Greetings, Fabulous Readers. I am so pleased that more and more designers for men’s wear are becoming part of our Fabulous Designers list. Our gentlemen certainly need a few more options. So you can imagine I was quite pleased to see Max Magic and their generous free gift.
This is the “Bone’s Patched Trench Coat” out fit and it’s free to all our FabFree Group members. The Coat comes with the layered hoodie beneath it. You’ll receive three colors for the trench with different colored hoodies. There is also a matching outfit available for the ladies. Just wear your FabFree Group tag and of course, the Group is free to join.
Hey FabFree! With all the events and Hops and shops and hunts going on, I decided to send some of my “associates” out to gather up some of the goodies. So today, ya’ll get Alistar showing off a couple of thefree giftsfrom the Valentines Day Shop & Hop.
This is the ‘Aito’ short sleeved hoodie from GothiCatz. You’ll get the black and a sort of red/pink heather color tops each with the anatomical heart on them. Perfect for guys to have hearts for Valentines but still look ‘not girly’. 😉
Sizes Included
Belleza Jake
Legacy
Signature Gianni
SLink Male
Next from the Shop & Hop is the cute heart pose from DPSP poses. While this is labeled the “male” pose heart it could easily be unisex. The female pose comes in an identical heart prop but she’s posed in the center. It would be easy to move the hearts together if you wanted two Avis pose on the “same” prop for a really cute couple’s picture. Both hearts are, of course, freeto everyone.
Alistar’s new hair style is also afree gift but not from the Shop & Hop. He’s wearing the ‘Neil’ style from Vango and you can pick it up as a freepast Group gift. Just wear your free to join Group tag and collect it and several other gifts. ‘Neil’ comes with a HUD of classic colors and a tinting page so you can make just about any color you desire.
Hello again, FabFree Readers. As the title of my missive here indicates, it is indeed, a happy weekend. As many of you know, one long running Grid wide sale is the 60L Happy Weekend Sale. And as such, there are several very nice offerings for the gentlemen of Second Life.
One of the nicest deals is from Chuck Size’s Calvin Turtleneck. Extremely well designed and built it is quickly becoming one of my favorite pieces. There are 5 colors in the 60L sale and even more in the regularly priced fatpack. One other note, the Calvin comes in two versions of each size. One with a higher waist one with a lower for various styles of trousers.
The 60L Happy Weekend Sale, of course, runs through the weekend however many venders leave the sale up for a few days. But don’t count on it, sales can be fleeting things so don’t let this one slip away.
Hello and Happy New Year, FabFree. ‘Tis the Season for new things. Fresh ideas and new paths. And a perfect time to add to your “cool clothes”. Byrne is the very epitome of new and cool. So let’s start there.
Right now, you can pick up this very cool open shirt from Byrne for free when you wear your equally freeByrne Group tag. There is a matching look for the ladies as well. The “Chenille Tartan” comes in two variations: one with a teal collar and one with the red plaid. I did, however have trouble getting the teal version to work for ‘Jake’. Your mileage may vary.
The “Chenille Tartan” is the current group gift and you are surely aware that gifts can come and go quickly so don’t delay getting this one for the cool side of your wardrobe.
Good evening, Fabulous Readers. As I’m sure you already know, Second Life’s 19th Birthday is going strong and there are many many free gifts to be had at the Shop & Hop. Sadly, there aren’t many offerings this round for the men but I did ferret out a good gift from Vagrant. You may be forgiven for thing Vagrant has nothing for men as the booth shows only women’s clothing. But, at the main store there are some very nice things for the guys. While the selection is small, the quality is high and I thoroughly enjoy spending my free Shop & Hop 500L Gift Card there.
Simply collect your free store credit at the Shop and Hop booth then follow the LM to the main store. Right now, everything in the store is 50% off but it still allows you to use the store credit! ( That may change quickly as the 50% sale was scheduled to end yesterday but was still going at the time of this post) I was able to pick up several things including the pants, top and hat I’m sporting in the photograph. The gift does not mention an expiration date but I wouldn’t tempt fate.
Hey ya Fab Fam! I probably don’t even need to say it but… it’s Tuesday!! which means it’s time for 25L Tuesday. And both C&N Designs and Muneria are getting back to the old days of 25L Tuesday which meant RP stuff!
C&N Medieval Designs, a long time excellent source for RP clothes for both men and women has this amazing smexy “Pirate” outfit for the men that Gabe is lookin’ so good in today. The out fit comes complete with the top, pants and boots! Plus the vest can be worn with or with the shirt.

