It Girls New Collection

I'm wearing : Deep V Wrap Dress, It Girls | Steel Taffeta Dress, It Girls | Traveller Boots, Nelly | Lady D Bag, It Girls | For the hat : Folk Hat, Evil Panda * and Diamond Rivets Hat, LE | Rihanna CFDA Headband, Young Hollywood ||

A new It Girls collection just dropped today, with lots of earthy, fall colors and a 70's feel. There are some seriously georgeous pieces, with my favourite beeing the "Lady D Bag". The graphics, the color, the details, everything is perfect. Maybe the size is a bit off, but that can be easily changed. On the other hand the "Deep V Wrap Dress" looks a little flat, but I totally overlooked that, because the moment I saw it I could already tell that it's a piece I could style in so many different ways. With a buttoned up and a bow tie, a turtleneck, a transparent top, or on its own. My last pick was the "Steel Taffeta Dress" with the very interesting sleeves and neckline and the graphic which resembles some of the older, vintage Stardoll pieces. I'm on the fence about the "Ivory Faux Fur Coat". It fits beautifully on the doll, but the quality is suprisingly low. It looks like a stardesign hair piece and if you look it up-close you can spot many flaws, like the rough edges and the wierd shadows.

How to Style : Mixed Prints

I don't feel like there is a wrong way to mix prints. If you decide to wear two different patterns just go for it and enjoy it! Be daring and have fun with it, that's what is all about. Or you can be more discreet and like me go for the more toned down prints.

Pretty n' Love New Collection

I'm wearing : Linen Shawl, Pretty n' Love | Off Shoulder Heavy Knit, Nelly | Black Cigarette Pants, Windows on the World | Quilted Backpack, Nelly | Leather Satchel, Callie's Picks/Versus Tribute | Iris Shoes, Nelly | Color Block Fedora, Nelly ||

I have this awful feeling that I will never wear any of the stuff I bought from this collection. Nevertheless I had to make a post... My favourite piece and probably the one I'll wear at some point is the "Linen Shawl". It's that kind of item that adds a touch of reality to a pixelated outfit. I adore the texture of the "Velvet Babydoll Dress" and it can look great in a vintage inspired outfit. The two pair of pants, the "Ombre Jeans" and the "Tulip Vine Jeans", are cute but nothing special and for that price I should have thought twice before getting them. Last but not least, the "Peachy Platform Boots", are useful and can work well in any outfit, I just wish the socks weren't there.
P.S. Half of my outfit is from Nelly, and I don't even like this store :P

JetSet New Store | VIP Access

I'm wearing : White Fall Sweater, JetSet | Tartan Maxi Shirt, JetSet | Slimane Leather Pants, Saint Laurent Paris | Off Shoulder Heavy Knit, Nelly | Minimalist Alexander Heels, Bonjour Bisou | Stacy Cap * | Dior Tribute Diva Veil, Special Offer ||

A new superstars/royalty only shop has arrived today. Before I start my review I have to say that the name of the store just doesn't feel right, there is something in this term that bugs me. Plus it doesn't say anything about the identity of the store (which is not very clear yet) , it only emphasizes the exclusivity of it.
The store offers fashion and decor items. Generally I don't care for interior releases, since I don't buy decor items unless I'm making a new room (which rarely happens), but this time I made an exception and got a few of the "Ceiling Hangers". It's a great way to display clothes, minimal and modern.
Overall I got plenty of clothes and accessories. The quality of the graphics is very good, in the majority of the items, just take a look at the "Red Patent Leather Handbag". I was also impressed with the "Rock n Roll Skirt". Stardoll isn't really good at making fringe, but this one is spectacular. The movement and assymetry makes it look realistic. My favourite part of the collection is the "Tartan Maxi Shirt". It's an interesting silhouette, one we don't see often on Stardoll and the transparency offers many styling options. Then there is this amazing slouchy sweater, the "White Fall Sweater" which I can't resist. I love the rolled up sleeves, the cozy turtleneck and the texture. The "Rock n Roll Bag" barely made it to my shopping cart, since the gold details are ruining  it for me, but the overall design was quite interesting so I decided to give it a try. As for the "Golden Chocker", I do love chockers, especially those priced in starcoins, so it was an instant buy. And of course I couldn't left the store without at least one impulse purchase, the "Styled Leather Jacket". I have a soft spot for thrown over the shoulders jackets so I bought it immediately, but on further thought the price is very high and the fit is awkard.
