Meet-Cute

It’s an excellent day for a trip to an art gallery. I find that most days are, but today seems to be a particularly arty type of day.  I’ll just wander about pretending I know things about art, and maybe I’ll have one of those moments that only happens in movies where some extremely handsome and tall fellow stands beside me and comments on the brush strokes of a certain painting and we fall desperately in love.   Stranger things have happened… especially in SL!

It’s Magic!

The Free Dove is hosting a heck of a lot of fun hunting this month, with not one, but two hunts – and lots of free gifts.  The Caring Hands hunt is what I focused on, with two prizes at The Free Dove from each designer that is participating.  I was particularly taken with this pretty and somewhat holographic dress by WitchCraft.  Isn’t it cool?  To get it, just join The Free Dove group for free, then look around for the little Easter baskets which contain all the gifts.  You can find all the information about the hunts going on right HERE.

Sizes

  • Kupra
  • Alice
  • Altamura
  • Freya
  • Hourglass
  • Petite
  • Maitreya

Therapy

The artwork I’m pondering so deeply (or you know, waiting for my prince Charming to appear) is free courtesy of ArTherapy.  At their location, you’ll find a little art gallery nestled in a garden, with some fun free gifts to pick up while you’re there.  You can also visit their coffee shop, Brewed Awakening (such a good name) next door for some other gifts too…and of course, some coffee.  Join the free group and you can get these two canvases to decorate your abode.

Ooh, here comes a candidate!  How’s my hair?

Conjuring

conjuring_001

Hey Gang!

Just recently I was casting a spell (as I always do), and this photo was taken just before things went horribly wrong…  I mean, I was pretty oblivious (as usual!), and had no idea how powerful my conjuring spell really was!  Huh!  I guess I pack a wallop!

Enamored

I’ve discovered a wonderful “new to me” shop thanks to our own Ms. Julianna!  Honestly, I am enamored with most everything in the shop and to my delight discovered they have a discounted area with gorgeousness I can share with y’all on the blog.

This shop is called Oubliette and this adorbs dress I am wearing is from that area.  It was only 50L and I am so in love with it. (Y’all know I love pink but did you know I love anything celestial too?  IE Moons, stars, suns)  I felt so magical in it that I whipped out my spell book and well, started casting spells!  This dress fits:

  • Freya
  • Hourglass
  • Isis
  • Classic
  • Maitreya
  • Physique
  • TMP
  • Venus

Not sure what the …. person?  Behind me is wearing.  0.o

More soon!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

Hey, FabFree! I know I am a few days early, but Happy Halloween! I am not sure if I will be able to post on the actual day but I want to send everyone good wishes and I hope that you all have a fun holiday. I have more awesome Halloween stuff to show you tonight. This time I am showing off some poses, props, a scarf and a witch hat.

A Generous Gift for All

PosEd Poses currently has a great pose and set of props, shown on the left of my photo out for free, no group join required. The gift includes the pumpkin, sign and the raven sitting on my arm. This is perfect for taking your Halloween pictures this year. A version for men and women is included. 

Miz Witchie

Another great freebie I am showing is my witch hat, which is a free group gift at Witchcraft. The hat inclues a hud that allows you to chage the colours of the decoration on the hat to different colours. Wicked!

A Cute Skully Scarf

Finally, the cute little scarf is a free group gift for members of the Fashionable group at Dreams Store. I love this little scarf because it matches outfits well. 

Enjoy, FabFree!

Spooky Season

Spooky Season

See ya later September, here comes October!  It’s time to stop pretending that we’re not ready for all things Fall… and Halloween!  Sometimes we put on a brave front and pretend we’re eschewing it all…too early and all that jazz… but once October rears its head, all pretenses are thrown out the window!  Plus, it’s Shop & Hop Time!

Boo!

It’s Shop & Hop !  We always look forward to this grandiose event when it comes around, and though it’s huge and a giant undertaking to visit all the stalls, you can’t help but marvel at how many great free gifts there are, and how many fabulous deals await.   You’ll need to put several hours aside for this one, it’s the monster of all events.  If you’ve never done any Shop & Hops before, you’re in for some fun (and maybe a bit of hard work too…) to get these goodies, no need to join a group, just buy the gifts for 0L, or click on the packages and they’ll be delivered to you.  Here’s what struck my fancy:

  • FREE dress by Pixicat sized for Freya, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Maitreya, Maitreya Flat, Maitreya Petite & Hourglass
  • FREE shoes by Essenz sized for Belleza, Legacy & Maitreya
  • FREE drink by Dahlia 
  • FREE nails by Witchcraft sized for Maitreya, Legacy, Belleza & Slink and an HUD to change to 6 different colours

Now, Shop & Hop doesn’t officially open until tomorrow, but if you want early access, just join the official group by pasting the code below into local chat and head on over.  Also, if you’d like to see which stores are participating and get a direct slurl to each booth, check out the offical blog post from Linden Labs HERE.

