Soon, It Will Be Slothoween!

Hello there, Fab Free! With the new month, we have a bunch of hunts that got started, and I eagerly hit the trail of The Boo Bunny Hunt this week. My favorite prize of all is this adorable tank top. It makes me smile every time I see it, and I picked it up for just a small fee (plus a bit of time spent searching).

I’ll Do it Tomorrow…

…at least that’s what I imagine the sweet-faced critter on my new shirt from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. might be saying as he gives us a friendly wave. The Slothoween Tee features a cute creature lounging atop a carved pumpkin, brightly colored autumn leaves, and a crescent moon in a star-filled sky. The vibrant colors really pop against the dark background! With its narrow shoulder straps and slightly cropped hem, I’d be grabbing a jacket in real life when wearing this top, but hey, this is SL, and it’s all good 🙂 The prize folder contains an alpha layer and sizes for classic avatars, as well as versions for a variety of mesh body types. Each item in The Boo Bunny Hunt costs one Linden dollar, and you’ll be searching for pieces of wrapped candy. You have until Slothoween, er I mean Halloween, to collect some amazing prizes.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility

• Mesh in XS, S, M, L, and XL (includes alpha layer)
• Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
• Ebody
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• Ocacin
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• TMP
• Tonic Curvy and Fine

Jack O’Lanterns Shining Bright

Over at satus Inc., I found these Halloween Pumpkin Earrings that were the perfect accessory for my outfit as a free group gift. They come in gold, green, and red, and are sized for female and male avatars. While in the shop, I also picked up an older free group gift to round out my look – charcoal-colored Stella Leggings. Inside the folder, you’ll find sizes for classic avatars as well as mesh body types. There is a 25 Linden dollar join fee for the satus Inc. group, but with thirty-two (yes thirty-two!) other group gifts, it’s well worth the price.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility

• Fitmesh in XS, S, M, L, and XL (includes alpha layer)
• Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
• Maitreya
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• TMP

Until my next post, happy hunting!

Hey my Fab Folks! Are y’all all most done with the FabFree St.Paddy’s Day Hunt? You better be flyin’ around grabbing those prizes quick ’cause it’s almost over!  Y’all may know, I’ve been around Second Life for a loooong time now and Hunts are one of my most favorite things to do. So I’ve done a ton of hunts. And, seriously, this hunt has some of the nicest prizes I’ve seen on a Hunt! Really good stuff, like……

This super cute Irish-y costume from BWC. The “St. Patrick’s Day” outfit comes in three pieces so you can wear each one separately. I always like this feature because I tend to mix and match a lot. The build is awesome and I think it’s just the cutest thing! You’ll need to pay the hunt item 1L but you’ll be refunded immediately. So grab a green beer and enjoy the festivities. ‘Cause us Irish girls… we celebrate the ‘Green’ allll year long!

Over the fields of snow

Hello, FabFree! I know Christmas is over but a bunch of designers have left their gifts out for us slowpokes to pick up. Like one of my absolute favorites – Teegle.  You know I love my Teeglepets and I’m always on the look out for new gear for  them.  So I was thrilled when I found the loaded Christmas tree at the Teegle main store was still up.

There is a ton of freebies under the Teegle tree but this on is just so special. This is the Snow Drifter Sleigh from Out on a Whim. This classic Cutter Sleigh comes in several versions. One for Horse avatars, one for Teeglepets, one for wearable horses, even one for just display. It’s a beautiful build and I am just so excited to hook Mystic up and go dashing through the snow!

Now, I do NOT know how much longer the gifts will be available over at Teegle. So get over there and scoop  ’em up while you can. Even if you don’t want this sleigh, there are tons of other goodies. Like blankets, tack and skins for your ponies!

Fallen

Oh I do love the Halloween hunt season here on the Grid. I am constantly amazed by the talented designers and the awesome clothes and jewelry and items they give us. For…free! I’ve done just enough building on second Life to know that this stuff is NOT easy so I hope you all thank your favorite designers and spend a Linden or two while you hunt.

SO, let’s talk Hunts. I’ve been bopping all over the Grid this week on Fallen gods Prophecy Hunt. Now, you only have until the 31rst to grab the HUD and finish the Hunt but that’s easily done. The Prophecy Hunt is a bit of a different breed of Hunt. First, you collect the Hunt HUD at the Fallen gods Sim. While you’re there, be sure to take a look at the special faire going on there.  Anyway, grab the HUD and teleport to the first store, find the hunt object ( An all – seeing eye) then you teleport to the next store. You don’t get the prize for each store till you complete the entire Hunt. The last teleport takes you to a massive prize room where you can pick and choose which ever free prizes you want or click the central pillar to receive all the prizes at once. Now, I know this sounds odd… but it works. The hunt objects are the fun challenging not the pull your hair out Twisted Hunt challenging. There were a couple of store that were… um… rather difficult. But, in the end, it was worth the frustration.

Having said all that… ya’ll still here… okay… Let’s look at some prizes.

My gorgeous gown is from Secrets of Gaia, this is the Asteria gown and it is stunning. I know my photo is gettin’ kinda artsy so I’m tossing the hunt photo for the prizes so you can see them. But I don’t think the Hunt photo does it justice. This thing is swoon worthy!

Sizes Included

• Belleza – Freya, Isis
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• SLink – Hourglass, Physique 

My new jewels are from On a Lark. The ‘Gotland Orb’ s included HUD has 14 choices of jewel color and three metals. I foresee using this one a lot!

Lastly, I have a nifty new toy: The Prophecy Star from Jinx. The Star has it’s own hold animation and it revolves and drifts in a random dance over your hand. It’s really fascinating to watch.

