SC-only outfit 5/7-16

Hi dollies, here's another SC-only outfit

This is a beachy outfit where I've made a top to match the Cannes Bikini Bottoms. The matching top for the Cannes Bikini Bottom is a SD-item.
Therefore I decided to make an alternative top for the bikini bottom, using two basic SC bras.

I hope you like it.

Starcoin-only-outfit 3/7-16

Wow it's been a long time since I've been blogging here..

But it's also been a long time since I've been playing on SD, so it makes sense.

"Luckily" I'm doing a project at my university, so I need to procrastinate once in a while. Stardoll is the perfect solution for procrastinating. 

Anyway, since I've been gone there's been a few SC-items released. I'll try to make outfits using these items in the next few days. Starting with the lovely Embelished Lux Hijab.

I really love that Stardoll has made a few hijabs and other alike items. They're pretty cool and makes it easier for some users to express their culture.

Anyway, since the prices of everything on SD is going up all the time, the outfit is a bit expensive. Hope you like it though.

Make your choice Stardoll

I went to delete some hair-design stuff today and noticed something silly..

Notice the different choices I have.. One of them stands out..

"slet" is the Danish word for "delete", and there is it, having fun with three English words.

I play Stardoll on the Danish site/mode and lately I've been noticeing how more some words, tabs and more, have gotten English words.

Which is alright to some extend, considering that they're fired most of their national dolls.

But seriously? When you have to make a choice between four options, they shoud be in the same language..

In the old hair-design-studio it was all in Danish, so you aldrady have the words in your database Stardoll..

Just something silly I noticed today..

Saving up and challengeing yourself

Hi Dollies

I'm currently in the dire process of "Saving up on Stardoll"

It's much harder than you'd think, but I really wish to save up for a Luxury Suite , so that I may get an achievement and y'know, more (and bigger) rooms :D

I'm about 4/5 of the way there now..

It's getting reeeeeeally hard not to spend those damn SD's on jewlery and hair and stuff..

And I'm 90% sure, that had the Limited Re-Edition not been SS only, I'd be quite a bit porrer right now..

...

I should get back to studying again, that book on Evolution won't read itself..

...

On another note I'm thinking of challengeing myself  a bit (more).
I'm thinking of doing a month or so, where I dress my doll up as me.

My doll doesn't have the same clothes as me at all, so it'd be fun to see just how much (or little) we have in common.

Well, I do have an alternative style IRL (as others would describe it), but it is far from the same as my dolls.. Special.. Style..

Or maybe it'll turn out to be easy, since it would mostly be "basic" clothes, like pants, shirts and shoes?

Who knows, time will show - If I do decide to do it..

...

STUDY!

...

My doll had a little clash with some waves and lost all her lovely swim-wear..
Luckily some starfish (which are not actully fish, but echinoderms..) were there to help her out..
Btw an SC-only Outfit ;D

The ungratefull kids these days

Hi dollies, I'm afraid that I need to rage a bit.

As you're all well aware I've got a club on Stardoll called LadydiverStyles. It mostly persists of me, making some small, fun competitions with small prizes - Because it's not about the prize but about the creativity and fun side and the challenge.

One of my newest competitions is a competition with the theme "rainbow" where you can make what ever entry you wish, as long as it is rainbow-themed.

As the days has gone by, some users have entered, for which I am glad because I love to see how other people will interpret my competitions and come up with amasing and different ideas :)

One user chose to copy another users idea, exactely.

This is the scenery by the first contestant, Ja-nni, (and therefore the original scenery and idea).

This is the scenery by the copy-cat. Notice that I am in no way attacking her person, but merely expressing my opponion on the act of copying another users' idea. This I find is my right, as it is my club and it is a competition, which I am hosting. If someone else had commented that, I would have accepted it aswell. It is not nice to copy others' ideas.

As I am a very forgiving person, I wrote a comment, that the copy-cat would be welcome to make a new entry, for she would have no chance of winning with an idea, which she had copied from another user.

This is the comment I left her. Should I say it myself, it's a neutral and fair comment.

As of now I would've expected her to reply something like "Oh sorry, I didn't know, I'll try and make a new entry" or "I will keep this entry"

But then today as I logg on to check on how things are going with LD (Ladydiver) as I do almost every day, I find this in my GB.

Offcourse I do my best to reply in a nice way, though I do not at all feel like being nice.

I gave the copy-cat a second chance, and this is the reply I get?

Offcourse I've replied to it, though SD-rules advise us not to reply to harrassing comment. I've only replied, because I still wish for her to understand, that I mean her no harm in any way.

- She is btw still welcome to make a new entry in my club.

