Back at It

A beach day, you say?  Well, don’t mind if we do!  It’s hot hot hot out, and so my counterpart, Oov, and I have decided to head off to the beach and stick our tootsies in some water.  Though, if we did this in RL it would be in Lake Ontario, which is often quite, quite cold.  So let’s put in a caveat that this is definitely not Lake Ontario.  As is denoted by the very pretty temple in the background.  Onward!

Hark, a Vagrant!

Vagrant and Zerkalo have just reopened their sim after a brief stint away.  That’s awesome news because there are lots of fun surprises.  Today, they’re starting a free hunt in the dilapidated city section of their new sim.  There’s no need to join a group to take part, and it’s all completely free.  Just look for the red roses lying around.  You’ll also be able to get a notecard with some hints when you land.  I picked up the top, shorts and backpack I’ve got on there, though there are also several very pretty decor items too.  This hunt is running until the 21st!

Sizes

• Freya
• Legacy
• Maitreya

For the Men

FabFree at Fifteen is coming to a close tomorrow, and we wanted to show you one of the items for men that are available.  I roped Oov in to model this top and shorts combo from Emerald Man that is just 15L.  Perfect for a walk along the beach!  Don’t delay, FabFree at Fiteen ends tomorrow, and though we’re sad to see it all go…maybe it will come back again!  What do you think?

Sizes

• Aesthetic
• Belleza
• Geralt

All the Luck

Well, our 2nd annual FabFree St. Patty’s Day Hunt is coming to a close, but you have a few hours left to collect all the prizes you haven’t picked up quite yet before they disappear forever.   My partner Oov and I went for a bit of a wander, picking up the last few gifts that eluded us as the month progressed.  We’re totally ready for any St. Patrick’s Day themed events that will come our way…or if we’re feeling particularly lucky!

A Few Stops Along the Way

We hunted for the FabFree rainbows in several different spots for this look, and it wasn’t too challenging (though that is coming from the person who organized the hunt…aka me).  Anyway, here’s what we put together:

• FREE dress by Amazing Creations sized for Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Maitreya, Physique, TMP, Venus & XXS – L
• FREE shorts by Amazing Creations sized for TMP, Slink, Gianni & S-L
• 5L shirt by Redangel sized for Aesthetic, David, DavidE, Geralt, Gianni, Jake, Legacy & Slink
• FREE head sitters by Drama Libre (he says  something when  you click on him!)

As mentioned, the FabFree St. Patty’s Day hunt is wrapping up (tomorrow is the last day!) so get your specs on and find those glowing neon rainbows.

Sending you all the luck!

Woah! Two Free Mesh Heads from LeLutka!

Ok FabFree, strap yourself in, because it’s time for another wild ride down the path of free mesh heads!  LeLutka are being super generous over the Holidays with not one, but TWO free, complete, mesh heads from their Evolution line!  Wow!  Read on, and I’ll tell you all about how to grab this amazing gift and what’s included.

Lilly & Alain

I roped in the lovely Oov to help me out with showing you both the male and female heads, and we were pretty intent on doing it all for free, to see if you really are getting this head for 0L or if you have to pay anything extra to make it work.  We are happy to report that both heads are good to go and come with everything you need to move forward in the realms of mesh.  I am really not someone who knows much about BOM (it’s just not my jam) but I found this was fairly easy to use and I put this look together with the skins, eyebrows, eyes, makeup, facial expressions etc that were included in the free pack.  When you really think about it, this is truly an amazing gift!  Oov was just as impressed with the male head and we were excited with the way it all turned out.

To get yours, join the Lelutka group for free and head to THIS LOCATION, and click on the sign.  I’ll admit, the sim is extremely busy and you may be fighting for a while to get in, but don’t fret – you’ve got until December 26th to get these wonderful gifts!

Also, though you can make your own shape using “edit my appearance”, and there is one included in the box, I headed over to Pout! to pick up the free gift shape they just put out for the Lilly head.  No group join required!

Thank you, LeLutka!

