Silent Lucidity

Hello Fab Free, I hope everyone who participated in the candy gathering part of the Halloween festivities has successfully recovered from their sugar coma and is doing well. It it’s own way, finding great group gifts and freebies around Second Life is a lot like trick or treating minus the sugar rush. For this post I picked up the latest group gift at PumeC, a free pair of earrings at ChicChica, and the Fabulously Free in SL group gift by Birth. I hope you like them as much as I do!

PumeC

The skin I’m happily wearing is actually just half of the most recent group gift at PumeC. This generous gift includes 2 skins, one for Genus head  wearers (not shown), and one for Catwa head wearers. Both skins come in the “February” tone and have body appliers along with the head applier, cleavage options, brows or no brows, as well as 2 system layer skins. To get your copy of this beautiful skin you’ll need to join the PumeC group. There is a one time join fee of 399 linden.

Body Appliers Included: Legacy, Belleza, Slink, Maitreya, Omega

ChicChica

For what I am sure is a limited time ChicChica has out a free pair of pumpkin earrings. They come with a color change hud that has several metallic options. These pretty free earrings do not require a group at this time either, so do not wait to head over to ChicChica and pick them up.

Birth

These icy blue mesh eyes are the free Fabulously Free in SL group gift at Birth. I love the slightly heart shaped pupils, I think it gives them a unique look. These free eyes can be yours just by wearing your Fab Free group tag and clicking the gift vendor at Birth. If you’re not already a Fab Free group member, the group is always free to join.

What are you going to BEE for Halloween?

Oh my goodness Halloween is sneaking up fast!  Do you have your costume in order?  Maybe you are looking for something a little more on the cute side rather than the gory, creepy or scary style costumes.  I think I have found just the perfect thing for you and it won’t cost you anything if your magic is effective!

Keep calm and “hocus pocus”

Decoy is participating in Hocus Pocus this year with an adorable Bee Costume.  All you need to do is head on over to Decoy, find the Hocus Pocus vendor, and type “hocus pocus” in local.  It might send you the free gift, or it might tell you to come back tomorrow and try again.  If you are magical enough, you’ll be sent the following, and if you know your magic is unworthy / you have no patience…  you can just pay the vendor 50L and have it too ;).

What’s included in the pack:

• Antenna Black
• Antenna Yellow
• Fluttering Wings
• Janessa Bodycon Dress in Black (Belleza Freya & Maitreya Lara) – FYI, this will be great after Halloween too
• Janessa Bodycon Dress in Yellow (Belleza Freya & Maitreya Lara)
• Janessa Bodycon Dress in Stripes (Belleza Freya & Maitreya Lara)

To learn more about Hocus Pocus and see other stores participating, you can visit their official blog [HERE]

Hello Fabulous Readers!  Ripley and I had such good luck when we checked out the trail of the Dark and Brooding Hunt that we decided to keep searching to see what other Fabulous Finds we could unearth.  Over at The Sissy Bar, we discovered another gorgeous hunt prize for just 1 Linden Dollar.

From the Dark into the Light

This sophisticated, strapless gown will have you ready for an evening on the town.  Its slimming black fabric features a subtle floral texture and a criss cross design to emphasis your waistline.  The full length skirt section drapes to the floor where it flares slightly for ease of movement.  It is simple yet elegant and allows your beauty to take center stage.  With versions for classic as well as multiple mesh body types, there is something for everyone in this dollarbie hunt prize.  All you have to do is locate the collection of pillar candles hidden somewhere in the shop.  In case you get stuck, there is a hint giver in the store on the hunt poster.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

• XS, S, M, L, XL (includes alpha layer for classic avatars)
• Belleza Freya, Isis and Venus
• Ebody
• Maitreya
• Ocacin

Until our next post, happy hunting!

Pour Toujours L’ete

Hello there Fabulouses!  This little birdie told Ripley and I about a free group gift from Pour Toujours.  When we arrived at the shop, we were pleasantly surprised to find not one, but five gifts for various groups on display.  This super sweet crop top is my absolute favorite out of all the goodies on the wall.

Forever Summer

Although we might be saying good bye to the carefree days of summer in real life, in Second Life, you can make your own seasons.  That being said, I was happy to discover a warm weather shirt which is sure to become a wardrobe fave of mine.  The Trexy top features an intricately fringed, cropped hem as well as a neckline that dips daringly low.  Although I opted for a bobbed hairstyle, you might want to wear long locks for extra coverage of the girls in front.  It’s kind of difficult to see in my photo, but this shirt has an asymmetrical style with one slitted, half sleeve on the left and a sleeveless tank style arm on the right, which lends the outfit a funky, free flowing vibe.  The folder includes a texture change HUD with three color options – white, red and black.  To add this flirty little number to your SL closet, you need to be a member of the SL Frees and Offers Group, but since there is no fee to join, you can scoop up this gift completely for free!

