So Who Did Get the Outfit that Cat Sent?

Racquel, did!  She is one of the few dolls I have that could actually get her hips into that skirt.  But I think she wears it well.  These photos are being taken in her daughter, Nichelle's, unfinished nursey.


This is the cute outfit that Cat from A Doll Affinity sent to my dollies. It came with a pretty lace top,  a leopard print mini skirt, a purse and a pair of shoes.

So to honor the 100 StarDollar gift card that we also received, Racquel decided to put on a little fashion show using her new pieces.  We will start with the lacy top.  This is a nice casual look featuring gold lame cropped pants and a leather jacket.

For a more dressy look, she paired the top with a long A-line skirt. 

Another casual look with a denim skirt and jacket.

Whew, I sure am glad she put the baby in the crib, before she fell off the table.  This is a nice look for work.  The top is paired with a wrap skirt and a fur lined collar jacket.

Here is another look.

I love this look. The top and wrap skirt are paired with a nice white linen jacket.  In the perfect world she would have changed her copper earrings and put on some different shoes.  Next time.

Same look, a little less dressy with a different necklace.

Now on to the skirt.  Normally, I wouldn't have paired this top with this skirt, but since I've been playing on Stardoll, I am slowly venturing out of my little narrow fashion box and trying different things.

I really love it with the little learher jacket. A nice casual look.

Paired with a beige and white top gives is a slightly dressier look.

One more casual look.

The final look is again something I probably never would have done before Stardoll on-line.  Now I am liable to throw anything together. I do like this one, though.  It could defnitely use a belt. I don't own too many of those...yet.

After doing this post, I can think one of two things.  "I am spending way too much time on Stardolls", OR "Boy that time I am spending on Stardolls is really paying off".  Just the fact that I intentionally changed this doll's clothes this many times in such a short period of time is nothing short of a miracle.  And on top of that, I put her hair up, too. (That only took 3 seconds though.  Another incredible feat for me).  Miracles do happen.  Hope you enjoyed our little fashion show.  Thanks again Cat!

  5. Vita Plastica, Frannie, and Georgia Girl - Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the show.

    Dollz4Moi - Thanks. I am actually enjoying redressing the dolls now. It used to be a chore. Now it's a little more fun. I just have to get some more accessories like belts and scarves. I'm sure Cat probably never imagined I would come up with all those outfits using that cute top and adorable skirt.

  6. Oh I really loved seeing all of your outfit combinations! It was like seeing one of your Stardoll posts. And I really did not think you would find those pieces as useful as you did. But, I am happy to see the end results! Love the last outfit! It's good to branch out and take fashion risks. Some surprising things can look great. :)

  7. Cat - Thanks. I've always been fashion challenged, so I was happy to be able to transform those pieces into so many different outfits. Racquel got a whole new wardrobe out the deal.

  8. Wow, she looks fabulous! You are really tempting me to buy this girl, and I wasn't interested before. You have some great combinations, and the skirt and lace top sent to you by Cat are just toooooooo cute!!!

    Stardoll is a great tool. It reminds me of the movie Clueless, when Alicia Sylverstone would use her computer program to coordinate her outfit for the day.

    Very cool! :)

  9. Tracy - Thanks. I wasn't trying to enable you. I really have to get Racquel back in the mix. If I would just stop spending her husband's body money. Now I may have to invest in a couple of really cute handbags!
