Little help needed

Hello, everyone :)

First, I'd like to thank all of you who already entered at least one of my competitions this past month (last one is still open, click HERE for more info). Thank you :)

Second, I will need some help judging these comps. I know I asked you in my original "Question" post, who will be prepared to help me out with it, but as it turned out, it's a bit of a task sifting through all those comments to find willing judges.

So I'm asking again: Who is willing to help me judge these five competitions? If you would like to help, please leave a comment in my guestbook on Stardoll HERE.

Thank you and happy new year!

UPDATE: Things got sorted a bit differently thanks to two lovely ladies in the comments that reminded me of SMWSTAFF club. If you are member of said club on Stardoll, there are currently 4 discussions open for judging first four December competitions.

Happy Birthday LoveFotinh

This Grecian darling has an intriguing and unique sense of style, and is currently participating in my club's 3rd cycle. 

This is her latest task submission:

Bygone, bygone year ... COMP

Can you believe that this month and with it this year are almost over? 
It's been a week, so it is time for the fifth and last December competition hosted by me.

The theme for this one proved to be rather elusive. But in the end I got it while I was browsing through StarBazzar earlier today.

You are invited to a New Year's party. The host is know for throwing great themed party every year. To find out more about the dress code, read the "invitation" below. If there are still some questions you can ask them in the comments or in my GB.

RULES:

- Create a glamorous party look inspired by a bygone era - said era could be the 80's, 50's, 20's, Victorian era, medieval times or even stone age if that's what inspires you, but the 80's are the youngest it can be. It can be created in your suite OR plaza OR scenery OR using someone else's doll (in this case, write the username of the person whose doll you are using). As usual, my doll is at your full disposal ;)
- Post your look in the comments below WITH YOUR USERNAME and the era (not a must, but it would be nice)
- Competition closes on Friday, January 5th 2018 at 23:59 CET, click HERE to see what does that mean for you :)

Good luck!

NOTE:
All five winners will be announced AFTER this one closes. Each person can win only once (don't worry you can enter all of them).
Each winner will get 200 SD OR 4 weeks of Superstar membership

New PopShop

As per usual, we got new items in PopShop right before the new year.

We got one floor of new items, with prices ranging from 5 to 18 stardollars and with two starcoins items (floating lantern and 2018 balloons).

As you can see, most of the items are Chinese inspired. Stardoll was super lazy this year - they used old interior, last year's table plus there's this gem of a message we got:

(looks like someone forgot about their homework)

What are your thoughts? Will you buy anything? Let us know in the comments below.

Dior Tribute Released!

Stardoll released the 3rd Tribute for Holidays season and it's Inspired by Dior.

 There are 2 floors and prices range between 12 and 38 sd. 

What do you think of this collection? Are you buying anything?

Christmas Market fun!

Hi guys, how was your Christmas? I hope all of you ate themselves full and had relaxing days! Technically, I wanted to do this before Christmas but I simply didn't had the time so I'm doing this now (:

Every year my mom and I used to collect items we didn't used anymore: clothes, toys etc and gave it to the local hospital throught the Red Cross. So I decided to bring this tradition here and make it a little 'stardoll-ish'

Welcome to my thrift shop

These are my Stardollar items I no longer use:

And these are my Starcoin items I no longer need:

If you want a closer look, you can find them on the LOWER floor of my Loft/penthouse.

So the rules are:

- This is for ACTIVE members only

- Because of timezones, the Thrif shop will be open till Friday (Dec 29.) 16:00 CET.

- Write in the comments what item/s you would like. Please only choose the items you REALLY want and will use it. If someone already picked the ones you want, you can outbid them. All bids start with 1 sd/1 sc(aka the minimum). 

- Starcoin items will be sold ONLY for starcoins and stardollar items for stardollars. No exceptions. Respect the rules.

Have fun!!!

JANUARY HOTBUYS

As you may have noticed (or not), Stardoll released January Hotbuys post. Thanks Alyaj4 for bringing it to my attention.

It's all very summery and ready for vacationing on a beach somewhere warm. As I live in Europe, I have a bit of a hard time "feeling" this.

On the first glance I like the swimsuit and the earrings. What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments below.

Christmas Undercover

It's the last weekend before Christmas. Are you excited? How are you going to spend Christmas Eve/Christmas day?

At first I wanted you to create red, green and white look for this one, but I liked one of the suggestions on my "Question" post better (I can't remember who was it and can't find that comment now). Thank you a lot for your help :)

This means that you have the entire colour palette minus those three colours to play with ;)

RULES:

- Create a glamorous festive look WITHOUT using colours GREEN, RED and WHITE - it can be created in your suite OR plaza OR scenery OR using someone else's doll (in this case, write the username of the person whose doll you are using)
- Post your look in the comments below WITH YOUR USERNAME
- Competition closes on Friday, December 29th at 23:59 CET, click HERE to see what does that mean for you :)

NOTE:
All five winners will be announced AFTER the last one (in January). Each person can win only once (don't worry you can enter all of them).
Each winner will get 200 SD OR 4 weeks of Superstar membership

Weekend OOTD winners and NEXT theme!

I'm a woman of my word, so here are the winners of last weekend themed OOTD:

I used the random name picker

and 

They both win a wishlist item worth of 25 sd.

Please claim your prize in my guestbook within A WEEK!

Now for this weekend's theme:

This weekend many of you celebrate Christmas or already celebrated C/hanukkah etc etc

this weekend I want you to(wish you to?) spend some quality time with your loved ones and be happy. That's all. If you wish to tell us why you love Christmas, we'll be happy to hear it. If you want to tell us how people celebrate this holiday in your culture, we are all ears. If you decide to illustrate it with an outfit, even better. 

Do what makes you happy.

Limited Edition is out in Plaza!

Finally!!!

There are 3 new floors and prices range between 210 sd (Celine Inspired Midnight Gown) and 35 sd (Balmain Inspired Choker.)

 The quality of the graphics varies: the Celine Midnight gown, the Balenciaga parka and shearling jacket are beautifully made, but the Chanel Inspired boots and the Vauthier Metallic boots could have used a little(or lot) more work. I also would have liked a lot more accessories(bags, shoes, jewellery, hats etc).

What do you think of this release? Are you buying anything?
