The Art of Doing Nothing

Much like Juli’s day, my today has been a bit of a lazy one.  I’m lounging around putting off all the little things that no one really likes to do.  I am eschewing the ironing, and the scrubbing and all the other boring little chores that clamour for my attention.  I think sometimes a noble day of rest is an art in of itself!

Resting Up

Time is ticking on this month’s edition of The Avenue.  I mentioned a while back that there were free gifts to be had there, but you’ll have to hurry over and join their group to grab these pretty little things, because they won’t be there for much longer.  Today I’m showing off lingerie by BouBouKi in a lovely pink shade, as well as these gorgeous electric blue heels by Mosquito’s Way that are sized for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink and TMP .  Hop on over to The Avenue to grab these free gifts and a bunch more before they disappear on November 20th!

Hope you’re artfully resting up too!

A Year of Fab

Fab Free!  Fab Free!  It’s a special day in the land of Aline!  I’ve been blogging here on my favest blog for 1 whole year!  One year of free and fabulous finds, peppered with stories of music, and weirdness and delight!  One year of doing what I love to do, and one year of being friends with some fabulous people.  I’m so happy that I undertook this adventure – and here’s to many more posts!

Head on over to Have Unequal and grab yours!  You can find all the hints for the Enchantment hunt right HERE.

Autumn Snuggles

Oh hey there my little muffins!  I’m just lounging about this evening – who said RL and SL don’t ever mix?  (ehehehe).  I’ve got some fun goodies for you that I picked up over at Cheeky!

What cheek!

I was toiling away the other day on the Jerky Turkey Hunt, and as I was hemming and hawing over where that darned orange feather was, I stopped by the free Lucky boards at Cheeky to rest my eyes and try my luck.   After a bit of waiting, my letter finally came up and I got this cute little (emphasis on the little) skirt that comes with the knickers underneath.  You can’t really read from this angle, but it actually says “witch” on it – the HUD has a few other options in it too, and it is sized for Maitreya, Hourglass and Physique!  Amusingly, while I was at the boards – inspiration struck me and after a bit of eye-crossing, I came across the orange feather I sought!  Much success!  I bought the contents for 1L, and inside was this cute off-the-shoulder sweater that I think can have you nice and toasty all through the fall.   You’ll find all the details of the Jerky Turkey hunt right HERE.

Top Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Maitreya
• Physique

Psst – Love found THIS on the Jerky Turkey hunt too!

Hope you’re cozy, wherever you are!

A Contradiction

Sometimes I feel like a good contradiction in terms is just what I need.  Maybe something like “he gave her another first kiss” – or maybe something slightly less thought-provoking, like pairing a puffer jacket with a cocktail dress.  I’ve always enjoyed mixing it up just a little to incite conversation!

Bow Down

Queenz has a really awesome group gift out this month – and it’s this gorgeous dress.  I wore it during my wanderings in SL, and got quite a few compliments.  The strap coils up and about your neck in a very pleasing way, making things visually interesting.  It comes with an HUD to change to five different colours (I went with a dark purple) and is completely free!  I just joined the Queenz group for FREE and clicked on the vendor.  There are a whole bunch of other cool gifts there too, so make sure you grab them all!

Sizes

• Ebody Curvy
• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Katena
• Maitreya

Bundle Up

It’s getting cold up here in the Northern marches, and I wouldn’t want my avi to die of consumption, now would I?  Luckily, there’s a really cute 5L gift for everyone out at Tatiko.  There are several different options for the colours on the jacket in the HUD, even some Christmassy looks.  Head on over to Tatiko and bundle up!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Maitreya

Who doesn’t love a good contradiction in terms?

You Can Pull it Off

One of the best things about SL is the fact that you can wear clothes that you wouldn’t normally wear in RL.  I mean, I’m sure there’s someone out there who could pull off this striking look in RL, but it ain’t me.  The other facet of me, Aline, can pretty much wear anything and make it look amazing.  I’m sure your pretty little avi will look just as fab!

