Silky Dreams

Foulard dress 2_001

I love learning (well anything but math!). While scrounging around in my recent inventory I came across one of the gifts from the Inov Event. It’s name is Foulard. I was thinking a foulard was something like a faux-pas or maybe something a fool might do. Man, I was way off. It turns out that foulard is a lightweight plain-woven or twilled silk usually decorated with a printed pattern. That’s your fashion lesson for today fabbies!

You Would Be a Fool Not to Love It

I would describe Blonde Queen’s free gift at the Inov event as F-I-N-E! It’s a mini dress with such a gorgeous texture that gives it an elegant look. It does look quite silky. I polished off the look with with a free necklace from Evado (that Aline showed you HERE) along with red heels and lipstick. The Foulard dress gift comes in this texture. I mean, why would you want to change it?  Just join the free Inov group, and click on the gift!

Glam is the Word

Fameshed Anniversary GG 2023_002

Now and then I feel like dressing up with a formal flair. Today was a given once I unpacked a few gifts from Fameshed and shopped a couple of Hello Tuesday offerings. This came together so easily and I love this look.

A Little Romance

Putting together a stunning and classy look was easy today. My gown comes from Purple Moon and I am so happy to see this Poulet creating clothing again. The Octavia gown is gorgeous with its’ cut outs on the skirt and beguiling corset. For the Hello Tuesday Sale the gown is offered in this pale gold color. It is sized for Freya, Kupra, Legacy, and Maitreya.

Stylish Adornments

Fameshed Anniversary GG 2023_004

Kunglers always has intricately designed jewelry. Their free gift at the Fameshed Anniversary Round is a set of bracelets for each arm. The Wendy set comes with both a white/silver and a pink/gold version. They are delicate looking and can be used for many occasions. You must join the free Fameshed group to get the gift and have your tag active to access the location.

Kunglers is also participating in the Hello Tuesday Sale. The Sibilla Pearl necklace is on sale for $50L per color (there are five different colors to choose from). It’s such a simple but beautiful necklace you can wear with many outfits.

Now go forth and shop!

It’s a Very Happy Weekend

Happy weekend 60L 4-23-2023_002

Our weather has been so beautiful lately providing sunny days and cool breezes bringing us a chance to breathe in spring. I came down shopping bug earlier today. It all started with a gander at The Happy Weekend sale gallery. I saw way too many things that I need/want. You know what I mean. But in my wanderings I also came across a completely free dress.

Did You Say Free Dress??

I’ve talked about Nilsy in previous posts. Each weekend another gift comes out. You don’t need a group. Once you land in the store walk towards the back behind the staircase and you’ll easily see the  weekend’s free gift. Nilsy is a very generous designer. I’m wearing the Tropic Folk Dress today. I am ready for the tropics as long as air-conditioning is available! The texture, the ruffled sleeves and the flouncy look of the hem all fit together to make it a keeper for sure.

Sizes

  • Altamura
  • Belleza Isis, Freya, Venus
  • Ebody
  • Maitreya
  • SLink Hourglass & Physique
  • TMP

New Choos!

I love new shoes almost as much as I love new hair! The Sphere shoes from Azoury are so cute! The style is a bit abstract but it only makes them more special in my eyes. You can grab a pair yourself for $60L. Shoes come with a version of silver nails and another with gold nails.

Sizes

  •  Maitreya: Lara
  • eBODY: Reborn
  • Kalhene: Erika
  • Legacy: Female
  • Belleza: Gen.x Female

New Hair!

For the Happy Weekend sale Wings set out the ER0115 style. I’ve never really frequented the store so I was quite pleased to see this curly long style. It’s rigged so you don’t even have to comb it out! *giggles*. But seriously your avatar will love it because it won’t raise your avatar rendering complexity by much like older hair used to do.

Well gang, I think I hear my pillow calling, so ttfn!

xoxo,

Nilsy, a.k.a. nils tomorrow, does a great job with textures, especially lace ones.  And this dress, simply called White Lace Dress, shows them well. There are two options for the shoulders and upper neckline – tan and nude.  You don’t need a group, just head over to the store, stroll to the area behind the staircase and grab the dress! Easy, peasy! Do not miss this – it will be gone by tomorrow!

NO SPRING No mtach 4-2-23

I LOVE No_Match hair! I get hair from the store 2 – 3 times a month as either a gift or on sale. Today I received a group notice about an offer for the Happy Weekend sale. No_Spring is a really cute long hairstyle with little braids hanging to each side of the center part. It just looks and feels like Spring! Yes, all our Northern friends, Spring will arrive for you one day also, No_Spring comes in sizes for petite, busty, and regular and it’s on sale today for only $60L. This hair makes me happy. XD

So put on your best running shoes and get out there!

Purr Like a Big Cat

FabFree gift Belle EpoqueMarch 2023_001

Some days can be grey, misty or worse stormy. The view from my beach house shows all of those. What’s a woman to do? I know! I’ll grab a catnap. Maybe I’ll sprinkle some catnip over these sofa pillows and roll around in it. You know how it is when you have a cat that is crazy for catnip you learn how to do these things. I can do just about any of that in SL and it sounds really good to me.

Belle Epoque is at it Again

Just yesterday Belle Epoque set out a new FabFree Group Gift. The Candy outfit with its’ scrumptious leopard texture is right up my alley. It’s screaming for the warmer days to arrive. You’ll look cool and fab in this cropped top and pants. The top and pants I’m wearing are the Candy outfit and it’s yours for free! Just activate your FabFree group tag before tapping the vendor.

