Callie's Picks Issue No. 27 : The Immortal Kiss

My Picks : Sheer Crop Patches Blouse, Serpent And Orb Purse, Transparent Layered Top, Mercy Skirt, Party Streamer Heels, High Lace Up Boots

Yay Halloween approaches! I hope we get more Halloween stuff besides this Mortal Kiss come back. This collection is nice but not scary, creepy, costumy enough for Halloween. However there are some great, fantasy pieces and there is a reason why Mortal Kiss pieces are wanted, they are well made and unique.

P.S Read the "About the trend". It's quite entertaining!

It Girls New Collection

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.

The Stardoll blogging scene is getting bigger and bigger everyday and I can't be more happy with that. I spot so often amazing outfits, creative,stylish, fashionable and inspiring. So this new collumn will be all about that!

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
