Styles I'm LOVING



Lately I've been obsessed with short, tight, long sleeved dresses like the ones picture at the bottom. I'm also love, love, loving jumbles of necklaces put together, also pictured below. For long sleeved dresses, don't go with a solid neon color, it's tacky. Go with a solid/combo of soft, pastel colors. If you're feeling fashionable, colorblock is in style right now. For the jumbled necklaces, don't use too much/all gold necklaces. Too much gold and you'll look like Snoop Dogg. Bling-bling! What trends are you loving right now?

Is Stardoll Trying to Make Kids Feel Bad? ISDW Investigates

You're browsing a club's discussion topics, and you notice that have the users half golden stars next to their names. You're looking for a new outfit, and you notice all the cute clothes have the same golden star. When you're a young kid, this makes you jealous. Golden stars symbolize good deeds and positive things, you want a star next to your name. Even the label SUPERSTAR sounds great! But it's going to take some $$$ to get there.

Next time you log on, notice that most teenagers are not paying members. Is this because they are smart enough to say no? Personally, I am a teenager and I do not pay for stardoll anymore. I got my account (birdy44) in 2006 and used to pay monthly for my membership, but I look back now and laugh.

Do you think the way Stardoll drags users in with superstar benefits is wrong or OK? Stardoll has to make money somehow, to keep the site up and make a profit, but they get a lot of cash from advertising and I think the extra push to get paying users is unnecessary, though I am glad that you at least get a basic membership for free.

New Stardoll Currency: Starcoins


Above is the coin converter, click to enlarge.


Stardoll has added a new type of currency: Starcoins. The change in currency makes it so Stardollars are for superstars only, and Starcoins are for non-superstars. Ex-superstars can convert their stardollars to starcoins here: http://www.stardoll.com/en/account/index.php?show=earnStarcoins
1 stardollar is equal to 10 starcoins. You can earn 40 a day, similar to the previous 5 stardollars a day in the way that you can't buy much with them since most things available cost 30+ Starcoins.

Basically, stardoll is trying to make it look like superstars get things for a cheaper price.
Below are some examples of how much higher the prices for starcoins look.

Topic of the day in FC? Racism.


Look at all the topics that say races in the titles, or say something about racism. Topic of the day, for sure.

Everyone has strong opinions on racism and racist jokes. This is one of the many topics in FC spark topics that cause clashing of views. This discussion didn't last long, since most of us agree that racism is wrong, but it was still top on the discussion board. Everyone likes a good joke, but when it crosses the line, it stops being funny and takes a turn for the worst. In the end, the only ones who approved of the overly racist jokes were unseen and on fake accounts.

Major Sale. MKA RC, LE, HOTBUYS, DKNY, INSPIRED BY & RARES


At my suite (birdy44)
Prices are a bit high, but I'm willing to lower them to a reasonable amount. I'm obviously not going to sell my Faith Hill dress or MKA RC olsen scarf for 15sd.
Bid in my guestbook, sale of the century!
Sorry to advertise on here, I know it's unprofesh.

NEW LE DECOR LINE!



New LE decor! Couches, lamps and chairs galore!
There's still some items left, but there won't be for long so go grab yourself a high-fashion couch! The store consists of 4 rooms displaying the merchandise. I don't want to give too much away, but below is room #1 of the the four:

Personally, I won't be buying much of the decor, if any because I'd much rather pay 200sd on a LE dress to show off rather than a lamp.

XO.

New Layout



I posted earlier about the new banner (go check it out and vote which banner is your favorite). Since then I've changed that whole layout of the blog, and I want to know what you think, and if you've even noticed. I changed the positions of the widgets, deleted the background music, and the banner thing that said "WELCOME TO MY BLOG," changed the background color and fonts, and increased the banner size. I hope you like it! :)

New Stardoll VS. Old Stardoll

Old Stardoll:

New Stardoll:


Throughout 2010 and 2011 Stardoll has made random changes that members have been having a rough time adjusting to. Ever since Stardoll began, we saw the website a certain way and got used to where everything was. The website layout wasn't the only thing they mixed up earlier this year, they left millions of member's heads spinning. Months later, we've become used to the new website and complaints have died down, but we still, every now and then, have our "I HATE THIS" moments. :)

Which layout do you prefer? Comment your answer, and if you have any questions related to the photos.

Animal-Lovers is Officially Dead.




Animal-Lovers discussion board:

The club that was once number one has officially ended it's time on stardoll. I left stardoll while A-L was still full of fun, and I came back to what felt like a ghost town. If you're in the position I was in, looking for friends and wondering what happened, you'll find the answers in the new FashionClub. Many A-Lers, including myself have joined the new FC and it's a much more reliable source of fun than what A-L has become. If you go to A-L you'll find empty topics and old A-Lers mourning the club that they once loved. What happened was that an FCer made the new A-L after one was deleted, and she was bad, and so everyone ditched.
