The Season’s Upon Us

The Season's Upon Us

Happy Monday Fabs!  Don’t like Mondays?  Not many would blame you, but what if there’s something super cool you could do on a Monday (or any day) would that change your mind?

The Christmas Tale

There’s this sweet little area, no fluff, no frills, and it has a bunch of cardboard decorations and Christmas trees.  What’s so special about THAT, Beachy hmmm?  Well, dangling off the cardboard trees are an assortment of goodies you can purchase for just 25L each.  There are things for male and female bodies, even skin fatpacks! I also spotted some hairstyles, and even the bow lips for Genus Morph.   The Christmas Tale is sponsored by Opulein and there’s a bunch of designers taking part.  I did a little shopping for myself, and this is some of what I came home with.

  • 25L Tie Top by Lowen (Fatpack, sized for Lara X, Legacy, Reborn)
  • 25L Earrings by Vipera (Fatpack, for Lelutka, Genus and unrigged)
  • 25L Necklace and choker by Touchic (unrigged, with metal hud)

I was especially stoked to find the gifts from Lowen, because I am enjoying their advent calendar immensely.  This tie top is everything, menswear made into women’s wear, sleek and stylish.

There are lots of things to discover so make sure you pop over there and look around.  I’m sure I’ll go back again!  The Christmas Tale will be open until December 31st.

Peace ☮️

The Fae’s Retreat

The Fae's Retreat
This little woodland fairy is pondering whether or not to invite her friends over for tea.  Does she have enough seed cakes, honey and scones to go around?  There are always plenty of berries in the forest, and a never ending supply of chamomile so the tea doesn’t ever run out.  A merry gathering it shall be… but… no humans allowed!

The Deep Woods

I am having such a good time putting together outfits and imaginary worlds on the FabFree Enchanted Forest Hunt.  Every time I unpack something, I get all excited at how pretty and imaginative the gifts are.  I made three stops today, and I had so much fun putting this photo together that I may just become a woodland inhabitant forever!  My first stop was Grasshopper St.  This shop is just so lovely in the way that it evokes the class and lush feel of an olde world millinery shop.  I picked up this gorgeous cloche for just 3L, and the parasol was 3L as well. Both are resizable so will fit like a dream.  Aren’t they amazing?  Love it!

Fit for the Fae

Raindale has long been one of my fave stops for distinctive furniture.  When they joined the hunt, I couldn’t think of a better place to evoke the enchanted forest feel we were going for.  The furniture that peppers my little hidden forest abode is all 1L each, and really is completely beautiful.  You’ll want to add every item to your collection, just like I did!

Secrets of the Unicorn

Ishiku has also come up with an amazing concept for our hunt – the cracked monolith is HUGE and just such an interesting set to add to your hidden garden.  Each item is just 5L each and is completely and utterly gorgeous in every detail.  You’ll get the massive stone monolith, the etched stone, the magical unicorn horn vial and the golden stand for it.  It’s utterly brilliant!  I’m gushing a bit, but honestly…it’s fantastic.

The FabFree Enchanted Forest Hunt is running until July 22nd!  Show our awesome designers some love!  Here’s one more photo for good measure… (can you tell I had fun with this shoot?)

Queen Bee

Queen Bee_002

I’ve been out gathering the last blooms before fall really sets in. We’ve had a few warm days and some of the flowers still are blooming. The cold nights will soon be frosting over the last of the buds though.

Late Bloomer

This ruffled romper is perfect for picking late blooms with its pretty lacy textured design and soft color. And you can pick it up free at Ashmoot. It’s their exclusive FabFree gift to all of us! Just don your FabFree group tag and head over to the Ashmoot main-store to pick it up.

Available sizes:

  • Standard sizes XXS – L
  • Maitreya – Lara
  • Slink – Hourglass & Physique
  • Belleza – Freya, Isis, & Venus

Pose pretty!

My pretty pose is another 12L gift from the TWE12VE event! You can find this gift at the B’Style booth and the pose is called “Angel”. It is great for Second Life photographers! And for only 12L, I couldn’t pass it up!

Queen Bee

Since I’m picking all these flowers, I have decided that I’m queen bee for the day, as stated by my most excellent tattoo. This was another TWE12VE event gift. I picked this gift up for 12L at the Lush booth. Inside the box was the cute omega applier tattoo pictured above!

A special gift

NSP Florals and [MUSE] sent out their September gift via group notices with a special announcement that their main-store would be temporarily closed due to an SL glitch (it will reopen as soon as possible). In the meantime you can get the current group gift in the notices (but hurry, notices only stay active for two weeks and it’s already been a few days). That’s where I got my beautiful set of 50s swing jewelry that I paired with my outfit.

