It’s So Delicious

It's So DeliciousAlright, real talk. It’s getting on towards the end of February. We’re over a month and a half removed from new year’s resolutions. Surely it’s an appropriate time to joke about failed resolutions? Because that’s exactly what this top feels like to me and I’m for it.

Fitness

My tank top says “I’m into fitness, fit’ness taco in my mouth.” Nevermind that it also features a picture of a cheeseburger. That is not important. Who doesn’t love a good fitness pun? Plus it made me sing that Fergie song in my head the whole time I was working on this post, and who doesn’t love that? But I digress. What matters is that you can get it as one of the new free group gifts at Pink Cream Pie. This is the January gift and the February gift is out also. The Pink Cream Pie group is 314L to join.

Sizes:

  • Gen X Classic
  • Gen X Curvy
  • Maitreya
  • Maitreya Petite
  • Legacy
  • Reborn

 

Besides that, yes I’m wearing the hair that Stealthic has out for today’s Fifty Linden Friday. Yes, Aline showed it yesterday. Don’t miss out, go get it today for 50L!

Hit The Dab

Hit The DabHello out there. Hopefully you, like me, are lazing your way through the week between Christmas and New Years’. Time spent however you want it to be, sometimes industrious and other times downright wasteful. And of course spent on favorite hobbies too, like sniffing out freebies and deals!

Dollar Pie

Pink Cream Pie is mentioned time and time again here on FabFree, because the group is awesome and loaded with perks. But what if you’re not in the group? Well, then this is the post for you, my friend. Pink Cream Pie has a dozen or so really nice items out there on SL Marketplace for only 1L each! I was a little bit conflicted about which one to actually show you but I mean come on, a hoodie of a dabbing unicorn with a sombrero and maraca? There really was no other choice. You can find it on the marketplace here, and you can see all of the 1L items excluding demos here. The hoodie comes in sizes for Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya and is a linden very well spent.

One more note on these marketplace dollarbies – from some light inventory searching most of these items appear to not be past group gifts, so people who are in the group will want to check it out as well. Dollar pie for everyone!

Free Skinnery

I’m rounding out my look with the latest free group gift skin from The Skinnery. It’s part of the illustrious Holiday Special event, which I’ve named “Lelutka & Friends” in my head. Whatever you call it, you can read the details here when Aline first broke the news on FabFree and it’s definitely one not to missed.

The Skinnery‘s free gift is this lovely Eve skin in a long list of skin tones, with brow and no brow versions of each. To get it you’ll need to join The Skinnery group, which is currently free to join. This is a paid group that I assume will go back to having a fee when the event ends after December 30th. You’ll find a whole bunch of other free group gifts in the store as well and in my opinion the group is worth staying to see what others are added.

Butterfly Effect

wonderland

Hey Fab Fam!

I just *had* to bring you the latest group gift from one of my favorite stores, Pink Cream Pie.  I love the butterflies and the styling of this and as we head into spring, we all need to find those fresh cute outfits to wear!  I think you will want to add this one to your closet! (ahem… “inventory”.)

This sexy little number is a free group gift as I said from Pink Cream Pie, the group costs 314L to join, but you get a wall of past gifts (a lot!), along with lucky boards and a 100L bonus credit each month.  So absolutely worth the lindens!  She takes good care of her VIPs!  This outfit fits:

  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Petite
  • Reborn

Now, I have a chocolate bunny that is calling my name, so I must dash!

Pink Cream Pie January GG

Hey Fabbies!

‘Tis just me again with more group gift finds.  I can’t say enough how much I *love* Pink Cream Pie.  She just feeds into my obsessions like pink… and unicorns!  So, how can a girl resist?!

However today I have neither pink, nor unicorns to show you (maybe next time, hm?), but I do have this free adorbs sparkly dress.  The Pink Cream Pie group is 314L to join and there are a load of group gifts up for your perusal.  This just happens to be the newest one.  It comes with a limited HUD (can change color of straps and undies) and it fits:

  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Petite
  • Reborn

My cute hair is a free gift from No.Match on the Cosmopolitan Christmas tree, which is free but you have to join the Cosmo group, which is also free.  It is still up with loads of gifties as of this post, but I don’t know how long it will be up, so I would hurry on this one if I were you!

I know this is painfully short….  I haven’t had my quota of caffeine for the day yet!  Stay warm gang!!!  Only another 75 days until Spring!

Another Year Over, A New Ones Just Begun…

nearly new years

Hey Faboos!

