In the age of social distancing, I couldn’t agree more with the sentiment that this shirt is pushing! Though honestly, I have never been more thankful for the existence of Second Life since March 2020, where I can hang out with friends, go to parties, and have adventures all from the safety of my own home. But, still! Sometimes one just needs to have a private party!
Another One!
You may have noticed that events with gifts are popping up all over the place at this time of year, and I am the very last person to complain about the generosity and inventiveness of designers! Today we’re celebrating The 4 Seasons Event’s 1st anniversary, and in true SL style, there’s a freegift at every booth. Just join the free4 Seasons group, and click on the little boxes. Here’s what I’m showing off:
FREEtop by The Bold Llama sized for Freya, Isis, Venus, Ebody, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and XS-XL with an alpha layer

Here’s the story. I was on my way to a party that happened to be in the middle of a forest. And then the cabbie let me out in what was clearly the wrong spot, and here I am, not dressed for the weather again in an icy, albeit very pretty locale. Now if only I could get some reception on my phone I might make my way to the eggnog that has my name written all over it.
Bonfire of the Vanities
To be honest, I really really really just wanted to take a picture at The Forest sim, because every year it’s my favourite place to take photos during the holidays. The twinkling lights, the deep blue skies, the towering trees… oof, it gets me right in the chimichangas every time. Anywhos, This month’s round of Vanity has some fun gifts for members of their freeto join group! You’ll find a swirly Christmas tree right in the middle of the room with gifts on it, and there are some really nice ones. Here’s what I grabbed:
FREEDress by Beyond sized for Hourglass, Legacy and Maitreya
FREE Pose by ATP with 4 more in the box
FREEHeadband by Oops, comes with an HUD to change the colour of the band and the roses
Dress – Beyond Aitana (Free Gift at Vanity/Group is Free to Join) Headband – Oops Cimeries Headband (Free Gift at Vanity/Group is Free to Join)
Phone – Foxcity Phone
Okay. I usually don’t go for the tired old elf stereotypes. You know, dancing in the forest. Frolicking with magical creatures. But when the unicorns want to play… What are you gonna do?
Magical
We Love Role Play is celebrating it’s sixth birthday this May and many of the venders have put out gifts for us. The gifts range from 10L to absolutely free. Some of the free gifts will need you to join the We Love Role Play group but that’s free as well. My lovely tunic dress is “Valena in Sable” from Faida and it’s one of those free group gifts.
Sizes Included
Maitreya
Maitreya for curvier shapes
Free Spirit
My frisky pose is also a freegift at We Love Role Play from Stardust. “Luanna” is a full Bento pose and the gift comes with both the pose and a pose ball. Stardust is a New-To-Me designer but I’m rather impressed with what I’ve seen.

Oh hey there Fab Free! The third day of Christmas is treating me fairly well. I’ve got myself some sweet lingerie to hang out in, and the kettle is on as I prepare a nice cuppa. I also may or may not be knee-deep in chocolate wrappers, but that’s as it should be! Now where did I put my French Hens?
A Trip to Dubai
I headed over to the Dubai event and found all sorts of lovely goodies under the Christmas Tree! Loads of sweet finds were there (which I picked up with no group join required, and completely FREE!). Here’s what I’m showing off today:

