Happy Friday everyone! I’m glad it’s the weekend, but I’m sparing a thought for our friends in Ukraine. One of my favourite designers, Osmia, has been away during this tumultuous time, but managed to get back inworld this week to put out a new release… and wouldn’t you know it, she also put out a gift. The generosity of SL designers often blows me away, but this one kinda really hit me… taking the time to put out a gift while you’re in a precarious situation? I mean… blimey.
Get to Osmia!
This lovely tee, with a sentiment I’m sure we can all get behind, is a freegift for everyone at Osmia. You’ll find it right beside their latest release, and you just have to click on the vendor and buy for 0L. I might suggest you also look into buying one of their really lovely creations while you’re there to support Hanna. Thank you so much Osmia, we really do wish you the best!

It is time for my usual Friday rallying cry…. thank heavens it’s the weekend! What, you didn’t think I’d go for the usual TGIF thing, did you? I much prefer “THITW”. You all know I must be just *a little* different at every turn! And speaking of turning, let’s turn some heads, shall we?
Over to Osmia
I love me some Osmia! This weekend, they’re participating in Fifty Linden Fridays with this sweet pair of shorts. I loooove the hearts. Of course, you can pick these bad boys up for just 50L. They’re set to go away at midnight tonight, but often FLFs hang around for a few days (if you’re lucky). Happily, there’s also a new group gift that matches just perfectly with the shorts – this crop top has ruching for days and will look so sweet and sexy paired with the shorts. The Osmia group is freeto join, making this lovely top completely free. You’ll find several other awesome group gifts there while you’re at it!

It’s Friday, FabFree! Oof, I feel like I harp on and on about what day of the week it is, but to be honest I need to remind myself. I woke up this morning blissfully in the knowledge that it was Saturday, only to have all my hopes dashed when I remembered that it was Friday instead and I still had to commute 5 metres to work. Anyway, my Friday was made much better by some awesome freebies…so let’s dive in!
Hair Fair Alert!
Yay! Hair Fair is open (Woohoo! Another MASSIVE event!) and it’s all about donations to Wigs for Kids. You’ll find many shops are donating their proceeds to this worthy cause, so do take a moment to help out if you can. You’ll also find that some booths have freegifts in them, so I was super excited to find this cute bob from Exile that you get in a full fatpack of colours – just buy for 0L, no group join required!
Happy Anniversary, Osmia!
Time for another birthday celebration – all the best goes out to one of my faves, Osmia! They’re celebrating their birthday with a big sale, and a new group gift. The Sadie skirt is brand new and comes in loads of colours and texures. I paired it with the Mira Base blouse which is an older gift, but I think they go together quite well. The Osmia group is freeto join, making this outfit completely free!

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’ve decided to take up a permanent job as the chick who rolls around in the flowers. I hear there are lots of opportunities for this position, including (but not limited to), allergy commercials and amateur archaeology (they need the ground flattened for the geophysics…duh). Oh, but don’t worry, I’ll still find you guys freebies! How could I not?
Amazin’ at Romazin
The latest group gift from Romazin is really awesome, but it was pretty hard to show off on a PG-13 blog. Please be impressed with my arm folding skills. If you’re looking for an eye catching top for salacious nights out, then this one is a must have! Conversely, I also tried it with a few tops and it did fit over some of the items I have, so it could be a nice addition to outfits you have in your inventory – worth a shot! It also comes with an HUD to change the colours of the gems and metals. The Romazin group is freeto join, making this sparkly number entirely free!

Top of the morning to you, FabFree! I hereby introduce the first FabFree Mesh Body Feature post. Today I will be sharing the Ultra Vixen Busty mesh body made by Ultra Vixen, one of our lovely FabFree designers. This body is one of the free mesh bodies that are available to learn about on the Fab Free Mesh Bodies and Heads listing. Please check out our listing to learn about more free mesh bodies and heads! Be sure to also check out the FabFree ’30 days’ list to find all the amazing offers new residents have access to when they join SL, as I am showing a freebie from that list today.
The Ultra Vixen Busty Mesh Body
Today I am wearing the Ultra Vixen Busty body by Ultra Vixen. This body is free for all Second Life residents under 31 days old, and it is a fully functional, BOM enabled mesh body. The freebie is the full package with all the latest updates for the body. Make sure that you tell any newbies about this offer in case they are in need of a mesh body!
The Ultra Vixen Busty body also includes a mesh head which is designed after the original classic head, but more detailed and fully Bento, allowing residents to retain their original “classic” look. You can also add different heads to the body. I added an older head gift by Akeruka Creations (no longer available) and I popped on a free choker which is a free gift for all at Osmia.
What can I wear with the Ultra Vixen Busty?
The freeUltra Vixen body wears custom mesh clothes that are sized for Ultra Vixen Busty. I decided to pair the body with the free jeans that are the current FabFree group gift at Ultra Vixen. I love the little FabFree logo on the butt! Go FabFree!
Sizes included
Ultra Vixen Busty
Ultra Vixen Perky
Ultra Vixen Flat Chested
The freebie body is also fully BOM, so bakes on mesh tops, undies, other clothing, skins, makeup, and tattoos can be worn with it as well. I threw on a lovely top by Mishmash Fusion, which I won for free on their lucky chairs, which are free to play without a group join. This lovely top is BOM/system layers so it can be worn on any bakes on mesh enabled mesh body or on system avatars as well! Mishmash Fusion has a huge selection of BOM and system clothing available on their lucky chairs, as well as mesh clothing items for men and women.
Thanks for stopping by!

