The Sporty Illusion

Take me out to the….game of some form of athletic exploits…take me out to the….socially distanced and masked croooooowd, buy me some hypoallergenic peanuts and crackerjacks (if they still make those), I don’t care if…. Wait, what was I talking about?  Oh yeah! Time to pretend that I’m in to sports or something!

Cuckoo for COCO

There’s a new group gift at COCO!  This red sporty tee is pretty great because it has the detail of being twisted and draped at the back for a bit of showing off of one’s back!  I always love a twist on a classic, and this totally falls into that category.  The COCO group is free to join, and there are lots of awesome gifts to add to your inventory there.

Sn@tch is Back!

Yep, you heard that right!  After a very trying 2020 and start to 2021, Ivey Deschanel of Sn@tch is back inworld creating.  We wish her all the best with all the hardships she’s gone through (you can read her message about what went down with her in RL by clicking on the subscriber unit in her store).  As is her wont, she has first thought of her many fans and graciously updated the Lucky boards (and riot boards) at her store.  I was ever so patient and managed to get this long, and piled high hairstyle for free (no group join required) as well as the socks I’ve got on  (they come with an omega applier as well as system layers).   There are way more new things on the boards there, so well worth checking out!  We’re happy you’re back Sn@tch!

Go team go (or whatever)!

Play in the Paint

I’ve been going through a bit of an artistic phase.  Some phases are a bit more prevalent than others, but since I’ve been spending much more time at home (as one does these days), I’ve been picking up my paintbrush a bit more often than I had been doing in the past.  I’m a great proponent of making lemonade out of lemons, so my rediscovered love of making art falls squarely into the making the best of it category!  I picked up a few fun, free finds today that really reminded me of how happy I am that I’ve got loads of paint to be creative with.

Hunting Time

It’s time for this month’s edition of The Free Dove hunts!  The featured designers this time around are Ydea Style and Shiny Stuffs.  The way this hunt works is that you have to join the free Free Dove group, then look for 5 hidden items at The Free Dove, and 5 at both Ydea Style and Shiny Stuffs!  If you’re searching for goodies from Ydea Style, then you’re looking for a little cupcake, and if it’s Shiny Stuffs you’re hankering for, then look for the little powder compact.  It’s all free, and it’s all fab!  I got this jean skirt from the offerings of  Ydea Style, and the shirt and sparkly tears come courtesy of Shiny Stuffs.  Take a peek at the hunt keys below!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass

You’ve got until May 31st to take part, so happy hunting!

Dive Right In

Right, I’ve decided it’s officially summer in SL.  To be fair, it’s usually summer all year if you want it to be, but I have decreed it to be so now.  Time to put on your loudest bikini and dive into the fun of the season!

In the Miix

The Miix Event rages on this month, and they’ve just set up a fun hunt that you can take part in.   In order to grab the goodies, just join the Hype Events group for free, then search for the little orange slices around the event.  There’s also some fun free finds for guys too!  Here’s what I put together:

• FREE bikini by FurtaCor sized for Maitreya, Freya, Isis, Kupra, Hourglass Petite, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya Petite & Hourglass
• FREE scrunchie by FurtaCor
• FREE glasses by FurtaCor
• FREE floatie by Tequila with pose included

Back to Nature

I went for a ramble through nature today and listened to all the glories that can be found therein.  Birds chirping, leaves fluttering in the light breeze, and even the chatter of a squirrel or two.  I love the time of year where petals are slowly floating through the air from blossom-laden trees, and all seems full of life and promise.  Ok, I got my poetic jag out of my system, let’s get to the deals!

7 is a Good Number

It’s time for another round of 77th street, and with it, plenty of great 7L deals!  I stopped by this round and picked up this lovely dress by Faida for just 7L, as well as these cute wedges by Lybra (sized for Kupra, Freya, Legacy, Maitreya, Slink and Tonic) at 7L as well.  Don’t forget that the 7L deals at 77th street come in limited amounts, so if you’re into it, don’t delay!  Also, don’t forget to pick up the free pair of shoes for FabFree members too!

Dress Sizes

• Legacy
• Legacy Perky

77th Street runs until May 27th.

The Magic of Colour

The magic of colour is something that I’ve pondered fairly often.  Isn’t it wonderful how it can change your mood?  How it can calm you down, or even whip you into a frenzy?  For me, pink can be either filled with electric vibes to get me moving, or it can be sweet and innocent.  I think I’m half way between today, and luckily I need a bit of a zap to get the weekend started off right…but not too much madness for me, please.  Just a bit of it!

