Had a great set of poses and needed to find an equally amazing outfit. Headed over to AMUI because I know she has a super duper range of styles and I sure wasn’t disappointed. I found this very cool jumpsuit which is the Third Life Group Gift so it was free! (the group is free to join as well)
Captain Proton to the Rescue! (oh wait…)
I felt like such a Marvel superhero fighting some epic sci fi battle in the future. I think Marvel needs to add her and make a movie. I need to think of a name for her, but I’m battling a yucky cold and my brain is foggggggggggggggg. You know the feeling I am sure.
As I said the jumpsuit is free just join the Third Life Group, and wear the tag. It fits:
Freya
Isis
Venus
Maitreya
Hourglass
Physique
Curvy
Fine
Info on the poses below, if you like to take photos, you *need* these. I had such a blast with them.

I’m getting ready to celebrate my 13th rezz day here in second life. (10.23) I still can’t believe it’s been 13 years! Why I was still a spring chicken back then!
How I Came to Second Life
We were in the process of selling our house and getting ready to move, and most things had been packed up, but I had my trusty little laptop. I don’t know where I was reading but I saw a mention of a virtual world called Second Life. I remember thinking, I wonder what a virtual world looks like! I had time to kill and my curiosity to lead me and in I dove.
I chose a perfectly practical name thank you, thinking that’s what you did in a virtual world (had I known better I might have called myself willowmoon or something dreamy like that.) and I’m only just checking it out anyway. I’ll probably only try it once or twice…
My earliest memories are of a lot of nekkid newbies jumping on each other and I was bemused. Little horny nekkid animated people. huh. Imagine my surprise a few days later when I realized they had anatomically correct ones too! (the boys, I mean) That was like Woah! ok then! lol
I wandered off to other areas and I found a house that was like a big log cabin and always empty so being clueless as I was, I would crash there (I was a squatter! LOL), it was so cute. I didn’t realize people had private residences, heck I dont know what I thought!
I started trying to put my avi together, back then, there were not nearly as many wonderful freebies as there are now, and what there was, wasn’t nearly as well made! (The Free Dove was actually around but it was much smaller than it is now!) I took some photos outside that house…. Want to see noob me? I warn you, it’s not pretty! But I did get myself some decent hair somehow. For back then anyway.
The grid has come a long long way since 2008 my friends. !!!!! This photo was taken right outside the cute house I used to crash in, I loved the little blanket area and the sparkly rainbows. Second Life seems so much more real now, with mesh and things look so much better!
13 Years Later!
So now lets talk about my new photo (stark contrast!!!) cause I’ve got an adorbs outfit for you from Lunar. My shorts, top and jacket are all part of the Chanty outfit which is a free group gift at Lunar (I love their stuff! I am *dying* for their Lamu Jacket in Pink!), and that group is free to join. The ensemble fits:
Freya
Hourglass
Legacy
Maitreya
Each item comes with a HUD so you can pick and choose colors and make the outfit uniquely yours.
My cute golden flower headband is also a free group gift, this time from Evie, and woohoo that group is free to join as well. Gotta love an entirely free cute outfit!
Tomorrow I think I will check out the fab free list of rezz day gifts, I always mean to and somehow always forget its my rezz day until it passes. Not this time! I need some goodies to blog too. As if I need a reason to find freebies!
Happy Weekend!

So after three days of trying, I finally got into FLF-O Ween. Yep, three days. Nearly landed me in the loony bin. Oops! Did I say *nearly*. I meant to say…. *clearly!* As you can see, my head is spinning quite a bit from all those teleports to nowhere via my retry HUD.
Oh yes, and I’ve donned my bunneh mask and grabbed my lucky bunneh voodoo doll for comfort too (any guesses who I am using it on? hee hee), oh and a perfectly *spooky* t shirt, so cute!
As a side note, I noticed lately, that spooky, sometimes becomes spoopy. What is the difference between the two? Spoopy to me sounds like what ghosts make when they use the little ghouls room. Be right back, I gotta take a spoopy! Or a speepy? That will be the word for next year, you just wait!
But I digress!
Back to the matter at hand. I’m showing y’all today the plethora of goodies I managed to spoop (erm I mean scoop!) up once I got into the Flf event.
My spooKy shirt (not to be confused with the little wet spoopy ones!) was so cute and that was a free gift (the gifts are free, but you do need to join and activate the Fifty Linden Fridays group, which is free to join) from Nectarine, and it fits Maitreya. My pants are a free gift from Jeune by Rowne. They fit:
Freya
Isis
Hourglass
Kupra
Maitreya
Legacy
Physique
My shoes are adorbs and they are from Schadenfreude, another freebie at Flf and they fit:
Belleza
Maitreya
Slink
Mask is from Aleutia (free). (lots of designers with tricky names lately!) My cute (and useful! wink wink) voodoo bunneh is by Luas (another freebie).
Lastly my backdrop was a 50L find by Milk Motion. There is much more to it than what I got to show here.
FLF-O-Ween runs til November 1st.