No Salvation

“Hell is empty and all the devils are here.” – William Shakespeare 

As we seem to be rapidly approaching my favorite holiday I was excited to see the new group gift at Caboodle. The Caboodle group gift is a short nun’s habit, which lends itself perfectly to creating a creepy demonic possession look. Inspired by the idea I added the new group gift tattoo by Letis, the Pumpkin Hunt gift by Blackstone at Swank, and some inexpensive Marketplace finds from Corvus, Mary, R.A.D. and Glow Up. I think this look would fit right in at just about any haunted house. Time to get terrifying!

Caboodle

Truly this nun’s habit group gift at Caboodle was the inspiration for creating my demonic nun look just in time for Halloween. The Caboodle group has a join fee of 100 linden. The habit can be repositioned, and sized. I wore it with a simple hair-base. Also, don’t forget to pick up the previous group gifts still available at Caboodle.

Letis

Letis put out this perfect-for-Halloween unisex spiderweb upper body tattoo as their latest group gift. The Letis group is free to join, so don’t miss out on this very well done tattoo.

Appliers/Layers Included: Omega Evolved, Maitreya, Slink, Legacy, Belleza, Signature, BOM Layers (35%,50%,75%100%)

Blackstone

I mentioned the Pumpkin Hunt happening at Swank in my recent post “Let Me Show You the Way.” The dress and horns I used for this look are from the Pumpkin Hunt gift by Blackstone. This gift includes a full look with a dress, horns, and a matching devil tail (not shown), as well as a HUD with several colors for the dress. You can pick this gift up for free at Swank. You’ll need the free Swank group tag, I’ll link that group below. This dress is fitted for Maitreya Lara only.

Swank Group – secondlife:///app/group/35fc648a-c80a-bd06-7b1c-0385c52e0fc1/about

Marketplace Finds

The gifts from Caboodle and Letis were a good start for this scary nun I’d imagined, the Marketplace was helpful for much of the rest.

Corvus – No possessed being would be complete without darkened circles around the eyes. I picked up the Corvus Demon Eyeshadow BOM layer for 30 linden on the Marketplace.

Mary – I also found a Halloween gift by Mary from 2019 on the Marketplace. The little goth cross tattoo comes in an Omega applier and is 1 linden on the Marketplace.

Glow Up – For some added gore I picked up a little nose-bleed drip by Glow Up on the Marketplace for free. It comes in a BOM layer only.

R.A.D. – Finally, the bloody sewn-shut lips are a Marketplace dollarbie by R.A.D. This gory costume essential comes in BOM layers and an Omega applier.

Alright all you creeps and ghouls, I really hope you enjoy these freaky fun freebies and cheapies. It was a lot of fun putting this super creepy look together for Halloween. Have fun out there!

Julian

No, I’m not changing my name. I’m rather pleased with the one I have… well, actually I have three names. But that’s a story for another time. The Julian I am referring to is the name of the smashing new shirt I’m wearing today.

Details

As I said, this is ‘Julian’ from Finer Threads and you can add it to your closet for free. Yes, free. This is the free gift from Finer Threads at Uber. Ms. Prudence has already shown some of the free gift at Uber and Julianna came back from the event staggering under the weight of all the gifts she had collected. I had little hope for a mens gift, yet happily, here we are and it’s a very fine gift indeed.  If the charcoal color I chose isn’t your taste, Julian comes with a HUD for eight colors and as many other embroidery details.

Sizes Included

• Belleza Jake
• Signature – Gianni

Uber runs until September 22. For easy shopping, this is the Cam Shopping LM

Deep Thoughts

There’s one thing that I am supremely grateful for in Second Life.  Well, I mean…there are lots of things I am grateful for at the moment (hello germ-free socializing!) but today’s is a little frivolous.  The ability to wear a white bikini with no fear of see-through mishaps is kinda high on my list at the moment.  Yeah, I know…what a weird thing to think about, Aline… but I’ve got a lot of thinking time on my hands these days!

