A Baywatch Moment

A Baywatch Moment

Today I’m getting some type of Baywatch vibes going on here.  I know I’m completely off, but the red bathing suit is totally giving me those mid 90’s feels.  I may just start running in slow motion if I’m not careful.  Though that might mess up my ice cream situation, so I’m staying put for now!

Back to Redeux

Redeux is still going strong right now, with plenty of gifts for those of us in need of a bit of a pick-me-up.  Just join their free group, and you’ll gain access to a treasure trove of free gifts.  I picked up two items for my beachy ensemble:

  • FREE bikini by SLC sized for Altamura, Freya, Isis, Ebody Curvy, Legacy, Maitreya, Maitreya Petite, Legacy Perky, Hourglass, Tonic Fine, Tonic Minimizer, Tonic Curvy
  • FREE ice cream by Kawaii Couture (check out that mouthie!)

Redeux is running until April 30th, so you still have a few days.  You can also check out what Allison got HERE.

Slow-mo, here I come!

A Break from Beaudelaire

A Break from Beaudelaire

I’m feeling a bit collegiate today.  Perhaps the changing leaves are bringing me back to days spent in the quad with piles of books and a mug of Earl Grey tea, the library not too far off as I delved into tomes of Beaudelaire and Dante.  I think that this precise moment is the one where you have had just about enough of deciphering the depths of literature, and you just need to let go for a little while.  I think that moment came pretty often for me!

500 is an Excellent Sum

Blueberry are at it again!  This time, they’re showering their group members with 500L in store credit.  How nice is that?  You can use it to buy anything you like in the store, and the entire store is 50% off until the 14th.  I picked up the Blessed jacket, skirt and top which were just 125L each, leaving me a bit of coin left over for something else.  You can get your own store credit by joining the Blueberry group for 20L, then peeking in group notices.  Once you add the HUD and click, the store credit will be added to your account and you can buy what you like in store.   Yay!

Summer Blooms

The Colors of Summer

Hello, Fab Free!  Over at the Free Dove sim, there is a hunt going on that features prizes from three designers.  Each sponsor has hidden 5 gifts throughout Free Dove and 5 at their own main stores, so with a small investment of time and a bit of sleuthing, you could come away with 30 additions to your SL wardrobe.  Now that’s a major win in my book!

Sun-Kissed Hues of Summer

This bright and cheerful sleeveless dress is one of the free items to discover from MadCatCreations Boutique.  Featuring a jewel-style neckline, an off-center, gathered seam, and a slightly asymmetrical hem, this mini is super cute!  Its flirty length is perfect for a casual date night.  With the included HUD, you can choose from ten different texture options, so it’s like getting a collection of dresses in one package.  The Summer/Spring Colors dress is concealed somewhere on the Free Dove sim.  In order to collect each hunt item, you will need to be a member of the Free Dove Group, but the group is completely free to join.  The Free Dove August Hunt runs through August 31st, so there is still plenty of time for you to start searching.

Sizes/Mesh Body Compatibility

  • Altamura
  • Belleza Freya
  • eBODY Curvy
  • Hourglass
  • Kupra Original, Bimbo and Low
  • Legacy and Legacy Perky
  • Maitreya and Maitreya Petite
  • Tonic Curvy, Fine and Minimizer

Until next time, happy hunting!

A Trio For You

Sweet Spring

Hello Fabulouses and Happy Tuesday!  Ripley and I are popping in quickly to share a pretty spring frock with you that I picked up as a free group gift.  I hope you like it as much as I do!

