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!

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!

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?

Wham Bam, Thankyou Tam: Part II

And with all the fanfare Stardoll can muster the new Vivienne Tam items have arrived. Of course while the Elites clambour over their Christian Louboutins to buy the whole stock, let us non- Supertstar gaze in wonderment at these fine creations:



Aah, yes! My personal favourite. The shoes I could easily give or take but the dress- Oh! Lovely, shiny, flowery and oh so pretty!



Yay! Well, here's the first page at least. The rest are not really as good, and all my favourites are here! The pruple, the pin, the blue... Mmm I especially love the cinch in the waist of the blue dress. Why it's call "Jade Macrame" I cannot tell, because unless my eyes decieve me that macrame is very much red.

The disappointments? The hideous nylon black dress, I can only say 'ew'. And the gold dress has come straight out of Star Wars, shoulder pads and all. If there's one thing I detest, except maybe exams, war, smoking, the usual, it is shoulder pads!
What are you favourites/ most hated items????!!!!

Roiworld Fun-ness!

I discovered the Korean website Roiworld a couple of years ago through dressupgames.com, a website that basically just has, well, Dress Up Games. This was the same website where I discovered Stardoll, although back then it was "Paper Doll Heaven" and there were no MeDolls, no StarPlaza and basically you just dressed up dolls. I miss the good old days...

Anyway, I go on Roiworld every couple of days when they have updates and since going on there the quality of dolls has improved vastly. The clothes are more quirky and unique, alot more of my style than alot of what Stardoll has to offer:






Ta- Da! Love-er-ly! I want the black blazer!

Oh, and this sort of relates to the blog because who can forget about the whole Roiworld/ I-dressup Style Magazine thing. I went on i- dressup a couple of years ago when it first started as well, but there's too many pop-ups and the quality isn't as good!

SALE NOW ON!

There is a sale currently on in StarPlaza, with 50% reduced off many items. I found the best places to look were Pretty in Pink and the Stardoll shop. I bought a lovely black pencil skirt and a green blouse as seen on the Bethany Joy Galeotti doll!

What bargains will you be getting?

I heart Candies!

Snaps for the Hayden Panettiere for Candie's range. I actually like Hayden Panettiere! And the clothes are actually wearable and you can mix them up, as opposed to the "Abbey Dawn" Avril Lavinge line for Kohl's.

I so so so want the yellow and brown plaid mini! It reminds me of Cher's outfit in Clueless, which I love! It's also good because it's for non- superstars [i.e ME!] so everyone can enjoy the clothes! They're evn better than the newest line of DKNY clothes!

Best/ Worst Dressed @ teenStyle grand opening

There was plenty going on at the launch of teenStyle last night, the actual magazine not being one of them. Anywhoo, the fashions ranged from cute and pretty to bizarre and fugly. Here's my favourites... and least favourites.

BEST DRESSED:

Style_Magazine, hannah-denise (me!), model-selena

Style was wearing her signature monochrome and wasn't even really sticking to her own "teen flair" dress... but I still loved what she wore, which is saying something because usually she looks pretty hideous in her boring suits and silly ballgowns. Still- I wish she would sort her make-up out! The lipstick is awful!

Then there's yours truly in my grecian- inspired number doing what little I can with my small and limited wardrobe. I think I looked pretty good!

I really liked model-selena's outfit as well. The nude- beige dress is bang-on trend, and my only concern is the fact that she looks almost gift-wrapped and like a little parcel with the bow, but I let that pass. Shame about the birds nest on her head too...

RISKS THAT PAID OFF:

Britneys07, springate, chicago3

Britneys07 was certainly the belle of last night's ball and everyone was in awe at her stunning and unusual choice. Going for a "moulin- rouge" theme, I certainly think she looks divine, and I love the off- shoulder detail on her dress!

springate arrived fashionably late [although still not as late as the actual mag... well, front cover] and was sporting about 10 LBD's on top of one another. Did he pull it off? I think so, although the feather boa? Slightly trannylicious... but this is springate after all!

I wasn't convinced when I first saw chicago3's outfit. She was certainly begging people to take a look, but... yeah. It has grown on me, although I can't stand the little pink and grey bustier that's peeking out of the top.

RISKS THAT DIDN'T PAY OFF:

Kahlen08Heiress, Allison.Heart

Oh, Kahlen, Why? You are not a pirate! Sure, I love the trousers, and even the puffy- sleeved voluminous blouse. But the pirate vest? Why must you do that to yourself?!?! And don't get me started on the make-up and hair! Can you say hot mess...?

Allison.Heart has a good idea with the red Rose McGowan dress but she just can't pull it off. The clutch looks to informal with the dress... and underneath! Brown clunky platforms! Why!!!????

ideal outfit, non?

Was bored on StarPlaza so mused together a few items that I was coveting:

Very Kate Moss - esque, I think. I love the little khaki playsuit and am currently IN LOVE with gladiator sandals! I could have worn this on T4 On the Beach!
