Chloe's Pick of the Day, 26-8-11 :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Gotta be quick with this one :)  Ok, today's pick is from Sprinkled, and I don't think I've ever chosen from there before so this is a new one :)  Take a look:

That's right, it's the Tatto Chinese Love as stardoll call it, or basically in normal speak the Chines symbol for love- as a tattoo.  Sadly, it's only for SuperStars, but it'll only cost you 2 stardollars which I think is fab as it comes up bigger than you'd expect on your hand!  Take a look:

See what I mean?  What do you think about today's pick?

Not so random free outfit :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi, so if you read my last post, you'll know how confused I was over the random free outfit :)  (Check out the last post to find out how to get it.)  Well, now we've been informed, so yeah :)  Look at the message you should have gotten:

Well that makes more sense!  I wondered what all the numbers next to the free outfit were about...  But, this is all not quite right, though, because look how many members we have:

Look, uhm, stardoll- it appears you're about 400,000 members short of celebrating?  I mean, what if no-one else joins stardoll EVER?  You never know?!  And once again, it seems that stardoll is celebrating too early.  I don't care though cos' I've now got some free stuff :)  What are your thoughts on all of this?

The new songs you MUST listen to! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi :)  So, I was looking around YouTube, as you do- well, as I do quite a lot actually..  ANYWAY, I've found some FAB new songs that you just HAVE to feast your ears on :)  I've tried to get a little of a range.  It's the first time I've heard these songs; it might not be for you, cos' if you're a fan you'll probably of already put these song on your iPod x)  Either way, here goes :)  Plug in your headphones or blast these through the speakers :)

The first song I've chosen is the newest from David Guetta- he's teamed up with Jennifer Hudson to create a seriously catchy tune :)  If you're not impressed at first, wait for the chorus, it majorly steps up after that..  Here's Night Of Your Life:

Ok, next song, something a bit different.  This one's a lot slower, and stars Wretch 32 and Emeli Sande, so I'm sure you can already tell how good this is going to be!  It's really catchy, but kinda calm, it's nice: take a listen:

And before I move onto my favourite, there's also another Wretch 32 song I'd like to introduce you to.  This time, with someone you may just be a little more familiar with, especially if you've been into popular music recently: Ed Sheeran.  Yes, Ed Sheeran- not who you'd expect, huh?  But this is a good mix they've got going here.  You'll get to hear Eddy with a little more of a beat behind his voice- nothing beats his acoustic's, though- but here's Hush Little Baby:

I like that one the more I listen to it, ehe...  Now's my favourite: from Jessie J :)  I love her so much, and here's an AMAZING one from her- the beat's been compared to Katy Perry's Last Friday Night, and both songs were produced by the same guy- but never mind, here's a majorly catchy song with amazing vocals :)  It's Domino:

Ooh, also if you're a fan of Jessie J, here's something you should definitely be adding to whatever you can :)  Lookie:

Random FREE Outfit in the Starplaza! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Heya guys!  So I was checking out the starplaza, and randomly on the front page..  There's a whole free outfit!  Take a look at it:

What do you think?!  I'm not sure what it's even for: all I can make out on the price tag is that it's some "Special Offer", but it obviously just hasn't been advertised yet...  Weird!  What do you think of the actual clothes?  I'm not really sure about the things in general, all together like that...  But some of the individual pieces are really nice- the dress and the tights?  I don't care though, grab 'em while you can!  If you're lazy, click here to go straight to the starplaza!  I guess the shoes aren't so bad, either?  But the good thing- GREAT thing is that they're free to EVERYONE: good on you, stardoll :)  What are your thoughts on all of this?  Feel free to post any of your thoughts :)  Would be nice :)

Chloe's Pick of the Day, 23-8-11 :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi- so, getting straight to it- today I'm picking, as I haven't really done for a while, a beauty product!  Let's take a look at it!