I can’t believe that another year has gone by.  And covid is still as prevalent as it was when it started.  Ugh.  I hope 2022 will be the year we all say enough already and do whatever has to be done to take our lives back from this virus!

I know things will never be the same as they were pre-covid, but maybe it has brought some positive into our lives too.  Like appreciating day to day things we took for granted, friends, family, hugs, shopping!  Even appreciating just getting up in the morning and feeling *good*.  Perhaps it came to teach us to shift our perspective and be grateful for all the little wonderful things, as simple as waking up to a new day (some people don’t, and one day, you won’t either).

It makes me think of one of my favorite movies Dead Poets Society.  Mr. Keating (Robin Williams) tells his class to seize the day, make your life extraordinary while you can.  The powerful play goes on and YOU get to contribute a verse.  What will your verse be?  Let 2022 be the year we all live in state of gratitude, seizing the day with those we love and contributing our powerful verse.  What legacy do you hope your life will create?

Where was I?

I got a bit sidetracked there.  The turning of a new year always makes my thoughts get deeper than they normally are (and that’s saying something!!!).

I’m getting ready for the new year and I’m doing it in style!  This sexy little number is the latest free group gift from Pink Cream Pie.  It has several colors to choose from and also a sheer option.  The group is 314 to join and there is an entire wall of group gifts for your shopping pleasure.  This one fits:

  • Legacy
  • Maitreya & Petite
  • Reborn

My hair, which you have seen all over the Fab Free Blog by now, thanks to Aline & Jacx.  Now you get to see it in my signature blonde, this is of course the new free group gift from Truth.  Their VIP group is 350L to join and the hair is in the recent notices.

A New Year Right Around the Corner

I’ve also got some fun New Year’s Deco for you.  My 2022 numbers are the final Advent Day from Simply Shelby.  In fact the final advent day gives you an entire New Year’s Eve Prep Kit that I think is pretty darn nifty!  Even though the advent is past, you can still grab them all for only 10L.  As of this posting they are all still available.

I also headed over to the Okinawa Holiday Event where they are lots of free gifts to grab, with no group needed.  I found this adorable hair flower Free by Ayame and I absolutely love having my own New Year’s Ball which is 75L at Ever Green.  Really it is made that you wear it and you can walk around on it, which is lots of fun, but for the photo I needed to stand still, so.  But I love it for decor, it turns and it changes all sorts of beautiful iridescent-y colors!  Really gorgeous!

Have a Hap-Hap-Happy New Year! (Rudolph’s Shiny New Year Song)

All-Nighter

All-Nighter

I just couldn’t put the book I was reading down. Blue had gone to bed hours ago, at what anyone would have considered a late hour. I had replied that I too would call it a night after just a moment longer. One more page, a chapter, just a bit more.  A moment longer turned into hours later, the once blazing fire in the fireplace now glowing red embers, and the morning sun was hinting over the horizon.

It didn’t help the situation that I had the cozy comfort of the oversized arm chair and a fuzzy warm blanket to keep me content and steadily reading my book. Come to think of it the glass of wine probably contributed to my unintentional all-nighter as well. The chair with props, and table with wine and decadent chocolates are both part of the Monster Mash hunt prize at Kitty Creations. There are several individual and couples poses, many with fun props in this set. You can hunt it down for 1 linden at Kitty Creations. If you’re not in a hunting sort of mood, you can also purchase the set for 25 linden for the duration of the hunt.

Monster Mash Hunt Hints & Locationshttps://funwithhunts.blogspot.com/2020/10/monster-mash-hints-slurls.html

With my quite cozy spot near the fire, and my equally comfortable attire I was left with little ability to resist the allure of finishing my novel. This cute as heck tank top is a free Lucky Letter board prize at Pink Cream Pie. Not only is the witchy graphic cute, with the pastel colors versus the usual dark colors of the season, it references a favorite Halloween movie of mine, Hocus Pocus.  To participate in the Pink Cream Pie Lucky Boards (there are 3 new prizes) you’ll need the group tag. The Pink Cream Pie group has a join fee of 314 linden. There are quite a few group gifts available as well, you’ll find the boards and the group gifts on the second floor.

Let’s Get Spooky!

Let's Get Spooky

Hello Fab Free! This is absolutely my favorite time of year. This is when I can be as spooky as I want to, and no one seems to mind. That said, I think my level of excitement over the Halloween Shop & Hop events might have been the most excitement I’ve felt about an event all year. With several sims full of festive Halloween goodness and freebies, I can’t imagine not being excited. That said, I have several of the free Halloween Shop & Hop event gifts to share with you. I sincerely hope you love them, I do.

