How is this post about zombies?

Hey there, FabFree!  Monday got ya down? It could be worse… you could be a zombi instead of just feeling like one! But Grumble is telling me that everything is Better with Zombies.  Confused yet?  I can explain. See, Grumble is hosting a sweet mini hunt in the stores of their mall running along the Twisted Hunt. And they’re calling it the “Everything is better with Zombies” Hunt. I assure you that this mini hunt is not at all like the Twisted Hunt which is as hard as it’s rumored to be. The Zombie hunt is just for fun and for great free prizes, of course!

Speaking of great prizes, I am in love with these super cute pajamas from Ari-Pari, “Creepy Monsters.” The roving eyeballs are creepily adorable! You get the top and shorts as two separate pieces and a HUD for five color choices. The top and shorts can be colored separately as well for fun mix and match.

Sizes Included

• Belleza – Freya, Isis, Venus
• Legacy
• Kupra
• Maitreya
• SLink – Hourglass, Physique

If you look close you’ll see my second gift from the Hunt, the Barrow’s Landing Bracelet from Loordes of London. I don’t usually show too much jewelry but this bracelet is so nice. The stones are like sea glass or polished pebbles. I just love it.

The “Everything is Better With Zombies” Hunt (( <- This LM will take you to Grumble’s main store and a kiosk of photos of the Hunt Prizes)) will run until Sept 30th so shuffle over to the Grumble mall and get to hunting!

Top + Shorts – Ari-Pari @ Grumble Mall – Creepy Monster Set – FREE/0L – Free prize for the “everything is Better With Zombies Hunt

Jewelry – Loordes of London @ Grumble Mall – Barrow’s Landing Bracelet – FREE/0L – Free prize for the “everything is Better With Zombies Hunt

Bedroom Look

I’m not usually one to walk around in lingerie, but there’s a time and a place for sexy, revealing and cute bedroom looks. I have just a couple free gifts for today including  dumplings, and a great hairstyle shared in my “bedroom look” today. 

The Features!

The adorable and yummy dumplings I am showing today are the latest free group gift at Birth. These dumplings are available to wear by holding them in your hands or in your mouth. I’ve been wearing these in my mouth around the grid because they are sooo cute and look like little kitty cats. 

The other gift I am showing today is the beautiful hairstyle, which is another free gift on the Men Only hunt. You can find this lovely prize at Limerence. The hair comes in a pack of pastel colours, and it is a unisex style that can be worn by all genders. See my post here and Gabe’s post here to read more about the Men Only hunt. The hunt ends on August 30th, so you only have a couple of days left to hunt and gather!

Roadblock

I’m suddenly feeling like I’m in some music video that involves very impractical outfits and motorcycles.  At least in SL I don’t have to worry about such mundane things as helmet hair, right?  (Stay safe on the roads, y’all!) Anyway, I’m feeling a bit crazy and a lot cool in my new finds!

Roadside Assistance

I found my awesome jumpsuit over at Paré (in 15 different shades) on the lucky boards.  I didn’t even know there were lucky boards tucked away in the shop, but there are some really great free ones for both male and female avatars.  You can get all sorts of fun stuff without even joining a group, just wait til your letter comes up!

• BBL

Top it Off

And it’s time for some cool new free hair over at Limerence!  This fun top knot comes in a full fatpack of colours so you can go as crazy or staid as your heart desires.  The Limerence group is free to join (there are two groups, this one is from the free to join group – be aware!).  How fun is that?

See you guys on the road!

Hello FabFree Folks!  It’s already a new week and it’s going swimmingly! My poor laptop is back up on it’s feet and I am back to blogging. And what better way to celebrate than to celebrate with one of our own FabFree Designers and the FabFree Group Gift!

This is the Merris Sailor duo set from YoUnique Couture. And when it says duo it means two for you! You get the tank top and the cute bolero length slacks times two. One set with the anchors pattern and a second set with a really cute stripes pattern. So that two complete outfits for the price of one… which is free! The pants and top are both separate pieces so you can mix it up if you like.

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day

It’s a very drab dreary day here in the Real world today. Everything is rainy and drizzly so I need some sun! Even if it’s “just” my newest little summer sundress. 

This is the “Karen Dress” from Dreams and isn’t it a lovely sunshine yellow!? The crocheted look is so delicately done and shows off just enough without reveling too many secrets. But you might want to find some pretty sunny yellow panties to wear with it, if you catch my drift. 😉 Plus, if yellow isn’t your thing, the included HUD will let you pick one of twelve other summery colors.

