Ok, so I may have a mild obsession with the beach and ice cream right now. Can you blame me though? It’s July and all things sweet and hot are on the horizon. Why fight it when all I want to do is spend my days on the sand?
Sizzling!
You may have heard here on the blog that The Wash Sizzling Summer Cart sale is going down! I really love this event, because you find some really fun deals when you check out the stalls! I came across this super adorable minidress by ML Fashion. The best part about it is the fact that it’s materials enabled which means that it shines and glows as you move, giving a really realistic iridescent effect. I chose the darker “rainbow” effect outfit, but there are a few other options that are really just as pretty. I picked this sweet outfit up (which comes with an amazing set of lace up sandals too) for just 25L! There’s also a freegift at the cart as well, so make sure you check that out!
I’m not sure what Aline and I saw off camera, but it must have looked delicious! Speaking of delicious things, if finding freebies was like buying candy, Beautiful Dirty Rich would be the whole sweet shop. Beautiful Dirty Rich is celebrating 10 years in Second Life and has a generous group gift waiting. It includes 10 total free group gifts all neatly bundled in one big gift that you won’t want to miss out on. Aline was sweet enough to help me show 3 of the 10, and I’ll add the gift key below. Currently the Beautiful Dirty Rich group is free to join, so don’t hesitate to head over and grab these sweet gifts and the several other previous gifts that are still available.
Aline’s Top:
The cute cropped top Aline is wearing is free gift number 7 of 10 from Beautiful Dirty Rich. It’s called the Brisa Crop Top. Included in the gift is a color hud that lets you pick from blue, pink, or black, and allows you custom tint any of the 3 colors. It also comes in the following sizes: Maitreya Lara, Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Slink (Hourglass, Physique), eBody Curvy.
Pru’s Tee:
The tied tee shirt Pru is wearing is free gift number 5 of 10 of the Beautiful Dirty Rich birthday gifts. It also has a color/texture hud with 6 preset graphic tee options and the ability to tint each one. Additionally this top is suitable for classic and mesh avatars. There is an alpha layer included along with the following sizes: Maitreya Lara (+ 1 larger Maitreya size), Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Slink (Hourglass, Physique), Tonic (Curvy, Fine), TMP, eBody Classic, and Classic Mesh (xs – XL).

We’ll always be together However far it seems We’ll always be together Together in electric dreams
Sometimes I feel like Together in Electric Dreams is kind of the theme song of Second Life. We basically all hang out together, our thoughts zapping at each other through electrical currents as we make friends, fall in love and be whatever we really want to be. I sometimes get a bit philosophical about what Second Life is, or what it can mean to us all, and I’m sure you’ll agree it can definitely be a special place. It has its ups and downs, but it brought you here, and I’m glad you’re here, so it can’t be all bad, now can it?

I know we spend a lot of time talking about fashion and Second Life, but the thing that keeps us always coming back for more is by far the friendships we make along the way. The strange path of SL can bring you to loads of places, but one of the more pleasant paths brought me to my lovely friend Seraph, who happens to be my favourite unicorn of all time. Seraph wrote to me a little while back, knowing my penchant for clothes and whispered into my ears of a really gorgeous gacha over at Kustom9 that I needed to take a look at. Well she was exceedingly right (she’s a very sartorially-inclined unicorn), and we coordinated our forces to bring you all the details of this cuteness!
It’s the Kustom
So Seraph and I ambled our way over to Kustom9, and after just a few little clicks we both had complete outfits, including the hair! At just 69L a pull it really is a cheap way to put a cute outfit together. The tops with the jean jackets are super adorable, just use the enclosed alpha to make your arms disappear (or if you have a Maitreya body, it should do it automatically). There are loads of skirts and tops and jackets to mix and match, and if you happen to get the rare hair (like we both did, after not too many tries) you get a fatpack of colours with the ability to change the colour of the little braids too. The gacha comes in S, M or L as well as being sized for Maitreya bodies. I can’t deal with all the cuteness! Kustom9 is open until April 10th!
I hope you have a magical special someone in your Second Life, because I know that my little unicorn sure lights up my life!

