All The Small Things

Oh hi there, you seem to have caught my stuffing my face. Oh who am I kidding, I’ve been stuffing my face all morning. For some reason I wasn’t really feeling the weekend sales (shock and awe!) so I spent a pleasant morning wandering around the Asian Pacific Heritage Festival. Everyone knows that the best part of going to any festival is visiting the booths to see what they’re giving away, and EATING. I was able to partake in both activities.

Festive

Yes, a lot of the booths at the Asian Pacific Heritage Festival are giving out free gifts. I gathered some cute little things, including the yumminess that I’m currently pigging out on and also these fab earrings. The earrings are lotus from Zaara (they come in gold or silver) and the food is Sake Ikura don by Mamere. It is wonderfully animated and includes the holdable bowl, holdable chopsticks, a décor version, and a dispenser. All for free and no group join is required!

The festival runs for the entire month of May, with the last day being on May 31st.

Fashionable

I obvs needed a new dress to wear to the festival, so before I headed over I stopped at the Petry Model Store. There is so much good stuff there! The first room when you walk in is full of 30L items, some even full outfits. Keep going into the store and there are free group gifts, and free gifts for pretty much every group you can think of (including FabFree!). I honestly loved every single thing I grabbed. Anyway, this dress is the free gift for the Inside Your Inventory group, which is free to join. It comes in with a HUD full of denim colors and sizes for:

• Hourglass
• Maitreya
• Physique
• Sis
• Venus
• Freya

That’s all from me for now, FabFree! I hope you’re enjoying your weekend!

Hide & Seek

I was playing a little game of hide and seek with my friends. Yeah, I’m way too old for that, but who cares? We all know I’m a bit childish. Anyways, I hid in the cupboard but eventually my friends found me. Bummer!

The Perfect Hiding Place

Sometimes you just need to hide and retreat into yourself to feel better, you know? Well, this great cupboard by Zigana has the perfect solution for that. The cupboard is only 1 Linden on the Marketplace. Not only is it a beautiful cupboard, but you can also crawl inside it and it has adorable little animations. The doors even close after you get inside it! This is one of many dollarbies you can find by Zigana on the Marketplace. I am also showing a barn skybox and a maroccan table made by Zigana as well- most of the items on their Marketplace store cost 0 or 1 Linden because this amazing designer retired in-world some time ago. What a treat!

The Caroline Dress

Caroline is wearing the Caroline dress at Evolve, and it’s currently on sale for only 55 Linden! I’m not sure how long this offer is on for so you better rush over there if you want it! The dress comes in dark purple, pink, and a light and dark teal. It’s gorg! 

Sizes Included

• Freya 
• Lara
• Legacy
• Hourglass

I also matched the dress with an adorable little silver hearts choker from Boutique#187. I just love it. It matches this whole look perfectly! The choker is just out for 0L, free of charge. 

Dany

I am so in love with this hair, and it reminds of Daenerys from Game of Thrones! Guess what? It’s a freebie from Alli&Ali Designs and I won it on one of their many MM boards at this location. 

Dollarbies at Lorien

Finally, my rainbow nails- which are small in my photo- are only 1 L at Lorien. These nails are omega only. They have a number of dollarbies at the entrance of the store, so go check them out! It can’t hurt to shop when the items are so cheap. 😉

Have fun hiding, FabFree!

Accessorize

An Accessories & Hair Day

Today is an accessories day. I love adding little trinkets to my AVI, and it’s something I’ve developed a love for over time. Sometimes it takes for forever to make that necklace or earring to fit just right, but it’s so worth it! I hope you all enjoy little trinkets, items, and jewels you can use to accessorize your AVI because that’s what I’m mainly showing today! I will also later announce how to get a whole LOAD of free hair. 

The Perfect Cross

My necklace is a gorgeous cross necklace which is a free group gift at Finer Threads. This necklace is so detailed. It’s a must have! It only comes in one colour, but the shine of the gold on this chain is stunning. 

Little Mandalas

The gorgeous earrings are also a free group gift at Zaara. simply join the free group and the earring are yours in gold and silver. They look like little Mandalas, which I love.  

Did someone say Functional Demo?

Have you ever heard of a functional or wearable demo? It’s basically a gift, disguised as a demo! What it means is there is no demo box attached to the item, so you can wear it all you like. The beautiful hair I have on is a functional demo from Alli&Ali Designs. I grabbed it on the Marketplace. In fact, Alli&Ali Designs has almost every hair up on their marketplace store with a “functional demo”- a free gift of each hair in one colour only. The colours shown in the ads are the same colour your receive with the free gift. This is a very generous offer from Alli&Ali Designs. The full version (paid) include more colours, but to make the demo fully wearable is a treat! Since Alli&Ali Designs has over 900 hairstyles in their marketplace store for both men and women, so you can get a LOT of one-colour hairs for free. I’m still loading up and picking what I want.  😉 The lovely hair I am wearing today is called Viola and it comes in red. Check out this link to see the demos of all the hairs which are fully wearable in the colour shown in the ad. 

