Not Your Babe

The word Babe…  Offensive or Not?

What is it about the word “babe” that offends so many?  I don’t think it’s the actual word, because I can think of instances that “babe” was actually said in endearing ways and gave me those mushy gushy feelings.  I think it’s rather the situation of someone being too familiar than they should that is offensive.  They could have used any old pet name word and gotten the same reaction, but it just happened to be babe that came out.  Using the word babe in regards to someone is definitely a risky choice!  I guess the moral of the story is here to be absolutely certain he or she really is your babe before you say it lol.  Anyways…  just a little something that roamed my wandering mind when I came across this T-Shirt as a free group gift yesterday.

Did You Say Free Group Gift?

Yes, I did say free group gift!  Members of the Miss Chelsea inworld group can head down to the reception desk and pick up the new group gift which just happens to be the Judi Top with “Not Your Babe” across the front of it. It comes in several mesh body fits as listed below and includes a texture change HUD that allowed for four different colours.  The vendor ad shows two – so I’m including that here too.

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Isis & Freya

The Miss Chelsea group is 100L to join, but on the desk you’ll find several past group gifts still available, many of which shown here on FabFree!

• Silver Lady
• Soap Is A Slippery Business
• Paparazzi

Short Cut

The free gifts don’t stop there!  These sweet Sporty Shorts by Pixicat come in two love themed prints and are FREE at The Shop Your Heart Out Event!

A Moment to Reflect

Hello, fab readers! So much is going on in the world right now that I needed a moment to sit and reflect. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you who are in the path of Hurricane Irma right now, and to those of you who are recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Harvey. I have family in Florida, so we are anxiously waiting and watching the storm’s progress.

A new group and a new gift

My adorable shirt is the latest group gift from Fashionably Dead. The Cropped Collar Tank is sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink mesh bodies, and includes a HUD with a fatpack of 4 different patterns for each. I’m wearing the one on the bottom right, which is actually quite a bit bluer than it appears in the HUD.

Fashionably Dead has a new in-world group which is currently free to join but will cost 100L after September 25th. They also have a new mainstore on the Lula sim, so be sure to update your landmarks!

Stay safe out there! ❤

Good morning Fabulouses, and happy July 4th to those of you celebrating.  I think I might sit on the deck this afternoon and have a beer, myself so I can celebrate with you.  Oh, who are we kidding?  I’ll use about any excuse to have beer on a hot day!

I came across this new blue checked wrap top as a free group gift at COCO and it is perfect for a day like today, or.. any day really!  It’s so cute, that I have been wearing it for almost three days now lol.  The group is free to join, and you can find this in the VIP section with a whole wall full of other group gifts.  Most of which have probably been blogged on FabFree at one time or another.

Treats For You Too!

Too much Halloween candy again…

Good evening FabFree! I hope that you have enjoyed Halloween 🙂 both inworld and in the real world too!  It’s now after 10pm here and all of our trick or treaters have gone in for the night.  As usual I bought way too much candy!  Whatever will I do with it?  I am unable to share it with you unfortunately for my jeans, but I can share some news about a couple of fabulous inworld treats you might like even better!

Inworld Treats:

• At Lara Hurley you can find the Blaire Catwa Applier I am displaying on my Candy mesh head today as a free group gift!  This group is free to join and the applier comes with light brown and dark brown brows.  This skin would be great as an every day skin or could be worn all glammed up too.  The milky skin tone is lovely and I adore the shimmery plum lips!  I believe it is meant to go on the Dyana mesh head, however I quite like it on Candy, and I am sure it would be nice on others as well.  You just have to try them out!
• Belle Epoque is participating in a free Halloween Hunt and once you find just the right pumpkin (yes… there are plenty of decoys!) inshop, you can buy it for 0L and you will have the pretty rose crown I am wearing today.  Good luck!  I assume this will be ending soon as it is a Halloween Hunt, so chop chop!

Free Spoopy Hugs At Stories & Co. by Flowey!

KARMA?

Well Fabulouses… I am not sure what karmic offence I have acted out this week to deserve such a punishment, but I have ironically been grounded to the sky in a studio for photo taking until I can resolve some snapshot/CRASH issues with my viewer.  I spent a couple of days trying different things (and thank you to those that have been offering advice!), and finally decided…  I have work to do!  There are so  many things to show you, so I am setting aside my usual routine of visiting sims and setting up myself in a scene for now to get my share of  the fresh freebie news up here on the blog!

Free spoopy hugs at Stories & Co. by Flowey!

I did need a hug today, so it was thankful that I came across a free gift by Stories & Co. by Flowey called Lisbeth Tee Spoopy Hug!  You can find this adorable Halloween gift near the group gifts, however you are not required to join the group for this offer.  It is simply priced at 0L.  I imagine this sweet gift will be gone when Halloween is, so make sure you boo…gie down there for your copy fast!

Do you know what “spoopy” is?

