Chat Time

Hey FabFree! My holiday season is officially here for me, and I celebrated by setting up this great patio spread by Noveny in my backyard. I invited my good friend Orion to come hang with me and watch the sunset and chat the night away together! Orion is a dedicated freebie finder and you will often find her chatting away and helping others in the FabFree chat in world.

Free Decor from Noveny!

One of our FabFree designers, Noveny, is incredibly generous. You can get this whole outdoor furniture set by Noveny for free at Ajuda SL Brasil. Orion tipped me off about this awesome find! I was really amazed by how many items are included in this free set, and the items are so gorgeously textured and detailed. This is the perfect gift to bring in summer this year! The items shown in my photo that are included in the freebie are:

• The grey outdoor sectional sofa. The blue pillows are included, and it includes and it includes PG singles and couples animations.
• The grey chair. The blue pillows are included, and it includes PG singles and couples animations.
• The large potted plant which is beside me. See below for another detailed photo of the potted plant. There are lovely little stone pebbles inside the basket-weaved pot.
• The small round coffee table.
• The round-shaped end table.

I added a some more decor around the patio, and the three plants on the coffee table in the centre are also a free gift . These are “Vintage Pot Can” plants, which are a free group gift at Noveny’s mainstore. Just join their free group and pay the vendor 1 L (it will be refunded automatically).

For the Love of Flowers!

I am a big fan of floral clothing. This is the time of year when all the floral patterns start to pop up in the stores and nothing makes me happier!

Annie

This lovely bun is the latest group gift at Mina. The hairstyle comes with options to add and remove the bangs, and to attach and remove the done-up bun at the back. It’s a lovely hairstyle! The Mina VIP group costs 200L to join.

The Dress of Many Patterns!

This dress I have on has many different floral and spring patterns, and it only costs 1 L on the Hop Along Hunt 4. You can pick this hunt prize up at Ari-Pari. The hint to find the prize is: “find where the waterfalls are underneath the vines of ivy.” I love how the petals fall on this pattern of the dress- they look like they are alive because the texture is so realistic. All other photos of prizes and hints for the Hop Along Hunt 4 can be found here.

Sizes Included

• Physique
• Hourglass
• Lara
• Freya
• Venus
• Isis

Aurora

I even bought some matching floral sandals called Aurora Sandals at Pure Poison which cost only 38 L in their outlet with the free group tag active. I’ve been eyeing these sandals for a while, because you have the option to change the colour of the petals separately from the sandal straps. What a great deal this is! I have included the vendor photo below so you can see what the whole sandal looks like.

Sizes Included

• Lara
• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis

See you soon, FabFree!

A Backyard Office

Good evening, FabFree. I hope you are all having a pleasant night. I am just sitting under the lights in my backyard enjoying the spring break. Now that I am working from home again, it’s nice that the spring weather is here so I can work away outside in my backyard. This is a nice change of scenery from my stuffy office and I can finally get some fresh air after a long, grueling winter!

Petit Chat’s FREE Retiring Sale!

Petit Chat has a retiring sale on the Marketplace. For the sale, you can find a lot of items for free including shoes, hats and bags. These gorgeous beaded sandals are a free fatpack for the sale on the Marketplace. The cute little bracelet white I am wearing is another free gift on the sale, where you can buy here. 

I am not sure how long this free sale is going on for. From what I understand, this is a temporary sale because Petit Chat will be retiring these items for good. It’s always so sad when this happens, but also so kind of creators when they make their items available for such a low price! Go show Petit Chat some love by visiting their Marketplace store.

An Adorable Spring Set

I am sharing another free gift on the Evil Bunny Hunt 11 today. This adorable top and shorts set is the 1 L hunt prize from Ari-Pari. It has a lovely William Morris-esque floral pattern on the shorts and the set include 10 top and short colour options that can be changed via a hud. This is one of the “nice” bunny prizes on the hunt, and the hint to find the item is: “Shhh… there’s a kitteh sleeping nearby!”

