Beauty : Natural Face

I always admired those dolls that managed to achieve a realistic face. And by that I mean dolls that look like real women, not the barbie dolls with the perfect features.

I have poor make up skills, I barely change my medoll, and I have yet to learn the art of face shadings, so I'm always impressed with what people can create with these tools.

Recently, I have spotted two dolls with this look, millaxx and Natali_226. The shadings are on the right places and the make up is just the right amount .

Lately on Stardoll : Bonjour Bisou & Nelly

We had two new collections this week. The first one was from Bonjour Bisou. The prices range from 8 to 19 stardollars and there are two starcoins iems,that cost 85 and 106 starcoins.You can find some very pretty clothes in this collection. I was immediatelly drawn to the "Printed Sweater", the "Candy Little Sweater" (such a divine color) and the "White Floral Dress".

The second collection was from Nelly. Two new floors were added and the prices range from 4 to 26 stardollars. Quite honestly, I wasn't impressed by this collection. It seems a bit rushed and poorly made.And my favourite item, the "Oggy Shoes" don't fit well. Except those shoes, my picks are the "Cara Sweater" for 22 stardollars and the "Static Metal Belt" for 6 stardollars.

P.S.What do you think of the gift-o-meter/300 million celebration?

Young Hollywood Oscars 2014 Collection

A new Young Hollywood collection inspired by the Oscars was released today. Stardoll gaves us two gowns and a suit, priced from 38 to 130 stardollars.

The real versions of the dresses were from Prada and Atelier Versace and were worn by Lupita Nyong'o (who quickly became a style icon) and Kate Hudson. The suit was Givenchy and it was worn by Michael B. Jordan. The gowns were beautiful and Stardoll did a great job recreating them in just a few hours. However they are supossed to be worn without a bra and the bra on the medoll ruins the aesthetic of the dresses. I wish we had an option to remove the bras from medolls since there are many clothes with deep v that we can't wear properly.

Here are the real life versions of them :

Callie's Picks Issue No.10 : Belle Of The Ball

The new collection of Callie's Picks was released yesterday. The theme was "Belle of the Ball" and it's Carnival inspired. The store has nine different costumes (one of each is for guys) and the prices range from 4 to 22 stardollars and from 52 to 84 starcoins. 

Even though there are not many items in starcoins, the stardollar items are quite reasonably priced. Stardoll seems to heard the members complains and started selling the pieces in their original prices.

I liked quite a few pieces from this collection. My picks are :

-The "Beaded Dress Inspired By McQueen", 22 stardollars : It's beautiful and it's inspired by Alexander McQueen, need I say more?

-The "Black No Heel Shoe Tights", 13 stardollars : I already had them (from Windows on the World) and I'm wearing them quite often. It's one of my favourite piece of clothing in my wardrobe.

-The "Embroidered Bell Sleeve Coat", 16 stardollars :  I had this one too, it's was from Tingeling. I like the kimono sleeves and the graphics.

-The "Forest Fairy Hair", 6 stardollars : I liked the pastel, faded color of this one and for 6 stardollars it's quite a bargain. 

-The "Metal Onesie", 11 stardollars : Yeah, I 'm wierd and I like this.
