Merry Christmas to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! When your favorite store in SL puts out a holiday group gift and it’s the most beautimus gift of all, YASSSS!
The gift
So a few months ago, I did a blog post about fashionably dead, she had been getting real active on the grid again, and had put out her first group gift in a number of years, and I rejoiced! At the time, there was a sign hanging over the gift that said ‘More to come’ and boy oh boy, it’s arrived 😉
Meet the Minimalist Cozy Set, an absolutely perfect fitting, soft and cozy top and skirt. This is the latest group gift by fashionably dead, and it comes in an entire fatpack of colors! Now when I say fatpack, I don’t mean 6 or 8 colors, I mean a fatpack of 64 colors, for both the sweater and the skirt. Heck yeah! It comes in all these sizes too:
Lara X/PetiteX/Lara/Petite
Legacy/Perky
Gen X Classic
Reborn/Waifu
Toast Bard is out here making so many of my favorite items, so soft, cozy and casual in the winter, so light, airy and boho in the summer, and this girl is full of gratitude year round.
The fashionably dead group is 100L to join, and that will get you this full outfit, and the previous boho bandana top I blogged before and some older group gifts too. Stop in and look around, you won’t be disappointed.
Peace ☮️

I love when you are inspired to take a picture by events that happen in real life and Second Life simultaneously! If you pay attention to American football, you may know my Florida team is the Buccaneers! We have quite the pirate culture around Tampa Bay, and coming up this weekend is our annual Gasparilla parade. This is an annual event that consists of a parade on the streets, a parade in the water, and then, no true pirate event is complete without a party on the streets 😉 It’s Tampa’s own little Mardi Gras, and ooooo matey, do people go all out!
The Booty!
Aye, Midnight Order opens! Midnight Order, put on by Second Life Syndicate, is a shopping event for the role play community and fantasy lovers. So many fresh and interesting things over there, and they’re celebrating their 3rd anniversary, so you know the drill ……. we have free booty! I was able to score a whole bunch of fun items this round and let me show them to you.
FREE Pants by Gild (sized for Legacy Male and Jake)
FREE Headdress by Jangka (unisex, resizable)
FREE Necklace by +CHANDRA+ (unisex, resizable)
FREE Earrings by Cinphul (2 sets, spikes and puffs, can be worn together or separate – so also unisex!)
Avast ye pirates! All you need to do in order to pick up these gifts is join the Second Life Syndicate group for free.
If you know people wearing male bodies, be sure to share this post with them, as most of the gifts are unisex, and many are specific to male bodies. I love to be inclusive, and I don’t want anyone to walk the plank! YO-HO-HO (now where’s that bottle of rum?)

I’m getting out of bed suuuuuper late today. The spirit wasn’t moving me to go and…do *things*. So, I hid under the blankets until the things went away…or I forgot what the things were in the first place. Either way, problem (sorta) solved!
Open Up
The Veles sim has just opened up to shoppers, with several of my favourite stores (and some new to me ones as well). The exciting thing is that they’ve got freegifts out for everyone who stops by for a visit. You’ll have to hurry though, these items are slated to be taken away tomorrow – July 3rd. No group join required, just click on the boxes. Here’s what I’ve got on:
FREEpyjama pants by Loki sized for Maitreya
FREEpose by Mirinae with 3 poses and their mirrors in the box
There are a few other goodies too, which you can see in the vendor photo below.
Right, off you go – go get the goodies!

