How-To Costume: Raven from DC Comics (5 different costumes!)

The program I normally use has broken somehow (Which makes sense, since my computer likes to flimmer red and cyan colours on the screen and is pretty much help together by duct -tape) so all the pictures were made in Paint, but I hope they're alright anyway ;)

Let's start off with a picture of my doll in her costume, side by side with 2 versions of Raven :)

Top Raven: A comic version
Bottom Raven: From the TV'show Teen Titans

Besides the fact that I has to use a different nuance of purple (I wanted the cape to match), I think it went quite well :)

The items I used:

So most of the items I used to make my costume are no longer available to get (some are in the Bazar though but hard to find)..
I used some black items to make the back-side of the cape, any black items can be used, I reccomend wide skirts and dresses or bags. I also used a purple item to make the collar, what type of item it is doesn't matter, as long as it matches in colour :)

Ladydiver's Make-Up

The red stone in Ravens forehead is an essential part of her look and can easily be made using some small red jewlery-items, I used roses.
Raven's make-up is very plain with some dark eyes. I've gived her some long lashes because that is what I prefer :)
Ravens hair in Teen Titans is shoulderlength, but it is also often longer tha that, so there are many hairstyles to choose from.


SO I've put together FOUR (4) different costumes all available in the StarPlaza
I've done 2 using both Stardollars and Starcoins and 2 only using Starcoins.
There's a purple version and a black version of each, since Raven's clothes at times is black instead of purple.

Stardollars AND Starcoins

Starcoins only

I've chosen the items which I think were best, but there are plenty more to choose from in th eStarPlaza, there are for example a LOT or long black boots, so there are many more ways to make the costumes :)
Mix and match the items to find your very own combination which you like.

Got any quesitons?
Got any costume-suggestions?
Want to model a How-To Costume (the bazar part)?

Let me know! I can be contacted on Stardoll or in the comments of this post

Voting with Ladydiver #1 Prince and Princess

I've decided to try something new, I don't know if it'll be something I do again, but I wanted to try it.

Because I'm tired of the winners of The Vote more often than not, not following the theme AND users not even trying to follow the theme which results in me skipping a lot of pictures and spending far too much time on voting, I decided to make this video.

In the video, I start off by viewing yesterdays winners (Well, Saturdays winners, since I recorded yesterday), seeing if they followed the theme. 

After that I vote, offcourse it has been sped up, since it took me TWENTY (20) MINUTES to vote, where I only voted for the ones I thought followed the theme a little bit.
Twenty minutes is far too much time in my oppinion.

In the end, I give a small tip, regarding the next days theme. I probably should've thought that more through, since next day is today.. And people won't be able to use that tip now.. BUT if I make more videos, I'll be sure to do it with a later day, not the day after..

Anyway, hope you enjoy this? Or something.. Put some music on before you watch it, it can seem a bit long if you don't, though it's not long at all!


Update: Turns out, the winner of the Prince and Princess, actully was someone I voted for, what are the odds? :) I voted for none of the others though o.o

SC Only Outfits: Bags as Tops

using bags as tops on SD is nothing new, at times bags can be used as skirts as well.. So I've found 2 begs from the Plaza, which I think could make nice tops and made some outfits with them.

Bags for tops usually work best, if your doll has long hair, or atleast shoulder-length hair, to hide the bag-straps.

Enjoy!


Both outfits are quite cheap and would take approximately a week to get if you earn 60 SC's a day.
Offcourse you can always match the bags up with other bottom-wears and acessories, with the blue bag I do recomment always wearing a jacket or vest on top of it.

How-To Costume: Power Puff Girls

So, I got this brilliant idea, whilst reading about some boring biochemistry stuff for my exam, that I should do the Power Puff Girls! And I thought it would be a piece og cake, since they're so simple.
I mean, look at them; one-coloured simple dresses, a black belt, white stocking and black shoes, how hard can could it be?


I was wrong, it took me hours and I'm still not quite happy with any of the outcomes for Buttercup (green) and Blossoms (pink) aren't quite perfect either.

Anyway, I started as I always do, when I make my How-To Costumes, with looking in my own closet and here are the stylings I was able to make, including hair and make-up.
Most items om these pictures, are no longer available in StarPlaza.

