Took a stroll through the MIIX Event. If you haven’t been there yet, it is their one year anniversary and it is chock full of free (a couple fall in the *nearly* free category) gifties for the grabbing! I found this super cute outfit from Impacts there. It comes with a HUD that gives you10 textures for the shorts and 14 texture choices for the top. It fits:
Classic
Freya
Isis
Venus
Legacy
Maitreya
Hourglass

Just join the event group (free to join!) and scoop up the free gifts!
The cute pose comes from Chloe Poses. I found it to be perfect for the beach!
Watch for my next post when I have some cute Spring hunt goodies for you!!
Ok, it’s officially Fall now, y’all! It’s the season of warm colours, falling leaves, and so many lovely delights. I love decorating for the Autumn, as is evidenced by all the fall decor I found in my inventory! Are you ready to collect some more for your own pile of decorations? Let’s do it!
House Proud
Ok, so Trompe L’Oeil is back to offering an awesome freegifts in the spirit of Stay at Home, and I couldn’t be more excited. This amazing house can be yours for free, no need to join a group! Just head over to the Trompe L’Oeil mainstore, and buy the house for 0L. You’ll also find some lovely chairs there too (you can just see it on the porch in my photo), which are great for indoor or outdoor settings. So awesome! Now, I’m not sure exactly how long this house will be available as the Stay at Home club is closing in just 4 days. However, Trompe L’Oeil’s Flickr account tells me it will be out for a few weeks. Go get it!
Welcome Fall!
The pretty Autumn-themed letter blocks you see in front of the house are the latest group gift at Kraftwork. They are just so lovely! You can spell out anything you like with these blocks, as there are letters, numbers, symbols and even just plain blocks in wood or with the wreath design. What a cool gift! The Kraftwork group is freeto join, and you’ll find plenty of group gifts on their wall. Have fun!
Time for a PSL, methinks!

I decided that I was going to do some spring cleaning, maybe change my clothes over to the ‘warm weather’ selection (a brave choice I know) but I did briefly glimpse some sun a few days ago. As I was cleaning out my closet this lovely set fell right on my face, well let me tell you that is a sign! So a quick change and straight onto the balcony to enjoy the warmth for as long as it lasts.

Hello Fabulouses! I hope your week is off to a wonderful start. It might look like Ripley and I are feeling all dark and brooding, but actually we enjoyed a bright sunny day in RL. We’re here to share a couple of Fabulous Finds with you that we think you’ll really enjoy.
I’m Feeling a Bit Sassy…
It must be this new free Black Dress that I picked up over at the Sass store. With a plunging neckline and two peek-a-boo slits in the skirt, it certainly is a flirty little number. I love the way this frock hugs your curves and leaves your back tantalizingly bare. You can’t really see them from my photo, but there are 3 little buttons that gleam in the light which add visual interest to the bodice. The black and gray striped skirt section and over all dark color scheme made me think of a spooky, mysterious vibe, so Ripley and I decided to visit an eerie forest for our photo. Although the weather might be getting more nippy outside, fortunately in SL, I don’t need to worry about catching a chill in this saucy mini dress. To pick up a copy for your SL wardrobe, you need to be a member of the Sass group, and there is a small 10 Linden dollar join fee, but I think this dress is well worth the investment!
Mesh Body Compatibility:
Belleza Freya
Maitreya
Slink Hourglass
These Boots
As much as I love my new dress, I *adore* the Petra Boots from Lindy Modern and Retro Shoes that I am wearing! With a high heel design, detailed lacing and silver accents, these boots are great to wear with a dressier outfit, but also flexible enough to coordinate with a more casual style. The white stitching really pops against the black leather background. The folder includes versions for classic avatars (with a shoe base, alpha layer and a handy resizer for the perfect fit) as well as for Maitreya and Slink Hourglass. All I had to do to add this versatile pair of footwear to my closet was to locate the collection of pillar candles hidden in the shop (and by *I*, I meant Ripley), pay the teensy 1L price and scurry home to try them on. The Dark and Brooding Hunt runs until September 30th and features a gothic, vampire theme, which is perfect for the upcoming Halloween holiday.
Hello there Fabulouses! This little birdie told Ripley and I about a free group gift from Pour Toujours. When we arrived at the shop, we were pleasantly surprised to find not one, but five gifts for various groups on display. This super sweet crop top is my absolute favorite out of all the goodies on the wall.
Forever Summer
Although we might be saying good bye to the carefree days of summer in real life, in Second Life, you can make your own seasons. That being said, I was happy to discover a warm weather shirt which is sure to become a wardrobe fave of mine. The Trexy top features an intricately fringed, cropped hem as well as a neckline that dips daringly low. Although I opted for a bobbed hairstyle, you might want to wear long locks for extra coverage of the girls in front. It’s kind of difficult to see in my photo, but this shirt has an asymmetrical style with one slitted, half sleeve on the left and a sleeveless tank style arm on the right, which lends the outfit a funky, free flowing vibe. The folder includes a texture change HUD with three color options – white, red and black. To add this flirty little number to your SL closet, you need to be a member of the SL Frees and Offers Group, but since there is no fee to join, you can scoop up this gift completely for free!

