FabFree Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some generous group gifts for the FabFree in SL group to share, which is always free to join and has an impressive array of designers who participate. Their group and blog have been a huge help to me for well over a decade now, probably the entirety of my 15 years in SL actually, so it is always a pleasure to inform or remind people of their hard work. It's a great way to find out about sales, special offers, and of course gifts :) Speaking of which, one of our designers we visit this evening, Tastic, is also offering a remembrance of The Free Dove in the form of a lovely shirt that we can claim in male or female sizes, either in their store or on the marketplace


For my first look of the evening, we visit *MIRUS* where our "I am Fabulous!" group tag will allow us to claim their Cherry Dress for free. The top half in particular was giving me a sparkly appearance that might have been from the tiny holes of the fabric. The wrap dress comes in sizing for Altamura, eBody Classic, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies, and has a beautiful bow on the left side of the waist that matches the pink in the pattern wonderfully.


Next we head over to {Chaotic} where there is an entire room dedicated to freebies, like the Gloria Group Gift for FabFree. This vibrantly striped dress has a fringed shawl-like layer above long sleeves and a short flared skirt, definitely a head-turner. It is provided in eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizing. Visiting there is always a treat!


For something with a formal flare, head to ART & FASHION and examine their wall of various group gifts, where you'll find the EXPLOSION OF COLORS LONG DRESS for the FabFree group (look for the rainbow logo). Right click the image and pay $1L, which will be automatically refunded while your gift is delivered to you. The slightly sheer gown is included in fitmesh standard sizes for classic avatars, as well as sizing for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. The colors and artwork on the fabric are simply amazing, aren't they?


The FabFree gift from Tastic is their gorgeous Chrissy Fringe Dress. There are eBody Reborn, Freya, Isis, Kupra (Bimbo, Low, Original), Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes included, all with that plunging V neckline and scoop back above a playful fringed hem. We could wear this for a Valentine's date, or simply to turn heads any day of the year. 


Now when we arrive at Tastic, we head into the lobby and go to the left for the FabFree gift, but before you do please look in that lobby for the three large signs regarding Palomma and The Free Dove. The tribute image her partner Dollen created for her is in the center between two free shirts, the ladies' sizes and men's versions, which are both free with no group needed to claim. The Free Dove Memorial Top seen above is designed with quite possibly more sizes than I've ever seen for one single item...5 standard sizes plus Freya, Isis, Venus, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra Kups, Legacy, Perky, Petite, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, Physique, Prima Busty, Prima Petite, and TMP mesh bodies. It has the same image as the men's version, two doves holding a banner 2005-2023 above The Free Dove in gold script. The store is an institution that is familiar to so many of us, and I love the idea of honoring the store along with Dove herself with one lovely shirt. The store is still there, but I can guarantee there will be tears shed when I find out the time has come and the doors have closed, and I doubt I'm the only one who feels that way. Fly high, sweet Dove ♥.

I hope you're all having a wonderful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