Blossom

Bubbles

Buttercup

So I quess, when you put them beside each other, it's (sorta) easy to see who they are :)

After these, I went to the StarPlaza, hoping to find items which would work much better. I somewhat succeded with them all, though there's always something off with them. But I did my best, so I hope you'll like these alternatives :)
All the items in these pictures are currently in the StarPlaza


Blossom 

Bubbles

Buttercup

Offcourse all items can be mixed and matched, if you for example prefer one belt over the other, or think some shoes are just prettiest :)

Anyway, hope you likes this sorta-failed How-To Costume xD
I promise it'll be better next time, I juat had to publish this no matter what, because the Power Puff Girls are a big part of my childhood and it was fun re-creating them ^^

Starcoins outfit no. 64: Asian Inspiration

Inspiered by the currently running Super Hero competition in my club (LadydiverStyles, everyone is welcome to join the competition!), I wanted to do an asian inspiered superhero.
A young girl who avenges.. Something, and therefor fights crime. Though she's no longer young she still sports the young, girly look. A feature missing would be her weapon, a katana (long, thin sword - Think Samurai Jack) but Stardoll is not a place for weapons, so she got a cute little bag instead ;)

I've always been a fan of the User-Made Wild Candy items (Stardoll once held a design competition and the winners had their designs made and sold in Wild Candy! You can still get them), though I've never found a good way to use most of them, this time was en exception. The "sleeves" and underskirt is a one of the skirts and the floral print was perfect for this look :)

Ok I'll stop talking now, just look and enjoy!


I'm aware that this outfit is expensive, it's mainly due to the big amount of skirts and capes, making the sleeves and underskirts. These can easily be replaced by something cheaper if needed, or something in a different style (it you for example like blue, you can use blue items instead)

Hope you like it, over and out -

P.S if you have any ideas or wish to get help with making an Starcoin Only outfit, feel free to contact me on Stardoll and I'll help you :)

Sharp and Soft Fiery Top (Top Design by Ladydiver)

I was just messing around (It's almost 2 in the night, and I should go to bed) and I ended up making this lovely design :)

It started just being, because I was bored, a splish-splash of weird things on the Design, but I think it ended up quite well :)

These are tops with the design on it, doesn't it look sorta cool? :D
I've decided to make it the "Special Prize" for my current competition in my club (A Super Hero Dress-Up Competition, go join it!)
So if you want one, but don't wanna make it yourself, you can join my competition and you might just win one! :D Yaaaay..


If you're crafty and want to make it yourself, here's the design, you're welcome to be inspiered and copy, as long as you tell me about it (Because I want to see how other people make it! :D)

The BEST part is, that the tops are in SC's in the Barbie Design Studio!

Dress-Up Competition: Costume-theme

Edit: Because I am busy IRL when it's not weekend, I have extended the competition, so it's ends Saturday the 28th instead!

SO I just love making competitions!
This time it's gonna be a dress-up competition and the theme will be COSTUME.
I've chosen this theme, because in Denmark, it's very soon "Fastalavn" which is a bit like Halloween (But older and the costume does not have to be scary)

The THREE (3) winners will get a drawing of their doll in the costume :) To see examples of Drawings of Dolls I've made go check the tab "Drawings of Dolls".
They will also get a gift

I will be judeing the costume and the make-up! And the most creative will win!

You can make it on your own doll (Suite and beauty-parlor) OR in Starplaza OR on my doll with my items (The drawing will be with your doll in the costume, not mine)
Remember! Most creative wins! So if you use my doll, don't make a copy of one of my old costumes!

Best of luck!
For inspiration you can look at my "How-To Costumes" and album.
(Inspiration is ok but no copying ;)

WAYS TO ENTER:
No matter how you enter, you must write your name in a comment under here.
1) Dress up in the costume in your suite/becuty-parlor and tell me to look at your suite/beauty-parlor.
OR
2) Save costume AND make-up in your album and tell me to look at it.
OR
3) Post a link for a picture of the costume and Make-Up
(If you make it in the plaza you have to do number 3)