Yes, as you may have guessed, it's the Sea of Stars Purple Nova Nail Polish, from the fairly newish Sea of Stars nail polish range!  Obviously it's SuperStar only, -.- but it'll cost you 16 stardollars, which I don't consider too bad compared to the prices of the other nail polishes.  I really like the colour and the effect of this particular nail polish.  It's almost like crystals!  I think it's supposed to be a starry effect, considering the name of it.  Have a look at what it'll look like on your nails!  Lookie:

It's quite nice, isn't it?  I just really love the purple colour that they've used here, and the way the design is up the side of the nail looks gorgeous- it just really reminds me of crystals...  Ugh, I really could go on forever about this nail polish, aha...  What do you think about them?  What do you think about the new nail polish range from Sea of Stars, or the nail polishes in general?  Do you own any?  Want any?  Think they're stupid?  Comments are welcome as always :)  You should know that by now :)

Picks of the day Outfits :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Well I was trying to think of some things to do, and I was looking over the recent picks of the day, and I thought- why not made a couple of outfits?! So, if you've been following the picks of the days, and maybe bought some of them but are unsure of how to wear them, this post is for you! Or also for anyone just looking for some new outfits :) Let's take a look:

Personally, the second outfit is my favourite, and I'm aiming to buy as much as I can from it (Minus the top, which is only available for SuperStars...) but I do like the first outfit :) What do you think? These were obviously both just ideas- you can do whatever you like with the clothes :) Comments?

Chloe's Pick of the Day, 20-8-11 :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi :)  So today's pick is obviously not from Shake it Up..  As I have now left that behind.  *Sniff*  But today brings another pick, and another pick that is absolutely gorgeous!  Let's take a look:

Yuppers, it's the Bunny Shades Tee from Pretty n' Love and it costs 14 stardollars so sadly it's only available for SuperStars...  But us nonnies can still look at it from afar, and pose in it in our dressing rooms.  I really like how cute and kooky it is :')  You could wear this with either a pair of slightly highwaisted shorts/ skirt or maybe shorts, jeans or a skirt with a belt, your choice.  go crazy!  Maybe even add a scarf or some pretty jewellery :)  Comments?

Mortal Kiss: Fool's Silver :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hiya :)  Remember Mortal Kiss?  Well, now there's another story, called Mortal Kiss: Fool's Silver.  Like the first one, I'm not reading this, but you can read it..  This was the mail you should have received about it:

By clicking on it, you come to this page:

 There's basically a calendar: if you open the doors, each day a new door opens and there's a gift behind it [Which you have to buy -.-], but you can only buy gifts from the current day, or the day before it- after two days, you can't buy a certain gift anymore.  This is all they have, currently: but there will be a contest and a store, which is good.  You can read the story, if you want: click on the pic below :)

But it seems overall that there won't be the same interactive-story feel that there was last time..  On my old blog, I did updates for the old interative thing: won't be doing that this time round then...  Ooh, also, if you want to join the club, click the picture of it below!

It also hints on the main page above that there will be beauty products..?  Wow, I wonder what these are going to be like?  What springs to mind is the Sea of Stars nail polish range.  Maybe there'll be something like that: maybe something for Non-SuperStars at last?  Comments?  Are you reading the story?

Miss Stardoll World returns! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Heya!  So, you should have known about Miss Stardoll World returning for a few days, as we all got this message in our mail:

Or, you may even have spotted the advert on the main stardoll page earlier this week:

But either way, you'll now be aware that the Miss Stardoll World competition returns in UNDER two weeks!  Did you click the adverts for more information?  If so, you'll have found this page:

And, that's all any of us can find at the mo...  If I find any more, I'll update you guys!  Are you excited?  Are you going to enter?  I'll talk more about this when it starts: but for all those who joined stardoll in the last year, Miss Stardoll World is basically a competition you can enter: people get chosen and then everyone votes for the winner :)

Chloe's Pick of the Day, 19-8-11 :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Heya!  Well, as I can happily announce today's pick is from the Shake it up store, once again..  But sadly, I think this be my last pick of the day from there, as I have chosen all my favourite bits from there...  But anyway, what shall I end it with?  Let's take a look:

Yes, it's the SIU Checkered Red Shirt and it's available for 98 starcoins which is slightly more expensive, but it'll be worth it!  Plus it's available to everyone which obviously just makes it so much better :)  It's shown with yesterday's pick of the day, so if you're interested, just look at yesterday's post!  This shirt could be used so much- with a plain tee and jeans, being the main focus of the look, or it could be used as a jacket like with the example, just finishing off the outfit rather than being a focus.  What do think?  Comments?

