New Tribute Store


Hello fellow BBS Lovers!

All of us remember when, a few months ago, Stardoll went on a spree of new Tribute stores. That the time, it was new to all of use. Some of those tribute stores consisted of Chanel Tribute, Just Cavailli (excuse my spelling), Coture Tribute, DVF Tribute, and more. After those stores left the Plaza, the value is now almost as much as LE, DKNY, and other admired brands.

Now, Stardoll has restarted that fiasco. Yes, I meant fiasco if you are wondering. The reason I describe this streak of stores as a fiasco is because the stores come out one after another after another. We go bankrupt trying to buy our favorite things and maybe 3 weeks later they release a new store that we adore. Now, I admit, these first two Tribute stores I really was not impressed with. However, the new Tribute store, Alice and Olivia, has stolen my heart. I saw it and I am trying to either figure out how I can get more money to buy what I want or what I want more with the money I have.

But enough about my thoughts. What do you think of the new stores? Any favorites? Maybe you have not seen it yet. Here they are :)





I love them. What do you think?

NEW SEGMENT COMING SOON.....

Life sucks with out electronics :P


Missed me?

A couple of days ago there was a really bad storm! My brothers & I were looking out the window (like morons) amazed with how much lightning there was! I say it was around 11pm central time & the lighting would hit every 30 seconds!! every time it hit the whole sky would light up.. it was CRAZY!! Then there was a big BBBOOOOOMMMM!!! I don't know about you but I think my house got hit by lighting HAHAHA!! so our power went out only upstairs but not in my little brothers room... which was very odd don't you think? So it turns out that lightning struck near by & it mist up all our T.Vs & Internet... Can you imagine living without that stuff?? The weirdest part was that the lightning also screwed up my moms suburban... she just got it & the battery wasn't working anymore... This reminded me of that move "War of the Worlds" with Tom Cruise.. very freaky!!! So she's using my buggy till her car is fixed... so no car..no TV.. no Cable.. NO INTERNET!!! WTF!! A whole week without anything to keep me entertain... during the summer.. gosh FML!! So I started sketching :) Here are some things I did below... HAHA man I am so glad we have Internet now xD YAY!!!!!

Stardoll "Safety" Rant


Warning! This may not be appropriate for all readers!

Hello,
So I know I am really only supposed to write about what is new on Stardoll but I just read a post in another blog and I just need to write about it here. (If you want to read this post, click HERE ). I am warning you now, this is a rather...touchy...subject so please keep in mind, this is my opinion. Please don't take this to heart  (unless you are one of the people I am talking about, then you need to talk this to heart). So here I go...

Stardoll prides themselves on being "safe". But really, describe safe. In my opinion, it should mean more then account safety. It should mean that words that are not good or "bad words" should not be allowed. Yes, I admit, Stardoll is maybe half way there but they have a long way to go. How many of you have ever wanted to go to a party on Stardoll and been flooded with party titles such as "S3X Party" (or in translation "Sex Party") or something along those lines? First time I saw one called that, my jaw literally dropped.. I could not believe it. It is not  only at parties, it is everywhere. Little children thinking they are "cool". Really, it is the perfect place for pedophiles to go without going outside there house.

One example of it not only being in parties is below. Now, let me give you a little background story before you think I am a sicko. One day I was about to click on a sale broadcast but it changed and I accidentally clicked on a broadcast saying "Read Presentation". Now, once I was transfered to this girls suite, my dang curiosity got the best of me and I read it. I totally regret it. Here is what I saw:


Really?! Now what really irritates me is I reported her over a month ago. What in that should be allowed?!

Another thing that I HATE!!! Is Stardoll "Dating". Really? Are people that stupid to think that they can find a real boyfriend/girlfriend on Stardoll? And you know it's fake when they say they are 16-19. If they are really that age, they will have a real boyfriend/girlfriend. They are either 1) a little child thinking they are cool or 2) a pervert pedophile. Would you date them in real life? Think about that?

Now, tell me one thing because I really don't understand this, why would you want a "$3% Party"?  I mean, what does it do for you. Some little kid saying something distrusting (and probably not totally understanding it themselves). It is terrible!!

Now, I really enjoy Stardoll. That is why I go on and write for blogs about it but this is wrong on so many different levels. If any of the readers out there participate in any of these actions I want you to ask yourself these questions: Is it appropriate for someone my age to be talking about and thinking/wanting these things? What would my parents think and say if they saw me say and do all this? What would happen if I did this is real life?

And don't comment saying something like "Well it's only an online game". No, don't give me that crap. If you say it, you mean it. In my opinion, if you are not ready for marriage and children, you should not even do any of this (this is my opinion though.) I am not asking anyone to comment or defend who they are. I am not pinpointing anyone. I am addressing a huge and touchy issue on Stardoll. If you have any problems with what I have said, you can contact me HERE for my suite or HERE for my email. Please don't blow up at me or the blog in the comments. Thank you.

Styled Outfits from Stylish Members

Hi all out there (:
Today I’d like to present you some outfits from known members of stardoll. We all love to visit those members that have managed to catch a glimpse of fame and explore their uniquely decorated suites and admire their creative outfits.
This post will be kind of a style lesson because you’ll soon see how those popular members have found their personal style and show it to us. You can be like them, we all can, we just need a cup of creativity and a spoon of imagination to create an incredible and never-seen-before outfit.
So, here are the glamorous outfits I’ve been talking about the last 2 minutes:
1.  Firstly, our beloved PrincessLicha. Known for her great taste of style and her love for helping members by hosting competitions that can make them superstar, is one of the elites of stardoll. Every single time I visit her suite, I get amazed. She is always wearing a unique and stylish outfit made by her and expressing her style. Elegance, creativity and imagination are what I can see in the picture below. Don't you think it's flawless?



