The "it" bag? Nah, thanks!

This is the new "it" bag by Stardoll, named "Missmej" in honour of some random user. Who cares? I know about the "Sienna", the "Kate" and the "Birkin". When Stardoll picks a random user with a silly kids name, it really doesn't sound as good.
Besides, it's fugly!

Oops!

Sorry about the lack of posts this week, I guess I needed to tell everyone that I'm back at school now (last year, then Uni, WHOO!) and have just super crazy busy. I've also been working all day.

So, what I eman to say is I probably won't be able to update the site quite as often as before when I was on Summer hols, but I still will try my best!

Thanks,

xx

You're catwalking, babay!

Wow, another new feature of Stardoll! They just keep churning them out!

This new "catwalk" feature allows Superstars (who else, right?) to vote for your favourite fashions of three users, once you have saved an outfit in your album. Clever, huh? Anywhoo, most people's outfits just involve clothes lying across the screen, so it doens't always work as well, but I managed to get quite a good screenshot.

teenStyle Issue 2: Sept/Oct 08

Well, it's out in all it's four- page glory. And as much as I couldnt' really stand Style, and the first issue of teenStyle was kind of an anti- climax, this one looks very promising, firstly because of the CoverGirl! It's writemarycat of Eternity Magazine, Mary Walkerson!

And it's all so pretty! Okay, we've still got that whole threesome of Kaya, Selena and Style there, but, oh! Pretty! I LOVELOVELOVE this cover! And I want that necklace!

I cna't wait to read the article written by Selena about Halloween fashion, British style. Maybe dressed as the Queen, or someone else British? Amy Winehouse? Victoria Beckham?

We'll have to wait and see!

And for the best/ worst- dressed lists, see my new fashion blog, It's Stardoll Style!

teenStyle/ Issue 2, launch party!


So, teenStyle's launch party is in about half an hour, and I've prepared my outfit. The theme is a supposed "teen royalty" so I've chosen something quirky, but fun and colourful. Speaking of teen royalty, I bought Sophia Coppola's Marie Antoinette on DVD the other day. It's really good, full of 80s punk rock songs and amazing costumes! Anywhere, here's my outfit:


Cute, pscyhadelic mini- dress, very pucci- esque methinks! Coloured tights (winterberry!) and chunky black platforms, DKNY. Love-er-ly! Oh, and a freakin' awesome black bangle as an arm- cuff!

Take that!

I've got my free t- shirt!
Have you??!!

Seeing Double

Many people have noticed the new theme in the Starplaza... recurring items!
It's equally annoying when most of the items aren't that nice to begin with!



All of these items have been previously out. That also means they've been in a sale, and in StarBazaar, so the chances are, lots of people have either paid alot more for these items, or alot less. I think it's annoying that Stardoll re- introduce clothes, especially hideous ones like these.

The only item I like is the navy/ grey coat with the gold detail, which is purdy. The rest looks like something a drunk zookeeper would wear!

Magazine- licious

It's that time of the month again- no, not that one! But all the magazines are set to soon be released again, however, Eternity has seen an early debut for their September issue, as the Editor- in- chief, writemarycat, will have problems with her internet connection soon (?) so this will be the last issue for quite some time, although kudos to Mary and her team for managing to complete this stellar issue in record time!

pretty!
As you can see, in terms of graphics, Eternity magazine has seen a huge improvement in the last few months, so much so that they're looking to overtake Style in terms of popularity. I for one, much prefer Eternity because they actual communicate with the readers as opposed to icily ignoring them!

Done! and dusted: a magazine worth reading!

So many of the Stardoll magazines are generic, un- original and spoute fashion nonsense, so it's refreshing when I see magazines I actually like. S4A Magazine is one of my favourites, and I found Done! magazine, written by Steelone through the lovely girls at Stardoll Fashion Forward.




Steelone herself admits that she has had lots of positive comments following the Done! August issue, and I can see why. At first soem of the images were a bit iffy but you can see the drastic improvements, and the September issue of Done! could easily rival more well- known ones such as Eternity, which is okay but kind of eh.

Gemma_W wouldn't be my first choice for CoverGirl but I can see her appeal to an extent, she seems friendly enough, if a bit icy, but that cover- WOW! She looks gorgeous, and her eyes looks exactly the same, big, pear- shaped almond eyes. Pretty!

Banned?!

For some reason I have been banned from the MonthlyGiftClub! Reasons escape me as to why, perhaps something I wrote there came out wrong and was misinterpreted, but as far as I am aware I have done nothing wrong. Sure, lots of people had made silly, disgusting or otherwise sick discussions and g/b messages, but I was never one of them, and neither are most people, it was just a small minority who abused the boards and felt the need the share disgusting lies.







Has anyone else had this happen to them?? If you've been banned, tell me!!!

BeverlyHillsHei - Bye Bye!

Oh- the rumours are getting bigger and the claws are out, and fakeshake3 is not even involved.

