Cycle 3 Winners!

Hi everyone!

We have reached the end of Cycle 3! Although we had a very small pool of contestants this go around, I appreciate that each of you stuck till the end and still gave your best effort! It was a pleasure working with all of you and if any of you want to send ME feedback on what you think I could do better or what you would like to see, please do!

I also realized after Week 2, that I hadn't showed anyone your scores. If you would like to see them, just let me know but I will say the feedback we gave you is on par with the scores each of you got. 

I apologize for the delay in wrapping up this cycle however I will be sending Feedback by the end of the weekend for task 4 and 5! 

Now on for the winner... Congrats to....

For the prizes I said 1st Place receives 500SD, 2nd place receives 300SD, 3rd place receives 200SD and because 4th place was so close,  will also recieve 200SD. I'll be writing your guestbooks soon!

Week's recap: Active, Epiphany, It Girls + December birthdays

First of all, I'd like to apologise for not posting 'December birthdays' post sooner, but I've been so busy this week with all kinds of different things - from crafting wreaths for my mum, signing my work contract (I start on Monday which could possibly mean even less time for writing, but I'll try to keep a schedule), but also for not posting separate posts for these releases (again, lack of time).

Monday's release was Active. One of my least favourite stores on Stardoll; it didn't "disappoint", again. 

All was themed around winter sports. Besides the male hockey outfit (why nothing for girls, Stardoll?!), everything else was pretty much seen before. Looking much better, naturally. The only redeeming factors for me were piles of snow. 

There were no starcoins items and the prices range from 7 to 14 SD before discount.

Wednesday brought Epiphany - with a lot of technical difficulties (the items were too small for some reason; note: when I'm writing this, everything looks "normal"). All items are BP only, unlike previous two (I believe) releases. I do wish for the headband and pearl (or snowball to be more accurate) necklace to be suite items as well, I think. 

Again, no starcoins items. Prices range from 6 to 17 SD before the discount.

And, at last, today (Friday) we got new It Girls. Definitely the best release of the week, no questions asked (at least for me, but from Chat posts, I'm not the only one). While there were no major new looks or silhouettes (or whatever) and even some "look-a-likes" as user rasrix pointed out, I still like several of the pieces myself.

Again (and it feels like that's the theme of the week), there are no starcoins items and the prices range from 6 to 18 SD.

What are your thoughts on this week's releases? Share your opinions, looks, whatever in the comments below, just adhere to the standard chat rules.

And now to the second part of this post - December birthdays. 

So, if you celebrate your birthday in December and would like to be mentioned in the monthly post, please leave a comment below with your USERNAME and your BIRTHDATE. 

There is a chance for you to get a feature post, but that's often depending on your activity and of course on the activity of other writers (individual posts were never my "domain" and I doubt that I'll have time for it anyways with my new job and all).

Have a great day (or whatever remains of it) and a lovely weekend!

xoxo, Anja

New Subcouture Released-Giveaway

I really love it! 

What do you guys think?

We've got an assortment of brands, it's not kind of the club/trendy vibe that I had come to expect from SBC, but I'm really loving almost everything.

I feel like we haven't had a good release in a while, so I'm pleased. Plus I love SBC because you have 3 days to get it.

Are y'all buying anything?

New Basics Decor + Giveaway

Hello! Lovely Monday to you all!

As we are all aware, new week on Stardoll means new release :)

Today we got Basics Decor.

There are three new floors, each in its own colour (black, cream and grey). The prices range from 90 (81) SC to 230 (207) SC.

  

Personally, I like the back facing sofa(s), dried hortensia(s) in bowl(s), hanging lights, and maybe few other things as well, but those three items grabbed my attention from the start. Oh, the stairs, that's right! Can't forget the stairs. They just might prove themselves rather useful ;)

What are your thoughts on the collection? Will you be buying anything? Feel free to share your thoughts and pictures of your suites with these items in the comments below!

xoxo,

Anja

First ten people to share their favourite item from this release and post one decor item they wish to see on Stardoll will receive one item from the collection.
