Well, if it’s not Beachy, running out of cat songs to title her posts with.  I’ve got a new group gift from DAMI and it’s certainly screaming MEOW!

Ring my bell

DAMI is one of those stores I’ve been a fan of for a long time.  I first met them through my gacha craze and have followed ever since.  There’s some crazy good streetwear and multi-layered original mesh outfits in the store.  They do a lot of outfits where you alpha out your arms and hands because you’re holding something or posed.

Twice a year DAMI has a big sale, and puts out a new group gift.  Starting now until February 14th, DAMI is having their winter sale, with 40% off most things in the store (excluding the last 3 months of releases).  So that also means there’s a new group gift, and of course I’m here to show it off!

They generally take one of their releases and do an exclusive re-color for the group gift, so today I’m wearing the DAIN outfit in pink.  It comes with 3 pieces, the posed fluffy sweater, the fluffy skirt, and the panties holding up the kitty tail (cat toy included lol).  This outfit is rigged for:

  • Legacy
  • Reborn

The legacy version did fit my Lara X fine but I put on my Reborn for this post.  The group is 99L to join and there are a fair amount of other free full outfit gifts up on the wall once you join.

Peace ☮️

Autumn Town Leaves

Autumn Town Leaves

Well, happy birthday to meeeeeeee!  Yesterday, I logged on to SL (at work, where I was on my day off, because that’s my RL) and the first notice I saw was that DAMI’s semi-annual group gift was out, and the store is having an end of summer sale, everything (except the last 3 months of releases) is 25% off.

Making the best of it

The DAMI gift and sale definitely brightened my spirits after having to haul into work for 14 hours on my birthday. lol  Then, I have such lovely friends who sent me prezzies and lindens so I can actually shop the sale, YAY ME! (and thank you! ♥)  I ran to the store, and grabbed my new gift (the old ones are still up too) and grabbed a bunch of demos so I can shop once I’m home.

If you don’t know DAMI, they were one of my favorite stores back when gachas were super popular, and I’ve followed her ever since.  She does some incredible baggy streetwear, almost all of it has a posed arm, and it’s just delightfully original.  The latest group gift is a special textured version of the SUSU Outfit, which includes my arms posed holding my leather bag.  It’s sized for:

  • Maitreya
  • Legacy
  • Reborn

The DAMI group is only 99L to join and the gifts are twice a year, and always a full outfit.  When you land, TP up to the store from the sign and the gifts are over the desk.  Look around, you’re going to love the clothes!

Oh it’s my happy dance time, Fabbies!  Freebies are a little slim at the moment, and I spent a whole day looking for stuff to blog for you all.  Then yesterday I logged on and my one of my favorite stores, DAMI,  dropped her group gift, one of 2 we get each year, and I couldn’t love it any more!

Drippin’ 💧

DAMI is a designer I’ve been following my entire time on SL.  I was introduced through her gachas, and I still spend time hunting down older gacha outfits from the store on MP.  I joined the DAMI group years ago, and on the regular she’s been putting out a group gift twice a year, in conjunction with a sale.  It’s currently time for her Spring sale, which is 25% off everything outside of the last 3 months’ releases.  That also means it’s time for a new group gift, and it is fantastic.  DAMI has a mix of styles, and I adore them all.  There’s sweet summery dresses with sweaters, there’s heavy winter coats and skirts, and then, there’s her streetwear line.  Every time there’s a cool pair of baggy jeans on a weekend sale, Emma and Aurora send me the link to make sure I’ve seen them, so you can imagine how happy I am with this gift.  Not only does she do some incredible baggy clothes, she also has an original style.  Most of her outfits come posed, meaning your hand is in your pocket, or it’s holding a coffee or something.  You need to alpha out an arm and remove your nails to wear most of her designs.  This HANNA outfit is everything.  It’s just one color and it’s rigged for :

  • Maitreya
  • Legacy
  • Reborn

Now, I have a mix of old Maitreya and Lara X outfits from DAMI and it doesn’t much matter which I wear, since you’re going to alpha a lot of your body anyway 😉   The DAMI group is only 99L to join and there’s 4 other gifts up on the wall for you to grab.  The sale is on only until May 28th, so get yourself over there soon!

