The Search for Hot Chocolate

I’m just heading out into the woods to find a cute little place to get a hot chocolate.  I dunno, maybe it’s a skiing thing…I don’t really know how this whole “great outdoors” thing works.  Lucky for me, in SL it is completely normal to show up at a cabin in the woods to get a hot drink while wearing a rather skimpy little dress.  What, it’s plausible!

A Chill Wind

It may be chilly out, but I need to look absolutely adorable for all the upcoming festivities.  I found my sweet top and skirt combo (sized for Maitreya bodies) over at Adorsy.  You can wear the top and skirt separately, and there are lots of different colour options and combinations in the HUD, so you can totally make this outfit your own.  To grab this gift, join the Adorsy group for free, pay the vendor 1L (which it will return to you) and it’s all yours! (There are a bunch of other pretty gifts there too!).

Face Up to it

If you head over to Shiny Stuffs, you will be able to pick up my lovely makeup look for absolutely free!  I got my sparkly red lipstick (so festive!) and my snowflake-laden eyelashes just by paying the vendors in the middle of the room 0L.  These gifts come with appliers for Catwa, Lelutka and LAQ.

Hope you find a cozy spot to curl up, in SL or in RL!

Holiday Road

It’s that time of year…

Grab the hack saw and load up the Family Truckster because it’s time to go pick out a Christmas tree. I’ve never had as much bad luck as Clark Griswold, but there have been a few times…  Anyhow, at least there is a coffee stand here to warm me up before the hunt begins.

Accessorize for the season…

It’s time to get out the hats and scarves as the temperature drops. I was lucky to come across both items for FREE! The Wagner Flat Cap is a SLF&O Group gift at Fe Style. Just wear your SFL&O group tag to pick up the gift. Not a member? Just join the SFL&O group for FREE. I also picked up the Ki-Co Cozy Orange Scarf, a FREE group gift at ::K::. Now I’m warm and toasty.

Impulse buys…

Don’t you just hate when you’re checking out at the store and there are all these items lined up to get a few more dollars out of you. It happened to me at Fe Style when I was picking up the cap. I found the Barho Long Sleeve Shirt on the counter by the cash register for just 10L.

Happily Dispatched

*******
I was sent out for more firewood, but I really didn’t mind. I enjoy the stillness of a peaceful snowy morning. I even took some time to sit on a fallen log and listened to the deafening silence. I hope she doesn’t get too cold waiting for more kindling for the fire…

My Happy Place…

I was happy to find the Room Sweater and Pants, a subscriber gift from Happy Dispatch. While this outfit claims to be for Signature bodies only, It worked well on my ADAM body.  This outfit includes a texture HUD for 8 shirts and 4 pant textures.  The gift is easy to get. Just click the join group sign to subscribe and the click on the gift to receive this great outfit. The subscriber and the gift are both FREE. There are also past gifts available.

I hope your holiday weekend is a peaceful one.

A Cabin in the Woods

 

One can dream…

One of my secret fantasies (no this isn’t getting naughty, sorry) is to be snowed in at a remote cabin. There is something very rustic about this dream (of course I would need internet). With plenty of books to read and watching the snow fall out the window, I believe it would be quite enjoyable for me…

Dreams aren’t the only things free…

I stopped by The Menstuff Lounge and found that the sim has once again changed. All the gift for all the ‘Stuff groups are on display along the street.  I happened across the gift provided by Tiffany Designs. The Andrew Casual Outfit includes the shirt, pants and shoes in sizes XS-XL, and looks warm enough for the coldest cabin.  While the gift is FREE, The Menstuff group does have a one time join fee of 50L.

I’ll see you in the spring….

One Magical, Misty Morning

Hello there, FabFree Readers!  I’m Kathryn Vayandar, one of the two newest bloggers for Fabulously Free, but you can call me Kat.  A long time Second Life resident (8 years…..practically an SL senior citizen, but don’t get the walker ready yet!), I’m a dedicated bargain hunter and I’m excited to share my shopping adventures with you.

Today, my puppy and I took a stroll on a quiet country road in The Forest, an enchanted woodland sim that hosts a shopping event each month.  While Ripley wandered off, happily sniffing out bunny trails, I paused, enjoying the misty morning light, clad in the first Fabulous Find I’d like to share with you.  Knowing the day would quickly warm up, I chose to wear the cute, knotted top from Hottest Fashion’s gift for Third Life members.  The Melanie Set also includes a pair of white, high-waist shorts, but since the morning air was brisk, I donned a pair of sleek, leather pants from Greane Design which I discovered on The Marketplace for only 69 lindens.  My comfy Tawny Sandals from Slipper Originals and The Shadow Lord Choker (a free gift from Ronsem) blogged here by Love Trill, completed my ensemble.  The necklace is an older gift, but it is one of my favorite casual pieces and is still available, so I thought I’d mention it in case you might be interested.

Oh dear, I think I need to rescue the rabbits from Ripley…..until next time, happy shopping!