Starplaza hits 200,000 likes! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi :)  As you've probably noticed by now, most of the features on stardoll have little buttons above or below for Facebook likes: well, the starplaza very recently hit 200,000 :)  Look:

See at the bottom?  I know this isn't really news and no-one cares, but I thought I'd mention it: I'm bored and trying to think of things to post :)

Chloe's Pick of the Day, 18-8-11 :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Ok, so taking a break from the Shake it Up store as it seems I have a small attraction it it.  Don't worry though, I'll do a pick from there tomorrow :)  (I can just see you facepalming now: if you're an old reader who's been with this blog for a while, you can relate this to my love for the Pretty n' Love store.)  Anyway, let's take a look at today's pick:

Yep, it's the Owl Tee from Killah, and it's absolutely STUNNING :)  But sadly, and it really does kill me to say this, it's only available for SuperStars, as it costs 15 stardollars.  *Sighs*  But nevermind, to all you SuperStars out there, I order you to go and buy this T-Shirt as it's gorgeous and if you have 15 stardollars to spend, honestly why not?  It's a great tee, and it'll finish off an outfit perfectly- especially if you feel your outfit is missing something.  Anyone lucky enough to own this tee?  Comments?

Chloe's Pick of the Day, 17-8-11 :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

And TODAY's pick is yet ANOTHER from the Shake it Up store!  Sorry, small obssession here :)  Don't worry, I'll take a break tomorrow :)  Ok, let's take a look at the pick!

Yep, similar to yesterday's pick, but for use in different outfits, it's the SIU White Torn Jeans!  Plus, these gorgeous jeans are only 80 starcoins, so available to absolutey everyone: and you could save up for these in only two days!  That's right, in two days they could be yours!  I really like them..  I have some major saving up to do, because I need to buy all of these picks!  Ah...  Your comments?

New Lady Gaga Video! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi :)  So, if you're a big Lady Gaga fan, you'll have heard her new song You and I in the last two months, because that's how long it's been out on YouTube officially :)  Or, you'll have known from a little earlier, as it was on her newest album.  Either way, her new video for the song You and I has been released...  Yesterday.  And it's already got hundreds of thousands of views, cos' her videos are always crazy..  Wanna see it?

Enjoy!

Chloe's Pick of the Day, 16-8-11 :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi :)  So, another pick from the Shake it Up store!!  Let's take a look at today's pick:

Yup, they're the gorgeous SIU Black Holey Tights.  They only cost 78 starcoins, so they're available to everyone!  Yay!  Personally though, I don't know why they call them tights..  They're footless, and look and work more like leggings.  78 starcoins would be a bit expensive for tights, but as they are kind of just leggings, I accept it :)  I also really like the holes in it.  It DOES look like tights in the wholes, though, so I'd give THAT to them..  What do you think?  You could use these with SO many different things :)

New Direction: Song! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi :)  Were you amoung the ones watching the X Factor last year?  Well, you must've spotted that boy band,  One Direction, eh?  Well, it seems appropriate that they're releasing a new music video for their new SONG this Friday, the day before the new series of X Factor returns!  Well, as you probably have heard Cher Lloyd's tragedy of a song (I decided not to bring it up on the blog), you might be expecting the One Direction boys' song to be just as bad, as it has a similar "5 Days To Go" thing going- but you can already listen to the song..  And to be honest?  It's actually not too bad?  I don't know, listen for yourself:  One Direction- What Makes You Beautiful.

Quite nice, eh?  Comments?

Purple Paradise! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Heya, so I was looking around the Starplaza, and I came across some gorgeous pieces..  and I felt a theme coming..  Purple!!  The colour's gorgeous and suits SO many different types of skin tones!  I spent a while making an outfit and then I did a little make-up to go with it :)  Ok, so I actually quite like it, and I'll give you all of the details of where to buy the stuff, and how to do the make-up too, cos' I'm nice like that- plus, that's what you're supposed to do on blogs..  Shut up Chloe.  ANYWAYS, here's the look!

