We Love... findurlove's fantastic idea!

We all know that bags aren't that pretty on Stardoll. They are pretty much black, brown, white or grey, and if they are, let's say, purple, they are often boring. But findurlove solved this problem:

She created this awesome tote by using the StarDesign Interior pillow, and then she put a random bag to create the handles! Genius!

Now you can create every bag pattern you like, from LV to animal print to fun quotes like findurlove's or Jessica Cushman's ("My other bag is Fendi", "Black is the new Black"), or get inspired and recreate a real-life bag from your favourite designer - Chanel, Prada Fairy Tote, etc! Or maybe, why not doing a print with your favourite artist on it? Or a map tote? The possibilities are endless!

But, how do you create the handle? It's easy! Just put one of your bags behind the pillow, or buy a Basics bag that matches the color of your StarDesigned tote!

I want to see your designs! Tell me if you made a StarDesign Interior Tote and I'll visit your suite, you might end up featured on the blog!

We Love... Striped Shades

Just like we told you yesterday, the Striped Shapes are here to cause major damages! Stylish Stardoll users were seen sporting them, but babuci1992, *hara-ken*, and biroi4itu_be got the cool look.

*hara-ken* looks parisian chic in this ensemble, but the shades gave it a summer-y feel to it. The pink details also pop in this black outfit. To get the look, buy the Markus Lupfer "Darling" Dress, the DKNY Runway Tights, and the black boots. Not superstar? Buy a black top, a black skirt, the Voile Tights, the boots, the shades and pink or red accesories, and you're ready to go! Outfit Highlight: making the color pink pop, and bringing a summery feel with them.

biroi4itu_be looks unique in this outfit, with those animal print tights and summer's it sunglasses. She wore a Candie's Dress, animal-print DIY tights, and a DKNY HeadBand. You can get the look by wearing some cool leggins or tights which stand out from your outfit, a Splendid headband, and of course, the sunglasses. Outfit Highlight: the mix of styles in just one outfit, from preppy to unique to summery. Loving the tights!

babuci1992 looks trendy and girly in her outfit, which has bows, daring cuts, and a pink, black and white mix. She wore the Bow Swimsuit, a vintage Surf Skirt, the DKNY Marina Print Bag, the ASOS Bow Necklace, and the LE Charm. How can you look like her? Grab the pink Striped Sunglasses, mix black & pink, add some bows here and there, and don't forget those "daring cuts"! Outfit Highlight: making black & pink look girly, summery and daring in a tasteful way.

We Love... Safety Pins and Flowers

Karl Lagerfeld's Sold-Out Creation for Fendi

Marc Jacobs's Latest Creation, The Safety Pin Stam

Just a few days ago DIY Boutique arrived into the StarPlaza, our virtual shopping heaven. With everyone drooling over its half-done, totally-fashionable pieces, those little accesories, the Safety Pins and the Roses, were almost not seen.

But Karl Lagerfeld and Marc Jacobs saw them months ago, and decided to make them have the biggest role into their creation: the Floral Box Clutch, Fendi's already sold-out piece of art, and the Safety Pin Stam, the bag which after years of reaching the it-bag status still keeps taking the center stage on socialites and celebrities' shoulders, with new designs, patterns and accesories everytime.

How to achieve the look? Well, simply buy those little wonders in the DIY boutique from $1 or $2 each and layer them over your handbag, or buy some beautiful flowers from the DIY Section in the Minishop like Nick told us. But not all of us are superstar: to get the Safety Pin, go to Evil Panda and buy it for $2. To get the Rose, you can send yourself a Pink Wrist Corsage $1 Non-Superstar Gift with a spare account and layer it over a clutch, or buy the Bouquet from Budding Love in the Minishop to get another color. If you find something else feel free to tell in the comments!

We Love... Blazers, Part II

The new Balmain HotBuys Blazer/Jacket is out now on the Shop, and already lots of users are sporting it with different looks: fakeshake3, starszn, we3forever, idilpekel585, and see_my_bling, whose look you can see above.

This jacket is more unique and difficult to recreate but I'm sure we all will be able to catch that rock'n'roll look Balmain is showing us. I said all of us? Yes, I did. I'm sure non-superstars will be able to get something similar and put some rock chic thing there!

Will you?

We Love... Blazers

[Picture from Stardoll's Most Wanted]

It's not difficult to see when a trend is coming to Stardoll: a high fashion inspired item is released, Stardoll's elite wears them, then everyone wears it too. Easy as pie!

That's exactly what happened with the Balmain white studded jacket. Members like undamyumbrellla (in picture), fakeshake3, filipinhamaria, Balenciaga, wylie1995 have theirs already, and I bet you too!

You can wear this beautiful jacket with everything, in every dress code and style - just dare to be different, or stay low-key classic if you want to! Everything's allowed in fashion (except lime green with beige)!

But this award-winning blazer is not the only one round the corner: you can buy the tie-die one, or if you're not superstar, there are plenty of options too - for example, the Stardoll's 3rd Birthday white bow one, or maybe making your own blazer on the Stardesign!

We Love... r1ma's designs

Let's face it: not everyone can design like r1ma does. From wonderful T-Shirts, Lady GaGa pillows, Madonna designs, collaborations with undamyumbrellla and chic dresses, she's got talent.


Lately, two of Stardoll's most fashionable, Undamyumbrella and fakeshake3, have been sporting r1ma's Lanvin T-Shirt. Oh, Lanvin. r1ma's take on Alber Elbaz's brand is perfect, from the face t-shirt to the animal print dress, and we couldn't ask more on a virtual world where some pay $40 for cutesy animals to Twilight designs (but, admit it- they are adorable).

The House of Holland T-Shirt fever is unrepeatable, but r1ma is very, very close - just go get your T-Shirt now before everyone has it!

We Love... is our new feature, one of my special surprises for 100 (104!) followers! What do you think about it? It won't feature designers only, but clothes, furniture, styles, etc.