My rakish set is also a 25L Tuesday find. This is the “Cusu” set from Muneria. You get the tunic top with the bracers and belt wrap plus the leather pants. The HUD for both items is huge with plenty of choices. I know my RP character will be wearing this one for our next role play date.

Good afternoon, FabFree Readers. I know it’s rather late in the day to be posting a 25L Tuesday special since Tuesday is on limited time now. However, I had to get the word out. Viki, a smashing designer for both men and women has this full men’s set , “Jadon” for 25L Tuesday.
While I was at Viki’s main shop, I also found an unadvertised sale on a great pair of boots. Just the thing needed to finish up the outfit. The ‘Kane’ boots were only 10L for the pair. I foresee using these quit a lot as they are very well made and stylish.
We men do sometimes get overlooked when it comes to specials and sales. Or it’s another set of sweats or a baseball cap. But this is perfect for those of us who RP or prefer to live in a somewhat different era. As with many of the participants in these day long sales, this deal will be gone after midnight. So hurry along.
Good morning, Fab Free Readers. The calendar may tell me it’s Spring but it’s still rather cold here in the real world. 25 degrees this evening and that’s before our chance of snow this coming weekend. While the shops and designers are bringing out the bathing suits and shorts, I still want something warm I’m afraid.
In deference to that, I have found a very nice new coat, scarf and sweater from a new-to-me designer – R3VOLT. The shop doesn’t appear to have an in-world store any longer but their Marketplace store is up and running. This is the “Sterling” coat but really it’s the entire top in one piece. That’s coat, scarf and sweater. There is also a HUD to change all three plus the pocket square to any one of fifteen color/pattern choices. All this for a low 10L price makes for an easy bundled up ensemble indeed.

Russians – Sting
Hey gang!
Just popping in to show you what I found for Cray and I to show our support of Ukraine (the stories just break my heart).
Really as the Sting song Russians says “There’s no such thing as a winnable war”, which every time there is a warlike conflict, that line pops right into my head. Back when I was a teenager and this song was first released, I never thought that so many years later it would become relevant again. Sting has another song entitled “History will Teach us Nothing“, another line that pops into my head all too often.
It’s all just leaders and their egos. If we could all remember and embrace that we are all the same on the inside, perhaps there would be no more wars. But then I am an idealist, and most leaders are not. It makes me so sad that when the leaders of countries are fighting, the ones who pay the price every single time are the people who are unfortunate just to be living in the country and who are basically innocent in the conflict.
But that’s just how this little idealist sees it. I know it is a lot more complex than that (isn’t it?), but the complexity still does not make it the right thing to do. War has never solved a problem, except to reduce the population and gosh hasn’t the pandemic done enough of that lately?! The moment we are on the brink of returning to normal, someone’s gotta start killing people another way. Sigh.
My mom got me involved in penpalling when I was 11, and my first two penpals were Japanese. Over many many MANY decades I wrote and made friends all over the world (including Russia and Ukraine!) and not a single one was very different from me. The cultures are different, yes, but inside we are all so much the same. Same worries, fears, hopes, dreams… Same wanting to be understood and accepted for who we are.
They say world peace and understanding begins in a small circle of people, like family and friends. Perhaps if we all just put some love and understanding out to someone we know who needs it, or whom we have *not* been peaceful and understanding to in the past, perhaps those little bits of energy can begin to shift the energy on this entire planet and help more people find peace and start to heal.
Just my thoughts, but I came here for freebies/dollarbies so please forgive my long-winded-ness.
I wanted to find something both Cray and I could wear to show our Ukraine support and I found a matching set on market. Thanks to Angel’s Jewelry who has this set available on market for both genders for only 1L. You get a full outfit for the girls (shirt, bodysuit and skirt) and a matching tee for the guys. The mens wasn’t transfer so I had to send a second set to Cray as a gift. These fit as follows:
Mens:
Jake
Signature
Slink

Womens:

I also found this cute hair bow from Sugarplum Boutique on market for free!
