Hello there, Fabulous Readers! I’m popping in with a quick post tonight to share a super cute casual summer outfit that I picked up over at Legendaire for just 29L. This little gem is an offering for the Queen Sale and includes texture change HUDs for the pants and top, which both include 8 options for customization. The shirt (which comes in solid colors) has a sheer hem section, halter style neck strap, and a sweet tie in back to hold it all in place. The trousers feature vibrant prints, a string tie waist band, and a close cut, figure flattering style. A pair of white and pink heels complete the outfit, but do not come with a HUD for changing colors. They look great with the rose and pink options for the clothing, but I didn’t really think they went with the blue floral pants, so I opted not to wear them for my photo. Although no classic avatar version is included in the package, popular mesh body styles are tucked inside. I’m not sure how much longer the sale will last, so if you like the Alana Outfit as much as I do, I’d recommend a quick trip over to the shop to pick up a copy for yourself.

The pupster is feeling a bit under the weather today as he had surgery to remove a tumor over the weekend. He is really despising the dreaded “Cone of Shame,” but I keep telling him it’s for his own good. He insisted he cannot eat or drink while wearing it, and promised he would leave his stitches alone, so I relented and took off the offending wardrobe accessory. However, I caught him trying to lick his incision, so back on went the “lampshade.” He refuses to show his face for photo ops until after his stitches are removed. The poor guy. He hasn’t yet seen his shaved spot … and I don’t have the heart to tell him about it.
Happy 4th of July to my fellow Americans! Forgive me for using a title from a British band, surely that’s un-patriotic on a day like today. haha But I absolutely love Def Leppard and I went to their show last night so I couldn’t help myself. Anyway. I already went on about how much I love the 4th of July in my last post on the subject so I’ll spare you today. I took a trip to the boardwalk last time and now I’m at the place where all of the independence Days of my youth were spent – the lake. And obviously I’ve got freebies to show you!
Bikini
My bikini is a free group gift by Legendaire. It is not one of the newer group gifts, it’s on the wall in the back with aaaaall of the other older (but still fabulous!) gifts. Hopefully my slurl will lead the way to where you need to go. The Legendaire VIP group is 49L to join and there are lots and lots of nice gifts, you’ll literally be unpacking for days! And by literally, I mean figuratively. The bikini is one piece and also comes with a really cute little robe (blue with white stars). Both are sized for:
Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
Maitreya
Slink Houglass and Physique
5 Standard sizes XL-XS
Sparkler
I love this sparkler from peaches! I’m going the walk around all day holding it, just see if I don’t! There are options to change the color, turn it on and off, or set the duration. Oh and it has some poses too that let you wave it around which I’m not using. It is a freegroup gift and the .peaches. group is free to join.
Pose
This great pose is a free group gift from K&S and the group is free to join. My animations folder is out of control but I can’t help it, I love poses soooo much. If you feel the same way that I do then you can run on over and add this to your collection!
Alright, I guess that’s enough from me. I’m going to run off to blow something up and kiss a bald eagle. ‘Merica! Happy 4th!

I found a fantastic outfit at The Wash Cart Sale – and it put me in the mood for the swinging 60’s. Whenever I think about that, I imagine London, England. You know, Carnaby Street and Mary Quant and Miniskirts. I hear the sounds of The Beatles in my mind, and I totally want a giant pile of chips. Though I think the chips thing is completely unrelated (seriously though, if you’ve never had fish & chips in England from a chip shop, you need to do it because your life will be altered forever… so so gooood). Anyway, I found the nearest red post box and struck a pose!
Be Legendaire
At The Wash Cart Sale, I found the booth by Legendaire which is filled with fashion-forward goodness. This skirt and top combo cost me 10 measly Lindens, and is super versatile. Of course, you can wear them separately, but they also come with various different textures that range from psychedelic to demure. There’s even a jean option in there. So Good!

Extend Your Empire
To very little fanfare, Empire’s May group gift appeared in the main store. It’s these cute bootie-style heels complete with fishnet features. I really think you could make these work in loads of different situations. You may know that the Empire group is somewhat expensive at 500L to join, but there are still a bunch of gifts out to make up for the join fee, including shoes, boots and clothing. The word on the street is that last year’s gifts will be disappearing soon, so if you’re planning on joining, I suggest you do it soon! These shoes come with loads of colour options, and are sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink.
I need to find some chips now. SEND HELP!

