We’re getting closer to Valentine’s Day, and I for one am happy to get more and more covered in hearts. Aren’t you?
Love Bites (Sometimes)
It’s time for this year’s Love Bites Hunt! That means hundreds of prizes all on one lovely sim. Prizes are all under 25L on this fun hunt, and you’ll find them hidden in conversation hearts all over the sim. I picked up this top and skirt by Loki – I am always crushing on their prizes for these hunts! As mentioned, the top and skirt are 25L each and are just too cute to pass up. The Love Bites Hunt runs until February 17th, so get on over there and find some of the goodies! You’ll find the Loki hunt key below!
There are just so many freebies and goodies around the grid right now, my head is just spinning!
For this post I’ve been visiting advent calendars and also Planet29 which is celebrating a birthday and has gifts galore! I haven’t even opened them all yet. I guess that’s something to do to keep me warm in this unsavory ice cold weather!
Let’s start with the advent calendars, I got this gorgeous tree for free at Simply Shelby (I love her stuff!) via her advent calendar. She has had some really cute stuff in it. No group needed and its free! Each day is free, but it is also only available for one day only. I’ve already grabbed this cute tree and another on another day.
Now Planet29, I have a plethora of Planet29 goodies for you. All free, no group needed for any of it. Just click the gifts in the booths. Can’t beat that with a stick! Let’s go down the list…
My top is from Yumi, I love that it says “shut up” cause thats how I have been feeling lately! lol It fits:
Maitreya
Legacy
My cute skirt is from Loki. It fits just Maitreya. (Oh but it is soooo cute!)
My hair is from Ayashi. My little Stars Tattoo are from Rainbow Sundae. My little white flower tattoo is from Sunniva, and my cute bag is from Mintae. Lastly, but not leastly, The sparkles in my hair are from LuluB.
Whew! So much time and so little to do. Strike that, reverse it.

Mondays always call for a little bit of extra oomph. My go to for oomph-ishness is some neon, a smattering of bright colours, and a bit of shine all over. You can’t really go wrong that. Well, throw in a milkshake and we may just have a slice of heaven.
It’s Abstrakt!
We’re welcoming the Abstrakt event to the grid this month, and to celebrate opening their doors, pretty much every single booth has a freegift for members of the free-to-join group. You’ll find a little glowy box at each booth, and plenty of cool gifts inside. Here’s what struck my fancy:
FREEskirt by Hysteria sized for Belleza Freya
FREEnecklace by Loki
FREEheadband by Ginko Hair
FREEpose by Secret Poses with 8 poses in the box
FREE backdrop by Oinc

Right, the vamp is back in town. Lock up your teacakes, because she’s here to cause a ruckus. Or you know, knock back some Empress Grey with her pinky out while pretending she’s actually a badass. Whatever, she is who she is – an enigmatic mystery that can only be unwrapped when you learn if she prefers french fancies or battenberg cake. Ooh, dark.
Anyway…
Right, let’s get to the gifts! Your first stop today for this dark and sexy look is Loki! They put out this gorgeous latex dress over Halloween, and I’m just now getting to it. It comes with several different Halloween options (like ghosts and spiderwebs), but happily for us slowpokes there are also several plain colours in the HUD in case spooky time passed you by (or it’s just not your thang!). There are loads of gifts on the Loki wall (inlcuding some freebiestoo) so the 99L joining fee is totally worth it. Enjoy!

And Shoes!
I was super excited when Breathe announced that they had a new group gift – this pair of super classy heels! They come in a full fatpack of colours, and you can colour the bow and shoe separately for maximum versatility. The group is freeto join – head to the very back of the store (straight ahead) to find this gift and a few others. Plus, they’ve got a 50% off sale going on right now too! Yippee!

The countdown to Halloween is well and truly on now, and I for one am having such an awesome time dressing up, showcasing cute spooky gifts and finding even more of them to show you. Sometimes finding something new and cool to blog can be a bit of a chore – but when there are tons of events, hunts, gifts and fun, it totally give me a thrill to post each day!
Spookzilla Time!
The Spookzilla hunt is back! It’s probably one of the more challenging hunts on the grid, seeing as there are no clues, and the little hidden ghosts are ALL over the sim! With a bit of patience, and perhaps a dash of luck, you’ll be able to find plenty of gifts, all priced under 25L. I had a great time looking for goodies (there are SO many awesome prizes this year, it was super hard to choose what I wanted to show you!) and settled on putting together an outfit with the following gifts:
25L top by Loki sized for Legacy & Maitreya
25L skirt by Look at Me sized for Freya, Hourglass, Legacy & Maitreya
15L hair by Yomi
All the hunt keys can be found at the landing point – a notecard will be sent to you when you land. I wish you and your eyeballs good fortune – you’ve got until November 1st to take part!

