I’m loving what I’ve put together here today FabFree, so let’s cut right to the chase.
Spring Styles
S@bbia has done it again, with another top notch free group gift. This denim dress is perfect for looking sweet in the warmer temperatures, and you can get it free in the mainstore at S@bbia. The group is free to join and the dress is rigged for these sizes:
Fitmesh
Lara
Larax
Legacy Reborn
At The Fair
The Hair Fair, that is. If I’m being honest I probably would have visited the Hair Fair before it ends on June 15th, but it wasn’t the top of my priority list. But Beachy told me to go, so I went, and she was so right. Not only is it supporting a great cause, but there are loads of fantastic freebies – not at every booth, but at quite a lot of them and certainly enough to make it worthwhile for freebie collecting. There is no group join required and here’s what I’m wearing today, free from Hair Fair:
Free hair from BT::Hairproject:: which includes the cute style that you see here in a full fatpack of colors
Free bobby pins that I have in my mouth – they’re a little hard to see here but just the perfect Hair Fair Accessory, don’t you think?
It’s an easy stroll up one side of the street and down the other to visit all of the vendors. Make sure you visit!

Wren has been so wonderful blogging all the great hunts on the grid. Thanks to her post HERE I learned about the Flowers Time Hunt 6, which is a Harambee Hunt and I’m such a big fan of these. Even better, there’s a dress on this hunt that I adore and it’s not the one Wren picked to blog! lol
Swiss Cheese
My best friend used to say all the time that her brain was Swiss cheese. She used it as an excuse to not re-visit all the crazy stuff we did as teenagers. lol Trust me, she remembered. Swiss cheese is also a nickname for the Monstera plant, because of all the splits in their leaves. I grow and propagate these plants IRL, and they’re one of my favorites, so I was thrilled to see a dress in this hunt with a Monstera texture.
This is the Gionna dress by Amore Adore, and if you find the flower and purchase it for 3L you can bring it home with you. It’s a great fit, and comes rigged in a ton of sizes:
Erika
Kupra
Lara X/ Petite X/ Maitreya/ Petite
Legacy/Bombshell
Gen X Classic/Gen X Curvy
Reborn/Waifu
The Flowers Time Hunt 6 benefits the Harambee Project in Kenya and your 3 little linden will actually go a long way. The Flowers Time 6 Hunt is open until May 28th, and you can find all the info and hunt guide located HERE.

I want to take a moment to appreciate Arkona. This store is focused on representing cultures from around the world, and I really enjoy that. One of the best parts of Second Life, in my opinion, is the ability to ‘travel’ if you don’t have the time or money IRL to do so.
Paradise found in Mexico
Today’s free gift is an ode to the Mexican culture. I love this top. You can pick it completely free by joining the SLF&O group for free and touching the gift. I absolutely love the color palette of this top! This top is sized for:
Maitreya/Petite
Legacy/Perky
Kupra
Reborn
Erika
Classic
When you land at Arkona, you’re actually going to be in a yard for Facedesk, which I think is the parent company. Just simply walk across the wooden bridge, and you’ll see the top on the front window of the store. I wouldn’t put this off, last time I blogged a skirt it disappeared the next day!
Repeat
Just a quick mention, my skirt, which matches perfectly, is an older group gift by Osmia. Aline blogged it back in 2021 when it was in world here, but I found it on Marketplace for 1L. I wanted to mention it, incase anyone wanted to matchy-match 😉 The Sadie skirt comes sized for:
Maitreya
Legacy
Kupra
Freya

