A Bit of September Birdwatching

Hello Fab Readers!  I hit the hunt trail again this weekend and discovered a cheery dress that I picked up completely for free.  All I had to do was invest a small amount of time doing some “birding” (more on that below) and it was completely worth it.

Packed with Options

This vibrant frock is the first free hunt prize from GGVG in The Free Dove’s September Hunt.  It features an off-the-shoulder fit, layered sleeves, and a slightly flared skirt.  In addition, the generous designer included a texture change HUD with 20 bold selections for the floral print.  Honestly, it was hard to choose my favorite one for the photo!   There are five gifts from GGVG concealed on the Free Dove sim (I found this beauty there) and an additional 5 scattered throughout the GGVG main store location.  In order to collect the items, you need to be a member of The Free Dove group, but it’s completely free to join.  You’ll be searching for a small, reddish-brown, and yellow feathered friend.  The hunt runs through September 30th.

• Classic – M (no alpha layer)
• Fitmesh – M
• Belleza Frey, Isis and Venus

A Vintage Goth

I have a bit of a “vintage goth” look going on today, so I decided to chill and take a picture by this gorgeous stained glass window inside this spooky, dark-lit room. I just love this type of style so I’m excited to share these finds with you today. 

FabFree Gift @ Furtacor

First up is this awesome Jesabel Dress, which is a free fatpack at Furtacor. This one is a FabFree group gift, and it’s simply gorg! Simply join our FabFree group and click the package at Furtacor.

There is  LOAD of free gifts from this designer, and a few for just the FabFree group members! Yay!

There are a few more freebies added to this look to create that dark, vintage vibe. I will list them to make it easier on the eyes!

• The gorgeous pearls around my neck are a dollarbie at Lorien. They’re beautes. 
• The pearl headband is yet another free group gift at Cae. Remember that Cae is closing at the end of the month, so make sure you go over there and get all the gifties before they disappear! The headband can be resized. 
• The spiky hoop earrings are a free lucky board gift at Sn@tch, no group required. 
• The adorable rainbow eyes are a free gift on the Marketplace by Nimu. I am wearing the BOM version of the eyes, but these also include appliers for Genus, Lelutka, and Omega. 
• The gorgeous black lipstick comes from an amazing 1L deal on the marketplace. This is a lipstick applier made specifically for Lelutka Evolution heads made by Bellucci. The “Her Glossiness” pack comes in several other natural lip gloss tones tones!

Enjoy, FabFree!

Evening, FabFree! I hope you’re all having a wonderful night! It’s almost Friday and I’m happy… this week needs to be over so I can have a fun weekend and party it up. Let’s dig into the details of how to get this amazing outfit and shoes at discounted prices.

Rock It

I absolutely had to have this shirt and shorts set from Ari-Pari. This is the Retro Music Outfit on the Rock Hunt. The hunt item is only 1 L, and the hint to find the item is, “look for me under the archway of lights!”. The set comes in 5 top colours and 5 short texture options. There are cute little video cassettes on the shorts- so old school! I love it. ❤

Sizes Included

• Physique
• Hourglass
• Lara

Chija

The second awesome deal I want to share with you today is these great shoes at the Lybra VIP store. The shoes cost 65L per pair and they come in pink and yellow colours. I believe non-VIPs can buy these shoes at this discounted price. What a great deal!

Sizes Included:

• Kupra
• Belleza

Foxy Lady

Welcome back to the blog Fab Free’rs. For this post I’ve got some January group gifts to share with you that have me feelin’ foxy. Maai and MINIMAL both have free group gifts for the month of January that you will not want to miss. Keep reading for the details and more of my banter.

Maai 

Yes, that little fox pun was absolutely intended. I do think there’s sometimes a stigma around being an adult and wearing cutely patterned or styled clothing. I however don’t particularly care for them. I love the little fox faces on this slip of a dress from Maai. Truth be told when I put this dress on I got that Jimi Hendrix song stuck in my mind. “…And you know, you’re a sweet little lovemaker, Foxy…”

The Maai group is free to join, making this group gift completely free as well. All you need is a group space.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara/Petite, Kupra, MeshBody Legacy/Perky, Alpha Layer also included

MINIMAL

I’ve picked up several of the MINIMAL group gifts in the past, but I think this January group gift backdrop is my favorite. It has such a feeling to it that I’m not sure how to describe. It’s simple enough to serve as a setting for just about any sort of scene, and has the right feel for something modern romantic or old-world fantasy.

The MINIMAL group has a join fee of 250 linden, and there are past group gifts available as well as this January 2021 group gift.

Winter Prima Donna

There’s nothing I love more than an elegant gown and it looks even more majestic in the snow! I will admit, though, I would never wear such a beautiful dress out in the cold in real life but it does look splendid in SL.

A Holiday Hunt at Poet’s Heart

Poet’s Heart has a Holiday Hunt out at the moment, and it’s completely free! You are looking for the little green fairy hats hunt item (seen below in the vendor advertisement). The hunt ends on January 3rd, so you only have 2 days to collect these lovely gowns! There are 8 hunt prizes in total. I am currently wearing the Prima Donna Gown and all the gowns are sized for Maitreya bodies only.

Here are the hints to help you collect your free hunt gifts…

⚫ Hmm.. I wonder if Santa left something for me?

⚫ David Eddings wrote about me in the Elenium and the Tamuli

⚫ Within Temptation sings about this irish lass

⚫ I’m so cheap, yet not completely free

⚫ When a dress just ain’t enough…

⚫ Toss a coin to your witcher…

⚫ I might be a fan of Tobias Forge

⚫ Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

 

Make sure you grab all the free group gifts at Poet’s Heart while you are there! The group is free to join. There are some beautiful elegant gowns and roleplay items out for all.

Update: I have discovered that there is also a free gift, separate from the hunt, at Poet’s Heart under the tree. Just click the present box that is on sale for 0L and then you have another freebie! Yay!

Thanks for reading, Fab Free!

Dreaming of More Christmas on Boxing Day

Hey, Fab Free! Are you still feeling Christmassy? I know I am, and I have more Christmas outfits than I know what to do
with. I will be showing you a lovely free Christmas dress, as well as a jewelry set you can pick up for only 1 Linden.

Dreaming of a white Christmas…

Even if you didn’t get the white Christmas you were dreaming of, Dreams has a wonderful Christmas dress out for you all. The Dreams VIP group is currently free to join. There are 2 free dresses out for women and a free Christmas sweater for men! Just look for the Christmas tree in the store and you will find the gifts there. Time to deck the halls on boxing day with these sweet finds! Dreams is normally a paid group, so jump in this group and grab all the gifts in the gift room for free!

The jewels…

This lovely jewelry set I have on is for M&M Style. I got it at the front of the store and it is part of the Fleur gift package. To get the gift, I needed to join the M&M Style group which only costs 1 Linden to join. Like many of M&M Style‘s outfits, it comes with shoes, an outfit (in this case, a jumpsuit), and jewelry. It is a full set and one of the reasons I love this designer’s clothes is because you get so many things wrapped in one box that match so well together. I posted a picture of the full outfit below so you can see what the jumpsuit and shoes look like in the package! You will also be able to grab a few more gifts by joining the group. There are lucky letter boards upstairs if you need even more freebies.

Have a great Boxing Day, Fab Free!
