By the Beautiful Briny Sea

Come with me Fab Free, to the sea! Okay maybe not to the sea, but definitely to SaNaRae! The current round of SaNaRae has tons of cute stuff, and I scored this cute maxi dress and the sunglasses by playing a few gachas. In addition, this hairstyle is a FREE subscribo gift at Pink Hustler. I’m kind of in love with it. To top things up, I found some fun nails on the Marketplace to add a little extra attitude to this perfect summer outfit.While shopping for hair, I literally happened across this freaking adorable subscriber gift at Pink Hustler. I love that the style of this FREE hair is a little bit pinup and a little bit punk rock. All you need to do to get this FREE hairstyle is join the subscriber at Pink Hustler. This awesome freebie includes more than one size, and a color change hud that allows you to change either side of the hair independently, or you could make both sides the same color. There are lots of options to choose from.

I love the fun bright colors in these funky sunglasses from Minimal. The glasses are a gacha common from Minimal at the SaNaRae event. These cool shades are just 75 lindens per play, and there are tons of variations. Also at SaNaRae is this ultra comfortable and just as cute maxi dress from Mignon. Also a gacha common, this dress is just 50 lindens per play. Make sure to try the demos before you decide which gacha to play! I genuinely love this casual look, and scouts honor, I got these two gachas on my first try.

Lastly, I couldn’t resist adding some fun nails to this already awesome look. While poking through the Marketplace I came across these brightly colored stiletto style manicured nails from SHOCK. These are just 1 linden! Included in the package are nails to fit Maitreya, Slink (Gesture, Splayed, Elegant1, Casual), TMP, and Classic non mesh hands, and a color change/re-size hud with 5 color options. Read the note card included about fitting, it saved me what would have otherwise been a headache!

That Touch of Pink

Hi Fab Free’rs I hope you had a great weekend and a good start to the week so far. Also to those who’ve celebrated Mother’s Day or are celebrating today, Happy Mother’s Day!! Today I am excited to share this cute almost bubble goth style look with you. You can get this entire outfit including the dress, shoes, ring, and the mani/pedi for just 75 linden. Like always I tell you specifically how, and where in the details below. I hope you enjoy this look. Pink may not always be my go-to color but I definitely love it as an accent color. I personally really love the way this outfit turned out.

Usually I’d start from the top and end with the shoes. Tonight I’m going to start by telling you about these fantastic FREE shoes from Empire. Recently Empire put up 6 lucky boards at their main store. Each board has a specific pair of shoes in a single lucky board only color. That’s right, not only are these shoes FREE, they are in an exclusive color for that shoe style. There is a group tag needed to play these lucky boards, however, it’s a FREE-to-join Empire Updates group. This group is separate from the Empire VIP group that allows you to claim group gifts. The group joiner for the FREE Empire Updates group is located just under the lucky boards. Definitely make sure you’re joining the right group. The shoes Pru is wearing for this look are just 1 of the 6 pairs. Additionally, each pair of shoes comes in several sizes/fits for specific mesh feet. If you ask me they are definitely worth stalking the lucky boards for!

Next,  I picked up this beautiful ring and the simple yet classic manicure/pedicure at SWANK for FREE. The ring is a beautiful statement abalone ring. I have always loved abalone in jewelry. The shell has beautiful swirls of green and blue with hints of pink and violet. I think it’s not only a beautiful piece, but versatile as well. You could wear it with anything and it would look amazing! This particular FREE gift at SWANK is from Vintage Touch. Also at SWANK is this undeniably classic white french tip manicure/pedicure set from Tashi. This gift is FREE as well, and includes appliers for Maitreya, Slink, Belleza, and Omega nails in several “nude” tones. Everyone  should have a simple white french-tip manicure in their inventory.

Now for the dress! This sweet little black dress from Apple May Designs has  a lot of simple charm. The sweetheart cut to the top and the extra wide flare to the skirt gives the dress a doll-like look. One of the best features of the dress is the thin belt. Included with this dress from Apple May Designs is a color-change hud that allows you to choose between several pastel colors for the belt. You can purchase this dress on the Marketplace from Apple May Designs for just 75 lindens as their Buy Now offer.

It’s Gonna be a ShuShu Summer

Hi There Fab Free’rs! Thanks for stopping by. I hope you’ve all been having a fantastic week. My week just got a lot better, I found some gorgeous new swimwear at  ShuShu that’s completely FREE. Now I have an excuse to spend the weekend at the beach! As if I really needed an excuse.

The first, one pictured above, is a one piece swimsuit but the design makes it appear a lot like a bikini. It is my personal favorite of the two because of the black and white design and cute ties at the hips. This swimsuit from  ShuShu is completely FREE, just click to “pay” the vendor 0 lindens. This gift doesn’t need a group either, so anyone can pick it up. It comes in several mesh sizes, and includes an alpha layer for non-mesh avatars.

