Put your hands in your pockets!

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!

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.

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 :)

I’ve got some scrummy stuff for you today!

First up, there’s a new group gift skin at Al Vulo! The group is free-to-join (paste this link into chat and click it to bring up the group join window) so wear your group tag and head to the Al Vulo! store, then click the ad board inside the little shed outside.

Next, Mar is wearing part of the Finding FabFree hunt gift – a mesh top and mesh pants – from PurpleMoon Creations. You’re looking for a sculpted white number 5. At PurpleMoon, find the small poster advertising the hunt, and look for the footprints on the floor. They’ll lead you in the right direction! Full prize piccy is after the cut.

Finally, there are two gorgeous group gifties from PurpleMoon Creations. The group is L$50 to join (paste this link into chat and click it) so wear your group tag and head inside the store to the lobby area. You’ll find the lovely golden Elwing Gown on a big board there, which celebrates 17,000 members (wow!), and if you check the group’s notices you’ll also find the bonus earrings!

PurpleMoon 16,000 members group gift

PurpleMoon 16,000 members group gift

Here’s a gorgeous dress to wear at any time, but it’ll come in especially handy if you have a posh ‘do’ to go to at Halloween ;)

The PurpleMoon Creations group has reached 16,000 members, and as a thank you Poulet Koenkamp has set out the gorgeous Jules Gown in orange and black (gloves included) as a group gift.

The group has a L$50 join fee, but gifts of this quality are given out on a regular basis, plus wearing your group tag when purchasing in-store earns you store credit (and, since PurpleMoon takes part in many of the cheap store offers, such as 60L Weekends, if you buy those anyway it all adds up!). Copy this link and paste it into chat and click it to bring up the group join window, then – with your group tag active – head inside the store and find the large board beside the reception desk. Click it, and this gorgeous dress will be yours!

Maschienenwerk lives… as Santo!

Maschienenwerk lives… as Santo!

Glory be! Maschienenwerk has not vanished off the face of SL; it’s merely re-branded as Santo. There are slightly fewer freebie items than there once were, but still plenty to be had in the store. If you join the (free) group you can also get other items, such as a fatpack of ‘Kicks’ sneakers, and two photorealistic avatars: one male, one female.

It’s one of these avatars that I’m showcasing today. I’ve noticed that it’s relatively easy (as always) to find good-quality cheap and free black skins for female avatars, but for male avatars a bit of spending is required. Well, Santo has put out as a group gift this amazing Ron avatar, which features a muscular shape, a fabulously-photoreal skin, brow shape, and brown eyes:

You’ll need to join the Santo group (paste this link into chat and click it; it’s free-to-join) and have your group tag active in order to get the avatar.

The Affliction Jeans and Camo T are also free, and you’ll find those on the floor of the store. The 6-Colour Kicks pack is also a group gift, and if you look around at that end of the store you’ll find tons of other great freebies, from boots and sneakers to t-shirts and jeans, even some mesh clothing.

You’ll find Santo in the middle of the incredible Wastelands regions, so get your grunge gear out and head on out. Here’s your beat-up old Hummer to get there ;)

I look in my Magic Mirror, and I can see…

I look in my Magic Mirror, and I can see…

…Mar! Yay, she can see me!

Heck, if you don’t remember watching Romper Room as a tiny thing, then your childhood was incomplete! The excitement of the host seeing you in her Magic Mirror was brilliant! And here’s something else that’s brilliant: the cute little baby blue polkadot mesh romper that G.Field sent out as a subscribe-o-matic gift!

Everything in this pic is a free group or subscribe-o-matic gift (except for the jewellery, which is all free on Marketplace)! To make things easier I’ll list the group links and the stores below, rather than burying them in a load of text ;) Just paste the links into local chat in your viewer.

Romper: G.Field (store) – subscribe-o-matic gift
Hair: Dura-Dura* (store) (group) – thanks to Spacecase Munster‘s fab Virtual Vagabonds group for the tip about this!
Skin: Al Vulo!* (store) (group) – click the sign inside the little shed
Shoes: Gabriel* (store) (group)
Eyes: IKON* (store) (group)
Bangles: PM Delight Water Bangles Set (Marketplace)
Earrings: PM Delight Water Set (Marketplace)

*Group tag must be worn when clicking in order to receive your gift.

All groups are (at the time of writing this post) free-to-join. Please don’t come and yell at me if you come across this post in several month’s time and the group’s owners have decided to instigate a join fee!

Headsup & three gifts: the IKON group has changed!

Headsup & three gifts: the IKON group has changed!

Hi, peeps!

Here’s a quick headsup and also an alert for three fabulous freebie gifts, all in the same place. The IKON store has changed its group. Previously, the group was called IKON V.I.P. but it seems that too many people were confused by the periods in the ‘V.I.P.’ bit, so there’s now a new group, called IKON VIP. Not only is it easier to remember, it’s also holding three stunning packs of eyes in its notices right now, to encourage everyone to move over to the new group!

The group is free-to-join, and membership enables you (while wearing your group tag) to grab the monthly freebie that goes out in the store. If you’re a member of the old IKON group, you need to make sure you switch to the new one (you can leave the old one when you’ve changed over) because the old one will soon be gone. And anyone wanting fabulous eyes should join the new group anyway!

Paste this link into open chat in your viewer, open up the chat window, and click the link to bring up the group join window. Once you’ve joined, check the group’s notices for one pair of Sunrise Eyes in Arabian Blue Light, one pair of Horizon v2 Eyes in Pale Glass, and one pair of Utopia Eyes in Dark red (perfect for the vampires and otherkin among us!)

Here are the Sunrise eyes:
