PPQ New Collection

Two new floors were added yesterday on PPQ. This collection has mostly black dresses with a few colored pieces. It's inspired by the Autumn/Winter 2013 Collection. The prices range from 8 to 32 stardollars.

I was really impressed by the accessories. I mean, can we take a minute to admire how extremely beautiful is the "PPQ Gaucho Hat" (10 stardollars)?

The "PPQ Long Earrings" (5 stardollars) and the "Tangerine Chiffon Scarf" (8 stardollars) were my other purchases.

As for the clothes, I was not thrilled. I like the "Marabu Peplum Top" (20 stardollars) and the top of the "PPQ Peplum Gown" (26 stardollars). I wish the gown was two pieces so I could buy the top part..

Here is the the whole collection :

I spotted two dolls wearing some of the new items. BelleJolie used the "PPQ Gaucho Hat" and the "Velvet Keyhole Jumpsuit" (28 stardollars) in a vintage inspired outfit. She looks like she came right out of a classic movie.  Flor_14 wore the hat and the "PPQ Court Shoes" in a total black, very chic outfit. These shoes are very difficult to style but she incorporate them very well in her outfit.

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 :