It’s Really One of Three

This cream colored dress is the April gift for members of the Meva Update Group, but it’s just *part* of it.  Tucked inside the package are two other versions, so you get not one, but three dresses.  The sleeveless design, high neckline and scooped back make the Meva Flowers Dress 2 suitable for many occasions from casual to more dressy.   It all depends on how you choose to accessorize.  The fabric features delicate white blossoms scattered across a pale peach background, which creates a lovely design.  If this print is not up your alley, there is also a similar pattern scattered over a darker gray background, and a version which features a bold, vibrant floral motif.  The frock is designed exclusively for the Maitreya mesh body.  To pick up a copy for yourself, simply head over to the shop, activate the Meva Update Group tag and click the vendor.  There is a 100L join fee, but membership grants you access to 9 other gifts on the wall nearby.

Until my next post, happy shopping!

A Long Winter’s Dream

A Long Winter's Dream

Hey Hey Fabberoos!  I’m in a dreamlike state since it’s all starry and snowy and January has placed its spell on me.  You know, the whole “Long Winter’s Nap” thing is taking a hold of me, but I’d rather refer to it as a long Winter’s dream.  Doesn’t that sound more lovely?

Winter’s Sparkle

To get me in the mood for my long Winter’s dream, I found a really fantastic dress over at Seniha.  Their new group gift, Stevy, is all lovely ombré darkness, peppered with glitter.  There are two different colours in the box, my dark version, or a white option, as well as two little knotted sweaters that you can choose to wear or not.  It’s a great option for cooler SL days!  To get your own copy, just join the Seniha group for FREE and clickies!

Sizes

  • Freya
  • Hourglass
  • Isis
  • Maitreya

Star Showers

There’s something very poetic about this umbrella by Lovely Alien.  I love the idea of the sparkling stars that glimmer over your head.  Isn’t it pretty?  I got it for free over at GachaLand.  I joined the group for FREE at the landing point, and then took a walk about the event.  There are a whole bunch of little gifts waiting to be picked up, so do take a nip over there – you never know what you’ll find!

A Sweet Christmas

A Sweet Christmas

Here we are, my dears!  It’s Christmas Day, my favourite day! A day that is full of magic, happiness and delights.  In my tradition, Christmas comes full of food, and goodies, and staying up way past our bedtimes.  For that, you need to be stylish, and ready for all the little glories of Christmas.  I’m ready!  Are you?

A Bit of Sass

Sass have got their December group gift out, and it’s perfect for being fancy on Christmas.  I got mine by joining the group for 50 L and paying the vendor 1L, which was then returned to me.   If you haven’t had a chance to grab all the group gifts from Sass, now is your chance because they’ll all be gone in the new year!

Sizes

  • Freya
  • Hourglass
  • Maitreya

Merry Christmas to you all – thank you for being here, and for being a part of Fab Free!  We love you all to bits, darling readers!

Date Night Ready!

Black Lace

Happy Saturday, Fabulous Readers!  I have lots of things to get accomplished in RL today, but wanted to publish a quick post that features this sweet black lacy concoction. The Iris Dress is just perfect for a Saturday night date, and it’s free!

All Dolled Up

With sexy cut outs in the sides that show off a glimpse of skin and translucent lace, your avatar will look fantastic in this sexy frock.  Best of all, you won’t have to spend a fortune to look fabulous!  I love the floral pattern and the asymmetrical hemline of the skirt in my new dress.  While out in public, I made strategic use of the alpha layer of my Maitreya body to ensure my bits were concealed, but when back at home after a date night, the alpha layer won’t be needed! 😉 The free package includes both red and black versions of this mini for classic as well as mesh avatars.  To pick up a copy for yourself, simply teleport over to Julia’s Scandal, activate the group tag (it’s completely free to join!), and tap the vendor.  You (and your date) will glad you did!

What’s Included:

  • Classic Avatar (in black and red)
  • Alpha layer
  • Ebody (in black and red)
  • Freya (in black and red)
  • Hourglass (in black and red)
  • Maitreya (in black and red)
  • Physique (in black and red)
  • Venus (in black and red)

The pupster and I are off to complete as many errands and household chores as we can.  We’ll be back soon with another Fabulous Find.  Until next time, happy shopping!

