Hey hey Fabulouses! What could be better than a little love in a bucket? How about a new free group gift at Salt & Pepper?
Spreading the Love
Inworld members of the Salt & Pepper group, have a new treat up for Pride Month and they haven’t forgotten about the guys either! I’ll include the vendor shot below so you can see the matching gift for guys. What you see me barely wearing today is the wet/dry interactive Delilah bikini in Rainbow, which is the new group gift at S&P for the girls. This group is 300L to join, but there are TONS of group gifts to grab.
Sizes Included:
Maitreya Lara
Slink Hourglass
Belleza Freya

Hey there Fabulouses! I am such a chicken… As much fun as it looks, I would never dive off of falls in real life. I’d be far too worried about how long I’d be stuck under the water not breathing and it’s cold and wet… (shudders). My hair would get wet! I am more of a shore lounger or a beach walker in RL, but in SL I’m as brave as they come. The new wet/dry interactive swimsuit group gift at Salt & Pepper inspired me to take a trip to the beautiful Soul2Soul Falls Sim and finally take a crack at the diving cliff. I took a short video, which you can see below after the description of the group gift. It’s super fun… You can do all kinds of dives. Go give it a try!!
About the Swimsuit
The Salt & Pepper inworld group is 300L to join, but when you are a part of it, you gain access to a whole section of free group gifts including the new Zara Swimsuit that comes in a fatpack with wet/dry options. I was lucky enough to join when it was free a couple months back. I hope you did too! With the interactive HUD, you can set the swimsuit to stay dry, stay wet or be interactive wet when you enter Linden water and you can dry off again with the included animated towel when you are back on land. The sarong I am wearing is also wet/dry interactive, but is not included with the Zara Swimsuit. It’s also a free group gift at Salt & Pepper though, and you can find it in the VIP section with the rest of the gifts.
Sizes Included:
Maitreya Lara
Slink Hourglass
Belleza Freya

Hello there FabFree Readers! In a recent post on FabFree, I mentioned that Salt & Pepper is celebrating their 4th Anniversary in Second Life with gifts and surprises and all kinds of fun, including a temporary free group join that just ended recently.
Look at all the colours!
The group is now back up to 300L to join, so I hope you joined when I told you to the other day in my post [HERE]! If not… you still might be tempted in order to grab this amazing group gift of the Mary Lingerie in a massive pack of colours as shown below. The sheer lace is so sexy and it fits like a glove.
Hey there Fabulouses! I know I have been here already today, but I didn’t want you to miss out on a very time sensitive offer I just came across this afternoon!
Happy 4th Salt & Pepper!
Salt & Pepper is celebrating four years in Second Life over February 1st and 2nd and with that they are offering a free join into their inworld group which is normally 300L to join and a new free group gift! There are several group gifts in the VIP area to enjoy, so make sure you grab them all!
I’m wearing Dee, the latest group gift – which is a very sexy corset & panty set that comes with a texture change HUD that allows for 10 different colours and 5 metal options.
Lingerie – Salt & Pepper Dee (free group gift / 0L / free to join Feb1st & 2nd) Pasties – Dead Dollz Erotica Pasties (75L per play @ Epiphany) Choker – Cae Desire
I missed this gift in time for Christmas, but I still was able to pick it up in time for New Years, and I think the print is perfect for cold January nights. Now all I need is a warm cozy fire and someone to curl up with! Fuzzy blankets would be a plus.
Pick up this gift at Salt & Pepper under the Christmas Tree that is in store while you still can. It includes the bra, bottoms, and stockings. The group join fee is 300L but there are many past group gifts still available to pick up if you are a first time joiner. Just wander back into the store and make away with your goodies. Plus, by wearing your group tag, you’ll get 15% off applied to all in-store purchases.
Fits available:
Maitreya Lara
Slink Hourglass
Belleza Freya

The weather has cooled down the last few nights where I live… cold winds ushered in by thunderstorms. It’s made me think that fall will perhaps be here sooner rather than later. But that’s okay. I’ve always enjoyed the autumn breezes and warm browns and oranges that mark the season. It’s not quite cold enough for sweaters yet, but it’s cool enough I’m wanting to start my fall wardrobe, so I picked up a gift that tickled my fancy for that!
