When You Can't Sleep . . . Try Sheep & Cupcakes

Nothin' cures a li'l insomnia like some freebies shoppin'. -- I figure between the munchies + counting sheep, I'm covered either way.
This ultra kawaii "frosting face" tattoo is free at Esuga in honor of Style Academy, a new fashion feed with an emphasis on high-quality photography. -- Speaking as someone who's always trying to improve my own photography skills, I must say there's sooo. much. crazy blogging talent on this special feed; I encourage everyone to check it daily, both for the gorges imagery + kickass styling tips from these truly exceptional bloggers. I'm part of the team working hard to bring this li'l feed to you; we really hope you enjoy it! *mwuahs Eilfie Sugarplum + all Style Academy bloggers + supporters*

The lingerie + cuppycake I'm wearing are also free; as is my fluffy sheep friend, who I named "Fluffer." Fluffer was quite happy with his name until Gavin informed him it had, um, a rather dirty "other" meaning. -- Poor Fluffer. *covers Fluffer's ears*

Yummy treats cure everything love + fashionista kisses to all!

Modavia & The Secret Store

Modavia's inworld group has reached 5,000 members and The Secret Store was kind enough to give the FrouFrou dress in an exclusive color to the group to mark the occasion.  There are several links to great gifts in the group that is free to join!  Search Modavia Fashion Marketing.

I am loving Cupcake's Cecile skin which is still out in the Copper tone for 50 L in their Sunday Bake Sale area.  I paired it with the Lovely makeup set which is also only 50 L.  The darling hair is free at Rush, a cute blond bob.  I met the designer, Destiny Leimes, while I was there and she is a darling! It's a cute store and this is like the second freebie I've picked up from there recently, so she is generous, too! Thanks again!

Some lucky chair stuff

I wanted to show you the items in the lucky chair at Duh! I love Duh for their inexpensive shoes and accessories, and recently, the lucky chairs have been updated with this bag in white and these shoes in white. You can find them on the second floor.

I decided to pair them with one of the not so new lucky chair prizes at elymode, these leggings in this color. Some notes about the shoes, they come with an alpha layer included, and this bag comes with sliver and gold chain options and also with and without pose as well.

(I usually use a white background but since white on white is blinding, I changed it to black. I can't always say that I'll do this style of posting by the way. I prefer doing features.)

Edit: Oops, I did not notice that I didn't put a slurl for elymode until this morning. Sorry.

Pink & Yellow Lemonade

Indie Rose has a pretty lemon-colored draped top for free that you can nab via the subscribo (look for it in the center of the store near all the other signs, on the wall).
I must've had lemonade on the brain today, 'cuz I added this free "Roman" bag by House of Fox in this luscious pink lemonade color. Some free golden romper bottoms + a $25L lemonade cuff finished this casual look.

Thirstquencher love + fashionista kisses to all!

Random Sunday Freeness

So, I was doing my '"freebie" rounds and picked up a few things I decided I had to show you all. In particular I really want to show you the gorgeous skin I'm wearing. This is available from the Mamboo Chic lucky board and is soooo pretty I fell in love with it right away! The oh so cute dress and matching headband are gifts from pr!tty. These are in boxes on the counter there, I have no idea how long these will be free for, so if you ewant them go and grab them!



Heres' a close-up of the skin:



Worn here:

Skin - (Mamboo Chic) - Iseb freebie sweet pale (lucky board win, 10 minute timer),
Ears - Mynerva,
Dress - pr!tty - Owls r kyoot (gift on the table),
Magical Sakura branch - Curious Kitties - spring festival gift,
Bangles - Ticky Tacky (old freebie),
Boots - DECO (past hunt gift, no longer available for free).

Next is a gorgeous bikini from Hucci, which is available for free (along with lots of other gifts) at the Costa Rica Welcome Center. The tattoo shown is from [White Widow] and is not free anymore as far as I'm aware, sorry.