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• Maitreya

Until my next post, happy shopping!

Last Days of Summer

I know it’s coming up on Fall. But heat-wise,  it’s still in the triple digits here in Texas. It’s hot. Stupid hot. Happily, we have three hundred and seventy miles of  ocean side beaches here. And those salty ocean breezes are calling my name!

DM must be hearing the call of the sand as well because their latest Group Gift is this awesome little one piece swim suit. The name says it’s the “Emily Bikini” but we won’t quibble. Not when it’s this cute and comes with a HUD for six of the very best fabric choices I’ve seen in a long time. Plus… the Group is free to join!

Happy 10th Anniversary Essences!

If I had to choose a favorite skin shop in Second Life I’d without hesitation choose Essences as m personal favorite. There are lots of amazing skins in SL. Still, Essences has for many years been the source of the skins I wear the most. Recently Essences celebrated 10 years in Second Life. In celebration their in world VIP group and the Essences Newsletter group are both temporarily free to join. There are also 3 new fat-pack Newsletter group gift head appliers.

Each of the 3 Essences appliers is for a different mesh head. There is one for Catwa, one for Genus, and one for Lelutka heads. These free gifts come with a head applier in each of the available skin tones with a light brow, dark brow, or no brow option. Don’t have the body applier to go with these gorgeous new skins? No problem. The body appliers are just 1 linden per mesh body type. I’m wearing the “Sybil” gift applier for the Catwa heads in the above photo. This applier was made with the Catwa Catya head, however I think she’s quite pretty on my Catwa Koura head. To get your copy of these absolutely beautiful free gifts make your way to Essences, join the free-to-join Essences Newsletter group, and click the gift vendors.

Someday….

Hello there, Fabulous Readers!  I hope your week is off to a fantastic start.  Ripley and I paid a visit to one of our favorite shops today and picked up this lovely belted frock in a vibrant color (which happens to be my go-to shade to wear).  Best of all, it was completely free!

A Quiet Country Walk With My Pal

With its long skirt and sleeves, and high neckline, the Frill Sleeve Pleated Dress from S@bbia had me thinking of leisurely walks enjoying the crisp autumn air.  Since it has been over 110 degrees around my neck of the woods lately, I really, really am longing for the respite of fall!  Someday soon, it will come, right?  I just love the diamond patterned, lace texture on the fabric of this sweet dress and the way the belt is loosely knotted around my waistline.  My first thought for how to style it was to make my outfit a little bit country with cowgirl boots and a hat, but I spotted these cute Asymmetric Sandals in S@bbia, and decided to opt for slightly dressier instead.  Either way you go, this frock creates a charming look.  The folder includes just one size as well as an alpha layer for classic avatars, but I think it will work well with various mesh body types.  To add this versatile dress to your inventory, you need to be a member of the S@bbia group, but since there is no join fee, you can pick up a copy without spending a single Linden dollar!  While you are at the store, you can try your luck on the Guess and Win board and check to see if your letter appears on one of the Lucky Boards.  If you bring along your own good luck charm, you just might walk away with more than one addition to your wardrobe.  I know I did 🙂

What’s Included:

• Mesh Dress (one size)
• Alpha layer for classic avatars

Until my next post, happy shopping!

Beaching until further notice

Hello there Fabulous Readers!  I have been very busy the last couple of days stalking lucky boards and gathering so that I can show you some fantastic prizes that you might like for yourself too.  Yesterday I showed you a lucky board prize at Kaithleen’s and today I am showing off a lucky board prize from [LsR].  There are several lucky boards set to group on the upper level of [LsR] near the group gifts, and this inworld group is free to join!

The Sexy Ahilani Set!

One of my favourite lucky board prizes at [LsR] is The Sexy Ahilani Set that includes the floral top and skirt shown on my avatar.  These are separate items so you can choose to wear them together or alone paired up with something else.

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Hourglass
• Belleza Isis & Freya

On a side note…

The Slide Sandals in Beige by COCO that I am also wearing were a gift at the previous round of Uber for their Anniversary round, however the event has now closed.  I am willing to bet that if you didn’t grab these at the event, you may be able to pick them up in the future at COCO in the group gift area soon.  *Maybe…  😉

Hello Fab Free’rs, I’m coming to you through space and time to share this cosmically cute dress! Alright, maybe not “through space and time” but rather from the second floor of the Safira store. Not too long ago Love did a post about the August Lucky Letter boards at Safira, so of course I had to check them out for myself. I saw this cute space themed dress and not only needed it for myself, but had to share it with you. Needless to say you should definitely head over to Safira’s second floor if you have not already. There are 8 total lucky letter boards, and the letters change quickly. Also, there is still a full wall of group gifts for Safira group members. The Safira group has a one time join fee of 50 linden. Happy Shopping!
