Hello dollies.
So sorry for my delay of reviewing things, I am pretty busy with finals and such recently before I am finally off for summer. I know, I know, it's totally sucks when your friends are already enjoying the sun while I am still stuck here with exams :( Anyway to cut things short and straight to the point, new tribute store opened up this time, and it's a tribute store based on the famous shoes designer, Nicholas Kirkwood. Personally, I was quite surprised to see Stardoll's trying to open up a shoes store, I mean...they are shoes, how they're gonna do that? I was pretty excited really, and it's quite creative of them to actually think about it, the Stardoll team surely had really nice thinking over this one.
Anyhoo, as Nicholas Kirkwood is a SHOES designer, I never expected of them to have some clothes in it, but again, surprisingly, together with the shoes there are some pretty nice clothes and accessories. Compared to Anna Sui's, I gotta say this one is graphically well made. It reminds me of the latest (UPDATE:not anymore) Antidote store, which I think was so amazing with quirky items and bright colourings.
Well let's start with my choices for the clothes, which I managed to grab a few.
1. Glass Spikes Necklace - 5sd
2. Studs Yellow Jacket - 25sd
3. Dazzle Sheen Top - 15sd
4. Lion Face Top - 14sd
5. Spike Heart Shades - 6sd
I just love my Top 3 items, although I know they are pretty generic. There is one similar necklace sold in starcoins called Tadpole Galaxy Necklace in Fallen Angel store, the sheen top reminds me of the top from 7th LE collection, and I am pretty sure I saw the Studded Jacket somewhere that I couldn't recall. But still, I bought them because I think these items are very "me", and also it's because I dont own any of the items I mentioned before (except for the galaxy necklace) :(
Now let's get onto the shoes, which are the main focus of the whole store. Surprise surprise, for the one who is not a shoe-person, I absolutely love them! I am very glad with Stardoll, Nicholas Kirkwood is an amazing shoes designer and gladly, it shows. Stardoll has really made such an amazing job in recreating those shoes from RL version. The shoes maybe are not everyone's cup of tea, but I personally liked it. They are quite edgy, and considering that is what I am trying to do with my medoll lately, I just knew that I have to snap them up.
some shoes that I snapped up first :) |
