Wear It All Challenge: Printeresting

I've always liked this... whatever this is - Stardoll call it a blouse but it's way too long. May be a tunic or even a dress (though it's too short to be a decent one, anyway). I don't know! I've worn it only a several times since I first got it and no matter how much I liked it, it always left me uninspired. And, to be honest, the shape of the skirt is somewhat weird and unflattering.
So initially I had some trouble coming up with a way of styling it that would emphasize the lovely elements of it such as the print and the stunning sleeves but the lower part always seemed to draw the focus. It took me some time to find the perfect way to cover it all up because of the high waste of the "blouse" and finally I just dealt with using the belt.
The result is one of my all-time favourite outfits - the colours compliment each other to perfection, he look is sleek and elegant with a very discrete bohemian chic to it and it's just revealing enough to be sexy but not ostentatious.

OOTD: Printed Monochrome

So while I'm preparing my next haul (can you guess what it's gonna be?) I'd like to show you an outfit I created with one of my favourite pieces from the recent collections. I put together an all-black look underneath this lovely monochrome coat/cape and decided on bright red accents to contrast it - I've always liked bright accessories with black & white clothes, both on Stardoll and in real life. The entire look is very fitting for the season and I can't get over how much I like it!

OOTD: Burgundy Fall

I'd like to share a look I put together for Stardoll's Most Wanted Hot Buys poll. I had strong mixed feelings about purchasing that dress but I adore this outfit - the charcoal commitments the burgundy so well (it's a deeper and darker version of my beloved red and grey combo) and the gold details are consistent from head to toe. I love the black lining peaking underneath the dress's hem and at the neckline - it frames it so well. It was surprisingly easy to deal with the aspects of the dress I did not care about: the oversized coat covers its weird shape and the choker and belt hide the black fabric at the neck and waist.

OOTD: Immortal Beloved

This look came together so easily I just can't believe it. It was as if all the separate pieces were meant to be combined together. Even my doll's hair fits the concept perfectly and this background finishes everything off flawlessly. It's been a while since I've put together a gown, even as simple as this one, and I had forgotten how much fun it was! The white dress and the fair hair give me a really strong Ophelia vibe (all that's missing are the flowers from her hair but it would've been too much) but that cleavage reminds of a dress Cersei wore in A Storm of Swords (white, low-cut, wide sleeves with emeralds decorating the bodice and the sleeves). Anyway, it's not directly inspired by neither of them nor any other particular heroine.

Wear It All Challenge: Sunshine On Chrome

It's been a while since I've done a "Wear It All"  post and I thought it was about time for me to get back on track. As I've said before - it was incredibly hard to find good pictures of the first AmyClaire collection but I managed to dug up this awesome photo in hope to make up for the lack of full sized pic. Another thing I've said before (here) is how much I like the silhouette of this dress - the drapes of the fabric look so natural. Additionally, the colour is absolutely gorgeous - so bright and fresh.

I had this look on my mind ever since I bought this lovely jacket - its length matches the dress' waist so well and that bluish grey goes perfectly with the sunny dress. The blue strap heels peeking underneath the dress match the jacket rather well and the girly flower purse balances the edgier feeling of the jacket. I finished off with silver jewellery.

Wear It All Challenge: Juliet All Grown Up

I love the bottom part of this dress so much - the way it drapes, the slit, it's so perfect! It's a shame I can't find the original real life inspiration behind it. But I'm not done looking, I even asked  Ms.Brigitte to help me on that one, and if she can't find it, than no one can! You should all check the Inspired By section she has on Stardoll's Most Wanted.

This is yet another dress I only bought after seeing someone wearing it in a way so perfect it was beyond words. The said person was FashionMonarch, who has some amazing couture creations. Unfortunately she doesn't seem to have her look saved neither in her album nor in her photos so I can't show it to you, but you should check her out nonetheless. 

The outfit you see below is my take on the one I remember she wore around the last MSW - she used the same enlarged necklace to cover the top part of a lavish blouse she had crated. As far as I can remember her look was luxurious buy yet unrevealing, I on the other hand wanted to show off way more skin so instead of following the neckline of the choker I decided on a revealing cleavage and slashed sleeves.

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.
