I&#8217;m completely in love with it, and it&#8217;s absolutely free! But before we get into that, I&#8217;m taking you to <a href=\"http:\/\/maps.secondlife.com\/secondlife\/Gallii\/110\/42\/33\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Free Dove<\/a> to pick up that slinky pink dress by Tiffany Designs, which is perfect for a hot Valentine date! (That link will give you a red arrow to follow, taking you directly to the dress&#8217;s location at the back of the store.)<\/p>\n<p>The dress comes with tons of options, including clothing layers for classic avatars, an all-in-one applier for Slink, Maitreya, Belleza, and Omega, a mesh skirt piece (in several sizes), prim extras for those lovely floaty lace sections around the legs, and the pearl jewellery (necklace, bracelet, and stud earrings). Absolutely, bargainously free!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/luscious02.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"814\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next up, head to Marketplace to spend a measly L$1 on <a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.secondlife.com\/p\/Mayden-couture-Nicole-Silver\/1639365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">these shoes by Mayden Couture<\/a>. They come with a pretty easy-to-use skin colour HUD, with presets to start you off and you can then fine-tune the shade to match your skin. An added bonus (especially for newbie girls who don&#8217;t have the money to spend on Slink feet) is that they come with sculpted feet. I know that Slink feet are gorgeous &#8211; heck, I own them! &#8211; but when you&#8217;re new to SL and don&#8217;t have the L$675 to spend on a pair of feet, you still want some nice heels. I noticed that, even at the Free Dove, most of the female shoes are now for Slink High feet, which is surprising. I would have thought to see a few more options for non-Slink wearers, especially since the Free Dove is all about helping newbies! I know that few people are really making shoes with included feet these days, but still&#8230; :(<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/luscious03.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"936\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And, finally, we&#8217;re heading to <a href=\"http:\/\/maps.secondlife.com\/secondlife\/Seascape\/154\/56\/3701\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">JStyle<\/a>. This is the place you&#8217;ll need to join the group for.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> All of the JStyle groups send out a <strong>lot<\/strong> of notices (they tend to be multiple repeats of the same notice for several days, until a new notice comes out), so I strongly suggest that &#8211; if you stay in the group(s) &#8211; you disable group notices for each of them, and just check them manually once a week for new items.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The group is the <a href=\"\/\/\/app\/group\/b13f5d0e-60c3-f6a5-2996-85d2a69e3670\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">JStyle Mesh Head group<\/a>. (Don&#8217;t get as excited as I did, thinking you get a free mesh head!) You&#8217;ll need the group tag active, and once you&#8217;ve done that, click the box for the Mesh Head group gift on the desk just inside the store. Inside this box you&#8217;ll find that stunning curvy shape, the skin (complete with makeup &#8211; please note this is a system skin only. There are no appliers), the hair, a brow shaper, and an alpha layer to help you with the hair. Mar did need a hairbase under it, so she used the pink shade of <a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.secondlife.com\/p\/Amacci-Hairbase-Tattoos-FAT-PACK\/1291358\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amacci&#8217;s free hairbase tattoo layers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/luscious04.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"596\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Another little note: This hair isn&#8217;t rigged 100% perfectly. I noticed that, when Mar moved her head, the hair sunk into her face a little on the right side. The hairbase tattoo made up for it, and since it&#8217;s absolutely free, it&#8217;s not anything to kick up a fuss about. I just like to warn my readers in advance, so make sure you get those hairbase tattoos to wear under the hair :)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you&#8217;re up for joining another (free) group, you can pick up another lovely mesh hair in the store &#8211; just a little to the right. There are currently female and male mesh hairstyles absolutely free to members of the <a href=\"\/\/\/app\/group\/7e4ff865-ba7d-cc66-5d6a-ae5157ed5450\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">main JStyle group<\/a> (again, <strong>very<\/strong> active, so disable group notices unless you want to be swamped!) Make sure you click the large images with the group tag active, not the smaller boxes underneath them.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a shot of the store and various locations:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/luscious08.jpg\" width=\"703\" height=\"303\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On the left you can see the desk with the hair and skin etc gift in it. There&#8217;s a second gift of a pink mesh dress (that requires yet another free-to-join group!) so if you want to grab that, do! And on the right you can see the two group gift mesh hairs. Make sure you click the big pictures! I&#8217;ll show a close-up of the female hair at the end of this post.<\/p>\n<p>Mar&#8217;s eyes and mesh lashes are both from default starter avatars, which you&#8217;ll find in your inventory&#8217;s library. The eyes are from the &#8216;Iliana&#8217; avatar and the lashes from the &#8216;Leah&#8217; avatar. You can edit the lashes to fit your eyes quite easily.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/luscious05.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"523\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And here&#8217;s a better look at that stunning shape. As I note in the image, it&#8217;s NOT modifiable, but it states that it&#8217;s for Medium Standard Sizing, so any mesh clothing that&#8217;s in the M size should fit it. And honestly, that face is super-cute and so worth it!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/luscious06.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"868\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lastly, here&#8217;s a close-up of that other ladies mesh hair group gift from JStyle:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/luscious07.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"616\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No mesh body or body parts required.