Quiet Time

Quiet Time
Sometimes we all need a quiet moment, to just breathe. So this will be a quickie.

Recharging The Batteries

Second Life mirrors RL in many ways, one being the hurry, hurry, ding, ding (as my mom used to call it.) Trying to get to the event that is full, the next sale, picking up GG’s. TP here, TP there. You know what I’m saying. Right? Jacx is taking time in her garden to relax and unwind, in a bright neon sweatshirt to lift her spirts. The sweatshirt is the free September GG, that comes with a 6 neon color hud. This shirt is from a new to me creator -Slackr. Group fee 50L to join, with other gifts available.

Sizes

  • Legacy
  • Maitreya

That’s a wrap for today. Till next time

Trick or Treat has left me with tons of extra candy that I seem to have dropped on the floor. The 5 seconds rule still doesn’t apply even with candy.

Woodland Witch

Woodland Witch

Sometimes there’s no other way to describe a place except to say that it feels homey. I feel that way about this magical little setting I put together with a few of the Fantasy Forest Hunt prizes. The Fantasy Forest Hunt is running through the end of May, so there’s still a bit of time to get hunting. For my witchy woodland setting I picked up the gifts from The Artist Shed, Collect, and Tentacle Experiment.  Each prize is just 5 lindens, and you’ll be hunting for a small grouping of mushrooms.

The Artist Shed

This detailed armchair with its decadent floral fabric is the Fantasy Forest Hunt prize at The Artist Shed. The chair is 6 land impact prims, and has a single unisex sit pose. It’s also copy, so you’ll be able to rez multiple chairs if you wish. This FFH gift is just 5 lindens.

Hunt HintIf a branch falls in the forest, I mean store…does anyone remember?

Collect 

The carved pillar and tree with hanging lanterns giving light to this setting is the 5 linden Fantasy Forest Hunt gift at Collect. It too has really nice details with only 8 land impact prims. After all, what witchy retreat would be complete with out a light to conjure by.

Hunt HintFantasies and Daydreams are fuel for many a book. 

Tentacle Experiment 

Tying everything together is the Fantasy Forest Hunt prize at Tentacle Experiment. Also just 5 linden and 5 land impact prims, this FFH prize is full of witchy whimsy. It includes the trio of rocks, broom, books, and animated grass. The grass seems to be subtly waving in the wind, or perhaps it is the magic emanating from the books and broom that causes the grass to dance.

Hunt HintEating mushrooms can give trippy effects.

Come to the Dark Side

Come to the Dark Side

Good evening FabFree. I hope your isolation is going better than mine. I think I may be going stir crazy. But we solider on, right?

Walk on the Dark Side

I popped over to the Dark Side event today. There are tons of great designers all letting their dark sides run free. If you’re looking for witchy and eerie… this is the place! Plus most of the venders have put out a deeply discounted gift for us!

My new little chilling frock is the 10L gift from WitchCraft. I am so in love with the lace and ruffles. Sort of LolliGoth! The Jasmine dress comes with a HUD for six color changes.

Sizes Included

  • Belleza – Freya, Isis, Venus
  • Maitreya
  • SLink – Physique
  • TMP

Seeing Stars

My nifty new boots are from the Dark Side Event as well. Just 10L will net you these starry sky boots from Grumble. They have a cute little peep toe so make sure your toes are polished up because you’ll want to wear these everywhere.

  • Belleza
  • Maitreya
  • SLink

The Dark Side event runs until April 30 so hurry over, my dears.

All About the Boots

All About the Boots

It’s true, sometimes it’s all about the boots, and maybe the pumpkins too. At least that holds true for this post. Eudora has a detailed pair of ankle boots as their latest group gift, and they are so worth the effort. With Halloween afoot I couldn’t help but be a little festive. I happened on these free pumpkins at Boutique 187. Keep reading for more details about each of these fall freebies, or scroll to the end for full credits with links. Happy Halloween Fab Free!

Eudora

Right now at Eudora you can pick up these super cute boots for free with the Eudora group tag. There is a one time join fee of 50 linden for the Eudora group. These boots come with a color change hud that let you pick between black or brown for the main part of the boot, and a few options for the bottom of the shoe, the heel, and even the metal bits.

Size Included: Maitreya

Boutique 187

Boutique 187 has some fun Halloween themed freebies out, including these decorative pumpkins. No group is needed for this free gift, however I’d hurry if you want them. They may not be available much longer.