Soft Golds
I stopped by Guilia Design and picked up the Third Life Group gift called “Cherry Gold”. I’m not too sure about the name as the gift includes these great black leather pants plus this gold tones snake skin top and a separate mesh belt, but I’m going with it because I really love the outfit!
Cherry Gold comes in all the standard mesh sizes plus quality alpha layers for system bodies (if you need it). Remember, the Third Life group is only 10L to join if you are not already in it, so this gift will only cost you 10L. And the Third Life Group gives you access to gifts in stores all over the grid, so it’s well worth joining!
Change of Pace
I don’t usually show off collar gifts, as they are not my personal style… but I love the quality of clothing and items at Salt & Pepper and I think the creator turns out some truly beautiful gifts. I wanted to make sure and share this new gift that Salt & Pepper has out for group members, as it’s incredibly well made and really lovely.
The “Toy” Collar comes in two versions “His Toy” or “Her Toy” and both are fully customizable with a hud that allows you to change the color of both the leather and the metal. (I’ve included a picture of the advertisement below to show the options). It is also resizable making it unisex as well. You’ll need to click the menu to find the resize option. It is RLV enabled for those who are interested.
The Salt & Pepper Group does have a one-time join fee of 300L, however there are quite a few very nice past group gifts still out for you to enjoy, and the creator is generous about putting out new, quality group gifts as well, making the fee worth it in my opinion!

Good evening FabFree Readers! If you are in the market for a little something sexy to grab your partners attention, make sure you take a trip to Salt & Pepper to check out their most recent group gift! There is a 150L fee to join this group, however there are several gifts available in the VIP shelves at the back of the store such as these shown my Astrid [HERE], and [HERE].
Come Here Loverboy!
Feast your eyes upon this very sexy halter neck Babydoll. It comes with a HUD that allows you to wear sheer or opaque and change the colour between black, ivory and pink. If you can believe it, this is actually the opaque version. If you want to turn up the juice, although I bet you won’t need to – just flip the switch to sheer ;).
Sizes included:
Maitreya Lara
Belleza Isis & Freya
Slink Physique & Hourglass
Oh Loverboy?…
There’s more! These Gadhra Metal Leg Wraps are also a free group gift as well and come with a HUD that allows for a few colours and metal change.

Roleplay and fantasy have always been a huge part of my Second Life experience, and truly great roleplay outfits are usually defined by their accessories. So! This accessories post is all about accessories for different types of roleplay or fantasies!
I put together this whimsical outfit with a FREE soft yellow dress by antielle. which I found on the marketplace. It might be new to some of you as it hasn’t been blogged in a while, but some time back, Tiana Omizu showed the dress HERE. It’s a lovely mesh little number in a soft yellow and all the standard sizes. But we all know that a dress is just a dress unless you add the right details. Accessorize!
To add my fantasy feel to this dress I donned this amazing Coral Witch Headress in gold (there are five colors in the Marketplace pack) from Aii ~ The Ugly and the Beautiful. The 5-pack of colors is only 10L and these headresses are modifiable as well!
My Earcuffs are by PoshTale and are a FREE Marketplace gift. These are colorchange with three color choices. I went with the gold, but you could chose red or blue. They fit perfectly over human shaped ears to add an elven and fantasy feel.
Hair – Magika – Now
Dress – antielle. Marin Magique Sunny! Gift (0L/FREE on the Marketplace/ First shown HERE by Tiana Omizu)
Earcuffs – PoshTale – Eru EarCuffs (0L/FREE on the Marketplace)
Horns – Aii ~ The Ugly and the Beautiful – Coral Witch Headress 5 pack – gold shown (10L on the Marketplace)
Sometimes roleplay or fantasies go a bit darker… for those days (or nights!) I found a great one stop shop for you. Tabou! Here you can pick up three group gifts sure to make for some steamy fantasy roleplay. Currently the Tabou Group is FREE to join and you can pick up this blindfold, septum nose piercing and bracelet as FREE gifts. I did edit the bracelet by moving it up to make an armlet, as it’s modifiable. So if you have a bit of editing skills, I imagine you could make it into an anklet or other versatile piece!
