It’s starting to get chilly in RL, and inworld too… You’ll want to make sure you are set for the winter season sims, but don’t worry! Sin Original will get you there in one step – for free! When you join the inworld Sin Original group, you gain access to their monthly group gifts. The gift for November for the ladies includes the jeans, shirt, boots and also the mesh belted jacket that I am wearing in today’s post. They have plenty of other gifts available, for both guys and girls – so make sure you have a peek around!
ps. If you like this sweet skin, you can find it for only 99L at The Structure Your Skin Project this month! This is Mirror Enigma’s Heather Peach Skintone Cyan, which comes with three shapes (not shown), Light and dark brow options, cleavage options, as well as appliers for Lush, Lola’s and Phat Azz.

I can hardly believe it, but the HappyMood Sim is already half under snow! “Stop the insanity!”
The baby blue Floratta Low Jeans I am wearing above are a free gift at FabFree Headquarters, generously donated by *Tutti Frutti* along with the three other leggings and two cuffed bracelets shown below.
When I pick up a free gift at FFHQ, I like to visit the mainstore LM included within the gift folder and see what else strikes my eye. Most times I wind up purchasing something (like the Eve Long Sleeved Mesh Shirt for 180L that I am displaying in my HappyMood picture.), but sometimes I get lucky and find even MORE gifts!
Indeed, *Tutti Frutti* does have more free gifts for us in store in the way of lucky boards (no “L”s for me, you’ll have to check them out instore yourself!), and you can find a three pack of their Spring Confort Capri Jeans on marketplace for just 1L!
ps. If you like the skin I am in today, you can pick up Wow Skin’s Mary at The Structure Your Skin Project this month in two skin tones for just 99L each!
Hey there! It’s Leila again and I have lots to show you in this post! Freebies, Group Gifts, Midnight Mania and a Sixty Linden Weekend Deal, all in this post, so please read on! Here’s a pic of this beautiful and very inexpensive skin I’m wearing in this post, I’ll talk about it later on. It comes also with a shape (not used) and Lola’s Tango appliers.
What’s more, all of these outfits also come with appliers and I’m wearing my mesh breasts in this post!
I do not touch up my pictures other than to crop and put them together for easier viewing, so this is exactly how the skin and items look on me to me. I use a simple clear white windlight setting for my pictures as well. (analutetia-avataroptwhiter) I only mention this because I know there’s a lot of questions about how things look in pictures versus how they look in world so, this is just to say what you see from me is what you would get in world with these same settings.
So on to the goodies!
This outfit is FREE. Absolutely FREE. It’s on the main desk at B!asta.
It is the Generation X outfit and comes with the socks, skirt, corset and shrug, and also includes the breast applier. It does not come with underpants though so if you’re modest like I am, I suggest wearing a pair of your own undies. I had a tintable pair and tinted mine to match the solid color in the skirt. Voila!
With this outfit I am wearing a FREE jewelry set from Two Sisters Treasures. This is a April group gift except for the bracelets which is a midnight mania prize. Join the group and then click the boxes under the midnight mania boards to snag this jewelry set and another one I’m about to show you as well. You must be a group member to click the midnight mania boards and the goals are only around 60 people so you should have no trouble snagging those bracelets. There’s also two other gifts up there but I’ll let you find out about those yourself.
These boots are a former group gift from Mary Jane Shoes. They are the sleek ankle boots in chocolate. As I said they are a former group gift but Mary Jane Shoes gives a pair of shoes or boots away every month as a group gift and I’m about to show you the gift for this month in just a moment. There’s also a pair of biker boots at the shop for men. Group is free to join!
The skin I am wearing is one of the new items at the brand new round of Structure Your Skin Project. This skin is by AnnaA Body Shop. It comes with the skin, eyebrow shaper, a hide lashes alpha layer, a shape (NOT SHOWN) and the tango appliers. It also has two versions of the skin and applier, with or without nipples. You get the whole shebang for 99L which is an amazing price and I think it’s an adorable skin. Try the provided demo of course!
Finally, the hair I am wearing is a former Hair Fair group gift that is still available at Damselfly for FREE The pack is a full fatpack so you’re sure to find a shade that works for you. There is also a gift available there for men!
The nails I am wearing are NOT FREE, I just picked something out of my inventory. These are the Precious nails in white from Candy Nail.
Next up is the current Group Gift @ B!asta! This beautiful gown is FREE for group members. It does cost 50L to join the group but B!asta gives at least one gift every month as well as participating in lots of events so it’s worth it to join and get all the great goodies! This dress comes with the top, glitch, skirt and Lola’s tango applier. I tried to get a couple pictures where you could really see the movement of the skirt, so pretty.
