Sexy, Free, and Single

This post begins with FREE and really gorgeous hair, available in the FREE BALL at Analog Dog/Point B. The free ball is a pale aqua blue translucent ball found on the beach at the large and unique shop.  From the landing point, follow the beacon to where the ball is located.

Here's a quick little screen grab of what the beacon looks like and also what the ball looks like. It's literally a red arrow like this so just follow it out to the spot where the ball is. You may need to increase your draw  distance if it's set at 32m or less because there's a little distance there between the beacon point and the ball.

 

Anyway, the ball contains 7 free hairs, plus a hud for the splash colors to change the tones. The splash colors are fantasy tones like pink, aqua, purple etc. And the hud allows for some ombre tones and even for tinting. Just buy the ball for 0L!

 

I'm wearing the lovely pop scotch hair today. The hair comes in two pieces, a mesh piece that attaches to the skull and a flexi piece that attaches separately. I recommend you click add instead of wear on the flexi piece.  I used the hud to change the color to this pink and black ombre color.

I know a lot of people have blogged this mesh top and the shorts that come with it from the Asteria Creations group gift. But I just wanted to wear the top and make a different outfit. Sadly, there's no alpha layer for just the top but I found that by wearing a slightly bigger size (medium instead of small) that the top fits fairly well without one.

Edit: unfortunately when I went to the shop to confirm the location of the gift and post a slurl, the gift was removed. It looks as if the shop has been remodeled so it may be the gift will be put back out but it wasn't there today when I looked. 

The jeans that I'm wearing are a gift from Cynful Clothing @ Club 108, follow the beacon directly to them. You will need to join the group to get them but the group is free to join.

My shoes are super sexy pink glitter zebra versions of the Vertigo pumps from N-core and they are FREE as a group gift.  The group does cost 50L to join however, but these pumps are a great pair of shoes.

 

Remember the clear out packs I mentioned at Izzie's? 10L boxes of goodness?

Well my necklace, earrings and bracelets all came from one of those boxes. There are four other colors of the necklace and earring set and both gold and silver versions of the bracelets and several colors in there.  Great value!

 

And this skin. Oh La La this skin. It's so darn perty!

It's a 99L offer at this round of Designer Circle. She's called Leandra and she comes in three tones. She comes with and without cleavage and with a couple of freckle tattoos if you like that look. Appliers are also offered for 99L. Leandra is by WoW skins and she is really a wow. Follow the beacon.

Here's a head shot I made cause she's just so stunning imho.

 

I'm wearing Liner by Boom - Liquid Glaze - Hot Pink  (They are in back of the main store, I don't know, maybe Boom is discontinuing them but they are great, 35L per color)

I'm also wearing lipstick from a FREE lipstick pack from Tilly on Marketplace. Click here for the page for the item and here for the marketplace shop. There are a few other free items there as well.
My nail appliers are from a set by Hello Dave. Get a 35 color palette, both fingers and toes for 99L.


I also want to mention that if you have a few lindens in your pocket while you are at Analog Dog/Point B, you should take a look at their discount hair. There is a large selection of nice hairs, most of them 75L a color pack, a few are 125L a color pack. Still a good deal!

Here's a pic of the area.

Follow the beacon to get there.

Things always worn that are not free/discounted:

Slink hands and sometimes feet.

Mesh lashes by Mon Cheri

Poses by Diesel Works. I use the Tillie photo stand with hud.

And that's it! I hope you enjoy the post, sorry about the one item being gone.

Thanks to the great designers for sharing their work with us.

In praise of joining groups - Baby Monkey

There are some shops out there that have group joins that require a fee. They are different amounts and we all have to decide if it's worth it to us to pay that fee to join that group. There are some groups that I think are very worth paying the fee, and this one... is about to have a free join weekend where the usual $250L joining fee will not be applied.

Here's the benefits:

1) Regular and generous group gifts.

 

This is a pic of the current group gift wall at Baby Monkey. The shop sells clothing and shoes and occasionally home decor items.  Be advised also that this shop uses a vendor system so the way group gifts work is that you pay it 1L and then it refunds it to you when it gives you the gift. And you must be wearing the group tag of course.

2) Great prices and refunds on purchases after you've purchased a certain amount. It goes in increments of 5, 10 and 15 percent. Baby Monkey now sells everything in fatpacks of 32 colors, shoes and boots are 300L a pack, clothing items are 150L a pack. But wait, there's more!

3) Group members get all new releases at half price for one week. That's right. Pay 150L for a fatpack of shoes or boots, or 75L for a fatpack of clothing items the first week after release.

Here's pics of the new releases right now at the shop.

 

Note the signs saying these items are 50% off for group members.

 

4) And as I said at the beginning of the post, Baby Monkey is having a free group joining weekend just a little more than a week from now which means you will be able to join the group, get all these great benefits and not have to pay anything to join. And there will be a new fatpack gift, guaranteed.

 

As it says there, the group gift wall will be cleared before the free join weekend but these new ankle boots will be offered to those joining then. And in my experience so far, the owner gives generously and often.  So mark your calendars and don't forget to make room for this group in your list.

Thanks for reading!

 

 

Feeling a little Boho today.

This post features a gorgeous FREE group gift skin by Lara Hurley skins. It's an older freebie, from Valentine's Day but super super worth grabbing if you haven't gotten it yet. The group is FREE to join and the gift box contains appliers for Slink hands and feet as well.

The dress I'm wearing is a 1L item on Marketplace and I think it's really unique because of the interesting shape of the skirt and the fringes attached. Click here to go to the item page. And here is the link to their marketplace shop, since they don't have one in world. There are a few other 1L and 10L items there available too.  Be advised that the dress seemed to run a little small to me, I usually wear a mesh small and had to wear a medium instead.

The jewelry I'm wearing is a FREE Midnight Mania gift at Baby Monkey. You do not need to be a member of the Baby Monkey group to hit the board and win the item. The Cabochon Jewelry set comes with Necklace on Spine or Chest attachment points, earrings and bangle bracelets.

 

The next two items, I'm going to call, out of my price range but really good deals. Both of these are more than 70L but I do think they are fantastic bargains and worth considering if you have the lindens.

First my shoes are add ons to the Slink Medium Feet. They are by SySy's and are called simply Bow Wedges. They are available at My Attic @ The Deck for a limited time for 95L, until the end of this month. There are a number of other great deals at the event, so don't delay taking a look around there.

My hair is also an out of my price range/really good deal. The Katniss 2 hair by Catwa is a special promo on Marketplace only. It's priced at only 99L. There's a hud for making the part across the forehead whatever color you like. That link above should take you directly to all the listings for that hair. 

Finally, I'm wearing a FREE eyeshadow from Mock Cosmetics.  Follow the beacon and buy the Easter Egg gift for 0L, it contains 3 free eyeshadows.  I'm wearing Easter Egg 3.

Also want to mention I am on Flickr and Facebook now so if you want news of new posts, you can get it there. I suggest looking at my Flickr anyway as the pictures are much bigger and easier to see details.

The usual suspects -

I always wear SLINK hands and often SLINK feet.

I always wear Mon Cheri's mesh lashes - Falsies Pack 1

I always wear Fresh Eyes Aster from By Snow on Marketplace

I always wear Boom - Liner and Mascara - Medium

The nail appliers worn today are by Vivid, and I'm pretty sure they were a former group gift at the Cosmopolitan room.  Vivid has closed its doors in world due to RL considerations but they are still on Marketplace. This is polish pack 11 and if you notice, the patterns on the nails match the patterns on the dress.

Thanks for reading and thank you to all the great and generous designers that share their items with us.
