Gardening Gals

It’s officially Summer now, and that means that it’s time to dig in and get some planting done.  Me and Pru and ready for a bit of planting and gossiping, which will clearly be followed by some lemonade on the porch.   We’re getting in touch with nature again!  Hooray for the summertime!

Which Wood?

Witchwood (aka Oubliette and Petite Mort) are back on the hunting circuit with their very own Summer Festival hunt!  It’s filled with lovely summery, slightly boho outfits that will have you feeling like you’re in touch with nature before you know it!  The items are all priced from 10 – 20L and can be mixed and matched very nicely.  You can see which items Pru and I have got on in the credits below, and I’ve added the hunt key so you can see what’s on offer!  The Summer Festival hunt at Witchwood is running until July 5th!

Home Sweet Home

The lovely house Pru and I are hanging out in front of is the latest Stay at Home Club gift from Trompe L’Oeil!  To get it, just head over to their landing point and pay 0L.  The chairs on the front porch are also available for free there, and they look so inviting that I don’t know how much gardening we two will get done in the end!  As we often say in SL…you can never have too many houses!  And when they’re free…one just can’t resist!

Pastel Power

Has the time come again for me to wax lyrical about the joys of pastel?  I find that often the connotation is that pastel is sickly sweet, and maybe a bit childish.  But to that I say pooh!  What’s wrong with things being a bit young?  Pastel reminds me of donuts, flowers and shabby chic, which in my book are all wonderful things.  I am happy with a bit of child-like wonder right now!

Did Someone Say Candy?

Candy Kitten seem to be on board with me right now with regards to the importance of pastel.  This dress and jacket combo (which can be worn separately) are completely free to everyone, no need to join a group.  I’m all about the little rainbow and heart doodles too, because I’m sure I drew about 50,000 of those when I was young (and I still do, let’s be honest).  Head on over to Candy Kitten to grab this cute outfit, not sure how long it will be available!

A Few Faves

He loves me, he loves me not….time to get romantic and dress inappropriately for traipsing through the countryside!  Two of my favourite pastimes!

My cute little tied crop top is the latest group gift from KitCat!  I may be wearing this adorable top (sized for Maitreya) all summer, not gonna lie.  To get it, all you have to do is join the free KitCat group and click on the vendor. Can’t get easier than that!  There are a few lucky boards there too, if you’re looking for more free fun.

Shoe-Tastic!

Over at Little Fox, they’re treating members of their free-to-join group well with these super awesome shoes that go alllllllll the way up your legs!  I can think of so many occasions I could wear these to.  These pretty heels come in a full fatpack of colours and are sized for Maitreya, Signature Alice and Legacy bodies.

One More Stop!

There’s one more place I’m sending you today, and that’s the Pose Fair Market.  Their latest round has begun, and If you join their free group, you’ll gain access to a massive pile of gift boxes, each containing a really nice pose.  I’m showing you the offering from Infiniti which comes with the cute daisy I’ve got in my hands.  Love it!  The Pose Fair Market is running until June 24th.

Enjoy your weekend, Fab Free!

Bronzed Baby

There’s something I love about the colour bronze.  It makes me think of lots of different things – the summer sun, ancient statues, and a lucky penny picked up on a walk.  It has some pretty great connotations, shimmering and summery.  So this pretty bathing suit has me feeling like I’m ready for a bit of summertime.

Back to Ashmoot

Ashmoot are back in the swing of things after a brief respite, and they’re going full steam ahead with some great new designs.  I picked up this pretty bikini there as their latest free group gift.  It comes with appliers for Maitreya and Omega, as well as Classic Layers.  The little bows on the sides are removable if you want a more streamlined look.  Make sure you also pick up the Fab Free group gift while you’re there!

This Beautiful Life

West End Poses have very recently updated their Fab Free group gift, and it’s a really awesome collection of free bento poses that will be perfect in your next photo project!  There are 5 poses in the box, each one cuter than the last!  To get them, just activate your Fab Free group tag (our group is always free to join!) and click on the vendor by the landing point!

Bronze means first place to me today!

