Good evening, FabFree. Since Juli had … persuaded … me to play snow fight (Ambushed out of the blue), I was very grateful that I was bundled up in the ‘Snow Ready’ jacket and boots. Shown Here. But As I was being pelted with snow, I didn’t get to show the warm thermal shirt I had on under the jacket.
Fade to red
This is the “Jacob” white and red thermal shirt from Wicca Wears and it is also a 1L prize for the “Let it Snow” hunt. Though I was hoping the snow wouldn’t be down my collar… At any rate, ‘Jacob’ is a very nicely made shirt with good details and excellent texturing. It is certainly worth the 1L and a little hunting. While you are at Wicca Wears be sure to find the camping chairs and the Midnight Mania boards for other prizes and gifts for both men and women. Good hunting!

Hello again FabFree. There are a number of creators and designers across the Grid that can be counted on for well made, creative designs for the gentlemen of Fabulously Free. Amazing Creations is certainly one of those!
In addition to the lovely ladies gift we saw here, Amazing Creations has provided this casual winter’s day outfit for the men. This look is put together as one piece for ease of dressing. I found the fit to be spot on for Belleza and I imagine the other styles are just as well fit. I also appreciated the fact that all my movements did not produce the weird angled folds that some men’s wear is plagued by. Thank you, Amazing Creations.

Good evening, FabFree. I know it’s late but I hope you are still scrolling along looking for good things to add to your closet. In amongst the plethora of Fall and Thanksgiving themed hunts There are a few quality items for the gentlemen. And I do believe this casual top from Sweet Intoxication is one of the nicest.
This is the ‘Neco LS Shirt’ and it can be yours for some patient hunting and one Linden. “Neco” is Sweet Intoxications male gift for the “Chasing the Gobbler Hunt”. The shirt the thermal looking top comes in a large variety of sizes so you will likely find your correct fit easily. It certainly is worth the hunt and the Linden. However, the Chasing the Gobbler Hunt is over and done with on November 30th. So do not delay.

Lovely, never, never change
Keep that breathless charm
Won’t you please arrange it?
‘Cause I love you
just the way you look tonight
I was humming some old Frank Sinatra the entire time I was arranging this post. Doesn’t it fit perfectly? The gorgeous red dress and Gabriel’s handsome matching tuxedo, well, I think we look fantastic!
And who, you might ask, is responsible for this stunning couples new clothes? Why, that would be the delightful R&R Swag! I was fortunate enough to meet and have a lovely chat with the designers/ owners of R&R while camping the Lucky Boards. They both are truly delightful people. I was only too tickled to be able to show off my new free dress ‘Timeless’ and Gabe’s tux, ‘Royal’ from the Lucky Boards.
I have to mention that R&R Swag is going to be your new best friend if you are under 30 days old. You need to head over to the Rookie Alley in the main store. Everything there is free for any avatar under 30 days old. No group, no muss. no fuss… just fill your closet. They haven’t forgotten you if you are over 30 days. The Group is free to join and there are a ton of free Group Gifts. The Lucky Boards are also free/no group needed. AND there are a bunch of third party Group Gifts too! What are you waiting for?? Get over there!
Timeless
My dress is one of the current free Lucky Board prizes up at R&R Swag. I think it’s one of the loveliest formal dresses I have had the pleasure to show off. You not only get the dress, you get two bracelets, two rings, the earrings, the necklace, the heels and a stole (not pictured). Can you say “Wow”? The jewelry is resizable to get your perfect fit.

Gabriel is always a cutie *stop rolling your eyes, Gabe* But this tuxedo is just something else. The lines are very sleek and modern and the build is perfect. You get a long list of accessories for the guys in the prize as well. Along with the jacket/shirt combo and pants, you’ll get the belt, the bow tie, separate cuffs, and shoes with and without socks. I’ll have to be on my guard when we go out in this get up, ’cause all the girls will be looking him over.

I guess we’re just going to skip September this year. All the stores in Real Life seem to have done so. Everywhere is Halloween! But… well, I LOVE Halloween!! So ya know what…? I’m going with it!
The Twisted Hunt is certainly going with a spooky theme for this round of teeth grindingly difficult Hunting fun. September 1 through the 30th is all about Damnation. But don’t abandon ALL hope… the prizes are awesome!
In the Moonlight
MoonliteCat Creations has gone above and beyond with their prizes for the Twisted hunt. They’ve put out a female, a male and a Furry gift for us! I’m sporting the fabulous tattered “Damned in Red” gown and Gabriel is looking amazing in the “Damned in Red” outfit. The Furry version is of the men’s outfit with room for a tail.

I have a couple of my favorite things today. Comfortable, well-broken in jeans, a casual tee shirt and a cold ‘adult beverage.’ The best thing is I didn’t have to work too hard for two of them. Just 1 linden for the jeans and some hunt time for the tee.
Around the Grid
Around the Grid in Eighty Days is one of the bigger well known hunts in Second Life and the seventh annual hunt is in full swing until September 30th. That’s a good long time to hunt down some top notch prizes. Happily, there are a lot of good men’s items on the hunt along side the women’s fare. Like these perfect destressed jeans from ZFG. Just look for the red and yellow hot air balloon and a toss in one linden and they’re yours.