Vaniteuse

I may be just a little filled with vanity when it comes to my looks on SL, but I suppose that’s what the game is generally about (I suppose you can make it about what you want!).  I found this exceedingly high cut dress by Scandalize and Noir as a free group gift at the Vanity event.  There is also a shorter top version that you could pair with jeans or leggings to create a cool look.  There are few other little gifties in the bag too to go with the outfit – so do check them out!  Just join the Vanity group for free, and pick this dress up right by the entrance!

• Freya

Before the storm

Good morning FabFree!  As Aline mentioned recently [HERE]… There is a really nice hunt going on that is being hosted by SLF&O.  There are tons of fantastic free prizes from some really talented designers!  The item you seek is an orange leaf.

A Whole Outfit For FREE!

What am I wearing today?  I am wearing the SLF&O Hunt prize by Stormcrow Designs that includes the jeans, boots and sweater with a texture change HUD!  That’s right… all three matching pieces with colour options for the top… how sweet is that?

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Isis, Freya & Venus

Aline and the Holograms

I’m sorry…did someone say HOLOGRAPHIC?  Because I am all about anything that shimmers, shines and even bears a passing resemblance to the love of my life in the 80’s – Jem and the Holograms.  You heard me, I’m all about the big hair, the massive earrings and anyone whose name is Jerrica.  That’s like Jessica, but with R’s!  Come on now, how can you say no to that?  Ok fine, maybe it needs a little toning down, but….really, only just a little!

A Hunting We Will Go!

Have you heard the buzz around the SL Frees and Offers 1st Annual hunt?  It’s big folks, and there are lots of fab designers participating, and loads of prizes to get your mitts on!  I’m showing off the really awesome holographic sweater by Caboodle (purveyors of all things shiny).  Just head on over to their store, and look around for the fall leaf that is hiding somewhere in the store.  The sweater inside is completely free, has three different colour options, and comes sized for Freya, Hourglass and Maitreya bodies.

While on the hunt, I also came across these fantastic shoes by Ch’s (also completely FREE!).  I love the buttons up the side.  Very military-inspired and completely and utterly adorable.  I love them.  There’s an HUD included with a boatload of colour options, and they come sized for Maitreya, Slink and Belleza feet.  Good luck!

Ain’t That the Truth

Here comes the next offering from Truth!  This month’s group gift is a really lovely and undone braid called Ciara.  Very sweet and soft.  If braids aren’t your thing, the stylist HUD has the option of turning it into a messy bun.  I do love a good stylist HUD!  As always, the Truth VIP hairstyle comes with a whole fatpack of colours.  If you haven’t joined yet, it’s 350 L, which is extremely reasonable, and SUCH a good deal.  Join the group and check in notices to pick up your own copy!

Until next time!

Gone Glamping

I’m bundling up and ready for the gusty blasts that November are sending my way!  I still want to spend some time outside, of course – so I totally found the perfect outfit for a camping excursion out in the middle of nowhere! (And by camping, I mean pretending to be very woodsy while having literally no idea what I’m doing!)

Bundle Up

This really fantastic coat and top set come courtesy of Atik and is their newest group gift.  I joined the group for free and have literally been living in this duo since I picked it up!  Isn’t it brilliant?  It takes all the guesswork out of which layers may work together when it comes to coats and tops, and the detailing on it is top knotch.  A great addition to any inventory!

• XS – L

Strolling Up the Avenue

I needed a great pair of pants to go with my new top and coat – luckily The Beautiful Ones have got me covered.  I found their booth over at The Avenue event, and much to my delight there were free gifts to be had!  These corduroy pants are perfect for pretending you’re the outdoors type while still looking unfailingly chic.  Join The Avenue group for free, and pick these bad boys up!  There are a bunch of other gifts there too!  Woohoo!
