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.

Wear It All Challenge: A Wish for Summer


Anyone who has been following this blog know how much trouble I have with these dresses - I love the shape but they are way too short for my taste and that's it. So this time around I decided to use them as a resort where. After all, the only place where I could wear such a short dress is at the beach. I decided to continue the boho-look from my previous Wear It All post with earthy tones and exotic prints.

Wear It All Challenge: Striped



Lately I have discovered a new found love for full skirts and this very old Hot Buy dress, inspired by Hot Kiss is exactly what I'm all about. The length, the print and the colours all compliment each other perfectly and the bow at the waist is an adorable detail.


The grey stripes inspired me to further use the same colour in the rest of the outfit and I'm very happy with the result. It's simple and effortless and the bright colour is so appropriate for the upcoming spring.

Wear It All Challenge: Bohemian Sheer


This dress gave me a hard time, not only because I was uninspired styling it but I also had incredibly hard time failing to find the real-life inspiration behind it. I found a couple of similar once but nothing as close enough to put here. 
I bought it a few years ago after I saw an amazing outfit on a doll I admire. However pandorascloset's style is very different from my own and from me it did not seem right to make an edgy look with such a romantic piece. Instead, I went for a bohemian style based on pastels. I was very pleased to put that lovely vest to use.

Wear It All Challange: Formal Polka

I had this post collecting virtual dust as a draft for so long I actually had to re-do it a few weeks ago because I could not recognize my medoll. :D
The dress, inspired by Emanuel Ungarois very interesting and I love the way the top part fits on my doll - it's so laid back and relaxed. I'm actually very happy that Stardoll decided to remove the lower pockets - it looks way more elegant that way. However, it is not very practical and it does not offer a lot of space for creativity.


As I said, the outfit is fairly simple, basic black accessories (I love these shoes - classic pumps with a modern twist).  The jacket is the only other piece of clothing I was able to add without overdoing it but I still like it better without it.

Wear It All Challenge: The Socialite

I loved the collection this dress came from. It had a very distinct street style socialite vibe to it, perfectly balancing casual and formal pieces with this dress being the most extravagant item. It's based on a Katie Ermilio's dress that Olivia Palermo wore last year at the New Yorkers For Children charity Annual Spring Dinner Dance back in 2013. It's quite an impractical but such a lovely piece! Stardoll's designers had managed to emulate the silky texture perfectly and to my great joy, they have decided to remove the black bows decorating the shoulders of the original.


I really liked the way the purple of the shoes contrasts the yellow dress but for my own outfit I decided on black and white accessories. I just love the way the monochrome details pop against the bright yellow. I kept the Zara inspired belt because it looks amazing with the dress (and because I couldn't find a b&w one to match the dress' waistline) and I finished the look with a chain-like necklace at the collar.

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: The Hidden Slit


Yet another dress I never thought I would buy. The graphic is a bit flat and the top part is downright off-putting. I was so focused on that I never gave it second glance. That is until I saw someone somewhere wearing a gorgeous yellow maxi skirt with a hardly visible slit - it was so beautiful - translucent, elegant and oh-so-bright! Imagine my surprise when I realised that was the same ugly MM dress. Still, I was reluctant to buy it - I already had two yellow maxi dresses, both of which with better quality graphics. In the end what really sold it for me was the slit - I've said before how much I like slitted skirts and dresses - they are sexy but stylish and not too revealing and that's hard not to love. 
Styling it was also surprisingly easy - the outfit came together on it's own. The dark blue jacket looks stunning against the colour of the dress, the plain shirt adds for a more casual look and the straps of the sandals make for a great accent.

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!?
