Okay, so I’m late to the party for the awesome Kaithleen’s 300L gift card. But while I was doing the photo for yesterday’s blog post, the group notice came through and slapped me right in the face. ONLY ONE MORE DAY to go get my 300L card! That’s right, 300L just for the group members. The Group does cost a teeny 5L to join but wow… it’s still a great bargain. I spent most of my gift card on this gorgeous “Luna” top but there are tons of beautiful things to spend that Holiday ‘cash’ on.
The caveat is you only have until January 1 to grab that card. Of course the gift card is usable beyond January first. So get down to Kaithleen’s and help yourself!
Sizes Included for the Luna Top
Belleza – Freya Isis
eBody Curvy
Legacy
Maitreya
SLink – Hourglass
I was so excited to go grab my gift card, I didn’t even change clothes before I popped over. And, being a lazy elf, I didn’t change out of my jeans and new boots! Then I thought… I’m just showing how cute and versatile the Kathy Boots are! See how different they look using the texture change HUD?! Yeah… that’s it…. 🙂

Hey, Fab Free! Today I will being doing a little feature on the Lybra VIP group! It is indeed a paid group with a 500 L fee to join, but membership to the group gives you access to many wonderful things including fatpack gifts, and monthly gift cards. I will also be showing you all some free and almost-free accessories and makeups to accompany the latest group gift at Lybra, so read below for more details!
Lybra VIP 2020 Perks
At Lybra, the 500 L join fee for their VIP group is definitely an investment and well worth the benefits. There are other benefits you get through this group in addition to the past group gifts. One of the recently added perks in Lybra‘s VIP group is that every month members get a 500 L gift card. That equals 6,000 Linden in store credit per year! I joined during the first couple days of March and was able to cash in on the monthly promotion for the first three months of the year. Time for a shopping spree, Fab Free! Just head over to the Lybra VIP members lobby on the main floor of the store, to pickup the group, gifts cards and past member’s gifts.
Andrea
The most recent VIP group gift is Andrea. It’s a really gorgeous outfit, and can work for business or leisure. It include a top and slacks and it comes with several detailed colour huds. I decided to take my photo above in a sim dedicated to the twentieth century sci-fi author H.P. Lovecraft, and I can even see this outfit working for modernist roleplay needs. Overall, this outfit is a keeper and it looks super fancy and expensive! You’ll radiate with class wearing this.
Sizes Included
Maitreya
Belleza (Freya & Isis)
Alice Signature
Slink Hourglass
The Andrea set is so customizable and very easy to mix and match with other accessories, makeups and shoes, so I had no problem adding some wonderful freeand cheap items to this look, so keep reading!
The Classy Eclatant Heels
KC Couture currently has a couple gifts out for free, or almost-free themes groups right now, which are tucked in behind the corner. The pair I have on right now are the gift for MLM offers (5 L join), called the Eclatant Heels. They’re very classy and intricate, and for 5L only these are a great steal.
Free Eyeshadow!
I added a freeeyeshadow to this outfit in a green and brown shade to match my top and pants. This eyeshadow is from Altice. It is made for Genus heads, and can be used on BOM heads as well. It is a free gift with a free group join.
Some Bangles
The Bangles I have on right now perfectly match the colours I selected on the Andrea Fatpack, and they are one of the past group gifts from Death Row Designs that you can pick up as a free group gift until March 18th, which I recently blogged about. These are the “Wood Bangles”, in the colour set and the Mono set. They are gorgeous and can see them going with a lot of outfits. You can pick up the bangles as one of DRD‘s past group gifts which are available for free right now. Make sure to head over there soon as these will be retiring in the next week!

… just to see if it really happened like in the movies. Yup. It does. Stuck! But that’s okay. A friendly passer-by helped me out with a bit of water from their water bottle and all was well in the world again. (That really does unstick you!)
Sales!
Speaking of stuck, since I was stuck inside with all this cold weather I decided to check out some sales. I heard that Vision had a sale on their gift cards (currently 50% off gift cards until the 30th) and was tempted enough to mosey on down to the store. While I was there, I discovered that if I joined their VIP group for 250L, I would be rewarded with 100L of in-store credit each month on the 1st. This is cumulative, plus you get access to the lucky letter boards.
So I got my in-store credit, and saved that up. In just less than a week I’ll be able to get another 100L on January 1st! So now is the perfect time to join the VIP group. And then I hit the lucky letter boards…
Getting lucky…
I got lucky at Vision pretty quick as my letter came up and I snagged the jacket and top you see in the picture. The jacket and top are separate so you could mix and match if you want which is nice.

Send a notecard titled FabFree Pick Rewards to Renee Lowenhart. Do not put your name in the title, but in the notecard include your full name, rez day, and you can tell us how awesome we are… lol but really just including your name and rezz day is fine!
