Visions of Advent Calendars Dancing in Your Head

Oh, FabFree… how I have been enjoying Advent 2022 so far. The FabFree December Advent Listing has saved me yet again and I am loving the presents so far! I have dreams of advent calendars visiting me at night in my sleep instead of sugar plums…

The Advent Calendar @ Ari-Pari

Today,  I am showing one of the advent gifts from Ari-Pari. All of their past and current advent gifts are available from December 1st through to the New Year. You need to be a member of the Ari-Pari VIP group to participate in their advent calendar and a new gift will be put out each day until January 1st, 2023. It only costs 25L to be in the Ari-Pari VIP group, and new gifts are regularly released to group members. Ari-Pari recently reopened their new store and I was happy to visit one of my favourite stores again! ❤

The t-shirt I am wearing is the gift for Day #1 from Ari-Pari‘s advent calendar. The gift includes a HUD of 10 basic colours. Each version of the t-shirt includes a pretty white snowflake design on it. This shirt is delightful, even if it is a bit chilly for a tee. 😉

Sizes Included

• Physique
• Hourglass
• Lara
• Legacy
• Reborn
• Freya

Happy Advent season, FabFree!

Crabby Cakes

Hey, FabFree! I have a couple more items from the Get Crabby Hunt to share with you all. I’ll be quick because this hunt ends on September 18th, so you only have a couple more days to do it. You may remember that the Get Crabby Hunt group costs 500L to join and you need to be in the group to participate in it. You can read all the details about the hunt and access the previews of the hunt prizes in my original post about the hunt HERE. I also showed another prize from the hunt in this post.

Today I am showing a cute crab-themed top and crab-patterned shoes which you can nab on the Get Crabby Hunt until September 18th.

Don’t Worry, Be Crabby

My t-shirt is the prize from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. I definitely have a crabby side to my personality so I was drawn to this tee right away! Please note that this tee will be retired forever after the hunt is over, so this is a one-time-only limited exclusive.

Sizes Included

• Lara
• Legacy
• Freya
• Isis
• Venus
• Hourglass
• Physique
• Ebody Classic
• Ocacin
• TMP
• Tonic Curvy

Paris, in Crab Edition

Starlight Apparel has been coming out with some really cute textures and different versions of their “Paris Sneakers” lately. This one is a special edition with crabs on it just for a hunt! Here’s a closeup of the shoes- they are so cute. This is also another exclusive for the hunt so this will be your last chance to get it.

Sizes Included

• Slink
• Maitreya
• Reborn

Now, all this talk about crabs is putting me in the mood to go make some crab cakes…

Hunting with Procrastination

Good afternoon, FabFree! I found the perfect hunt for the procrastinators out there, because it lasts not only a month… but 80 whole days! It’s been going on for a while already and there’s still time to catch up on it. I’m talking about the Around The Grid in 80 Days Hunt, run by Fun With Hunts. This hunt is perfect for me because I am always behind schedule and running late to events and hunts. I’m guessing some of you may be able to relate to the procrastination life!

I am wearing the following prizes from the hunt, and each prize costs only 1L.

• The fantastic top is the prize from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. Written on it is the saying, “I Love You To the Moon & Back”. I thought it was so cute. This is one of my favourite sayings because I think of a few special people in my life I love the most when I hear it. The shirt fits Lara, Legacy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, Ebody Classic, Ocacin, TMP, Tonic Curvy & Fine, and Standard Sizes.
• The adorable shorts are the 1L prize from ZFG, which is one of my favourite stores of all time. These shorts are a fatpack, which includes a colour hud that allows you to change the main colour to several basic colours like black, beige, purple, red, etc. Each version of the shorts comes with a black band/lining. They are very comfy and what a great deal for only 1L! The shorts fit Erika, Freya, Kupra, Hourglass, Legacy, Maitreya and Reborn.
• Lastly, the ridiculously cute boots are the prize from Poeme Couture. They come in brown with a fun retro pattern on them. They are so well made and the texture is fab as always with this creative designer. These are resizable boots that you can adjust to fit any feet!

The hunt officially ends on September 30th, 80 days from when the hunt started. The list of hints and prize previews can be found here. All prizes are 1L. If you can’t be bothered finding the hints and the prizes hidden at each location, you also have the option to buy each hunt prize for 25L.

Enjoy the hunt, procrastinators!

This post is filled with things that make me happy on the inside. I have a great free gift all about the power of friendship, and another 60L find that will help you spread your love of FabFree with the world! I even threw in a free hat and 15L decor too. 😉 Keep reading for the details!

There’s nothing stronger than friendship, so go grab this shirt for free and wear it with your best friends for life! It’s a free gift at Tastic for members of the Fabulously Free in SL Group for FabFree at Fifteen. You must activate the group tag to get the gift.

No Adulting Today

Tastic also has this funny hat out as a free gift for the Slept on Sales event from last weekend, and I decided to throw it into this post too. The event ended yesterday, but Tastic still has their gift out for free so go run to get it right now while you still can! This hat is all about not adulting, which I spend most of my time trying not to do. I might as well wear a hat about avoiding adulthood! You need to join the free Binge Events group to get the hat for free. This hat is unisex, so both men and women can wear it. It is unrigged so it can be resized and adjusted to fit your head perfectly.

FabFree Rainbow LOVE Sneaks!

The cute shoes I paired with this outfit are for sale for FabFree at Fifteen at SLW Design. To show the FabFree love, the designer created three rainbow sneakers with “LOVE” written all over them. You may have noticed FabFree is all about rainbows. I mean look at our banner right at the top of the blog… you see those rainbows everywhere! SLW Design created these shoes in 3 rainbow editions just to celebrate all things FabFree. ❤ They cost 60L for the duration of the event.

