Thatched Cottage Dreams

 

There is something so heartwarming and serene about a cute little thatched cottage.  I love the magical aura they emit – something like out of a fairy story.   The thought of living in a cute cottage, your feet up in front of the fire, is so comforting.  Then, suddenly you might get the urge to get completely dolled up and head out to some glamourous locale, only to return by midnight to a cup of tea and some biscuits in  your little cottage.

Vanilla Cookies

There’s a new group gift at Vanilla Bae!  Always an exciting prospect, since their clothing is just so much fun.  Not only do you get this pretty dress in fatpack of colours, you also get the matching clutch and the adorable shoes too.  Purrrfect for Valentine’s Day!  If you know about Vanilla Bae, then you’ll know that they specialize in strippable clothing.  There are two versions in the box:  the PG version and the Adult version which allows you choose people who can take your clothes off bit by bit.  Ooh, salacious!  The Vanilla Bae group is 50L to join, and you’ll find a few other super cute gifts on the easels by the group gift area too.

Sleepless Nights

Sleepless Nights at the Chatou Visualize It

This very seductive Delilah Dress from Vanilla Bae is perfection wrapped up in silk! The dress comes in PG and Adult versions and in two options, White and Rose. The rose is a cute pattern for the bottom where the top is a nice pale rose color, I opted for the white here because I felt it more classy for a “middle of the night” shot. It was captured perfectly here and you can see my “Sleepless” face looking into the night sky for something to help me sleep. I won’t be losing any sleep over the cost as it was FREE, I just needed to find that cute little sun from the WOH6 to snag it!! You still have time to run through the shops and get all the gifts as it ends June 30, 2020

Delilah Dress Fits:

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Maitreya
• Legacy

There is also another noteworthy item on this hunt from THIS IS WRONG
The tattoo features cute tapes as tattoos on both legs.  It’s a good deal for L$10 too. The tattoo comes in light and dark options which change the colors to a lighter tone or darker. This is another WOH6 Prize so be sure to take a peek at the list before times up and get the goodies while you can.

Green is my Favorite Color!

There are only a few times a year where you can get away with wearing green! One is fast approaching and St. Patricks Day is on my top 5 list of all-time favorites! I found some cute new things as well as pulled out a few old to showcase today’s post!!

Green is my (not so) New Obsession

Every single time I say Green is my favorite color, I tend to sing out some alter lyrics from Aerosmith – Pink which always leads to an infectious giggle fest on my part. Now, imagine how many times I’ve sung that in the past week, can you guess? Not enough! Correct!! Now when I was window shopping The Saturday Sale this morning my heart jumped up when I saw *Vanilla Bae* Sakura Dress with all the colors available my mouse went right to the green option!

Sakura comes in 9 Fab colors
Black, Pink, Silver, White, Red, Navy, Olive, Brown, Beige

Winter Weather

Hello Fab Free! I hope all who celebrate have enjoyed their Holidays. I’ve been away visiting family, and though I did have a great time I am so very glad to be back. It has been such a mild winter in my part of the world thus far, I often find myself wishing for some more winter-like weather. Thank goodness for Second Life. Here I can get a snowy fix any time I want it, and not have to dig my sweaters out of storage. This cute sweater dress and the cozy winter scarf are both free gifts at the Winter Shop & Hop event. Keep reading for the details about these winter weather must haves.

Vanilla Bae

You’ve gotta love freebies from Vanilla Bae. This one is a cute blue, green, or red (there’s a hud for the color choices) gradient sweater dress with some fun features. It comes in three versions, each in a few sizes. There is a PG, Adult, and a Shoulder Off version of this dress. Each of those labels refers to the “stripability” (yes I made that word up) of the dress. The PG version is the one with no stripping options. The Shoulder Off version is just what it sounds like. It allows you to wear the dress with one shoulder, or both shoulders exposed. The Adult version is also pretty self explanatory. I’ll let you explore those options yourselves. To get your copy of this fun free dress by Vanilla Bae, head to their booth at Shop & Hop and click the gift vendor.

Sizes Included: Belleza Freya, Legacy, Slink Hourglass, Maitreya Lara

Tres Blah

While I was trying on all the goodies I picked up at Shop & Hop, I really liked how this scarf gift by Tres Blah looked with the dress gift by Vanilla Bae. This unrigged mesh scarf comes in 3 sizes and has a color/texture change hud with more than 20 choices. This free gift can be picked up at the Tres Blah booth at Shop & Hop.

YAY for Saturday – Chocolate Vanilla

Hey there Fabulouses!  I really look forward to Friday and Saturday in Second Life because that means Fifty Linden Friday and Saturday Sale time!  I didn’t have a chance to blog any of my FLF finds yesterday, because time is so sensitive with the offers ending at midnight, but with the Saturday Sale usually items are left out for a few days or even the whole week sometimes.

I love a good hair sale!!

I am really excited to show off my favourite Saturday Sale find today.  This week at Rama there are two long hairstyles to choose from at 75L per colour pack and in my photo you’ll see me wearing one them, called Rachel.  I did just pick up this one, but I may have to go back and grab the other one too, because it was pretty!  Go grab a demo 😀

The Serena Top & Serena Shorts are by Vanilla Bae and are available for purchase at this round of Collabor88.  They come in PG and Adult strip versions