The second FREE swimsuit at  ShuShu is this pretty bright magenta colored bikini with a sort of disco style draped top.  Like the other swimsuit this one is also fully mesh and comes with alpha layers. I was honestly pleasantly surprised at how well the bikini fit. I will mention however that both swimsuits are very low cut on the bottom, so just be aware of that. I think both swimsuits are serious head-turners! There’s also an equally cute group only bikini gift at  ShuShu that I’m not showing, you’ll find it in the same area as these freebies.

To get one or both (and considering they are free, why not both?!) swimsuits, head over to  ShuShu and look for the room full of swimwear, just in case the direct teleport doesn’t work out.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Be Incredible

Hello Fab Free! I’ve had a busy few days but I’m back and I’m excited to share some great group gifts I stumbled across today. I love it when you can pick up gifts at events, and Cosmopolitan Sales Room always has gifts each round. This round, the gifts were just my taste which doesn’t always happen! In addition to the gifts at Cosmo Sales Room, Entice has recently put out a new group gift and as always it’s beautiful.

This pretty inspirational wall art from Ama is one of the group gifts at Cosmo Sales Room. I love decorating in Second Life, especially when I can pick up well-made beautiful pieces like this one for FREE. The canvas reads “Work Hard, Do Good, Be Incredible” which is sweet and direct, which makes me like it even more. I’ll be leaving this one up at my house for sure. Everyone can benefit from a little inspiration, I know I can!

Also at Cosmo Sales Room as a FREE group gift is this fun quirky necklace from Tantalum. The Ouija board necklace comes in both a female and a male version and can be re-sized by clicking the necklace. Once again, this gift is exactly my taste, a little playful and maybe a little sinister. If you like it too, better hurry, there are just a few days left of this round of Cosmo Sales Room. To get these gifts simply join the FREE Cosmopolitan Sales Room group and click the gift vendors while wearing your tag.

Finally, this saucy low-cut dress is the current group gift at Entice. I like that this dress is simple yet elegant in style, and could be easily dressed up or down, and I think it would even look cute with leggings or pants. Also this FREE group gift comes with a texture change hud. I really like this “Love” pattern, with Valentines Day just around the corner Love is certainly the theme of the moment. I included a copy of the vendor photo for this great dress from Entice below so you can see the additional textures included. To get this dress join the FREE Entice group and pay the vendor 1 linden while wearing your tag. You will then be instantly repaid the 1 linden.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Vogue

Hello Everyone, I hope everyone is having a good week so far! While on the lookout for some fabulous finds, I came across some adorable platform heels from Apple May Designs. Let me just say these shoes are proof that social media is worth while. Had I not joined Facebook, I might have never known about them! Haha Anyway, back to the shoes, these too cute shoes are just $25 lindens just until August 30th, so there isn’t much time left! The shoes are made to wear with Slink High feet, and they come with a color change hud so you can customize the chain, heel, and bow accents. As you can see from the above pictures, I chose to wear them in red, even though the hud included a black option which would have matched just as well, but I wanted them to tie in these gorgeous red lips from Pink Acid. Currently Pink Acid has a gacha machine full of adorable goodies at The Gacha Mania event! At just $50 lindens per play, I knew they had to be mine! Now my outfit is another bargain I just had to share with you, even though it’s a bit more pricey than what I might normally show.

I stumbled across an event (while looking through flickr photos!) called “Nice to Be” where designers offer discounted goods. At Nice to Be is where I picked up this sexy fun outfit. The outfit is by StormCrow Designs and it includes 2 mesh tops, both shown above, matching earrings, a pair of shoes, and the pants all for $100 lindens! I thought it was so cute that I just had to share it with you. Also, I was so excited about my last manicure from Nail Me!, that I had to have another one. This manicure is called Pixie Dust and has a cute silhouetted pixie with a glittering background in several bright shades. For a very limited time, you can pick the manicure/pedicure appliers up for just $50 lindens at the Nail Me! main location.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Vintage Vinyl

Some days all I want to do is sit at home in my favorite band shirt and listen to records with my cat. Finn, that’s my cat, even seems to enjoy when I occasionally sing along! Inevitably when the topic of music comes up, people ask “Who’s your favorite artist?” or “What band do you like best?”. Those questions are impossible for me to answer. I don’t have a favorite, I like them all, some more than others obviously, but even that changes with my mood. Certain genres have a special place in my heart because they are the proverbial soundtrack to my angst-riddled teen years. Mostly, music just speaks to me on so many levels. I can’t imagine life without it.