Note* If you’re not already in the group, copy and paste this: secondlife:///app/group/fc7863f9-aea1-e3d3-9705-b37dd4bcd531/about into local chat and use it to join the group!

Don’t worry, the NSP Florals satellite store is still open and you can go to it to do your regular shopping for now using this teleport by clicking here. And the main-store will be back up soon! In the meantime, pick up the group gift from the notices!

Stopping for a Cuppa

coffee 2_001

Always a hot… hunt.

The Women’s Stuff Hunt is one of my favorite hunts. I always love surfing through my inventory after a few stops along the trail. I happened to pick a stop – Mimi’s Choice to be exact – and head home to unpack and was thrilled with the beautiful form fitting flowery gown I unpacked.

This dress nice enough for a date night out, but casual enough for coffee at a cafe. It’s sure to be perfect for any occasion, and it includes all the popular sizes such as:

  • Standard mesh sizes XS – XL
  • Maitreya, Slink, and Belleza

Shoes make a match.

If you hurry, the [MUSE] and NSP Florals March group gift is still out. It’s a lovely gift well worth picking up. You surely must have noticed my gorgeous shoes! These hipster wedges fit Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza Feet, and include a color change hud with 6 different colors to match your outfits. Hurry! With March being over, I’m not sure how much longer this gift will be out to pick up!

Jeweled and a[MUSE]ed

a[MUSE]ed

A little fantasy.

NSP florals and [MUSE] set out a great Women’s Stuff Hunt gift that had me thinking along the lines of fantasy and roleplay. It’s only 1L and a little hunting time for the iconic red T-shirt and you get the hair and jeweled hair piece pictured above. The two pieces are separate so you can wear the jeweled headpiece with any other hair that you have. As a bonus, there is an included hud to change the color of the jewels on the headpiece. The hair only comes in the one color and reminds me a bit of old fashioned wigs, but I liked it nonetheless. I thought it was fun!

Matching the pair.

I hadn’t been by Wicca’s Wardrobe in a while and was happy to pick up their latest group gift. The group is 99L to join, but they offer monthly group gifts and the gifts are always top quality. There is always a gift out for both the ladies and the gents. This month I was able to pick up the Belle Dress in Spring Flower.

Sizes available:

  • Standard mesh sizes XXS – L
  • TMP
  • Maitreya – Lara
  • Slink – Hourglass & Physique
  • Belleza – Freya, Isis, & Venus

Accessorize Your Fantasy!

Roleplay and fantasy have always been a huge part of my Second Life experience, and truly great roleplay outfits are usually defined by their accessories. So! This accessories post is all about accessories for different types of roleplay or fantasies!

Accessories Day Post Picture 1

I put together this whimsical outfit with a FREE soft yellow dress by antielle. which I found on the marketplace. It might be new to some of you as it hasn’t been blogged in a while, but some time back, Tiana Omizu showed the dress HERE. It’s a lovely mesh little number in a soft yellow and all the standard sizes. But we all know that a dress is just a dress unless you add the right details. Accessorize!

To add my fantasy feel to this dress I donned this amazing Coral Witch Headress in gold (there are five colors in the Marketplace pack) from Aii ~ The Ugly and the Beautiful. The 5-pack of colors is only 10L and these headresses are modifiable as well!

My Earcuffs are by PoshTale and are a FREE Marketplace gift. These are colorchange with three color choices. I went with the gold, but you could chose red or blue. They fit perfectly over human shaped ears to add an elven and fantasy feel.

Hair – Magika – Now
Dress – antielle. Marin Magique Sunny! Gift (0L/FREE on the Marketplace/ First shown HERE by Tiana Omizu)
Earcuffs – PoshTale – Eru EarCuffs (0L/FREE on the Marketplace)
Horns – Aii ~ The Ugly and the Beautiful – Coral Witch Headress 5 pack – gold shown (10L on the Marketplace)

Sometimes roleplay or fantasies go a bit darker… for those days (or nights!) I found a great one stop shop for you. Tabou! Here you can pick up three group gifts sure to make for some steamy fantasy roleplay. Currently the Tabou Group is FREE to join and you can pick up this blindfold, septum nose piercing and bracelet as FREE gifts. I did edit the bracelet by moving it up to make an armlet, as it’s modifiable. So if you have a bit of editing skills, I imagine you could make it into an anklet or other versatile piece!

