Last week, Calgon showed you one of the guys items you can pick up at The *Inspirations* Beach Blanket at The Beach Party (shown here), and today I am showing you just a little taste of the cool stuff you will find for ladies! The dress in the photo is called Call of the Wild ~ Leopard NRLV and you can find this item priced at just 10L. This dress isn’t just rawry and hawt, it’s strip scripted too, so you can have a little help getting out of it with a click of a mouse!
If you are a member of the Glitterati by Sapphire inworld group, make sure you stop in and pick up May’s group gift! The non-mesh, twirly, chocolate swirly dress shown in the photo is the latest of the several years worth of free group gifts available. The group is 50L to join. Also take note of the group specials!
After being stranded on my land for hours today, unable to teleport out (thanks Firestorm!), I decided to do a little marketplace shopping and pick up a message in a bottle kit! I sent out an SOS to the world, and I hope that someone gets my, I hope that someone gets my, I hope that someone gets my.. Message in a bottle!
This bottle btw.. is very cute, you can send a real message and place it out for someone special – just 10L on marketplace!
I had been to Collabor88 earlier on a mission to find the Glam Affair skins that Serena showed earlier. Such lovely skins at a wonderful price, I picked up Trending 2 for 188L, athough I may have to go back and pick up the other two as well.. and then kick myself for not grabbing the fatpack in the first place.
While I was down there at Collabor88, I noticed that they have a wonderful group gift available. The group is free to join, and after you have joined you can pick up The Sea Hole Cassia Glitter Mini Dresses in a fatpack of colours. I am wearing the cafe shade. D!va also has their Marie hair in two versions set out for free at their display in two versions, including a hud that allows you to change the length of the hair and it comes in a fatpack of colours.
* Jumps up and down and thinks this is a bazillion times better than a crappy wax chocolate advent calendar! *
Paper.doll has placed out an advent calendar for it’s group members (200L to join), and every day until Christmas, there will be a new gift added to the calendar. I found it today, and was able to pick up day 1, 2 & 3 (which is today). Below I am wearing the partial mesh Sweater Dress in Cranberry (day 3), along with the mesh Relaxed Scarf in Green Plaid (day 2). Day 1 is an adorable printed shirt that I can’t wait to try on!
The long Steph Hair with the angled bangs is today’s (day 15) advent gift at Alice Project, available in several holiday streaked colours and sizes.
“Weeee! Look what I found in the pumpkin patch – A Calgon Foxdale!! “. He is looking a little nervous about my wheel barrow driving capabilities isn’t he… lol!
What fun this pose was to work with! I picked up this wheelbarrow pose from Sparrow Tree Designs for 5L as it is their Autumn Hunt Prize! I am working my way through the entire hunt and found so many wonderful prizes that I thought I would show you a selection of them over the next few days so keep your eyes peeled for more to come. There are about 28 participating designers with Autumn themed gifts.
October 20th – November 4th * Hunt Icon – Cornacopia * 5L Per Item
The white denim shirt Cal is wearing is a free group gift from Gabriel which you can find in the Group Gifts area where there are a ton of gifts for both men and women. The group is free to join! He has paired them up with a pair of Ripped Jeans from Dirty Hands by Sartoria which are now on sale for 50L along with the entire rest of the store inworld and on Marketplace.
The dress I am wearing in this post is also a TA hunt prize and you can find this supa sexay partial mesh Wiggle Dress at Sassy! I searched high and low for a matching necklace for this dress, and remembered a tip from FabFree Reader,Petuniia that Virtual Impressions has some gorgeous free jewelry! I TPed my way down there and found the Bead Shower Necklace in Amber set out as a freebie!
The pose used in this second photo is a The Autumn Hunt prize as well, you can find this fantastic pose in a pack of five hiding in the TAE hunt icon at -no wow-.
Shhhhhhh don’t tell Sascha…but I am previewing her November Member Group Gift…it is 50L to join her group, Sascha’s Designs…but she does that to keep the spammers out AND she makes it worth your lindens to join!! Once you become a member you have access to an amazing array of previous monthly group gifts. Sascha is also very generous with her members…with impromptu sales and 60L weekends…not to mention you usually get several skirt & top options in each dress you buy along with whatever accessories she has created for that gown/outfit (yes she does create more than just those gorgeous gowns). This monthly gown comes with the FrubbelDubbel (hey I didn’t name it!) skirt you see and you will also have the options to purchase the extra skirt styles. Trust me…they are worth it!
I scored more fabulously free items with two more group gifts!! The adorable Norma hair in Ruby is from D!va and it comes with a Bat Wing option…just in time for that haunting holiday coming just around the corner. Norma is a group member gift but the group is free to join AND membership gives you access to lots of more pretty previous member group gifts….that is just all kinds of awesome. The gorgeous peach and white diamond necklace is part of the Romance Set from Virtual Impressions (previous group gift/free to join)…Chrissy designs wonderful jewelry and she generously puts one of her designs out for her members to grab every month. In addition to the monthly group gift…Virtual Impressions features other items at fabulous sale prices throughout the month.
