Play in the Paint

I’ve been going through a bit of an artistic phase.  Some phases are a bit more prevalent than others, but since I’ve been spending much more time at home (as one does these days), I’ve been picking up my paintbrush a bit more often than I had been doing in the past.  I’m a great proponent of making lemonade out of lemons, so my rediscovered love of making art falls squarely into the making the best of it category!  I picked up a few fun, free finds today that really reminded me of how happy I am that I’ve got loads of paint to be creative with.

Hunting Time

It’s time for this month’s edition of The Free Dove hunts!  The featured designers this time around are Ydea Style and Shiny Stuffs.  The way this hunt works is that you have to join the free Free Dove group, then look for 5 hidden items at The Free Dove, and 5 at both Ydea Style and Shiny Stuffs!  If you’re searching for goodies from Ydea Style, then you’re looking for a little cupcake, and if it’s Shiny Stuffs you’re hankering for, then look for the little powder compact.  It’s all free, and it’s all fab!  I got this jean skirt from the offerings of  Ydea Style, and the shirt and sparkly tears come courtesy of Shiny Stuffs.  Take a peek at the hunt keys below!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• Isis (skirt only)

 

You’ve got until May 31st to take part, so happy hunting!

Dive Right In

Right, I’ve decided it’s officially summer in SL.  To be fair, it’s usually summer all year if you want it to be, but I have decreed it to be so now.  Time to put on your loudest bikini and dive into the fun of the season!

In the Miix

The Miix Event rages on this month, and they’ve just set up a fun hunt that you can take part in.   In order to grab the goodies, just join the Hype Events group for free, then search for the little orange slices around the event.  There’s also some fun free finds for guys too!  Here’s what I put together:

• FREE bikini by FurtaCor sized for Maitreya, Freya, Isis, Kupra, Hourglass Petite, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya Petite & Hourglass
• FREE scrunchie by FurtaCor
• FREE glasses by FurtaCor
• FREE floatie by Tequila with pose included

This hunt isn’t around for too long – just until May 20th, so get to hunting!

Back to Nature

I went for a ramble through nature today and listened to all the glories that can be found therein.  Birds chirping, leaves fluttering in the light breeze, and even the chatter of a squirrel or two.  I love the time of year where petals are slowly floating through the air from blossom-laden trees, and all seems full of life and promise.  Ok, I got my poetic jag out of my system, let’s get to the deals!

7 is a Good Number

It’s time for another round of 77th street, and with it, plenty of great 7L deals!  I stopped by this round and picked up this lovely dress by Faida for just 7L, as well as these cute wedges by Lybra (sized for Kupra, Freya, Legacy, Maitreya, Slink and Tonic) at 7L as well.  Don’t forget that the 7L deals at 77th street come in limited amounts, so if you’re into it, don’t delay!  Also, don’t forget to pick up the free pair of shoes for FabFree members too!

Dress Sizes

• Legacy
• Legacy Perky
• Maitreya
• Maitreya Petite

77th Street runs until May 27th.

Back to nature I go!

A Slice of Citrus

Today I’m feeling distinctively citrusy.  I’m a tall glass of water filled with slices of orange, lime and of course a really long and superfluous straw.  I’ve got summer on my mind, even though spring feels like it’s barely underway in my neck of the woods.  Time to tuck a flower behind your ear and get the carefree feeling that is synonymous with the season of sun.

What, Again?

I feel like I’ve been doing the same song and dance the last few days, finding great gifts from awesome events that are celebrating milestones this month.  Welp, I’ve got yet another one for you today, I hope you won’t be too mad at me for filling your inventory up!  It’s time to celebrate EBento!  Just join their free group, and you’ll be rolling in the free gifts for ages!  Here’s what I found:

• Free top and skirt by ADD sized for Kupra, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya & Maitreya Petite
• Free purse by My Bags by Mia Blauvelt with several different pose options
• Free glasses by Roslyn
• Free earrings by Supernatural

There’s a heck of a lot more there too, so you’re sure to find a little sumthin’ sumthin’ you love.  EBento runs until May 31st!

Private Party

In the age of social distancing, I couldn’t agree more with the sentiment that this shirt is pushing!  Though honestly, I have never been more thankful for the existence of Second Life since March 2020, where I can hang out with friends, go to parties, and have adventures all from the safety of my own home.  But, still!  Sometimes one just needs to have a private party!

Another One!

You may have noticed that events with gifts are popping up all over the place at this time of year, and I am the very last person to complain about the generosity and inventiveness of designers!  Today we’re celebrating The 4 Seasons Event’s 1st anniversary, and in true SL style, there’s a free gift at every booth.  Just join the free 4 Seasons group, and click on the little boxes.  Here’s what I’m showing off:

• FREE top by The Bold Llama sized for Freya, Isis, Venus, Ebody, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and XS-XL with an alpha layer
• FREE glasses by Oops (so cute! so superfluous!)