The reasons why her name has not been blurred or anything from this post is:

1) It would be easy for any readers to find her anyway, since all this is still available in both my GB and club.

2) I don't have many readers anyway.

3) I'm not angry at her. This is not a hate-blog-post, this is a post of me expressing my oppinion on how ungratefull kids are these days.

Now, I'll get back to studying for my Evolutionary Biology exam.

- Ladydiver

If you think I should've handled this in some other way, please leave a comment on how you would've handled it in the commentssection of this post.

UPDATE: The comment has now been deleted from my GB. I did not delete it and the copy-cat has not visited me since I replied. Maybe SD has got a new feature, which automaticly deletes any comments, which has been reported?
Yes I did report her, as it is my duty to report anything which breaks the rules of SD.

When I'm not around..

.. And you just gotta have some new ideas for SC only outfits (Lol, thought it was a serious post? xD) you can check out my portefolio at my Stylist Studio :)

I mainly do SC-only outfits for my clients unless they ask me to "make it awesome no matter the price" - Which is the most awesome thing you can say to a stylist

- Ladydiver

P.S my exams are over soon and I'm very close to finishing a certain type of SD-videos.. CELEBRATIONS ARE NEAR!

In the mean time, here's a picture of some ears I made for nothing less than 4SD!

I'm gonna continue studying for that exam-thingy now..

OH AND DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT THE 5 COMPETITIONS IN MY CLUB

How I deal with spammers..

Mostly I, as everyone else, just ignore spammers.

But when I have the time and mental ressources I decide to have fun with it..

Today someone wrote me and I couldn't help myself but tease him/her a little bit xD

I copied his/her message and replaced the text with my own words
(I'm currently running some competitions in my club LadydiverStyles, so the topic was obvious)

This was hillarious to me, funny enough he/she did not reply to me afterwards? ;)

Spammers, if you can't handle a bit of spam yourself (Even if it's just me, talking back at you, having a laugh), then don't spam. And if you're tough and CAN handle it? Well don't anyway, spammers are annoying.

Spamming doesn't leave a good first impression, so if you want friends, spamming isn't the way to get them

- Ladydiver

And then there's me..

.. To be honest I WAS in the middle of changeing my outfit whilst I won this time..

I had just been Robin (Batmans sidekick - Why didn't I make a how-to for that costume?!) and was changing into some cyber-punk-metal-weird thing.. I love weird..

(Me on the bottom, 2nd from the left..)

 It's surpriginsly easy to win NCG of Denmark, so easy that at one point I decided that I wanted to win the 4th every time.. Which is why I've got 4 NCG dates dated to the 4th (check my pres).. I eventually forgot about this and messed it up..

UH BTW: there's currently 2 competition in my club LadydiverStyles and more will be added because it's COMPETITION MONTH in my vlub.. WUHU.. Srsly, it's fun! :D I'm in a screw-saving-up-sc's-I-want-fun-instead kind mood..

- Ladydiver

Something amazing has happened..

.. an angel has granted me a SS-membership :)

So, I'll be the worst ever SS you've ever seen, I'll be trying to sell my weird wig-designs for cheap prices and stuff xD Just because I can xD

I have no idea what to do with my new powers, it's kinda crazy :D

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

Small break

I'm gonna take a small break, untill I've finished my next exams in April :)

I might post one or two small things, but don't expect anything!

- Ladydiver

ladydiver and Iadydiver having a ball!

First of all, this is NOT edited in any way, you can go check it in my GB if you don't believe me xD

Second, damn I love it xD

Third, sorry I haven't posted for a while, lots of fantastic stuff going on IRL!

Donating/Free Jackets and Jumpsuits

So I'm bored and I don't have a lot to spend my SC's on these days, since Stardoll isn't releasing anything I find very nice and useable..

SO I've decided to give some free StarDesign jackets and jumpsuits.. Want one? Tell me in my Guest Book!

I'll be giving an item every second day, starting tommorrow.

Therese are the items you can choose between, colours are changeable.

- Ladydiver

Today was a great day for Nons..

.. Because we were finally able to enter The Vote :)

Here's my first entry, I know it isn't much, but Hollywood is not my thing ;)

How does your first entry look? And if you're not a non, then how does you entry for today look? :)

- Ladydiver

Having a bad day? Have a laugh!

If you're having a bad day, here's a laugh!

So a friend of mine is, on one of her other users, currently doing a Loki hair-design (And it's awesome!) and this is what happened in her comment section..

Being a massive fan of Marvels movies (I don't read any comics) this is just too hillarious!

- Ladydiver

The Vote..

