Free but not cheap :)
I was asked how much I spend on SL clothing... well to say the truth, not much even if I tend to buy a few hairstyles or shoes. For the rest, it's possible to live on quality freebies or nearly, just buying a good piece from time to time.
To do so, I subscribe to the groups of the shops I really like and get rewarded for it. For example, I've got a great free "carton" from BP* subscribe group recently... OK, it's not clothing but that's to illustrate the way it works :)
I'm a big fan of BP* products, maybe as much as those of Sugar Cube (thanks Yuuki for this new hairstyle I'm wearing now)... Just to quote two of the groups I've subscribed to.
For example, today's outfit:
- gloves: free from inventory library
- Bambi tights: free from DP Yum Yum (seen on Free*Style) and a real piece of cutery
- skirt and shirt: free from RAC (seen on Free*Style)
- disco sweater and scarf: 1L from Relika
- short Bambi socks:DP Yum Yum (seen on Free*Style)
- Cowrie hair clip: free but I don't remember from where... My fav hair thing :)
- love letter post: 100L from BP*
- black ballet flats: not free from SurfCo (seen on Sugar Cube)
- love letter necklace: free from Coquette (seen on Free*Style)
- pink tartan panties and bra from Lapointe
- skin: based on Another Shop free open source Lf0 skin and sold 50L for Unicef. Check all the donated skins here and you can get yourself a few ones there.
And last but not least my eyes are (were?) also freebies, from Callie Cline group (seen on FreeStyle) and my shape cost me 1L$ too (Eve by Style Your Destiny, seen on Fabfree)...
So well, not many Lindens but stylish enough... Free but not cheap.
Writing this article I realize how much work it is for these ladies of Free*Style and Fabfree to grab and write articles that save me so much energy... Thank you veryyyy much girls !!!
