By the Sea

Hey Fab Free! It’s a new month, which means new gifts and credits for all in our groups! I got all dolled up in the latest fashions and ready for a day out! It’s time for spring to start peeking through and my little Irish self is starting to pop out for the month of March!

Love from Paper.Sparrow

Bunnie is one of the most generous people I know, and especially to the Paper. Sparrow group members. I just cashed in on their monthly group 300L credit gift, and I used it to cover part of the cost of the Mary Heels colour pack. These shoes are fab! I love the sparklies on the platforms- adorable. Simply join the Paper.Sparrow group for 150L and you can get in on this credit gift every month. There are many items you can buy in the store which will be covered by the credit gift, so look around the store and see what you can treat yourself with!

Sassenach

Any Outlander fans out there? This hair kinda reminds me of Claire Fraser’s 1940s look… maybe it’s just me, but either way, I think this hair is super cute. This hair is yet another past group gift from no.match which I have been trying on lately. Simply join the no.match group for 50 L to get all the steals if you haven’t already. 😉

Well, that’s about it for today, Fab Free! I’m going off to enjoy my day by the sea…

Cuteness

Valentine’s is the perfect season for looking cute, which we all do. It’s time to get cute ladies, and today I’ll show you how to achieve this great look.

Another 500 L Giftcard!

I am unloading the news of gift credits this week, and Trend has a 500L Credit at their store out for group members. As far as I am aware, this offer ends and the credit expires on the 14th so go quickly. You must join their group to get in on this offer and the group costs 150L to join currently. I purchased the replay eyeshadow and queen eyelashes with the gift. I also grabbed all their group gifts at the back of the store, and a lipstick pack which is a free Second Life Frees & Offer (SLFO) group gift.

The Cuteness

The rest of my cute outfit is made up of freebies and cheapies I’ve been collecting all over the grid. Here are the details of my outfit:

• The hair is another group gift in the no.match group. This is the “No Addiction” hair, and it is located at the top of the building (cam up to the roof to grab it). The no.match group costs 50 L to join.
• The dress is a 10 L special by Ari-Pari at the Love Hurts Hunt. You can grab a total of 5 dresses at the hunt for 10 L each (see hunt key below). There are lots of designers offering cheap gifts at this event, and you can find more information about the hunt here.
• The sparkly nails are a group gift at Ari-Pari, which costs 25 L to Join. The nails come in 6 colour options, and they are super cute.
• These sandals, which I LOVE, are a free gift from Mangula at the Shop & Hop. They have a free 300 L credit there as well, so grab that reward while you’re there (it expires on Febuary 20th).
• The pose I am using is also a free group gift at Mirinae. They have a bunch of free group gifts and they are well worth checking out if you are in need of new poses like I always am!

Happy Valentine’s Eve, Fab Free!

Christmas Cutie

Happy Friday, FabFree! I am gearing up for a fun weekend here in Real Life but I had to pop in to show of this super cute little Christmas present from Safira.

I know we’ve shown y’all a bunch of cute things from under Safira’s Christmas tree so, of course, I had to jump on the bandwagon. The Group is a small fee of 50L to join but there are currently 11 gifts to be had. So that’s… **does math in her head making her eyes cross** 4 and a half Lindens per gift? That’s a bargain any way you slice it!

Top it off

This is the “Amara” top and sleeves. There were so many cute things but I just love this one. Amara comes with detachable sleeves for mixing and matching. There is also a matching skirt under the tree if you want a complete matching outfit.

Size Included

Belleza – Freya, Isis

Maitreya

SLink – Hourglass

Wrapped up in Ribbons

I’ve gone from Sunday afternoon to Sunday evening today. From casual to “that special night”. Isn’t that the beauty of Second Life? It can be any time any where with just the click of the mouse.

Midnight Lovely

I was visiting various Advents when I popped into one of my favorite designers to grab the free Advent gift for today. Then I saw this gorgeous little number on the group Midnight Mania board. I started clicking and was the lucky last one to lock down the board! This is the Mirana Mini from WellMade. The folder says it’s a mini dress but the silky texture and daring cut makes me think of lingerie.  Mirana comes with a HUD for six delicate colors perfect for that special evening with that special someone. I double checked and it’s still available on the Midnight Mania Board but these things change quickly so don’t delay.

Sizes Included

• Belleza – Freya, Isis, Venus
• Maitreya
• SLink – Hourglass, Physique
• TMP

Wrapped up for Christmas

My sassy new hair style is from No_Match and it’s half of the latest Group Gift. I say half because there are two totally different styles in the box. This one for the ladies, No Addiction, with the pigtails plus a “snow”, “ice” and “Ribbons” add-on. The other half is for the gents ( or girls who like pixi short haircuts) called No Deer, and it has stag antlers in it. I think I’ll twist Gabriel’s arm and make him show that one off in his next post. Both Hairstyles share an “Essentials” color HUD with a choice of twelve natural colors.

