Seldom a Fulo

Seldom a Fulo

Seldom a fool? *nudge* Geddit? *sigh* Yep, I think that’s my worst title pun to date ;)

Ladies! Hie thee to Seldom Blue and hunt for a pumpkin, to find this lovely free dress. Here’s a wee clue for you: It’s easy to find, but you must look behind/For this dress full of class, take yourself to the glass.

Hrm. I should’ve been a poet!

Also in this look are a fabby pair of earrings, which are a gift from Fulo! at the Flawless sim. Right now, there’s a cart sale at Flawless. Each designer has a small cart full of items on it, at least one of which is priced at just L$50. So hop over there and see if anything takes your fancy!

Put your hands in your pockets!

I seem to be all about free and cheap hair lately!

Firstly, with regard to the Exile Hair group gifts that I blogged yesterday: please read the edit on my previous post [ link ], as it seems that people are picking up the wrong item from the subscribe-o-matic and assuming the gift has been removed. It hasn’t been removed – it was re-packed and sent out again later because something was wrong with the original notice!

OK, onto today’s deal!

I sent Roxie out for a quick jaunt (mainly to make sure she grabbed that huge Exile Hair giveaway) and ended up at Pocket Mirrors, where she found some fab dollarbie and giftie hair.

Pocket Mirrors has an unusual style, and you should visit the store especially if you’re a lover of vintage hairstyles.

The dollarbie is a brilliantly-mad curled and knotted up-do called Myrtle, which comes in three colours: brick, light blonde, and majestic:

Hop behind the cut for the others. Guys, there’s male hair group gifts available, too!

Awesome Exile: three huge free fatpacks of hair!

Awesome Exile: three huge free fatpacks of hair!

UPDATE – PLEASE READ! The original notice sent out was borked. Many places have been telling you that you need to grab notice #2, but that one had something wrong with it. You need to grab notice #1 – screenshot before the cut – which begins: Oct 21, 12: 3 TRDB styles Have been released in all colors into my subscribo! THAT is the message with the gifts in it!

Okay, I’ll admit it. I actually clapped my hands, squealed, and would have hopped up and down if I wasn’t sitting in a chair. This is such an awesome gift!

Ladies, head to the Exile store and click to join the subscribe-o-matic there. Once you’ve joined, click again and look in the history for this fabulous gift. It comprises three styles from past Dressing Room collections, released in all colours. Your inventory’s hair folder will be heaving after this, because ‘all colours’ means 62 shades! (If you’re already in the subscribe-o, check that you received these!)

These are fabulous sculpted styles of hair: one cute up-do with a colour-change bow, one sexy, messy side-braid, and one elegant up-do. I’ve shown neutral shades here, but in those 62 colours you’re bound to find that special shade you love!

Here’s the first: Betty Lou, shown here in the Hollywood shade. Mar has (of course!) coloured her bow purple ;)

This is the notice you need to grab. Make sure you get the right one! It starts with 3 TDRB Styles released:

Hop behind the cut for pics of the other two styles :)

A Dura-ble gift!

A Dura-ble gift!

*groans* I swear, my puns are getting worse…

Ladies! Gents! Join the Dura group (paste this link into chat and click it to bring up the group join window; it’s free!) and hie thee – with the group tag active, to the Dura store. Inside, at the far end, you’ll find two gift hair fatpacks: one cute 12-colour curly up-do for the ladies and a long, 14-colour bowler-hatted style for the gents.

Hop behind the cut for a pic of the gents’ style :)

De-noob for Nowt: Golden Autumn

De-noob for Nowt: Golden Autumn

It’s been a while since I wrote a De-noob for Nowt post, and I’ve noticed that I seem to be moving away from ‘nowtiness’ and into ‘moneyness’ on the blog. Since this blog is called SL for Nowt, it seems rather silly of me to post almost exclusively about offers that you need some money for, be they the ‘up to L$75’ items, or the ‘L$50 pay-to-join group’ items. I need to start re-injecting the blog with nowtiness again!

To that end, I’m reviving this series of posts. The De-noob for Nowt posts contain entire avatar looks for free. Not a single Linden buck required to be spent. To that end, I have created a new alt (say hi to Ruth!) and she has absolutely NO money (poor lass!) I won’t be transferring even so much as L$1 to her, in order to buy a dollarbie. She’s skint and she’ll stay that way, so that I can bring you some entirely-freebie looks :)

Here’s the first, which I call Golden Autumn.

Everything in this look is absolutely free (and almost all from Marketplace), so hop behind the cut for more pics and info :)

She’s just a devil woman

She’s just a devil woman

(I never thought I would begin a blog post with Cliff Richard lyrics. Oh well… there’s a first time for everything!)

Ladies! PurpleMoon has a surprise group gift waiting for you at the store, and they’re in full-on Halloween mode! This amazing ‘Demonia’ outfit, complete with wings, claws, and hooves is free to all group members:

Mar’s teamed it with the new group gift from Al Vulo! – the Livia (Devil is a Woman) skin, cheapie jewellery from Eternal Jewelry, an amazing hairdo from Iconic, and spooky eyes from IKON. Her backdrop in the above pic is a group gift from KaTink Poses: a corner photo backdrop with a sword-embedded skull (three poses), fog and a bat emitter.

Hop behind the cut for a full pic of the avatar, plus locations and everything else!

Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Free bikini and poses

Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Free bikini and poses

Ladies, we all know we should be doing this, but here’s a timely kick-up-the-bum reminder from me ;)

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and it’s a time when we’re reminded that we should be checking our breasts every month. It’s only by getting to know our boobs that we can recognise anything unusual that we need to have checked out by a doctor. The Feel Your Boobies site has excellent advice on what to do.

KaTink is just one of the stores on the grid that are offering a free item in relation to the month. You can pick up this cute little pink bikini with sculpted ties, plus three poses, at the KaTink store:

Hop behind the cut for a great, quick reference card courtesy of the Feel Your Boobies site so you know what to do :)

Weekend smarts with R.icielli, YS&YS, and MichaMi

Weekend smarts with R.icielli, YS&YS, and MichaMi

Holy cow, I haven’t blogged a Dressing Room collection for ages! The new one is a good’un, though, so here are a couple of items from it, together with one item from the latest mesh clothing hunt at R.icielli :)

The Statement in Pink mesh skirt is from MichaMi at The Dressing Room. Mar has teamed it with just one item – the Blake Jacket in black – from R.icielli’s new Halloween Mesh Hunt, at their mainstore’s mesh department. There are 20 items hidden in the store (they’re very easy to find; just look for the big pumpkins!). Each item costs L$15 to buy, so even if you grab the lot you’ll only be spending roughly what you might pay for any full-price mesh item at any top store :)

Mar’s skin is the oh-so-pretty Sofia Fresh skin from YS&YS at The Dressing Room, and her earrings are a free group gift from Bliensen + Maitai at the Violet Mafia location. Paste this link into chat and click it to join the Violet Mafia group (it’s free, but a busy group, so you might want to disable group notices and check manually once a week), then head to the Violet Mafia Headquarters & Speakeasy, where you’ll find tons of great freebies. Just wear your Violet Mafia group tag and get clicking!

Not free/cheap items in the pic: Shoes are by HoC Industries, hair by Truth, eyes by IKON, nails by Love Soul, poses by Glitterati.

Hop behind the cut for a pic of all the items in the R.icielli hunt :)
