Hiya everyone! Tonight's post takes us to a favorite location of mine, the Free Dove, where you can always find a wide range of generous gifts on their main floor, as well as impressive bargains upstairs and across the way in their newer building. Don't forget the monthly mini hunts, whose next round I am looking forward to as usual. Tonight I have several gifts to show you, which are compatible with classic avatars and mesh bodies alike, so there is bound to be something to suit you. There are gifts for men and women, not just clothing but shoes, jewelry, skins, shapes, hair, and more. The display areas have signs above to help you find the category you wish, beautifully organized for your convenience.
My first look is the Free Dove Dress from Virtue, whose notecard says "modest fashions for a virtuous woman". If you prefer your clothing to be less revealing, or sometimes a special occasion calls for a more modest outfit, this sounds like an ideal brand. The dress and matching shrug are each included in standard mesh sizes plus Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Venus sizes. I think it looks lovely both ways, and the soft green color with pretty floral design definitely caught my eye.
My next look is another great gift at Free Dove, the {Le'La} Dora Dress. It has the look of a crisp white blouse with a high waisted skirt adorned with 6 bold buttons, and comes in standard mesh sizes along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, eBody, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine versions. I feel like an alluring executive, apparently power is sexy ;)
This gift is the Prism Lindsey Gown in White Blossoms by Journey, and it comes in standard mesh sizes and a fitted version. The style is really intriguing, with the thin black tube top beneath the white halter dress that ends in a small train in the back. You can slip into your favorite black or white shoes, maybe add a bracelet or pair of earrings, and you are ready for a terrific night out.
Each of tonight's looks has something about it that strongly appealed to me, and this Tilly Outfit by Pin Up is no exception. The colors drew me in, and having perfectly matched sandals included is a huge draw as well! The dress is provided in sizes for Belleza Freya, Belleza Isis, Belleza Venus, eBody, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, and a Standard Fitmesh version, while the wedge sandals have sizes for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink MID, and TMP High. All of my poses tonight (as usual) are from Verocity, and this photo shows Sandra 3M on the left with Sandra 2 on the right. More details in a moment...
One last look of the evening, this flirty dress is from Just Evolve Shopping and is called Tainted Love. The dress itself comes in Small, Medium, and Large standard sizes, plus Hourglass, Physique, and Maitreya versions. Also included is a handy HUD that offers 4 texture options, two of which can be seen above. My poses here, like the poses in the prior photo, are from the Verocity - Sandra Pose Set, their offering for Hello Tuesday that is just $25L for 6 poses plus their mirror versions. That's 12 total poses for $25L, half off the regular price. On the left is Sandra 1 and on the right is Sandra 4. You can find their full selection at the main store link in my right hand column as usual, while the link in the credits for this photo will bring you directly to their Hello Tuesday display.
My week is off to a decent start, and I am still chuckling over some Mario Kart adventures earlier this evening. I hope you are all having a wonderful day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! There is plenty to show you on this chilly but lovely Friday evening, ways to look good and feel good. I picked up several group gifts for the FabFree (Fabulously Free in SL) group, which is free to join and is the inworld group for the amazing FabFree blog. They are such a valuable resource of information and tips to find free or inexpensive clothing and much more, for longtime residents as well as the newer denizens of our virtual world. Meanwhile, we have the opportunity to help animals in need by visiting Rally To Rescue and purchasing some extraordinary items from a few dozen different designers across the grid, with all proceeds going to no-kill, non-profit volunteer rescue organizations. Ghost Bullys MC, our host and organizer, is focused on rescuing pitbulls but are still looking out for all animals who need us. It is a worthy cause and I am so honored to be a tiny part of it by blogging these offerings. Even if you don't want to receive an item in return, you can always visit and make a donation at one of the kiosks there, as well as learn a bit more about what the event is all about.
First among our FabFree looks tonight, this is from Rowena's Designs and is called {RS} Harumi Gown. It is worthy of a red carpet for sure, and comes in several mesh sizes: 5 standard, 5 fitmesh, Belleza Freya, Belleza Isis, Belleza Venus, eBODY, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, TMP, Tonic Fine, and Tonic Curvy. Also included, a HUD to allow you to choose from among 6 colors to tint this stunner to suit your tastes. Just wear your FabFree tag which tells the grid "I am Fabulous", and click the sign to claim it for free.
Another beautiful FabFree gift awaits you at Kamiri, their Melania Dress in Teal which is included in 5 standard, 5 fitmesh, Belleza, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass and Slink Physique versions (like what I call the lucky 13, only with the added Hourglass!) to fit many shapes and sizes. That slit on the left leg is quite alluring, and the draped style is sure to be noticed as well.
Two terrific gifts here, let's start with that playful dress from No Cabide + FLG. It is called Jayne Mini Dress, and is one piece with the look of two because of the harness, in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP along with 5 standard mesh sizes. There is also a wonderful HUD included which offers 10 texture choices for the dress as well as 10 colors to apply to the straps. So pretty! My jewelry is another FabFree gift, found at Beloved Jewelry and named Peridot Set in Brass. You will receive the necklace in versions with and without resize script, and matching earrings, in that soft green gem that reminds me so much of spring.
If you are excited about St Patty's Day approaching, or just a fan of the color green, you will enjoy this strapless mini dress with matching necklace from Ass Kicking Angels/VG. It is their Candy Mint Dress and comes in a size for standard avatars plus Belleza Freya, Belleza Isis, Belleza Venus, Maitreya, Slink Hourglass, Slink Physique, and eBODY versions. The included necklace even has a tiny clover dangling from the beads among the strands. I am also thrilled to show you this gorgeous tattoo, which can be found at Rally To Rescue courtesy of PinUp. Their [PU] Bonny Tattoo includes appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, and Omega, with shades of 40%, 60% (shown), and 80% to suit your skin tone and the look you desire. I love the intricate scrollwork, I am always a fan of details and this is a beauty. Just $150L at the event, all of which is donated. Their name here is the link to their main store, while the event location is in the credits at the end as well as the beginning of each post.
Look, puppies!!! ♥ I cannot even begin to tell you how happy these sweeties make me, and if you would like to snuggle a cute puppy too then head to Rally To Rescue and visit that PSYCHO:Byts stand where you will find 5 different colors of Young Pitbulls. On the left I am holding Young Pitbull 1 in brindle, on the right is Young Pitbull 2 in white. Each puppy includes these hold versions plus a static sitting pup as decor, so 3 pups in the color of your choice (besides the ones I am showing, there is fawn, black, and battle gray) for $200L or get the entire fatpack for $800L. The ones I am holding are animated, so they were wiggling around a bit as we were posing so I was basically squeeing like a madwoman while taking this photo. I never want to put them down :) Remember, the full price is a donation to animal rescues in need, so you are doing a good deed as well as adding cuteness to your second life. The link here is their main store, the event location is in the credits at the end.
I have a houseguest this weekend (until Monday night actually) so my blog posts may be smaller or less frequent this weekend. I will still be checking in to SL and possibly attempting to start the Twisted Hunt, only time will tell. Meanwhile I hope you all have an amazing weekend, magical magpie hugs to each of you!!
