Wear It All Challenge: Lemon and Lime


Here we are, in the yellow dresses section of my closet! It's a short one but I think it's going to be exiting. We're starting it off with a real brand dress by Miss Sixty. It's an OK piece in my opinion - the bottom part is beautifully draped, the colour is sunny and adorable but the straps are a bit weird but that could work for their advantage as they make for an interesting neck line. The waist may be a tad problematical as it kinda look like something a pregnant woman could wear but that's an easy thing to hide.  


I liked this outfit way better while I was putting it together than I do now. No idea way! The colour doesn't go all too well with my doll's completion, but I'm too lazy to change that at the moment.  I really, really wanted my first look to have something green in it because I do love the combination and I think it looks quite well here. The paler collar top also does a good job of covering the waist and it's colour compliments the bag and the bracelet. However there's something off with the whole outfit and I can't put my finger on it. Oh well, what can you do!?

Wear It All Challenge: Red Velvet


Remember how back in the fall/winter season of  2010 velvet was huge? I never adopted the trend in real life but this Nanette Lepore inspired dress caught my attention. I like the retro vibe and the dropped waist but the real version kind of reminds me of a curtain wrapped around the model. Stardoll tuned down the shine and I think that's the main reason I prefer their take of the dress.


I've said it before and I will probably say it a hundred times again in the course of this project but I can't help it - I love retro/ period looks. Given the huge cleavage this is more of a modern rehash. I love the burgundy and I build the colour scheme around it using darker tones for the shoes and the clutch and I decided on a white jewellery to contrast it.
