Weekend OOTD - Sexy In Sunglasses Results

Congrats to Dollwars34 for winning 50 SD! Winner of the 20 SD raffle for those who entered both days is lovelovelove134! I am going on a cruise tomorrow so unfortunately there won't be OOTD this weekend most likely. 

Please claim prizes in the comments, I won't be able to gift while I'm away so I can only gift items from the Balenciaga tribute or later for those who want tribute items. 

Stay Stylish,

Aniyah 

P.S. - If I haven't gifted you (from this blog) and you have items from Anna Sui or Alexander Wang, leave a comment below as well, I'll try to get you before they leave.  

Chat Page 3... Probably

Disqus seems to be back to normal (yay!) though I still don't actually know what went wrong :(

So...


Chat away on this page, and I will keep an eye on the mod page while I can.

Until Jenna returns, I have no power to understand what happened, nor can I promote more mods, so I'm as frustrated and clueless as the rest of you about this.


POTENTIALLY


I could remove the current disqus and replace it with a new system, or simply a different disqus portal. That way, I could set all the controls including new mods, and be able to control any future issues.

BUT

This would remove all the comments and threads that we have had up until now. They will exist in an archive, but only accessible to mods. Regular users and members wouldn't be able to see them. Since we've had disqus for years, this will be thousands of comments vanished, possibly for good.


Feel free to chat away, and give your opinnions on this.

Calling All Non-SS Voting

Hello doll’s, it’s time as a community to choose a winner for the first non-ss competition.
Please go to the thread and read all entries it’s too much to post then all here. I know it’s a lot of reading but please go take a look to cast your vote.
This time it’ll be a little different. I want you to give me your top 3 from favorite to least.

DISQUS PROBLEMS

Disqus has been eating comments on the Chat 2 page  - and I suspect it has eaten comments posted elsewhere as well.

Basically, some will show up to some people, but not to others. Some will show up on the moderation panel, but not on the actual post. And some will be fine on the post, but not show up on the mod panel.

Quite simply, I have neither the knowledge or power necessary to do anything about this. I know it is not SDC, bots, members, or spammers, this is an issue with Disqus itself.

WRITERS - Please void posting any more comps until this can be sorted or disqus replaced. Otherwise, there's a chance entries may be lost to the void and that would be very unfair.

USERS - Please be patient. I'm afraid I may need to have a third chat page set up with a different forum, instead of disqus. I will update this once I am back from my lecture class. If you can avoid using chat, please do.


Please join our (kind of ancient) club, http://www.stardoll.com/en/clubs/home.php?id=379570 - I have set up a temporary chat page. It will be awkward, but it's all we have for the moment.

Weekend OOTD - Sexy In Sunglasses Voting -

Time to vote, this poll is up early since I'll be traveling on Wednesday.  Please chose your Top 3 outfits. Since I am short on time (again) I am doing numbers instead of usernames. 

The poll will close on Tuesday at 11:59 P.M. EST. Yes, I know that's only 24 hours but I hope to get results up before I leave.

Off-White Tribute released

It's Monday and this means a new release in Plaza. 

Apparently, we are still in Tribute Season, so that's what we got - a new tribute release (thanks to all of you who posted about it in the current chat-post).

Stardoll staff graced us with a (rather small compared to the other tributes) Off-White Tribute. There is only one floor of items. 

The prices range between 17 and 33 SD; there are no SC items. They styled two male mannequins, but in reality, only the tops are different :/

I am not impressed with this release; it seems rushed and really random. The best pieces (in my humble opinion) are male tops (but then again, I'm not a fan of the Simpsons, so they are pretty much useless to me), male shoes, and maybe even the yellow bag. The interior isn't bad, but it doesn't appear to be sellable (at least at the moment).

What are your thoughts on this release? Do you like it? Do you hate/dislike it? Will you buy anything? Share your thoughts and opinions in the comments below.

Have a great day!

Weekly Chat - 2

I suspect I'll be doing it as a 'Weekend' chat (posted Friday) as the weekends are often busier and have releases, and then a secondary 'weedkay' chat... or maybe I'll do new ones based off comment numbers, who knows.  Either way, it's a lot easier to moderate a few days of LE crazy than it is to moderate over a year's worth!

Anyway, have the comment of the week(end):

Weekend OOTD - Sexy In Sunglasses

Hi Dollies! FM-Agency hosted a sunglasses contest a while back so I thought, why not host one on SMW? I was also really inspired by members of the BCII finals who created amazing looks using headscarves and shades - - > BCII Album xd So for this weekend create a Sexy outfit with your favorite pair of Sunnies. Here are some examples.

Here is a picture of David Beckham rocking some Sexy Sunglasses! 

If we get 25+ entries the prize will be 50 SD, if not it'll be 35 SD :)

Rules:

1. Each doll gets one entry each on Saturday & Sunday (those who enter both days will be entered into a raffle) 

2. Voting will occur on Tuesday, no fakes are allowed to be used

3. Post your USERNAME & DATE along with your outfit below on this post

Stay Stylish,

Weekend OOTD - Travel Time Results

Congrats to AndreaBaby05 for winning 45 SD! Winner of the 20 SD raffle for those who entered both days is Vogue_veronica! A little surprise for Y'all, I'm uping prizes this weekend. Obviously, this means we need more entries but with all these collections coming out I thought I'd help everyone out. My surveys are really kicking in, I've done 5 in the last 24 hours alone! 

Please claim prizes in the comments, I think I am friends with both of you so if the items aren't on your WL but in Plaza, I can still send them :) If I am not friends, just send me a request. 

Stay Stylish,

Aniyah 

P.S. - Lip Giveaway on my blog, I want everyone who's active on this blog to have a chance :) And I won a wig on facebook yesterday, so would y'all be interested in doing a huge wig giveaway at some point? 

(MORE) Limited Edition

Barely a month since the previous collection, and just over a week since RE-LE, we have a new floor of LE.


There's a shockingly small number of items, and pieces of each. There's also a male doll half off the screen for some reason?  Several pieces sold out within minutes of the release.

The Uglies: Checkered Dress Winner

With a whopping 47% of the vote, the winner is...

 Ann_devil !

Please add items up to 25sd in your wish-list, and tell me which ones you would like in the comments below.

Weekend OOTD - Travel Time Voting

Hey guys, so sorry for the late poll, I was super busy shopping for the cruise and everything. Plus, my mom was punishing me for not driving by locking the computer. For those of you who don't know, I'm really scared of hitting someone or getting hit so my parents are trying to figure out ways to help me get over my fears. Being forced to do something makes me as if it's just another obstacle to overcome instead of this huge, looming fear of mine. 

Please chose your Top 3 outfits. Since I am short on time I am doing letters instead of usernames. 

The poll will close on Friday 11:59 P.M. EST

New 9to5

Hello everyone and welcome to another Wednesday!

Stardoll graced us with a new floor in the 9to5 store. The theme this time seems to be aviation (or something like that). We got four new outfits for three occupations - a flight attendant, two pilot outfits and (for some reason) a space outfit. The prices range between 6 (5) SD for scarf and gloves to 25 (23) SD for the "interior".

I am not the biggest fan of this release, to be honest. I think that Stardoll staff missed a lot of opportunities with this one. To begin with, I strongly dislike the fact that a lot of clothing items are fused together (tie and shirt, jacket, tie and shirt, pants and belt). There are (again) no "boy body type" clothes. And the boots are just recoloured version of the brown ones from the previous release. At least the space suite might come handy (if you have a space-inspired room).

What are your thoughts on this release? Will you buy anything? Share your thoughts and (possible) stylings in the comments below!

Have a great day!