Hello hello Fab Free’rs! It’s been one of those days IRL and I’m thankful that I have my SL to escape to! I’m also super glad you’re here and I get to share some cool Goth Garage Sale Hunt finds with you. This hunt definitely caters to the gothic, wicked, and witchy among us (as the name would suggest). Pru is living out one of my goth/rockabilly fashion fantasies with this look. The GGS Hunt is a 5 linden hunt, meaning each prize is 5 linden. This hunt is taking place at the Goth Garage Sale event. The item you’ll be hunting for is a little black kitty with glowing yellow eyes. Some of the participating vendors have hidden their hunt item within their store booth. Some vendors also have their hunt item hidden on the even grounds near their booth. It was my experience that most items were “hidden in plain sight.” So keep an eye out for those glowing yellow eyes!
The Hair – I think this hairstyle from EscalateD is so fun. It’s a little bit pin-up, a little bit punk-rock, and a whole lot of fun! It is EscalateD’s 5 linden Goth Garage Sale Hunt prize. The style comes with a cool dip dye hud with dark hair that has several brightly colored “dips.” There is also a color change hud for the hair bow.
The Necklace – The Little Bat has this beautiful necklace for their Goth Garage Sale Hunt prize. Purchase their hunt prize and you will receive the neck;ace and a texture/color change hud. The hud has 14 gemstone colors to choose from. The necklace also has resize scripts.
The Septum Piercing – This simple captive bead nose ring is one of two Goth Garage Sale Hunt prizes from Astara. This silver version is just 5 linden and it includes a color change hud for the captive bead. The other Goth Garage Sale Hunt prize from Astara is the same piercing in gold.
The Pillows – These cute pillows are the OOPS Goth Garage Sale Hunt prize. For just 5 linden you get a set of unscripted decorative pillows, and a hold-able version. The hold-able version has a texture change hud so you can choose which version of the pillow you want. The decorative pillows can be manually sized.
The Dress – The mid-thigh length dress Pru is wearing is the Goth Garage Sale Hunt prize by WitchCraft. The dress includes a color/texture change hud with 3 different variations of this geometric galaxy print. This 5L prize comes in sizes to fit Maitreya Lara, Slink Physique, Slink Hourglass, and eBody.
The Nails – The intentionally chippy manicure Pru has is from the Goth Garage Sale Hunt prize by Dark Passions. This “Koffin” nails hud gives you 6 vampy pastel polish shades in a chipped or solid option. The appliers will work for fingernails as well as toenails. There is a Slink applier, a Maitreya applier, and an Omega applier included.
Here are the details, enjoy!
Hair – .EscalateD. Mona – Special Dip-Dye Mini – 5L GGS Hunt prize @Goth Garage Sale
Hello Fab Free’rs! Ignore the expression on Pru’s face, I’m happy you’re here! I initially thought the expression looked kinda cool with this sassy group gift dress from OOPS. After closer inspection, I think the expression paired with this pose and hair makes it look like Pru is really disgusted with her braid. Hahaha Oh well! Speaking of group gifts, these curved horns are a group gift from Psycho Barbie. Keep reading and I’ll give you all the info about these awesome group gifts.
The Horns – It’s never been a secret, I love horns. These horns come in classic black and can be resized via touch menu. One of the things I like about these group gift horns from Psycho Barbie is that they are individually placed. What I mean is, there’s a right horn and a left horn, they can be positioned and resized individually. To get yours head over to Psycho Barbie and join the in world group. there is a one time join fee of 50 lindens. You’ll find this gift on a shelf with several other previous group gifts.
The Dress – I like that this provocative dress is a little bit goth and a little bit punk rock. It is a recent group gift at OOPS. With this gift you’ll get the dress in 2 versions, one with a plaid skirt (shown), and a second one with a black skirt that has little white crosses. Both dresses say “Born Sinner” at the waist. They also come in several mesh sizes. The OOPS group has a one time join fee of just 10 linden and there is more than one group gift currently available. Mesh Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Slink (Hourglass, Physique), Tonic (Curvy, Fine)
I put a spell on you, and now you’re mine. Okay, maybe not! There’s really no witchcraft needed for this witchy alternative look. Just a few group gifts are all you need, so keep reading for the details on how to get them.
Free Hair
This wild hairstyle is the most recent Fabulously Free in SL group gift by Adoness. It’s a fun side-swept style comes in 3 colors, a vibrant orange, a deep green, and the rich burgundy color shown. Also included in the gift are 3 matching system layer hair bases. I used the default Catwa hair base. To get your copy of this FREE gift, just wear your Fabulously Free in SL group tag and head over to Adoness. Then click the group gift vendor behind the counter. If you’re not already a Fab Free group member, not to worry, the group is FREE to join.
Floating Skulls
I’ve always liked the theme of “good and evil” which is one reason I picked up these floating skulls from Evermore. They are a current group gift and the Evermore group is just 50 linden to join. There are two versions of these precariously floating skulls included in this fun group gift. The set shown has one plain black skull, and one plain white skull. The second set of skulls are also black and white but have a glowing emblem on their foreheads. I really think they are such a cool and sinister accessory.
I Put a Spell on You
Finally this cute little tank top is a current group gift available at OOPS. I love the slightly macabre imagery and the phrase reminds me of several things I love about Halloween. This is also the sort of top I’d wear year-round, not just during the Halloween season. The OOPS group is just 10 linden to join, and there are several group gifts available at this time, including the sweaters I previously blogged in my “Creepy and Cute” post.
Hello hello Fab Free’rs! I don’t know about you, but I’m definitely one of those people who thinks of Halloween as being more of a season than a single day. I’m in a spooky festive mood already this year. I think these cute sweater dresses from OOPS are a fun way to ease into the season. They come together as a FREE group gift for all OOPS group members. I really like the off the shoulder style, however I think the term dress is relative in this case. My body shape would definitely not allow me to wear this sweater as a dress! The OOPS group has a one time join fee of 10 linden and there are several previous group gifts still available.
Next up this three ring septum piercing is a FREE group gift from Boutique 187. I could wear this piercing every day, no matter if my outfit was dressy or casual. This group gift at Boutique 187 comes with a color change hud that lets you choose between 6 colors and you can change each ring separately. The Boutique 187 group has a one time join fee of 187 linden. Along with this piercing gift, there are several past gifts still available.