There’s lots more to discover, and you’ve got until May 22nd to make it happen!

Happy Birthday 4 Seasons!

Mooo!

Apparently cows are in now.  It’s a thing that I never thought I’d actually see, I guess, but apparently it’s happened.  The closest to cow patterns I ever got in my *ahem* youth, was the cow print chupa chups that were all the rage.  Also, let me just go on a rant about Spice Girls chupa chups, because I was all over that scene.  Wait, how did I get here again?  I don’t know, but… mooo! – I’m a cow for now!

A Shot of Saki

It’s time for yet another event filled with gifts!  I never tire of the generosity, and I love opening presents.  The Saki event is a fun little event full of colourful things, and there’s a free gift (no group join required) at every booth.  Here’s what I’ve got on!

• FREE Shirt by Reed sized for Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Physique & Venus
• FREE Skirt by Angel Pink sized for Freya, Hourglass, Maitreya, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine & Venus
• FREE Glasses by No Cabide with matching earrings in the box

Don’t wait too long, I coudn’t find any info about when the event ends, so nip over there ASAP!

500L in Credit from Blueberry!

Oh hey, it’s me again!  I’ve got awesome news from Blueberry!  Let’s get down to the details!

Happy Birthday!

We’re at 9 years of Blueberry goodness, and to celebrate, there’s lots going on!  For the next 5 days the whole store is 50% off!  Yessss!  Oh but wait, that’s not the super exciting part – you’ll find that if you join the Blueberry group for 20L, you’ll find a gift card for 500L of store credit in group notices!  Woohoo!  I picked up all sorts with my gift, including the pants and top I’ve got on that only set me back 125L on that credit each.  You’ll want to try your best to get in in the next 5 days to be able to get the 50% off.  If you can’t get in to the main location, you can also cam shop from HERE.  Oh, and be careful, you have two weeks to use the store credit from the moment the card is activated, so be sure you’re honed in on exactly what your heart desires.

Wrapping up the Weekend

Ok since I missed so much of my weekend sleeping (hey, a girl has got to get her beauty rest now and then, right?) I’m making up for it with a bit of fun.  I want to head out into the world and just experience SL’s madness in all it’s glory.  Who doesn’t like a smattering of bright colours, funny drinks, a dance or two…and of course, freebies!

You’re so Vain

The latest round of Vanity has taken off, and you’ll find that there are two free group gifts for members of of the free-to-join group.  You’ll find two whole fatpacks of cute outfits for you to sink your teeth into by Scandalize.  I chose the Aelma outfit that comes with the top, skirt and shoes, and a rather extensive HUD to mix and match colours to your heart’s content.  Don’t wait too long, this round of Vanity is only running until May 25th.

Sizes

• Kupra
• Legacy
• Maitreya
• Maitreya Petite

Bring on the madness!

On the Mend

Heya FabFree!  I’m feeling a bit under the weather the last few days, so I’ve been a bit quiet.  Though I’m coming around the bend of my ickiness, some cute group gifts will surely make me feel even better!

Dress it Up

There’s a new group gift over at Rosary!  This cute summery dress has been updated recently with some new sizes, so it may just be what you need for your summer wardrobe.  The Rosary group is currently 350L to Join, but you’ll get a new group gift really often and it’s always something fun!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Kupra
• Maitreya
• Legacy

Pink Time!

There’s also a new group gift over at Pink Cream Pie – these cool heels that snake pleasingly up your leg.  They come with an HUD to change to several different pretty colours, so you’re sure to find a hue you like.  The Pink Cream Pie group is 314L to join, which is totally worth it because you’ll get a new group gift every single month, and there are a few of them out in the store right now (you’ll find them upstairs in the VIP lounge!)

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Legacy
• Maitreya

Have a great weekend, FabFree!

Keeping Busy

There are swathes of time in SL where suddenly there’s a lot going on.  We seem to be heading into one of those chunks of time, where so many different events are celebrating anniversaries, and then deciding to spoil us all because of it!  I’m definitely not one to complain about that.

Happy Bday Cosmo!

It’s time to celebrate Cosmopolitan’s 9th anniversary!  This staple event always has something awesome to pick up, and this round is filled to the gills with free gifts.  To get them, join the free Cosmopolitan group, then click on all the little crates at each stall.  Here’s what I found:

• FREE Dress by Mondial sized for Legacy, Freya, Hourglass & Maitreya
• FREE Glasses by ZK store
• FREE Hair by Limerence in several pastel hues
• FREE Makeup from Poema with BOM layers, and Omega and Catwa appliers

This round of Cosmopolitan is running until May 15th!

Enjoy!