And finally, after a couple of days of stalking, I finally won the gorgeous half-pants from Kloka's lucky board! Whoot!! The prize is actually a fatpack, with SIX different colours of pants included. Here I'm wearing the black pants, and paired them with the awesome 'hugs for Japan' freebie t-shirt from Rotten Toe. Rotten Toe also has a stall out for the Pacific Crisis, so why not do a little guilt-free shopping while you are there ;p



The lush lipstick worn here is one (of many) group gifts from MOCK Cosmetics. It costs L$100 to join the group, but seriously, Mocksoup Graves is crazy she gives away soooo many gifties, definately well worth the join-up fee!

OK thats your lot for today, have fun, and to all the British Mums out there, Happy Mother's Day!!

As our friend Cheza Reina observed, only real men can wear pink. Muy macho love + fashionista kisses to all!

In The Pink

A li'l pink never hurt anybody, 'specially when it's in the form of this $1L dress by Tres Beau. The skirt piece isn't flexi, but wow are these sheer white lace & floral leggings sure purdy.
If you join the Glance International A-List group in Search, you can head to the CheerNo Femme store to receive this pretty skin for free, complete with a pretty winged feather makeup around the eyes (see the Styling Credits for details below). So great for anyone in a more dramatic eye makeup mood.

It's A Good Hair Day

Click the subscribo at the new hairstore Milana to get the fatpack of this cutie shortie hair for free.
For anyone not familiar with this creator's "hair dye" system, you wear 1 hair + the accompanying HUD lets you "color" it (instead of having to wear a zillion different hairs). Not only is this creative + fun, but it saves on inventory bloat (always a big yay)!

Good hair day love + fashionista kisses to all!

Skin Fair Finds

I've been trying to do this post for days and finally finished some photos.  Modavia Productions is hosting the 3rd Skin Fair at Vanity Universe through March 6 and it's a great opportunity to check out new releases from many skin designers as well as pick up some nice gifts.  I can't begin to show all of the gifts here but I will show you a few of my favorites.  Right now it's fairly challenging to get onto the sim but there is still plenty of time.

The best thing I heard today is that Happy Finds is reopened.  Free*Style has blogged them in the past and I TP'ed there as soon as I got word.  Right now the group is free to join (don't expect that to last) and there are gifts in the notices as well as in the store along with a few great discounts.

I'm totally in love with the eye makeup included in (R E D) M I N T's gift.  The deep, deep blue show is topped with light shimmers and will be one I go back to again and again.

Skin: (R E D) M I N T: No.1. Pale Skin - Not free - available at the Fair
Makeup: (R E D) M I N T: (makeup) Frost No.03 - Free
Necklace: Happy Finds: Living Forever is Leafing - Group Gift
Hair: [e] - Play - not free

The gift from Your Skin & Your Shape is a fantastic skin that includes various hair base and cleavage layers. It's a nice, fresh face that should work well with makeup layers. I was sooo lucky to win the new hair in the Lucky Chair at Love Soul so I had to brag about it.  There are many new prizes in their 2 lucky chairs.

Skin: YS&YS: Susan: Free
Hair: Love Soul: I Love Nature: Lucky Chair Prize
Necklace: Happy Finds: Dark Owl Necklace: Group Gift

The other skin I really liked was the gift from al vulo.  The gift also includes eyes, which I've also shown.  It amazes me still how different your avatar can look just by changing your skin.

Hair: Exile: Kylie - Free along with several other styles!

You're So Money and You Don't Even Know It.

So, yeah. The last time I tried to blog the hsh lucky board, it went kaput between the time I won the skin + tried to blog it, so I figured I owed it to y'all to try again.
This girlie skin gift is only free until the 11th (I'm not sure what time SLT) so go + elbow your way thru the crowd pronto, like. Flip time is a hefty 30 mins but there's already a posse waitin' for this lovely deep blush skin.

Happy Kyoot Year!

Kyoot has recolored one of my favorite dresses and is offering it at a New Years gift.  The gift also includes a nice black sequined vest.  My skin is the lovely Precious skin in Christmas Yule makeup, which is a group gift.  Now nothing about this skin made me want to start saying "Ho Ho Ho" (though other things do).  Its a great year-round skin and I do like the base shades.  Also, before it ends RezIpsa has an amazing clearance sale on a lot of hair and clothing.  My favorite style of Rezzie's work is Eliza and I was able to pick up a version with snowflakes for cheap!

 See the skin close up!
