OH GOOD GRIEF! (Hunt).

OMG although I knew that there is an SL Frees and Offers hunt going on I had NO idea of how many amazing shops have put out a freebie for us.  When it comes to hunts I usually just scroll through the pictures and grab one or two items but you’re NOT going to see a post off me for days as the list of shops involved in this hunt is not only vast but I am going to visit each and every one of them!

This is just a prime example of one of the gifts but then again the Hilly Haalan shop is and has always been extremely generous with the GG’s and offers so in this case you not only get this coat in 4 colours and this bonus Olive colour but also the hair I’m wearing.  You and I know I am totally spoilt when it comes to Mina’s hairs but I’m loving this super shiny hair.  And yes you also get a choice of colours which I haven’t tried yet but this is the “ginger”.  Hold up there is more because you also get boots to match but I didn’t spot them till after I took this picture but wait! there is MORE because inc in the gift is 2 dresses and a pair of Uggs!  Not tried them on yet but by the time the weekend comes I will have a folder stuff with prizes and I can sit and relax as I work my way through the hoard.

The Link is to the SL frees and offers blog and there is a whole list of LMs and hints and what you’re looking for is an Autumn leaf.

A BIG FAT ♥THANK YOU ♥ should go to the shops who have thrown themselves into this hunt but of course the team behind SL Frees and Offers because I know all too well how much time and effort it takes out of your daily lives to do this sort of thing and their dedication to the cause of cheapness lol means that we all benefit so greatly.  BTW from my quick scan of the list, it’s nice to see there are items for men and decor so something for everyone.

PS. Check out the Special Offers at the Hilly Haalan LM, there is a really lovely skater skirt/top combo which I think is 99Ld but I’m loving the textures and can see this is a perfect “go to” outfit.

Free & Pink sale!

Scooted my butt over to Indyra for their “Pink sale” you can get up to 70% discount on pink items ! Then spotted four free gifts – no group to join yay! Thought Id show you the gifts before I head off to bed. Sooo this is “Freya” a romper essentially, plus you get a lovely necklace in the package too. Bewildering array of fits included. I used to shop at Indyra yearssss ago – after trying on these gift items I shall be again ! Totally love that in all the outfits I had to use no alphas – great fits.

This is the Kryptek top and Aziza leggings -shiny! Plus the rather charming Sequoia Dress – both perfect for the season. Again far too many mesh and standard fits to list – but seriously – yours is sure to be there.

Last up and my personal favourite is the Dakota dress – classic and sleek with just enough pretty fabric to make it pop. You will find the four gift boxes around the store on a side table – not overly advertised but easy enough to locate. Btw I am also sporting a new hair-do – bought it at the latest round of Sanarae – its by Limerence and is called “Bree” – adorabubble.

The Gacha Garden Free Gifts !

Popped over to The Gacha Garden – because I am addicted to Gacha ! Played a few machines and then scooped up a few free gifts. I’ve sorted through most of the freebies and this is my “top favs” list. Who doesn’t love a 1Li fireplace? This is by Moon_Sha, absolutely gorgeous roaring flames and brick-built fireplace – winner for me. I’m a real sucker for music boxes in Second Life and real life – this Dragon musical box is by Infinity and it’s just so charming. The dragon hovers and dances while the music plays – only 3Li. Loved the bronze butterfly fly statue by The Half Moon Market. The food items are by various creators – all just 1Li, so useful for creating some realism in our homes or photos – I always keep them.

Really undecided about the free hair from Analog Dog – I’m not a fan of the hovering fringe – but you might be ! Nice pack of fantasy colours in the box with it. Dress is the gift from Entice – all major mesh body fits inc. The pillow pile, decor boxes and even the stars behind me are all free gifts to be found at the event. There’s heaps more from jewelry , make up, wearables etc.

All the Free things !

