.  Whatever your personal style is, I’m sure you’ll find something you like!

My Sporty Look Using Three Gifts:

I put my sporty B-Ball look together using three of the gifts in the lot.

• Fiore Allana:  This hairstyle comes with a regular version and a flip, for ease of use with clothing items and poses and offers a full range of hair colours.
• Ryvolter Aria Denim Jacket: Fitted for the Maitreya mesh body and may work with others.
• Vive Nine Jacky Jersey Dress: Comes in XXS – L mesh sizes + alpha layer.

Where to get this stuff

You won’t find this gift in any of the three stores inworld…  Where to find it is in the past notices of the free to join Vive9 inworld group.  You can join the group by copy and pasting this link into local chat:  secondlife:///app/group/0709215a-63e0-554d-060d-f052a3a41911/about

I’m Not Leaving The Beach And You Can’t Make Me

Hey there Fabulouses!  It would seem after doing three swimwear posts in a row this week that I have no interest at all in leaving the beach!  We have been seeing some wonderful swimsuits as free  gifts recently either through group gifts or hunt prizes and another one just popped up in my view, this time by Belle Epoque!

Go Back In Time With Daisa

Belle Epoque’s group is currently 10L to join and after you activate your group tag you can pick up the retro Daisa Two Piece Swimsuit that comes in one fitmesh size with texture change HUD that allows you to switch between six different fun beachy textures on both the top and the bottom.  Mix and match if you like!  I have included the vendor ad below so you can see all six textures shown as I am just wearing the one – pineapple print 🙂

Additionally…

I also wanted to mention that Belle Epoque has moved to a new location, so make sure you use the SLURL in this post to visit, and check out their 100L sale!

Just a Girl and Her Horse

Hello Fabulouses!  Ripley and I continued to work our way through the Country Girl Hunt at Brii Underground, and we discovered the stylish Fabiola outfit.  Just like the Keli dress I showed {HERE} yesterday, this hunt gift will deck you out from head to toe…all for only 1 little Linden dollar.  I love the combination of turquoise and brown, especially on the embroidered vest, which offers a sexy peek at the skin on my midriff.  Snug fitting jean shorts emphasize the length of my legs and hug every curve, while the dangling strands of the belt offer a playful bit of movement.  The feathered cowgirl hat coordinates perfectly with the colors of the vest, and offers a welcome respite from the rays of the sun.  Polished brown boots with silver adornments finish off the look.  This rancher is ready to lead her horse to water….. in style!

What’s Included:

• Fabiola Vest in XXS, XS, S, M, and L
• Fabiola Shorts in XXS, XS, S, M, and L
• Alpha layers for classic avatars
• Maitreya Applier for Tights and Gloves (I left my hands bare)
• Omega Applier for Tights and Gloves
• Slink Applier for Tights and Gloves
• Omega Applier for Fabiola Make Up – Catwa Head (not shown)
• Make Up Tattoo layer for classic avatars
• Fabiola Hat
• Fabiola Scarf (not shown)
• Fabiola Boots
• Fabiola Belt
• Optional Light (not shown)

All ten of the dollarbie gifts in this hunt are up for grabs until May 31st, so you have plenty of time to do some sleuthing of your own.  With Ripley’s talented nose, and the hints available by clicking the hunt sign in the Brii Underground store, locating all the rearing horses really didn’t take too long at all.  Since each package contains a complete outfit, you will come away with a versatile wardrobe perfect for a day on the farm, or a day of casual shopping.  Until my next post, happy shopping hunting!

Irish Eyes Are Smiling

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

~Traditional Gaelic Blessing

 Kiss Me, I’m (Really) Irish

I know, Carson already said that. But I’m saying it, too. 😉

My grandmother was 100% Irish, and it was her grandparents who immigrated from Ireland during the potato famine years. I grew up hearing plenty of Irish quotes and sayings, my favorite of which was, “May you be in heaven a full half-hour before the devil knows you’re dead.” I’m not exactly sure how that works, but to this day, I still hope I can do it! 😀

But hey, enough of my family history… on to the free stuff!

Let’s Get This Party Started!

This sexy, little dress is a free subscriber gift from Nerido. No group space is required; just hit the subscriber button and wait for your gift. I’ll admit that it actually took several hours to receive mine – I don’t know if this was an SL glitch or just a slow delivery system. But if you don’t receive your gift right away, just be patient.