The jewelry I’m wearing with the dress is also a Freegroup gift from Two Sister’s Treasures. This is the March Black Diamond and Gold set. You can snag all the pieces with your group tag except for the earrings which you’ll need to slap the mm board to grab. If you scroll back up to my first pic you can get a close up of how pretty this set really is. Again the group is free to join.
The shoes are the aforementioned FreeGroup Gift heels from Mary Jane Shoes They are the Vogue shoes in Jet and come with the a hud for metals and skin color adjustments. Group is free to join.
Hair and Skin and Nails remain as above, except I changed my nails to the black color of the Precious Nails. 🙂
And yes there’s more! The Midnight Mania gift @ B!asta is a set of 4 retro style bikinis which also includes the appliers for all four colors.
The goal of the board is 75 and you do not need to be a group member to slap it. These are such cute little bikinis! Go upstairs to give them a slap 🙂 There’s also a lucky board and a comfy sitting area right beside the board.
I’m wearing another pair of shoes from Mary Jane Shoes This pair is NOT FREE, but it does have 3 colors in the package and are pretty fabulous 🙂 These are the Devious heels in Pink/Red.
Hair, Skin and Nails are all as above, except I changed the Precious nails to Pink!
And last but not least, I’m showing one of the 60L weekend outfits from B!asta.
This is the Autumn in Bali set in purple, includes the usual layers, skirt and Lola’s tango applier. It fits and moves beautifully and is a great little outfit to wear hanging out at the beach or to go casual dancing in! Hopefully my pictures show the moevement somewhat.
For fun I also picked up this Jewelry set from Two Sisters Treasures. I am such a fan of SL Jewelry where we can have sparkle (But not BLING) all the time! This Star Silver Beaded Earrings, Necklace and Bangles. Each part is only 10L each so everything for 30L! All of Two Sisters Treasures Jewelry has resizers and I used them to make the necklace a lot shorter so it would go with this dress.
Whew! So in a couple of stops you can grab some fun and fab items to wear. 🙂
Here’s the direct slurls for each item, have a good night, Leila!
I was out and about today doing a little window shopping, because today is the first of the month when so many of the fashion galleries and showcases and new group gifts are set out! I stopped in at The Designer’s Showcase and found that they have a whole new round of designs on sale to snag, and three brand new group gifts to pick up. One of them is the mesh LIV Glam K-Collection Penny Sweater Dress I am wearing. The Designers Showcase inworld group is free to join.
The skin I am in today is a Structure Your Skin Project find made by Mirror’s Enigma. The gorgeous Victoria skin is available in a peach skintone with two makeup variations, cleavage option, a pair of eyes, Lola & Lush Appliers and a shape (eyes, appliers and shape not shown today) for just 99L! It will be available all month until the next round in May.
I am afraid I was too slow to the punch in showing you this great mesh Bodycon Dress in Teal from ISON. It was a group gift for Avenue Magazine members this morning when I picked it up, but I went back this evening to grab a slurl for you all after I took my pictures and started my credits, only to find out that it’s no longer there… sorry!! Since I have put all this together, I am going to show you a fantastic deal on a skin set and a 10L treat on marketplace!
UPDATE – THIS DRESS IS AVAILABLE AGAIN FOR FREE! –GO HERE, and join the free Avenue Magazine Readers Group to pick up the free ISON Bodycon Dress. Thank you Alexandra for the information 🙂
If you are a skin whore like me, you’ll want to check out this month’s round of the Structure Your Skin Project. There are walls full of skins from designers across the grid for both ladies and men, priced at 99L. The rounds switch out each month, so there is a fresh batch now for the taking! I am displaying today, The Eliza Light Skin Tone skins made by Mirror’s Enigma. This month you can pick up the three below with cleavage options, eyebrow shaper and also a shape (I’m wearing my personal shape) for 99L.
While I was scanning Marketplace today for “red stuff” to go with this dress because I love putting teal and red together… I found the JCNY One Love Ring priced at 10L. You know me… I’m a sucker for stuff with my name on it, but just because it’s got my name on it, doesn’t mean you can’t have it too!
I am still wading my way through my With Love Hunt prizes folder and came across a really adorable meshWool Cat Sweater from Mijn, which is only one of the two With Love Hunt Prizes you can pick up there. The other prize is the same sweater in a different print. Renee showed these comfy Patchy Cotton Leggings previously in a Paradisis Post, but it went so well with this sweater I needed to show them too. They are the With Love Hunt prize from Gawk! I have shown many of the WLH prizes, but just in case you need a reminder, the cost for each prize is 10L and the hunt icon you are searching for is a black gift box with red ribbon.