Cuteness

Valentine’s is the perfect season for looking cute, which we all do. It’s time to get cute ladies, and today I’ll show you how to achieve this great look.

Another 500 L Giftcard!

I am unloading the news of gift credits this week, and Trend has a 500L Credit at their store out for group members. As far as I am aware, this offer ends and the credit expires on the 14th so go quickly. You must join their group to get in on this offer and the group costs 150L to join currently. I purchased the replay eyeshadow and queen eyelashes with the gift. I also grabbed all their group gifts at the back of the store, and a lipstick pack which is a free Second Life Frees & Offer (SLFO) group gift.

The Cuteness

The rest of my cute outfit is made up of freebies and cheapies I’ve been collecting all over the grid. Here are the details of my outfit:

• The hair is another group gift in the no.match group. This is the “No Addiction” hair, and it is located at the top of the building (cam up to the roof to grab it). The no.match group costs 50 L to join.
• The dress is a 10 L special by Ari-Pari at the Love Hurts Hunt. You can grab a total of 5 dresses at the hunt for 10 L each (see hunt key below). There are lots of designers offering cheap gifts at this event, and you can find more information about the hunt here.
• The sparkly nails are a group gift at Ari-Pari, which costs 25 L to Join. The nails come in 6 colour options, and they are super cute.
• These sandals, which I LOVE, are a free gift from Mangula at the Shop & Hop. They have a free 300 L credit there as well, so grab that reward while you’re there (it expires on Febuary 20th).
• The pose I am using is also a free group gift at Mirinae. They have a bunch of free group gifts and they are well worth checking out if you are in need of new poses like I always am!

Happy Valentine’s Eve, Fab Free!

Soak Up the Sun

Hi Fab Free! I don’t think I’m quite ready to head out to the beaches, but my backyard basin will do me fine. The weather is nice, and I need some sunshine. Most  of my little backyard setup is a new gacha set by Petite Mort out at Gacha Garden. My bikini and wedge shoes are part of the set too. Oh, and let’s not forget the best part, the mojito!

What’s this about a mojito you ask? Well, it is the Petite Mort Exclusive at Gacha Garden awarded after 20 plays. It has an animated hold pose. The bikini and shoes both come in several sizes and colors, and the furniture has poses. This fun Cabana gacha set by Petite Mort at Gacha Garden is just 50 linden per play, and is perfect for summer.

From Head to Toe

It’s Tuesday! And that means 25L specials! I made away like a bandit today and put together a roleplay look that you won’t want to miss out on. Some of you who don’t roleplay may like the looks of these deals too!

From Head to Toe!

I made my first stop at Calico where they have out two hairstyles for just 25L per color pack (or 150L for the fatpack). I chose the pretty “Daphne” style you see in my picture. It’s a fully mesh style, but also includes an optional flexi attachment (not shown) if you want some added softness. For just 25L per pack, this style is a steal!

A dress, a dress!

EvelineInTheBox never ceases to amaze me with pretty dresses for my wardrobe. This dress is perfect for roleplay (I’ve set myself up as a seamstress here in this scene, but this dress is really perfect for so many things), but this dress would also work great for a casual date or every day wear as well. Best yet for your 25L you also get a color change hud and 10 color choices, including brown, pink, moss, lavender, charcoal, red, sky (shown), black, olive, and salmon.

Sizes available:

• Standard mesh sizes XXS – L
• Slink
• Maitreya

A free gift too

While I was at EvelineInTheBox, I took the opportunity to pick up their free Group gift! The group is free to join, and they currently have out these pretty leather and star anklets. These are made to fit Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza, as well as there is a classic size with a resize script in the box.

One more stop.

I finished my wandering at On a Lark where I picked up a set of sandals. These flats are just 25L per color (or 150 for the fatpack of colors which includes all the colors plus all the metal textures too). I’m showing off the blue one’s here with the silver straps. For just 25L these Flat Sandals by On a Lark are a steal and come in sizes to fit Maitreya or Slink feet.

