Back in the day, my friend Daliah and I would spend all day running around the grid slapping boards, sitting in chairs, and finding the best freebies on the grid. Daliah had avatars in almost every letter and number so she was sure to score outfits for all of them. They had different personalities and styles. Whew, that was a lot of work. Desi, however, has always just been one avatar, and all her lucky scores are the reason you get lost upon teleport…because her inventory is carrying around lucky chair items since 2006!
Sadly, Daliah returned to RL and took all her avatars with her. But, I am keeping the pace and have a few favorite haunts that have produced beautiful threads. I’ve already raved about Siss Boom’s FREE NGN lucky chairs here, but today I am going to take you to another of my other favorite haunts…LSR. There is a 99L buy in, ladies, BUT, I promise you, it’s worth the cost. You get so much FREE stuff by being a member!!!
Both the Sexy Shakia outfit and Yamileh boots in this outfit are from the lucky boards. LSR also has amazing group gifts and 50% VIP Exclusives (limited copies), and right now, VIPS can get a 300L credit for the store. My blogging sister, Aline, blogged about that sweet deal here.
I’ve done a wee close up so you can appreciate the nice detail of these boots!!!

Hello there, Fab Free! With the new month, we have a bunch of hunts that got started, and I eagerly hit the trail of The Boo Bunny Hunt this week. My favorite prize of all is this adorable tank top. It makes me smile every time I see it, and I picked it up for just a small fee (plus a bit of time spent searching).
I’ll Do it Tomorrow…
…at least that’s what I imagine the sweet-faced critter on my new shirt from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. might be saying as he gives us a friendly wave. The Slothoween Tee features a cute creature lounging atop a carved pumpkin, brightly colored autumn leaves, and a crescent moon in a star-filled sky. The vibrant colors really pop against the dark background! With its narrow shoulder straps and slightly cropped hem, I’d be grabbing a jacket in real life when wearing this top, but hey, this is SL, and it’s all good 🙂 The prize folder contains an alpha layer and sizes for classic avatars, as well as versions for a variety of mesh body types. Each item in The Boo Bunny Hunt costs one Linden dollar, and you’ll be searching for pieces of wrapped candy. You have until Slothoween, er I mean Halloween, to collect some amazing prizes.

Over at satus Inc., I found these Halloween Pumpkin Earrings that were the perfect accessory for my outfit as a free group gift. They come in gold, green, and red, and are sized for female and male avatars. While in the shop, I also picked up an older free group gift to round out my look – charcoal-colored Stella Leggings. Inside the folder, you’ll find sizes for classic avatars as well as mesh body types. There is a 25 Linden dollar join fee for the satus Inc. group, but with thirty-two (yes thirty-two!) other group gifts, it’s well worth the price.

Hello, Fab Free! I hope you are having a fantastic weekend. I decided to spend some time today exploring the Whispering Windz sim. If you are looking for a lovely place to visit, I’d highly recommend taking a journey there yourself. It has meandering paths that work their way through a beautiful fall landscape. Before my idyllic afternoon, I picked up a couple of free gifts that I am excited to share with you.
But First, Lipstick
I decided to check out the 18th Round of MIIX Event this morning, and I’m so glad I did. Right at the landing zone, there is a free gift set out for members of the Hype Events ::: News and Offers ::: group, which is free to join. The Make Me Matte Lipstick Set from Opulein is compatible with Lelutka Evo and Evo X, Genus and Catwa HD Pro mesh heads. It features two creamy shades, pink and taupe, in BOM appliers as well as a tattoo layer. I opted for the blush-colored version, but either one will leave your lips looking lusciously soft. I’ve included a close-up photo below so you can get a better view of this gorgeous makeup. While you’re at the event location, you might want to tap the giveaway board for a chance to win a Lelutka or Furtacor gift card and Blogger Room access. Good luck if you decide to enter!
‘Tis Bat Season
I am a kid at heart and look forward to October 31st every year, so I decided to get my Halloween vibe going a little early. Over at Mister Razzor Body Shop, I joined the group for just 10L and picked up a free ear tattoo as a group gift. It is comprised of a small cauldron of bats – or is it a colony? I am not exactly sure, but I call it adorable! Created exclusively for the Lelutka Evo X mesh head, this gift includes a 100 percent version as well as a lighter 75 percent option. I love how it is playful the design is!
Weekend Sales
I always look forward to the 60L Happy Weekend Sale, which runs Saturday through Sunday. With a very reasonable price tag of just 60 Linden dollars per item, you can pick up some wonderful additions to your SL wardrobe without breaking the bank. Today, I scored the Jola Dress from Meva. With ruffled short sleeves, a laced bodice, and a flirty hemline, this ebony frock is ideal for early fall, and I have to say, the color is perfect for October. If you toss in a witch hat and broomstick, it could even double for a Halloween costume. The folder includes versions for the standard and petite Maitreya mesh bodies.