Practically everyone has heard the Daily*Tabloid/ LaPrimaDonna/ BeverlyHillsHei scandal that's currently circulating the net. It first appeard on The Daily Tabloid, with LaPrimaDonna claiming that Daily*Tabloid and BeverlyHillsHei were the same person, and although I cannot stand any of these three, she made a valid point and had a good argument.

Of course, she was then fired.

She'd claimed to be trying to reclaim Daily*Tabloid's once stelar reputation, although it's not nothing but mud in the ground with their constant staff changes and silly rumours.

BeverlyHillsHei has already denied her part in this on her blog, claiming that she is friends with D*T but cannot stand LaPrimaDonna. What I don't understand is why she is sending giftcodes to D*T. Why, when D*T used to slam her to the ground on the blog, however now she is defending her?

Everyone knows BeverlyHillsHei is a liar, her presentation practically screams it, and anyone who believes her silly lies is more delusional than they realised.

What do you think? Are they the same people?

I think Daily*Tabloid and BeverlyHillsHei could be the same person: they're both sad- assed pretentious liars who want people to worship them.

Would you? Could you?

I've tried a little experiment right now where I've got practically my only HotBuy and put it up for sale. Hotbuys have never really interested me as I prefer to just buy the clothes I like, and now sell them when I change my mind, but I bought these forever ago, maybe over a year. I've loved them as if they were my own but I've bought new shoes since then, and to be honest, don't really wear them much. And because I'm not interested in so- called "collector's items" I thought I'd put them up for sale.

So... I put them up for 30 sd.






Extortionate? Er... yes. But it's just an experimeant really, I'm not actually expecting anyone to buy them. Of course, if they do I'll be happy I've made 30sd, but to be honest, I'll also feel sorry for that person that spends that much. Although, if you have most other HotBuys I guess you might want the whole set.

Well, if you want them you know where to find them! I'll keep you posted :)

Ch-Ch-Changes

Too many changes... that is one thing I don't like! First Stardoll changed the layout of all the "Stardoll's" to "Dolls & Games". It's been Dolls or Stardolls for as long as I can remember!

Why ruin something that was fine to begin with by changing it?

Well, now they have changed The Show into Stardoll magazine. And what a pile of crap it is!



It's dull colours, dull content and looks like one of the many amatuer Stardoll- themed magazine currently doing the rounds on cyberspace. It's really, really bad. Honest.

The only good thing about this is the Covergirl, who is quite pretty, although she admittedly looks worse now I'm studying the picture again. Whatever- my point is that after a few years online, is this the best user- friendly magazine Stardoll could create? The content is just automatic feed from another gossip website. Why can't they do something themselves???

Starbazaar confuzzlement!

I was flicking through StarBazaar trying to find soem bargains or see if there were any lottery dresses about (no!), and realised that it was the same few items being re- shown constantly:




Why so many tights???!!!

1) I already have these- Starbazaar, 2sd. Why so many for sale?
2) Why so many free bags for sale? The fact that every SuperStar has one sorta indicates they're not going to buy another- you can't anyway!
3) That hideous Lily Allen pale/ dusty rose pink top is there, and has appeared a million more times.
4) And the stupid "10 million members" tops for sale for 2sd. I'm selling mine for 1sd :)

So yeah, I'm pretty peeved. Normally StarBazaar is clogged up with lot of crap from StarDesign!

Where's that when you want it?

Schzaaim!

Wow, yet again, another new Masthead for the Blog. And still a pretty poor effort on my part. I tried my best but my Polyvore skills are very limited.

What do you think of the Masthead? Do you like or dislike it?????

And if you're a whiz at arty- farty computer stuff, contact me please, because I need your help!

Desperately Seeking,

*exes and infinite oh's*

Check this out bizatches!

I was just flitting through thhe world of cyberspace and Stardoll blogs in general when I came across another one. There seem to be so many lately, myself included, and it will be interestign to see how long most people carry on before they get bored or lose interest, but for the moment at least, it's very popular. All are good and fun to read, but a few have a special something that makes me keep going back. I discovered The Stardoll Chronicles through Linda at The Star Dose on her Links section.

All the Stardoll blogs are beginning to slowly blend into one, and I feel too, guilty of this because there are about a million of us out there. But I felt blonde_bum101 deserved a special mention so here it is:

YOUR BLOG IS FREAKIN' AWESOME :)

Much love !

Member worth a mention- Suite of the Week! 24/08

I need to get into doing this Suite of the Week business, well, weekly. I've just seen so many awesome suites lately it's hard to pick a favourite!

Well, I managed in the end!



Barb_A is kind of refreshingly normal, which is nice to see on Stardoll!

Anyway, I was totally psyched to see she had an actual wedding chapel in her Suite... like, wow! I know lots of users are managing to build things in their suite now, but this is really cool and totally inspiring!



Also, alot of users are using perspective in their rooms, creating bigger spaces by making objects smaller. This is really creative on their part, as seen above. I hope to feature more users who have done this, as it looks really good!

If you, or someone you know would like to be nominated for Suite of the Week, let me know, you can e-mail The Stardoll Reality here.
