Free Summer.

Wassup y'all. It's been a minute, eh? Just dropping in to show you a nearly-free look (everything except the Ikon eyes + the $30L gatcha necklace; more on that below), styled with some recent free cuties yours for the taking, courtesy of recent hunts (fair warning: some are ending very soon!) + 1 of SL's most iconic events, Hair Fair 2013 (hopefully y'all have been catching our own Eden Knoller's excellent coverage of it here on Free*Style). 
Free Summer. If you've been reading Eden's posts, you'll already know that the driving point behind Hair Fair 2013 is to actually spend your $L to assist the well-worthy charity this event is helping, Wigs for Kids (i.e., freebies aren't really the point). That being said, some designers have generously donated some notably nice things for the event, some of which were used to style my casual look today: a free 2-tone hair gift by Due, some free texture-change chandelier earrings + a free slouchy tank by AUX; I styled this all matchy-matchy with a  free owl shoulder bag that you can grab at a lucky boards tote bags bonanza, offering a total of 5 free bags in all. (Btw the Clawtooth Hair Fair 2013 dollarbie here is also very much worth grabbing, easily 1 of the cutest gifts at the event; buy the little brown paper bag on the dresser for $1L).

A word about this skin: if you don't already know the Essences store, skinner Inka Mexicola's skins are on my personal go-to list for her knowing, intelligentsia faces that exude a certain je ne sais quoi. This extremely pretty skin I'm wearing here is yours for free if you simply click the Essences subscribo (note the heavy eyeliner-pen makeup)! I paired this look with some free mesh lashes, a free ghettofab "Gamer" necklace, some free pink lemonade (I grabbed mine at Food Fair 2013, which kicks off today) + a supercasual free summery flip-flops standing pose prop. -- I'm also obsessed with this anime dollfaced cell phone lariat necklace that I scoopied for $30L at The Chapter Four (NOTE: the July round ends today; don't miss the exquisitely modern, wood & glass "Rare" gatcha home by Ionic for a crazy $85L price).

Hope everyone's enjoying some cold, slushy drinks, quality time with the waves + these long, lazie days. Free Summer love + fashionista kisses to all!
