Oubliette Halloween Hunt

Welcome back to the blog Fab Free’rs! I have to say autumn is the one time of year that I am most excited about hunts in Second Life. I love all things fall or Halloween related. Maybe it’s because I was born this time of year, both in real life and in Second Life. You might laugh at me for this, but no joke, I started decorating my house for Halloween the second week in September. Haha Needless to say, I was super excited to hear about the Halloween Hunt at Oubliette.

In celebration of the season Oubliette is having a Halloween Hunt with 10 total hunt prizes hidden in the Oubliette shop and the grounds surrounding. There are 8 home furniture and decor items, and 2 lounge-wear items. Each hunt prize is just 10 lindens. There are no group tags required for this hunt, everyone can participate. There is a playful occult-ish theme to these hunt items. If you’re unfamiliar with Oubliette, the style is sometimes a tad macabre and always beautiful. Every one of the decor or furniture items in the above photo is included in this hunt from the darkly whimsical embroidery to the sleeping kitty on the rug. The black and purple Victorian era inspired chair has a few male and female sit poses, the one in the photo however is from Pru’s animation override-r.

Along with the lovely home goods, this beautiful maxi style off-the-shoulder dress and matching slippers are part of the Oubliette Home Halloween Hunt. There is something a little bit pagan and a little bit bohemian about this comfy lounge-wear. Wearing these items makes me wanna curl up with a good book and a warm mug of coffee, thankfully the coffee and books are part of the Oubliette hunt too! Both clothing items come in several sizes for easy fitting. These fun Halloween themed items will be available for hunting at Oubliette through the entire month of October. You’ll be looking for little poison bottles, and don’t forget to hunt around the grounds outside the Oubliette store as well, specifically the cemetery. Happy Hunting Fab Free!

It’s a Red Sweater Day

Today was definitely a big cozy sweater day for me. I wanted nothing more than to curl up on my sofa, have some coffee or maybe some warm tea and watch movies… all day. This sweater from BlackRose is exactly the type of sweater I envision for these sort of days. What better hairstyle than this one by Runaway to go with an over-sized sweater?! I love bun hairstyles because I think they have the effect of “look how cute my hair is” without much effort.

To get this red knit sweater by BlackRose for FREE, wear your Fabulously Free in SL group tag and head over to the BlackRose main store. Once inside, you’ll see a little gift table on the wall to the left. While wearing your Fab Free group tag, click the little gift bag on the shelf and your FREE gift will be delivered to you. This baggy, cowl necked sweater comes in standard mesh sizes.

To complete the look, you’ll need this FREE hairstyle from Runaway as well. You can pick up this FREE gift at the current round of Hairology. As it’s been mentioned before, Hairology is celebrating their first anniversary. The event is a year old, and you’ll find several gifts that are freebies and dollarbies. Included with this gift hairstyle is an “essentials” color change hud that has a nice variety of hair colors.

Here are the details, Enjoy!

Angelic

As the April Hunts are winding down, it’s always fun to find a new-to-me designer with a free Group Gift I don’t have to search for. 😉

This is the Sam Quendra Set from Alter and it’s the April group gift for the girls. The set includes everything you need for an angelic presence. You get the dress, the gorgeous wings, the shoes for SLink High feet and the silver arm bracers. The dress comes in the standard Mesh sizes XS-XL and has a good alpha.  Plus the group is free to join.  There are also a few past gifts set out for us late comers.  The group also has a very nice men’s gift out right now as well which Gabriel is making noises about showing off, so stay tuned.

If you remember my last post, I showed you Miss Canning’s free group gift jeans in the black. I’m showing the blue version here today. Plus, these come in a green tone as well.

I’m also wearing the ‘Simple Dragon Choker’ from Jinx. You can pick up this lovely at the  Fair Play  event for free. Jinx has generous set it out as a free for everyone gift just for stopping by.  Fair Play runs until January 27 so don’t delay.

No more yielding than a dream

Happy Friday FabFree Folks! And it’s a  happy Friday indeed with the huge Midsummer Night’s Dream Hunt in full swing!

