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.

Hair - So hard to find - Alli & Ali Designs

This is the first in a series of posts I will be doing on Free or Low cost hair.

Alli and Ali offers a free gift hair for men and women every week for Group Members., plus a second gift hair as a voting gift for Ladies. The voting is on a board with pics to choose what kind of style you'd like to see made next.

The group is free to join. In addition, they have MM boards, 1L promos on Marketplace, hunt gifts and special edition hairs. So here's some of what I found.


Melrosa is a former group gift hair in this color. It was free at the time but it's not any longer. I'm just showing you what you could have gotten. You can find this hair in a pinkish color on the marketplace for 1L however.


Kattryna is also a former group gift in this color.  You can find it in a dark brown color on the marketplace for 1L.


Loreley is the current group  gift hair in the platinum-pink. You can still grab it when you join the group at the main shop and then click the gift bag on the counter. There is also a petites version available for free. The milk chocolate tone also shown here is available on the marketplace for 1L.

I mentioned free voting gifts. Here's a couple of past gifts.


Tyra in this color is a free Voting gift from a couple of weeks ago. You can also find it in a blue black tone on marketplace for 1L.



Nantia in the blonde show above is currently available as a free voting gift. Just click the pic you like best and then click the gift bag.  You can grab the black version on MP for 1L.

There are quite a few other promo hairs on Marketplace as well. This is just a sample of what's available.

Here are two more gifts you can find. The first is a hunt gift for the Shabby Chic hunt.

If anyone read Anne of Green Gables as a kid, they may recognize the name. The hair looks like an old fashioned Gibson Girl type do and comes with four colors. In the main shop, follow the rose trail and you can't miss it, just touch the roses hunt object to be given the package.

This hair is a gift at the Womenstuff Lounge. There's a whole stack of gifts from various designers there. Keep in mind though that it does cost 50L to join the group. There is also a collection of gifts for Men nearby.


Here's a pic of the gifts at Womenstuff and you can see the little gift box for this hair circled.

So far I've showed you 13 hairs that are either free or 1L. That's pretty good. Now  let me show you a few hairs I picked up for 50L. These are part of a sale, in special colors through March.


The roses on this hair are color change!




These last four hairs and many others are on sale in this one color way for 50L each, find them in boxes around the shop, See the link above.

I do want to mention that most of these hairs I had to resize but they all come with a script for resize and for color change any colorable parts. For me, they were too large but a couple of clicks and a little moving around fixed that right up.

You're probably also wondering what I'm wearing.

The skin I'm wearing is a free group gift from FILTHY and the group is free to join. This is group gift #6 2013 in the Beach tone. Luckily I had already purchased the hand and feet appliers to go with the Filthy skin I bought at Skin Fair so I was all set to wear this.

The owner of FILTHY has stated that she will be removing the group gifts from the store soon so hurry down and grab the various items before they are gone!

The dress I'm wearing is from Wetherby's. Every day, Wetherby's puts out a free group gift item, but it is free for one day only. After that, the price goes up, usually to 99L. This dress was a gift from a few days ago. But don't let that deter you, join the group and snag today's item when it is put out. Also, Tuesday's are Menswear day so there's something for you Guys too. Oh, and Wetherby's usually puts their item out in the late afternoon or early evening of the day before. So for example, Tuesday's gift was put out yesterday afternoon and Wednesday's will be put out some time today etc.


The pretty little jewelry set I'm wearing is by Krystal. It was a 60L weekend offer.

Here's the pic from the Krystal notecard so you can see the detail better.


Here's a slurl right to the display, follow the beacon!


The shoes I'm wearing are a 95L offer at My Attic @ The Deck. I know that's more than 70 Lindens but it's still a great deal. These are for Slink High Feet. They are the Pigalle pumps in Electric Blue by Le Primitif. Follow the beacon to the display. There are lots of other great items at the event so look around.

I am so tired now. I hope you enjoyed the post and that it helps you find some hair to your personal taste for cheap  or free. Thanks to the Designers who offer so many great free and low cost items.
