New Basics

It's about time! 



I've been waiting for this since the store came out! 
Basics is awesome when it comes to cheap, and easy. Two of my favorite things. It's great for layering and comes in every color imaginable. 
They finally added black! :D 

Okay, I'm just really happy.

New Tingeling




Here are the new floors. ^-^ 

I quite like it. I love the flow-y skirts, and the colors, they aren't the most practical skirts and dresses when it comes to layering etc, but this is the best Tingeling collection I've seen in a very long time.

6000 Starpoints


I logged on to find that I finally have 6000 Starpoints. The rewards aren't completely amazing, *Cough* Vacuum Cleaner *Cough*, but it's better than nothing. x] 



I really like both hair styles, I don't think I'd necessarily use them too much though.

Beachy Peach Makeup Look

Step One
Add brownish, or brownish red mascaras, then apply a small amount of redish-brown eyepencil to the eyelid. 

Step Two 
Using a brown eye shadow create an outward stroke. Using gold highlight over it, and then once again with the brown. Then you can apply a natural looking pink shadow from the inner corners and blend it into the brown.  Use the peach eyeshadow under the eyes blending it into the outer corners of brown.

Step Three 
Apply a natural yellowish liquid liner in the inner corners. Apply peach in the outer, re-apply the sandy color to the outer corners, over lapping the pink slightly.

Step Four 
Use a peach blush under the cheek bones, and apply a light peach directly to the cheeks. Add a peach lipstick to the lips and highlight them using a nude color. 

Step Five
Add accessories! :] 
Remember to be creative!

New StarDesign Look



I logged on this afternoon to find that Stardoll has redone Stardesign. The first thing I did was have a mini panic attack when I couldn't see all my gorgeous previous designs. Then I clicked 'Go to the design studio', and all my fabrics were there. :] 
I think you might be able to have more fabrics than before. I could be wrong though. I don't know for sure, anyways. I like the new look. 

It feels clean, and more inviting.

Sneak Peak of Later This Week

Two new makeup tutorials! 

Wednesday Feb. 15th

Friday Feb. 17th



Star Blog

A very popular discussion topic at this moment.

What is a Starblogger? A Starblogger is someone who is lucky enough to have the opportunity to write for the Stardoll based blog, the Star Blog.

How do you become one? Simple answer, you ask. When I applied I simply sent them a paragraph asking if I could be a Starblogger, I proof read it a few times, and submitted it along with a link to this blog.

Is it all that worth it? Well, umm... no, not necessarily.

Positives:
-Getting to post on the Star Blog (Not necessarily something you agree with, or your own personal idea, but a post. Your post) 
-Lots of friend requests to earn your daily starcoins with.
-Some really genuinely nice guestbook comments.
-Popularity

Negatives:
-Popularity
-Hate, lots of it.
-A feeling or guilt and/or regret.
-A billion guestbook comments to answer (It's not as much fun as you think).
-A thousand more people on chat who want to talk to you more than anything in the world.
-Fake friends. The ones who add you as friends and stick you on their best friends list like some sort of trophy.

If you're like me and don't always deal with negatives well; side effects may include:
-Mood swings
-Uncontrollable swearing
-A bruised up 11 year old brother. (Just because everything a little brother says to you gets to you that much more when you're upset.)

Long Term Effects:
-Addiction
-A feeling of superiority-- until you realize that once you log off the computer you go back to your boring life.

Becoming a Starblogger is like running for US President, everyone who's running is isn't qualified, and everyone who is doesn't want the job. Do I necessarily think I'm a great writer, no. Absolutely not. I am the worst story teller in the world you can ask any of my friends. Do I post what Stardoll wants to see, yes. They want you to feature members, they want makeup looks, tutorials. It's a space of consumption.
~ A term I learned in my AP Human Geography class, it simply means that the it's used for comercial purposes, to advertise Stardoll. It's not a place for your own personal thoughts and opinions. Those belong elsewhere. It's a place of business. You have to maintain your business-like image while on the job.

You don't bite the person that feeds you.

My Very Successful Day as Superstar (Sarcasm)

Oh! Lookie here! I'm superstar! I answered all 7 questions correctly. Look at my gold plated name tag thing!

Look at all the awesome superstar features I get! 







I even get to show everyone else I'm superstar! 


I'm a bit disappointed if you can't tell. I can't do anything out of the ordinary. The only thing different is that my name is surrounded in gold. My expectations aren't very high. I was just at least hoping I could dress up a premium doll. -_- 
This is not superstar. 
This is no where near to superstar.

Poll Results


Okay. So the January poll is now closed. Here are the results. 
With a total of 62 different people voting, 48 of them voted for more makeup tutorials. So, I have some good news on that; I've listened and there are plenty more on the way. 
The most controversial result I got was about the writers. For right now, only me and Monica (Missme815) will be posting. When Aba's on she might post some. I know that mjlinda10 is taking a break. So, um.. yeah. Poll results.

Role-Play Clubs

It's not a secret that one of my secret obsessions on Stardoll are role-play clubs. 
I'm honestly fascinated with the idea of stepping out of your normal character and playing someone else, someone different. In this post I'm just going to list a few clubs that I think are great, or have potential of being great.

To start off~ 
popcornDaisy 's club: Windsor_Prep 

This club is great if you're into the whole typical high school drama. There are tons of cat-fights and it's usually pretty active. 

Free-HugZ 's club: RuthenPrep 

This club is in the middle of restarting so it's the perfect time to join. My new character's name is Rhiannon Taylor just a heads up incase you're looking for some new friends. 

Sabra4390 's club (my club...): AmorphousPrep 

What I think is uniquely different about my club is that there aren't any cliques, giving it a socially equal environment. The only problem is it's becoming notoriously boring. I might have to do something to stir up the drama a little bit... 

More to come...

New Polish, Tiptoe, and Sprinkled


Theses are the new colors, and personally I love the sparkly clear coat. If I had any money I would totally buy it. All I would do is paint over my current nails though.... 
I also really like the red hearts nail polish. I dunno why, it just kinda sticks out to me and it's something I'd wear in real life. 



Above are the new floors in Sprinkled and Tiptoe ^ 

I like the black hearts, and the small red open hearts. I think there is quite a bit you can do with this collection, I wouldn't however purchase any of this.