To the left you can see the outfit :)  I'm actually REALLY happy with it :)  Ooh, and below you can see the make-up a little more close up:

What do you think?  I hope you like it: I tried quite hard with this.  Well, at least if you're in a Colour Comp, and you get purple, you're not completely screwed!  I would say when wearing purple though, if you're trying to make a look: never use the exact same shade for everything: have a range of shades that work well together- and throw in white or a different colour SOMEWHERE to keep you sane :)  Anyway, next I'll show you how to create this look :)

Ok, this is going to take a while :)  This is lots of effort, so I appreciate feedback xD  Ok, from RIO Girls you can buy nearly all of the clothes for this look: the Violet Cardigan [Which I am in LOVE with, by the way] will set you back by 13 stardollars, the Purple Strap Shirt [Which I used as a skirt: have they named this up wrong?!] costs 80 starcoins which is great (!), the Violet purse will cost you 50 starcoins and you'll have to spend 10 stardollars on the Dora Ribbon Tie Heels.  Next, you'll have to head over to Bizou to buy the Slouchy White Tank for a rediculous 120 starcoins, so if you have a plain white tee already, see how it looks.  Now, you just have to arrange your outfit on your doll: but I can trust you to do this yourself.

Now for the jewels- take a trip to Splendid and pick up a Flower w Pearls costing 50 starcoins, and use this as a brooch on your cardi.  Lastly, pick up a Rose Headband which'll cost you 6 stardollars- now put it on your head :)  Make-up time!  I kept this look really simple as the outfit is SO bold, but I still co-ordinated!  Ok, major close up time:

Right, this is everything you need:

You'll only need to go to DOT for all of this make-up.  Right, starting with eyes.  Take the Techno Goth Eyepencil, costing 7 stardollars and line the outside of the eyes, to halfway across, both at the top and bottom.  Next, take the White Collection Eyepencil costing 6 stardollars, and line the inside of the eyes, up to where the purple ends.  This is really basic, but it's all we need.  If you want, you can also use the Lengthening Mascara, costing 2 stardollars if you think your eyes look bare, but my me-doll's eyelashes are dark enough, so I left it- it does tend to cover up the eyeliner, so I wouldn't recommend it.  Now, finish the look with a layer of Sunset Gold Lipstick, which you'll have to pay 8 stardollars for: this is my absolute favourite lipstick: it'll finish the look and keep it simple, not distracting from the eyes or the general look.

I hope you like it!  What do you think?  Feel free to comment :)

Sea of Stars New Nail Polish :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

Hi :)  So, quickly, just a minute ago I spotted this advert on the first page:

After clicking on it, I found this:

A whole new range!  Also, the light blue polish with the royalty sign on is for 0 stardollars but I think it's only available to Royalty members.  I know I can't buy any of it, but the I actually quite like the new range, and it's all in celebration of the Sea of Stars story!  Woah that's a mouthful...  Anyway, what do you think?  Sorry this is a quick post, I've got to go so no more blogging today!  Comments?

The X-Factor Returns! :)

Written by xStarxStruckx

I don't know about you, but I usually watch the X Factor, because I literally have nothing better to do with my life.  Well, if you're like me or you actually like the X Factor, you'll be excited to know that it returns THIS Saturday, August 20 at 8pm.  (On ITV as usual I'm sure).  If you're the same as me, you'll be a little more than cheesed off to know that Simon Cowell, Cheryl Cole and Danni Minogue will not be joining the panel, but Louis freaking Walsh still will be -.- which obviously pleases me.  Instead, there will be three new judges, whose X Factor photos have been released (All photos © ITV).  Take a look:

Tulisa Contostavlos.

 Kelly Rowland.

Gary Barlow.

And I guess you may want to see Louis Walsh's photo?  Here:

 

There's also some rumour going round that Rihanna's going to pop up at Boot Camp, and maybe sing in front of the contestants.  Comments?  What do you think about all of this?