It’s that time of the year for one of my favourite events! The Crystal Heart Festival is here – complete with magic, sparkles, and about 40 million Sailor Moon references. It’s always an exciting event to wander around, because there are loads of pretty creations to drool over. If you’re not in the mood to spend any Lindens though, I’ve got some great news – plenty of freebiesto be had!
Space Girl
Everything kawaii, sweet and sparkly is what really attracts me to The Crystal Heart Festival year after year, but I also do have a special place in my heart for Sailor Moon since it was such a big thing when I was in High School. You’d often find me singing “Fighting Evil by Moonlight…” while wondering exactly why the girls were always dressed as sailors. Anyway, you don’t need to join a group to pick up the lovely freegifts at The Crystal Heart Festival, just click on the little pink heart-shaped boxes at the stalls (most will have one, but not all) and then revel in the cuteness within. Here’s what I’ve got on!
FREEHair by Love in 12 fantasy colours and an RGB input HUD
FREESkirt by Loki sized for Maitreya bodies
FREEfloating animated orb by Petrichor (it’s soooo mesmerizing)
FREEshoes by Exia sized for Maitreya and Legacy
The Crystal Heart Festival just opened, so it’s quite busy at the moment. If you can’t get in right away, don’t despair – it’s running until August 27th
I’m getting out of bed suuuuuper late today. The spirit wasn’t moving me to go and…do *things*. So, I hid under the blankets until the things went away…or I forgot what the things were in the first place. Either way, problem (sorta) solved!
Open Up
The Veles sim has just opened up to shoppers, with several of my favourite stores (and some new to me ones as well). The exciting thing is that they’ve got freegifts out for everyone who stops by for a visit. You’ll have to hurry though, these items are slated to be taken away tomorrow – July 3rd. No group join required, just click on the boxes. Here’s what I’ve got on:
FREEpyjama pants by Loki sized for Maitreya
FREEpose by Mirinae with 3 poses and their mirrors in the box
There are a few other goodies too, which you can see in the vendor photo below.
Right, off you go – go get the goodies!

I’m having visions of the South of France again. Days spent driving down the N7 highway, listening to French pop music, the wind in your hair and the promise of a good meal when you reach your destination. I spent a large chunk of my early years sitting in the back of a Renault Clio staring out the windows at the giant sunflower fields basking in the sun, wishing I could be running through the rows instead of just looking at them on the way to a castle. To be fair, the castle was always great too, but running through a field of sunflowers can never go wrong.
Cosmo Finds
I mentioned the other day that Cosmopolitan had a second round of anniversary celebrations, and this round had so many nice gifts that I really wanted to show you a few more of my faves. The Cosmopolitan group is freeto join! Here’s what I’ve got on:
FREEshirt by Loki sized for Maitreya
FREEshoes by Seniha sized for Belleza, Hourglass, Legacy & Maitreya
FREEpose by Le Poppycock
Don’t forget, this round of Cosmopolitan runs until May 29th!
I think this calls for a picnic in the champ de tournesols!

I am the perennial list writer. I have lists of to dos, lists of completed items, lists of lists… It’s just a thing I do. It makes me feel more in control of everything I’m supposed to be accomplishing. I think I need to start my list of Christmas to-dos ASAP, as I’m falling a bit behind. The problem is, I’m more in the mood for some treats – a slice of panettone and a cup of hot chocolate would go down right before I get down to business.
Seeing Stars
When I saw this dress from Loki, I knew I had to have it. I like anything with stars on it! It’s their latest group gift, and it’s oh so pretty. You can get your very own deep blue and star peppered dress by joining the Loki group for 99L and clicking on the vendor. You’ll find plenty of other gifts there too, so totally worth the join fee.

Apple Fall sure are churning out the awesomeness these days, and I was so excited to hear that they have yet another freegroup gift out for their group members! The Ariana bureau (the pretty desk behind me, with most of the clutter on the shelves) is yours for the very affordable price of 0L. Just join their group for free, and ta-da! Can’t say no to that!
Ok, after this little sip, time to write that list!
