Hello!

Hi everyone! I'm Doinker_chic (AKA Lily Rose!) Jenna has kindly allowed me to be one of the writers here. I am so happy and I can't wait to participate. I love fashion and I am really happy that I can express fashion through being a writer for this blog. Thanks!

GREAT OPTIONS

In my boredom today, I decided to hunt in starbazaar for some items I needed. While I was there, I came across something that could revolutionalize your stardoll world. Ok..well maybe it's not that big, but for some of you, this could be a great option!

Most on stardoll are constantly looking for rare items. Either you have no luck or the price is insane! Well here are 2 great alternatives. Knockoffs if you will, to help satisfy your MKA RC or LE cravings.

The first is by Blackmambayeah. She has created a "knockoff" version of the MKA RC green striped tunic and sells them for $60. Now the price may still be steep for some, but you get a taste for a fraction of the price! look how good it looks. Amazing.

The other is by Agamng. She made a "knockoff" version of the LE logo shirt. Pretty good replica. She was selling for $12, but someone is reselling for $60!!!. Kinda a ripoff considering the original sold for $75 and they didnt make it, but IDK, you'll prob pay lots more if you try to buy the real one off someone. :)
IDK if they have anymore rare designs, but if you are interested cruise on by their stardoll suites and ask. I know for some people a "knockoff" is just that...a knockoff... but what do you think? Would you buy them? xoxo Jenna

HB JACKET

The HB Tux Delux Jacket is finally in starplaza. The cost is $11sd. *Ouch* Stardoll is really hurting my pockets lately. If you haven't yet seen the real verion, take a look below. I actually think I like Stardoll's version better, but then I am a sucker for pink. xoxo Jenna

I went through and picked out my 30 must have sale items. Ofcourse there were lots more, but these are mainly the inspired or hb items to add to your collections. Enjoy! xoxo Jenna!

STYLING STUDIO COMP? WILL U DO IT?

I know I already posted about this at http://stardollscouture.blogspot.com/, but it is so awesome that i had to make sure that all my club members knew about it too!

So yay! There is a new styling studio game. You are basically creating your own dress up game. You can pick your wardrobe (for the most part) a background & save it all to stardoll for $8sd. It will be shown under the styling studio dolls and also at the bottom of your page under your best friends list. So cool!

Anyway, I'd love to make a comp, but am unsure how many would be willing to pay to make one. The prize would be a code, so if you are interested let me know here in comments or at the club! Thanks!

Here are the pics from the game I made. I tried to include any of my rares that showed, but many were not there. Visit my page to give it a try.

I'm 100% Italian,but my grandma was half american.My mum is a doctor and she's from Rome but now I live in a small city near Venice.I've grew with the influences of American Vogue and Italian fashion.Now I'm 14 and my style is varied,I space between Zara,Replay,D&G t-shirt,Louis Vuitton bags,Gucci pumps and Dior sneakers and I love to buy them in Milan or in Rome.I don't think that brands are indispensable but they have more quality than Chinese clothes!I can speak English,Italian et un peu de Francais.In the future I'd like to be a Manager in the world of fahion in NY,infact I'll study hard to fulfil my wish.I've a dream:to take the quality,the luxury and the skill of the Italian designers in all the world.