A Gem of a Find

Opal

Hello Fabulouses!  I hope you are having a super weekend.  I’ve been feeling under the weather in RL for the past few days, but I’m finally getting better.  What is it about spring colds?  With the warmer weather, I thought I was in the clear as far as viruses go, but Mother Nature proved me wrong.  Ripley has been raring to go for his regular walks, so we decided to venture further down the trail of the Grow Your Awareness Hunt.  We have two more prizes to share with you tonight.  I hope you like them as much as I do!

The Hues of the Opal…

Both of my items today can be found in the Little Black Dress shop.  The generous designer has set out not one, but two free hunt gifts for the Grow Your Awareness Hunt.  First, the gorgeous Opal Dress features a sleeveless design, v-shaped neckline, and a figure flattering cut.  A pretty midsection accentuates your waist, and then flows down into a loosely ruffled skirt, which ends at mid thigh.  I love the iridescent floral pattern scattered across the raven colored background.  On higher graphics settings, you can see a myriad of colors in the design; on lower settings, the flowers are a pale silvery gray, which is also quite lovely.  You can add this frock to your spring wardrobe for free once you locate the hunt object in the shop.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

  • Fit mesh in XS, S, M, L, XL
  • Alpha layer for classic avatars
  • Belleza Freya, Isis and Venus
  • Ebody
  • Maitreya
  • Ocacin
  • Slink Hourglass and Physique
  • TMP
  • Tonic Curvy and Fine

…And the Petals of a Blossom

My elegant Enamel Flower Necklace is also concealed in the store.  I love the large, eye catching blossom suspended on a delicate silver chain.  The center stone can be easily customized with a few clicks of the mouse via a built in menu.  I opted for onyx, but there are 11 other selections to choose from, which makes this a versatile piece of jewelry.  I think it pairs beautifully with the Opal Dress, but I can also see myself wearing it with other outfits, too.  For just the cost of your time searching in the shop, you can scoop up a free new bauble for your collection.

I hope you get a chance to spend some time yourself wandering down the Grow Your Awareness Hunt path.  There are many eye catching delights just awaiting discovery.  Until next time, happy hunting!

Down the Valley Road

The Valley Road
Hello Fabulouses!  Have you been over to the event at 68 Main?  The pupster and I checked it out and scooped up some free gifties to share with our favorite readers.  In order to pick up both of these goodies for yourself, you need to be a member of the 68 Main ~ The Event ~ group, but it’s completely free to join.

Chiffon and Lace

My gorgeous Caprice Dress is a free gift from *Chiffon* that is available at 68 Main.  Featuring a lace trimmed, sleeveless bodice, and an optional chiffon flexi skirt attachment (not shown), this little number is perfect for a date night.   I love the subtle sheen of the fabric and the way the skirt falls loosely to the upper thighs.  The package includes versions for classic avatars as well as mesh avatars.

Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:

  • Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L (includes alpha layer)
  • Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
  • Maitreya
  • Slink Hourglass and Physique
  • TMP

Walk On

Strappy Heels

Also a free gift at 68 Main, this time from Shoenique, my Chinablu Heels showcased my feet and coordinated with my frock like they were specifically made for it.  With delicate criss-cross straps, gleaming leather, and cute little bows in the back, this sexy pair of heels allow your pedicure to shine.  They come in one hue, but black is quite versatile, and I can see myself wearing them quite often (in fact, I gave you all a secret preview of them in my last post {HERE}.

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.  Until next time, happy shopping!

Lilies in The Snow

Snapshot_001
Good morning Fabulous readers! Today I am showing off the stunning Arumm Lily Dress and flower accessories by Snowpaws that you can pick up as a free Peace on Earth Hunt prize.  All you need to do is locate that little globe hunt icon, and you’ll be set!

This beautiful set includes the flowing white dress in standard mesh sizing, chest lilies and the lily hair accessory.  I think you could get away with wearing this in the winter or the summer, and wouldn’t it be a great wedding dress? 😉  Just an idea!
