Personal Pool Party

Pool party!  How lovely would it be to have a little heart-shaped pool one could laze about in whenever one wanted?  I’d happily sit on the edge, trailing my fingers into cool water on warm days, and dreaming of all sorts of beauteous and salacious things!

Back to FLF

I’m back at it with the Fifty Linden Fridays Birthday Bash.  There’s so much to be had and show that I’m happily very slowly sorting through my acquisitions.  Today I’m wearing a mix of free and paid items.  The free items can be acquired by joining the FLF group for free and clicking on the cacti at each booth.  Every other lovely item at the event is just 50L, so there’s plenty of fun to be had.  Here’s what I’m wearing today:

• FREE dress by Paper + Antler sized for Ebody, Kupra, Maitreya, Legacy, Legacy Perky
• 50L Hair by Wasabi
• 50L Glasses by The Horror!

The FLF Birthday Bash runs until September 2nd, so you’ve still got plenty of time!

Pool Party

There’s a new group gift at Astralia!  This sweet little pool is so adorable, I just had to have it.  It comes with an HUD to change up the colour on every part of the pool so it can blend in (or stand out) in your garden.  It comes with both PG and Adult animations.  To get yours, simply join the Astralia group for 149L and click on the vendor in the group gift area.  Quite lovely indeed!

Make a splash!

Groovin’ on a Sunday Afternoon

It’s another lazy Sunday so this is a quick post. After  you spend a couple of hours dancing and drinking you need a mellow day to recover. I tripped on over to Commune Utopia, found a relaxing spot and even got a free drink. Score! I’m not quite sure what this drink is but I’m thinking it’s a Cosmopolitan. Doesn’t matter, I’ll drink to any round!

Speaking of Cosmopolitans . . .

The latest round of Cosmopolitan opened on August 8th and will run until August 20th. If my memory serves me correctly the first event group I joined in SL was the Cosmopolitan group. The group is free to join and I highly recommend that you join and keep this one! There is usually at least one group gift per month and the birthday/anniversary and holiday presents are to die for!

My outfit is the Cosmopolitan group gift from Yasum. The Summer Boho top and pants are free for members of the group. This gift outfit is so well done. You know I love sparkly things and this exceptionally well textured outfit fits the bill. My brain has been telling me how beautiful this would be in RL. You get the top, jeans, and a belt to complete your look. It’s sized for Legacy & Maitreya bodies.

Time for more chillin’

Peace & luv,

Electric Avenue

What is there to say about electric blue?  Well, to me it’s got that halfway between melancholy and optimism.  How, you ask?  Well, because either you’re getting moody and blue, orrrr you’re about to board a space shuttle and dazzle the heavens with your out-of-the box fashion sense.  Or is that just me?  Probably.

Eternally Lucky

There are some brand new lucky boards at Eternus!  No need to join a group to take part, just wait for your letter to come  up.  I picked up the Alexa top (ooh, shiny!) and the Deborah ripped jeans to go with.  Completely free, yay!  There are some other lovely prizes too while you’re at it, including some dresses and blouses and other such pretty things.  Well worth a visit!

Sizes

• Kupra
• Kups

• Legacy
• Perky

• Reborn

I’m going with the optimistic vibe.

Other Freebie Groups’ Gifts

There are a number of additional free gifts at Vips Creations, if you join various freebie groups posted near their VIP group gift. Below is a list of these groups’ gifts currently available with information about the groups. Most of these groups are free to join, but some of them have a small join fee.

Manic Pixie Dream Girl

Do you know what a manic pixie dream girl is?  Apparently, she’s the type of girl with brightly coloured hair, whimsical attire and a general tendency to teach protagonists important life lessons.  Ok, so she’s a bit of a movie trope, but that doesn’t mean you can’t aspire to the whole aesthetic a bit, right?  Well, that’s what I’m sorta going for today, with a little more emphasis on the pixie side of things!

50!