Hello There Fab Free! I have a quick post for you to help get the weekend going. I hope everyone survived the week and is enjoying the weekend thus far. For today’s post I wanted to share with you the female January group gift at BYRNE. As usual, there is a mens group gift at BYRNE as well. This geometric patterned dress is the free group gift. It comes in several sizes, and 2 options. There’s the black version Pru is wearing, and a white version which is the same pattern with the colors reversed. The male gift is a vest with the same cool pattern. Right now the BYRNE group is free to join.
Also, if you like the backdrop Pru is using, it is a past (Jan. 2018) group gift at Foxcity that is still available. The Foxcity group has a one time join fee of 550 linden and there are quite a few group gifts still available.
Here are the details!

Welcome back Fab Free’rs! I’m super excited you’re here. I’m always excited you’re here, but I have a fun post to share with you today that I hope you’ll enjoy. Along with showing off the sassy halter dress Glitter has out as their free Fabulously Free in SL group gift, I wanted to share with you a fun destination I recently discovered. The Vordun is a fully functional art museum and gallery with a well curated collection complete with a detailed audio experience that you can visit and enjoy for free. It was on a whim that I ended up here on a date not too long ago, and it was genuinely a fun and interesting way to spend time with someone in Second Life without going to a club or wading through crowds at an event. Not to mention, The Vordun is a beautifully done venue.
As you enter the building, The Vordun’s lobby is bright with the skylight overhead. One either side of the room you’ll see headsets you can click to allow the hud to attach so you can enjoy the audio presentation that goes along with your walk through the museum. The hud also attaches automatically as you enter further into the room. There are clear detailed instructions on how to use the hud and hear the information about each of the unique pieces of art in the museum. You can also take a look at the map on the wall to get a feel for how big the building really is.
You can choose to follow through the guided tour, which I’d recommend if you have a little free time and enjoy learning about each of the artworks. Alternately you can of course browse through The Vordun at your leisure. I found the exhibit about block printing was my personal favorite. There’s also a really interesting section about a global postcard project where people send postcards to another random participant anywhere in the world. As you round out your visit to The Vordun, there’s even a cute giftshop where you can buy different gifts or souvenirs to remember your visit. Once you’ve had your fill of the museum, I’d also suggest visiting the grounds. There is shopping, and if you follow the path away from The Vordun, you’ll end up at a cute little frozen yogurt shop where you can sit and have a treat while enjoying the scenery.
Lastly, if you’re interested in Pru’s outfit for this post, it does as I mentioned include the most recent Fab Free group gift by Glitter. This beautiful copper/bronze colored halter dress is free to all Fabulously Free in SL group members. Just wear your Fab Free group tag and click the gift vendor at the Glitter main store. If you’re not already a member of the Fabulously Free in SL group, what are you waiting for?! The group is always free to join. This pretty little dress comes in several sizes, and has a hud that allows you to switch the skirt from short to long, choose whether the top is opaque or transparent or “remove” the dress entirely by making it completely transparent. Sizes Included: Fitmesh (xs-XL), Fitmesh Maitreya Lara, Fitmesh Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Fitmesh Tonic (Curvy, Fine), Fitmesh EBody, Fitmesh Slink (Physique, Hourglass), Fitmesh TMP