This really is a huge Hunt: one hundred and four stops! The stops are organized into six paths, each named for a character in the play. So I know you can find something you love. I found so many things I had trouble picking what I wanted to show. I know, I know… such a problem to have…

This is the hunt prize for Bad Revenge. You get the lovely asymmetrical dress, the flowers for your waist and the flower crown. The build is spot on and moves beautifully. Bad Revenge is definitely a shop I will be returning to with this example of their work. My earrings are also a Hunt prize today. These are the ‘Wishing Star’ earrings from The Kandi Store. You also get a matching nose ring in the prize.

The 1L per prize Midsummer Night’s Dream Hunt runs until July 21 but with one hundred and four stops… y’all better get going!

Into the Woods

Hello FabFree Folks, I hope you’re all having a wonderful weekend.  One of my favorite things to do over a gorgeous weekend like this one is go camping. So when I saw the Camping Trip Hunt I jumped on it.

This is the ‘Plaid Tie Outfit’ from JLZ Fashions. I love the cute casual look and the sassy but still modest shorts. This is something I’d even wear in RL as well as SL.  The hair style I’m wearing here is ‘Velma’ from RunAway hair.  Usually, Hunt prize hairs are just the one color but [RA] has given us the entire fatpack for ‘Velma’. That’s 30 colors for us!

Adorably Strange Wares has set out this ‘Glamping Hammock’ for the Hunt and I thought it was the perfect way to relax in style. The hammock comes with it’s own two trees and gently falling leaves. There are ten poses so you’ll be sure to find the one that makes you happy and relaxed. Plus, it only has a nine land impact.

 

The 0L Camping Trip Hunt runs until May 15th so get your tents and hiking boots and go get it!

Pretty in Savoha Pink

Hello my dears, welcome to Friday! I don’t know about y’all but I’m ready for the weekend! Course… I say that and with all the snow I’m not likely going anywhere for a few days….
Anyway… One of the very best things about becoming a FabFree blogger for me has been discovering new and ‘new to me’ designers and shops. Today’s Cart designer is one of the ‘new to me’ and I’m so pleased to have found Savoha!

This is The Retro Halter Dress I’ve got on today. I paired it with the Pink Leather Slink High Heel and topped it off with just the right amount of sparkle, the Diamond Heart necklace. I love the little details: the swing of the 50’s look skirt, the Star Gazer lily and the gorgeous floral pink fabric that makes me think about sunny days.

This is Savoha’s Cart here in the Wash packed full of lovely things all for 10L!

This round of the Cart Sale is one of the very best I’ve ever seen. So don’t miss it!

Once Upon a Time…

. . . . there was lovely princess who had a magical nightingale that sang the most beautiful songs….

Hello, my dears! If you’ve ever loved fairytales, I have the hunt for you: Finding the Fairytale by Fun With Hunts!

This is the Fairytale Dress: Rose by Toxic*H. The corset and dress are one seamless piece with just one alpha layer. I love the rich red color and the bell sleeves. I don’t know if designers get together sometimes and plan their hunt gifts to perfectly compliment each other but that’s what’s happened with the Rose dress and the “Fire in Flight” Beaded necklace from Glint. Don’t they look great together?

What’s a good story without some magic? This is the Mechanical Nightingale from Insanity’s Own. The little shoulder bird sings at a touch as his key winds. After taking the pictures, I set him up in my house to keep me and Blaze company.

This hunt has a little something for everyone. There are gifts for both men and women and things for the home. There’s even some very nice poses. These elegant poses are from Verocity and there are several couples poses from other Hunt participates.

The Finding the Fairytale Hunt is a 1L hunt and it runs until Feb. 28 so get your fairy wings and wands and get hunting!

Hearts and Angels

Hello hello, my dears. I am blithely continuing on my February rampage of love today since I found the perfect wardrobe for it!

This is Goddess dress from AnaMarkova and it’s their group gift for February. It is so light and airy I immediately thought of angels and wings. And Jinx has the wings I needed! These are the “She’s an Angel” wings in white. They also come in a raven black version. The white wings have pick sparkle that turn on and off with a touch while the dark wings have red sparkles.

While I was at Jinx, I also found this nifty “Love You” necklace and earrings.  I love the unusual wrap style of the necklace. The set comes with a HUD to change the color and brightness of the hearts so you can make them ANY color you want. Very nice!

AnaMarkova is celebrating having five hundred members in their group this month and have set out these lovely “Lavish” pumps for SLink High Feet. Simple elegant and so very well made, they are a welcome addition to my closet!