My oh-so-enchanting pose is from aDORKable Poses. It isn’t free (200L)…BUT you get four beautiful poses and the petals to wear for taking equally enchanting pictures of yourself in your Sascha’s gowns. When you purchase your aDORKable poses at the inworld store you automatically bank 10% of the purchase price, as store credit, to put toward future store purchases….group membership NOT required! I purchased some of my poses at her Marketplace store and had a few minor issues that ADORKable graciously and promptly rectified.
My shoes, skin, eyes and eyelashes were also not free but I shall list the details below.
The pics were shot on location at the Virtual Impressions landing point.
So what are you waiting for…go grab these fantastic freebies and get all gussied up…you deserve it <3<3
The Details
Free!!!
Norma Hair (Ruby with Bat Wing attachment option): D!va (member gift/free to join) *Be sure to read he group notices for where to pick up the Norma Hair…it isn’t at her Main Store http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/CalanDiva/148/157/25
A few months ago I joined the NC Paris Group (free to join) the group gifts are generous, from jewelry to dresses, and each item is well made. I love that I can pick up a nice piece of jewelry to mix and match with my everyday as well as elegant looks…for FREE!! Something about this simple black skeleton dress made me want to do more with it than make it another Halloween outfit…so I threw on the bronze skeleton cuff, matching earrings, fine bangles and clutch (ALL free at NC Paris)…called Kyle and asked him to meet me for a Tango (10L pose from [MotivAction] Poses & mesh clothing).
I topped the look off with the fabulously tousled *Anita* hair from .:EMO-tions:. (Free). The gorgeous Samhain necklace, with matching earrings (not worn) from ::CHOP ZUEY COUTURE:: is a group gift (350L join fee…but the creator is VERY generous with giving their members free gifts). I scraped my pennies together to join this group but it is worth EVERY linden!!
In this close-up you will see the clutch…unfortunately, the pic doesn’t do it justice. This clutch is free to the members of NC Paris Group (free to join) and matches perfectly with the skeleton dress, earrings and cuff. It is studded with diamonds on the front and the clasp is a gorgeously detailed bronze skull with a crown and diamond set eyes.
Skull Cuff & Earrings: NC Paris Fantasy Jawels Cuff & Earrings (Free to group)http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/NCparis%20Fashion%20Region/55/80/25
This HAWT Leather Milan Dress made by Sassy! that is currently being featured at The Black Only Fashion Event until the end of the month (195L) inspired me to go a little dark and fangy, so I picked up some free items and nearly free items to accessorize it with and headed down to The Haunted Mountain of Marathon Caye for sight see-ing and photos when I was distracted by a delicious looking snack!
The Itsy Bitsy Spider Necklace and Earring Set can be found at Chop Zuey as a free gift for all and my long black nails are a free subscribo gift at Virtual Insanity. The vampire fangs can be purchased on Marketplace for 5L in Pennywise Bracula’s store.
The skin I am in today is a Belleza gift that was given out last December. I chose to wear it today because of the gorgeous red lips – and it’s still available as a free group gift! It has been a long time since I pulled out Xmas Gift Lily, and I am not sure why, because it really is a stunning skin. The Belleza group is 250L if you are not already a member and there are several skins available in the gift pack.
Thank you to Cranston for allowing me to use him in the photo – he was so naturally perched up there, and it was perfect! No Cranstons were harmed in the making of this blog post.
The Where Is The Concert Hunt runs from January 20th to February 3rd and has tons of big name designers participating with fabulous gifts! Each hunt prize is absolutely free and the icon to search for during this hunt is a concert ticket. It’s a fair size, so it’s not too difficult.
In this post, I am displaying the hunt prize from Sassy! called Rock Me that includes the purple cropped sweater, sheer tank and black pants. The side pony tail I am wearing for hair is made by Alice Project. Zee – Naturals Lite, which was inspired by YouTube sensation, Zee Avi (KokoKaina), is the hunt prize you will find upon locating the concert ticket at Alice Project. This is a mesh product, so you will need a compatible viewer to see it correctly.
Sticky Fingers has a new gift out for everyone! The Top & Panty Set above can be picked up without a group membership. Below you will see the My Red Heart Dress which is Sticky Fingers latest group gift. The group is 100L to join, but I have been loving the gifts!! Worth it in my opinion!
I showed you the Pretty Please hair from Shag yesterday that was given out to subscribo members, however I got a fantastic picture of the bow in the back today that I couldn’t quite seem to capture last time I showed it, so take note of that below…
Hmm you were checking out the hair right? O.o lol Yeah, me too.
