Fierce Love

Under the cloak of darkness, among the wisps and fireflies such a moment exists when love conquers all, even for fearsome Drow. The realm of the Dark Elves has taken over the Twisted Hunt this fall. Will you be able to brave this difficult journey and seek the hunt prizes through decoys and without hints to their location?

The fall Twisted Hunt with the Drow theme will end September 30th, with the End Game lasting through October 17th. Don’t wait to embark on this quest for free Dark Elf inspired gifts and prizes. Blue and I both took on the Twisted Hunt, though I admittedly did not complete the full hunt. Thanks to quite a few of the free Twisted hunt prizes, he and I were able to create these striking Dark Elf characters.

Guilty Pleasures

Hello Fab Free! If you’ve ever seen the movie Ocean’s Eleven you’re familiar with Brad Pitt’s character in the film and the fact that he always had snacks. I find that very relatable. lol Thankfully Second Life makes it so easy to be indulgent. Today I got to indulge my fondness for food, and fashion.

Le Poppycock

This delicious looking pink drink and the corresponding bento pose are one of the many gachas from the “Guilty Pleasures” gacha set by Le Poppycock currently featured at The Pose Fair. These gacha poses are all various sweets and savory treats that I couldn’t resist spending a few lindens on. This Le Poppycock gacha is just 69 lindens per play, and since they are transferrable you can trade them. The Pose Fair is open until September 28th. Also, don’t forget there are free Pose Fair group gifts!

Afrotay

Now for the fashion! This cute red dress is a free group gift by Afrotay. I couldn’t resist the stylized snake graphic. I think it’s so interesting and unique. I also really like the way the shoulder straps come together in the back, and I am wishing I’d taken a photo of it to share with you. The dress comes in a pretty bright yellow color as well as this vibrant red. The Afrotay group is free to join, and there are multiple group gifts available.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, MeshBody Legacy

It’s all too Easy

In Second Life, there are always those who will take up the mantle of helping others.  I know we often focus the negative things that happen, but you really have to look for the people who are doing good.   Although the Stay at Home Club is coming to an end (you’ve still got 9 days!), there are other groups stepping up to fill the void.  I’ll tell you all about one of them today!

So Easy

Easy Finds for Hard Times is a free to join group that aims to put together free gifts to lift our spirits during the fun adventure we know as 2020 (that adventure thing was sarcasm, ps).  I picked up two of the free gifts today, including…

• FREE Fall Decor by Kim’s Kreations, with lots of poses included.
• FREE Dress by Rogue Echo sized for Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Maitreya, Physique & Venus

If you peek in group notices, you’ll find the list of all the gifts that are currently available, and more are being added daily.  You can join the group by pasting the code below into local chat:

Hooray for helping hands!

Conversing with Spirits

Hello Fab Free. We’ve made it more than half way through the week, hallelujah! Recently I did a bit of wandering through Second Life and stumbled across the Tlalli event. I’d never been before. Let me just tell you, the setting for this shopping event is gorgeous. It’s a beautiful Latin themed event in a vibrant setting that made me feel like I had been transported to a quaint town in Mexico. The setting alone is well worth the visit to the Tlalli event. There I picked up a few of the gifts some vendors had out while enjoying the scenery. Speaking of gifts, I also picked up the new group gift at SPIRIT, and a thank you gift by Rosary. From here I’ll get to telling you about all these fabulous finds. I hope you enjoy them!

Tlalli Gifts

Zinnias

I think this llama succulent planter is just the cutest. It is a free gift at the Tlalli event by Zinnias. This little guy is completely free, just look for the gift box at the Zinnias booth at the Tlalli event. No group is required.

Cherry Bunny

If you’re wondering about the bright green sugar skull in my hand, it too is a gift at Tlalli. You’ll find this 5 linden gift at the Cherry Bunny booth. What is it? It’s a typer! Wear it and it will appear invisible until you begin to type in open chat. Then the sugar skull will appear in your hand, you’ll give it a little shake and appear to listen to it. So cute!

SPIRIT

Next up, this cute deep grey colored sweater is the newest group gift at SPIRIT. It could be worn as a dress or a top. I found it fit nicely over my Blueberry jeans (listed in the credits). The sweater has a hud with it that allows you to change the color of the cute side ribbons. The SPIRIT group has a join fee of 25 linden, and there are past group gifts available as well.

Sizes Included: Belleza (Isis, Freya), Slink Hourglass, Maitreya Lara

Rosary

My manicure is a lovely free gift from Rosary as a Thank You gift to all customers. There is no group needed for this pretty set of nails. The set has a few preset options with very pretty floral accent nails. Each hand size included also has several nail lengths to choose from. You’ll find this free gift waiting in a little package on the desk at the Rosary main store.

Sizes Included: Maitreya (short, medium, large, xl, xxl), Belleza (short, medium, large, xl, xxl), Slink (short medium, large, xl, xxl), Legacy (short, medim, large, xl, xxl)

Caticorn Cuteness

Hellooo there Fab Free! Does anyone else sometimes dress to fit their mood? I find a lot of the time my outfit is an almost direct reflection of how I am feeling or what I want to project. That said, these caticorns from Reed definitely suit my silly playful mood. Together the pose and the outfit are such a fun vibe. My playful pose is a group gift by Hazeel at the Pose Fair. I love it when I find free gifts that play well together!