Over at [The Forge], I found another Happy Weekend offering for just 60 Linden dollars – a pair of over-the-knee stiletto style boots. They look like they were tailor-made to coordinate with my new dress. I really like the added detail of the golden buckles, which contrast beautifully with the buttery soft leather of the footwear. Fortunately for me, my avatar has no problem maintaining her balance on the slender heels of these curve-hugging boots. I opted for black to coordinate with my dress, but you can also find the Hellen Boots in seventeen other colors (each sold separately).

I wish there was a time in RL in which I could get away with wearing a skintight jumpsuit. It’s such a like…statement, that I’m sure would never be something that held up in my day to day doings. Imagine going to the gas station in it… or perhaps picking up some groceries, or you know – going to the library. I don’t know that I have the gumption to pull it off, but happily for me, my inworld counterpart has all the gumption I need. She is happy to flaunt her swerves and curves in all sorts of goodies!
Let Them Eat Cake
Alright, now that I’ve mused about the non-feasibility of madcap inworld clothing in real life, let’s get down to the nitty gritty. Freebies! It’s the Cakeday event’s anniversary, and that means lots of freebies. Just join the freegroup, and click on the gift boxes at each stall for an inordinate amount of freegifts. Here’s what I’m showing you today:

FREEhair by Made in Tokyo (Flexi hair pony – worn with my hairbase)

There’s so so so much more at the event, I can’t impress upon you how long you’ll be unpacking! Cakeday just opened on the 13th, so you still have a while to check it out.
Time to own your look, FabFree!

Backdrop – Oinc Promise of Love
Hello there Fab Free’rs! I’m so ready for the weekend, and I’m feeling sweet and sinister in this pastel look. I hope you have fun with these pretty playful group gifts from Dappa and Safira I have to share with you. Let’s get to it!
Dappa
Watercolor style tattoos always look so delicate and lovely to me. I even like the pastel blues and purples of this free group gift tattoo from Dappa. The tattoo comes in BOM layers and appliers (with a fresh and a faded option) for most mesh bodies. Also, the Dappa group is free to join.
If you ask me it doesn’t need to be October for you to wear skeletons, or in this case skeleton hands! This cute bodysuit is the latest group gift at Safira. I really like that this bodysuit has a version meant to be worn with pants, and one meant to be worn by itself. This free group gift also has a color change hud with quite a few solid color choices, and some metal options for the little heart-shaped buttons. The Safira group has a join fee of 50 linden, and there is an entire wall of group gifts available.
Hello There Fab Free’rs! Once again I’m feeling very in the spooky spirit of the season. I a few more of the many many many Halloween Shop & Hop gifts. I created this almost pretty possessed look using the gift skin from YS&YS, the gift dress from Luas, and the septum piercing gift from RAWR!. I really hope you have some fun with these freebies.
YS&YS
I can’t help but love this free skin from YS&YS at the Halloween Shop & Hop event. Even with her scarred face, she’s still a pretty chick. This would be such a fun skin to create a story around. This free gift includes BOM layer full skins, face only BOM layers. There are also variations to suit Genus, Lelutka, and Catwa heads. There are also two pairs of BOM layer eyes, the “blind” eyes shown and a creepy cool black pair.
This skeleton print dress is the free gift at the Halloween Shop & Hop by Luas. The “Donna” dress comes in a full fatpack with lots of HUD based color choices. Even with the exposed shoulders the dress has an almost cozy look to it that makes it a cool addition to any fall wardrobe.
Lastly, the planchette septum piercing from RAWR! was just the added touch this look needed. It’s also free at the Halloween Shop & Hop event. Included with the piercing is a color change HUD that gives you several options for the metal ring and the planchette part of the piercing.
