The fashion detective: He's the prettiest girl.

 After seeing myself on the inactive list of writers today, I felt pretty ashamed and therefore decided to finish the post I started a few days ago. I hope that some remember my very own segment called 'The fashion detective', but I'm guessing you don't. So I will pretty much write about everything involved with fashion, if there are things you want me to address just tell me in the comment section!

 Soo, I'm pretty sure all of you guys, at least the ones who are involved in fashion have heard about Andrej Pejic. He recently shot the cover and an editorial for FASHION Magazine. I thought that it was kinda fun to see him in these pictures, especially while reading the quotes. He seems to be enjoying his life as the most androgynous model ever[??] and doesn't take himself too seriously about the fact that he is modeling women's wear.

Here are some pictures from Frebruary's issue:





He recently started controversy after he landed a campaign for a Hema. Doesn't sound as spectacular, huh?! But it is a campaign for ... Pushup bras...!!
 
 
 
I was pretty shocked after I heard about it. I mean, I love him and I think he is one of the most amazing models nowadays. I just love his pictures. But Push up bras? Seriously?!
And that isn't all: He said that his biggest dream would be to walk for no other brand than Victoria's Secret!
 
Without giving away too much of my opinion I want to ask you guys what you think about all of it. Is it too much when a man sales clothes for women? Would it be as bad if it was the other way round? And could you imagine him walking next to Adriana Lima and co. ?

Tell me in the comments!

Introducing... Zadig & Voltaire


Remember about my column? 'Introducing...'
It's back!

And to stick to my roots, I'm introducing another french brand, which I love and wear. You may say I'm always posting about french brands... but it's my country, I feel proud to live here and I believe that everyone should be proud of their origins. And our common passion is fashion, so today let me introduce you : Zadig & Voltaire.

In a historic point, Zadig & Voltaire has been created in 1996 by Thierry Gillier. Your question is : where is the brand's name from, then?Well, all the french knows the answer, but I'm not sure that people from other countries could know that. Voltaire is actually a french author, and one of his books is called Zadig. Thierry Gillier just thought about this name because Zadig is the character of the book, and he's described as a very classy and good dressed man.
Interesting, no?

Also, a sentence that Zadig & Voltaire fans love to say:


Then, Zadig & Voltaire is known because of their modern class... Skulls are pretty much everywhere, but everyone loves it. Instead of explaining, take a look:








Amazing, no?

Well, it's up for you to say what you think in the comment section of this post, of course!
I personally like it, it's my style, but I understand that it can not be the style of anyone...

Christmas Cheer

merry christmas greetings
I am shocked. I brought in my friends Christmas presents the other day and was stopped by a girl who I am quite good friends with. She turned to me with a very puzzled gaze and said" Presents! Already, but it is only December? What! I meant a week until Christmas."  Ah she always manages to make me giggle. It was then my turn to look puzzled, it is a week until Christmas but many people have not realized just how close the holiday is or have they bought their presents! I love Christmas and have been ready since November, because I am just that sad, however I wanted to bring the holidays to TTT.

These are some of my favourite christmas songs.







I wish you all a wonderful holiday and if you don't celebrate it, have a great 25th of December anyway.

Lolita? Back? Again?


Well kay...
I'm surprised this hasn't been published yet.

If you do not know who Lolita is, you're with suffering from some strange mental condition, or you're a noob on Stardoll. She's quite well known as the biggest fame whore on Stardoll. Her name was Miss_LolitaF She was a welite, she became elite, she was an attention seeking bitch! But we all loved her... one way or another.
Well, she always departed dollywood and came back. Left and came back again! Numerous amount of times. They even had to invent a new number!

Well, after returning from putting her account on survival mode from "hackers," she then, all of a sudden... left.
But when I was talking to this random chic who works under ICON, or whatever it is, she referred me to speak to "Lolita."
I was surprised for two reasons. One, she spoke to me like this "Lolita," girl was well known around Stardoll. Secondly, Miss_LolitaF is the only Lolita that I know.
So, when I searched for Lolita's account, which I knew already was deleted, I found this...