Sizes

  • Maitreya
  • Legacy
  • Perky
  • Petite

I’ve got to run because the cat has decided it’s time for a nap on my keyboard. Have a super weekend!

I Got Your Glam Right Here

Sense Event March 2023 GG_001

It’s just another ho-hum Friday night in RL. Thus, I decided to go glam in SL. Getting all dressed up in beautiful clothing while wearing nice jewels is a mood lifting event. You know what I mean. Maybe you’ll feel like Cinderella or a First Lady of the USA. And hey, It’s a lot less effort and way less expensive in SL.

Get Glam!

The Sense Event is currently running until March 28th. Join the free group when you land. Just click on the group gift sign and this fabulous gown is yours. The Dinasty Star Gown Dress by Sofia comes in this sparkly gold color. If you look closely you can see a delicate texture on the skirt. It’s a one-piece affair so you don’t have to wear numerous pieces. I adore the ruffled collar and plunging neckline. No worries, you won’t be flashing anyone. You’ll find a pair of earrings & a brooch in the package.

Sized for:

  • Erika
  • Hourglass
  • Kupra
  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Reborn

Have a wonderful weekend getting glam!

xoxoxo,

Cre

Hotter Than Hades

Kaithleen LB prize_002_001

Many of you are buried under massive amounts of snow but here in the South it’s hot. Wearing a coat or jacket is out of the question as we Southern ladies don’t want to perspire or even worse, sweat! Layers are fine for the night since you may feel a tiny bit of a chill. The heat is on here! Time to spruce up the yard, clean the pool, and boil a huge pot of crawfish and all the fixings. Yum!

More Gifts For Groups

Don’t know about you but I love getting gifts. Being in the FabFree group affords you the opportunity to try products from a variety of designers. Of course it is free to join. If you follow this blog you already know that we are bursting at the seams with FabFree group gifts. The awesome pair of heels I’m wearing are one of the gifts you can find by traipsing over to Yokana (aka YK). Activate your Fabfree tag, click on the vendor and the free fatpack is yours. Included is a hud with 30 texture change options.

Sizes

  • GenX
  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Reborn

I recently mentioned that I’d joined the store group at Badgyals. Today I’m wearing the Gold Hoop earrings group gift. Simply join the free Badgyals group and pick up the gifts there. The earrings come in gold and silver. I love the size of these. They say retro to me but are also currently in style. As it’s said, “Everything old is new again.” Sighs, wish it worked for my tired old real life body.

Have a super day gang!

Decor Fever

Hey FabFree! I have some pretty free decor gifts to share tonight, as well as a modern concrete house for only 75L. I’ll tell you all the details on how to get these great items!

Breakfast, Moodboards & Blankies

First, I found a whole bunch of gifts at Nutmeg. You just need to join the freeReka Updates” group to get them all. Click the “join group” sign and it will send the correct group joiner invite. All of the group gifts are near the group joiner. I am showing the following group gifts in my post tonight:

  • The “Breakfast in Bed” gift is a delicious board of coffee, eggs, cream, sugar cubes, roses & pears. This is one of Nutmeg‘s newer gifts. It’s so exquisitely detailed and romantic.
  • The “Framed Paintings” gift includes two pretty framed paintings of flowers. This is a new gift as well, and perfect for stacking against walls.
  • I also included one older gift in my scene. Nutmeg has a pack of all past group gifts from 2020-2022 available as well. In that big box of free past group gifts, I found a really cute gift called “Moodboard”. The moodboard is a large clipboard with pictures and cute sayings on it. It’s super adorable. Two versions of the board are included in this gift, and you can find many more free gifts inside that large pack of past gifts!

A Concrete House…

The background of my scene is a “Modern Concrete House”, which is currently on sale for only 75 lindens.

Decor Fever

You can see views of the outside and inside of the house below. It’s a concrete home with some nice spaces for decorating. It is available at Noveny for a limited time for 75L. You will find it near the Ebento Weekend sale signs. This was the sale item from last weekend, so it will be taken down very soon before next weekend. Go NOW to get the good deal!

Decor Fever

Enjoy, FabFree!

With a Little Luck

LSB Kissa LB prize 3_001

There are those days when you feel incredibly lucky. It’s that feeling you get when you log in and get a nice prize from the Mania Board you slapped. I had one of those days last week. I made my rounds to slap MM boards. It’s fun to get a package from them. What could be better than absolutely free things? Maybe more free things???

Just the Facts

I wandered over to LSR last week and once there I joined the store group at a cost of $99L. I joined because there are lots of benefits for group members. When you explore LSR look for the back wall with five group gifts, 30 lucky letters, and close by are four Mini Mania boards.. Near the Mania boards are four dollarbie items. And you’ll find a few gifts for non-store groups.

I won this darling outfit, Kissa, from one of the mania boards. Though the top and skirt are tiny they do cover all of your bits. It’s a great outfit for those hot, sweltering days of summer. The color is nude.

Sizes

  • Belleza Freya & Isis
  • Legacy
  • Maitreya/Petite

(P.S.) I camped out by the lucky boards while finishing up this post and my letter came up 8 times!

Meva’s free Shop & Hop gift, the Valentines necklace is perfect for accessorizing this cute number. Because a HUD with a generous number of textures is included I was able to match the studs on the waistband of the skirt. Score!

See ya next time!

Peace,
Cre