Dive In

There’s a fun, free gift courtesy of Vinyl for you to pick up over at the Signature mainstore.  This patterned bikini will have you ready for beach-bound buffoonery in no time at all.  There’s no need to join a group here, just head on over to Signature and you’ll find this bikini in the Alice Body section of the store!  Thank you to our loyal reader Astera for pointing me in this direction!

Day Off

Day off for Alice

That sneaky little girl Alice conned me into painting some roses, once I agreed to take her paintbrush, a rabbit appeared quickly rushing her to do something by whispering in her ear.  I watched her pop something into her mouth and she quickly shrank to the tiniest little girl I’ve ever seen! I realized I may have picked the short stick on this one…

INKer  Esareme Girl Tattoo has a few tattoos up for L$10 and the one I’m wearing has a vintage pinup girl vibe going on. The date the promotional price is unclear so I would go take a look at them as soon as possible to snag them all! The item comes with Dark, Medium, and Light options so you can get a great mix of how new or old you want the tattoo to look!

Options for Esareme Girl Tattoo

Demons & Goddesses

What do you get when a demon and a goddess walk into an evening garden party?  Who knows, but I can tell you that my good friend RJ and I had an excellent time dancing, eating and casting spells.  Isn’t that what everyone does at mystical night garden parties?

MIIX it up

The MIIX event is back with another round this month, and there’s another fun free hunt!  If you join the Hype events group for free, you can hunt down all the little ancient Egyptian urns because they contain free gifts for both guys and gals!  I got my dress (sized for Maitreya, Belleza and Slink), necklace and sandals there (though there are also tattoos and bracelets…) and RJ got his shirt, tank top (sized for Gianni, Geralt, Jake and Slink) and sandals there too!  You’ll have a blast searching out the gifts, because I know I sure did!

Head on over to the MIIX event before July 20th when it all goes poof!

Tie Dye

Hello FabFree. No you aren’t hallucinating… we have two men’s wear posts… in a row! Between all the Access gifts Blue showed you and the huge All the Stuff Hunt, it’s a good day to be a guy on the Grid.

Tie Dye for

The casual shirt I’m sporting is from ZFG for Him. It may seem like a simple gift but the build is really solid. The details are perfect even zoomed in. You also get a HUD to pick one of six tie dye colors and patterns. Just a little hunting and it’s yours.

Sizes Included

• Belleza Jake
• Legacy
• Signature – Gianni
• SLink

Mix and Match

My next stop on the All the Stuff Hunt was Mishmash Fusion. This is one designer that always provides good “stuff” and this time is no different. Mishmash Fusion has actually put out a complete set of jeans and a tee shirt for us. I picked the jeans to show for two reasons… one, I really like the tie dye shirt and two… anyone can do jeans. Right? Welll, no. Jeans are one of those things you don’t notice unless it’s bad. These jeans from Mishmash Fusion are some of the best on the Grid. The color is right and the details are solid. These are absolutely staying in my closet.

Road Trip to Nowhere in Particular

Hello hello Fab Free, I hope you’re all surviving first life well enough. As for Second Life, Blue and I decided to throw a few things in a bag and jump in the car for a much-needed getaway. Like most of us, we decided we could use a little change of scenery. This little diner was an impromptu stop along the way on our road trip to nowhere in particular. We got out stretch our legs, take in some scenery, grab a bite to eat, and of course take a few photos. After all, is it really a vacation if you don’t have a few social media worthy photos? Hah, just kidding.

The pose we used for this snapshot is a free Stay at Home Club gift from The Owl. This free couples pose by The Owl comes with pose balls and individual pose animations. No group is needed for the Stay at Home Club gifts. My t-shirt is a free Stay at Home Club gift as well. I picked it up at Sass. The over-sized casual tee by Sass says “Actually, I can.” and comes in the color shown, and has a matching pair of panties included. The last of the Stay at Home Club gifts for this post is a set of eyes Blue is wearing from Madame Noir, which are of course free. Blue’s short-sleeve button-down shirt is also a free gift. It comes from Ascend and is free for all SLF&O group members. The men’s short from Ascend comes in the color and print shown, and requires the free-to-join SL Frees & Offers group tag.