The dress comes in this cute shamrock and horseshoe design, as well as a solid green version, and is sized for:

• Belleza Freya and Isis
• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique and Hourglass

The Wearing of (More) Green

I kind of picked up these shoes by accident. I was hopping around the grid looking for something festive to wear and found myself at Precious Designs. Apparently, I clicked on a Mini Mania board because the shoes showed up in my inventory a few hours later – yay! They are sized to fit Slink High Feet only, but they do come with a 10-color texture change HUD, making them super versatile.

Note: the Mini Mania boards at Precious Designs change, and these particular shoes were not available when I went back today to take a look. But the shoes that were available are just as cute, so be sure to hit the board anyway.

My earrings and bracelets are by Heartsdale Jewellery as a free group gift for The Weekly Limited. Again, finding them was a bit of an accident. I had dropped in at the store to look for a different gift and found the pretty Green Goddess set instead (there is also a matching choker). Must be the luck of the Irish! 😀

Last but not least, my shamrock glasses are a free gift from Boutique 187. No group is required; just pay the 0L. Touch the glasses to activate the resizer.

Enjoy the rest of your St. Patrick’s Day! Sláinte mhaith!

Let Your Hair Down… Or Not!

Truth Hawks of Truth wants you to have the choice to let your hair down or not, and he wants you to  have that choice for free!  He has just sent out his new group gift for February and it includes full fatpacks of colours in the Char (up-do) and HoneyAna (side messy braid) as shown in my photos below.  I really like both of these so much, I probably would have purchased them, so I am really glad I had joined that VIP group!  If you are not currently in the group, it will set you back 300L, however based on previous gifts you won’t be feeling financially stung a bit!

A Dozen Eggs

Sometimes all you need is a day in the countryside with the fresh air, sunshine, and a good friend. Days like that can make all the difference in the world. Considering the time of year, nothing says outdoorsy springtime fun like an Easter egg hunt. Love spent little time with me, and these goofy geese to show of some of what we found on the Easter egg hunt at Petite Mort. There are 12 eggs hidden all around the Petite Mort grounds. Each egg costs 1 linden and contains part of an undeniably cute spring wardrobe. You’ll find everything from sunglasses to skirts, and all of it adorable. Wanna know exactly what you’re getting? No problem. I’ve included a copy of the Petite Mort Easter Egg Hunt Key below.

Holiday Selfies

So after the impromptu snowball fight the other day, I bet Love thought she’d got me showing up with a Rudolph nose and antlers for the photos of the Christmas group gift from Agapee. Really, she just looks darn adorable and the photos are great. There is so much emphasis on family around the holidays that it’s good to focus on friendships too. Friends are often every bit as important as family. These adorable dresses from Agapee were a perfect opportunity for us to dress up and take some photos. Sure, matching outfits may be a little silly, but who cares, that’s half the fun! The dress is fully mesh, including the arm-warmers, and there is a color change hud to change the shirt and skirt separately. Additionally the dress comes in several size/fit options for the perfect fit. The Agapee group is FREE to join and the gift is FREE with your group tag. This dress would be perfect for a holiday outing with friends, or a casual date!

Speaking of the cute glowing red nose and matching antlers Love has on, they are a recent subscribo gift from Hopscotch. You can get this cute holiday accessory for FREE just by heading over to Hopscotch and joining their subscriber. It really is cute and is perfect for adding some holiday fun to punch up your outfit and your photos.

Additionally, I stopped back by the White Elephant Fair for this pretty manicure set with matching rings from ZOZ. The whole love of nail polish is just part of my obsession with makeup! It spans both real life and Second Life. So that you can get a better look at the gift, I included a copy of the ad photo below. You’ll find this gift from ZOZ under the big Christmas tree at the White Elephant Fair for just 1 linden. Included in this pretty present are nail appliers for Maitreya, Slink, and Belleza nails, and a right and left version of the ring.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Aris Here Aris There, ArisAris Everywhere!

Happy Sunday Fab Free! I know that April doesn’t quite mean bikini weather for everyone. For those still battling the cold weather, ArisAris has a super cute dollarbie sweater-dress out at FashionStation. This warm and cozy looking “words” dress is fully mesh and comes in standard sizes. There are little details that make the dress both cute and unique. The writing is readable and there are little holiday sayings like “peace on earth” and “let it shine”. There is also a cute detailed belt and a pretty cowl neck style collar.

In addition to their dollarbie gift at FashionStation, ArisAris also has a dollarbie gift out at the Gangster Fair. The dollarbie is this pair of color-blog wedge sandals. The shoes are meant to be worn with Slink Mid feet. Not only are they very cute on, I felt they had just enough red and purple to match with the dress. Considering the dress and shoes cost a total of 2 lindens, I think Pru turned out pretty cute! I hope you think so too.
