A work of art, this is for Moz. (Freebie).

I was looking at the skirt part of this dress and racking my brains as to why it looks so familiar and it finally hit me, like a brick in the face. I don’t know if it’s a famous painting but I think I recognise this design from Cross Stich kits you can buy off Amazon lol.

This is a one piece and I won’t lie as the top has those “sharp” edges, you know what I mean, which is a slight shame as the colours of this outfit are so bold and bright but I can also see that pop a top/jacket/jumper or long wiggie on and soften the top.  This gift and the men’s gift I’m about to babble on about are set to 0Lds and you just buy them.  There are a couple of other gifts around the shop so I don’t know if they too are set to 0Ld as I didn’t grab them.

But I did grab the men’s gift and I did have a hope that the xxs size would fit me and I could show it to you but because it’s designed for monkey boy shapes ie big shoulders, arms etc it looked a bit odd naturally on a male AV it will fit perfectly.  It’s a simple sweatshirt with a big hud of very usable texture and not just sizes because you also have a choice of how the shirt fits ie tucked, hanging, wide bottom (to go over jeans) etc.  MOZ, go get it I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

PS.  I finally got into FaMESHed but it’s too late as you will have seen all the freebies but at least I know have the pleasure of sitting on my platform and working my way though my haul.

PPS.  I logged back into LM grab and had a wander around the shop and the prices are very reasonable, ie cheap so it’s a good chance to pick up some bargains.

A good start. (Freebie & 5ld offer).

For sale, 2 cats, slightly used, expensive to feed, furniture scratchers, night warblers/morning warblers and guaranteed to cover you and everything you own in hair and totally 100% ungrateful little sh*ts.  Make me an offer I will accept ANYTHING even a bloody cookie!

Enough moaning and here is today’s freebies n cheapies.  I don’t think I’ve shown you these exact items but of course, a lot of designs are now SL “Classics” which means a lot of shops have the same designs but change the textures.

This is the MLM Group Gift and that costs 5Lds to join and for that, you get the top, jeans and shoes. TBH worth it for the jeans alone.  chances are you already have a similar design but if not then you do need these.  The top has a nice texture hud and although you can’t see the shoes the shoes have the same texture hud as the top.  ALL of the mesh fits you could need as well.

The shorts are almost as identical to the jeans just a tad darker and the top also has a texture hud.  They and the top are freebies for the …..group….. can’t remember which group but as you will see when you go to the Alias shop there is a selection of gifts for different groups.  While I was LM grabbing I quickly joined the Alias free group and grabbed that gift as its the same jeans but black plus a spotty top which I did try on and it’s bright and bold.

Disclaimer.

I do have to say that obviously a lot of shops buy “full perm” items which they retexture and repackage so the clothing I’m showing you is what I call a “classic” SL design in other words you have probably seen the same things in many shops and inevitable some items will have been blogged before and I’ve forgotten that either I have blogged them or Faith did.  In the end I think as long as the items being blogged are damned good then it doesn’t really matter in the end as to a lot of our readers they maybe new.

PS.  There are other gifts in the shop.

This itty bitty little thing has cost me a fortune! (FREEBIES).

Woah I’ve just got back from the Redeux event which is celebrating it’s their second anniversary which means GIFTS for ALL….actually this event is one of the more generous gift giving events there is and this adorable soap set is one of the freebies.

I’ll let you into a RL secret, I used to be a soap maker and although I love what I do now I am missing the creativeness of soaping and this little set and those sticks of soap OMG! I swear part of me is staring at this picture and thinking “yes you can” the other part is remembering I now have sensitivity from working with EOs (Essential oils) and my sense of smell was being damaged by all the fragrance sniffing.

Anyhow, I’m using this simple gift just to let you know that there is not only a SH*T load of gifts but so many discounts and offers and of course the Gacha’s in the middle of this event and I’ve spent all my money! Now I have an internal debate as to whether I remain poor for the rest of the month or buy more Lds!

This event is over on the 21st.  Grab everything then plonk yourself somewhere where you won’t be bothered and slowly but surely unpack all the goodies, bin the ones you won’t use and stash away the keepers and I promise you by the end of it you will be totally chilled.  I am heading to my platform and doing just that and if I come across something which has as much wow factor, for me, as this soap set I might just tack it on to this post.

PS.  The soap is a gift from the “Insurrection” stall and you “wear” the unpacker and listen to what it says.

UPDATE. Oooo not disappointed at all, I’m having to log off SL and I’ve only unpacked about 8 boxes and found a fab top, a very interesting dress, bento lipstick ao, a rabbit outfit, cushions, jewellery inc facial one, some quality shelves and a pair of glasses which are as wearable as the pair I’ve just blogged.  I’m looking forward to when I have more free time to finish unpacking the rest.

