Boots & shoes
Sentou Yousei (battle fairy) are changing their subscribo system, and as a thank you to anyone who signs up for the new one they are giving these slouchy boots away free. They come with male & female version, are resizable and have optional sounds. Go grab them, they are fab.
These are Hawtspur “Mrs Claws” boots – a christmas gift from Xcentricity. The spur on the back can be retracted by clicking the laces – and the detail is amazing. A matching peaked cap is also included with the gift. You can buy a fat pack of colour and texture change versions very reasonably. There is some great stuff in this store, so do have a look around.
These can also be found for free at Xcentricity. They are PixieKnickers D’Fly Pixie Pumps in “Ice Queen”. They have dragonflies at the heel and toe, and emit snowflakes.
These fur-trimmed boots are the current dollarbie from Sole Sisters
and finally these are the female boots part of the Le.Look sim 1st anniversary free avatar. They are made by Bax Coen and can be collected along with all the other parts for the next few days.

Get Le Look!
This has been blogged a fair bit, so apologies if you’re sick of the sight of it. However, the Le Look sim is celebrating it’s first anniversary by releasing two complete avatars, one part per day, for free. There is one of each gender and the parts are being supplied by designers with shops on Le Look. This is day four, and so far we’ve got:
male - shape from Le Look, hair by Find Ash (this is mod so you can tint it whichever colour you like), skin by Belleza, trousers by Redgrave [these are great - they just look a bit rubbish in the pic], sweater from WMD.
female - shape from Le Look, hair with hat from Maitreya (you get blonde and brunette), skin by LeLutka, leggings from Source, shorts from Beauty Avatar, top from Zaara.
There are lots more bits to be released, and the previous parts are left out, so you don’t have to go every day to collect them – which is just as well as the sim has been full a lot, so can take a few attempts to TP in. You need to join the group [free enrollment] and have the tag active before clicking the big sign by the landing point [be patient & let it rez - there is an outline of each part - the available ones have a picture on of the item. Click the relevant picture to get each item]. It’s worth joining before you get there as the lag can make it slow for the group membership to go through. It’s worth the hassle though as the items you get are really good quality by top designers.

More stuff
This cheeky number is the latest subscribo gift from Glam Couture – you get it in black, white, red and green, each with a different decoration around the hip.
This is Blacklace‘s “naughty little gift” that you can find by the big tree in the lingerie section – click on the big poster of it to buy for 0L. You get bra, panties, stockings and pasties on lots of layers.
Dilly Dolls has a number of gifts under the christmas tree in store, and also this for group members (free to join). It’s called Kawaii Koala Yellow and includes the boots. You can find it on the wall behind the tree in the new section – you’ll need your tag active to claim it.
The skin I’m wearing in all pictures is today’s group gift from Atomic – called winter-porcelain- frost. It’s really pretty – group join fee of 250L but well worth it for the quality of gifts sent out.

Group/Subscribo goodies
Note: This will be a fairly long post & I’ll add to it through the day, so do check back later!
Truth have two gifts current in their subscribo – this hair which comes in four shades (complete with baubles & snowflakes) and this unisex scarf – that comes in 10 different colours. Click it and choose history – the gifts are 2nd & 9th December.
Gala & Rita Design Announcements – the inworld group for Curio – have just sent out this skin called elf to the group. It comes with 10 different versions & is their latest release. Their skins are incredible and it’s a very generous gift. The group is free to join.
Cardigan & armwarmers from SilentSparrow – not free, but there is a version of the armwarmers in the group notices (250L join fee)
The boots Sorzun is modelling are the current group gift from Js. You can pick them up in store by clicking on Santa. You must have your group tag active, but it’s free to join. There are male & female versions included, and the quality is awesome. [These are all over the blogs, but couldn't resist including them!]
The waistcoat & waistcincher are the latest group gift from SilentSparrow – you can pick them up in the gift shop as long as you have your group tag active. The hair is a different shade of the Truth gift.
Baiastice have released lots of gifts lately: on left “pearl silk party dress” which will only be in group notices for a couple more days. Under the tree outside the main store can be found the male outfit and the red “christmas dream” dress, which includes jewellery.
I (on the left) am also wearing the current gift from Duh! winter knit nordic boots (just seen) and the hair is the latest subscribo gift from Clawtooth called “good morning” in “peeled carrots” shade lol.
This outfit is the subscribo gift at Deviance, and the boots are available in store for either free or 1L. Both come with a variety of santa hats. The skin is a new dollarbie at Lazolli – three have been put out. One with this skin and a shape, another with several shapes and the third with this pose in.
This is one of two dollarbies available at [Cynful] “corset overall” comes with two different cuffs for the trousers, and the corset can be worn with black or white lace, or as an underbust version with no lace. The skin is another tone of the Curio gift mentioned earlier.
This jumper is a dollarbie in store at DCNY. The shorts & leggings are the other dollarbie from [Cynful] – these come with white leggings as well as thong -showing options. There is also a pair without leggings, so very flexible. The boots are the gift from Duh! mentioned above.
This is the peppermint katty dress in green from the newly resurrected scary santa lucky chair at Katat0nic. There are three colour options in the chair – green, blue and red.
This last one is a bit of a mash-up! The top is the white lace version of the Cynful corset, the skirt and tights are freebies from *Fake* – there are six different patterns of tights, and can be found outside the store. The armwarmers are a group gift from Exodi and you get three patterns. Phew! That’s it for now….

Exclusiva 1L Avatar
Exclusiva (formerly Victoria V) have released a limited edition 1L avatar, available until Christmas. It is inspired by Rita Hayworth and includes a gown that could grace any red carpet! This package has been created in partnership with other designers and is well worth picking up. It includes a shape, skin, eyes, eyelashes, hair, a floral hairpiece, jewellery, shoes and the lovely gown.
In these pictures I am wearing everything apart from the shape (but you can’t see the shoes!). Exclusiva produce some gorgeous gowns – especially bridal (got my own there, lol) so make sure you hit the subscribo for future news & gifts.

Naughty & Nice Winter Dreams
This lovely Christmas dress called Winter Dreams is available free at Naughty N Nice. The necklace is included, and the snowflakes & fur details are lovely. The downside is you have to hunt for it in the little market outside the main store. But you’re all professional freebie hunters, so I’m sure you’ll track it down – and there are several other freebies/dollarbies dotted around the market area too. If you get really stuck drop me an IM