Head – LeLutka – Stella w/ Glam Affair Base Applier hud
Hair – Exile – Temptation Waits
Bra – {Luxuria} Naughty Rose in Black
Blind Fold – Tabou – Blind Love – Bloody (0L/FREE Group Gift/Free to Join Group)
Septum Piercing – Tabou – Bublles septum – copper (0L/FREE Group Gift/Free to Join Group)
Armlet – Tabou – My Holiday Hand (0L/FREE Group Gift/Free to Join Group)
I’ve always thought that Greek and Romanesque roleplay looked lovely and inviting. The feel of it to me is divine! I put on a simple silk as my base, but that is never enough to give you the proper look. To get the look I wanted, I finished off this silk with two great accessories from two amazing stores.
First, stop by Luas Urban Style. My Owl Jewel Set is a FREE lucky letter board available to Luas group members. The group is FREE to join. It includes the necklace and earrings shown above, as well as a ring (not shown).
I picked up the bold Gadhra Metals necklace from Salt & Pepper. It is their most recent group gift. The gift is FREE with group membership. The group is 100L to join but the frequent, quality gifts make it well worth joining. This was a set which included matching earrings as well (not shown), and the set is also color change for several metal choices.
Head – LeLutka – Stella w/ Glam Affair Base Applier hud
Hair – Truth – Leticia
Outfit – Soedara – Venustas Togulae 2 in White
Short Neclace – Salt & Pepper Group Gift – Gadhra Metals (0L/FREE gift to Group Members/100L to Join the Group)
Long Necklace & Earrings – Luas Urban Style – Owl Jewel Set (0L/FREE Group Lucky Letter Board/FREE to Join the Group)
Sometimes we all need something a little whimsical and innocent. Remember when the tooth-fairy was real and we still believed in unicorns? I love this FREE February Group gift from [MUSE] NSP Florals. The little Unicorn Daisy is sweet as can be. The group is 75L to join, but with great monthly offers like this, it is worth the investment.
Head – LeLutka – Stella w/ Glam Affair Base Applier hud
Hair – Magika – Almonds
Horn – [MUSE] – Unicorn Daisy (0L/FREE Gift to Group Members/75L to Join the Group)
To wrap up, we all have our wild side! I began my look by picking out this outfit called Antiope by Sweet Lies from the Marketplace. It is only 59L and modifiable for an easy fit. It has a feel that is perfect for lots of roleplay settings, which I love!
To give it a finishing touch, I added another Marketplace item: a 1L gift from Old World — this Medieval Fish Bone Necklace. The Necklace has all the terrific details we know and love Old World for, and for the sweet little price of 1L, it is a terrific touch to finish off a wild look.
Head – LeLutka – Stella w/ Glam Affair Base Applier hud
Hair – Exile – One Way or Another
Outfit – Sweet Lies – Antiope Brown Outfit (59L on the Marketplace)
Necklace – Old World – Medieval Necklace Fish Bone (1L on the Marketplace)
Salt & Pepper is celebrating their 1 year anniversary… with an AMAZING gift! You don’t want to miss out on this stunningly sensual latex Annie dress in three amazing colors (it comes with a hud to pick your favorite) and I’m showing you all three gorgeous colors below. This gift is mesh and includes standard sizes XS – M as well as Slink Physique, Slink Hourglass, and Maitreya fits and fits like a dream! It is FREE with your group tag. The group is 100L to join, but with gifts as fantastic as this one, it’s well worth the small fee!
I also went hair hunting and found some great deals! My fun hairstyles are FREE and you won’t want to miss out on rocking these styles!
First up is a new Midnight Mania Board that Besom is offering. It is FREE if you are in the group, slap the board, and it locks down before midnight! This hot to trot style called Navi, comes with the Ophelia tintable hair base as well and is a full fatpack! It is a group required Midnight Mania board, but the group is FREE to join, so you won’t have to spend a single Linden!
My second hair is called Echoes and is yours if you stop by Moon. Hair and pick up their generous group gift offerings. The group is currently FREE to join, making this gorgeous long do FREE as well! It comes with a hud with a variety of lovely colors and the hair itself also comes in 3 mesh sizes to accommodate differing avatar body sizes with regards to the chest area (which I loved! no slider adjustments here! \o/).
