Happy Tuesday, Fabulous Readers!  Gus and I are back to share three free group gifts and a budget-friendly sweater dress that we picked up on the Marketplace.  The gifts were all set out in November, and are still available at the time of publication, but I don’t know how much longer they will be available.  If you like them, don’t delay!

Glossy Lips

I’m always searching for the perfect shade of lipwear to coordinate with outfits, and Goreglam had just what I needed.   The “Cherrie” Watergloss EVO X is a free HUD that is packed with 12 shimmering textures.   I don’t know about you, but I’m always battling dry lips in the winter in RL.  With this set, your SL lips will be beautifully protected.  The sign at the shop says the set will only be available until Dec. 1st, but it’s still there today.  To pick up your own gorgeous gloss, you must be a member of the Goreglam Group, which is free to join.

Who Needs a Warm Cuppa?

I do!  Normally, I’m telling you how warm it is where I am in RL, but this morning I woke up to a chilly 44 degrees.  I know, it’s not that bad to most people (especially for Aline!), but when your summers get up to 110+ Fahrenheit, anything below 55 is COLD!  The steamy mug I’m holding is a free gift from FNY Designs.  It features festive reindeer, marshmallow-topped hot chocolate, and two cinnamon sticks.  Yum!  There are 3 colors available for the mug:  red, gold, and rose.  It’s perfect for winter photos!  To add this delicious concoction to your collection, tap the vendor and pay 1L$.  This will be refunded to you instantly.

These Boots

My Crystal Denim Boots are a free gift for members of the Unfolded Official Group, which is free to join.   They reach to about mid-calf and feature high heels, metallic beaded accents, and a soft denim fabric.  The designer generously includes a texture HUD packed with 10 denim textures, 5 options for the sole, and 5 colors for the metal.  They are super cute (check out the close-up below)!  Simply teleport to Unfolded, activate your group tag, and tap the vendor.  Easy peasy!

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Legacy
• Maitreya Lara X (they worked with my Lara as well)
• Reborn

Cozy Knit

I discovered the figure-flattering Leni Sweater dress at the MH Unique Design Marketplace Store for just 25L$.  It features a loose cowl neck, wide sleeves, and a snug hemline to keep old man winter at bay.   A texture HUD with 10 hues makes this a versatile chilly weather staple.  The fitmesh model is designed for a variety of mesh body types, as well as classic avatars.  Go ahead and treat yourself while you are out running your holiday errands. (You know you want to!)

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus
• eBody
• Maitreya
• Ocacin
• Slink Hourglass and Physique
• TMP
• Tonic Curvy and Fine
• Fitmesh in XS, S, M, L, XL (includes alpha layer)

There you have it, Fabulous Readers!  An outfit perfect for a winter wonderland that won’t break the bank.  Until our next post, happy shopping!
