Who never, ever had a favorite jean jacket? I still have mine sitting in a closet with all of the pins I collected during trips here and there. The odds are that it will never, ever fit again but I cant let go of it. It brings back lots of happy memories. I have bought or been gifted quite a few jackets over the years and they’ve all been quite nice. Today I found what might possibly be my new favorite on sale!
One in a Million, er, Melon?
Oh, the cuteness! Not only will this jacket keep you warm on cool days and nights. Everyone can see how special you really are. You all know how I love the $35L Sunday sales. The Summer Autumn Jacket offering at Dore Papillion Boutique does all of the above. If the longer cut and rolled up sleeves don’t look comfy enough then the soft denim may convince you. The “cherry on top” is the artwork on the back proclaiming you as “One in a Melon”. This jacket is sized only for Maitreya.
Hey there FabFree! I got kind of a shock today. I went to one of my favorite art supply/crafts store and it was… FALL. Every aisle was all leaves and cinnamon candles and plaid! It’s over 100 degrees outside and it’s full on Autumn inside. Now don’t get me wrong, I love all things Fall and honestly, I’m over the heat. Maybe Fall isn’t such a bad idea. Great… now I want a pumpkin spice latte…..
Autumn Attitude
Snowpaws must be feeling those “I wish it was Fall” vibes too with this gorgeous free gift for us Fabulousl Free Group members. This is the ‘Lilou One Sleeve Gown’. Just pop on your Fabulously Free group tag and it’s all yours. This gown is just so beautifully made and the textures are really rich. Plus, it will really put you in a Fall state of mind!
Sizes Included
Belleza – Freya, Isis, Venus

Hello, welcome back to the blog Fab Free’rs! So I did a little more frog hunting on the Enchantment Frog Prince Hunt and decided I wanted to share even more of the free hunt gifts with you. There are lots of cute prizes to be had, and the Frog Prince Hunt does not end until August 31st.
The Flower Mask – This pretty vine of flowers is the free Frog Prince Hunt gift at Snowpaws. The beautifully detailed mask comes in 2 sizes, each with 2 attachment point options. Also included is a held version of the mask which I think is a cool addition.
Hint – There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.
The Swimsuit – I think there’s something really beautiful about this swimsuit from Have Unequal. It is their free gift for the Frog Prince Hunt. I think it’s the combination of the soft pink color and the gold details. There’s even a pretty “embroidered” gold scarab type image on the back. This gift comes in a Maitreya fit only.
Hint – The little frog is in love with the butterfly.
Here are the details, happy hunting!

Hello Fabulouses! Have you checked out all the amazing free gifts available to members of the Fabulously Free in SL group? Love and Pru recently posted about several of them, and inspired me to take a fresh look at the list, which you can find here. I’m so glad I did because I was able to pick up this lovely outfit from Snowpaws for free!
Introducing…….Colette
Nestled inside the gift box from Snowpaws, the Colette outfit features a wrap-style tie top and a sage green skirt that coordinate beautifully together, but also can be worn separately. With three quarter length sleeves, a plunging neckline, and a charming botanical print, the top is ideal for warm weather wear. Its slightly shorter length allows a peek at your midsection. I like how the skirt’s fabric drapes in loose folds to end just above mid thigh. The package includes versions for classic as well as mesh avatars. Best of all, this outfit can be yours for the grand total of zero linden dollars, since the Fab Free group is completely free to join!
Sizes and Mesh Body Compatibility:
Fit mesh top and skirt (includes alpha layer for classic avatars)
Maitreya
Slink Hourglass
Slink Physique
Oldie But a Goodie
When I was searching through my inventory for the perfect accessories, I came across this vintage jewelry set from Dark Mouse Jewelry that I had forgotten I had (yes, my inventory is that full, lol). I slipped it on, and its soft green ribbon was a near perfect match for my new outfit. I couldn’t find an in-world store, but happily discovered that Dark Mouse Jewelry still has a Marketplace shop, and offers this set for just 50L.
Ripley and I are off to further explore the lovely Butterfly Beach sim. Until my next post, happy shopping!