Pink

If you’re in the mood for a bit of bubblegum fun and sweet, then it’s totally time for you to head over to the Orsy event!  There’s a free gift for members of their free to join group, and it’s this lovely halter dress by PULL.  If pink isn’t your thang, then you’ll also find blue, black, red, sand, and white.

A Slice of Citrus

Today I’m feeling distinctively citrusy.  I’m a tall glass of water filled with slices of orange, lime and of course a really long and superfluous straw.  I’ve got summer on my mind, even though spring feels like it’s barely underway in my neck of the woods.  Time to tuck a flower behind your ear and get the carefree feeling that is synonymous with the season of sun.

What, Again?

I feel like I’ve been doing the same song and dance the last few days, finding great gifts from awesome events that are celebrating milestones this month.  Welp, I’ve got yet another one for you today, I hope you won’t be too mad at me for filling your inventory up!  It’s time to celebrate EBento!  Just join their free group, and you’ll be rolling in the free gifts for ages!  Here’s what I found:

• Free top and skirt by ADD sized for Kupra, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya & Maitreya Petite
• Free purse by My Bags by Mia Blauvelt with several different pose options
• Free glasses by Roslyn
• Free earrings by Supernatural

There’s a heck of a lot more there too, so you’re sure to find a little sumthin’ sumthin’ you love.  EBento runs until May 31st!

Private Party

In the age of social distancing, I couldn’t agree more with the sentiment that this shirt is pushing!  Though honestly, I have never been more thankful for the existence of Second Life since March 2020, where I can hang out with friends, go to parties, and have adventures all from the safety of my own home.  But, still!  Sometimes one just needs to have a private party!

Another One!

You may have noticed that events with gifts are popping up all over the place at this time of year, and I am the very last person to complain about the generosity and inventiveness of designers!  Today we’re celebrating The 4 Seasons Event’s 1st anniversary, and in true SL style, there’s a free gift at every booth.  Just join the free 4 Seasons group, and click on the little boxes.  Here’s what I’m showing off:

• FREE top by The Bold Llama sized for Freya, Isis, Venus, Ebody, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and XS-XL with an alpha layer
• FREE glasses by Oops (so cute! so superfluous!)

There’s lots more to discover, and you’ve got until May 22nd to make it happen!

Happy Birthday 4 Seasons!

I Dream of Granita

I’m right in the frame of mind where I’m ready to be on summer vacation.  My brain has filled with visions of light fabrics, sunny skies, scudding clouds and a nice lemon granita.  The summer always brings a nice sense of calm, and the thought of shoveling snow or -30 windchill is nowt but a distant memory.  Time to do some basking!

The Price is Right

Over at Poème right now you’ll find this absolutely perfect summer dress priced for just 75L for a limited time.  There are a bunch of lovely different textures to choose from, so if you black and white isn’t your thing, you’re sure to find something else that delights just as much.  You can also change the belt to black if you’d prefer!  Again, this deal won’t be around forever, so don’t wait too long!

Mooo!

Apparently cows are in now.  It’s a thing that I never thought I’d actually see, I guess, but apparently it’s happened.  The closest to cow patterns I ever got in my *ahem* youth, was the cow print chupa chups that were all the rage.  Also, let me just go on a rant about Spice Girls chupa chups, because I was all over that scene.  Wait, how did I get here again?  I don’t know, but… mooo! – I’m a cow for now!

A Shot of Saki

It’s time for yet another event filled with gifts!  I never tire of the generosity, and I love opening presents.  The Saki event is a fun little event full of colourful things, and there’s a free gift (no group join required) at every booth.  Here’s what I’ve got on!

• FREE Shirt by Reed sized for Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Physique & Venus
• FREE Skirt by Angel Pink sized for Freya, Hourglass, Maitreya, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine & Venus
• FREE Glasses by No Cabide with matching earrings in the box

Oh hey, it’s me again!  I’ve got awesome news from Blueberry!  Let’s get down to the details!

Happy Birthday!

We’re at 9 years of Blueberry goodness, and to celebrate, there’s lots going on!  For the next 5 days the whole store is 50% off!  Yessss!  Oh but wait, that’s not the super exciting part – you’ll find that if you join the Blueberry group for 20L, you’ll find a gift card for 500L of store credit in group notices!  Woohoo!  I picked up all sorts with my gift, including the pants and top I’ve got on that only set me back 125L on that credit each.  You’ll want to try your best to get in in the next 5 days to be able to get the 50% off.  If you can’t get in to the main location, you can also cam shop from HERE.  Oh, and be careful, you have two weeks to use the store credit from the moment the card is activated, so be sure you’re honed in on exactly what your heart desires.