Oops I did it again!(Flourish Event)

I went and bought something I already had but I ain’t mad.  Before I explain why, what, and where here is another Mina hair but my excuse for showing you another hair is that this one is ONLY….99Lds.

“Annie” is not an old dated hair dug out of her invent, dusted off and repackaged.  This is a pretty new hair and even though it’s at a discounted price you still get the full-colour palette AND of course the “style” hud. I’m not showing you the behind of this hair, there is a demo for you to try, but it’s a French Pleat style, you can have it either smooth and low or slightly higher with a teased look.

The “Oops” wasn’t the 3 backdrop pack for 99Lds I bought or the amazing boat for 90Lds which I grabbed before I even prim checked(20 prims) it was the LB (Little Branch) Orange Tree set because it turns out I already own it.  I’m not going to cry into my orange juice as it only cost me 88Lds and for that, you get a copy and mod tree which even better is SEASONAL!  Anyone who decorates/landscapes in SL knows that paying for seasonal items can, in the end, save you a lot of Lindens and almost as importantly a lot of time and again at 88Lds so CHEAP.

Everything at this event seems to be 100Lds and under.  I obviously went for the decor items but there is everything for everyone, shoes, clothes, hair, poses and of course landscaping and decor all laid out in a very attractively landscaped desert setting.

PS. If you love Puffins you will love what’s on the stall next to the boat lol.

You’re getting sleeeeepy.(10Ld Mini hunt & Mention of Freebies).

First port of call when I logged back inworld was the D’Lory shop as there is a Mini hunt going on and I had spotted this sleep mask, I wonder if I stuck a sleep mask on my cat it would help him sleep through the night? It does come with a resizer menu.

Most of the 10 items are little Kawaii items like this, a cute pair of headphones, knitted hat etc and as usual with paid for hunts there is a big picture in the shop to show you what is on offer.  Also what you’re looking for is a pretty pink chocolate box which also works as a decor item.  So pretty and only 1 prim so that was a nice little extra.

Although the D’Lory group costs 50Lds there are group gifts and if you check behind the reception desk there are a whole load more gifts for various groups and I recognise a really decent Freebie which I have blogged not too long ago.

As I was wandering around I spotted a few “Oooo that’s interesting” outfits and I grabbed a couple of demos to try out.

PS.  You can’t see it but the sleep mask has a lovely fat bow behind it.

The icing on the cake. (Bargains and Freebie(s))

I’ve just had a pleasant half hour at The Wash and that’s where I found these shorts.

I can’t remember if I paid 10 or 25Lds for them.  They’re really nice short shorts and not “coochie cutters”.  As you can see teamed up with this stunning top a good addition to your invent.  You will find the shorts on the Shae’s Design stand and this is the colour I picked but there are other options.

Most of us will be very familiar with “The Wash” event and as always there is a nice mix of everything from potted plants to shoes and although everything is bargain priced the prices now vary between 10-50Lds but I did spot a few Freebies along the way.  I’m not giving you the direct LM to the Shae’s stall as it’s not a massive event and this way I’m making you walk around and checking out what it there.

You may recognise this top and if so then I’m sorry, not sorry.  The folder it was in was dated sometime in January so that’s when I blogged it but although I remember this top well and went looking for it I don’t remember it having a lovely Ombre colour hud inc.  So if I’m wrong and I did mention it again “Sorry, not sorry” lol.

Don’t scroll past this post. (5Ld Hunt & Event).

You will need to check out the “Ostara’s Alta Event” blog so you can see the prizes you’re hunting for as each prize costs 5Lds.

I’m only showing you the one item I picked up just to tempt you with its prettiness.  I will admit I also grabbed the beautiful “flora headband” from the Oubliette stand and it’s delightful unlike the totally naff picture I took of it so take my word that for 5Lds you will get yourself an accessory you will love to wear and just as good is the fact when rezzed it’s only 1 prim!  All that detail and just a single prim is a bonus as you can use it as a pretty little decor item.

If you look at the blog pictures the ones on the right are the 5Ld prizes and so you can spot a few items of clothing but I’m heading back in for those plants…which won’t surprise you at all.

I forgot I took a picture of the Flora Headband when it was rezzed so I decided to add it to the post.

So imagine this on your head and also on your dressing table.

UPDATE.

When I logged back inworld to finish off the hunt I found that a few of the stalls have extra gifts out for us and in this case, the Squishy fluff shop has this sweet freebie for us.

Lots of fits for this dress and it does come with a really good “strap/halter” but I thought it distracted from the simpleness of the dress and since it’s an add on I didn’t add it on but that also means you can use it to accessories other outfits.  I was still wearing the lovely hunt prize headdress and although it doesn’t go with the Cactus pattern of the dress I’m keeping it on.

PS.  I did notice that the stalls also have pictures of the hunt prizes and also that not all of the hidden eggs that you’re looking for are in the stalls, they are in fact dotted around.