Enjoy, FabFree!

Pandora’s Box

The End of May

Hey FabFree! It’s already the end of the month and it’s been such an eventful month. I have one more event with free gifts to share, and you definitely have time to go before it closes if you rush! 

The Pandora Fair

The Pandora Fair is a brand new event in SL, and this month they have a few gifts in some, not all, of the booths. I am not really sure what the theme of this event is about, but it reminds me of the myth of Pandora’s box. There’s some lovely finds at this event, and one of those is this awesome dress by zOOm. It’s completely free– just join the event’s free group and the gift is yours! The dress includes panties and it comes in several colours. The event ends on May 31st, so head over quickly to get these gifts before they disappear!

Have Fun, FabFree!

A Gift From a Dove

Hello Fabulouses and Happy Saturday!  The pupster and I are popping in quickly to share this maxi skirt outfit that I picked up as a free group gift over at The Free Dove.  Way back when I was new to SL, someone introduced me to this marvelous shop, where I began my love affair with SL fashion.  Every so often, I return to check out the new arrivals, and this visit did not disappoint!  I came away with a swagger in my step and several new additions to my inventory.

She Has a Gypsy Soul

The Gypsy Swagger Outfit from Eclectique features a halter style top paired with a maxi skirt with a definite Bohemian vibe.  I love the deep, rich color scheme of this gift!  The two pieces can be worn separately, which adds to the versatility of the outfit.  The skirt features a darker waist panel with a drawstring bow hanging down, and a patterned fabric which ends in a slightly flared hemline.  The solid wine colored top echoes the predominant hue from the skirt.  You can pick up this boho-styled set for free, just for being a member of the Free Dove group.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Maitreya
• Slink Hourglass
• Slink Physique

I hope you are having a lovely weekend!  Until my next post, happy shopping!

Pool Side

Hello hello Fab Free’rs! I’m glad you’re here. This cute little pup and I have been having some fun by the pool. Being pools side gave me the perfect excuse to wear this cute little outfit from Tiar. It’s one of the many current Fabulously Free in SL group gifts. I also picked up this cute upper-body tattoo by Primal on the Marketplace after Love pointed it out to me. I really like the freckle-like hearts. I hope you enjoy these fabulous freebies!

The Outfit – This cute little two-piece is perfect for lounging by the pool or walking along the beach. It comes in several mesh sizes and is free to all Fabulously Free in SL group members. You can pick it up at Tiar while wearing your Fabulously Free in SL group tag. At the Tiar landing point you can take the teleporter to the gifts area, or just head strait to the back of the store. This Fab Free gift along with a gift for the guys is waiting with the Tiar group gift, camping chairs, and Lucky Letter boards.
Mesh Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Belleza (Isis, Freya, Venus), Slink (Hourglass, Physique)

The Tattoo – I really like that this tattoo by Primal gives you little hearts across your chest and shoulders, as well as on your hands. I think it’s a very dainty tattoo. It is free on the Marketplace. With this free gift you’ll get Omega appliers and classic system layers in Faded, Normal, and Fresh options. The system layers make this tattoo suitable for classic avatars as well as mesh.

P.S. Two of the pool-side props are Marketplace freebies/cheapies I wanted to let you in on as well. I’ll link them in the credits with their cost so you can pick them up as well!

Dream On

I’m not much of a napper, but I could go for one right about now. I went to the Epiphany earlier. I’m exhausted. That is such a great event, but a little overwhelming because there is sooooo much awesome stuff. And gachas, of course! Who doesn’t love gachas? Nobody, that’s who. And this round there are a bunch of presents scattered about. You don’t need to join a group to get them or anything, just give them a click and they’re yours for free! I’m wearing two of them today.

Sexy Dress

This dress is quite the eye catcher. It is the Epiphany free gift from Luas. I thought it would be cute as a bathing suit cover up too, but couldn’t be bothered to dig out a suit. I’m sleepy, okay? So the applier undies that I’m always wearing will be just fine for my nap. But don’t be fooled, this dress is super hot and the texture is fabulous. It comes in 4 sizes: Freya, Hourglass, Isis, and Maitreya.

Pretty Shoes

I love the pretty floral pattern on these flats. The fit is a Maitreya exclusive. You’ll find them at Epiphany as the free gift from Breathe. I suppose it’s time for me to kick them off and get more comfy, but they’re so cute that I don’t want to!