What works for you Fabbies? When you need to nourish your soul and renew your faith? I generally require a lot of downtime, and coffee, and surrounding myself with plants is always a plus. Plants show us that you can make a grand come back, from nearly dead and shriveled to booming with life. Just today we noticed the tree limb we lost in the hurricane (but saved for the cat) is sprouting. A random log on the porch, no roots, no ground, is sprouting leaves. That in itself, is bringing me some much needed strength.
Self-care
Armed with a tummy full of coffee, I grabbed my purse and headed out across the lovely regions in SL to take some pictures, always good for the soul. I found the perfect spot, a shelter from the wind, surrounded by plants, listening to the sounds of the ocean. Ahhhh, peace.
Of course I did all this dressed in my new free outfit, because retail therapy is real, and it’s even better when you don’t have to spend any money 😉 I recently picked up this new group gift from AMUI, this denim dress with the mesh netting in front. It does cover all the bits, but barely, you’ll surely need a C-string to wear it in any G rated areas 😉 The AMUI group is free to join, and each month she puts out a free gift and a $150L gift card. It’s a twofer! The Jeans Me dress is sized for:
Lara X/Petite X/Maitreya/Petite
Legacy/Bombshell/Perky
Erika
Prima/Prima Petite
Kupra/Natural
Star Mesh Body
Reborn/Waifu
If the shoe fits
Funny thing, the last time I blogged a group gift from AMUI, I also wore a new group gift from N-Core and today is no different. There’s a new gift for group members, the Marlene shoe, which I did a poor job showing you in the picture. lol I’ll add a graphic below so you can get a good look. The Marlene shoes come sized for:
Maitreya
Legacy
Erika
Kupra
Reborn
** Looks like N-Core quickly put a cost on their group join again, sigh. It’s no longer free to join, is 99L. **
The shoe gift is a full fatpack to change 3 different parts of the shoe. There’s a few other styles on the wall you can pick up at N-Core too 😉

A plastic purse full of mojitos and some puppies? YAS! The song I used in the title is all about a woman who rescues some pups while out having a drink 😉 Anyway, this outfit and these shoes are a good fit together too, so here’s where you can get both!
AMUI has a new group gift for July and it’s this adorable Linette set. It comes with the top and skirt and each can be worn separately. It only comes in the white/denim, which is perfect, because I’d style it that way anyway. What a cute freebie, and in my size too! It comes sized for:
Lara X/PetiteX/Maitreya/Petite
Legacy/Perky
Kupra
Reborn/Waifu
The added bonus is that AMUI also gives out a free 150L gift card as part of the group gift, so you can pick that up too, it’s a two-fer! Each gift card needs to be spent by the end of the month, I think. You generally have to chip in a few lindens to get the outfit of your choice, but you do get to choose it, and then it’s like getting 2 group gifts 😉 The AMUI group is free to join!
Hot feet
Since it’s too hot to go barefoot, I’m rescuing these puppers and taking them home to the grass. I also had to put on shoes (ugh) but I recently got new ones. The shoes I’m wearing are the newest group gift from N-Core. This is my double dip group gift post because there are 2 pair of shoes as the N-Core group gift. One pair in the leopard print, and another pair in a zebra print. The N-Core group has come way down in price, it’s currently 99L to join (when I joined it was 350L), and there are a few other gifts you can snatch up at the same time 😉 These come sized for:
Erika
Gen X
Legacy
Maitreya
Reborn
Kupra
And there you have it. A sweet and simple summer outfit, perfectly suitable for kidnapping rescuing random puppies while you’re out 😉

Hello Fab Free! If you’ve ever seen the movie Ocean’s Eleven you’re familiar with Brad Pitt’s character in the film and the fact that he always had snacks. I find that very relatable. lol Thankfully Second Life makes it so easy to be indulgent. Today I got to indulge my fondness for food, and fashion.
Le Poppycock
This delicious looking pink drink and the corresponding bento pose are one of the many gachas from the “Guilty Pleasures” gacha set by Le Poppycock currently featured at The Pose Fair. These gacha poses are all various sweets and savory treats that I couldn’t resist spending a few lindens on. This Le Poppycock gacha is just 69 lindens per play, and since they are transferrable you can trade them. The Pose Fair is open until September 28th. Also, don’t forget there are freePose Fair group gifts!
Afrotay
Now for the fashion! This cute red dress is a free group gift by Afrotay. I couldn’t resist the stylized snake graphic. I think it’s so interesting and unique. I also really like the way the shoulder straps come together in the back, and I am wishing I’d taken a photo of it to share with you. The dress comes in a pretty bright yellow color as well as this vibrant red. The Afrotay group is free to join, and there are multiple group gifts available.
For the Love of…Science started August 22nd and continues until September 28th. The FTLO group is a new group of hunters and designers. Each month the hunt theme will change, but the group will stay the same. .:it’s Cake:. is the starting location for the “For the Love OF…Science” hunt. In no particular order, here’s all of the prizes in the hidden “For the Love OF…Science” Robots.
