Hello Fabulouses! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Ripley and I wrapped our Sunday up by taking a stroll on the Anneliese sim. It was a relaxing way to close out the break from the work week.
Lady in Red
My adorable red dress with a slightly flared hemline is a free gift for members of Fabulously Free in SL from Snowpaws. With a vibrant red hue and a coordinating red silk choker, the Soma Ruffle Dress had me feeling bright and cheerful. From its plunging neckline, to its carefree asymmetrical skirt, this silk frock is perfect for a date night, or just feeling extra special. It comes in five sizes – XXS, XS, S, M, and L, and the box contains an alpha layer for classic avatars. The small size was just right for my Maitreya Lara mesh body. Best of all, you can pick up this crimson beauty completely for free! Simply activate your Fab Free Group tag and teleport over to Snowpaws. With one quick click, you can add Soma to your inventory.
Budget Friendly Bento Tresses
I discovered my sleek, center-parted Ellie hair style on the Marketplace for only 1 Linden dollar at the Vallani shop. It comes complete with a tint and style HUD, which contains 9 style options and 30 color variations, which offers a great deal of flexibility. The hair has fitted and Bento animated versions. The Bento style is in the experimental stage, but it comes with a quick lock option, so you can stop the movement of your tresses quite easily. I ended up using this handy HUD to keep my hair still. I really like the slight wave at the ends of the style. For just one little Linden Dollar, you can add a lovely, versatile new ‘do to your collection.
Tomorrow, it’s back to the grindstone for me, and back to guarding the house for the pupster. Oh, how I long for our carefree summer days to return! Until my next post, happy shopping!
Hello there, Fabulouses! Ripley and I are popping in with a quick post to showcase a Vintage Gacha Fair gift today. When we arrived, we were quite pleasantly surprised to discover that a number of talented designers are featuring free gifts at their booths at the fair. My top today is courtesy of Belle Epoque. Featuring a vintage pink gingham fabric, trimmed with lace edging, this tank-style cropped top is a summer time classic. I chose to pair it with denim shorts, but the generous designer is also offering coordinating pink shorts as a gift for shoppers at the fair. The delicate shade of pink is soft and feminine, ideal for this vintage shirt. It comes in one mesh version, which fit my Maitreya Lara body perfectly. The Vintage Gacha Fair runs until August 13th, so you have plenty of time to mosey on over to the Path of Destiny sim to scoop up some free goodies for yourself. Most of the stalls have white boxes set out, which contain a free present for you. It’s well worth the visit!
Happy Sunday, Fabulous Readers! After a long first week back to work in RL, it sure was nice to have a quiet moment with the pupster on the front porch. When a butterfly alighted on my outstretched hand, that moment became pure magic, but I should have expected that since I was standing in Luane’s World – a romantic, magical sim.
The Dress
My frock today is the latest free gift from Mooh! for members of Fabulously Free in SL. The Strapless Spring Dress features a soft lavender bodice, and a white skirt adorned with an elegant purple and lavender butterfly. It was perfect for a late summer morning exploring with Ripley. I love the delicate double strap detail at the neckline, which is echoed on the deeply plunging back. With mesh and fitmesh sizes for classic avatars, as well as popular mesh body types, this outfit will fit almost any avatar. Best of all, the Fab Free group is completely free to join, so you can scoop up this little number for a song!
Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:
Mesh in XS, S, M, L, XL (includes alpha layer for classic avatars)
Fitmesh in XS, S, M, L, XL
Belleza
Maitreya
Slink
The Necklace
My Mesh Whimsical Butterfly Necklace from ~{Sasha Lee}~ is part of a set that I picked up on the Marketplace for only 49L. It features a long, silver chain, and a silver butterfly with a diamond studded body, and opalescent jewels embedded in its wings. Matching earrings complete the set, but I chose not to wear them for my photo. It seemed like it was almost made to go with my lovely new dress!
Happy weekend, fabulous readers — I hope you all are having a wonderful, relaxing summer! I’m still around and so happy to be back on the blog! I spent most of July sick in bed with a nasty respiratory infection, but I’m much better now (I hope) and glad to be back on my feet. With Carson sick too, this sure hasn’t been a good summer for the health of Fab Free bloggers!
