. . . . there was lovely princess who had a magical nightingale that sang the most beautiful songs….
Hello, my dears! If you’ve ever loved fairytales, I have the hunt for you: Finding the Fairytale by Fun With Hunts!
This is the Fairytale Dress: Rose by Toxic*H. The corset and dress are one seamless piece with just one alpha layer. I love the rich red color and the bell sleeves. I don’t know if designers get together sometimes and plan their hunt gifts to perfectly compliment each other but that’s what’s happened with the Rose dress and the “Fire in Flight” Beaded necklace from Glint. Don’t they look great together?
What’s a good story without some magic? This is the Mechanical Nightingale from Insanity’s Own. The little shoulder bird sings at a touch as his key winds. After taking the pictures, I set him up in my house to keep me and Blaze company.
This hunt has a little something for everyone. There are gifts for both men and women and things for the home. There’s even some very nice poses. These elegant poses are from Verocity and there are several couples poses from other Hunt participates.
The Finding the Fairytale Hunt is a 1L hunt and it runs until Feb. 28 so get your fairy wings and wands and get hunting!

Happy Sunday Fabulistas! Were you able to have a nice quiet day like I did? I think a lazy day is a good way to finish out a long week, or start a new week, depending on what you think a Sunday does. Naturally, I spent some of that free time running around and finding some fun things to show you all.
I started out at the OMG – Oh My Gacha Event. There are so many gachas there, I wish I could show you everything I played for. However, I was able to pick out a few of the items I won. My very first play was the Verocity Machine. There are 2 different machines, but I fell in love with the Camera Poses in the first one. There are 8 in total, and I got almost all of them, and at only L$25 per play, and no rares, it was pretty easy. Each pose comes with its own camera prop already adjusted for that specific pose. Lag ate a few of them from me, but when I contacted Bliour Michaels (Windie Melody), owner of Verocity, she was quick to respond as well as help me out. Thanks Bliour!
Another OMG goodie I got, were these super cute sneakers from bubble! There are 10 commons, and 2 rares to be won, and they are only L$60 a play. These are un-rigged mesh, so they are easily resized and repositionable, which totally means they could be unisex, as I could easily see a guy wearing a pair of these.
The last gacha prize I’m going to show off is this super playful hair from ploom. These come in the ploom standard colour fatpacks, of which 6 are commons, and 3 are rares. I only played the one time and ended up with a colour pack that works for my preference of hair colour, yayyy!! The cute little bows are texture change, with quite a few options to match almost any outfit. This gacha is L$75 per play.
OMG – Oh My Gacha runs until the end of the month, so you have loads of time to get over there, maybe even wait a day or 2 and let the lag die down! Who can wait though, am I right? LOL.
Oh, you were probably noticing the different lipsticks I am wearing in the picture that shows off my hair. Well, for all you makeup lovers, you need to head down to Oceane, and just behind the counter, there is a stack of gift boxes tied up with ribbon, and inside you will find the biggest fatpack of lipstick I have ever seen! Best of all, it’s free! Seriously, there are many different colours, of which I am only showing a few, and almost each of these colours comes in several different shades as well. There has to be 30+ lipsticks in there. I’m not sure how long this gift is going to be out, so make sure you run down there right away, I’d hate for you all to miss out.
Okee dokee…I think I am done for the evening. All that relaxing today has made me sleepy 😛 LOL. So until next time, TTFN!

Well hello all you fabbie readers! I know, I have been MIA so far this week, what can I say…December is keeping me busy! Do not worry though, I am still working hard to find fabulous things to show all of you, and I really couldn’t wait to show off 2 free gifts from Somnia.
OK, while I say 2 free gifts, what I really mean is the same gift in 2 places and yet it’s not the same. Confused? Let me explain. The wonderful Sanura Snowpaw of Somnia, has generously put out a giftie for everyone, under our FabFree Christmas tree at the FabFree headquarters. It is the lovely mesh Kohana dress, which comes with a HUD with 4 different texture options. Now, if you love how pretty and fresh this dress is, and wished you had a few more colours options…all you need to do, is head over to the KittyCatS main store, and hit day number 7 on the KittyCatS and Friends Advent Calendar. One of the gifts you will receive…is the mesh Kohana dress, but this time, the 4 textures on the HUD supplied, are different from the FabFree Tree gift.. To save on precious inventory space, the HUDs are interchangeable, so you only need to keep one set of the actual dresses. Anything that can cut down on my inventory numbers, is a big bonus in my eyes! So, you are getting a total dress fatpack of 8 textures, just by stopping at 2 places! How easy is that, and you can’t beat free. I’ve included pictures of both HUDs to show you all the colour sets you have to choose from.
Alrighty, I have some catching up to do to make up for my quietness in posts so far this week, so I am going to run off to find some other wonderful goodies to show you all, until then, TTFN!