Reed 

These pink shorts and the cute as heck caticorn print top are a free group gift at Reed. The Reed group is free to join, and the previous group gift shown here is still available. The only things better than unicorns, are caticorns. Just saying.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Slink (Physique, Hourglass), Belleza (Freya, Venus), MeshBody Legacy

Hazeel

It’s Pose Fair time! Hazeel has this super fun bento pose out at their booth at the Pose Fair for free. You’ll need to join the event group (it is free to join) and wear the tag when you click the gift box to get your copy of this great pose.

That Autumn Air

Welcome back to the blog Fab Free’rs! I have a quick post for you today. American Bazaar has this super cute blue and white striped top out as their free September group gift. It’s so cute on, I couldn’t wait to share it with you.

The American Bazaar group is free to join. To get your copy of this off-the-shoulder top, just wear the group tag and click the gift vendor. The shirt comes in the color shown with several size options.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Belleza (Freya, Venus, Isis), Slink (Physique, Hourglass)

That’s all for now. I’d better get these pumpkins, and Herman in before he decides to try and eat one of these fireflies!

**P.S. Aline showed us this cute free pumpkin cart by Hive in her post “Fall Freshness.”

Smile it’s September!

Can you believe that September is finally here?! I feel like it’s been the longest summer I’ve ever experienced. Needless to say I am counting the days until it’s officially fall. Although, I kind of do enjoy this bit of time at the end of summer when you can start to mix a bit of autumn attire in with your warm weather wardrobe. I did just that with some finds from Pink Cream Pie and Red’s Little Secrets. Have fun, and happy weekend Fab Free’rs!

Pink Cream Pie

Pink Cream Pie put out this adorable turtle-neck sweater as their September group gift. I’m not sure whether the cute little critters across the chest are foxes or kitties, but just like the shirt says, they definitely make me smile. Pink Cream Pie has a join fee of 314 linden, and quite a few past group gifts still available.

Shirt Sizes Included: Maitreya (Lara, Petite), Slink Hourglass, MeshBody Legacy, Belleza Freya

Red’s Little Secrets

I love the look of the this skirt from Red’s Little Secrets with the sweater. It’s a free gift for the Stay at Home Club. There’s no need need to join a group for this free gift, just click the vendor and click “deliver.” I do want to point out that it does stick through the sweater in the back a little, but not enough that it bothered me. Even so, this free skirt could go with so many things, it’s well worth the effort to pick it up. Also, Red’s Little Secrets has several Stay at Home gifts, including some male items.

Skirt Sizes Included: MeshBody Legacy, Slink (not specified which), Maitreya Lara, Belleza (not specified which)

Lilacs & Lace

If you haven’t made your way to Uber yet, I highly suggest you go. It’s so worth the trip for the genuinely fabulous free gifts during this anniversary round. For this post I’m sharing with you the free Uber gifts from Mossu, Carol G, MonCheri, and Tip2Toe. There is no group requirement for any of these gifts, just click the giftboxes or purchase them for zero linden.

Mossu

My gorgeous lilac lace camisole is the free Uber gift from Mossu. I definitely had an “ooo” moment when I tried it on. It comes in the lovely lilac shade shown and a few sizes.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Belleza Freya, Meshbody Legacy

Carol G

If you’ve been looking for an utterly feminine almost lace-like tattoo, look no further than the free gift from Carol G at Uber. This upper-body tattoo comes in BOM layers and several opacity options.

Appliers Included: Omega, Slink, Maitreya, Belleza, Legacy /BOM Layers

MonCheri

I really love the look of this simple yet elegant necklace by MonCheri, which is also free at Uber. It comes fitted for a few body types, and has a hud with a few more color choices than the usual metal colors. I even found a pretty metallic purple to match my top.

Necklace Sizes Included: Rigged Belleza (Freya, Isis), Rigged Maitreya Lara (Original, Petite), Rigged MeshBody Legacy (Original, Perky), Unrigged Mesh

Tip 2 Toe

Lastly, I couldn’t resist the allure of the pretty purple mani/pedi appliers from Tip2Toe. They are of course free at Uber as well. The polish is a French tip style with nude and purple tip options.

Appliers Included: Omega, Maitreya

Never Too Early

Alright, I know what you must be thinking… “Pru, it’s August.” However, while I understand the sentiment, we will just have to agree to disagree on whether or not it’s too early in the year for jack-o-lanterns. I like to refer to September through the start of November “Halloween Season.” I’m without a doubt, no shame at all that person who begins to decorate for fall Halloween starting the first week in September.  It’s been a long week and my favorite time of year is ever so near. So, I decided with a little help from Goddess Creations to get my fall vibes going a little early this year.

Goddess Creations 

This handsome carved pumpkin complete with brightly lit black candles is a free group gift at Goddess Creations. This guy is big, and will make a statement wherever you decide to make a home for him. With this gift you’ll also get an equally large held version of the pumpkin. Along with my new jack-o-lantern I picked up this too sweet pajama set for free with my Goddess Creations group tag. Who knew owls and cupcakes could be so cute together?! These pajamas come sized for Maitreya Lara only. Right now you can join the Goddess Creations group for free and get these two group gifts (and a few others) for free as well.