The FLF Birthday Bash kicked off yesterday, and I promised I’d show you some of the items that are for sale for just 50L as well.  This is a super great event, from the deals, to the free gifts to the sim design.  It’s awesome.  Anywhos, here’s what I’ve put together today:

• 50L top and 50L skirt by Entice sized for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya & Maitreya Petite
• 50L wings by LuluB! in several different lovely colours
• 50L bag by C’est la Vie
• 50L Nails by Wareta sized for Reborn, Kupra, Legacy & Maitreya

The FLF Birthday Bash is running until September 2nd, so you have lots of time if you can’t get in yet.  It’s popular, but don’t despair…you’ll get in!

The Girl In The Dress

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Belle Epoque‘s Summer Hunt is still going on!

Listen, you know I don’t hunt. But the prizes are soooo pretty and I knew they’d be flawless because, well, it’s Belle Epoque. I looked at the hunt key and thought, “gosh I’d really love to photograph that gorgeous teal gown,” I turned a single corner in the store, picked up a single cute little kitty statue, and…I got the very gown that I had coveted! Friends, believe me when I tell you that I stopped hunting immediately and ran gleefully home with my bounty. True story.

Anyway, the prizes are 10L each, you’re looking for a little cat, there’s a hunt key when you first walk in so you can see aaaaaaaall the prizes, and the whole thing lasts till August 31st.

Drama

Happy Friday FabFree!  I’m feeling all sorts of theatrical today in my latest look.  I’ve most likely said it a million times, but one of my favourite things to do in SL is head to an event that has gifts, and then try and style a look based on what I find.  Let me tells ya… today’s event was a doozy to put together because there are SOOOOO many nice free things! I couldn’t decide! Yay!

Happy Birthday FLF!

Fifty Linden Fridays are celebrating 13 years on the grid of awesome 50L goodies!  I’m excited to cover this event – 50L items AND free gifts?  Come on, how does it get better?  To get the gifts for this one, just join the Fifty Linden Fridays group for free, then click on the cacti at each stall.  I’ll start off the coverage with some of the freebies, but I’ll also show off some 50L stuff later today.  Love it!  Here’s what I’ve got on:

• FREE dress by Imbue sized for Reborn, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya & Perky
• FREE shoes by Vanilla Bae sized for Reborn, Kupra, Legacy & Maitreya
• FREE mask by Indigo (so cool, right?)

It’s going to be busy for the next little bit, but don’t fret- The Fifty Linden Fridays Birthday Bash is running until September 2nd!

 

Oh and…here’s a closeup of the facepiece because UGH, so good.

Happy shopping!

Swimming with the Kitties

Woohoo! Another weekend is here. A friend dragged me to this sunny place with promises of a picnic and a cool lake for swimming. Are we lost?? We’ve been walking for what seems like forever. I forgot my compass so I’m trying to get a fix on the sun to figure out something to get us out of here.

Moohing Meowing Doves

Ha! Bet you saw the title and are wondering what I’m writing about. It’s all about gifts from Mooh! and The Free Dove Caring Hands Hunt featuring Kittycats.

I love this outfit! It’s the latest group gift at Mooh! (free gift for Mooh! group/$100L join fee). Rylee consists of the ruffled swimsuit, sunglasses, floppy hat and a bag filled with things you’d bring to the beach. As is the norm with Mooh!‘s creations a color/texture change hud is included. It is purrfect for a day at the seashore. More about that in a bit.

Sizes

• Altamura
• Belleza Isis & Freya
• Ebody Curvy & Reborn
• Erika
• Legacy & Perky
• Maitreya & Petite
• SLink Hourglass
• Tonic Fine, Curvy, & Minimizer

Do Kittycats Like to Swim?

Apparently they do! Kittycats has teamed up with The Free Dove for the August Caring Hands Hunt. If you’re a cat lover you probably already know about the Kittycats store. For this hunt there are ten specially designed “Swimmer Cats Shoulder Pets”. I’ve included the hunt gift list below.

These are not your regular shoulder pets. Instead each cat is equipped with mask and snorkel as well as swim fins. Each cat is chasing a sea critter as it swims around you. Completely adorable!! You get a male and a female of each coat.

You do have to join The free Free Dove group to participate. Find Group Joiners everywhere around The Free Dove building. Or copy & paste this key in your local / nearby chat: secondlife:///app/group/2b6ea148-253e-325d-bf8b-f7eeb8c25dae/about. There are 5 items to find at The Free Dove and another 5 at Kittycats.

See you at the swimming hole!
