Hello again, Fab Free! It’s been a minute (ok, waaaaay more than a minute) since I last posted. Real life threw me a bunch of curve balls and I had to take a break from SL, but I am over-the-moon happy to be back! I’ve missed writing for you and have tons of budget-friendly fashion finds to share, so let’s get to it!
Oh, These Dog Days of Summer…
In my mind, the only place to spend the hot, sultry, late summer days is at the beach. While Gus sniffed around for the perfect location for our getaway, I did what I do best – headed out for some retail therapy to pick up everything we needed. I found the sweetest itsy-bitsy tropical print Marisol bikini over at Just Imagine. This cute little number hugs your curves and features delicate, chain-like shoulder straps. The free gift for members of the Just Imagine group also includes color-coordinating sunglasses and a visor to protect your peepers from the glare. You have to be a member of the group to receive the gift, but it’s completely free to join.

That’s a Wrap
Next, I journeyed to AnaStyle to try my luck at the Follow-Up vendor there, hoping to score a chic cover-up to ward off the harsh rays of the sun. The Follow-Up board is filled with lots of summery goodies, all priced at 35L$, however, I had my eye on the oversized Malibu shirt. There are three color variations, all of which would complement the Marisol bikini well, but my favorite was the white. Luckily for me, that was the first prize available when it was my turn to play. For only 35L$, the Malibu top provides that added layer of protection and pairs perfectly with my suit. Its lightweight, translucent fabric lets your natural beauty shine through.

To the Beach!
With my outfit ready to go, all that was left to do was pack a few snacks, a couple of water bottles along with a collapsible water bowl, some Gus-Gus treatos, and my latest library book into my oversized straw bag. Then, my pal and I teleported to the dog-friendly shore over at Le Monde Perdu. Paradise found, indeed. Great work, Gus-Gus!
Until next time,
~ Wren (and Gus-Gus)