Hello there, Fabulous Readers! As the weekend is wrapping up, I wanted to pop in quickly and share a couple of Fabulous Finds with you. I hope you like them as much as I do!
She Wore Flowers in Her Hair
Ripley and I headed over to the Medieval Fantasy Fair, and he helped me locate this free gorgeous Daisy Wreath. The cheerful yellow flowers and bright green leaves lifted my spirits as soon as I put it on. It fit perfectly over my Ophelia hair from Truth, but it comes with full editing rights, so you can stretch it if need be. Best of all, once we located the hunt object, a moon with a star and a cloud, it was completely free. The only cost was a little bit of our time spent searching…. which I didn’t mind at all. After you arrive at the Fair, head to the Lunaria booth, and the prize is hidden inside.
Bold Floral Print
To coordinate with my lovely daisy crown, I wanted to find a yellow dress, and it took me a few days to settle on just the right frock. Over at Legendaire, I spotted the Susan Maxi Dress, which comes with a texture change HUD packed with ten choices for the main body of the dress, and 20 options for the bodice section, all for just 59L. With so many textures to choose from, it was like getting a whole bundle of dresses in one box. A leather purse is also included, but I decided not to wear it for my photos. Although I donned the mesh body version, the package also contains mesh for classic avatars as well. I love wearing maxi dresses in RL, and was thrilled to find such a pretty one in my SL travels.
Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:
Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, and L
Alpha layer for classic avatars
Freya
Isis
Maitreya
Slink Hourglass
Slink Physique

I hope your week gets off to a fantastic start tomorrow. It’s back to the grindstone for me, and back to guard dog duties for the pupster. Sometimes I find myself wondering during the day exactly what he is doing. I have a feeling he spends a lot of his time snoozing until the cats decide to have some fun. One of my cats, Loki, seems to enjoy teasing poor Ripley from the other side of the gate. It would be interesting to have a camera set up to catch some footage…
Until my next post, happy shopping!

