The July Update

This month at TTT we've achieved a massive milestone, and have for the first time ever on this blog's history, managed to pull in over 20,000 views purely from this month alone. None of this would have happened without the success of  TTT FW and I'm very thankful for how well the blog is doing.

The best dressed lists and lottery announcements will come later on in August, both of which I'm sorry for taking so long to get out. Other than that, a writers search will be held to hire two to three extra writers to the blog. On a final note, what would you like to see on TTT in the coming months?

P.S, make sure to check out our newest partner Mode Magazine! The spoiler is incredibly promising and with a team featuring the likes of Sevilanna94, goodgal7, martusia_144 and fashionngirl. it's bound to be a success. Check it out by clicking here.

WARNING!

Hey guys,
I have some unfortunate news. Today my blogger account was hacked and unlawfully went to the wrong hands. With that, the hacker deleted all of my blogs; those including Stardoll's Appearance, HAUTE magazine, and the likes.

Though, I was able to retrieve the account and restore everything deleted with it. I'm very fortunate to have been able to reclaim all as my own.

That, however, doesn't mean I'm safe online. The hacker may be able to access my profile, and easily be able to delete my blogs once more. That said, I wanted to warn you of the circumstances.

If you get strange messages from my account claiming of one thing or another, immediately ignore the message and report the account.

As for everyone else who may or may not be in danger or loosing their account, be warned of what links you click on, where you may fill out personal information, and anything similar to that. I've never given my password out to anyone, yet in my name, my account was abused by the wrong person/people.

Thanks for taking the time to read this. Stay safe.

Hot Buys "Summer Retro" Collection (Part II)


So it seems as if the nightmare hasn't ended for Hot Buys collectors. Just recently, Stardoll did another "re-release" of the old summer Hot Buys collections, rendering the pieces currently on sale essentially worthless in StarBazaars and collectors' Suites alike. I stand to the point that I made quite a few weeks ago, when I reviewed the pros and cons of the first re-release; Stardoll may be thinking a step ahead in regards to trying to minimize scams and hacks on some of these semi-rare items, however, not at a significant cost to users.


There's really not much to say that I haven't said already, so I'll leave you all here with some advice: I'd start getting rid of those Hotbuys if they're still worth anything. Considering the summer is almost over, and we've about a month (give or take), I wouldn't take any chances on them releasing another old collection, as this seems to be the trend recently. All I can do now is wait patiently in the hopes that Stardoll designers might release some decent collection in the coming months to make up for this disappointment. Maybe they're using the re-releases to buy them time for a big project? Only time will tell.

New Release: The Yacht


Another day, another new suite expansion. This time around Stardoll have released two new Yacht inspired rooms priced at a mere 249 stardollars. Alongside the release of the suite pack Stardoll have also released four floors of a new store Yacht Club, with the obscene prices going up to a massive 80 stardollars. Although it is a nice new edition to our suites I can't help but feel slightly angered at Stardoll for the huge prices. As years have gone on the price for stardollars/superstar has risen and the price for items has also gone up. I would be completely fine with a 30 stardollar pool or a mirrored bath tub for 20 stardollars but 80 and 42 stardollars are both too much for such insignificant things. This isn't even to mention the very regular items such as towels, lights, plants and shells which are all around 20 stardollars. Overall it's a good room with some amazing interior, however whether it's worth the huge sum of money is questionable. Will you be purchasing The Yacht?

TTT FW Winners


Numerous winners indicates a tie between multiple releases.

New Release: Christian Louboutin

After dreaming for years, a Louboutin tribute has finally made it's way onto Stardoll. Admittedly, I was skeptical while browsing the spoilers as the quality is not fully on par as many would have loved, but with prices at a mere 11 - 18 stardollars I couldn't help but indulge in a few pairs. I have a feeling that these shoes will end up similar to the rare Young Hollywood heels so catch them while you can as they will be available for one month only. What are your thoughts on the third tribute of this year?

Team members: queendetox
Description: X Apparel  RTW SS 13 is a minimal, simplistic collection following a monochromatic theme with a tint of rosy shades. The collection is displayed in a Stardoll store format and is inspired by trends seen on the streets, clashed with those on the runway.

COLLECTION 5: EAMONN COLLINS

Team members: fashionngirl.
Description: For many years now, I have always been a huge fan of 60’s fashion, but I haven’t really fashioned a collection totally inspired by the 60’s generation. 70% of my entire collection features the collared shirt-dresses – but in the 60s they’ve always featured the hideous colourful prints, which may not wearable in today’s world, so I really wanted to create pieces that are completely wearable for all body types in a safe slimming black. The finally dress features a print of the 60s modelling icon, Twiggy.

STARDESIGN SURPRISE: Antagonisme By Style

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


-Head over to Style's Bazaar by clicking here, or to her suite by clicking here.

Antagonisme is Style_Magazine’s first collection of Limited Edition designs. It is focused on two colors that have characterized her from her beginnings in Dollywood: Black and White. In this collection, both tones face, leading to an explosion of elegance and magnificence that brings back the best of the Golden Age. The blinding brightness of pure white mixed with jet-black sobriety, suggesting some touches of pearl gray. The simplicity of the colors is opposed to the lush fabrics and materials, creating a more antagonistic combination yet. Antagonisme is a safe bet for this season, as it offers its customers exclusive and versatile garments, suitable for any occasion.

COLLECTION 2: DIOGUARDI













Team members: Laia_fergusson_
Models: Adela (A.d.a.1234), Alex (Pau.Cam.Arena), Ashley (Ashley_Doggett), Cecilia (Mery.-), Elena (Gktkmk), JB (Laurenboy), Jomi (Illuminasty), Juno (Junonuno), Kasia (Tlen), Linda (Elite-girl), Marina (Qwerty456) and Scarlett (Starlett24). (Alphabetic order)

Description: The girl with the crown.
I am happy to announce that Dioguardi is back this season. After "The Last Manifesto", the last and only Dioguardi collection created by Manolo (Manolo.DiCicco), it is time to introduce a new era; this season, colors like red, black, white, gold or nude take over the runway. The whole collection is inspired by royal highness, as well as iconic characters such as Cruella De Vil (Fur, animal prints, hairstyling…). There are plenty of graceful yet sexy dresses, especially considering Dioguardi's previous collections. I have tried to keep the original essence of the brand, adding my personal touch and my ideas.

COLLECTION 1: EUPHORIA












MAGAZINE 1: BEAUTY


One of two of our surprise magazines - Hope you enjoyed.