I’ve got a couple of things to show you today, starting with this sexy dress from I. M. Collection. Annette comes in Fitmesh sizes S-L, as well as for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink mesh bodies. This one is a group gift, but if blue is not your color, there are some lovely versions in pink and gray for just 100L.
Izzie’s put out these gorgeous eye appliers for the July VIP group gift. They come in 9 different colors and include mesh eyes with a HUD, as well as appliers for Catwa, Lelutka, and Omega eyes.
I should point out that my nails are also a group gift from Hello Dave. 6 colors are included, with appliers for Slink, Maitreya, and Omega hands.
One more thing: Fri.day is having a Summer Flash Sale this weekend until August 6th at 11 p.m. SLT, and lots of sandals will be on sale for just 50L! Not the ones I’m wearing here, unfortunately, but if you like them, you can pick them up at the current round of Uber. 🙂
Hello Fabulouses! Ethereal, enchanted, exotic…….all describe my appearance today – thanks to the latest Fab Free group gift from Rowena’s Designs. If you are in the mood for something mythical and out of the ordinary, Ripley and I have a Fabulous Find that is right up your alley. Best of all, since the Fab Free Group’s join fee is 0L, this outfit can be yours completely for free.
A Little Magic Can Take You a Long Way
Rowena Designs’ free, magical Fairy Dress comes complete with gossamer, translucent wings and a color change HUD. I opted for lavender, so I could coordinate with the delicate butterfly which alighted on my hand, but I could have just as easily selected red, green, pink or blue. One thing I love about the HUD is it allows you to color the top, skirt, and wings separately, so you can mix and match textures for a myriad of combinations. With sizes for classic avatars as well as mesh bodies, this gift is sure to fit almost everyone. It’s perfect for role play, or just a fun, fantasy look to change things up.
Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:
Fitmesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L
Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L (I did not see an alpha layer in the package)

Here’s hoping your weekend is filled with magical fun. Until my next post, happy shopping!
Hello Fabulouses, and Happy Friday! I have a cute, casual outfit to share with you today. One of the items is a Fifty Linden Friday offer, so if you want to pick it up for yourself, I’d suggest heading to the shop as soon as possible.
Feeling so Knotical
As soon as I saw the jaunty navy and white striped crop top from Valentina E., I knew it was destined for my inventory. It has an adorable little twist in the bodice section that I had not seen before in a top. Since it is a Fifty Linden Friday special offer, I only spent 50L for this cute little number. It’s designed exclusively for the Maitreya mesh body, so it fit my avatar perfectly! Since Ripley and I had plans to visit the beach at Maison de L’amitie, the nautical stripes echoed the sea-side theme of our day.
The Weekend’s In Sight
After a crazy busy week in RL for me, I’m really looking forward to a couple of days off. My “Weekend” mini shorts from Kitchen Sink are aptly named! Featuring a frayed denim edge, beautifully detailed stitching, and a curve hugging fit, these shorts complemented the dark navy stripes in my top. The best part of all was these shorts are available at the KS shop on the Marketplace for only 10L – happy dance time! The package includes Maitreya and Omega appliers, plus a clothing layer option for classic avatars.
I hope you all enjoy some relaxing moments during the upcoming weekend. I know not much will make me budge from this cozy hanging lounge chair – except for getting up to feed my favorite canine companion, that is. Calm down Ripley, I won’t forget to serve your dinner. 🙂 Until my next post, happy shopping!
Happy Saturday, Fabulouses! Ripley and I hit the hunt trail again today….this time we followed the Star Spangled Hunt 2 path. At Inara’s Fashion, the pupster sniffed out the firework hunt icon which contained this adorable striped tank and denim overall shorts outfit for only 1 little Linden dollar. The white tank features dark blue stitching and wavy stripes which coordinate perfectly with the hue of the shorts. I particularly like the way the overalls are adorned with dark gold metallic stars and shield-shaped patches on the pockets. It’s a fun, casual look that was perfect for a stroll across the lovely landscape at the Svalbard sim. The Star Spangled Hunt 2, which features stars/stripes and bright patriotic colors, runs until July 18th, so you have plenty of time left to discover some budget-friendly hunt prizes for yourself.