Head – LeLutka – Stella w/ Glam Affair Base Applier hud
Hair – Exile – Temptation Waits
Bra – {Luxuria} Naughty Rose in Black
Blind Fold – Tabou – Blind Love – Bloody (0L/FREE Group Gift/Free to Join Group)
Septum Piercing – Tabou – Bublles septum – copper (0L/FREE Group Gift/Free to Join Group)
Armlet – Tabou – My Holiday Hand (0L/FREE Group Gift/Free to Join Group)

Accessories Day Post Picture 3_001

I’ve always thought that Greek and Romanesque roleplay looked lovely and inviting. The feel of it to me is divine! I put on a simple silk as my base, but that is never enough to give you the proper look. To get the look I wanted, I finished off this silk with two great accessories from two amazing stores.

First, stop by Luas Urban Style. My Owl Jewel Set is a FREE lucky letter board available to Luas group members. The group is FREE to join. It includes the necklace and earrings shown above, as well as a ring (not shown).

I picked up the bold Gadhra Metals necklace from Salt & Pepper. It is their most recent group gift. The gift is FREE with group membership. The group is 100L to join but the frequent, quality gifts make it well worth joining. This was a set which included matching earrings as well (not shown), and the set is also color change for several metal choices.

Head – LeLutka – Stella w/ Glam Affair Base Applier hud
Hair – Truth – Leticia
Outfit – Soedara – Venustas Togulae 2 in White
Short Neclace – Salt & Pepper Group Gift – Gadhra Metals (0L/FREE gift to Group Members/100L to Join the Group)
Long Necklace & Earrings – Luas Urban Style – Owl Jewel Set (0L/FREE Group Lucky Letter Board/FREE to Join the Group)

Sometimes we all need something a little whimsical and innocent. Remember when the tooth-fairy was real and we still believed in unicorns? I love this FREE February Group gift from [MUSE] NSP Florals. The little Unicorn Daisy is sweet as can be. The group is 75L to join, but with great monthly offers like this, it is worth the investment.

To wrap up, we all have our wild side! I began my look by picking out this outfit called Antiope by Sweet Lies from the Marketplace. It is only 59L and modifiable for an easy fit. It has a feel that is perfect for lots of roleplay settings, which I love!

To give it a finishing touch, I added another Marketplace item: a 1L gift from Old World — this Medieval Fish Bone Necklace. The Necklace has all the terrific details we know and love Old World for, and for the sweet little price of 1L, it is a terrific touch to finish off a wild look.

Head – LeLutka – Stella w/ Glam Affair Base Applier hud
Hair – Exile – One Way or Another
Outfit – Sweet Lies – Antiope Brown Outfit (59L on the Marketplace)
Necklace – Old World – Medieval Necklace Fish Bone (1L on the Marketplace)

Winter Blues

“I’ll have a blue Christmas without you
I’ll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won’t be the same, dear, if you’re not here with me” [Elvis]

Elvis is in the snow! Err… in the pavilion. Err… in the house! Okay so this dress has me singing the blues, but not in a bad way! And you’ll be singing the blues too once you see how perfect this gown is for winter blues!

Winter Blues 1

“And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That’s when those blue memories start calling
You’ll be doin’ all right with your Christmas of white
But I’ll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas” [Elvis]

A white holiday is traditional, but a blue one is stunning, especially in this gorgeous gown from The Beautiful Ones .:TBO:. called Selina Long Tail in Turquoise. One of the things I loved best about this formal holiday gown is that not only did it come in all the standard mesh sizes, but it also came in several fitted mesh sizes which accommodated my fuller and curvy avatar figure! Yay! I didn’t have to slim down my sliders at all to fit into this dress which just thrilled me!

You’ll find that there are two great ways you can take this dress home for the holidays when you stop by the TBO main-store. You can either pick it up as a FREE group gift (the group is 25L to join with later group gifts to pick up) OR if you are low on group space you can pick it up for the tiny fee of just 10L instead without the group join. A very nice offer indeed!

Winter Blues 2

“You’ll be doin’ all right with your Christmas of white
But I’ll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas” [Elvis]

[MUSE] NSP Florals was doing it right in blue for their December gift as well with this lovely choker and earrings gift set which you can pick up FREE with your group tag (the group is 75L to join if you are not already a member, but offers beautiful monthly gifts for your small fee). This set is fully adjustable and resizable for the perfect fit and has a lustrous, almost snowflake affect that makes it perfect for holiday parties.

Who said white was the color of the season? Give me that blue, blue holiday. Sing it, Elvis!