FINALLY got into the Shop Your Heart Out event – three days of trying! I whizzed around and as I’m on a tight budget currently I avoided looking at any treats ~le-sigh~. My top picks of the gifts are right here – but there is so much I prolly forgot to nab a few! Above is the simply fabulous dress from Giz Seorn – mesh body fits galore. Also the Astra hair by Truth with allllll the Huds for colours. My boots are from Oh Pair – free to group members. Now when I joined I could’ve sworn the group was free to join – but Zan popped over and noticed it is now $75L to join – howeverrrrr this months group gifts are THREE pairs of boots/shoes – great deal !

These are the other pair of group gift boots from OhPair – mesh feet fits only. There was another pair of booty/sandals but no SLink Physique fit booo – really nice though.

Love love love this shirt from The Secret Store – dead cute and a  great fit as always. Choker is from Rebel Hope and the hair is the gift from Magika – absolutely adore this style! I still haven’t unpacked a lot of the gifts I snaffled up – should be easier to get in now – have fun !

All fur coat and no knickers (All Free!)

Oh my gawd – I popped over to ON9 and did a little shopping – noticed some gifts scattered about so collected a few. (Group is free to join). I had NO idea that one of the gifts would be a mink jacket *squeeee*. Not that I advocate wearing animal fur in any shape or form – but here in SL it’s all fake right?! The AnaMarkova gift is the fur jacket andddd the shimmery slinky dress. Various mesh body fits included – infact all I think?. No alphas used in the wearing of this outfit I swear. My hair was also a gifty, from Iconic, never seen this hair designer before and was really chuffed with this classic style – you get alllll the tones too! My glorious glossy red lips are curtesy of Lakshmi and my bag with pose is free from Fashiowl (set of four poses free at their store not the event – posted on one of the walls). Brilliant gifts thank you!

Ohmaigerd – have I got some lully gifts for you! My dress is the new group gift from Alien Gizmo – free to join and comes with a Hud for more colours/patterns – dead yummmy. Boots (Fri.day) Crown (Atomic) and lights necklace (ChicChica) are all stashed under the Christmas tree at The Arcade – theres a whole heap of gifts to get. (no group to join yay)

More gifties from The Arcade – my absolute fave is by [RH], The little car goes round and round and is just 4Li – its sooper sweet. Sleeping Huskies are from Jian and just 1Li and Kalipsia gave the basket of snowballs also 1 Li.

Its a Nightmare for sure

The Nightmare Event 2015 is open for business, not only a great shopping location for all things spooktacular but also a hunt. The hunt is fantastic, quite challenging at the end if you’re useless like moi. You grab a HUD at the start point and have to find and touch pumpkins – sounds easy huh? Wait till you get to the maze of doooooom ! I admit I scare quite easily and some of the stuff did actually make me jump – loved it from beginning to end, beautiful locations and well worth doing – IF you find all 25 pumpkins, you proceed to the shopping venue and go to the stores who have the hunt thingy outside. Touch it whilst wearing your full HUD et voila! You get giftssssss – twenty-five gifts in all (although two stores I couldn’t get the gift for some reason) Iam SO not going to show you everything , go and do it – but but but I had to show just a few things that I adored. The Plastik had this amazeballs stonking huge box of everyyyyything a their gift, seriously – dresses, tops,complete outfits,shoes,jewellery. The outfit above called Sanguine is fantastic, you even get shoes for Slink high feet with a colour change HUD. The eye-patch was from Quirky and has tons of colours for you to choose from via a HUD. Hair is from the Alice Project, massive pack of ALL shades, style as above all bloodied up and also another version with barbed wire around it.

Another mesh outfit from The Plastik (top and pants) and more jewellery from them also. Had to take this photo in this pose to show off my underarm cobwebs ! Brilliantly done and really effective, this was the gift from {aii}, you might also be able to make out my “Glasgow smile” tattoo in this shot, it was the gift from Nox.  (Its not alllll clothing for prize btw, I also got decor items.)