I have to admit: this is my favorite time of the year. Autumn is fading out in a blaze of glory and winter is just waking up. The Winter Love Hunt is just my cup of tea… or hot cocoa. 🙂
This is a 0L hunt with twelve stops and a load of fun festive gifts. It runs from November 5th until December 5th. First up is Perfect Seduction and this pair of cozy jammies. The tank and lounge pants are one item so you can save on alpha space. I love the cheery red! I’m also wearing Little Bones ‘Feline” hair style for a ‘down time’ look. Feline is one of the past group gifts from Little Bones (still available in store) that Pru Rexroth showed us here.
I also found Lushish Catz’s Winter Blue sweater and snowflake jeans. I paired them up with Pure Poison’s Winteria necklace which was a past group gift. But if you like it, it’s still available ( along with a ton more free group gifts) at the Pure Poison main store. My hair which is getting full of snowflakes here, is Olive’s ‘Flutter’ hair from the Gacha at the main store. We first saw this gacha prize in Skyler Glasswing’s post here.
Lastly, something a little fun and different. Ready to play Santa’s helper this Christmas? Siren’s Moon has got the perfect outfit for you! It comes with the boots, the shorty dress and the jaunty Santa hat. I love the flirty snowflakes ‘falling’ from the skirt! Just the thing to pass out Christmas Cookies in.
I’ve been on the hunt again! This time I delved into the darker world of fairy tales with the Brothers Grimm Hunt. This is a 2L per prize hunt and it has some very nifty things. First up is the mesh Peasant dress from ..elation.. This was a new to me store and I very much enjoyed checking it out. The dress is very well made and moves nicely. I bet it would be perfect for a fantasy RP. It was the perfect costume to find Potpourri Designs “Poisoned Apple on a Stone Pillar.” The pillar is a great prop for a picture or an RP but it is more than just a prop. It comes in several versions with and without the apple. Completing the scene is the “Aponi” hair style from EMO-tions. This is one of the several in-store Gachas at the mainstore. I’m wearing the “naturals 3”, a pretty taffy blonde.
One nice thing about this particular Hunt is there are a varity of styles for the prizes. I found the fantasy/medieval dress then found this funky tank top/short dress. This is B-UniQ’s “The Raven”. Again, so nicely made! I’m not daring enough to wear it alone so I paired it with these dollarbie black leggings from [Eve n Better] found on the Marketplace. Topping off my look is the Argrace Welcome gift hair “Minato” which Tiana Omizu and Love Trill showed us here.

UPDATE: As I’m typing this, I checked the website for the Hunt and discovered that ..elation.. is in the midst of moving their store. The Hunt organizers are asking for us to check back a little later for a new SLurl.
So, this months photo challenge theme is ‘What are you thankful for’, and for me, that was a pretty easy answer. I am thankful for my family, specifically my Mom, Shelly 🙂 So, I asked her to pose with me in a post, and she agreed!
Now, first thing you will notice, we are both wearing the same skirt, funny thing is, this actually happens a lot, both in RL and in SL. While our tastes in clothing are not exactly the same, we do agree on many pieces. So we thought it would be fun to show 2 different looks based on 1 piece we both have in common. Lucky for you all, the Savannah high-waisted skirt from Tee*fy is available on the Marketplace, for only L$1!
For my Mom’s more sophisticated look, she was able to bring in a few other pieces that I wanted to bring to your attention. First, her SLink feet shoes from Gypsy Chic, which are L$55 per play at a gacha at the current round of The Thrift Shop. As well, her purse, and the cross necklace, which are both part of the Danger Danger full outfit from Rose Marine, which is on the Marketplace for L$55. As you can see, bargain finding runs in the family.
My punky, eclectic look, was pulled together with a great Marketplace find in my top, which is from {the.outhouse}, and is only L$25. The stack of bracelets I am wearing is another Marketplace find, and even better, are free!. Lastly, my super cute, and bright, clutch from Emporium, is also in a gacha at The Thrift Shop, and is only L$15 per play. It also happens to be a gift from my Mom…wasn’t that nice? Not really, that colour yellow is not a favourite of hers 😛 .
It’s funny, as I was trying to pick a pose for us, when we hopped on the one we settled on, my Mom said it looked just like when I am trying to drag her to do some shopping. See, SL and RL can be so similar to one another. LOL!
Before I leave, I just wanted to say thank you to my wonderful Mom, Shelly Macchi, who is always there for me, both in RL and in SL, even if she did take longer to put her outfit together than I did!
Alright everyone, I hope you have a wonderful evening, and until next time, TTFN *waves*