So… go grab your HUD and get hunting. Hmmm the veils of the other world are parting and I forsee ….. you! In the prize room… grabbing your 55 absolutely free fantastic prizes!

Crowned

Hello again, FabFree. After Aline’s post about all the great loot over at the Halloween Shop and Hop I had to go check it out myself. And if you haven’t gone over yet… why not? There are so many gifts, plus gachas and great deals to be had.

Crowning Glory 

Let’s start at the top, shall we. I am sporting the October Group Gift from Luas and it’s just spectacular! This is the Solar Crown and you can pick it up for free if you are a member of the Luas group. While there is a one time fee to join the group, it’s well worth it just for the tons of free gifts. There’s even a whole wall of past gifts to pick from. The crown comes with a HUD to change the colors of thermoses, the halo and the horns.

Hoppin’ an’ Shoppin’ 

Now for our Shop and Hop gifts. My new hair style is the free gift from Sintiklia called “Hazel”.  I love the wispy bangs which you can turn on and off if you please. You also get a HUD for the “Classy” set of 32 colors. Plus, you get a Tinter so you can get that perfect shade you want.

My new spell binding top and shimmery skirt are both from the “Fionna” gacha in the Annex shop. For just 25L per play, I was able to pull the top and the skirt in my favorite color: purple, of course! Now if purple isn’t your thing… Fionna comes in six colors for you to choose from.

Sizes Available

• Maitreya

The start of October

Hey There and Happy October, FabFree! I know I’ve mentioned how much I love Fall before. Now take that and add about a million percent extra happy cause it’s October and that means Halloween is on the way! Halloween is my jam, baby!  LOL and after all that you’d think I was showing a Halloween costume… but I’m not. I know, “Juli is a weirdo”. But we knew that. 🙂

I’m actually talking about one of my favorite free Fall/Halloween Hunts – The Kiyomizu Autumn Hunt!  This hunt takes place in the Kiyomizu shopping ‘mall’ which is dedicated to Asian designers and venders. I don’t read Japanese or Chinese so if I offend anyone, please forgive me. So many of the designers here offer wild, weird and funny stuff. You have to check it out!

Of course, there are also some really lovely things for the Hunt to find. Like… this one piece outfit from M*Motion. This is “Autumn Outfit” and you can get it for free as part of the hunt. This really is one piece so it’s a great quick on and off outfit.  One note, there is a logo on the top for M*Motion. Normally, I don’t like logo items and usually I won’t show them. But this logo is so faded out and light… it doesn’t bother me. But I feel I do need to mention it’s there.

No time is a good time for goodbyes

Hello there Fabulistas!  BF Store has had a lot going on lately with birthday celebrations and free gifts, and while the birthday celebration has ended, there is …  Another new group gift!  I hope you were able to join and stay in the group when it was free to join, but if not – you can still get in on the several group gifts available for a join fee of 99L.  In this blog post I am showing you a new group gift that you can obtain at BF Store!

Let’s Reflect

How cool is the reflective, shiny texturing on the Sara Top & Skirt Set, right? It reminded me of the shimmering mirror ponds at Tabara, so that’s exactly where I went for my photograph. I styled it as a summer dress, but I can see this going so many different ways.  I am wearing the red version, however it comes in both black and red (shown in the vendor ad below).

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Belleza Freya

The Sound of Hearts Breaking

Ah, mid-January.  You, and your cold winds and mounds of slush are just trying your best to make us sad, aren’t you?  I heard today on the radio that January 15th is the saddest day of the year, and is called Blue Monday.  HAVE NO FEAR, I’ve got all the free gifts to cheer you up!

Hearts Everywhere

Carson was saying HERE that we’re a month away from Valentine’s Day, and you bet your bippy that there are going to be heart themed things all over the place very soon!  This cute corset top is a free subscriber gift from Promagic.  Just TP over to their store, click on the subscriber and BOOM.  Gift.  This corset is part of a shiny set (it comes with a fairly revealing little set of undercrackers….) but I’m pairing it with a skirt to protect my modesty!  It fits Maitreya bodies like a glove!

Makeup Magic

A Fab Free reader tipped us off on this next find – Booty’s Beauty has a whole bunch of free group gifts just waiting for you to snap them up.  I’m wearing the Simple Smoke Eye that comes with an Omega applier.  On my lips is the “Stone” lipstick which also comes with an Omega applier.  There are all sorts of things for you to grab there (whether you’re looking for Catwa, Omega or Lelutka), as well as a few lucky chairs that cycle pretty quickly.  The group is free to join, making my makeup look completely free!  YAAAS.

Now, if you listen closely, you may just hear January huffing and puffing at the fact that we’re not more sad.  Better luck next time, January!

The Masked Soirée

I was invited to an exclusive masked soirée at the Manor.  The invite said “dress to impress”, and being someone who takes people at their word, I planned my outfit with aplomb.  There is nothing that will turn heads quite like a shiny bodysuit, and if it’s free, then who am I to complain?  I have to say, heads swiveled so fast in my direction, I wouldn’t be surprised if they all got whiplash!

Head-Turner

I found this hot little number at Belle Époque, where they have several great Lucky Letter boards set up outside.  There are so many fantastic outfits, but this one really fit the bill!  You can pick it up without joining any group for absolutely free, just wait for your letter to come up!  The bodysuit is a Maitreya Lara exclusive.

The gorgeous peacock feather mask is also available at Belle Époque and is one of the Fab Free Group Gifts!  All you need to do is activate your Fab Free tag, and click away!  The Fab Free Group is always free to join and new gifts are being added all the time!

Well, I’ve got a full dance card, so I’m off to dance the night away with some handsome suitors….
