Classy Dame

Everyone needs a good bunch of classic items for their wardrobe.  Even me, the girl who loves bodysuits, pastel hair and thigh high boots.  Sometimes you just gotta dress it up all classic-like and be respectable and such!

Boss Time

I found this very appropriate, yet modern look that will take you from work to cocktails in no time.  And of course, it’s FREE!  I picked up the Donna pants and shirt at No Name by joining their group for free.  The shirt comes with an HUD that allows you to change to six satiny colours.  You can wear the top and pants separately, which will expand your outfit opportunities greatly!  This outfit comes in XXS – L with an Alpha Layer.

Hair Flair

There are several new lucky boards up at Olive, making the total opportunities for a new ‘do rocket up to 12!  Yep, 12 different boards – 12 different styles for all your hair needs.  You don’t even need to join a group, just a little luck and patience.  I was lucky enough to grab the long, blonde “White Rabbit” hair for free which I’m feeling quite luxurious in!  Go get ’em!

I think my work here is done, so now time for that cocktail!

Get Outta The Way

Right about now, I’d like to be the person in a movie who struts down the street in a completely unconventional outfit wearing insane heels and brandishing a baseball bat.  For some reason that’s a thing I’ve seen.  Think like…Harley Quinn.  She’s dressed up in the last outfit I would ever choose for fighting crime, but somehow she struts, does it with attitude, and kicks some posterior.  I couldn’t find a baseball bat today, so I settled with a hat that will tell the world how I’m feeling.  Bite me is a pretty good sentiment right now, and it replaces my baseball bat rather well.

The Nitty Gritty

My no-holds-barred attitude comes courtesy of NyDesign.  You can join their group for free, and pick up a bunch of gifts while you’re at it.  I really liked this bodysuit (you know me and bodysuits…) that comes with this cool cropped hoodie.  You can wear them separately, which would also be pretty fun, I think.  The bodysuit comes with several colour options, as well as the option of putting some semi-rude (ish) words and meanings on it.  I figured I’d let my hat do the talking for today, but by all means, you do you!

Craving Coachella

All weekend I saw people posting photos of their trips to Coachella music festival – you know, dressing up all crazy cool and dancing in the dust, with flowers in your hair.  I’m still stuck in the land of ice storms and shivers so I hopped inworld and found myself a cactus to pose beside!  I’m enjoying the rays of the sun on my way to see Beyoncé while sipping on some agave lemonade (I dunno, sounds like a thing to do in the desert!).  But the best part is – my outfit is completely free!

Dress me Up

I absolutely love this light and airy dress by Sophisticate that I found for free at the Garden of Shadows event.  There are several moderately priced gifts hanging around (mostly around 10L), but this one is completely free!  I love the mint green colour and the little heart cutouts.  Perfect for a day in the sun.  (I hope I don’t get weird tan lines…).  You can get it too by heading to the Garden of Shadows and seeking out the Sophisticate booth.  You’ll be happy you did!

More Hair!

Another event going down right now is Gachaland!  There are loads of  free gifts to be had there, but today I’m going to just tease a bit and show you the hair I found by Ayashi.  They’re always generous and have some great hairstyles out at events for free. Today’s side braid will keep me cool in the warm weather, as well as keeping me cool in the “Oh, Aline you’re so cool” kind of way since it’s pink! There are several pastel hues in the HUD with this hairdo.  Oh and yup – it’s free!  Just join the Gimme Gacha group and pick it up!

Who run the world?  Moi!

Rumpled but Cute

Happy Weekend Fab Free!

I’m thinking about the days when I used to stay up til the wee hours, dancing the night away.  I could dance for ages (I still can by the way!!!) and then wake up the next morning fresh as a tiddly, and ready to wink! (bahaha!).  Well, that’s my look today – the Saturday morning rumpled, just got out of bed, but still look flipping fantastic look.  I’ve got all the deets!

Strip it Good

Ok, so weird subtitle, but Vanilla Bae are the specialists of the strippable outfit.  Yep, you click on it a few times, and then bit by bit it slithers off your body and disappears into the ether.  I was telling you about some lucky boards there the other day, but today I’ll tell you about this cute top you can get as a group gift with the 100L join fee.  There are other gifts to be had as well, including access to the lucky boards which are full of goodies.  This top comes with 6 different colours in the HUD, and I must say that I highly enjoy the flowery design on the top.  Don’t you?

Boutique 187 has a cute free gift for you at the Cosmopolitan event – these cute Eiffel-esque glasses in a cheery gold hue.  They please me infinitely.  You can grab your own pair by joining the Cosmopolitan group for free!  The gift is right by the entry doors to the event.

Now go forth, my little ones – and take Saturday by the horns!

Seeking the Sea

I remember once, walking along the beach in Southern Italy.  It was hot.  It usually is there.  It was the end of the beach season though, so late August or early September – and the beach was mostly empty.  I was walking along, enjoying the sun, the light breeze and the carefree feeling of having sand between my toes, and water lapping at my ankles.  I looked up suddenly, and saw a dolphin swim by!  The magic of the beach does soothe the soul, and I know that the daily grind is wearing on me these days – time for a trip to the beach?  Maybe not in RL, but SL comes the the rescue again!

Beach, Please!

I found this glorious sundress – made for strolling along beaches, if you ask me, at DM Modas.  I joined their group for free and this amazing dress was all mine!  It comes with a really awesome texture change HUD, filled with 15 swirling summery designs that will set your heart aflutter.

Well darlings, may the beaches of SL and RL bring you peace and grounding!

Waiting for a Response

Dear Spring,

Hey there. I’ve written to you before I know, but you still haven’t answered… I know it’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other, but I just wanted to let you know that I really miss you.  I miss your warm breezes, your blossoming trees, and your sunny days.  Winter is kinda overstaying its welcome here, and you know the saying – a visitor is like fish, after three months it stinks (isn’t that after three days? Anyway…whatever).  I’m just writing because I’d really like you to come back, and bring all your charming attributes with you.  Please?  Pretty please?

In Anticipation…

Since Spring is still hiding in my part of the world, I’m just going to dress up like it’s Spring and pretend that it’s warm.  I picked up a bunch of fun things at The Project Se7en event – It’s their anniversary, so in order to celebrate they’ve got lots of fun gifts at each booth.  To start things off, I got this cute pink romper by Sys.  I like how it looks all sweet and knitted.  Perfect for cavorting in meadows, I think.  I added these stockings by Ambrosia for a little innocent look, (can we really classify thigh high stockings as innocent…I dunno…but just roll with me) making this look even more fun.  The stockings come with appliers for Maitreya bodies.  Finally, my pose and the flower in my hair are a gift from Belle Poses.  I love the carefree daisy look!  You can grab all these free gifts (and many more) at The Project Se7en by joining the group for free, and taking a walk about and clicking on all the balloon-festooned boxes.  The Project Se7en is open until April 30th.  Have fun!

Make A Wish

When I was little and I came across a fountain, I would beg my Mom for pennies to throw in so I could make a wish.  I can’t remember what I would wish for, but with the vivid imagination I always had, I bet it was some wild and crazy stuff.  What are Canadian kids throwing in fountains now?  We have no more pennies!  If I have to start throwing in nickels, you can bet I’m going to expect it’s a bulk wish purchase.

Simple Pleasures

It’s the first day of Spring, apparently.  Tell that to my boots and parka.  They still cling to me, desperately trying to fend off the cold North wind.  So, I hopped into SL and got down and dirty with some gardening.  And by down and dirty, I mean I pulled some plants out of my inventory and admired my hard work from a lovely bench in the sun with my cup of tea.  That’s my type of gardening!

A Whole Look…

I found a whole look today for free!  I stopped by Designer Circle: The Event and happily, it was their anniversary!  To celebrate, they have a ton of free gifts there.  I picked up the gift at Stormcrow Designs, and it contained a skirt, top, shoes, glasses and a bag.  I went with the top, skirt and shoes, and was quite pleased!  The shoes are sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink.  Pretty, right?

Sizes

• Hourglass
• Maitreya
• Physique
• Fitted Mesh
• Isis (Skirt Only)
• Freya (Skirt Only)
• Venus (Skirt Only)

More Hair!

I also picked up free hair at Designer Circle, this sideswept braid by Posh Couture is really nice, and I love the height I’m getting off it!  It comes with an HUD of natural shades ranging from blonde all the way to black.  I think you can go either dressy or casual with this one and it will always look great.

Opalescence

My fave find at Designer Circle are the accessories I picked up at the Graffiwear booth.  I absolutely love opals – and this necklace/earring/ring combo is no exception.  I’ve always enjoyed the shiny, holographic nature of this stone, and I really love this set!  Grab it for free!

Ah, time for another cup of tea, I think!

Rebel Yell

In the midnight hour she cried, more, more, more
With a rebel yell she cried, more, more, more

Billy Idol said it best, if you ask me, as he sneered angrily into his microphone and spiked his bleached-blonde hair up.  I may not be wearing the ripped vests and fingerless gloves of Billy’s era, but I’m still serving up some 80’s rebel realness today (for free)!

Scream Queen

I picked up my look today at Rebel Yell, where they have two group gifts out right now – these jeans with amazing boots attached, as well as the top I’m wearing, which is cropped in the front, and long in the back – a cool twist. The top comes sized for Hourglass, Maitreya and Freya.  You can grab these two gifts by joining the Rebel Yell group for free!  That makes my 80’s child heart happy.

Sizes for Pants

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Maitreya
• Isis

And Still Pr!tty

I also picked up a free fatpack of hair by joining the Pr!tty inworld group for free.  If you check in notices you will find the Valentina hair, but you may want to rush and grab it because it will most likely cycle out of there quite soon!  I’ve been a fan of Pr!tty for a while, and was well chuffed when I found this freebie!  Hop to it!

I should probably stop watching post-apocalyptic 80’s music videos now…right?

NAH!