It’s Valentine’s Day eve, and that means that you’ve got to sort out all your bits and bobs. By sort out your bits and bobs, I clearly mean settle on one of the bajillion gorgeous outfits that have been placed out as gifts, hunt items, discounts…my head is spinning with all the possibilities. I found some really lovely items that came together as a strong contender for my final option for V-Day, but knowing me…I’ll probably change 5 times in a night anyway!
Short and Sweet
There’s a new group gift at Osmia! I just love it when that happens! This pretty pink and heart-covered dress is just what I needed for a night of romance (there are also lots of other colours in the HUD if you are not a pink person). I particularly enjoy the little lace trim around the hem. The best part is that this pretty dress is completely free! Just join the Osmia group for free, then click on the vendor that’s just inside the front doors of the shop. There are some other wonderful gifts there too while you’re at it.

Shoe Addiction
ChicChica are being their usual generous selves with a new gift for all. No need to join a group to pick up these lovely shoes, you’ll find them for freeon the counter of the main store. There are also some other shoes in the box too (which you can see in the vendor pic below). The ones I’ve got on come in both silver and gold options and are sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink.
Last Stop
Time for another new group gift at Miss Chelsea! This delicate little necklace I’ve got on is a cheeky little nod if you’re fending off the advances of some unworthy suitor. The little gold bar in the middle says “not yours”, which made me giggle a little when I put it on. There are three other choices of message, as well as a metals HUD with a few different options. The Miss Chelsea group is 100L to Join, but you’ll find a very large pile of extremely high quality gifts on the main counter of the store, making the join super worth it.
Have you got your outfit sorted yet?

On the weekend there was snow everywhere. It fell for hours and hours, covering the world in a fluffy blanket, and turning the trees into lace overhead. It was gorgeous, magical and full of wonder. A few days later, and the world is a soggy mess. I’m recreating the magic in SL, because I need it for just a little longer!
House Proud
The gorgeous house behind me comes courtesy of Dragon Magick Wares! It’s their prize for the Candy Cane Hunt and will only set you back 3L and a bit of time searching! You’ll find all the info and the hint on the board when you land. You can’t beat a house for such an awesome price, so do make sure you head over there! Won’t it look wonderful all decorated for the Holidays?
Zooming Around
Yesterday, I told you all about the Black Friday Bazaar that is running until December 1st. You’ll find plenty of awesome freegifts, and this one by Zoom is just too nice not to show you. The shirt is gathered, perfectly fit and really quite versatile – wear it with jeans or a skirt and you’ll be ready for anything! To get it, head on over to the Black Friday Bazaar and join the freegroup to access all the gifts.

Ok, that’s it…I’m officially getting into the spirit of winter, and possibly even the Holiday Season. I always try to wait until the end of November, at the very least, but it seems like I could totally use something sparkly, happy and celebratory this year. I’m sure a massive pile of gifts will also make you feel jolly!

Oh my Stars, FabFree! have you been to UBER yet? SO.MANY.GIFTS! I actually had a hard time deciding which cute thing to show off. I know, I know it’s a great problem to have. Then I opened the gifts from Mimikri and Osmia and I knew what I was blogging. I mean, how could I resist a pink bikini with studs???
Itsy Bitsy
Hooleee Crow! Would you look at this itsy bitsy bikini? Pink and tiny and studs, be still my heart. This is the ‘Celeste Bikini’ from Mimikri and it’s free at Uber. I don’t have a whole lot of items from Mimikri in my closet but man, I gotta change that. This little whisper of a swim suit is so perfectly done. Every detail is spot on and I am in love. Plus… it’s free!

Another super cute freegift at Uber comes from Osmia. This ‘Aria Bucket Hat’ (My people always called this style a ‘boonie hat’) comes with a HUD for choices of cute colors. Doesn’t this pink look like it was just made for the bikini?! Again, it’s really well done and I love it to pieces!
UBER runs until September 22 which is coming faster than ya think, so get over there and load up!
