February Round 3, February Special: Pink and Casual

Round 3, February Special: Pink and Casual! Dress casual, for relaxing day with your bestie! Between the movies, girl to girl talks, board games, baking, etc you have so much you could do!

Required Item(s): You must have at least one, preferably more, pink item.

Post what you and your bestie enjoyed the most (ex "We Went To A Movie!") when you are done, you have 24 hours to change! 3 players will be eliminated, so use your imagination and have fun!

Example: my avatar is wearing her favorite jeans, simple shoes, very little jewelry, a small light purse and a head band to keep my hair out of my eyes. This outfit has 3 pink items, and is one of my favorites! ~ Sky's Limit

Weekly Closet Update: Pink Darling

Honestly, I was disappointed with this weeks outfit for many reasons. My main reason is because 3/4 of the items cost gems.  I believe that the earrings should have been hearts (or something like that), the dress is to see through, the shoes are odd looking on the avatar's feet and I love the bracelets. 

In my version of the new outfit my avatar is wearing the new bracelets, the rest of the outfit is just something I put together to showcase the pink bracelets and I think it goes with the Valentine theme.What do y'all think of this weeks outfit? ~ Sky's Limit

February Round 2: Points and Eliminations

Everyone did a good job this round, though I was hoping for a little more creativity. Next round will be posted sometime tomorrow, but points first:

February Round 2, Under Cover: Waitress!

Great job on the first round ladies, here comes the second and good luck!

Round 2, Under Cover: Waitress! You are going under cover at a nice but not to fancy restaurant! Be ready to serve and smile in your new post!

Requirements: Main body of the outfit must be Black & White and your hair must be short or put back. If you do not include these items, you will lose points!

You have 24 hours to change, post "Steak" on my wall when you are done. 3 players will be eliminated, so choose your outfit with care and as always have fun!

Example: Cute white shirt with simple black pants and nice shoes make this outfit elegant but simple, with a little jewelry but not enough to be encumbering to my work. Go for less jewelry on the arms, and no purse if you can. Make the shirt, shoes and pants/skirt speak of professional and dignified service. Don't forget to Smile though! ~ Sky's Limit

February Round 1, Holiday: Valentine's Day

Welcome to my second Fashionista O' the month 2014, and my first Fashionista O' February contest ladies! I will be posting not only the rounds here, but also the Top contestants for each round, the points and eliminations. 3 players will be eliminated each round unless I indicate otherwise. 

There will not always be a required item, but if there is and you don't include it in your outfit there will be points taken off your score. I will post some of the details on my Fashion Story wall, but all of the details will be posted here.

Thank you for joining my contest and enjoy!

Round 1, Holiday: Valentine's Day! You and your sweet heart are going on a date for Valentine's Day!  Get ready to enjoy a night of talk, music and dancing.

Post "Hearts" when you are ready, you have 24 hours to change. 3 players will be eliminated, so be on time!

Required Item: You must include one red item in your outfit. This can include anything that has red on it as well (such as the purse in the example pic).

Example: In the picture above I am wearing several red items, such as the shirt, purse and shoes. I suggest black with your red item, but that is just me. The earrings and skirt add a little elegance and beauty while the belt just brings the outfit together. Have Fun! ~ Sky's Limit

Weekly Update: Sweet Sophisticate!

This outfit is very interesting, but am I the only one who is getting tired of burgundy? It has almost been a month since Christmas and Fall... ?( The shirt and glasses from this update are gems which y'all know I don't like spending and the skirt and shoes are way to many coins if you are a newer player though I will buy them at some point.

My version of the new outfit I included the skirt and shoes which I will buy once I have enough coins, since I just bought my 2million expansion plus floor tiles. The rest of my outfit (shirt, purse, bracelet, necklace and glasses) where clothes I already owned and seem to go ok with the new update.