Hello, fabulous readers! I’m finally feeling the holiday spirit, thanks to some amazing gifts and deals. So hang on to your sleigh – we’ve got a lot to cover here!
Silver Bells
I was so thrilled when I got the notice that LeLutka was sending out their annual Spirit Tree. This year’s tree is a beauty: snowy green with big, silver decorations. And the best part is that it’s completely FREE!
Just join the LeLutka in-world group (NOT the LeLutka For Me users group) and save a copy from the notices. Or head over to the store to pick one up, if you’d rather. Lots of past group gifts are available (including FREE hair), so be sure to grab those as well, if you haven’t already done so.
The Spirit Tree is resizable with a right-click > edit > stretch. Be sure to watch your land impact, because the tree gets more “primmy” as it gets larger.
More Advent Gifts
[CIRCA] Living is hosting their 8th Annual Advent Calendar, and the gifts are really lovely!
This year’s Advent is a bit different:
From Dec 1 – 24, [CIRCA] will be offering a new advent item (up to 4 per day) in a numbered square.
This works similar to previous years except there is a new in-world group to join: [CIRCA] Living – Christmas Advents. It is free to join – just look for the RED group sign beside the large Advent tree on the wall.
You must wear your group tag (see above) to buy the contents of each square, except for the 0L surprise days. Each item will be 1L – 75L for any given day in the Advent tree. You can purchase any or all of the gifts for that day.
Sometimes there will be bonus squares on surprise days for an extra gift or color variation for group members, so don’t miss those.
On the Eve of Dec 24th, the group will be closed. Those still in the group at that time will receive the final gift on Dec 25th.
Sample items are on display in the store, and more will be displayed as the days go on. Each day’s gifts are only available for 2-3 days at a time, so don’t wait too long to check them out!
I’m showing a few [CIRCA] Advent items here (please note that not all are still available):
“Northern Forest” Hanging Christmas Words (over fireplace)
“Northern Forest” Holiday Garland 2a -Azure/Silver (on fireplace)
“Northern Forest” Stool – Cocoa Trees (right of fireplace)
“Frostine” Snowflake Gift Boxes (under tree – still available at the time of this post)
At the time of this post, days 9 – 12 are still available for purchase, including a really cute FREEBIE on day 9 (you want it, trust me).
Holiday Blues
I’m not feeling the blues, but I’m definitely wearing them! Not long ago, we welcomed I.M. Collection to the Fab Free Designer family. This made me happy because I really love their stuff (in case you hadn’t noticed, lol)!
So today I’m wearing I.M. Collection’s new gift for Fab Free group members, which includes both the dress and heels. Dress sizes include Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink, as well as a Fitmesh version. The shoes are sized for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink mesh feet.
To pick up your gift, pop on your Fabulously Free in SL group tag and head over to the I.M. Collection in-world store. You’ll find the Fab Free gift next to the fireplace around the corner.
P.S. If you join the I.M. Collection group for 50L, there are 12 MORE GIFTS for you to pick up, as well as one for SLF&O group members. 😀
Look at These Nails!
Seriously, I am really loving these nails from LIVIA. And the best part is that they are a completely FREE gift for the Women Only Hunt 4.
The Snow Royale nail appliers work on Slink and Maitreya mesh hands, as well as hands that are Omega compatible, such as Vista and Tuty (Omega installer sold separately). Four different designs are included, so depending on your hands, you can wear all the same design, or different designs on each finger, as I’m doing here.
NOTE: This hunt allows decoys, and there is at least one that I found in the store. But hang in there; the “real” snowflake is not too hard to find, especially if you have the clue before you go hunting. 🙂
Snow Chains
Before I end this very long post (sorry!), I want to mention my necklace, which was an Advent calendar gift from Snowpaws. The Metal Snowflake Necklace was the gift for day 4. It is not resizeable, but you can reposition it.
Like the Advent calendars I mentioned previously HERE, Snowpaws’s calendar gifts do not expire after one day, so you can still pick up all the previous days’ gifts. There’s an interesting selection of gifts, including jewelry, accessories, and home decor items. All gifts are completely FREE, and you don’t even need to join a group! 🙂
Enjoy!