By The Beautiful Sea

Ah, the seaside.  I’m feeling particularly ready for a tan these days.  It could have something to do with the fact that I haven’t seen much RL sunshine recently from being cooped up indoors.  I think a trip to the beach would do wonders, but since I’m staying safe, and thinking of the rest of the vulnerable people in my community, I’m going to dream it up on the beaches of SL.

Teeny Weenie

I found the perfect itsy bitsy, teeny weenie, and completely free stripy bikini over at N21!  At the Grixdale booth, you’ll find a free version of the bikini they’re selling, and it’s pretty adorable.  No need to join a group here, just click on the vendor and it’s all yours.  This cute little swimsuit is sized for Maitreya bodies.

Cute Pigtails!

I have been a fan of hair by VCO for a while now, and I’ve just become a bigger fan because they’ve put out a free group gift!  This cute, long pigtail look is a free gift that you can get your mitts on by joining their free group!  It comes in three shades – a light blonde, this pinkish hue, and a light brown.  You’ll have sun-lightened locks before you know it!

See you in the sand!

My Castle on a Cloud

The ability to hang out up in the sky in SL is one I often take for granted.  I can escape to my little home among the clouds whenever I want, and just spend time with the glories of the heavens surrounding me.  Wouldn’t it be ideal to have your own little castle in the clouds in RL?  I would totally escape there when the world got to be too much.  As long as there are snacks though…

A Bit of Sass

The April group gift has appeared over at Sass, and the lingerie is calling out to me in all it’s donut-covered goodness.  To get it, all you have to do is join the Sass group for 10L and then pay the vendor 1L, which will then be returned to you.  I’ll be in this cute set for ages!

Everything that Ends with OV

There are a bunch of group gifts available at Versov right now, including a few new items.  The shoes I’ve got on come in a massive array of colours (I opted for rose gold, of course), and won’t cost you a thing!  Just join the Versov group for FREE, then click on all the gifts that are on the front counter.  These heels come sized for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink.  There are also some group gifts for guys too!

See you in the clouds!

Japanimation

I have always had the dream to take a trip to Japan and do all sorts of ridiculous things like buy nonsensical t-shirts, go to weird cat cafes and eat copious amounts of sushi.  My dress today has inspired me to go in a bit of a kawaii direction, not sure I pulled it off completely but, let’s just say I feel like I should be mastering chopsticks any second now.

A Pop of Colour

Ok, so maybe this dress from Quinnty’s has more than just a little pop of colour, but it makes me think of all the cool hot pink and green things I used to wear way back in the late 80’s.  Good times.  This dress comes in three little parts, the main bit I’m showing you, with an optional bolero you can wear as well as a little modesty patch to keep eyes from peering where you don’t want them to!  You can get yours by joining the Quinnty’s group for 50L.  There are a wholeeee bunch of other fun gifts there too, so make sure you take a look!

Now where were these promised mounds of sushi?

Down The Street I’m The Girl Next Door

Hello everyone. I’ve been absent for a couple of days due to feeling a bit on the sickly side but Im starting to feel better so I am back to show more great goodies you can find around the grid.

Today I am going to be showing you some things from The Kawaii Project. These adorable dresses by Katat0nik are the epitome of cute. I about fainted when I saw them in the gacha’s, because for L$75 a pull, its a steal! Whats even better is you have the choice between standard fitmesh for regular avatar bodies and a fitmesh that works beautifully with the SLink Physique body!

There are several different styles to play for in the Gacha, so I couldn’t resist showing you a couple more that I won. Especially as I am completely smitten by them! It also gave me the opportunity to show you a couple more of the colours of the Hair Bows from the group gift by Glow Designs! Their group is L$10 to join and you get a bumper pack of hair bows in the gift!

Another aside is this really sweet skin that is the Hee skin by VCO. This is the rare prize in their gacha filled with Hee Lip tattooes and is L$69 per pull!

Back to The Kawaii Project, if you join the event group you can find two really great gifts. One is a set of really pretty nail varnishes for SLink hands and Belleza hands by Quirk. Below you can see the HUD so you can see the colours available.

The other free group gift for the event is this really fun Couch and rug set that is by Atomic! The little plush toys are from the Exposure gacha at the event! I couldn’t resist showing you the four that I won and there are others to try for too!

This round of the Kawaii Project is open until 29th November so you have plenty of time to take a trip to Cutesville!