What I would suggest to TeamLava is to make an outfit that is under 10,000 coins per item and maybe add a Black shirt that is cute and doesn't cost gems. I think Black and Neon pink would go nicely together, don't you think?

If you have an opinion or a question please voice them via comment, thanks for reading! ~ Sky's Limit

Welcome to the Label of Fame: Classy 'N Sassy!

I saw this outfit yesterday I just had to take a pic and post it to my Limit Label of Fame! I have never seen such cute and useful workout outfit since I have been on this game!

Congratulations Classy 'N Sassy, and until next time. ~ Sky's Limit

How to Use PicMonkey: a Tutorial Requested By Style N Fit

Style N Fit was curious about my collages and asked me what I used to make them. I told her that I would post a tutorial to fully explain how I use PicMonkey.

Today I am going to edit this picture for my next post:

With PicMonkey, you can either Edit a photo, Create a collage or Design. I have yet to use design, but that is beside the point. Today I am going to create a collage and then edit it.

First thing we need to do is select the photo to edit:

Now that we have our photo, we need to design our collage:

You can change the arrangement of your squares and the size of your photo:

Also there are some available 'swatches' which you can use to enhance and brighten up your collage.

Now it is time to change the background color:

Because of I want to use this collage for, I want to change the size: 

Now its time to add text, overlays and more:

First I am going to add a frame, to give this picture a little more dignity:

Now we will add text: 

 You can use these themes if you are looking for a specific look:

But for now I will save my creation:

In a few hours I will post this picture in it's one post :), hope this answers your question Style N Fit and thanks for asking! Please feel free to ask any more questions you have via comments. ~ Sky's Limit 

Welcome to the Limit Label of Fame: Dream Boutique!

This picture was taken during one of my Fashionista of the month contest, and though Dream Boutique did not win she did do an awesome job on this outfit. I am glad to add her to my Label of Fame. 

Congratulations Dream Boutique! If you have a question or an opinion please leave a comment. ~ Sky's Limit

How to keep it Functioning: Space and Patience (A Subject Suggested by Anna's Fashions)

Having trouble selling your clothing and accessories on Fashion Story? If stocking up isn't your problem, then this post is for you. When I asked my younger sister if she had any ideas of what I could post about on my blog, she reminded me of a tip I gave her when she was starting her boutique on Fashion Story.

Let's Just imagine for a second that the graph below is your boutique and we are looking directly down at it.

The black squares are the walls of your boutique and the break in them is the door. Green Squares are your tables, the pink squares are your racks, the yellow squares are your changing stations and the blue are your mirrors. 

See those red lines? They are where in this set up your buyers can go. The issue is they can only buy what the can walk up to, so in this example only 40 out of the 105 displaying racks/tables are bought off of. 

For those of you out there who use this to your advantage and stock up, there is nothing wrong with doing that. Nevertheless, I think a boutique looks better when spaced correctly and it functions better earning money at a steady rate. 

This is a picture of my boutique Sky's Limit taken on March 30, 2013. My racks and tables are spaced accordingly and now all you and I both need is a little patience. 

If you have a question on this post please comment and if you want to make a suggestion like Anna's Fashions did go to Questions and Suggestions and leave a comment with your idea or ideas there. Thanks for reading! ~ Sky's Limit

Welcome to The Label of Fame: Chictique!

This picture was taken of on my visit to Chictique's boutique on January 13th, 2014. I love how she put this out together, so I decided to add her to the Label of Fame. Congratulations Chictique!

Holiday Stuff is Leaving, so Buy What You Are Going to Buy Soon!

I know this is a picture from Bakery Story, but I got the same notification from Fashion Story a few days ago (I didn't think to snap a screenshot when it came up). 

Based on what I have seen and heard, all the Winter Holiday items will be removed from iOS games between Wednesday, January 15th and Friday, January 17th, so get what you are going to get before they disappear! ~ Sky's Limit 

Closet Update: Runway Ready

This weeks update was called "Runway Ready" though that is not what I would have called it. The original outfit is cute notwithstanding the fact that is missing pants (again). Nevertheless, the top and scarf cost gems and since I am saving up for something else I don't own them.

