What’s happening in Second Life?

Domina

blue Events, LotD

The Happy Event is celebrating their second anniversary at the moment, and there are FREE gifts available just by joining the FREE event group.  The event runs until the 28th of the month.

There are some nice outfits among the gifts, but in some strange colors.  This is the most redhead friendly outfit, color-wise 🙂

The top and tights are separates.  The materials are well done and give the right latex look to the outfit.  There are sizes for Lara, Legacy, eBody, Erika, and Kupra, and the top comes in Lara Petite too.  An alpha is included for the leggings (which go to the ankle, and I cropped, because… too lazy to deal with weird foot shadows 😛 )

FLF birthday bash

blue Events, LotD

Speaking of birthdays, the Fifty Linden Friday group is also celebrating their birthday with an event.  It runs until September 8th, and there are dozens and dozens of FREE gifts from the creators, yours for the asking by wearing the FREE FLF group tag.

I went through all the gifts and these are the two standout outfits.  There’s also lots of jewelry, home deco, and other things!  You should check it out!

This first outfit is from The Forge.  I’ve written before about how I get into trouble and buy stuff when I see their displays.  This time I resisted, and just picked up the gift 🙂

The top and bottoms are separates and both are sized for Lara, eBody, and Legacy.  This would make a great base for a sci fi outfit I think.

The second outfit is nearly too yellow for my hair, but I wanted to show it to you because of the nice texturing detail.  Its top and dress are also separates, and both pieces are sized to fit Lara, Lara Petite, Legacy, and Legacy Perky.

Both of these are available at the Fifty Linden Friday Birthday Bash.

Uber’s 8

blue Events, LotD

It’s Uber‘s 8th birthday this month, and lots of the creators at the event are offering FREE gifts to celebrate (although most are for some reason offering the gift only if you visit their store, which is tedious if you want to look at all the gifties).

This bodycon suit and gloves is the gift from Tori Torricelli, and can be picked up at their in-world store while wearing the Uber event tag (FREE to join).

There are sizes for Lara, Lara Petite, Legacy, and Legacy Perky.  The gloves are separate from the bodysuit but paired (you can’t wear just one).

A HUD is included with settings for the glitter to make it more sparkly (it’s animated too!), and to hide or show the frills.  There’s also the option of changing the front or back of the suit to fishnet.  This is a very nice gift and will turn heads wherever you choose to wear it.

Planet Boo.. wait, what?

blue Events, LotD

OK, I didn’t know about this event!  The Boobies Planet Event?  OMG 🙂  Well, an interesting bodysuit is available for FREE if your join their FREE group…

This is from a store called Hot Stuff, and with the see-through fishnet top, which you can also hide via the four color HUD, they’re sure living up to their name!   There are sizes for Lara, Lara Petite, Reborn, Kupra, Legacy, Legacy Perky, and Erika.

Spotlight

blue Events, LotD

Of course, one of the creators giving away store credit at SLB19 is Blueberry.  There’s L$300 credit for all comers!

I went to Blueberry’s main store to look for something to buy with my credit so I could do this post, and how could I go past this bodysuit? It’s part of a new set of clothes called “Spotlight”, which includes jeans, a jacket, and boots.  My L$300 gift was not going to get me very far with the full outfit, but as I liked the bodysuit anyway, and as it’s probably the most versatile piece, the bodysuit it was!

It’s L$250 for a single color (that sneaky L$50 left over again!), but there are fatpacks, mega packs, and tops, jackets, and jeans packs, all available for various prices.

The bodysuit is sized to fit Lara, Lara Petite, Legacy, Legacy Perky, Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Physique.  It comes with a HUD allowing you to set the fabric to sheer or opaque, and to adjust the waist length.  This last feature makes it super useful, not only as a bodysuit, but also as a top!  And it’s tight fitting enough so that it should easily go under whatever mesh jeans you have, making it suitable for a range of outfits!

You can find Blueberry at SLB19 via the list of direct teleports for all creators at SLB19 Shop & Hop.

I’m a sucker for anything with corset lacing.  When I visited ZK Store armed with a L$300 gift card available at SLB19 and saw this dress, the decision on what to spend my gift on was easily made.

The dress is L$250 for a single color (yes, that sneaky L$50 left over, temping you to top up the card…)

It’s sized to fit Lara, Lara Petite, Legacy, Reborn, Freya, Erika, Erika Petits Seins, Kupra, Kupra Cups, and Kupra Corset.

There’s a HUD included which lets you choose from a range of panty and metal colors, show or hide the panties, and enable or disable materials.  I don’t know why you’d want to disable materials, they look fantastic!

A number of creators at SLB19 are giving gift cards (or store credit) to all comers.  I really like the idea of doing this, because you get a gift you’ll actually enjoy and use, because you pick it yourself.  On a more cynical note, I suspect creators love this idea too, because they get you to their store, and generally the credit is set up so that you have some left over after a purchase, tempting you to top up the card to use the remaining credit 😉

One of the creators giving away credit is vagrant.  Surprisingly, I only have one other thing from them in my inventory, and I can’t remember where I got it from, so this is the first time I’ve actually visited their store.  They have some very well done outfits and their entire store is currently discounted by 50%!

This outfit caught my eye.

The top and the shorts are sold separately, and both are priced at L$200 (with the discount).  Fortunately the gift was L$500, as normally, even with the discount, I’d hesitate before spending L$400 on a single outfit.

Sizes are Lara, Lara Petite, Freya, Legacy, Legacy Perky, and Reborn.  There’s also an unrigged version of the shorts included.

The top has a HUD that lets you select a color for the base fabric.  The shorts HUD has the same fabric selection, plus a whole lot of options.  You can select colors for the panties and pockets, and you can hide or show both (I’m not showing the pockets in these photos, but you can set a bunch of little sayings on them too).  The shorts are also adorned with some sparkly gemstones, which (in my opinion, fortunately) you can hide too.

Just because Hair Fair is open, don’t forget that the SLB19 Shop and Hop event is still going until the 10th of July too!

Here’s another FREE gift from the event.

This top and skirt are separates and are sized to fit Lara, Legacy, and Reborn.  The outfit also comes with a set of puffy elbow sleeves, which I’ve chosen not to wear.

A HUD is included with four denim textures for the top and sleeves, and four solids for the skirt.

Here’s a list of direct teleports for all creators at SLB19 Shop & Hop, where this gift can be found.

Hair Fair 2022

blue Events, LotD

Hair Fair is open today!  It runs until the 10th of July, so there is tons of time to visit.

There is a small number of FREE gifts available, and for me the standout was this updo bun.  It’s only in browns, but it does have a tint HUD, which allowed me to get a dark red.

The hairdo comes in four different styles and includes a variety of differently styled bangs as well.  It’s unrigged and therefore resizable and you can reposition it.  The HUD includes a selection of mostly dark browns, and with the mesh detailing and the ability to turn materials on provided by the HUD, produces a nice realistic look!

As I mentioned, there is a tint HUD included, but the base colors are dark browns, which mostly resist tinting, so if you’re exclusively a blonde, this one’s not for you 🙂

Oh, and Hair Fair supports Wigs For Kids, a worthy charity.  Don’t forget to buy your bandana while you’re at the event!
