Spoop-diddly-umptious!

Hey gang!

So after three days of trying, I finally got into FLF-O Ween.  Yep, three days.  Nearly landed me in the loony bin.  Oops!  Did I say *nearly*.  I meant to say…. *clearly!*  As you can see, my head is spinning quite a bit from all those teleports to nowhere via my retry HUD.

Oh yes, and I’ve donned my bunneh mask and grabbed my lucky bunneh voodoo doll for comfort too (any guesses who I am using it on?  hee hee), oh and a perfectly *spooky* t shirt, so cute!

As a side note, I noticed lately, that spooky, sometimes becomes spoopy.  What is the difference between the two?  Spoopy to me sounds like what ghosts make when they use the little ghouls room.  Be right back, I gotta take a spoopy!  Or a speepy?  That will be the word for next year, you just wait!

But I digress!

Back to the matter at hand.  I’m showing y’all today the plethora of goodies I managed to spoop (erm I mean scoop!) up once I got into the Flf event.

My spooKy shirt (not to be confused with the little wet spoopy ones!) was so cute and that was a free gift (the gifts are free, but you do need to join and activate the Fifty Linden Fridays group, which is free to join) from Nectarine, and it fits Maitreya.  My pants are a free gift from Jeune by Rowne.  They fit:

• Freya
• Isis
• Hourglass
• Kupra
• Maitreya
• Legacy
• Physique

My shoes are adorbs and they are from Schadenfreude, another freebie at Flf and they fit:

• Belleza
• Maitreya
• Slink

Mask is from Aleutia (free).  (lots of designers with tricky names lately!)  My cute (and useful!  wink wink) voodoo bunneh is by Luas (another freebie).

Lastly my backdrop was a 50L find by Milk Motion.   There is much more to it than what I got to show here.

FLF-O-Ween runs til November 1st.

The Owlery

This post is filled with great deals that will help you achieve this fantastical owl look, so read further for the details! This post is chock full of freebies, so dig in for the free and magical fun my friends! 🦉

Free Gifts @ Fantasy Faire

In this post, I am focusing on freebies you can find at Fantasy Faire 2021. I had to hunt hard to find these, as the event is massive- 22 sims in total! I will break down down some of free gifts I found at the Faire below.

• The gorgeous owl mask is a free gift at Spyralle’s booth. Grab this little guy for 0L on the wall. This was a hard one to find, but it is so beautiful and intricate. What an amazing gift!
• This beautiful hairstyle is a free gift at Firelight’s shop at the Faire. This hair is so cool, because it changes colour every minute to a different natural tone! There is also a free men’s hair gift in their booth!
• The amazing shimmer on my body is a generous free gift from Ghoul. Just enter into their store at Valhalla and grab this gift in the middle of their display. This crystal shimmer is a materials applier that works on Legacy and Maitreya bodies only, as well as Lelutka Evolution heads. This applier can be used on Male and Female avatars.

•  Belle Epoque has a set of nails hidden in an object in their store at the Faire for free. Click the statue for the hint, and go hunt for it! The prize is a beautiful set of purple nails that work on Legacy and Maitreya bodies.

The Language of the Birds

Another way to hunt down some great deals at Fantasy Faire is to participate in their “Language of the Birds” hunt quest. Please read Juli’s post here to find out more details about how to play the Fantasy Faire Quest Hunt. By purchasing the quest HUD (it costs 250 L for the basic or 350L for the deluxe*), you are able to participate in the quest. The HUD can be purchased at Fantasy Faire Junction. If you solve the quest, you will receive a reward in the form of a bunch of gifts from various Fantasy Faire designers. The quest gift I am showing today is a set of beautiful floral horns made by EscalateD. These look like little floral branches that a little bird would stop to rest on!

The Quest hunt and the free gifts will be available until May 9th, the closing day of Fantasy Faire.