Karen is the current gift up for the Teleport HUB group over at Dreams. Just wear your tag and slap that board! The Teleport HUB Group is a measly little 10L to join and then you get access to hundreds of great free gifts all over the Grid. Oh, and while you’re there, be sure to pick up the FabFree Group gift for free as well!

Sizes Included

• Belleza – Freya, Isis, Venus
• Maitreya
• SLink – Hourglass, Physique
• Tonic – Curvy, Fine

Different Drummer

As you might have noticed by now, I am an eclectic, off-center, quirky kinda girl.  The outfits I choose might not be the norm, or rather, the combinations I put together for outfits might not be the norm, but someone has to blog for the outcasts.  Those of us who walk to the beat of our own drummer and don’t fit in with the mainstream.

In Second Life as in real life, I’m kind of a loner.  I’m borderline hermit sometimes!  Only those who take the time to get to know me, get to see the quirky sparkle I keep hidden from most of the world.  I’m quite used to people looking at me like I am something that just dropped in from outer space that they aren’t quite sure if they approve of.  (ok that might be over use of the word “quite”).

I’ve never joined the throngs of people who hang out at clubs, or have big families in sl, I’ve mostly wandered by myself and being the way I am, its been good most of the time.  I’ve had those lonely moments we all get from time to time.

And until I became a part of fab free I’ve never had a group of friends in sl, oh sure I had a couple of short lived friends when I first started (2008!) but that was just for a couple of weeks because I worked as a dancer as a lot of us did when we started (and I was *terrible* at it and hated it!  I’m horrible at being phony) and that’s where I had the friends.

Now with Fab Free, I have a wonderful circle of ladies that I am so proud and honored to call my friends and sisters.  The awesome thing is, we are all sort of quirky and off center in our own ways and so we are all very accepting of one another.  It’s a very happy place for my soul.

I know I went off on a bit of a tangent there, but this outfit was an odd mix and it just got me thinking.  It’s an odd mix but I love the way it fits together.  I’m also a girl who loves hats in both worlds, and I loved these boots.  😉  But I know, shush now Arielle, quit rambling and tell us about the freebies n such!  ok ok!

Now back to our regularly scheduled program!

This cute dress I am sporting is a 1L find for the Around the Grid 9 Hunt created by Pearl’s Treasure Chest or PTC.  This hunt goes from July 13 to September 30 (I’m not ready for fall yet!!).  It fits:

• Freya
• Isis
• Venus
• Ebody Curvy
• Maitreya
• Hourglass
• Physique

My boots are from MOoH! They are a free Third Life Group Gift and that group is 10L to join.  They fit:

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Maitreya
• Physique
• Venus

I hope your Monday morning is going as well as can be expected gang!  I’ll be back with more fun freebies very soon!

Roses

Heyya FabFree! I’m back to being my own sweet self after my trip to the dark side. Certainly, putting on todays outfit helped change my mind back to being a creature of light and happiness. 😉

This is the “Enchanted Rose Set” from Melt and it’s allllll free for the FabFree Enchanted Forest Hunt. Can you tell yet that I am enjoying the heck out of this Hunt? I loved hunting in the green space of Melt’s SIM along an enchanting path with bunnies and deer and unicorns and so, many. flowers! It’s gorgeously done and a pleasure to walk through.

There are five pieces to find to complete the set and I am very impressed with the design and quality. I plan to tuck this beauty into my closet for my RP times.

The FabFree Enchanted Forest Hunt runs until July 22!

Sun Drenched

Hello again, FabFree. I hope this day of remembering leaves us with a renewed sense of hope and pride in our nation. I saw a quote on FaceBook saying that we should enjoy today with BBQs and beach trips and enjoying our country because that’s what our service men and women were always fighting for. So thank you to all our past Veterans for the sacrifice made for us.

I know that train of thought doesn’t really go with fun and sun on the Grid but I’m going to press on. I visited the Tres Chic event today and if you haven’t yet… you need to. There are free gifts at most of the booths and there are some really nice gifts for this round. Aline showed us a bunch here. I picked out this easy breezy outfit from three different vendors for us today. I love the simple white skirt and top combo from Vague. This is “Tahiti” top and skirt and it is the free gift I’m talking about. The top and skirt are separate pieces for mixing with other bits and bobs for your wardrobe or getting a perfect fit. 

