The Fallen Angel new pieces were released last Wednesday. There is not something eye catching in this collection. The "Tulle Skirt w Leggings" would have been interesting without the leggings, but with them it's not very versatile. My picks are the "Extreme Spike Choker" and the "Orchid Tulle Dress".The bottom part of the dress reminds me a lot of the skirt from the Street Style Young Hollywood collection and that is why I bought it in the first place. I later realised how difficult it is to style it without looking like a goth princess :)

The Callie's Picks Issue No. 19 was released on Friday the 4th of July and the theme was "Stars and Stripes" in honor of the celebration of the Independence Day. From the outfits I have seen around Stardoll it seems that the hit of the collection was the "Slashed Knee Jeans" originally from ELLE. I'm still debating over buying them or not! I don't usually wear jeans but I have seen dolls who created great outfits with them... My picks are the "Blue White Shoes", the "Draped Peplum Top" and the "Yankee Doodle Scarf". The shoes with the bright blue color and the pointy toe can work well in any outfit and for 6 stardollars they are a very good deal!
(I know I'm terribly late, but either way I wanted to post about these new collections.)

Curlfriend : Featured Hair Designers

Since the new stardesign hair pieces were released a couple of days ago, I've been peeking into beauty parlors all around Stardoll and I have spotted some amazing creations! It seems that the curlfriend hair set is a very helpful tool and has sparked the creativity of the designers. In the picture below you can see only some of my favourite that I've came accross so far, from the voluminous curls to the blonde mane or the short cut!

Have you spotted any great curlfriend desing or made your own? Share them with us :)

Dior Couture Tribute

This Monday a new tribute was released and this time it was Dior! The collection is a pleasure to the eyes, great quality, cohesion and stand out pieces. It reminds me of the old times tributes with the beautiful, statement clothes and not the casual wear the recent tributes are consisted of.

The prices are okay in general, some items are more on the expensive side like the "White Rose Embroidered Skirt" (38 stardollars), but overall it's a good deal for a high quality collection. There is a dress (Dior Silk Couture Dress, 65 stardollars) available only for superstars (second floor, dress on the middle).

Tribute accessories are always on my wishlist, and the shoes on this collection is a must have! I'm also a sucker for high waisted cropped pants and so the two pairs were an immediate purchase. As for the statement piece of the collection, the "Couture Layered Dress", even though it's pink, it stands out for its unique and original design.

Clothes : Dior Couture Black Trousers, Dior Couture Plum Trousers, Couture Layered Dress | Accessories : Peach Satin Bow, Plum Pearls Necklace | Shoes : White Couture Heels, Plum Couture Heels, Black Dior Heels *** I'm wearing : White Rose Embroidered Skirt, Dior Couture | White Rose Couture Top, Dior Couture | Snow Sleeve Jacket, Decades | Blush Dior Heels, Dior Couture | Several Plum and Blush Pearls Necklaces | Left and Right Chain Shoulder Pad, Archive | Joanne Royalty Precious Armour Necklace, Royalty | Chanel Inspired Necklace designed by me | Hair designed by dissolvedgirl

Lately on Stardoll : Fendi Tribute, It Girls, Windows on the World and Curlfriend

Hey there, I'm back from an unexpected trip near the sea and away from my laptop! You can see a few snapshots I uploaded on my instagram here. It was a relaxing and pleasant week, exactly what I needed in this summer heat :) Speaking of which, there are only 9 days left for the thermometer to fill up, and it seems that it's moving very slowly. I'm worried that it won't reach the last bonus...

Except the thermometer, a lot more have happened during my absence. I'll try to sum them up in this post.

We got three store releases, It Girls, Windows on the World and the Fendi Tribute. 

The It Girls collection was my favourite of the three. A great collection with many interesting pieces, but I was mostly eager to try on the "Crossover Cardigan" and the "Olive Stockholm Jacket". I ended up buying a lot more. I was pleasantly surprised with the Linen Boater Top and Trousers, because I find stripy clothes difficult to style but these two seem to be very versatile! The "Striped Boater Bikini" and the "Rhinestone Tiara Headpiece" (not pictured below) were my last two picks.

The Fendi Tribute on the other hand dissapointed me. The prices weren't exactly appealing and that totally put me off from buying some items I have spotted on the spoilers. I invested on the "Nude Monster Wallet" thinking I could resize it and wear it as a clutch, which I did in the picture below. My other two picks are basic pieces that I know I'll wear them a lot, the "Black Fendi Belt" and the "Nude Gold Heels"

There's not much to say for the Windows on the World collection. The clothes are not my style, they are too dressy for my liking so I only got the "Black Cigarette Pants" because you can't never go wrong with a pair o black trousers :)

The last thing that happened this week and the most awaited was the Curlfriend stardesing pieces. The quality of the new pieces is so much better than the older ones, and it makes it much easier. even for a begginer, to create a wig. Plus the final results will cost you less since you won't need to use many extra pieces to create shadings. I hope they'll soon take into consideration the request of many members for more wig spots. Anyway, I can't wait to see what everyone will create, I didn't have the time to look around buut I bet there is a lot of awesomeness on the hair bazaar at the moment :p