Just out for a nice autumn evening walk around the neighborhood. I love the light at dusk, when things are beginning to quiet down. The sun is tucking itself in for bed, and the stars are starting to peek out. It’s kind of magical really, a constant transition of the sky that we really only notice when day is turning into night and vice versa.
I also found the perfect downtime autumn outfit, this cute Fab Free Group Gift courtesy of our very own Fab Free designer, Blink 2 Wink. When I saw they had customized this for Fab Free, well, how could I resist? And who *doesn’t* want to feel fabulous, and look fabulous and *be* fabulous!
This cute ensemble is free and all you have to do is wear your Fab Free group tag and click the vendor! I tell ya, it doesn’t get any easier than that. Nosirreebob!
It fits:
Freya
Isis

Just a quick post to let you all know about the brand spanking new Fab Swag at the Fab Free Headquarters. There is a vendor set up with crazy low prices and some fun Fab Free crop tops (we will add more swag down the road), all sales benefit Fab Free, plus there are a couple of freebies in the living room on the left hand side.
What’s a Witch to do… When she can’t Remember *where* she parked her Broom!
Hmmm, that’s not mine, and this one isn’t mine… Oh darn, none of these are mine!
Oh!
Hey gang, I didn’t see you standing there (or sitting as the case may be!)
I am back with a bit more fun from the Swank Pumpkin Hunt! This is a hunt going on at the Swank Event and it is so much fun, so many great designers with goodies! The hunt is free, and although you are required to join the Swank group, that is free as well.
This time I have a super cute outfit from Brii Underground! This is a complete outfit, cute hat and everything, that is a hunt giftie at Swank. This is a fit for Maitreya only, but golly it’s cute! (yes, I said golly.) Since it is so cute, this, as you can see, is *not* one of my scary posts. Thought y’all could use a break! Don’t worry, I have more in the wings! You will just have to wait and see!
Has anyone seen my broom around? I need it to fly home!