So, when I came across this sweet little t-shirt showing Yoko and John Lennon on the Marketplace, I had to have it! It isn’t mesh, and it doesn’t come with any appliers, but it’s a cute shirt and perfect for a casual outfit. While browsing through the Marketplace, I also came across this sightly off-the-shoulder cardigan. It’s got a kinda grungy feel to it, and hey, the ’90s are my decade, those were my teen years, so heck yes!! I know, grunge is not always the best fashion forward statement, but every now and then I just have to indulge in a little fashion nostalgia. Band shirt, check, funky sweater, check, now my look could not be complete without some printed tights to go under my denim shorts! Once again, the Marketplace held the answer. These super cute tights are by [BE]lieve, and just inexpensive enough that I couldn’t have been happier with them. I’ll admit, I struggled with not wearing combat boots, or even more grunge, yellow work-boots. Anyone else recall when those were popular, even for girls?! hahaha Still, I refrained from the boots and went with these funky cool wedge shoes with little wing accents. Last but not least, I am completely in love with one of the latest manicure/pedicure sets from Nail Me! For a limited time these uber cute and pretty nail appliers called “Faery Wings” are on sale for $50 lindens. They are fun and colorful, and if you’re like me, you’ll wear them with everything! I’m not altogether certain my outfit matches, but what I do know is that I love it! It reminds me of a fun time in my own life. I would have worn this as a teenager, and if I thought for a minute I could pull it off, I might wear it still! I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

*Also, just a little tip, HollyHood is having a 50% of sale that ends August 3oth! So if there is a pair of shoes you’ve been wanting, now is the time to get them! Or, if you’re just a shoe addict like I am, it’s a good time to feed the addiction! 😀

Love Spells with Mona

Watch out for Miss Mona, she just might cast a spell on you, a love spell that is! I know, because it worked on me already. I am in love with this adorably sexy lingerie from Blacklace. The set is named “Mona” and it is currently at a special price for a limited time. You’ll find the vendor in the landing point courtyard. The set is highly detailed, I love the delicate little floral pattern. The shorties are fully mesh and come in standard sizes.

Stay Gold

Hello all you Fab Free lovies! Today I just had to show this too adorable dress. I have really grown to love the color yellow. I didn’t always, but I think that is partly because I don’t wear it well in RL. One more thing to love about Second Life, I can wear any color well. 😀 This pretty little dress from Statement is fully Mesh and comes in standard sizes. I think the skinny belt detail is what makes this dress really stand out. The dress is also available in several colors and stripes. Currently, the store is having a 20% off sale! I have no idea how long the sale will last, so don’t miss out! To go with my sweet new dress, I picked up a few items by {ZOZ}. Currently they are participating in a few events, so you can get some awesome products at a really great price. My manicure and pedicure are the {ZOZ} contribution to the current round of Designer Showcase. Additionally I went to the Cosmopolitan Sales Room and picked up these pretty floral print heels, also by {ZOZ}. Now I’m ready to meet up with the girls for a little coffee and gossip!

Sleeping Beauty

So I’ve been on a bit of a lingerie kick lately, and I am perfectly happy with that! There is a saying that goes something along the lines of  ” if you take the time to dress pretty, you’ll feel pretty. ” and I do believe that. I also think it applies to your under-garments. If you take the time to wear something pretty under your clothes, you’ll feel pretty.

One of the current gifts at this round of the Cosmopolitan Sales Room is this very pretty purple lace bra and pantie set. The delicate lace pattern is semi-sheer and can be worn with or without Slink Physique, Cute Azz, Phat Azz, and Lolas Tango appliers. Pru is wearing it with the Slink Physique. In addition to my adventures in lingerie, I wandered through the current installation of Kustom 9 and my love for skins and gachas was slaked! Essences has a gacha machine at Kustom 9 with several pretty skins in various tones. I got lucky and snagged this pretty pale skin with smoky purple eye-shadow. Last but not least, I also picked up a set of pretty eyes from {SONG}. I wanted to buy up every single pair, but I limited myself to one. It was quite difficult. 😛 In the end I was pleased as punch with my ensemble, I hope you like it also.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Just a Delicate Peach

Okay, I admit it, I do get some secret delight out of pairing these fierce, sexy gladiator shoes with a sweetly simple dress! I’m not sure what you would call this style, but I really like it. 🙂 The moment I saw these shoes from Whatever, I knew they had to be mine. These pastel-peachy colored knee-high gladiator style heels are fully mesh and have awesome detail. Whatever VIP Group members can pick them up for free at the main store along with several other gifts. The sweet-looking dress I picked out to go with the gladiator shoes is a July gift from SkullCandy on the Marketplace. The pretty pastel peach of the dress is the perfect match for the shoes. Also, for what I am certain is a limited time, WoW Skins has this gorgeous skin “Lisa” in tan for just $10 lindens! I really hope you like my little demon lolita look! 😀 Oh! One more quick note, my manicure and pedicure are from Nail Me!.  They are the 100 group members gift which was sent out in a group notice again recently. This 100 Butterflies gift will be retired soon, so if you don’t have it yet, get it!