Sizes Included

• Belleza Freya
• Maitreya
• SLink Hourglass

My new bag is also a free gift. This is the “Soho Leather Bag” from Keem and it’s one of two gifts for the Tres Chic group. You can find this one up on the table at the entrance. The bag comes in five colors, each with a scriptless and scripted version. I loved this subtle green one but had to flip a coin to see which color I liked best. They are ALL awesome.

This last gift gave me my giggle for today. These lovely slip on sandals are from Art&Ko. When I saw the name is when I chuckled. They are “The Bright Colors of Summer Sandals – Brown” Really, I though… brown? Brown is a bright color of Summer?  But then I put them on and loved them. The ‘brown’ is really more of a tan-ish nude color. Which, in fact, IS a great color for Summer! 

Sizes Included

• Legacy
• Maitreya

The Tres Chic event runs until June 10th so hurry over for your Start of Summer shopping!

Hanging Around

Hey FabFree! How’s it goin’?  I’m just hanging out and enjoying all the awesome goodies I found last weekend! I have a lot of freebies and group gifts to share with you today so I am going to jump straight in! 

Goodies @ The Gacha Garden

You can pick up a few gifts at this round of The Gacha Garden and I am showing a few here, including:

• Free BOM stockings in Purple, Black and Brown from Morbid Mausoleum
• Free heart earrings and glasses from No Cabide. This is the same gift that Aline blogged yesterday; you can pick them up at both events for free!
• The table next to me is also a free gift at The Gacha Garden! The table comes in several options, and options to use the table with or without the candelabra, goblet and yummy chocolates on it.

There are a few gifts around the sim, so enjoy all the free gifts this round has to offer! You just need to join the free Bellatech group and the join code for that group is here:

Gachas!

I also had the chance to play some fun gachas at The Gacha Garden. Most of my outfit, including the dress, boots, the skull headband, the backpack and the cat handbag are all part of the Gothic Lolita Gacha by MOoH! Each play is 50L a try, and you can see the gacha key below of everything available on the gacha. When you play 20 times you will receive the heart choker for free, and I just love the cute little skull choker too!

Dress & Boots Sizes Included

• Lara
• Freya
• Legacy
• Kupra

The Gacha Garden ends on May 31st, so go check this great event out before the end of this month!

More gifties!

I also am wearing a couple more group gifts from around the grid to create this look.

• The cute heart animation on my chest is the latest group gift at LuluB. The LuluB group costs  150L to join, and this gift is adorable! The little heart moves around and flashes lights and sits on your chest.
• My gorgeous lipstick is the latest group gift at Trend. The pack comes with 12 colours, with appliers for Lelutka Evo and Origin, Catwa HD and Pro, and Genus heads. The Trend group currently costs 250L to join.

• My skin- called Lotte – is a camper chair prize at 7 Deadly S[K]ins which you can get if you camp on a chair for 50 minutes. This offer is available for group members of 7 Deadly S[K]ins , and their group currently costs 295L to join. This skin is a BOM skin designed for Lelutka Evo heads. 
• Finally, this adorable hair is a free gift from {Limerence} over at the current anniversary round of FaMESHed, and it comes in a number of cute pastel colours! The FaMESHed group is free to join. Make sure you go back to Aline’s post here to see more gifts you can get at the FaMESHed anniversary. FaMESHed ends on May 27th so you still have some time to collect all the gifties!

Keeping Busy

There are swathes of time in SL where suddenly there’s a lot going on.  We seem to be heading into one of those chunks of time, where so many different events are celebrating anniversaries, and then deciding to spoil us all because of it!  I’m definitely not one to complain about that.

Happy Bday Cosmo!

It’s time to celebrate Cosmopolitan’s 9th anniversary!  This staple event always has something awesome to pick up, and this round is filled to the gills with free gifts.  To get them, join the free Cosmopolitan group, then click on all the little crates at each stall.  Here’s what I found:

• FREE Dress by Mondial sized for Legacy, Freya, Hourglass & Maitreya
• FREE Glasses by ZK store
• FREE Hair by Limerence in several pastel hues
• FREE Makeup from Poema with BOM layers, and Omega and Catwa appliers

This round of Cosmopolitan is running until May 15th!

Enjoy!