In a quest to enjoy some sunshine and get some Vitamin D, Blue and I have taken to exploring bright beachy locations. These little excursions have led us to some pretty cool places. Not to mention that the promise of adventure is also probably the best way to get me out of my beloved pajamas. lol
Speaking of not being in pajamas, my colorful t-shirt dress is a free gift by UNA at Second Life’s 17th Birthday shopping event. It comes in rainbow, black, and white. My cute chunky heart earrings are a freeSL17B gift by NeverWish. I thought they were perfect with the rainbow “Road Trip” dress by UNA. I’m kind of digging the whole ’80s vibe this look gives. Blue picked up a few freebies at the SL17B Shop & Hop event also. His flip-flops are the freeSL17B gift from Native Urban, while the cool ring he’s wearing is the free mens gift at SL17B by Lapointe & BastChild. There’s a ladies version of the ring as well. Blue’s shirt and shorts are both hunt prizes on the AllStuff hunt. His cool floral sleeveless hoodie is a dollarbie hunt prize at Waffles, while his casual linen shorts are a free hunt gift at UnderDog. The AllStuff Hunt ends June 30th, so don’t wait and miss these!
Waffles Hunt Hint – Find me at the landing point.
UnderDog Hunt Hint – Come hang out at the lounge! Watch some tv while you’re at it!
Ring Sizes Included: Non-Rigged, Slink, Signature (Gianni, Geralt), Belleza Jake
Finally, you can get a little bit of outdoor summer fun in your own backyard by picking up this cool outdoor bar by Muniick for just 60 linden. It’s their Happy Weekend Sales event item and it will be available at the sale price this weekend only. The “Lowel’s Outdoor Bar” from Muniick includes the beer bucket full of ice-cold canned and bottled beer, the bar, and stools. It also has individual and couples bento poses. It’s the perfect addition to your patio or outdoor kitchen.

Hello hello Fab Free, I hope you’re all surviving first life well enough. As for Second Life, Blue and I decided to throw a few things in a bag and jump in the car for a much-needed getaway. Like most of us, we decided we could use a little change of scenery. This little diner was an impromptu stop along the way on our road trip to nowhere in particular. We got out stretch our legs, take in some scenery, grab a bite to eat, and of course take a few photos. After all, is it really a vacation if you don’t have a few social media worthy photos? Hah, just kidding.
The pose we used for this snapshot is a free Stay at Home Club gift from The Owl. This free couples pose by The Owl comes with pose balls and individual pose animations. No group is needed for the Stay at Home Club gifts. My t-shirt is a free Stay at Home Club gift as well. I picked it up at Sass. The over-sized casual tee by Sass says “Actually, I can.” and comes in the color shown, and has a matching pair of panties included. The last of the Stay at Home Club gifts for this post is a set of eyes Blue is wearing from Madame Noir, which are of course free. Blue’s short-sleeve button-down shirt is also a free gift. It comes from Ascend and is free for all SLF&O group members. The men’s short from Ascend comes in the color and print shown, and requires the free-to-join SL Frees & Offers group tag.

Friday the 13th is the perfect day to go camping, right? Surely nothing sinister would happen… I can just hear the iconic “something bad is about to happen” music starting to play! I love a classic horror flick, so when Blue showed me these Camp Crystal Lake tees by ZFG (Zero F*cks Given) I had to share them with you; today being Friday the 13th is just the icing on the cake.
The matching his and hers shirts are the free Twisted Hunt prize at ZFG. When hunting be wary of the decoy boxes the Twisted Hunt is famous for. The Twisted Hunt runs through the end of the month, so you have some time to get things figured out. There are no hints either, so I can’t help you there. To get yours, you’ll have to head over to ZFG and hunt it down! The male and female version are in the same box.
Everyone has them… Times in your life where things seem to be spinning out of control and you have absolutely no say in the outcome. You have to patiently hold your breath for things to shake out and just wait to exhale, hoping your world isn’t turned upside down…
Boos! and Beanies…
Today’s look comes from two different hunts. And truth be told, I had a very hard time finding both of these gifts. But I stuck with it and I finally discovered their hiding spots. My Klett Zipper Shirt is the dollarbie Boo! Bunny Hunt 6 gift from Fe Style. The shirt comes in sizes XS-XL and is nicely textured. My Beanie Hat is the FREEMen Only Hunt 10 gift that can be found at Native Urban. I spent way too long looking for this gift, but it was easy to size over my unruly hair, so it was well worth the time spent.
