Free for YOU!

If you read my last post, you know about some of the wonderful things we have been doing recently on Rich Idiot Island. It's a beautiful sim with lots of places to explore.


Now I want you to come visit, so I've decided to make you a no-strings-attached offer .... you come visit my shop, and I'll give you a stunning yellow sun dress. FREE. All you have to do is walk in and look for this sign.


Isn't it cute? Yellow is such an eye-catching color. I made the top of this dress as an undershirt, so you can wear a sweater or something over it if you want to, and then "change" without needing to trade one top for another. The dress comes with the matching scarf you see in this photo. It's a complete outfit!


As the sign says, your dress is on a hanger. All you have to do is click.

You may want to pick up couple of other free items too. One is a collection of scarves, like the one in the photo above, all textured to match clothing in the shop. If you already own one of my dresses, you may find an accent scarf that goes with it. Or (hint, hint) you might find a new dress to go with one of these scarves ... you never know. ;-)


The other free item is a "toolkit" to help you make those delicate adjustments that are often necessary when you wear a new piece of prim clothing for the first time. I remember getting SO frustrated when I was a newbie and couldn't get a skirt to sit properly at my waistline. If that's you too, take a toolkit. It contains a pose stand and an attractive privacy screen, and advice about how to make those adjustments. Give a toolkit to a friend, too. She'll thank you.


Why am I doing all of this? I know, I'm a nice person. Aside from that, though, profits from my Rich Idiot shop and from Rug Rats and the bookstore (A Good Book) go to support the libraries and educational work of the Alliance Library System in SL. So every time you buy something, you are helping to maintain the ALS sims. I think that's a pretty worthy cause.


So pick up the freebies and have fun. I hope you'll find something else to add to your wardrobe while you're here, too. Take some time to browse through the dresses and separates. I've tried to arrange the shop so you know where to look for casual things and where to find dressier clothing, with a few surprises thrown in for good measure -- like the bathing suits I added earlier this season.


I also hope you bring a friend and just wander on the island. In addition to other great shops, there's The Distillery club and Gatsby's supper club. There are loads of other fascinating places to wander into as well, and quirky little surprises to discover wherever you look. And if you just want to chill out and relax, go sit on the beach and dabble your toes in the water.


Just in case you have misplaced the LM for my shop, here it is again: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Rich%20Idiot/144/122/35 .


I hope to see you soon.