As Aline mentioned in her recent post “The Magic Words” there are 8 total Halloween Shop & Hop sims. Most (if not all) of the participating shops have a free gift, with no group required. Some gifts will require you to pay 1 linden,  however you will be instantly refunded. For this look I picked up the free gifts from Pink Cream Pie, #Adored, The Annex, On a Lark, and ChicChica. As usual you can keep reading for details about each free gift, or scroll to the end for full credits and links.

Pink Cream Pie

My thoroughly blood splattered top is the free Halloween Shop & Hop gift by Pink Cream Pie. This gift comes with a color change hud that has several solid colored tees all with generous amounts of blood splatter.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Maitreya Lara Petite, MeshBody Legacy

#Adored

The free Halloween Shop & Hop gift by #Adored is the cutest little brow tattoo. It reads “Spooky” with the option of wearing it on the right or the left side, in cursive or bold lettering, each with the choice of bold or faded styles. This tattoo comes in tint-able BOM layers only, which gives the added option of having the tattoo in color.

The Annex

I particularly like this fun devil horns headband by The Annex because it glows like neon. It comes in several color choices, so you can wear this fun accessory with multiple outfits. They are also of course free at the Halloween Shop & Hop Event.

On a Lark

I think there’s a rule that says you can’t have Halloween without a black and red manicure. Okay, maybe not, but in my world these bento nails by On a Lark are a must this season. On a Lark has 2 darkly pretty manicure sets as free gifts at the Halloween Shop & Hop event. The ones I am wearing are part of the “Halloween” set that has 4 black and red variations in the set.

Sizes Included: Maitreya, Slink

ChicChica

Finally, my creepy cocktail is part of the free Halloween Shop & Hop gift by ChicChica. The gift includes two fantastically macabre martinis. Also, each of the Halloween themed  drinks has a bento hold pose. Have fun Fab Free!

The Cutest Thing You’ve Ever Seen

Coming soon to Fab Free

Hey Fab Free! I have a really cute hunt and news about a free group join at Pink Cream Pie to share with you today. I will also be talking about two fabulous new group gifts at EscalateD.

Pink Cream Pie Free VIP Group Join

To start out, Pink Cream Pie ‘s VIP group is currently free to join for a limited time. This free join has been available for over a week, so make sure that you go grab this group ASAP! Included in the VIP group is access to all of the Pink Cream Pie past gifts. There are three years’ worth of past gifts upstairs (2017-2019), plus all the gifts from 2020. In addition to the group gifts, you can head over to the mystery gift giver at the front of the store and earn some prizes- even some free store credit. The gifts are super high quality and mega cute, so make sure you steal this great group while you can. Having the VIP group will also help you get the hunt items at their pride hunt discounted 100% in store credit!

PCP Pride Hunt

Pink Cream Pie is  having a pride hunt at their store until the end of June. You are looking for four little rainbow Pie guys (pictured in the vendor image below) hidden in the store, and inside each hunt object will be a hoodie, a top, leggings and sneakers. Each item is a special edition pride fatpack which comes in a variety of patterns and textures. Trust me, this is the cutest outfit ever when you put it all together. Each hunt prize cost 99L a piece,  but you will get 100% discount in store credit for every hunt item you purchase- as long as you have your Pink Cream Pie tag active as you purchase the hunt objects. Alternatively, you can purchase hunt items with the store credit you win from the mystery giver.

Have fun finding this cute outfit, Fab Free!

Got Milk?

FabFree Post: Got Milk

Milk it does a body good!

Pink Cream Pie & Milk, what more can a girl ask for? That sounds like an amazing dream to me!! Adventuring out I saw this adorable Tex Mex Swimsuit marked as their group gift and needed to snag it! I also stalked the shop for a bit and stumbled upon a Group Mystery Gift Giver, so naturally, I clicked it (I like buttons!!) and was gifted a L$250 Gift Card to Pink Cream Pie. Now, I must say its a random item giver so there is no way to say what it is you will get, but oh man this was the coolest thing I’ve seen lately.

Fits

  • Maitreya
  • Freya
  • Legacy

With my new swimsuit group gift & my gift card in hand, I skipped home happily to plan out what to do with it. So I took an adventure over to the Cruel Summer Hunt, which Aline posted HERE which is totally tubularly 80s themed gear and deco. I knew that the backdrop you see here by The Bearded Guy was needed and I had no other option but to make it mine. So I put on my hunting boots and got out there to find a sexy 80’s Miami Vice type setup. My jaw hit the floor and I started scanning around for the hunt items on my to get list.