Little Foxes

Heyya FabFree, happy Tuesday. I hope the week is treating you right. Like a meme I saw… “We can do this week. It’s short and it ends with pie and shopping!”   Hey, add Hunting in Second Life and freebies and I’d say that’s perfect!

Foxy Foxy

I got my Hunting on with a few more items from the Holiday Feast Hunt. This is the ‘Odelia’ sweater from Prairie. Just a little hunting and one little Linden and you can add it to your closet too. I love the little fox, he just looks so happy to be here, doesn’t he?

Sizes Included

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

Curly Juli

I mentioned freebies and that’s my new hairstyle from No_Match. This is “No Salt” and it’s the current Group Gift.  I have recently been looking at Blender tutorials for making hair and dannnng… it’s hard. And curls are super hard. So the fact that No_Match is giving this curly curly style away for free to the Group members shows how generous this designer is!  Plus you get a HUD for twelve ombre colors.

Something Witchy

The time when the veil between this world and another more magical realm is at it’s thinnest is near. Something witchy approaches. Or perhaps it’s just me having a wicked fun time in this long stringy hairstyle from No.Match and this vampy black dress from Paper.Sparrow.  To find out more about these fantastic finds, keep reading, or scroll down to the end for full credits. Thanks for reading!

No.Match

This amazingly long hairstyle with the little hair-wrapped horns is a recent group gift at No.Match. It comes in 2 sizes with a fatpack of color choices. The No.Match group is just 50 linden to join.

Paper.Sparrow

I really like doing in-store hunts. They are fun, and generally don’t take terribly long to finish. Paper.Sparrow is having a Halloween themed hunt that you won’t want to miss. There are 7 prizes hidden around the shop at a mere 25 linden each, including the long black sleeveless dress I have on. This hunt is happening now through October 31st.

Dress Sizes Included: Maitreya, Slink (Hourglass, Physique), Belleza, TMP

Pippilotta Delicatessa Windowshade Mackrelmint Ephraim’s Daughter Longstocking

Hello Fab Free’rs, I’m feelin’ a little nostalgic today. The new group gift hairstyle by No Match with it’s braided pigtails sticking strait out made me giggle, but it also reminded me of some of the female literary characters from my youth that I so admired. Girls such as Anne Shirley, Caddie Woodlawn, Laura Ingalls, and of course Pippi Longstocking all held a special place in my little-girl heart. I remember them being brave, intelligent, imaginative girls who knew who they were and what they wanted. It felt good to be reminded of them today. So inspired, I paired the youthful hairstyle with the striped sweater-dress Fabulously Free in SL group gift by Sevyn East and ran with it. I hope you enjoy this fun look as much as I do.

The Hairstyle – This hairstyle by No Match is their current free group gift. Called No Socks, it really made me think of being little and barefoot in the springtime. It comes with a full fatpack of hair colors, and can be resized. Also included are system layer hair-bases, and a set of mesh head hair-base appliers (Omega, Lelutka, Catwa, TMP). You’ll need to wear the No Match group tag to get this gift. The current group join fee is 50 linden and there are quite a few past group gifts available on the second floor.

The Sweater Dress – I think it’s the stripes that made this off-the-shoulder sweater dress seem so youthful to me. It’s the current Fabulously Free in SL group gift by Sevyn East. I could also see it paired with some tall boots. It comes with a color/texture change hud that has 4 preset options, all of which are striped. To get your copy of this free gift just wear your Fab Free group tag and click the gift vendor at Sevyn East. If you’re not a Fabulously Free in SL group member yet, you can join for free.

Sizes Included: Belleza (Freya, Venus), Tonic (Curvy, Fine), Slink (Physique, Hourglass), Maitreya Lara

Juiciest Peach

Hello Fab Free’rs! I think the above quote from Dita Von Teese is a wise thing to rmember. She’s a personal Icon of mine whom I admire deeply. So forget the haters, be yourself, and by all means go shopping! I thought it was a fitting quote to share considering the cute little peach top from Crazy.Sexy that Pru has on. The top and the cute half up hairstyle from No Match are both current group gifts.

No Bunny – Cheekily named “No Bunny” this long unisex hairstyle is a new group gift at No Match. The style comes in a full fat-pack, with hair bases in appliers and system layers. There is also a male version of the style included. The No Match group has a one time join fee of 50 linden.

Peachy – This cute tube top is a current FREE group gift at Crazy.Sexy. The top comes in several mesh sizes. To get your copy you’ll need to join the “CS Tattoo & Furniture” group which is FREE to join.
Mesh Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, TMP, Belleza (Freya, Isis, Venus), Slink (Hourglass, Physique)