 In the outfit above and on the left I added in my own clothing items to the very cute purse and shoes that where included in this weeks Closet Update. One other thing I have noticed is that the coin items are way to expensive for the newer players. I believe TeamLava could have done better, What do you think? ~ Sky's Limit

Closet Updates: Snow Adventure

Every week Team Lava releases a Closet Update and a Decor Update. This weeks Closet Update was called "Snow Adventure" and the picture above is my version of it. I have recently discovered that Team Lava releases these updates every Tuesday, though the update before Christmas was an exemption and came a day early. Other than that, they have been very consistent with when they release the updates. 

Why is 'when' in bold? Because though Team Lava is consistent about when they release the updates, they are not consistent with the quality of the new outfits. 

Back to the matter at hand, I thought this outfit was cute, though I don't own the boots and coat because they cost to many gems. I also added the jeans to make the outfit more modest and the sunglasses I added out of whim. :)

I am going to start posting about the updates every Tuesday, hopefully Team Lava comes out with a Beautiful outfit next week... ~ Sky's Limit 

Welcome To the Limit Label of Fame: Love Pink!

I decided to go through my picture library and pick some of my favorite outfits to feature on my blog,  I will be taking a picture (screenshots) if I see a stunning outfit by either my neighbors or community members and possibly feature it here. This time our stunning outfit duo comes from Love Pink!

These outfits are not recent ones, nevertheless they belong in the Limit Label of Fame. The picture on the left was taken on October 29, 2013 and the picture on the right was taken on November 8, 2013. 

Love Pink was named the Fashionista O' October 2013 and writes her owns Fashion Story Blog.

Congratulations Love Pink! ~ Sky's Limit

Fashionista O' January: Sparkle

On December 26, 2013 I sent out invite to a select group of people on Fashion Story to join my contest. Of those I invited, only 7 responded. Sparkle's over all score matched the current top record still held by Jourdyn Sparkle, the Fashionista O' November in 2013. Here are some of her amazing outfits... Enjoy!

Above: To the left is her outfit for Round 1, Holiday, in the middle is her outfit for Round 2, Undercover, and on the right is her outfit for Round 3, Date Night.

Below: On the left is Sparkle's Outfit for Round 5: Theme of Your Boutique, her theme is Dark Forest and on the right is her outfit for Round 4, Outing.

This is not Sparkle's first award on Fashion Story, which goes to show how consistent she is when it comes to fashion. I loved almost all her outfits, and hope to have her in my next contest. It is people like this that make my job as judge a joy. Thank you Sparkle, and Congrats! ~ Sky's Limit

January Round 5: Theme of Your Boutique!

Let's hear a round of applause to our three finalists: Sparkle, Fashion Kingdom, and Louise!

Round 5: Theme of Your Boutique! You are to dress to represent your boutique's unique theme to the press! Post the Theme of Your Boutique when you are done (ex. Green and Blue Beach Chic), you have 24 hours to change. This round I will be adding up your overall scores so no eliminations, You are the top 3! Remember only one person can be named Fashionista O' January, so chose your outfits wisely and may the best dresser win!  

Example: Because everyone has a unique theme, your outfit should not look exactly like mine. However here are some basic ideas to help you dress your avatar in the theme of your boutique. First, "Does your boutique have any distinct colors?" in my case blue and green are prominent colors in my decor and displayed clothes items. Second, "Is some of your decor specific to a certain climate/habitat?" in my case turtles, sea shells, palm trees and bamboo can all be found on the beach. You could also dress in items that can commonly be found in your store. 

If you need more examples or inspiration click here to see the pictures of former winners of my contest's outfits for this theme. If you need help coming up with or discovering your boutique theme click here. ~ Sky's Limit