So yesterday the theme on "The Vote" (the new "specrtaculair" competition on SD) was FASHION FAIL. From which you would assume, that the winners would be, well, not that pretty-pretty.. But like I foresaw, as every single day since The Vote started, people whom does not follow the themes, win purely based on their beauty.

Unless these are Fashion Fails?

There's nothing wrong with a beautyfull doll. I actully love, love, LOVE that mermaid tail on the winner, but that wasn't the theme!

I'm not trying to diss the winners, I'm just trying to say, that STARDOLL should check the winners every day, to see if they follow the theme. And if they didn't? Well the the highest rated whom actully follow the theme should win!

If would NOT be hard to look at a few pictures every day, and decide whether the user sticked to the theme. Otherwise, what's the point of a theme? What's the point of exchangeing this for the Catwalk? I much preferred the Catwalk then.

I'll go back to my studies now.. 

- Ladydiver

That deserves a competition!

Edit:

1. You may guess all you want, just one number per post and only post when I have replied to your latest post :) If I don't reply the same day, you can guess again the next day :)
2. Apparently non's can't give clothes and interior gifts anymore (we used to) so now the prizes will be an sc Design item you wish. In the bottom of the post there's a picture of the items you can choose from. You will offcourse still get a feature on the blog aswell :)
3. If you have any questions, just ask! :D

I just (for the first time) saw how many subscribers I have on my YouTube channel, most of them following because I do the walkthroughs..

I have 583! Oh my god, I didn't know so many people even watched! I'm so honored to know a lot of people likes my videos!

SO I'm gonna do a raffle! I have chosen 10 numbers between 1 and 100 and everyone who wishes can guess for a number and maybe you'll win? :)

I will be up-dating THIS post when you get a new try (And I will be watching you all, so no cheating) and I'll also be writing the names of the winners here :)

You can write your number here or in my guestbook :)

- Ladydiver

Used numbers: 10, 11, 16, 17, 20, 23, 25, 37, 47, 56, 58, 76, 81

Correct numbers: 25 guessed by leonkingma, 20 guessed by BeautyGirl-Love, 10 guessed by SosohannahCandy

The colours can be changed.

How-To Costume: Alice inWonderland (Disney version)

A very simple How-To Costume

(And I appologise for the boring look, I don't have internetaccess on my own computer, which has all the cool edit-programmes x.x WHICH is also why I haven't posted much)

Aanyway.. Whilst I was walking around chats today, creeping people out by being dressed as Jack Skellington (Check my user to see my Jack Skellington Costume) I met a very nice girl :)

She actully regocnised, that I was dressed as Jack Skellington, so I was very honoured ;) She herself was dressed as Alice, but she said she didn't think it was good enough (Though I think it was very nice ^^)

So inspiered by her, I decided to do a quick How-To Costume featuring Alice.. Since I didn't feel (for the first time) that I had the needed items in my own closet, andI wanted to make it easy to get for everyone, I decided to do it in the Bazar :)

I btw did it with a minor difference from Disneys Alice, adding the white shirt underneath her blue dress. Cause in another version she's wearing it and I think it looks a tad better ;D

And since I did it in the Bazar, I won't put up alternatives for the items, but simply say that, if you example you don't like the skirt I chose, there's 3-4 other skirts, I simply chose the one I thought would be best :)

Only one thing I'd change if I could, I'd offcourse add a black headband. The Bazar has no black headbands, but one can be made in the Jewlerydesign for 3-4 SD's.

So I hope you all liked this little How-To Costume and HAPPY HALLOWEEN! :D

- Ladydiver

P. s. I'm currently wearing different costumes in 5 of my rooms, so if you're looking for inspiration (you're also welcome to copy, just let me know if you do ^^) go have a look :)

The Phantom of the Opera (On Stardoll)

A few years back, I think it was in 2010? Stardoll made a the Phantom of the Opera campaign during October, culminating at Halloween AND I LOVED IT.

I'm a big TPOTO fan, so I went all the way. Decorating my suite as the opera, making sceneries, a my album was a TPOTO lookbook.
My entire user was inspiered by TPOTO.

And since it's Halloween again, I thought I'd post some of the things I did back then, to give off some inspiration :)
And offcourse the Phantom was female ;)

- Click "Read more" to see the pictures.

I did a bit of calculating..

There are 4942 FASHION-items in the Plaza.

1458 of them are SC-items.

1458 / 4942 * 100 = 29,50%

So this means, that 29,5% of the FASHION-items are SC-items.

It’s quite a lot actually, considering SC's the secondary currency of Stardoll..

… Though the quality of the items definitely can be discussed!

…

 I personally only think, that about 50% of the SC-items are worth using

– Which means there’s about 729 “nice” SC-FASHION-items.