Poser

The term ‘poser’ was an insult back when I was young, and it meant imposter.  It was an awful thing to call someone back then 😉  These days, the term poser can be used to describe what I do half my day in SL! LOL  One of my favorite pose makers is Loel.  I think she makes some of the cutest and most fun poses on the grid.  When you purchase from Loel you’ll always get sitting and standing poses in a pack, and they’re all so adorable.  She’s given us a new group gift for May, called Mayfly, and it’s 3 poses, one standing, one sitting, one lying.  The Loel group is free to join, and you can find Mayfly on the front desk.  There’s also a balloon dog on the desk full of older gift poses you can grab too.

The Froth of Fall

The Froth of Fall

I love to take a summery dress and warm it up for cooler temperatures.  It kind of extends your summer wardrobe to the fall and beyond.   Ooh, it’s kinda windy out here today…

Eternally

Over at Eternus I found their lucky boards stocked with some pretty pastel dresses.  I thought to myself that perhaps they weren’t exactly in season (for the northern hemisphere, I’ll grant you) but they are just too pretty not to show off.  I won this frothy, lacy dress in no time.  You only need to wait for your letter to pop up on the board, as no group join is required to win these lovely items, making them completely free.  They may change up soon though, so go now!

Sizes

  • Juicy Boobs
  • Legacy
  • Maitreya
  • Perky
  • Petite
  • Push-Up
  • Reborn

I’ll rock this look all the way til Christmas at this rate!

I Got My Rock Moves

I Got My Rock MovesI went to The Warehouse event as soon as it opened and quickly put together a list of the things I wanted to show you from the event. When I came back to the list today to finally take a picture and stuff, I realized that I couldn’t remember what I’d selected. And I have to say, well done two weeks ago me. I like this one a lot.

The Warehouse

I really enjoy The Warehouse, it’s such a great vibe. There is also a mountain of free gifts to be had this round, and that too is something that I enjoy. There’s still plenty of time to visit and it’s so entirely worth it. You’ll need to join the free The Warehouse Sale group and then there’s a free gift at each booth in celebration of The Warehouse‘s 4th birthday. Check out the free gifts that I’ve got on today:

  • Free face deco jewelry from Ersch, in a fatpack of gem colors
  • Free necklace from Azaran, also in a fatpack of colors with some nice customization options
  • Free hoodie from Gild, rigged for Lara, LaraX, Legacy, and Meshbody
  • Free shorts from dami that are actually part of a set with a nice top too, and which come in sizes for Lara, Legacy, and Legacy Perky

The fun and freebies will vanish when the event round ends on September 18th.

Oh happy day! I love those days where you’ve been looking and hoping and wishing for one of your favorite stores to drop a new gift, and today is that day!

Boho Chic

Dami has been one of my favorite stores since the good ‘ol gacha days.  I still search every gacha market for goodies from Dami when I go.  So yeah, a new gift dropped on us yesterday afternoon and I couldn’t be happier.  This is the REINA outfit and it comes with the sweater and pants in these textures.  The more I wore it the more I loved it.  The sweater comes as most Dami clothes do, with an arm in the pocket pose.  It’s also really beneficial to have mesh nails that you can wear on separate hands for these occasions lol.

The REINA outfit comes sized for:

  • Lara X/Petite X
  • Legacy/Perky
  • Reborn

There’s also some older gifts that I’ve blogged before with the new gifts.  When you land, there’s a sign to ‘click for more’ and it will TP you up to the store.  The gifts are on the wall over the desk.  The Dami group is 99L to join and you’ll come home with some of the cuuuuuuuuuutest stuffs!

Coming Soon to Fab Free

You ever have those weird premonitions about something?  Do they usually pan out for you?  I’d say more often than not they pan out for me, and today’s blog post is near proof.