Other Freebies and Offers

My look today is packed with additional freebies and offers from various places around the grid, so here are some more offers I am showing off today:

• LSR currently has a 300L credit gift for all LSR group members. The group costs 99L to join. I bought this amazing dress I’ve had my eyes on for a while now. It’s called Yanikha Dress and it comes in 3 textured patterns. I purchased the dress in black and it was completely covered by the credit gift! The dress fits Legacy, Maitreya, Isis, Freya, and Hourglass. The 300L credit is only available until May 7th, so go get it quickly!
•  The rings I am wearing are a free gift at OVH that fit Legacy and Maitreya bodies. The group is free to join; just click the board and these lovely rings are yours! They include a HUD that allows you to change the colours of the metals and colours of the gems on the rings.
• My blue fantasy skin is a free group gift at Lumae. This skin is made for Lelutka Evolution heads and you can get it for free at their store as a group gift. This skin is BOM and it fits Legacy, Maitreya, Slink and Belleza bodies. The Lumae group is free to join.

Enjoy, FabFree!

Lilith

Hey Fab Free! Today I will be talking about the Call of Lovecraft event and hunt. The event ends on November 20th, so you have some time to check it out! The sim reminds me of the new series on HBO Lovecraft Country– as you can see by the octopus tentacles in the background of my picture I took at the event. How creepy and supernatural!

Call of Lovecraft Hunt

The main attraction of Call of Lovecraft is the hunt going on at the sim where many designers have put out hunt prizes. The hunt object you are looking for and the hunt keys can be found on Kaleidoscope Island’s website.

Generally, each hunt item costs 25 Linden per piece. I am wearing one of the hunt prize by Ari-Pari, which are a series of “Ancient Masks”. I am wearing Prize #1 in red to match my outfit.

More gifts!

There are also a bunch of free gifts at the event, which don’t require a group join. Simply walk around in the circle near the front of the event and grab all the gifts the designers have set out for 0 L. The necklace I am wearing is one of these free gifts, the Lilith necklace by Ari-Pari. This necklace is so elegant. I love the pretty black pendant; this is a gorgeous piece with lots of detail.

 

And Gachas!

As you go around the circle of gifts, you can also play gachas by different designers. My dress and heels come from Ari-Pari’s Lilitch Gacha, which costs 50L per pull to play. I absolutely LOVE the Lilith outfit- I must say it is one of my favourites I have ever found in Second Life. I love Victorian wallpaper prints and elegant clothing, so if you are into that this is truly the perfect gacha for you.

Sizes Included (dress):

• Belleza Freya, Venus & Isis
• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass

Sizes Included (shoes):

• Maitreya
• Belleza
• Slink

 

Enjoy the event, Fab Free!

The Time Traveler

Anyone who tells you Time Travel is a science, and not an artform, is a scoundrel. It is and must be both. You need to be able to finesse your way through multiple realities and get the calculations correct. For now, I’m going to slice through the curtain of time and get myself out of this Jurassic nightmare before one of these giant prehistoric lizards decides I might be a delicious meal. Safe travels my fellow voyagers.

The Engine Room 

Purely by happenstance I visited the Engine Room event. Lo and behold, it’s an Anniversary round! You guessed it, that means free gifts. Lots and lots of amazing free gifts. The theme is steampunk and the gifts are free with the Second Life Syndicate group tag. The group is free to join. I got all of them, and would have loved to show all of them to you, but that would just be tedious for everyone. Instead, I put together my Time Traveler look using the Engine Room gifts from Eudora3D, Apricot Paws, Wicca’s Originals, Deadly Nightshade, and Lux Aeterna.

Second Life Syndicate group: secondlife:///app/group/d35c55f4-6a4f-eb2d-1dae-af9665f6f4cd/about

Eudora3D

I think this hat from Eudora3D is possibly one of the coolest hats I’ve ever owned, and it’s absolutely free. The Witch Hunter hat is incredibly detailed. It comes with a hud that lets you change the metal parts gold or silver, and adjust the position and size of the hat. You’ll find this freebie waiting for you at the Engine Room event. Don’t forget the Second Life Syndicate tag.