Sizes Included

• Maitreya
• Belleza
• Slink
• Legacy

The fun wall decor shown in my backdrop is also only 15L at SLW Design for FabFree at Fifteen.

Now go spread the FabFree LOVE and be a good BFF!

Bye for now!

Happy Birthday, FabFree!

I’m so excited that FabFree at Fifteen is here! Bring on the freebies and birthday celebrations! I am so happy to celebrate this milestone on the blog because being a blogger at FabFree has really changed me. It’s opened up many opportunities and I just love sharing my love for freebies with you all. I used to be the biggest fan and couldn’t imagine I’d be here today a few years ago. So, it’s time for me to give back to FabFree and get my blogging pants on and get down to business because I want to show you as many goodies as I possibly can from our wonderful event in the coming weeks! ❤

For more information about the event, make sure you check out Aline’s posts here and here and visit the ads listing here. Aline did sooo much work to make this event happen, so I think it’s time to give her a round of applause for all she has done to bring this amazing event together! Also, thank you to all the designers who are incredible! Cree also posted about the event last weekend here.

Repping the T Dot

I am totally repping my home town of Toronto in this t-shirt today – you know, Drake lyrics on my shirt and all that jazz!  Toronto is a concrete jungle of greyness and insanity at times, but right now the trees are in bloom, the sun is shining and I’m ready to take it all in…but maybe a nap first? Good thing this exceedingly comfortable pool table just happened to be here…

Mom’s Plan

I got my Drake-lyric adorned shirt today at High V, where they put out a gift for mother’s day for both males and females, and it’s entirely free.  It’s a great little crop top for days where you just kinda want to laze around, while also showing off your midriff!  No group join required, just a click!

Sizes

• Freya
• Isis
• Maitreya
• Hourglass
• Physique

Slouch On

I found a pair of sweatpants that work really nicely with my t-shirt at Atik.  I like the striking colour combination of lime green and purple, as well as the slouchy fit of the pants.  You can grab your own pair by joining the group for free (make sure you end up in Atik , look to your left from the landing point – took me a while to find it myself!)

Sizes

• Freya
• Venus
• Hourglass
• TMP
• Isis
• Ebody
• Ocacin
• Maitreya
• Physique
• Tonic Curvy
• Tonic Fine
• XS – XL Fitmesh with an Alpha Layer

Oh, and just so everyone knows, I refuse to call Toronto “The 6ix” because that’s just lame.  It’s T.O., because I’m old school like that.  Ahem.

Kinky

So I mentioned that I had a date planned for later, little did I realize that my date was going to be shopping at The Point! My friend took me on a little excursion to this fun event and I was pleasantly surprised to find gifts at nearly every little shopping stall. Some of the gifts are 1 or 2L, a few are free, a couple of them go for 10L. All of them were kinky and fun! I wanted to show off a couple to you here!

His and Hers…

If you run inside the Applique Chic booth at the event, you’ll find a variety of nice clothing. In order to demo their sexy fetish tops, they have out a very nice gift… these Kinky t-shirts that come in a his and hers version. You can pick up the box for just 1L and if your with a date he can get his for the same price!

Shirt Sizes Included:

• Classic XS – XL
• TMP
• eBody
• Ocacin
• Maitreya – Lara
• Tonic – Fine & Curvy
• Slink – Hourglass & Physique
• Belleza – Freya, Isis, & Venus

Kickers.

I was kicking around the event stores at The Point and stopped by Look@Me and feel in love with one of several 1L gifts they had setting out. I grabbed their In-Style January Gift heels for just 1L and put them on to go with my mood. They come in black with gold accents and a fantastic heel and will fit Maitreya, Slink, and Belleza feet!

Do you believe in magic?

TWE12VE is a new event this year that begins on the 12th of each month. To celebrate their first year, creators are giving gifts for just 12L each at their booths. I’m here to show you a few of the fantastic finds I picked up when I went to check out the goings on!

Do you believe?

I believe in magic! And tee shirts! I’ve become an avid fan of JellyRoll clothing since I discovered the cute brand, and JellyRoll is at TWE12VE with a few new releases as well as a 12L gift. Their gift, which you can pick up for just 12L, is a texture change tee called Magic that comes with a hud with four different textures. I’ve included the vendor advertisement at the end of this post so you can see all the textures available. It comes in several sizes to accommodate many mesh body types as well!

Sizes available:

• Standard sizes XS – XL
• TMP
• Maitreya – Lara
• Tonic – Fine & Curvy
• Slink – Hourglass & Physique
• Belleza – Freya, Isis, & Venus

Something magical

I stopped by the Adorably Strange Wares booth and picked up their 12L gift and was thrilled with what I found when I unpacked the box. I rezzed it out and discovered that it was floor glitter! You can get a pretty good idea of the look of it in the picture above, but the picture doesn’t really do it justice. The floor glitter shimmers, glitters, and moves just like magic and a swatch of it that covers a fairly good sized area is only 3 prim to set out. The gift is copiable so you can set out as many as you need to decorate your area!

Last touches

I finished off my look with a gift from Indigenous Designs. For just 12L, I picked up their gift box and this Rose Choker was in the box. There were two in the box actually… one in gold and one in silver. I’m wearing the silver in the picture above. The details on this choker are really pretty and it makes a nice final touch to a casual outfit (or perhaps for a more formal date?). Either way, I was charmed by its look!

Bigfoot by Day and Night!

I’m a big fan of fun graphic t-shirts. I’m also one of those Bigfoot skeptics. I mean how is Bigfoot really real? Everyone is always looking for Bigfoot… but how often do they ask the *real* question? Hmm? Hmm?

So when I went to JellyRoll, a fun and quirky little shop I might add, I fell in love with their current group gift!
