Antidote New Collection : Moschino

** I'm still here! From now on I promise I will have more time to be here :) **
So about the Antidote collection....Hmmm...Antidote has a very specific aesthetic, and this collection is just not there. The whole thing screams LE to me. Sparkles, gold and chains, it's the same Stardoll recipe over and over again. Worst piece of all? The "Sequin Sports Trousers" with the underwear showing off. Best part was the interior, but not when you are on a tight budget. Of course there is a lot of talent around Stardoll and it's no surprise that some medolls managed to make outstanding outfits with these pieces.

My Style : Covered Up

At last, Autumn has arrived in my country and I can't be more happy about that! I can finally enjoy the small joys of cold weather, drinking hot tea, wearing cardigans and walk everywhere without sweating :P I was so happy that I changed my doll's outfit, something I haven't done in the last three weeks... I got to wear a few things that I bought from the latest releases, such as the "Velvet Laces Boots" from the MSW'14 store (review here) and the "Tres En Vogue Sweatshirt" from Nelly (review here). I'm also wearing the "Siri Bag" from the second part of Nelly. I haven't written a review yet for the new floor and I'll probably won't, since it wasn't very impressive compared to the first part.
(I'm trying to figure out a new way to post my outfits, but I'm not there yet, so please excuse me for the massive letters...)

Callie's Picks Issue No. 25 : Reddy For Fall

I'm wearing : Floral Embroidered Jkt, Callie's Picks/Archive | Haute Ciuture Black Lace Top, Royalty | Love Fighter Jeans, Nelly | Lucite Heel Boots, Subcouture | Burgundy Shoulderbag, Callie's Picks/Givenchy | For the jean lace patch I used : Lacey Tights, Mooxie Teenz | Studded Cuff, Fallen Angel ||

(First of, let me say that Stardoll should spend more time picking names of the collections. Reddy for Fall? Really? )
As you probably already know, it's a color themed collection. I don't mind wearing red, there are some beautiful shades of it, but I don't think a total red look is the best idea, let alone fourteen of them. I would prefer to see more colors in this collection to blend with the red.
The first thing I did when I saw the collection was to add the "Floral Embroidered Jkt" on my cart and buy it in a heartbeat. Usually these kind of jackets/cardigans can look outdated or mature, but this one is such a strong piece. The style and pattern work great together, and it literally looks good with anything underneath! The "Burgundy Shoulderbag" (originally from Givenchy Tribute) is a classic bag in a classic color and I think it's a great investment. I've already owned the "Burgundy Ruffle Blouse", also from Givenchy, and the truth is that I have barely worn it once or twice. However I still think it's a great addition to a wardrobe, I just haven't figured out the right way to style it yet. As for the dresses, I have mixed feelings. The "Sheer Dress" (originally from Sonia Rykel) is without doubt a stunning dress but it's way different from what I usually wear. I only bought it because of the sleeves, I'm seriously drooling over them, soooo beautiful. I thought that I could somehow hide the dress while still showing the sleeves but it didn't work out...The same goes for the "Longoria Dress". I wish it was two separated pieces. The shine and that (hideous) belt ruins it for me, but at the same time the slit and the neckline are very feminine and flattering. I had some spare stardollars so I decided to give it a chance, I wouldn't have bought it under different circumstances.

Nelly and Original Future Haul

Yep, it's a haul! I can't believe it but I got almost half of the stuff from the new Nelly collection, and a few from Original Future. Black and white is my weakness, and there was plenty of it in the new collections. I may got a bit far with excitement and made some impulse purchases, like the "Box Sunglasses" or the "Tartan Shirt", which in second though seems a bit pricey. If I had to pick one item only, that would probably be the "Quilted Backpack". It's really refreshing to see Stardoll trying to figure out different ways of wearing bags, instead of the usual hanging down from your hand way. I also loved the "Prada Inspired Dress", which is a superstar exclusive piece. It's unique, a bit bizarre and very cute! 
I still believe that the Nelly clothes are flat graphic wise, but this time, since the pieces were interesting, I didn't give too much attention on that.
P.S. I just realised that Nelly is not expensive in real life. I might actually consider getting the Vogue sweatshirt!
My picks from Original Future : High Waisted Pleather Pants, Platform Runners *, Mesh Baseball Tunic ||
My picks from Nelly : Box Sunglasses, Kayleigh Collar Top, Wedge High Knee Boots, Off Shoulder Heavy Knit, Tartan Shirt, Love Fighter Jeans, Platform Ankle Strap Pump, Tres En Vogue Sweatshirt, Stripped Skirt, Quilted Backpack, Selene Playsuit ||