Hello Fabulouses! I hope you are as ready as I am for some fall colors. Today, Ripley and I are bringing you a little slice of fall foliage as we share a couple of budget friendly Fabulous Finds. I hope you like them! Before I get into the details, if you are looking for a beautifully decorated autumn landscape, I’d highly recommend a visit to the Cherishville sim. The puster and I really enjoyed the oranges, browns and other fall colors when we were there. They provided a wonderful contrast for the dark hues of my outfit.
A Great Hat Speaks for Itself
First up, my cheeky cap is a gift from the Inventory Trends store. With a darling bow and just enough of a brim to shield your eyes from the sun, the Velma hat adds a functional and cute finishing touch to my ensemble. Best of all, I picked it up for free, just by being a member of the Third Life Group. The group has no join fee, so I didn’t have to pay a single Linden dollar for my newest fashion accessory. Although the hat cannot be resized, I was able to move it around on my head and I resized my hair underneath to get the fit I was looking for. The thoughtful designer tucked a HUD inside with three texture options so you can coordinate with different color schemes. In addition to the black I am sporting, you could also choose red or a dark brown. While you’re in the shop, you might want to try picking up one of the fourteen other gifts set out on the wall for members of various groups. I’ve included a close up photo below so you can get a better look at Velma.
There’s Something Sexy…
about a girl with an attitude and a pair of leather pants. The mesh black leather pants from the Bang Bang shop on the Marketplace pick up where Velma left off in the attitude department. With a soft sheen, zippered pockets and a skin tight fit, you will feel super skinny, sexy and toasty warm when you wear this wardrobe essential. No chilly autumn breeze will work its way through these pants! Best of all, with a price tag of a mere 10 Linden dollars, you’ll hardly notice the difference in your bank account balance after your purchase. The folder includes versions for mesh as well as classic avatars, so there is something for everyone tucked inside.

Hello there, Fabulous Readers! I hope your week is off to a fantastic start. Ripley and I paid a visit to one of our favorite shops today and picked up this lovely belted frock in a vibrant color (which happens to be my go-to shade to wear). Best of all, it was completely free!
A Quiet Country Walk With My Pal
With its long skirt and sleeves, and high neckline, the Frill Sleeve Pleated Dress from S@bbia had me thinking of leisurely walks enjoying the crisp autumn air. Since it has been over 110 degrees around my neck of the woods lately, I really, really am longing for the respite of fall! Someday soon, it will come, right? I just love the diamond patterned, lace texture on the fabric of this sweet dress and the way the belt is loosely knotted around my waistline. My first thought for how to style it was to make my outfit a little bit country with cowgirl boots and a hat, but I spotted these cute Asymmetric Sandals in S@bbia, and decided to opt for slightly dressier instead. Either way you go, this frock creates a charming look. The folder includes just one size as well as an alpha layer for classic avatars, but I think it will work well with various mesh body types. To add this versatile dress to your inventory, you need to be a member of the S@bbia group, but since there is no join fee, you can pick up a copy without spending a single Linden dollar! While you are at the store, you can try your luck on the Guess and Win board and check to see if your letter appears on one of the Lucky Boards. If you bring along your own good luck charm, you just might walk away with more than one addition to your wardrobe. I know I did 🙂
What’s Included:
Mesh Dress (one size)
Alpha layer for classic avatars

Hello Fabulouses! I hope your week is going well. Ripley and I are popping in quickly to share a darling outfit that I picked up as a free group gift. With a floral crop top and sleek shorts, this outfit will have you ready for a weekend adventure, without putting even so much as a tiny dent in your budget.
Pretty Floral Print
Lalie from WellMade has lots of fine details such as the semi transparent generous cuffs, the ruffled edge on the hem and coordinating ties dangling down on the sides of the shorts. While I opted for a grayish botanical print and black shorts, with the enclosed HUD, you have three other options for the top and bottom that you can switch up and combine to your heart’s content. Since each piece is worn separately, you can mix and match with other items already in your inventory for added versatility. Best of all, since the WellMade group has no join fee, you can add this summery number to your inventory completely for free!

Hello Fabulouses! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Ripley and I roamed the grid and discovered a free complete outfit that we think you’ll enjoy. It comes from a new-to-me store and I think its a fun casual look just right for a Sunday evening.
Are You Feeling Lucky?
Over at the Mangula shop, there are a 24 lucky boards that require no group membership. All you have to do is wait for your letter appear and you can pick up the outfit for free. This adorable Laila set is one of the items you can win if your luck holds out. The folder includes two top styles and a skirt. I just love the off the shoulder design and soft blush pink color of the shirt. The fabric texture of the blouse is really well done and features a checked pattern of delicate holes in the sleeves and body of the top. The gift includes the bodysuit version of the top, but a separate blouse is included as well. The skirt’s asymmetrical hemline ends with a torn denim edge that lends a casual flair to the outfit. Twin butterflies grace its back pockets. The folder includes versions for several mesh body avatars. Best of all, it is completely free. The only thing you will have to invest is a bit of time while you wait for your letter to appear. If you don’t have a lucky dog like the pupster, you might want to bring along a trusty four leaf clover or lucky penny with you. 🙂
