StarDesign @ Stardoll

Image
Remember earlier in the month I said when I had more time I'd tell you about the wonderful design feature at Stardoll ? Well here goes... As I've said, you can buy clothes for your MeDoll at Stardoll in the StarPlaza shop. Stardoll recently added a new feature where you can use shapes and patterns to create your own designs. I don't think anyone at Stardoll could guess just how creative their members would be. I've been amazed by the work of some of the budding designers there. You start with the screen above and work within the middle section. You can choose 3 base templates and each has 2 pattern designs. You add shapes from the top of the page and can change all the colours using the colour book to the left. You can also rotate items as well as changing their size and making thm transparent. There are 4 fabrics (cotton, knitted, jeans and silk) to use. The images below may help you visualise these instructions. Add shapes to the base template (here it's a triangl...

Irregular Choice Autumn/Winter 2008

Image
I'm very, very excited by the new A/W collection from Irregular Choice . The above image is a still of the preview pictures from the IC homepage. There are lots of shoe-boots and a real textural feel with suede, patent, fringing and buttons. After a so-so S/S range (in my opinion), it's good to see IC back to form and I'm sure I'll be spending a lot of money on them over the next few months. Initial stock of the new range is expected tomorrow at IC. Below image is Audrina. Phutwear already have a few styles on their site (below) and through their eBay shop. High Horses is a court shoe with detachable 'leg' to transform into a boot, gorgeous! Alphabite (black suede, not shown) is a cute lace-up shoe-boot as is the glorious patent Flick Flack. I'm also loving the new rocket soles and matching boxes.

Heidi Seeker Fawn Bag

Head over to Heidi Seeker to see the wonderful new woodland animals collection. I love the fawn bag (£12) which is covered in pearls, charms and badges. There's also necklaces (£8) and jumpers (£32) too! Plus there's a free felt pin with all orders over £20.

The return of the UD lipstick

Image
Browsing the US Urban Decay site a couple of months ago I spotted these glorious lipsticks. Apparently available in the UK next month, I'm really pleased to see the return of the UD lipstick. I was a fan of the old style metal containers and some of the colours were really pretty. UD have outdone themselves with the new cute, punky packaging this time though. A metallic purple tube with see-through decorated lid and little dagger adorning the base. There are several finishes and the wonderful KarlaSugar has swatched them for you. So click to see her images and decide which colour you want before they even hit our stores!

You gotta have Faith

Ok, these may possibly be the cutest boots I've ever seen (above), I'm not kidding. They have me all in a tizz, with their cute rounded cut, frill trim and bow (so next season). They are just adorable, shame about the ugly name 'Stogo'. Also available in black (I prefer the grey) they cost £80. Also catching my eye are these Gwyneth Paltrow-esque gold glads (above), 'Labetty' £70 and these peep-toe 'Sunly' boots (below, also available in black), £85. I also love this kitsch little bag £30, very cute. Go Faith !
