Ooh La

I think we all know the situation where we try to fit too much stuff in a too small bag. But who knew it would lead to some cute poses? Go over to Storin's newest satellite store at Albero and you can struggle with a bag too!
But before you start stuffin' your bag, hop on over to Nuuna's skins and get her latest cheapie. A pitch black skin with a green accent. You know you want it!

Fantasy Faire - Last Day!

Cupcakes, cupcakes. If you haven't been to the Fantasy Faire yet, today is your last chance! I know this is a freebie blog, but I'm going to show you some great finds you can get for a great price at the Fantasy Faire! If this is the first time you've heard about it, the Fantasy Faire is a RFL event that is benefiting the American Cancer Society. Each store has RFL vendor items for sale. Some are $500L, some are more, some are less. The RFL vendor items' proceeds go to the ACS. If you're going to spend money, make your lindens count for this great cause.

Evie's Closet, known for gorgeous, romantic gowns with a medieval and elven twist, has out some really lovely items for $50L each.

Plus, a super cute mouth munchie - a mermaid for your mouth! It's really cute and it emits bubbles!

Starlust & Zombie Jesus love you

Hola Cupcakes! Happy Easter from Texas! As you know, there have been quite a few hunts. One in particular is the Starlust egg hunt which is still going on now. It's not rocket science -- just find the big ol' eggs laying around. They're not hard to find, trust me. Most, if not all, are not free, but they're a steal! For example, I got the + blacklisted + shirt for $10L and I love it. So much, in fact, that I went to a zombie RP sim and got up close & personal with the zombie of my dreams. Too bad I had to shoot him in the face. Remember, ladies and gents -- you need to destroy the brain!

Frugal Fashionista: Clothing Fair on a Budget

Hello mi amorcitas! Yes, that lovely time is upon us once more: Clothing Fair! I know you all want to help raise money for the American Cancer Society by attending! Unfortunately for some, they want to participate but are limited on the Lindens. Not to fear! You can find some really cute stuff that won't make you break the bank! This morning, I went snooping around the eight (YES, EIGHT!!) sims for CF10 and found some cute free gifts and some items that won't leave you hurting for cash.

*Sari's* is an interesting store that has a spot on the New Delhi sim at CF10. Specializing in boho clothing with a strong Eastern flair, I felt like a kid in a candy store, snatching up all of the goodies that owner Sari Telling set out. When one puts on clothing from *Sari's*, you can help but feel like you're one of those people who, without prior warning, dropped out of college and ran off to India to go "find yourself" while bumming around on one of the many gorgeous beaches in Goa.


Boho Gal

The skirt & top are $65L each. Aren't they cute? The necklace & bracelets are also available at CF10 and are a staggering $10L a pop. I'm also wearing a bindi from her pack of five bindis for $10L (available at CF10).


At CF10, *Sari's* also has out a cute gift, this Bollywood dress!
Boho Gal1


The cute dress below is from her RFL vendor (meaning that the proceeds go towards the American Cancer Society!) and it's only $75L.
Boho Gal3


Finally, I present to you one of Zaara's RFL vendor offerings (which is in the New Delhi sim as well): this cute diamond top in pink for $75L. I love Miss Zaara's clothing, so I didn't even hesitate to snatch it up! :)
Boho Gal2


So make sure you stop over to Clothing Fair 2010! Get some cute clothes and help keep the hope for a cure alive!

Every 3 minutes you get a new chance to stick your head in the tub and catch an apple. Also, new flats from 50 flats at alot of store locations, lol! When I picked up the ones from the festival at Albero, I found a cute shirt from sen*2 for 1L, only a few booths further. Go me huh? The pants that I'm wearing are part of the 50L friday thingy! Untill midnight SL time they will be 50L over at Fishy Strawberry.

Fall is in the air...

What does fall/autumn mean to you? To me, it means breaking out the sweaters and scarves for the impending colder weather. Fortunately, you can find some cute fall gear at various stores.


Zeery designer/owner Zeerya Pyrithea let me know that she has some sweet deals in her store! I love her textures, and everytime I pop over to Zeery, I'm always wondering what she'll come out with next. At the moment, she has a cute dollarbie shirt - the Femme Tank in LakeSide Golden Wheat (blue and goldish, quite lovely) and a beautiful cashmere scarf called Aurora Australis, which is a multitude of colors, each one fading delicately into the next.


In the picture below, on the left side, I'm wearing the newest Exile group gift - Maren in "a touch of pink" (check out the bangs - a nice touch).

One sweater, two options. Love it.


*G Field also has two pairs of special Halloweeny boots for sale at $30L each. Lovingly crafted, these boots are perfect for the season!