I welcome you into my sl home on this Sunday morning, where I surround myself with all things pink (not the entire house, just this one room). This is my dressing room/office. You can’t see my desk in the photo, but it is there. It took a lot of time, searching and lindens to pull this beauty together and it was worth every minute of it. As Aline will tell you, if you can’t have it in real life, create it in second life! This is the room where all the magic happens, trying on outfits, deciding what you guys need to see, then styling, and finally coming back and putting it all together into a blog post.
Today however, I’m going a step further and taking my photo in here as well.
I found this gorgeous dress at the Swank Event Pumpkin Hunt. Now I am a blogger for Swank Event (along with my Fab Free duties!), but this time, I happily get to combine the two. This is a free hunt and there is a plethora of pumpkins hidden at booths at the event. You do need to join the Swank Group, but it is free to join.
This dress is courtesy of Zoom, one of my favorite designers, and comes with a HUD with ten color choices. I chose my least favorite color (ha ha).
It fits:
Freya
Hourglass
Isis
Maitreya
Physique
Venus
Swank Event runs until the end of the month as as there are both fashion as well as home and garden designers, your gifts will have a perfect variety of both things! I’m still going through everything I got!
Fame what you like is in the limo Fame what you get is no tomorrow Fame what you need you have to borrow
-Fame by David Bowie
Sometimes a girl just needs to feel a bit high fashion.
When I saw this dress by AtaMe at the Halloween Shop & Hop, I just knew I had to get it and wear it in a photo. The lines have such *movement* that it was begging to be photographed! Oh did I mention that it is one of the absolutely free gifts that you can get at Shop and Hop? No group required! I seriously fell in love with this entire look! It comes with a HUD allowing you to change metals and colors on the dress. It fits:
Maitreya
Kupra
Legacy
For some reason too this dress made the song “Fame” pop into my head. Originally by David Bowie, but I love the more upbeat version done by Duran Duran. My Mom used to *love* David Bowie (yeah she was cool!), so she might argue with me on that point. Gosh I miss her. (by the way, not to be confused with the Irene Cara song Fame that I sang in a show when I was a teenager, that’s a whole ‘nother song!)
But I digress. This photo makes me wish I had a fancy ultra modern house and some fancy couches I could hang this photo up on the wall over. I do have a cute sl house, but it has very little wall space and while it is rather modern-ish, it is also very cabin-ish, so not the right look for my photo. If I hadn’t just got this house recently I might go hunting for one to match the picture because well, as Aline also knows, one can never have enough houses! Nor reasons to get houses. 😉
I better stop thinking before I go looking at houses. But it might be too late to stop that part!
Sometimes, you just *gotta* blog something. The wings on this outfit sold me, I tried them on and said “woah!” out loud. Sold. Must blog. Sometimes too you can see the end photo in your head, sometimes you can get there and sometimes you can’t, but when you are inspired, there is always a vision. I saw my vision and got to create it this time, so I am grateful and blessed.
and I love anything with fingerless gloves. 😛 Just by the way.
So this awesome getup is another of those awesome free goodies at the Halloween Shop & Hop going on now and lasting until the end of the month. This is courtesy of Alter, which is a new to me designer (I’m discovering so many amazing designers lately! It’s such a delight!).
Honestly, you are gonna be unpacking for agessssss once you go to the shop & Hop (as usual!), I even wrote down a few places I want to go back to once I have some more lindens. There are also a few gift cards as gifties.
I’ve got one more Shop & Hop showcase coming up for you, so hold tight. Then it’s back to the spooky!

One of our readers contacted me with a tip. She said she found a place with lots of great deals and it would be perfect on Fab Free and gave me the LM. I thought awesome. We can always use more goodies for you guys and I happily went off to check it out. What an awesome treat this was going to be!
However…. all was not as it seemed! Little did I know that this was a trick.
I came to a cute little cottage and thought it must just be a little shop, but the door was locked, so I knocked, but once I did, this sign appeared! The door opened on it’s own and I was pulled inside a pitch dark room, I couldn’t see anything! I only felt cold, foul smelling breath on my neck and something strong had me in its grasp! A deep, gravely voice spoke, much too close to my ear for comfort. “Why have you come here?” I struggled to catch my breath and speak.
“I… I… I only…”
“Speak!” the voice shouted and I felt spittle hit my face in the dark and that foul breath again. I could feel something sharp against my skin.
I was shaking uncontrollably. I forced myself to speak, though barely a whisper came out. “Tr… tr…. trick, or…. orr…. tr”
“What did you say?” It shook me hard and the voice seemed to get angrier every time it spoke. I felt the blood draining from my limbs as the unknown entity held me ever tighter each time.
I knew there was one thing to do and one thing only, so I tried to take a deep a breath as I could, and said as loudly and forcefully as possible “I said… TRICK OR TREAT!”
I felt the ground under my feet start to crumble and I started to lose my footing, the creature was screaming as if in agony, I lost my balance and fell forward onto the broken ground. It was only then I realized the creature (or whatever it was!) had let go, and I ran for where the door had been, my hands fumbled against the wall in the darkness. I felt something thrashing behind me and the screams continuing, I thought surely someone must be able to hear all this noise! Please, please let someone hear and come help me! I was panicked, but I suddenly felt the knob of the door and pulled it open with all my might!
I ran back into the daylight, as fast as my legs could carry me! There were spiders on my face and I tried to brush them off as I ran, I felt scratches I had gotten from the struggle and something, what was it? Something black was oozing out of my mouth! How did that even get there??? What happened to me?!
In my confusion I wasn’t looking where I was running and I stepped off an embankment and lost my footing, I was falling! Autumn colors blurred past my eyes! There was nothing to catch, I was heading for the ground!
And then I woke up! Whew! I hate weird dreams like that!!!
oh yes and I’m wearing a gift for Shop and Hop from Limited Addiction, no group required and completely free. It fits:
Maitreya

My cute shoes are free from the Shop and Hop as well, made by KC Couture and they fit:
