Run, Don’t Walk

Hey Fab Free!  I don’t have too much time for a chat today, because I’ve got  time-sensitive gifts for you!  Eek!

Hush Up and Give the Deets

Ok, I’ll be quiet now and tell you where I got my outfit!  Astrid picked up some great free gifts from Redeux.  The thing is, you have a very limited time to grab these free gifts if you haven’t had a chance yet!  The event is closing today, so have a peek at a few of the things I picked up from Le Fil Cassé and Noir.  My dress by Le Fil Cassé is really lovely in satiny textures and three fabulous colours.  It is a Maitreya Lara exclusive.  My heels by Noir are very versatile and come with a colour change HUD that will suit your needs, I’m sure.  They are sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink.  Rush down to Redeux, join the group and grab your gifts before it’s all over!

RUN!

Lush Lunch

Do you remember those TV shows back in the early 2000s about groups of girlfriends, sitting around and having lunch in a posh restaurant in New York City, or perhaps sipping on sour apple martinis while laughing about the craziness of life?  My lifestyle clearly doesn’t really lend to drinking martinis during the lunch hour in RL, but when it comes to SL, it’s all about gadding about town, and pulling up at a fancy restaurant to have whatever food I so desire…

Oh You Fancy

I needed the perfect outfit for my imaginary lunch at a fancy restaurant.  Luckily for me, Rosary has put out a new group gift that is quite literally a showstopper.  It comes with a colour change HUD so you can choose from a bunch of gorgeous colours, depending on your mood.  I felt spring-like and went with the appealing lavender shade.  You can pick up your own dress by joining the Rosary group for 200 Lindens. There are two other just as gorgeous outfits out for you, making it totally worth the join fee.

• Hourglass

Something Different

Although I’m stepping out in some pretty sexy clothing, I had to bring my own flavour to the mix with the little stars you see tatooed under my eyes.  You can grab this striking look by La Malvada Mujer at The Cosmetic Fair by joining the group for free and clicking on the gifts you’ll find peppered about the place.  This look comes with two appliers including Omega and Genesis Cosmetics.

Cheers!

Thrills and Frills

The other day, Astrid mentioned that I needed to get out and have an adventure.  She was quite right, so I snuck on over to Cythera, land of swamps and mists.  As I plodded my way around the bogs, seeking out thrills, I figured I’d best get some selfies done before an alligator decided to chomp off my legs or some such.  Where’s the nearest Starbucks in this swamp anyway?!

Frills

Although I’m seeking out thrills, I did manage to grab some frills when I was at the Gachaland event the other day.  I showed you some of the hair I got for free yesterday, but toady I’m showing off a whole lot more!  Check out what I got:

• Hair by Analog Dog (So cute with the headband – loads of different textures to choose from!) Free!
• Bracelet by Aseriz – Free!
• Earrings by Nanika – Free!
• Nail Polish applier by Livia (Comes with Omega, Maitreya, Slink, and Vista as well as Astralia Nails) – Free!
• Pose by Vo.Z (There are 4 poses in this pack) – Free!

Get over to Gachaland and join the Gimme Gacha group for free, then pick up all your gifts.

Seriously though, something just pushed past my leg and I’m not joking!

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?

I Can See!

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!

Making it Happen

I’m going to make the onesie as clothing thing happen.  I will, you’ll see.  Come on, think of the positives:  You’ll be comfy all day, people will compliment you on your style, and ain’t nobody else gonna be dressed like you!  Trust me, it’s going to happen!

My Lucky Onesie

I got my onesie (which by the way, if you click on it, you can take bits off one by one exposing different parts of your body…cough cough) at Vanilla Bae.  They’ve got five lucky boards out with a plethora of different looks for you.  You can join the group for 100L and pick up all five prizes (with a bit of patience) and also there are two group gifts to be had at the moment!

My Empire

I’ve been a group member at Empire for a while – it’s one of those groups you join and just don’t leave because they come out with some really fab gifts semi-regularly (they aim for one every second month).  Sure, it’s 500L to join, but if you hurry over there you can grab all the gifts from 2017 as well as the January and March gifts (hurry though, apparently last year’s are coming down soon).  It’s a whole lotta swag.  This month’s gift are the Hazel shoes that come in a full fatpack of colours and are sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink.

Now, me and my comfy onesie are making fashion magic happen.  Excuse us. 😉

Not So Basic

My go-to is the little black dress.  I love the easy glam of pulling on a black dress and knowing it will be appropriate, no matter the situation.  However, some days you really just want to push the envelope a bit.  Purple is the perfect half way point, I think.  Because it’s dark, sultry, and um…not black!  In my post today, I’ll tell you all about where to grab this particularly head-turning ensemble!

Dressed Up

I found my not so basic dress at Masoom!  Their April group gift is this dress that toes the line between supersexy and regal, and I’m loving every minute of it!  You can grab yours by joining the Masoom group for 10L.  I mean, check out them cut outs!  How can you possibly live without?  😉

Well Heeled

My shoes today were a completely free find at Bodyfy – the event that focuses mostly on tattoos and other suchness.  I was pleased to find a free pair of shoes by Fashion Addiction.  Just find the red buttons at each stall to pick up your gifts – no group join required, making these pretty pumps completely free!  The Bodyfy event is open until April 24th.

Best Tressed

And, it’s Truth time!  The March group gift came out a smidge late, however check out this pretty thing!  As always, the Truth monthly group gift is gorgeous, with a full fatpack of colours and a stylist HUD that lets you change up the bangs.  It’s kinda like getting 4 hairstyles in one!  If you haven’t joined the Truth group, it may seem a little pricey at 350 Lindens, but every month you get a sweet hairstyle that is always top notch.  Well worth it!

Time to sashay away!

Fly Gal

I have a love-hate relationship with lucky boards.  There are some that I totally adore, because I stand there for about 5 minutes and get a whole lotta swag.  Then there are others that I believe must hate me.  I stand there for ages, hoping for that letter A to pop up, and all I see is things like “number 5” or “Q”.  What the heck man!  What gives?  Despite the sometime frustration of standing beside boards that like to taunt me, I do get some really awesome stuff, and today is no exception!

Lucky Letter Love

Empire – purveyor of awesome shoes galore – have just put out 5 new lucky boards, and they’re completely free!  You don’t have to join the VIP group for these ones, there’s another update group to join that gets you these pretty little sandals!  The group joiner for this is right beside the lucky boards in store.  I got the Penstemon shoes, that are just so sweet and come in 20 colours – you can even change the colour of the gems on the bows.  Gorgeous!

Top it Off

There’s no waiting and hoping for this gift from Promagic – just click on their free subscriber and you’ll get this really cute tank top that is splashed with happy colours.  You may need to click and go into the “history” section of the subscriber to find their April gift, and if that doesn’t work, just unsubscribe and re-subscribe, because that totally worked for me!  This top fits my Maitreya body perfectly.

Right – back to waiting for some more gifts to pop out of this lucky board!

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!
