Dolls!!!
After many, many months of waiting I finally have a post for you! Dolls!! I had a lot of fun going around trying to find people to post on here again. It brought back some great memories... I mean, it's how I met most of you! I just want to say thank you so much for everyone hanging around and being supportive during the blogs down time. Everyone's kind words (to me and about the blog) encouraged me to get it up again. I made so many wonderful friends from it, and I'm glad the blog can bring some of you together. Now to the dolls!
Acidbunny has been able to mix "Pretty in Pink" and edgy seamlessly. The oversized bow, mid length dress, and bracelets keep the look feminine. The studded clutch, textured black sleeves on the dress, and strappy spiked heels take this look to the next level. What keeps this look from becoming too overwhelming is her detail to proportion. The mid-thigh length of the dress evens out the almost elbow lengthed sleeves. Pairing an oversized bow was the perfect choice with a smaller clutch, and by choosing a shoe that came up right past the ankle, the look doesn't reveal too much leg. Also the balance of smooth materials with textural ones evens out the look to make it more aesthetically pleasing. Great job Acidbunny!
What she's wearing:
Diane von Furstenberg Oversized Bow
Young Hollywood Chloe Fringe Colorblock Dress
Bonjour Bizou Hot Buys Wedge Heels
Bonjour Bizou Studded Lips Clutch
Young Hollywood Daphne Diamante Bracelets
FlaviaLucini has managed to make neutral tones, anything but boring! He has made his doll's look interesting by using both warm and cool tones in the neutral pallet. The necklace, cardigan, and shoes are all warmer with yellow/orange undertones, while the leggings, purse, and white shirt have blue undertones. Orange and blue are complimentary colors, making his whole outfit pleasing to the eye. He has also balanced textures. Straight texture in the cardigan evens out the rounded texture of the leggings and necklace. Oh and did I mention the slouchy, oversized cardigan with skin tight leggings and minimal shoes? Genius! With this combination of texture, color, and size, FlaviaLucini has a pulled off a great look!
What FlaviaLucini is wearing:
Decades 1920's Coat
Young Hollywood Selena at Nickelodeon Top
Rio Gold Paisley Print Leggings
Young Hollywood Mary Kate Box Purse
Young Hollywood Ashley Court Shoes
Viole Gold Bubble Necklace
A_horror has successfully mixed subtlety with baby doll chic in this great look. I say baby doll due to the cute sleeveless, collared shirt on top. It gives the outfit a baby doll look as well with the length and baggyness of it. The subtlety comes from tiny details that really pull the outfit together, but first this was done by "blacking" out the extra. Her legs and arms are completely covered by black, and to my surprise, layered in black. She had on at least four shirts to get this look! The tiny details come from the layered in geometric bracelet as well as the two stripes on the top layer of tights. The shoes are also layered... can I say we might have a new layering queen? Keeping the colors in same general tone also ties the whole outfit together!

Stardoll Babydoll Tunic

Sillivanilli looks super glamorous in red! She is able to keep the outfit looking casual though through the simplicity of the look. The puffy pioneer inspired sleeves mixed with the scarf create a heavier top, but the clean legs along with shoes that blend in with her skin balance this out. The accessories also are concentrated in the same area drawing the eye up to focus on her face. What doll doesn't want the viewer to see her and not just her clothes? The bright red purse highlights the bright red tones through the dress which is what makes this casual outfit have a touch of glamour. Great job sillivanilli!
What she's wearing:
Stardoll Stardoll dress
Bonjour Bizou Glove Belt

Stardoll Red Quilted Purse

Here we have morgana.s67 looking ever so blue... but in a very good way! She is able to keep the whole outfit looking cohesive by having varying shades of blue all within the same tone. They are all red based blues which is also why she was able to add in a few purple elements. The skull shirt blends in seamlessly due to the fact that it contains all of the shades of blue morgana.s67 has used in this outfit. Although the skirt is textured, it is the layering that ties this outfit (besides the color) together. A shirt layered with an open sweater and necklace, a skirt layered by a belt and a purse, and high heels layered with socks. Morgana.s67 is looking very cool in this ^-^

Tealsmoke pulls off her signature 50's inspired look once again in a great yellow and black number... but far from looking like a bee! The yellow and black really compliment each other due to fact that it is a more dull yellow and not as abrasive on the eyes. By using all black elements, it makes the black shapes on the dress cohesive with them, while making the yellow take the spotlight. She has added a bit of whimsy to the whole outfit with the fun keyboard clutch and oversized hat. This clutch help keeps the outfit from looking stuck in the past, by mixing up the classic look. The hat throws in a fun element of proportion. Fabulous job Tealsmoke... especially considering she designed the dress!

Young Hollywood Piano Key Star Clutch

Yukitarea has created a look that teeters on the 90s grudge look, yet is still sophisticated. Both the top and dress mimic each other's length. Where the sleeves hit the arm it is around the same area of the leg the bottom of the dress rests. This keeps the outfit looking uniform. She has also layered accessories (love the camera!!) that create length with a long, clean dress. While this carries the eye down ward, she broke up the line with a belt and the cropped top. These both break up the path with horizontal lines. The chunky shoes add some "fatness" to the look making it much more interesting. Super job yukitarea!
What yukitarea is wearing:
Bonjour Bizou Square Draped Crop Blouse
Young Hollywood Ashley Teal Sheath Dress
PIX CameraBag BlackSatin
Archive All Over Floral Purse
Windows on the World Shoes Inspired By Carin Wester
Bonjour Bizou Belt
Bonjour Bizou Clock Locket Necklace
Fallen Angel Cross Necklace
Caterpix2 has created a very chic, bohemian look. She has accomplished this by playing with proportion in her outfit. Pairing the slouchy, oversized long sleeved top with just tights compliments the different sizes involved. The textures also add to this opposition with the very smooth and plain shirt, with the highly juxtaposed texture of the tights. Although there are really only two main articles of clothing, by using this tactic of proportion as well as contrasting textures, she keeps our eyes wondering what is next. Her outfit really fits the "opposites attract" saying! Do you know what keeps everything looking cohesive? The muted colors mixed black accessories!
What she is wearing:
Bonjour Bizou Layered Crew Neck Sweater
Woven Tights
Spring Surprise Peep Toe Pumps
Bouquet of Colorful Roses
Black Disc Earrings
Thin Headband