LOL, because I thought it was a typo.  I got to thinking that maybe I was just old and it was a term I just haven’t heard of yet.  I referenced Urbandictionary for the term “spoopy” just to see, and it turns out…  spoopy is a thing!  I will probably spend all day tomorrow using the term accidentally incorrectly.

Spoopy:  Something that is funny and spooky at the same time.

“I saw a ghost fall down the stairs today, it was so spoopy.”

Sizes included in the Lisbeth Tee Spoopy Hug are:

• Maitreya: Lara
• Maitreya: Lara Flat
• Slink: Physique
• Slink: Hourglass

Disenchanted

Hello Fabulous Readers!  It appears I am not a very good witch as one once said… because the dead is still dead and my cat has two heads!

I suppose I should just park my broom and stick to what I know I am good at… finding fabulous freebies in Second Life.  It’s a shame because I really do dig the hats!  Well..  actually it was free – so let’s talk about that!  You might want to grab a brew and sit for a spell, because I have a lot to share today!

I did a little 7Seas Fishing at Sn@tch yesterday as they have just put out a new 22 piece Coven Outfit in their pond that includes clothing items, shoes and accessories too.  The whole set is really cute, but I am wearing just a couple of the pieces today:  The Claire Sweater and the Witch Hat!  I used the Omega applier for the top, but there are system layers available for those not able to use Omega.  You will be able to fish for this set for another couple of weeks!

My Melena Heels are a free group gift at Phedora and they include a texture change HUD with a ton of different colour options.  These shoes are compatible with Belleza, Maitreya and Slink mesh bodies and make for terrific basic heels that match with everything.  The group is 300L to join, however there are several group gifts to pick up once you do that will make it well worth the fee!

Last, but certainly not least…  I have news about my hair too.  This is Pr!tty’s Yeemi hairstyle under my hat and it is available as a free Lakewood Haven Hunt prize in a full fatpack of colours!  This news might seem familiar to you if you are an avid FabFree reader, and that is because I shared another one of the prizes with you yesterday;) [HERE].  As I mentioned yesterday, this hunt runs until October 10th and all 10 prizes are worth searching for in my books!  Happy hunting 🙂

Whispering Secrets

Hello Fab Free’rs, thanks for stopping by! Today’s post is something fun and playful, at least I think so. Sanarae is celebrating an anniversary, and the shoppers are benefiting. Almost every vendor has a FREE gift to all Sanarae group members. While there are a ton of lovely gifts, the gift from Pixicat happens to be my personal favorite. Additionally I came across the cutest gacha by Katatonik. This adorably creepy pet makes for the perfect little friend to whisper all your secrets to.
It’s no secret I’m excited about the month of October being so near. There’s a meme floating around the Internet that says something about it being Halloween Season rather than Football Season. I definitely agree with that sentiment. The Sanarae gift from Pixicat is this cute little short sleeved bat print top with the orange leather skirt. The top and skirt can be worn separately as well as together. This FREE gift comes in standard mesh sizes, as well as a few body specific sizes. There isn’t anything I don’t love about this cute outfit. It’s perfect for Halloween Season! All you need to do to get this amazing gift is join the Sanarae group. The group is FREE to join.

Now let’s talk about the octopus kitty floating over Pru’s shoulder. This half octopus half kitty follower pet is just the right mix of cute and creepy. This gacha creature by Katatonik is equipped with resize scripts so you can make her just about whatever size you like. Once you’re  happy with her, the touch menu will also allow you to remove the scripts. There are several versions of the Tendril Kitty from Katatonik at Sanarae, and at 50 lindens per play, it was a gacha I just couldn’t pass up. I may even need to go back to Sanarae and collect a few of the others, they are just that cute! lol

She’s So Cold

Hey there FabFree! It’s f f f f reeeezing in my part of the RL world today, so I came inworld searching for a jacket and some coffee to warm up!

I found the Milla Jacket at Crystal Drops set as a free group gift to the Third Life inworld group.  There is a 5L fee to join if you are not already a member, but luckily I was so it was just free to me!  The shirt and jacket are one piece so there will be no digging through your inventory to find a short that doesn’t stick through it.  We all know how frustrating that can be!  In the folder you will find mesh sizes XXS – L with a co-ordinating alpha layer.

Hmm.. I appear to be still freezing.  Perhaps I should have done this all in RL first!

Lucia

Hi there FabFree! Before I head off for the night, I wanted to pop by and let you know about a free Catwa Skin Applier that is available on the Marketplace!  For those of you with a Catwa Mesh Head, Pumec is offering their Lucia skin priced at 0L.  I am not sure how long this offer will be valid, but it’s quite pretty – so pick it up before it’s too late.

I am wearing the free PUMEC Lucia Gift Skin on my Catwa Candy Head, although it will work on any Catwa Head.  In the folder you will find the Catwa Head Applier with three versions of eyebrows (brown, black, none), matching body appliers for Slink, Maitreya and Belleza as well as Freckle option and a HUD for mesh body parts.  A system skin is even included for those still using the basic body.