Last night I had this thought “It should be time for a winter GG from Dami, and doesn’t she usually have a sale too?”  So I TP’d over to the store, and nothin’.  Bah.  I grabbed a bunch of demos though, because I love Dami’s soft fluff, and her baggy street style and that so many of her designs involve posed arms, and hands in pockets and I just love it!

Then it happened!

I log on to FLICKR, and the first thing I see is a new group gift and sale from Dami!  Whaaaaaat?  Maybe I’m psychic afterall? 😉  So here is Dami’s new group gift, this soft, fluffy sweater in pink (and a version in brown).  Isn’t it a beauty?  It indeed does have an auto pose putting your hands in your pockets too!  The Dami group is just 99L to join and currently last year’s summer and winter GG are still up.  You may remember me blogging last year’s winter GG here.

I paired the sweater with some gorgeous BOM lingerie I got in a hunt years ago by Alaskametro, that I use all the time, and with some jeans I bought at Dami’s sale.  The sale is ‘Up to 50% off’ – but the thing about Dami is, you usually get 2-3 looks with one purchase.  Her jeans and pants come with 2-3 textures in each pack, and her outerwear generally comes with color hud to change the included inner wear.

The sale only lasts for 5 days, so make sure you find some time to grab some demos.  Her clothing comes rigged for:

  • Maitreya
  • Legacy
  • Reborn

**Disclaimer** There are some styles that are not rigged for Maitreya.  Make sure you demo.  The bonus?  Most all of her Lara 5.3 and Legacy rigs fit Lara X.

Fall Into November

ABC_1215

Yep, that’s me, searching anywhere I can for any hint of cooler weather!  I wanted to show you all this gift from DAMI though, because I already see so many people getting excited for the holidays, and hear about so many of you freezing your buns off already!   I won’t blather on about how jealous I am again (sure, sure) but you know 😉

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Yep, already!  The clock strikes midnight on November 1, and suddenly it’s Christmas commercials and Christmas music everywhere!  Then, here I come in a Christmas outfit!  DAMI has winter group gifts and summer group gifts and there’s 2-3 outfits in each category for you to get.  This cozy knit and skirt were from last Christmas, but somehow I completely missed it, and love it, so now you can too.  The DAMI group is just 99L to join and you can collect both seasons gifts for yourself.  The gift comes in the 3 main body sizes:

  • Maitreya
  • Reborn
  • Legacy

I took my picture at the Nom Nom Cafe, so I have my hot cup of coffee while I wander looking for winter.  Andika makes amazingly detailed holdable and dispenser food and drinks (along with poses and props).  The group is 150L to join but that will get you a whole kitchen full of food and drink you can serve your guests and take with you on your outings!

A Trip to Ontiville

A Trip to Ontiville

Well, my dear readers – time for something a little different today!  Have you ever thought that you’d like to have a little spot to live in SL, but you’re not exactly flush or in the position to spend Lindens?  There are people who totally understand and have created an awesome experience and sim that can get you just that…without the cash!

Ontiville!

I was IMed the other day by the lovely Elba while I was doing my rounds and she told me all about the new sim her and her partner have been working on.  It’s called Ontiville, and it’s goal is to create a community where you can be provided with free rent and goods for those who aren’t in the position to spend Lindens.  How does that work, you ask?  Well, it means that you can get a virtual job in their city, complete quests, or afk in a coin hotspot to earn city coin.  You can even explore the sim to find some hidden coins!  Sounds like a lot of fun to me, and could be an excellent experience for those who are looking for ways to spend their time in SL.  Elba also mentioned that the first week of rental is a free trial – which is pretty darn cool.   Do check out Ontiville, and see what they’ve got going on.  I was accosted by some friendly residents while I was there and got a very nice feel from the place.  If you’re looking for more info, you can check out their website HERE

Oh, and a Freebie

I also thought I’d mention that the Lucky Boards at Tentacio have been changed out, and four new ones with cute accessories are there just waiting for the taking.  No need to join a group, these boards are free for everyone!  I got this pile of magical books and beakers while I was there which fit in perfectly with the little book shop behind me.  Good luck!

See you in Ontiville!