This particular member caught my eye. Yes, I know there are so many fakes out there on Stardoll, but this one just had a certain ring towards it...
I went onto her page to investigate further.


Now doesn't this look interesting?
Same grammar and all, but different doll. I don't think Lolita would have had a different doll if she returned.
It says on her presentation, that she had problems in real life, resulting in termination of her Stardoll account.
What also got to me. If this is the real Lolita, wouldn't she have made a huge comeback, instead of just coming back.
There have been no guestbook comments, no blog posts, no friend requests or anything.
So I'm leaving you guys up as the jury.

Is this "Lolita," the real deal, or just some bitch pretending to be her.
Comment Guiiiss.

On the Subject of LE...

 (Yes, this is my old banner. Kind of prefer this one, not too sure...)


I was just wondering...
Is this the slowest ever selling out collection? (Excluding LE Decor.)
After all, the collection usually sells out in a lot less than 24 hours, this one has been out for 4 days and still has numerous items remaining, 3 of which being clothes. I definitely prefer the idea of just having clothes in one collection; and decor in the other. Because after all, if it is a mixed collection, people tend to the purchase the clothes, and totally forget, or don't even realise, that there is random pieces of furniture in the background.

I'm really not surprised this collection isn't selling out though. Some of it is really badly made, I like some things, but quite a few are tacky. Then it's overpriced. 120 for an ugly pair of gold boots? 120 for an ugly lamp? 200 FOR A GLOWING UNICORN?! And then 100 for a tiny lion statue? Even the interiors are cheaper than that!


What happened to all the clothes being as amazing as this...?


-Over and out,
Kimberly Dean.

Do you hate me too?


Yes, well I know people hate me, but this is the first time someone was too scared to say it in person and make a fanclub. This image is the presentation of "ihatewooldoor". More comical than insulting I think. Now I don't know who this could be. I've abused/harassed/upset alot of people on Stardoll, in person actually, but does this person have a name?

She thinks she knows me, and everything that I would tell her. I don't know her, well actually, it could be a him... And the part where it speaks about nude graphics... I HATE nude graphics! They are so overrated now! It's all like "Look at me! I have my tits out!" Pssh!

This person has a name. Someone from New Zealand would know who has won covergirl 10 times.
Personally, I think she's lying about that. I will give 100sds to who can tell me who it is. No joke. Also, I'd like to thank EssRox for entering my competition. You will be in Monster magazine sometime soon.

Guess away my munchkins.

The people's competition-Results

Thank you all who entered the competition, your entries were all amazing and it was tricky to choose who to put in what position.  I am afraid that pasion_katii your tinypic had stopped working, but if you want to leave a new link below and I think it is worthy I will give you a prize. I loved the emotions and thought you told me you put into your entries and in the end I had to go with the entry that moved me the most.

In first place we have Princess_Kiara . This is her entry and what she had to say about it...



What "inspired" me:
My graphic has a clear message, I don't think that any additional caption is needed. Basically it's about self harm - many people who are bullied, rejected, or anyhow unhappy with themselves or their life, are self harming, injuring, however you'd call it. They keep it a secret, and keep on doing it - as time goes by, their cuts are getting deeper(they're cutting deeper). They hope that the physical pain will make the mental one fade away, but it never happens. I've gone through all I wrote here, I was keeping it a secret, untill my mom found bloody tissues, and I had to tell her about it. It wasn't the best thing ever to do, but it probably saved my life. This is why I think self harm isn't the right way to deal with such pain. People should speak about their problems to someone they trust, instead of releasing the pain with cutting. Also in the same time, I think it's very wrong to think that cutters belong to the emo subculture. Some may, but not all do. Emo as a stereotype, label,... makes you pretty much a social reject, words can hurt too.

Not only was your entry beautifully made and represent exactly what you were saying, the story behind it was inspirational and you had put real time into it. 

In second place we have  MMAlovergirl


and in third place _starhelen_



Please contact me in my guestbook and I will put up your prizes for you. Kiara you get first choice and can tell me which item you would like, they are in my closet room. 

Thank you to Fiorama, lolLara123, angel28790 and cutesueellen for entering. You all have so much talent and I am sure we will be seeing more of it.