Apricot Paws

My very Victorian-like blouse by Apricot Paws is also free at the Engine Room. It fits beautifully and I love the subtle pinstripes. This shirt comes in a tucked and a not tucked version for multiple wear options. This gift also has a hud that lets you adjust the color of the bow, the buttons, and metal bits.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Maitreya V-Tech, MeshBody Legacy, MeshBody Legacy Perky

Wicca’s Originals

The Havoc Mask is the free Engine Room Anniversary gift by Wicca’s Originals. This super cool accessory is unisex in that it comes in a male sizes as well as a female size. The details are awesome, and it fit me perfectly, however there are resize scripts in the masks.

Deadly Nightshade

I think this clockwork mechanism halo piece by Deadly Nightshade is so cool. Not only does it look cool with all the great details, it also has moving parts. The pieces attach separately so that they move independent of each other. That also means they can be worn all together or separately. This free Engine Room gift was the initial inspiration for creating a Time Traveling character.

Lux Aeterna

The golden scalpel and scissors by Lux Aeterna together are the first Engine Room gift I unpacked and knew I had to do something with them. They are gorgeous aesthetically, and have a macabre element that I really like. They also have these really awesome bento hold poses, that are just icing on the cake. You’ll find them for free at the Engine Room. Again, don’t forget to join the free Second Life Syndicate group and wear the group tag to get the gifts.

Paper faces on parade

the sea of smiles

The moment I saw this mask I had serious flashbacks of The Phantom of the Opera and KNEW I NEEDED to get this image in my head out by forcing you all to have a slight bit of Operatic Love!! I have to say The Phantom is pretty darn sweet for a creepy man who lives in an old building and stalks this woman. To think about it like that, I’m a bit creeped out but he’s still got an amazing voice that can sing me to sleep anytime. Without further distractions, I give you the new free group gift from =Zenith=

=Zenith= has updated their group gift this free butterfly mask is perfect for those Masquerade Balls!! This free gift comes with an unrigged mask with butterflies attached and a hud to change the colors of the butterfly and design on the main mask itself. This mask will make you feel mysterious and very sexy at the same time. Though we will all know who you are when we turn on the tags feature and see your avatar name floating above your head. ^^

Pandemic Fashion

Hey there Fab Free, I have to say that with all that is happening in the world, I am thankful for my Second Life. I’m also glad you’re here. While we are all “staying home” did you know that you can find “stay home” gifts on the Marketplace as well as in world? Some are available both in-world, and on the Marketplace. I don’t know about you, but with the higher numbers joining in on Second Life recently, I sometimes find teleporting to be cumbersome. With that in mind I picked up a few “stay home” themed free or inexpensive gifts from the Marketplace to share with you.

Koyuki

Nothing says pandemic fashion like a face mask. There are tons of face mask gifts floating around, this one is from Koyuki. It’s a unisex Marketplace dollarbie that comes in basic black or white with some minor color changes for 9 options in total. I liked that this mask is simple and fit well with some minor resizing/positioning.

Maryfer

Who doesn’t love a little buffalo plaid now and then? I suppose it could be just me, but somehow I don’t think I’m alone on this. My and black plaid top is a freebie on the Marketplace put out by Maryfer in the spirit of staying home and staying safe. This top is fitted for Maitreya Lara only. There’s also a free men’s version of this top. It too is red and black plaid. The men’s shirt is fully unbuttoned and sized for Signature male body/bodies. There’s no specification as to whether it fits a specific Signature body, or all of them.

Unfazed & Zombie Suicide 

Lastly, the hand sanitizer spray I’m using is a free collaboration between Unfazed and Zombie Suicide. This fun animated freebie worked well with my AO and static poses. The bento animation makes your avatar appear to pull the spray from a pocket, spray hands, replace the sanitizer in a “pocket”, and then rub the sanitizer in. It also has the added option of letting you pick how frequently your avatar will bust out the hand sanitizer. You can get your copy of this free animated hand sanitizer on the Marketplace.

