Siren of the Sea

Siren of the Sea 2

Happy Friday, Fabulouses!  After reading about the Flawless Sim’s Adventures in Babysitting, Ripley and I decided to give it a go.  This quest casts you in the role of a babysitter for two adventurous twins who wander off while shopping.  Your task is to try to locate the missing girls, and it seems that you are always just one step behind the troublesome duo.  During the quest, you wear a special HUD and visit 11 different stores on the sim, obtaining clues along the way.  When you successfully complete the mission, you are rewarded with 12 free gifts, one from each of the stores participating in the event, plus a bonus prize.  The only catch is that you have to complete the entire quest to receive the gifts.  It really wasn’t that hard…….we didn’t even need to rely on Ripley’s amazing nose.  The clues at each location gave pretty clear hints about where to go next.  You can pause the quest at any time, so you don’t have to complete it all in one sitting.

Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue

Normally, I sport a pair of deep chocolate eyes, but one of the free gifts in this hunt is a pair of startlingly blue peepers from Sinful Curves.  These eyes come in mesh as well as the classic version and have 3 variations of the white part of the eye to choose from:  average, bloodshot and bright.  I think they are simply stunning, with their clear, sparkling brilliance.   The pale hue lent a mysterious air to my magical mermaid.  ♫♪ Tune ♬ ♪

Always Be Yourself, Unless You Can Be a Mermaid…Then Always Be a Mermaid

At TempT, the pupster and I explored a magical underwater shop filled with fantastic skins and all things mer.  The free prize from this watery store was a deep, emerald green tail, which set the theme of my photo.  With a realistic looking scaly texture and a sweeping tail fin, you will be ready to play the role of siren, and lure sailors with your enchanting voice and music.  Although I don’t see myself dressing often as a mermaid, this outfit was definitely a fun way to change things up!

More Prizes in Our Next Post

Ripley and I will return soon with more prizes from our adventure in babysitting.  Until my next post, happy shopping questing!

Winter Kissed

Snapshot_004
Hi there Fabulouses! I was meaning to get this post up yesterday, but Monday got the best of me… so I’m sneaking on to show you a couple of things over my lunch hour today.

Put on a holiday sweater…

I stopped in at trs recently to see what was new there, and noticed that there are a couple of free holiday group gifts to pick up when you join their free inworld group.  One of the gifts is this gorgeous fitted winter sweater.  I love the deep green and red used on the texture as it gives it a more classic feel, and the reindeers are pretty cute ;).

Sizes included:

  • Mesh XXS-L + Alpha Layer
  • Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus
  • Maitreya Lara
  • Slink Physique & Hourglass
  • Tonic Fine & Curvy

Why are my cheeks so rosy?

My red nose and winter kissed cheeks are courtesy of Nanika as I picked up their Frosty Blush Catwa Applier as a free ON9 group gift at this round of ON9.  This particular round of ON9 has free group gifts in almost every display (little gold presents), and the group is free to join too which makes it a great stop for freebie hunting a there are LOADS!

Back to work for me – enjoy your day!

A “Secret” Meant to be Shared

So much to be thankful for

Happy Thursday, Fab Free, and Happy Thanksgiving to all the Fabulouses living in the United States who celebrate this holiday!  Today has me thinking about all that I am grateful for – my family and friends in RL, my pets, my SL friends and fellow bloggers, and YOU, wonderful readers.  Your support, comments, likes, and messages truly brighten my days!  Being able to share my adventures with Ripley, and the Fabulous Finds we put together has been a fantastic experience.  I feel so blessed to be part of this supportive, friendly community…so thank you from the bottom of my heart for being the amazing people you are!

Quiet Moment

A Surprising Dress Discovery

After viewing Sheidey’s mesmerizing eyes featured in her post [HERE], Rip and I moseyed over to Dulce Secrets to have a look around.  In addition to gorgeous make up, alluring eyes, and sultry skins, the pupster sniffed out this beautiful Ines dress, which is a free group gift.  It features a strappy, figure hugging, sheath-style frock, with a sweetheart neckline, and a playful, asymmetical hem that reaches below the knees.  The gift also contains a short, dark chocolate colored jacket with three-quarter length sleeves, and an interesting texture variation across the shoulders in the back.  The warm tone of the bolero complements the softly faded blue of the dress beautifully.  Best of all, the Dulce Secrets group is completely free to join!

What’s Included:

  • Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L and XL for classic avatars
  • Jacket applier for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Physique, TMP, and Venus

Sugar and Spice

Sugar and Spice and Accessories Nice

As Love stated in her post [HERE] (in which she featured this newest gift from Truth Hawks), with jacket, scarf, and sweater season upon us, we all need a versatile hairstyle that won’t interfere with our outfits.  After reading Love’s post, I looked through the group notices for the Truth VIP group, and picked up the latest gift, Sugar.  This cinnamon hued, sweet bun with wispy tendrils (my spice for the day) was the perfect style for my new outfit.  I slipped on Janice heels from Moda, and the sapphire Sarai jewelry set from Krystal Fine Jewelry, then headed over to the Bella Pace sim for some quiet moments before traveling over to my parent’s house in RL to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner with my family.

Thank you for reading!  Until next time, my friends, happy shopping.

Recharge Your Soul

 

Recharge Your Soul

Hello Fabulous Readers!  Here’s hoping you are having a lovely, lazy weekend.  Ripley and I are out doing what we do best…….Sunday!  We did some shopping (of course!), then some wandering, and finally settled down in this cozy corner of the Bella Pace sim to curl up with a few of our favorite books.

Not only a bunny-fanatic and my constant companion, Ripley also has a nose for sniffing out Fabulous Finds.  Today, he led me straight to Indyra where I discovered the newest group gift, this Kai Jacket and top in a mossy shade of green called “herb.”  It perfectly matched my Triumph Eyes in Moor from IKON, and I knew I had to have it.  Lucky for me, the Indyra Originals Fashionista Files group is free to join, so I had a new addition to my wardrobe, just like that!

A cheerful hello from Sheidey solved my next dilemma of what to pair my top with.  She had been 7 Seas fishing and offered me an extra pair of Zef jean capris she had collected from the prize-filled waters at Sn@tch.  There, you can fish for one of 20 random grab bags for free.  I’m so lucky Sheidey is such an avid fisher-woman and shared her day’s catch with me!  She inspired me to do some angling myself very soon.  I heard she also came home with a cutely-goofy looking hammerhead shark, too,….but that’s a story for another day.  The capris fit standard avatars and also come with an Omega applier for mesh bodies.

After adding a colorful Falling Leaves necklace from EarthStones and Caty wedges from KC Couture, I joined Ripley in the quest for a peaceful spot for some afternoon relaxation.  It is my wish for you that you find time to rest and recharge yourself before Monday rolls around.  Until next time, happy shopping!