Halloween, roses and V.. yay!

Likka*house turns two & to celebrate there's a beautiful white gown put out as a gift. It will be available till Oct 13.
At the Halloween room above the Hani mainstore you can find a lovely Halloween special, just 10L for a very pretty dress. There's also a Halloween dollarbie at Cynful. It contains a top with three lace options (black, white or no lace) and jeans. Since the jeans are lowrise and I'm still a prude, I am LOVING the buttcrack tape my friend Nuuna made <3
If you're not into tape, the jewelled sweater from Fishy Strawberry can also keep your private regions warm...

Skin Expo or "Why Pumpkin's Linden Account Is Empty"

Sigh.

It's like all of the skin designers got together and said, "Hmm...how can we make people go broke this month? Ooh! Let's all get together and release our gorgeous new skins at the same time and donate some profits to charity!!"

They're evil, I tells ya! It's okay, though. Let me warn you: I will be showing non-free skins as well as some free ones because they truly are lovely. I'll mark the non-free ones.

Exodi has out some great freebies from the "Lily" line, the 'Frosted' makeups. The tones are as follow: cedar, cherry, dove, elm and they come with dark and light brow options. In the pic below I'm wearing the dark brow option.

Likewise for [RockBerry], as Miss Heather has put out some cute skins from her "Megan" line.

Damiani has a gift for the ladies which includes this bikini that has an opened and closed option. Pretty neat!

Open sesame!

Kunglers released another gift for the members of it's in-world group! You know it's gonna be a good day when they treat us to another present, since they always give out such great stuff!

Showing some skin.

It's common knowledge, given my previous posts, that I might have a *slight* skin addiction. Most people might say that the first step to beating any addiction is to admit that you have one. Well, maybe this is one addiction I don't want to fight? So ha! To my fellow skin whores, this post is for you!


&Bean sent out some group gift skins, so if you're in their in-world group, make sure you get them! They're perfect for the upcoming Halloween season...or even just for stumbling around the grid in! They're not for everyone, but they might just be your cup of tea. They released boy skins and girl skins, so that's good for all of you guys who enjoy getting free stuff too! In my picture wearing the girl skins, I'm wearing the facial piercings from Otaku Designs. It's their Twisted Hunt gift!

Next up is this group gift of skins from a new-to-me store called Aimesi. I found out about these skins from one of our Cupcake readers, Miss KawaiiNicole. Thanks Nicole! They have 8 skin tones with three makeup options for group members. That's right, 24 skins total. In the store, they also have four bikinis for free, which I'm wearing in the pics below!

A very generous gift from Aimesi.



ElfPyre is currently having a skin naming contest! If your creative juices are flowing, this should be up your alley. Grab the demo skin here (the skin is demo marked on the body only, not on the face) and write a short essay explaining why Daarc's newest skin line should be named...say, Rocky. Then send the essay and a picture to Daarc Dagger. The deadline is September 20th and a winner will be picked about a week later. What do you win? The entire skin line for free before it's released to the public and the opportunity to model the skins for ads. Good luck to any participants!


ElfPyre skin - naming contest!
Will my name be 'Rocky'?


My new favorite skin place, Pink Fuel, is involved in another hunt (the Diamond Hunt) and has another skin up for grabs! Laleeta blogged about it hurr, but that didn't stop me from showing off Mochi Milena's skin yet again! :-D I'm also wearing the S.O.S. Hunt gift from Modd.G., which is a really cute dress that would brighten anyone's day right up!


Modd.G. S.O.S. hunt gift & Pink Fuel Diamond hunt skin
Beautiful skin and a dress - both for free!


Last, but certainly not least, is a DSN gift I got from *Reale*, which is a lovely pink dress. It has delicate lacing and is just gorgeous. If you're subscribed to the DSN but haven't gotten it, don't worry, you might be getting it soon! *Reale* also has this dress on sale at their main store for $200L and in various colors.

I am getting marriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiied!

Okay not really but you might! And if you do I highly recommend to swing by Eternity Brides to check out their new Florence Bridalwear Range, it's truly gorgeous.

Plus if you do you might find some bargains there...

Lingerie set 1l, Eternity Brides
Florence dress only for 100L, Eternity Brides

You can find Eternity Brides on the second floor from the landing point and just because I know you guys want to see me wear a wedding gown (read: I did) here is a pic of the Florence wedding gown.

Florence Bridalwear Range 1300L, Eternity Brides

The gown isn't purplish as it might look on this picture but actually just as white as the dress featured above. But isn't it gorgeous? I made myself get all mushy over it! I might start wearing it around just because it's that awesome! Oh and if you guys get married wearing it then I want you to send me pictures you hear me?

I mean it!
