Live Life in Full Bloom

Hello and Happy Saturday, Fabulous Readers!  As I wandered through the flower-strewn fields on the Bella’s Lullaby sim, I paused to soak up the sunshine and take in the moment.  During our hectic days, we sometimes forget that we all need time to restore and replenish our inner resources.  It’s amazing what a difference one small pause can make in your day.  I love that SL gives me the chance to hang out in all kinds of different relaxing environments!

Another Cutie For You

Gus and I are back with a second lucky board prize from Cute For You.  As I talked about in my post here, I spent an evening at the store, trying to score some free goodies on their lucky boards. Outfit #144 is my second win of the night, and I think probably my favorite.  It features an off-the-shoulder ruffle-trimmed crop top with dangling ties and long sleeves.  This blouse is just so feminine!  The free gift also includes coordinating button-front pants with a slim, curve-hugging fit.  Although I opted for pure white, the enclosed HUD allows you to select from 44 textures (both prints and solids) for the shirt, 20 solid colors for the pants, and 22 hues for the piping and string ties.  To add this versatile outfit to your inventory, you need to be a member of the Cute For You Group (99L$ join fee) and a little bit of luck for the first letter of your name to pop up on the board.  It’s well worth the wait!

Island Vibes

Hello there, Fabulous Readers!  Gus and I are back to share a couple of free group gifts with you on this Friday afternoon.  As much as I adore sales, I like free even better!

Pretty Polynesian Print

My first free giftie that I have to share is my top and skirt from the Travesty store.  The Polynesian top features a bold geometric print and a loose, cowl-style neckline.  With its sleeveless design and cropped length, it’s ideal for hot summer days.  The gift folder includes not one, but two versions of the skirt.  For my photo, I opted for the solid black ruffled skirt, which sits low on the hips and has a short, flirty hemline.  The other variation is a slit skirt in a coordinating geometric pattern that falls to about mid-thigh.  Both are super cute!  To add the Polynesian Group Gift to your inventory, you have to be a member of the Travesty group, and there is a 25L$ join fee.  Since you get three pieces of clothing in the gift, I think it’s a great deal!

Stand a Little Taller

To finish off my look, I opted to don the strappy Lilah sandals that I picked up as a free group gift over at Dead Doll.  Thank goodness that my avatar can walk like a boss in high heels in SL!  These babies boast slender ties with beads plus cute little heart-shaped decorations on the toe box.  The designer thoughtfully included a texture change HUD packed with 16 (yes, 16!) colors for the cord and beads, along with 3 options for the hearts.  With this generous fat pack, I can see the Lilah sandals becoming a summer staple in my wardrobe!  To scoop up the Lilah sandals for yourself, you do need to be a member of the Dead Dollz VIP group, and the join fee is a bit steep at 250L$ (but hello…. fat pack!).  Also, there are two group gifts up for grabs in the shop.  Speaking of the two group gifts, you should check out Crecre’s post here, where she beautifully models the other available gift at Dead Doll!

That’s a wrap for today, fabbies.  I’m off to walk Gus (like a boss!) in my new sandals.

Until next time,