Love these mesh boots? MEEEE TOOOO and in fact I picked them up in three colours (red, tan & black) because.. they are only 70L at The Dressing Room!! These are Slink’s Vanity Boots and they are beautifully textured with a wedge heel and a side zipper. The handbag I am holding, is not just any handbag. You can find the I Want Candy Mesh Bag at Ruca Tease for 175L and while it is a great looking bag, it also gives out candy! You can click on it, or others can click on it, and it gives out sweet treats 🙂
It’s not very often I stray from my light shades of hair, but there was no question when I put on Mirror Enigma’s Socordia V2 skin featured at Structure Your Skin Project this month, and realized it was well worth the temporary change of my normal blonde thing I have going on. A really gorgeous skin for just 99L. It comes with a few shapes, french nail gloves, hair base and cleavage options as well as a couple pairs of eyes. I am not showing the eyes because… IT IS TIME FOR IKON‘s monthly group gift!! Available until Monday evening, only for group members (free to join) is a stunning pair of Eternal Eyes in the colour Peak.
****************
Have you checked out the I ❤ Fashion Boutique? There are walls and walls of downright steals there from different designers across the grid priced from FREE to 100L. They rotate their fashion offerings every month and even have a sweet group gift to pick up! This month, the group gift is the Love Fashion Bag in grey shown in the photo. The group is free to join.
The mesh winter coat I am wearing is by Ruca Tease and is not free, but a new release that is available in several colours and includes a pair of boots too! The satiny pink top I am wearing underneath is a free lucky board prize from Sn@tch. The tops are called Ultra Lounge and they come in a fatpack of pastel colours. They look fantastic under a jacket and are equally as wonderful on their own. The necklace I have blogged before, but the Antique Pendant Key is still available for 1L at Fairy Tail and I love it, so I thought I’d mention it again 🙂
The skin I am in today is Luxuria by Mirrors Enigma. This beauty is currently being featured at the Structure Your Skin Project for 99L. Included are both makeup versions of the skin shown above with cleavage and hairbase options as well as the eyes, and three shape options (shapes not shown) ***************

The Cardigan Sweater I am wearing can be found at U.One for 10L, which is also where you can find this great printed handbag for 1L!
If you are in the market for a new skin, make sure you check out this round of skins at The Structure Your Skin Project! The skin I am in today is one of the skins made by Modish that you can find there this month for 99L. Its called One-Way Kiss in sunkiss skin tone and features bright glossy lips, frosty eyes and light brows.
I found this Chunky Heart Necklace in the MM Marketplace store for just 10L. It comes with a colour change hud that allows you to change the colour of the metal, and also the heart so you can match it endlessly up with all of your outfits!
If there is one job I have been avoiding all month, it is the depressing job of taking all of my sparkly summer sandals, open toed shoes and light jackets out of the entry way closet and replacing them with the winter coats, and boots, and other constricting warm things. The snow falls when it wants here in Canada, which is early, often and a lot (lol), so today I am forcing myself to be prepared! It was just perfect timing when I logged on this morning because I had notecards from two very helpful readers to let me know that SPLASH has a fantastic four pack of mesh Pimp Coats in red, green, white and black set out as a free gift. It does state that it is a group gift, however I did not need to join the group to pick it up. You may as well join the group – that way you’ll have a heads up on the next gift! Looks like Love will be all geared up for winter… that makes one of us, because I am here blogging instead of cleaning out that closet!! Tee hee.
The skin I am in today is made by Mirrors Enigma and is called Delaney. This skin can be found in a pack of three different makeup themes in an olive skintone, with eyes, cleavage options and also a shape (shape not shown) for 99L at The Structure Your Skin Project. It’s not free, but one heck of a deal!
Prism Designs has a super cute beachy group gift out for it’s members this month! The photo above displays the Life’s A Beach outfit that includes the gold bikini top (and bottoms as well, not shown) and the adorable knickers with a fun swirly print on them. The group is free to join.
While I was at Prism picking up the group gift, I noticed that they are participating in the Keep Me Cool Hunt that runs until August 31st. If you locate the ice cream cone icon in the store, you can buy the partial mesh Josie outfit below that includes the dress, scarf and bracelet for 0L!
The skin I am wearing today is not free, however I can’t help myself from sharing the details with you because I LOVE it and it’s a great deal!! You can pick up Mirror Enigma’s Rachel in a tan skin tone at the Structure Your Skin Project for 99L this month. The pack includes three makeups with and without cleavage, as well as eyes, lashes (not shown), and a shape (not shown). What a steal for such a beautiful skin. Mirror Enigma’s lips have been blowing me away lately!
