I need to learn not to take as many screenshots when I play games as I always have a giant stack of them to sort through afterwards. That camera button is probably the most used on my switch! Today I have some snaps from MODEL Debut2 #nicola with some lovely photos I took for various jobs. Starting off with this new portrait I took of my character and this is one of my favourite hairstyles in the game.
More Fashion Dreamer snaps for today's blog post. I still have a backlog to get through before catching up to the current events in-game. Swear I'm trying to take less screenshots but they are just too many lovely things to take photos of! Like these two gorgeous photos of my character wearing a cute baby-doll inspired coordinate. This outfit was a Lookit that I received from a player and thank you so much for it!
All the photos of the brands in the Girls Mode 3 Glitter ☆ Coordination Book have finally been taken and I can work towards finishing off this series. There are only two more to post from the womens clothing brands and today's post will look at the costume brand ファンタニア Fantania. The brand is known as Purple Moon in Style Boutique and Style Savvy however I find Fantania a rather whimsical name. It reminds me of the word fantasy and the idea of dressing up.
Starting a new collection in the Outfit of the Day series with Fashion Dreamer! I haven't really done much outfit creation in this game until recently and now I am hooked. I kept seeing cute outfits on tumblr and though why on earth am I not doing this? The whole process is a lot quicker than Style Boutique I found with it being much easier to navigate through menus and areas to change your look. I will be posting new outfits often and it is great how much better the photos look in Fashion Dreamer. Like I love Style Boutique to death, but these look amazing!
For this outfit, I kept thinking about this cute dress and always wanted to use it. It would appear when making lookits for other players and I had to resist using it as it didn't match their requests. So I ended up making myself an outfit with it and I love how it turned. Very cute and simple! The look is rather black and white as I stuck with those colours. The chunky shoes were a great addition and I felt it gave a 90's touch to the outfit. I recall this style being popular in television and magazines when I was a kid and I was too young to wear something like this. Maybe the dress part something I would wear but definitely not the shoes.
A new fashion game was released on the e-shop this month called DIY Fashion Star and I thought why not try it out? I was able to buy it on sale for about $6 which I thought was reasonable. Managed to play a little bit of the game and have some screenshots to share. Now to be honest, this game isn't too amazing or a detailed fashion game but I thought it was be nice to share a short review in case other players are interested in it.
DIY Fashion Star was released on Nintendo Switch (in Australia) on the 1st of March 2024 throught QubicGames. The game is a single player game and can be played on TV Mode or with the joycons. It is rated G which makes sense as the game seems to be catered towards children than adults. I searched for the game on the Google Play store as it just screamed phone app game to me and turns out it was! It had different graphics but the mechanics seems similar. The character selection is pretty basic and there are no customisation options.
A sad moment this week with the online services for the 3DS being turned off by Nintendo on the 8th of April. I cannot believe it is actually happening and I have many great memories using the service. Sadly with no online, the Shopdo feature in New Style Boutique 3: Styling Star and Style Savvy: Styling Star will no longer be functional. NOOO!! I've spent so much time on it and it was always such a big part of my blogs. So I thought for one more time, I would go visit some players on the Shopdo app and take some cute photos whilst I still can.
Starting off, I headed to the recent section of Shopdo and visited whoever came up. No idea if any of these are recent players or older uploads. Are people even still playing Styling Star online? Like I still play the game, but usually by myself. Everyone had on gorgeous outfits and it was fun seeing the boutique layouts. I totally forgot about decorating the boutique recently and how limited it was in the game.
A sad day is upon us with Nintendo finally shutting down online services for the 3DS on the 8th of April. Unfortunately that means that the Shopdo feature in New Style Boutique 3: Styling Star and Style Savvy: Styling Star will no longer available. So tragic! I wonder how many hours I've spent on Shopdo because I've used it so much and it was a big part of my blog for years. It's shocking that it will no longer be playable soon.
Decided to upload one final collection in celebration of the service and to go out with some of my favorites! I went with three looks from my scrapbook as these are outfits that I'm proud of and been some of my favourite work in Styling Star. Maybe once the service shuts down, they can exist in cyber space haha. First off is a cute pink dress that was one of my ultimate items in the game and I was obsessed with these. One of the best items added in the game and I add my famous beret to it as all outfits cannot be completed without one. Second look is a simple girly look featuring some excellent items that were always a smash hit. Love these shades of blue and the denim look of the skirt. Lastly we have a glam/flirty look of course because I couldn't go out with a glam look. This image will never die and I will take it to the grave. It was impossible to decide on my favourite glam look from my scrapbook as there was some amazing pink ones. But I went with the purple tones as it felt very Y2K and I feel you could wear this in real life with current fashion trends.
You can find all these outfits at my Shopdo ID 0006271056 in New Style Boutique 3: Styling Star (EUR/AUS Region) for a selected time only! Pretty much only a few days as the service will be offline soon. It has been a wonderful experience posting all my Shopdo looks to the blog as well as my Shopdo posts on the guide blog. I'm kind of sad that it is all over and my very first Shopdo Update was back in 2018. That was forever ago and now we are here at the final one. I wonder how many updates I posted and it would be fun to look back at all the outfits I created. Maybe another time and anyway, I hope you enjoyed this post and come visit!