Sizes:
Mesh outfit (top and shorts together) in S, M, L, XL
Alpha layer
I hope you are finding time to relax and enjoy your weekend. Until my next post, happy shopping hunting!
Hello there, Fabulouses! Ripley and I escaped to NorderNey today for a morning walk along the shore, and Mr. Gully, here, thought I brought my iced coffee for him. Silly bird! Even the pupster knows better than to get between this girl and her java first thing in the morning. Although it might not look like it in the photo, I was ready to make some Kat-The-Desert-Girl-Ninja moves to rescue my cup, if need be.
Sweet Skirt For a Mini Price
Since it’s currently a promo gift at the Fax Marketplace shop, the cute mini skirt I am wearing in my snapshot cost just one Linden dollar. It features a curve-hugging waistline tied with pink laces, and a flared hem that offers a comfortable fit. In real life, I love to wear just this soft shade of green, so when I saw it on the marketplace, I knew it was destined for my SL inventory. I chose to pair the Lara skirt with a full perm cropped tank top, which I was able to tint a matching shade. I used the “Show Color Under Cursor” command in the Developer menu to help me match the RGB in the top to that of the skirt, so it was easy to create a coordinated outfit. I think they go together beautifully!
Mesh Body Compatibility:

Side-swept
My new, free hairstyle is a Hair Fair gift from [elikatira]. My first time going through the fair, I completely missed this giftie because the display said simply “Color Demo” and I didn’t realize the little gem that was contained inside this gift box. With side-swept bangs and long tresses draped over my left shoulder, this new ‘do fit my style perfectly. It contains nine color HUDs packed with all textures [elikatira] offers, and, best of all, was completely free at the Hair Fair shop. When you navigate to the store, the gift is located on the floor in the right hand corner. Simply click the display and buy it for 0L.
Help Me, I’m Melting!
It’s another super warm day where I am in RL (116 degrees Fahrenheit – “HOT”! according to Siri), and I am trying my best to stay cool. It’s a good thing I don’t have to worry about high temperatures in SL. I can run the AC in real life, and while away the hours in complete comfort. Until my next post, happy shopping!
Hello Fabulouses! Ripley and I dusted off his tracking harness, and hit the hunt trail again. This time, the pupster and I sought out little white skulls during the Brii Underground Punk Rock Girl Hunt. Each of the ten punk rock themed prizes in this hunt cost 1L and feature a complete outfit. At the landing point, there is a board which displays the variety of hunt gifts and also a hint giver, which I found very useful.
Punk’s Not Dead…
…at least that’s what the Lokele t shirt claims. The black side-knotted top features a gray, guitar-wielding skeleton, which definitely gives the shirt an edgy feel. The asymmetrical, cropped hemline provides a sexy glimpse of your tummy. Gray and black plaid capris with white stitching and riveted pockets coordinate beautifully with the theme of the outfit. To wrap it all up, flat black sneakers with dark gray socks complete the look. Quite a bit of care was taken with the amount of detail in these shoes, from the suede texture with white stitching, and the untied laces, to the herringbone-patterned soles.
Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:
Mesh pants in XS, S, M, L, XL for classic avatars
Mesh T shirt in XS, S, M, L, XL for classic avatars
Alpha layers for top and shorts for classic avatars

A New Multi Hue Updo
The edgy feel of my new outfit called for a different style hair than my usual, and the Zoe updo from EscalateD fit the bill perfectly. Completely freeto Fab Free group members, this hairstyle features long tresses gathered in a large bun at the back of your head. A few wispy strands dangle realistically down near your ears and the back of your neck. The dark ebony hue of the hairstyle is brightened by highlights which provide vibrant pops of color. A texture change HUD allows you to customize the base color and streak color of the highlights, offering a range of 15 colors across the rainbow spectrum. I decided to use purple tinted eye shadow to play off the streaks in my hair. It’s not a look I’d wear every day, but it made for a fun change up!
Ripley and I will return soon with another Fabulous Find to share with you. Until my next post, happy shopping!