WOH3 Goes to the Beach

Hello Hello Fab Free’rs! All I can say is wow, the Women Only Hunt 3 is more than worth the effort. I almost can’t believe all the beautiful hunt prizes I’ve been seeing. I’m here today to share with you three of my personal favorites from the Women Only Hunt. Kathryn blogged a few of the WOH gifts in her posts “A Lil Bit of Lace” and “Daydreaming on a Sunday Afternoon.” You can check those posts out here. As for me, I’ve been dreaming of the beach something fierce, so of course I picked a few beach-items to share with you.

These fantastic nails are the FREE WOH prize at Slack Girl. They come in several sizes to fit various mesh hands. Also included is a color change hud to let you choose different color options. You’ll be hunting for a little coconut, and this one took me a minute to find. I don’t recall the exact hint, but it has something to do with locks or locked.

Sizes/Fits Included: Slink, Maitreya, Vista, Tuty

Next up, the cute colorful bikini Pru is wearing is the FREE WOH from Slipper. It comes in a single mesh size, and the top can be worn separately from the bottom. There really isn’t anything I don’t love about this freebie, I felt it fit my Maitreya Lara mesh body very well. I’m not sure what the hint is here either (I didn’t pick up the hud with all the hints), but it’s always good advice to try a demo.

Finally, I could not resist these gladiator sandals from ChicChica. They are also a FREE WOH prize. Even though they are bright yellow, I want to wear them with everything in my summer closet! Look for this coconut somewhere that sparkles.

Sizes Included: Slink Physique, Slink Hourglass, Maitreya Lara, Belleza Isis

Garden Party

Hello again, FabFree Floks. I don’t know about where y’all are but our temperature is somewhere between OMG and WTF. Yeah, it’s hot. And the best thing on a hot day? A huge glass of ice cold sweet iced tea.  If you can’t get that then some Sweet Tea might be the next best thing.

This is the Summer Mini from Sweet Tea and it one of the group gifts set out for us. The group costs 50L to join but you’ll make that back right away with the eleven gifts available. This cool shorty sundress comes with a HUD with four really cute color/patterns. I picked this aqua blue because it just felt so summery. Plus, it went perfectly with the aqua and white platform sandals for SLink Flat feet from 2pm’s  Raki Ribbon Platforms gacha machine at Kustom9.  The gacha has ten commons in ice cream colors and two rares that are white soles with color HUDs for the straps.  Kustom9 runs until July 10 but don’t delay.. the date will creep up faster than you realize.

A Day at the Lake with Chrysalis and Boudoir

Greetings!

A quick post today to let you all know that Chrysalis has now closed their inworld store.  However, you can still purchase her beautiful designs on the Marketplace.  To make shopping a bit easier, for the bargain hunter, Chrysalis has two Marketplace stores….the regular priced Chrysalis and the Chrysalis Attic.  I found this wonderful Margot mesh long dress white in her attic store for only 75L!  This beautiful strapless sheath dress has classic lines and pintuck draping at the hem…finished off with the optional rossette, it is the perfect dress for a wonderful day wandering the countryside or an evening out for dinner and dancing.  You can also find a FREE Chrysalis – Bows & Butterflies dress *Special Gift* in the Chrysalis Attic.

I complimented the dress with the [Fairy Tail] Garden jewelry set (group gift/store closed) and an enchanting Spring Fairy Parasol (with animated butterflies), from Boudoir, a Gatcha prize (50L per play) at the entrance to the main store!  My shoes are the Jolie Sandals (beige/Slink flat feet compatible), part of a fat pack I bought from the 50% off sale Pure Poison had this past weekend.  If you missed the 50% sale or if you don’t use Slink feet…you can still benefit from a trip to Pure Poison!  The group is still free to join and there are TONS of FREE goodies at the main store landing point!

Happy Shopping! ❤ ❤