Inspired…

Kat got all dolled up for a date night out and I was inspired to do the same, though I took my own spin on things since of course Kat and I have different styles. I found a couple of hunt items at Glitzz and also stopped by Redeux, which has just opened up and will be open until the 21st, to pick up free gifts!

Getting ready…

My dress from Glitzz, which could double as lingerie, includes panties and comes in a beautiful pearlized blue color with a lace hem and neckline and pearl shoulder straps. It’s sexy al la mode for sure. It only comes in Maitreya and Hourglass, but you might be able to do some fiddling to get it to fit your body type if you tried. For the price of 1L as part of the Honey Funny Bunny Hunt, it’s worth trying it out to see if this sexy number will fit your mesh body. It fit my Maitreya body like a perfect glove.

The choker.

My choker is a diamond masterpiece set in a gold setting. There is an included hud which allows you to change the setting to silver. There are two different chokers in the gift box … an unscripted version that is simply a pretty choker/necklace, and an open collar rlv version for those who want some adult risky play. This choker is a gift from Glitzz as part of the Evil Bunny Hunt and will only cost you 1L and a little hunting time.

Final Touches.

I wanted to add a little “sexy mystery” to my look and I found it at Redeux. This is the anniversary round, so not only are there lots of 25L items, 50% off items, and low price gachas, but there are also many many amazing free gifts. I picked up this lace mask by Viki with my free to join Redeux tag. There were free gifts at every booth though, so hurry over before the event ends on April 21st!

Mask appliers available:

• Lelutka
• Omega

Twisted Huntress

I’ve been able to bring you several roleplay posts lately… and it’s been a lot of fun to be able to do so. I have managed to put together an outfit today that is almost entirely free, expect for the pants and it would go great in a post apocalyptic setting, a sci-fi setting, or even a medieval fantasy setting.

It’s so twisted

The twisted hunt is on… with all its twisted cubes. It’s arguably one of the most difficult hunts on the grid, but it’s also one of the most rewarding with its excellent free gifts.

Roped Passions has a history of getting in on the action and this round is no different. The creator is giving away a main prize as well as 6 side prizes and will also have out a riot vendor as well this time around.

The main prize

You’ll want to hunt down this free Revenge Huntress Jacket as the main prize for the Twisted Hunt at Roped Passions! It’s a great piece for any sort of roleplay as I mentioned before and comes in crimson and black. It’s fully mesh and exposes the top of some cleavage without being overdone.

Shirt Sizes Available:

• Standard mesh XS – L
• TMP
• Maitreya – Lara
• Slink – Hourglass & Physique
• Belleza – Freya, Isis, & Venus

Boots too

One of the side hunt gifts at Roped Passions is the free pair of Vex Kreepers in Crimson Boots. They seem to be unrigged mesh and I found that by putting them on and then hiding my Maitreya feet they fit just perfectly. I think they would be adjustable to most mesh bodies. They are highly detailed and well made and as a side gift are free with a little extra hunting time.

Strike a Pose

I’d put together a roleplay outfit not too long ago in my post here when I visited the Imaginarium event. While I was there I also picked up a free pose from Dahila that you see in the picture above. It seemed to strike the perfect mood for my roleplay gear so I added it to my post. It would make a nice addition to a photographer’s inventory!

Details, details

Roped Passions has out 6 total free side gifts as part of the Twisted Hunt. I’m only showing you 3 in this post. The other 3 were just as amazing. You’ll want to find them all! Pictured above is the free Crimson Unisex Crown as well as the free Twisted Victorian Hunters Mask, each of which is a side gift that you can get for free by hunting for that twisted cube around the Roped Passions main-store.

If you hunt some more, you’ll also find a Gothic alter (not shown), a Snarky Cube (not shown), and Gothic Mushrooms (not shown). All these prizes are fantastic and definitely worth the hunt!
