Partings

I rezzed on June 16, 2007. After being helped out of my newbie state, I began exploring Second Life™ and quickly fell in love with it. I quickly discovered that people actually gave away things, and just knew I had to share this news, so I began this blog.

At first, I included some of the business in a box freebies, since I didn't know any better, but quickly learned the difference between quality store freebies and business in a box freebies. My freebie collection journey continued alone until I was joined by Lorri (now showing as Sarah) more than a year later. We were joined by Claire, then Savvy. Claire returned to school and Havi joined us for several months, and there have been a few others along the way, but Savvy carried the bulk of the blog for most of this year, while I got busy with my inworld modeling career and agency management.

Hunting freebies on the grid these days can be a full-time job, and there are many other blogs doing a far better job of it than Virtual Freebies has been lately, as Savvy and I both became increasingly busy, and it's been difficult to find people to join us and carry on what was started 2-1/2 years ago.

Virtual Freebies has 43 loyal followers on blogspot, some on BlogCatalog, and even more on Bloglines. We've had 168,264 page views as of today, and there are 609 posts on this blog. It's been a fabulous run, and I've met some incredible people, designers and hunters alike, for which I'll be forever grateful.

But, with a great deal of sadness, I must announce that we've come to the end of the road. I'm allowing the virtualfreebiesblog.com domain lapse in January. I'm going to leave Virtual Freebies open at its blogspot address (http://virtual-freebies.blogspot.com) for historical purposes, and for whatever use people can get from it. Our sister blog, Virtual Fashionista, will remain open, although my posting to it will be sporadic, I'm sure.

Savvy and I want to thank all of you who have followed us. It's meant a lot, and your faithfulness kept us going at times when we just were't sure we could continue. Big hugs to all of you.

I could ramble more, but I'll close with - see you on the grid! Happy lives to all of you :)

MUA by Djinn & Tonic


MUA by Djinn & Tonic is being released TODAY at .44 Caliber's mainstore.

As part of the release, there is a free skin in the store as well as ways to win more free stuff!

Feeling Lucky?

There are 11 different prizes to be won, including some fat packs.

  • 5 winners will be chosen from the in-world Djinn & Tonic group. Search "Djinn & Tonic" if you have a group slot left. (There is a one-time membership fee of 250L).
  • 5 winners will be chosen from the subscribo group. Click the kiosk here.
  • 1 skin set will be given to one of Glance Magazine's members as well! (To qualify you have to not only be in Glance's group but you also have to be in the Djinn & Tonic group in world.)

The skins are absolutely gorgeous. Makeup colors include, Apple, Pomegranate, Deadly Nightshade, Hazel, Pumpkin, Fern, Broom, Sage, Mandrake & Mint. All these "ingredients" are used in Wiccan rituals, giving the skins a dark, mysterious feel.

Skins come in 3 tones, pale, natural & sun-kissed. The highlights and shading on the skin are very natural, and not over done. Bravo!

Skin packs generously include 20 skins! Each skin is sold by brow/shadow color and comes with (5) amazing lipstick shades, a freckle, and no pubic hair variation for a mere 1500L giving you value for your hard earned money.

My personality allows me to wear the more, dare I say, outrageous make up, so for me, the heavy shadow & the prominent lips are win! Let me know what you think!


Shown above I am wearing the Brunette Brown option. From left to right, shadow colors are as follows: Apple [Sun-kissed], Broom [Sun-kissed] & the gift skin [Natural].

There are 1500 skins with this release when you consider all the options available. This has been quite an undertaking!

Congratulations & kudos to Babyhoney Bailey her first skin release. I am officially hooked!

Be sure to stop by the store and try on these demos! They are wonderful, and I am confident that you will love how they "fit" on you too!

Hugs,
Sav

The hunt on the new Cupcake Sim ends tomorrow, so be sure to check that out, there are clothes & skins to be found. Some of the vendors participated in the hunt as well, so look everywhere!

SySy's has 2 delightful dresses. The first is called Autumn Roses, in Blue which is embellished with gorgeous prim roses.

The red Christmas mini, is perfect for holiday parties, and clubbing.

Kess Creations spoils us with holiday jewelry. This Festivus set is just part of the generous gift.



Dawny has gifts to decorate your home for the holidays.

Spork is offering this fun, striped socks, with the over the knee look, or sloppy, as shown below.

I have included links to the stores that offered gifts, however there is likely a main TP point, so you'll need to look for the beacon to find the store you're looking for.

Have a great weekend.

I think she's lost her mind!

Rachel at In Her Shoes and Hair @ Vignette sent out a notice stating that after years of loving SL, she had decided to give back, and that all of the shoes and hair were currently free. I don't know how long this will last, and as you might imagine, it's lag city over there.

Before I post the slurls, I'm going to state....there is a tip jar in one of the corners of the hair store....remember what hair and shoes cost you and you're getting an entire store for free. GIVE TO THE TIP JAR GENEROUSLY!!

You will also find a minion store of [hate this] deep in the cellar!



There are 4 original outfits, designed exclusively for this hunt, in some of the pumpkins around the store. They are FREE - if you can find them. Two of the outfits are for ladies, the other two look great on guys AND gals!

Here is a sneak peek of what's available! Below, is the "Fallen Leaves" male outfit from [hate this].


The dark brown denim style jeans look great on Justice, and I love how they hug my butt!


The female gift is just as fabulous. It comes with a leafy necklace, form fitting top, patterned leggings & skirt.


I think we need to check out more of what [hate this] has to offer. So far, I am loving it!


Below are the "Got Pumpkin" outfits from Cilian'gel.



Look closely at the stockings ladies, they are adorned with the cutest pumpkin, and ribbon!

You can remove the jacket, that Justice is wearing, and you have an outfit that looks something like this. (cool cap, also included!).



It had been a while since I had stopped by Cilian'gel, so I had a look around. You are still able to camp for goodies, pick up freebie t-shirts, and there is also an outfit for the "Making Strides" fundraiser.

Check out the goodness on the MM board!

Only 10 people are needed to get the gift. Help me out on this, won't you please?!
