The Doorway into Autumn

Hey gang,

I’m here with Tara (aka Miss Tee, aka Chia pet, aka Chi, etc etc) to share with you some gorgeous Autumn decor for your home.  This week would have been Tara’s birthday if her real life self were still here and although I have been unable to find a shih tzu companion in world that looks like her (she was a black and white shih tzu, and I kept her hair cute and short, as she was a bit of a tomboy!), I try to get as close as I can and this little one from Rezz Room is very cute.  😉  (My Golden Animesh Sumner is also based on a real life furbaby of mine I had many moons ago).

But I digress, I am here to speak of the glories of autumn decor, it’s just that she is on my mind this week, September is a difficult month for me, I lost Sumner on the 29th of August, my dad on the 18th and my Mom on the 29th.(not the same year of course)  So with them all lumped together and my little Tee’s birthday in the mix, it’s in the forefront of my mind lately.

Let’s talk about Autumn!  Shanti always has some goodies for free for everyone and this time of year is no exception.  Not only is there a free box of autumn themed goodies (including the rug here and several other items!) but there is also the fireplace behind me for 55L, along with the cute sunflower tapestry, which I love for only 45L but brand new this year is the Ready for Autumn Golden who is only 1L!  I’ve taken a closer-up photo below to show you the little lights so cozy on the fireplace and on our autumn wreath wearing handsome pup as well!  It’s all got a soft lovely glow that will bring a cozy atmosphere to those chilly autumn nights coming up!
No group required for any of these goodies.

Don’t forget all clothing at Shanti is 75L and under, clothing for mesh bodies is on the right and for classic and BOM, on the left.  Though some of the mesh bodies contain classic clothing, just check the vendors for that.  😉

Also, my cute boots are a free group gift from Promagic, they have a load of group gifts and their group is free to join (ok its a whole ROOM of group gifts).

I’m still hoping summer will come back because this girl is not a fan of the cold.  The only *good* thing is that I get to whip out my collection of fingerless gloves that I love to wear.  😉  Of course with covid, I’ve been reduced to wearing them at home, but that’s ok, my hands are cold all winter.  😉 (as if I need an excuse to wear them!)

Each of the gifts at The Jail are free, you just need to wear the event group tag. The group is free to join, and I’ll put a link below that you can copy and paste into in-world local chat to join the group.

Giuliadesign

The vest style top I am wearing is part of the free Jail event gift by Giuliadesign. I like this piece a lot because I think it looks sexy, but makes me feel like I am being sexy on my terms, for myself. That is an empowering feeling. This top comes in a dark purple color with a white collar as shown. There’s also a matching mini skirt and shoes in the gift, which I chose not to wear.

• Shirt Sizes Included: Slink (Physique, Hourglass), Maitreya Lara
• Skirt Sizes Included: Slink (Physique, Hourglass), Maitreya Lara
• Shoe Sizes Included: Slink, Maitreya

Hanz

The tattoo I am wearing is by Hanz. It’s also free at The Jail, just don’t forget that group tag. I’m happy to say that this tattoo is unisex. It comes tattoo comes in appliers and BOM layers so anyone should be able to wear it, classic or mesh.

Appliers/Layers Included: BOM Layers (Faded, Fresh), Belleza Applier, Slink Applier, Signature Applier, Omega Applier, Maitreya Applier

Madame Noir

Lastly, the choker I have on is a free Jail event gift by Madame Noir. It’s called the Elektra necklace and it has a cool metal clasp in the front. It also has resize scripts, and a color change hud. The hud has several solid color choices for the leather/fabric and different metallic options for the metal bits.

Look for Magic

Hey FabFree!  It’s me again, your favourite blogging witch.  Though, to be fair, I’m not always a witch.  Only when the moment is *just right*.  Tonight is one of those nights, where the wind blows leaves about, the moon is clear and you can hear owls hooting.  I love nights like this, because they make you think that magic is real.  And so it is – magic of the ordinary variety, like your coffee tasting just right, or finding a book that speaks right to you…or a crisp night where the moon calls to your soul.  Never stop believing in magic, it just may not look how you expected it to!

Magical Life

Magic is also apparent to me when I head to an event and find so many fun gifts that all beg to be shown.  Today I headed over to The Gacha Life, joined their free group, and picked up all the gifts!  I found two that really called out to me and said “please blog me!” and so, here are the details:

• FREE Dress by GiuliaDesign sized for Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Maitreya, Physique & Venus with a pair of boots in the bag as well
• FREE Shoes by ZFG sized for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink & Tonic

Go visit!  You won’t be disappointed!

An Unexpected Journey

Hello, Fabulous Readers!  Today, Ripley and I returned to one of our favorite sims – Deciduous.  We traveled down a path we had never explored before, and stumbled across a lovely cove complete with a gentle surf calmly lapping the shore.  An old wooden rowboat sat abandoned on the beach.  Ever curious, the pupster trotted off to investigate.  He hopped aboard, and began sniffing the cushions piled in the stern section of the boat.  Glancing back at me, he gave me that “I’ve found something interesting!” look, so I joined him.  That’s when our curious adventure began.  Unexpectedly, the ancient craft unfurled wings and soared into the sky.   While I stumbled and attempted to keep my balance, Rip happily faced the bow, his nostrils twitching in the wind, and his tail wagging gently with anticipation. “Oh, Rip, what have you gotten us into this time?” I wondered.

At Least I Looked Lovely…

Whatever magical kingdom we were about to visit, I was comforted by the thought that I was dressed for a fairy tale adventure in my free Princess Pink gown from GIULIADESIGN.  This gorgeous flowing frock features a plunging neckline, delicate shoulder straps, and a whimsical criss-crossed tie that accentuates the waistline.  Pale roses adorn the fabric which shimmers in the sunlight.  The gift for members of the SL Frees & Offers group also includes a coordinating clutch, which I must have dropped in my moment of panic when our vehicle sprouted wings.  You can add this “fit for a princess” gown to your inventory completely for free.  Simply activate your SLF&O group tag (the group is also free to join), teleport over to the shop, and give the vendor a quick tap.  It will be almost as if you have a built in fairy godmother to equip you for the ball.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Mesh in XS, S, M, L
• Alpha layer for Classic avatars with a “feet” and “no feet” verison
• Fitted Mesh
• Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
• Maitreya
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• TMP

Here’s a close up of my stunning new dress taken after we safely returned from our visit to the magical kingdom.  As you can probably tell from the picture, I was quite happy to be standing once again on the shore at Deciduous!

Although I sent Ripley on a search and rescue mission to recover my lost bag, he was unable to locate it.  If you travel to the sim, and happen to discover a pink evening clutch, would you please send it my way?  Until my next post, Ripley and I will be keeping ourselves firmly on solid ground (right boy?).  Happy shopping!

Cosmopolitan Sales Room 1st Anniversary Hunt

I logged into a notecard this morning from a reader, telling me about this great hunt going on at the moment! Its being held to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of the Cosmopolitan Sales Room and it ends on the 27th October so you still have a few days to visit and hunt for some amazing prizes!

When you land there is a notice board that shows you an image of the chocolate cake with candles that you are hunting for and if you click the board you will get the URL for the hints page! Some of the cakes are tricky as they are tiny! Also be sure to hunt outside and check ALL buildings *winks*

Please note that the designers that do not have SLURLS listed below, do not have stores in this sim but are particpants in the Sales Room, so do be sure to take a look in there also for more bargains!