I’m NOT sure I like the idea of Dumpster diving….
But… I really like this tee. This is the ‘Pin Up’ tee from The Sissy Bar and it’s the free prize for the Dumpster Diving Hunt. Luckily, I didn’t have to crawl in a dumpster to grab this great tee shirt. While you’re at The Sissy Bar looking for the tiny trash can… be sure to check out all the Hunts running and the past hunts shelves. TSB always has a solid selection of men’s items in their hunts. Something VERY much appreciated.

After all of Juli’s posts about how great the SL16B gifts are, I had to check it out for myself. I braved the lag and found a few nice gifts for us guys.
A to Zed
I saw these great shoes were the gift Zed was offering and I was so intrigued, I had to check out the rest of their offerings. I’m rather pleased I did. There are several gifts scattered about the shop. A very smart high necked sweater with a large HUD of colors and this full ensemble suit. I like the unusual choice of a tee shirt instead of a collared shirt and a chain necklace instead of a tie. Sometimes edgy is a good thing. The ‘Lovers Day’ suit comes with the blazer and shirt combination, the pants, the dragonhead chain, a bracelet and it’s own set of shoes. There is also a matching cocktail dress for the ladies on the women’s side of the shop.

Now, about these shoes. The ‘Winklepicker Pikes’ ( it’s a style of shoe or boot worn from the 1950s onward by British rock and roll fans.) are Zed’s official Second Life 16th Birthday Celebration Free Gift. The generous Zed has given us the entire fatpack of the shoes so you should find a color and style that suits your every outfit.

It’s always refreshing to see Designers offering high quality gifts for the men of Second Life. As Ms. Aline said in her report on the Access Event, the men have not been ignored when it comes to gifts. Nearly every vender of men’s wear has set out a very nice surprise for us. And as Ms. Aline also said: beware the lag! Cam Shopping is the way to go.
All Access
All of the following items are free at the Access Event when you join the free group. Just wear your tag and help yourself.
Let’s start with my decision not to shave today. Or should I say, selectively shave today. This suave razor cut is from Fe Style. Facial hair style ‘V. GG’ comes with a Catwa and an Omega applier.
Like the shades? These Steampunkish glasses are the ‘Epic Glasses’ from Noir. You’ll get a huge HUD to change every surface to your choice of one of four metal colors. A note here as well on the solid quality of the build. Every detail is spot on.
I know a lot of men don’t like jewelry but I’m not one of them. Like most things in life, it all depends on the quality of the piece. This pendant from Aitui fits the bill perfectly. This is the “Forged Steel Snake” in a deep mahogany color. The necklace is completely resizable to get a correct fit on any body.
Last but not least, my pose is from “Wrong” but it is so right. “W33” comes in four variations and includes a cigarette for the pose. (Don’t tell Juli… she hates smoking) I’ve included a picture of all four poses for you perusal.

It’s not always easy to find good free or almost free things for the men of Second Life. Sometimes, I skip entire events because I just know there’s nothing there for me. I very glad I didn’t skip this round of Cosmopolitan.
Hats off
Or hats on… this is the “Weatherman” from Bondi and it’s the free gift at Cosmopolitan. The hat is technically ‘unisex’ but don’t take this from me. The hat is completely resizable and repositionable so you can get the perfect fit. Just join the Cosmopolitanfree group and pick up your gifts.
On the Hunt
In my never ending hunt for men’s fashion, I scour the Hunts each month and this month has been productive. I stumbled on the ‘Red Shoe Diaries’ “Little Black Book Hunt and it has not one but two tracks just for the men. One track, the one I’m showing prizes from, has a 1L price tag for each gift and the second track is 25L per prize.
First up is the “Cole” shirt from The Sissy Bar. As with everything I’ve seen from this designer, Cole is well made and subtly textured. Well worth the 1L and the time hunting.

Next up on the RSD/LBB Hunt are the “Bridgeport Jeans” from Horr Menswear. I really am impressed with these jeans. Jeans are such a staple of our wardrobe, it can be easy to toss out subpar pairs and hope no one notices. Horr Menswear has done just the opposite: they’ve made a first rate pair of jeans. Every detail is perfect and the texture couldn’t be better. And it’s still just 1L and a little hunting.

Most of the time when you think of sirens singing, it’s not necessarily a good thing. You know… rocks, ship wrecks, sailors drowning. But this Siren’s Song has none of the bad things and ALL good things! ‘Cause it’s a free Hunt! Mishmash Fusion is certainly one of those good things… two good things, in fact, one for us ladies and one for the guys as well!
Dark Siren
First up is the ladies prize for the Siren’s Song Hunt from Mishmash Fusion. This is the “Dark Siren” swimsuit and it will only cost you a little hunting. Yep, it’s a free prize! The suit is beautifully textured and each piece is separate for easy fitting.
