Review: New Nelly collection ft. Leighton Meester + OOTD

Stardoll's new addition to the Nelly store in Starplaza is absolutely excellent. 
My picks would have to be the celfie beanie hat, medley jacket, and a select few of the dresses. As always this brand never disappoints, and it makes me really glad Stardoll puts a lot of effort into the graphic design aspect of the collection, it really well done.
Below you can view an outfit I've created featuring the new items.
Overall rating for this collection: 5/5

OOTD + 300 Stardoll members


Today Stardoll officially reached 300 million members, and to no avail released free items available fro purchase in the star plaza. Below you can view an outfit I created with said items. Putting this and the only other gift we all received being 300 star coins, Stardoll really dropped the bucket.Reacheing 300 million is quite the milestone, but the way Stardoll chose to go about celebrating it really disappointed me considering the last milestone was 250 mil, we received way better gifts. 
Wow, we hit 300 million members after 7 years… 
That is almost as much as there are people living in the USA (313 million in 2012). 
The reality is that on average there are only over 200k "active" users a month, and this milestone only counts the number of accounts created since 2004. So technically there are only hundreds of thousands to millions of active users on a weekly basis not really 300 million. A lot of people like to believe it's the fake accounts that make up most of the numbers, it does have some truth to it but in reality it's the number of accounts created in almost a decade of this site being launched.

Below you can view the gift-o-meter.


Above you can view two outfits I created with the couture items I received from the gift-o-meter. 
I waited for the NELLY items to be released so I could get gifts accordingly. I'm quite pleased with my purchase but overall feel cheated for somehow. This gift-o-meter along with the release of new nelly collection were as usual well executed star dollar wasting plans on Stardoll's behalf. I guess I'm just disappointed we didn't get a 300 million members sign and some spare star dollars wouldn't have hurt. 
Which leaves me wondering… were will Stardoll be in another 7 years? If my math is correct seven years from now it'll be 2021, which is a bit morbid for me to think about since the year sounds way to futuristic and out of reach. Will Stardoll have the same fate as other dress up sites by the likes of girlsense.com? Very unlikely, one thing is for sure, I hope to not be playing by then…

My Gift-o-meter rating: 4/5
Free items get a mediocre at best rating from me, you could have done way better Stardoll.
Just saying.

Blog y'all later.

300 million members campaign spoiler

Stardoll's latest spoiler implies a new campaign will be coming.
Hopefully this will be a campaign like no other considering how flaky the last ones were and hitting 300 million really is quite the milestone. 

This is one of the moments were I get nostalgic and look back at the last 7 years I've been a member… Will be updating in no time, as I assume I'll be in school when Stardoll finally reaches their 300 mill mark.

Nelly celebrates 10th year anniversary with new campaign

Stardoll's not so subtle latest spoiler, has gotten me exited for what's to come. 
Nelly is one of my favorite Stardoll stores, and to know that Leighton Meester is collaborating in a campaign is the cherry on top. I love her and the clothes featured on this ad. The campaign was shot in beautiful Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles for Nelly's Spring campaign 2014 which celebrates the company's 10th anniversary.

86th Academy Awards Best Dressed list inspires new Young Hollywood

A new Young Hollywood collection was released today, and at a glance, 
these items are as gorgeous as their inspiration! 

On Sunday night, those of us who tuned in for the annual Oscars awards ceremony, got to watch nominees by the likes of Jennifer Lawrence rocking her usual Dior uniform and tripped in the process, seriously tone it down on the alcohol homegirl. Along with Cate Blanchett and my personal favorites, Lupita Nyong'o and Jared Leto; all three snagged a trophy that not only recognized their subliminal talent, but a top spot at acclaimed best dressers of the red carpet in my opinion. 
Lupita Nyong'o custom made Prada gown
I rooted for Lupita and Jared all the way, such well deserved wins! It's sad to see such decorated nominees by the likes of Leo Di Caprio loose again, but hey it took Daniel Day Lewis a few losses in order to win too! Now, to give you all what you are actually here for here is a (biased) 
list that highlights some of the best or worst looks of the event…