Seeing some Nanaimo Bars in the cafe at The Mill sim today while taking some photos made me wonder, just how many people from different countries know about Canada’s favourite confection… This no-bake layered dessert bar named after the British Columbia city Nanaimo, is quite possibly the most deliciously sinful treat on the planet. I don’t live any where near Nanaimo, but around the holidays these bars are in every bakery on every block, in every province (and apparently at The Mill too). Here’s a link to a recipe if you’d like to whip up a batch wherever you are – NANAIMO BAR RECIPE.
So… What I actually Came To Tell You About…
Legendaire put out a free gift for everyone! There is no need to even join the group (unless you want to!) – The Ella Gift is priced at 0L at the main entrance on a decorative table. The Ella Gift is the lovely belted coat you see me wearing today. This gift comes with a texture change hud that allows for four different prints, and also includes a pair of heels for slink high feet!
Smile for the camera, Fabulouses! In my post yesterday, {HERE} I told you about a gift from Legendaire, and also mentioned the fact that there are a ton of other outfits set out for lucky group members. I decided to show you another one of the free items up for grabs in the shop. This cheery tunic is bound to raise your spirits with its botanical motif and jaunty black and yellow color scheme. If you’d prefer a red and orange print, a green striped background splashed with large magenta hibiscus flowers, or perhaps a teal and black paisley pattern, you’re in for a sweet surprise, because this versatile present also includes a texture change HUD. With long sleeves designed to shield your arms from UV rays, and a playful peek at a bikini top underneath, you will be all set for an impromptu trip to the beach.
What’s Included:
Fitted mesh
Summer Tunic HUD (with four texture options)
Alpha layer for classic avatars
Brienne bag (not worn in picture)
Brienne flip flops for Slink flat feet
Some Beach, Somewhere
Thanks for the suggestion to travel to the seaside for a romantic evening, Carson! Ripley and I had a great time snapping pictures as the sun went down. What a relaxing, perfect way to end a manic Monday at work! (tune)
Hello there, Fabulouses! At the Mystical Fae Forest, Ripley and I found an enchanted harp surrounded by softly glowing candles. As we stepped closer, the wind began to pluck the strings, playing a lovely, haunting tune. The pupster and I stood entranced as even the local reindeer paused, and tilted their heads to listen to the melody. It was a magical night in a forest of dreams.
A Fabulous Frock for a Legendary Evening
Emma is the latest free group gift from Legendaire. With a solid-colored bodice and hem, accented with bright swirls of paisley, this maxi dress is slender at the waist to emphasize my figure, but ends with a comfortably loose, slightly ruffled skirt. Narrow straps left my shoulders free to feel the caress of moonlight on my skin. The gift box includes a HUD which offers a choice of 3 textures. I was torn between the dark blue and magenta floral swirls, a bold black and white pattern with pops of pale teal, and this red, white and teal paisley pattern. Every one of the options was equally appealing. Although joining the Legendaire group will set you back 99L, there is an entire wall in the shop packed with 12 group gifts, all free for members. A teleporter on the floor will whisk you off to a plethora of other outfits also set out free for group members. I considered 99L a fair investment for so many generous gifts.
What’s Included:
Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L
Alpha layer for classic avatars
Emma HUD with 3 texture options
Emma flats (not shown)
All Good Things Come to an End
As the clock approached midnight, my canine Prince Charming nudged my hand, breaking the spell, and reminding me that this Cinderella has to get up bright and early for RL work tomorrow. Bidding the reindeer and the spellbinding harp farewell, Ripley and I journeyed home. Until my next post, here’s wishing you magical encounters, and happy shopping!
It’s been a pretty busy couple of days for me out in the real world (the kind that leaves you feeling as if you’ve been trampled on by a small herd of elephants). While all of this stampeding activity is far from over I thought I’d take advantage of a lucky little lull to sneak onto SL for some much-needed rest and relaxation. Seeing how it’s St Patrick’s Day, a green outfit was in order and happily enough Baby Monkey’s new free group gift, Else, was just the dress for this occasion. This quarter sleeved, collared shirt dress has a chic retro vibe to it that’s accentuated by the pretty bowed belt at its waist. The cherry blossom print of the Else dress not only adds a dash of sweetness to the outfit but a lovely contrasting white as well. What I adore most about this new group gift, however, is its versatility. You’re able to wear the blouse and skirt components as one single outfit or wear them individually to mix and match with other pieces of clothing in your inventory. The gift package includes a hud which lets you switch up between two different colors (warm green and bright blue) for the blouse, skirt, and belt, opening up more combinations for you to play around with. Sizes include:
Blouse:
1 Fitmesh size with alpha layer
Slink Physique and Hourglass
Belleza Venus, Freya, and Isis
Maitreya
Skirt:
1 Fitmesh size with alpha layer
Slink Physique and Hourglass
Belleza Venus, Freya, and Isis
Maitreya
Dress:
1 Fitmesh size with alpha layer
Slink Physique and Hourglass
Belleza Venus, Freya and Isis
Maitreya
The Baby Monkey Group costs 20L to join and to add the Else dress to your collection you’ll just have to pay the vendor 1L before getting an instant refund. Use that dollar to snap up the other current group gifts at the store as well (past group gifts cost 10L each).
Accessorize
Speaking of eye-catching colors, the Aishas set from Legendarie certainly fits the bill very well. These lovely fuschia heels and matching clutch bag are a free gift for everyone, meaning that you don’t have to use up group slots or tap any sub-o machines to get your hands on them. There was no way I could pass up on these flirty strappy slingbacks (only made for Slink high feet, however) and the fact that there’s a matching clutch thrown into the mix just sweetens up the pot. There are two different versions of the clutch bag included in the gift package, one worn on your avatar’s hand and the other worn higher. You’re able to move, rotate and stretch the clutch and permissions are set to copy so do make backups before editing. I’m not sure how long this pretty gift will be out for so get it ASAP. Legendarie is a generous store that set out free gifts fairly regularly so I would recommend putting it on your ‘must watch’ list. Though there’s a 99L group join fee there are tons of past gifts to pick up at the store.
Hairstyles
One of these days I’ll stop writing about the Liaison Collaborative’s birthday round but that day clearly isn’t today. There are so many great free gifts by awesome designers and I was really excited to discover that there’s not one but two hairstyles that you can snap up at the event at no cost at all. The Ullrika hairstyle from EMO-tions is a great messy updo that allows you to just toe the line when looking for something elegant by not too formal. The pretty braided details of the Ullrika hairstyle are a very nice touch as well. In the gift package, you’ll receive
Two versions of the Ullrika hairstyle, one for larger chests
Huds for the Black/White, Blondes, Brunettes, Reds and Pastels palette colors. Each hud contains eight tones and a resize script
Fatpack of tattoo hairbases for classic avatars
Hairbase appliers for Catwa, Lelutka and mesh heads using the Omega system.
Hair alpha layer
The Liaison Collaborative’s birthday round is running until the end of the month so go and snap up your gifts if you haven’t already.
And that’s a wrap. I’ve got my keys right here and I’m pretty sure I haven’t left the stove on. Time to hit the grid and take a peek at those Fifty Linden Friday offers. Happy St Patrick’s Day! I’ll catch you guys later!
Hi Fabulouses! I had a whole other post ready to put up for you this afternoon, but came across this very time sensitive offer and wanted to get the news to you quickly, so this post jumped ahead a little bit!
HURRY TO LEGENDAIRE!
I am so not kidding! Seriously, RUN to Legendaire and join their inworld group right now, because for a very short, very limited time the group is free to join and there are a TON of freegroup gifts to pick up! I am not sure how much the group usually is to join, but I do recall it was over 100L. I don’t even want to waste a minute going on and on about what I’m wearing today because you might miss out on the free offer, but I am wearing just one of the many group gifts available called Emily that includes the gown (with 4 different textures incuded) the necklace and earrings too!