Hello hello Fab Free’rs! You guessed it, this is another edition of “Designer of the Week” with fabulous designer C!L. This is definitely a new-to-me shop, and as C!L may well be new to you as well, we like to make a little post once a week as we have new designers joining Fabulously Free in SL to tell you about them and all they have to offer (especially the gifts!). C!L is a ladies clothing store that has a sort of “old Hollywood” feel to their clothing style. Much of what you’ll find are mesh dresses for both casual and formal occasions. The C!L shop itself is small, though I suspect that may change. Currently you will see right away the desk where you can grab a little free gift. It’s the small purple giftbox. Also, as you can see C!L is participating in the Magical Winter Hunt.
Here next to the desk is also where you can join the C!L store group. It has a one time join fee of 50 linden. The current C!L group gift is waiting just above the group joiner. It’s a pretty strapless formal gown in several colors. You can also pick up the freeC!L gift for Fabulously Free in SL group members in this spot. The Fab Free group is always free to join. Just click the gift vendor while wearing your Fab Free group tag to get your fabulous fur coat.
Across from the desk on the opposite wall at C!L is a Midnight Mania board. The free prize is another beautiful formal gown in black. There is no group required to participate in this Midnight Mania board, and as you can see the board has a low target that does appear to fill up! Whether you are looking for a formal gown or just something pretty to wear while you shop, definitely stop by C!L and take a look at their glamorous clothing line.
Hello Again Fab Free’rs! I’m always glad you’re here. So I kind of don’t want to admit it, but this sweater by Oubliette suits me so well. *laughs* Not that I don’t get excited, but I’m rarely one to get super outwardly excited. So I could be totally thrilled about something and not express it the way most would expect. This sweater is one of 2 group gifts I picked up today, the second being a 300 linden gift card at Go&See which I used to get this skin for free. In addition I also picked up these earrings by SynCo for free at Winter’s Hollow. Keep reading and I’ll let you know all the info you need about each of these fabulous finds!
The Sweater – Sometimes you just need a little cheekiness in your wardrobe, or at least I do. This sweater is a current group gift at Oubliette. The Petite Mort/Oubliette group is currently free to join, so don’t miss out! Also, there’s an equally fun, if slightly more sinister Krampus sweater waiting over at Petite Mort that you can pick up for free with the same group tag. These novelty sweaters come in several mesh sizes. In addition I want to mention that gift cards are 50% off for a limited time!
The Skin/Gift Card – Right now the Go&See group is just 50 linden to join, and there is a limited time group gift 300 Linden gift card available until December 25th. The group gift card vendor is at the Go&See main store, right next to the redelivery terminal. That said, you could either wear your gift card and add the balance to your store credit then save it for later, or do like I did and pick up 3 of the group only 99 linden promo skins for free. There is a row of group promo 99 linden skins at Go&See. The one Pru is wearing is December’s promo named Eva. Next to the vendor for Eva there are specific instructions posted on how to get the skin for 99 linden, and how to purchase using your store credit. Follow the instructions carefully. You will need to be wearing the Go&See group tag! Eva comes in a Genus Project head applier, with Maitreya and Omega body appliers. Other promo skins come in Catwa appliers, and or Omega appliers. Please be sure to try the free demos before you purchase! Additionally, there are male skins at Go&See.
The Earrings – These tapered studs are a free gift by SynCo at Winter’s Hollow. There is no group needed, just pay the gift box under the Christmas tree 1 linden and be instantly refunded 1 linden. This gift includes a color/texture change hud that will let you choose from preset metallic color choices for 3 parts of the earrings. Also, the same hud will allow you to resize them. I would definitely consider these claw-like studs to be unisex. Winter’s Hollow is open until December 31st.
Here are the details, enjoy!

I’m thinking about moving into an ice palace. It will have all sorts of sparkling things, and I’ll sing about letting things go or something like that. I don’t know…what do people who live in ice palaces do all day? Shiver? Good thing I’ve got this cute outfit to keep me (semi) warm!
Bound for Snow
Have you tried your luck on the Snowbound Hunt yet? If you remember back at Halloween I had a heck of a time doing the Spookzilla Hunt, my eyes were watering and I needed a lie down! This hunt is by the same people, so you may want to take a deep breath and grab some snacks and eye drops before you nestle in for this long winter’s hunt! The entire sim is filled to the brim with gifts hidden in christmas baubles. The stuff I found is by Loki – including this cute sweater and skirt were just 25 Lindens each, and are both sized for Maitreya bodies. I’d say that’s a pretty good deal! Try your luck and see what you can come across at Snowbound!
Free Hair? Yes Please!
Looks like the group join over at Doe is freefor the time being! Not sure how long that will last for, so get yourself over there before they change it back to a paid group! There are currently two freefatpacks of hair on offer in the group gift section, including this cute on I’ve got on today. I won’t keep you – hurry over there!
Ah, the future. That nebulous place that can hold so much promise. I dunno what mine holds, but what I do know is that yours contains some really affordable fashion!
It’s Written in the Stars
My super cute outfit today (top, skirt, boots and stockings) are this month’s offering by QE Designs for Syndicate Sunday! A whole bunch of stores band together each month and offer something cute for just 69 Lindens. You can grab each item I’m wearing for just 69L each, and you’ve got a fab outfit to go and gad about town in that won’t break the bank! The top, skirt and footwear you see me in comes with a really extensive HUD that allows you to personalize your look significantly. Syndicate Sunday runs until November 11th!