2. Filipinhamaria. Another member known for their good heart and unique style and suite. Although her outfits are sometimes too hot for stardoll, as there are small children who also use this site, I just love the way she dresses and expresses her style. I find her whole outfit really creative and it's a quite nice job of hers. It’s a mix ‘n’ match of glam and rock for me.

3. Noelle_page is known for owning the ah-mazing and glamorous blog Memoires of a Medoll (medollmemoires.blogspot.com) and she’s another elite on Dollywood. One look at her outfit and you can see why she’s popular. She’s got it, the sense of style that she has is very developed so she shows it. Again, we see many different pices of cloth used. It's incredible. Agree?

 Hope you liked my post!

See ya soon xxxx

Penthouse Mistake


Hello Girlies!
How many of you were excited when you received the message saying we can now change the backgrounds to our Penthouse Suites? I know I was looking forward to it. Thing is, no one can seem to find the page of options to change it. Yes, you can click on the picture in the message and it will take you to the Suite Shop but after that you're stuck. Frustrating? I feel like it is. Ehh, maybe that is just me. What are your thoughts?

A Pleasant Surprise


Being the precarious and overly-paranoid fool I am, I take it upon myself to change my password every-so-often just to make sure that nobody can ever hack my account or get into any personal sites (such as email). I decided that I was going to change all of my passwords tonight, and so I go though all of my favourites, YouTube, Hotmail.com, Tumblr, Blogger... Oh! I'm so silly, I almost forgot about Stardoll!!
I log in and go to my account page, and click on the "Change Password" button. After I do so, the little boxes pop up and I fill in the required information and my updated password. I click save, and to my surprise, a pop-up box appears.


Click to enlarge, of course. 

Being late at night, I decide to read through it out of pure boredom and the first few paragraphs are just basic information and advice about picking smart passwords and not using consecutive numbers or letters, not using names or slag or words (then what do I use?), but to my shock, as I read the last paragraph, it would seem that Stardoll have done something intelligent. 
After you change your password, your account goes into "Quarantine" or a mini lock down. Recycle, Bazaar and the Gift Shop are all disabled features from your account for 48 hours. 
"48 hours?! But I have a huge sale at the moment!! Grr!"

I log into MSN a few minutes later to change the password on it, and then it says that I have one unread email.
"Hang on... I checked them, like, 2 minutes ago, and it's quarter to twelve at night... Who would email me now?"

I have a new message from... Stardoll!


"Phew."

Turns out that your account is under Quarantine for 48 hours or until you click the validation link in the email they kindly send you. 
So, wanting to get my Stardoll-ing back under way I click the validation link without haste, and it redirects me to Stardoll. 

BOOM!



"Ugh."


Thoughts?

111,111,111 Rant


First, Hello, and I am sorry it has taken me so long to write. I have had a busy few weeks. Now, I bring you an opinion on the new "deal" Stardoll introduced to everyone in honor of the 111,111,111 members.

So what were your thoughts when you first received the message explaining the new offer? Excited? Irritated? Maybe you were ecstatic because you had a chance to get items from Tribute stores such as Chanel, Couture, Just Cavalli (forgive my misspelling), and Sonia Rykiel for free. Other girls were paying more then top dollar for these pieces just days before. Maybe you were a collector that spent not only Stardollars but real life money to buy these and now, they are worth almost nothing. I can honestly say I never thought I would see more then ten Chanel Tribute Dress being sold for two Stardollars in the Bazaar. I know I would be more then upset.

But Before we get to worked up, let's take a look at the WHOLE offer. First, Stardoll released nine pieces of clothing, furniture and accessories to everyone, Superstar and Non-Superstar alike. That was pretty nice considering some of the items are not half bad and can be usable. Then, if you added Stardollars you not only got 11% more but also 500 Starcoins. So far, Stardoll was being generous and kind. Then you scroll down just a bit and you see the rest.

First, the Chanel dress and shoes would be given out to whoever sold an item for more then 20 Stardollars. Come on, what Superstar doesn't do that at least once a week?

Then, the Cavalli (excuse my spelling) dress and Rykiel shoes were offered to whoever created and bought a design we made from the Design shop.

Finally, the Couture dress and another pair of Rykiel shoes went to whoever bought a Superstar membership or added more money (keep in mind the other offers included in all of this).

Wow

All I can think about is, if Stardoll is doing this for 111,111,111 members, imagine future "deals". I feel like Stardoll is doing anything to get more money and in the process, practically destroying collections. Slashing them in half. Throwing value out the window.


These are just my thoughts though. What do you think?

Different Styles

Hey all out there (:
I hope you’re good and enjoying the sun as I do. I’m sorry I didn’t write the past few days, but I was quite busy.
So, today I would like to present you some styles that you probably already know, but they also may help you find your own style.
There are many different styles which you can choose from and you can of course mix them, as I do, because my style for my medoll is not always the same. Sometimes I want to look girlie and other times I want to look elegant. But it also depends on my mood, so if I’m sad I would prefer to look dark and gothic.
So these are some styles that you may like:


My medoll’s style is a little bit of almost all of them. Yours?
Have fun,
Fairydew xxx

NON SUPERSTARS are good looking





Hi everybody!




I know it's too soon for my new post, but because of very nice comments last time, I'm posting it now. Last time, I have seen lots of comments that were saying: It's ok but it's just for superstars. And well, they were right. My last oufit was just for superstars but today's oufit is for NON-SUPERSTARS TOO! :D



I tried not to spend too many starcoins. Enjoy!