The third hair I am sporting above is another Moon. Hair group gift currently available and is called Paper Cuts II. It was also offered with a hud in a variety of colors as well as two mesh sizes (small and large). Another great FREE hair to add to your inventory!
Don’t miss out on these deals! Be sure to jump on them before they disappear!

“Beauty is power; a smile is its sword.” — John Ray
It is often the small things and simplest pleasures that make us smile. I think that is why I love this round up of gifts and treasures so much. Alone they are simple… but together they are stunning. And they made me smile. Did I need them to be beautiful? Nah… but I felt beautiful wearing them.
“Let us live for the beauty of our own reality.” — Charles Lamb.
I think Charles Lamb would have approved of the reality woven by the gifts above. [Muse] is celebrating 1000 members with this resizable Evil Eye Choker gift (though there is nothing evil about this gorgeous gift) which you can pick up for FREE with your NSP Floral Group tag. There is a 75L group join fee, but the monthly gifts and goodies make it worthwhile.
Seeing my own reality through that eye, I knew I needed something special to go with it. And Salt & Pepper didn’t let me down. Their group gifts are usually jewelry, but this month the creator opted to give this sexy black romper called Kiara as the group gift. It is FREE with your group tag and comes in all the standard mesh sizes. Again there is a small join fee (100L) but like NSP Floral, the monthly gifts makes it worth it.
I finished off my adventure into my own reality with a spin on the 30L Julianne Shoes Gacha at Belle Epoque. These shoes fit medium high Slink feet and come in quite a few colors to match just about anything in your wardrobe. I love the strappy, open-toe style!
“The more often we see things around us – even the beautiful and wonderful things – the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds – even those we love. Because we see things so often we see them less and less.” — Joseph B. Wirthlin
I wasn’t done with Belle Epoque this weekend, though, as you can see in the picture above. Sometimes you need to take a little time to stop and smell the flowers. And Belle Epoque‘s 30L Saturday offer is just the thing to remind us of all the beautiful and wonderful things in life that we often take for granted. Above, I am modeling the Imelda Dress in Pink (it comes in all the standard mesh sizes and 3 colors – each for only 30 L!) and there are matching shoes for each color as well! The shoes are also only 30L each for this 30L round. Belle Epoque is leaving this lovely offering out for the weekend, but be sure to stop by before the end of Sunday evening or you will miss out! Hurry!
My necklace is a fantastic 1L Market place find by Cazimi Designs called Diantha Modern Girly Partial Set and was just the thing to set off this flowery dress. It came with earrings too (not shown). For 1L, the quality is hard to beat!
“Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them.” — David Hume.
Need something more studious? Belle Epoque‘s creator outdid herself this weekend. Well known for medieval fantasy, this FREEgroup gift with your FREEgroup join called Eleanor has a vintage appeal that with a few of the right accessories takes on a contemplative look that is just right for vintage roleplay, a date night, or even just casual wear. It not only includes the skirt and jacket in all the standard mesh sizes, but you also get the resizable hat as well.
For a little added flair, I made my way upstairs to the Shoe Gachas again, this time trying my luck with the 30L Emily Shoe machine. A spin won me the pumps in Brown which turned out to be a perfect complement to the outfit. I also paired it with this Sunglass Necklace I found on the Marketplace from BricOle‘s Designs for only 20L.
“Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.” — Anne Frank.
On a final note, Belle Epoque‘s 30L offerings this weekend are incredibly generous and there really is something to make just about any shopper happy. Not only is the Imelda dress and matching shoes available this weekend, but you can also pick up the Berezia Dress in three colors for 30L each. I’m modeling it in the picture above in champagne.
And for those who love capes and hats but are (like me) distressed that you can almost never find hair to fit under them, this Berezia Cape from Belle Epoque in three matching colors with four hair color choices (again 30L each for this weekend only, so hurry) is the perfect solution. Like the dress, the cape is mesh, but comes in 3 standard sizes and fit perfectly with a fabulous ‘flow’ to it as you can see in the picture above — a great inventory “must have” for roleplayers… or anyone really!
