Callie's Picks #8 - Head Over Heels

Earlier today Stardoll released a new collection of Callie's Picks.

There was a clear Valentine's Day theme and a lot of nice pieces.
This time the chosen items and their prices weren't too scandalous, the worst probably being that heart top, originally a freebie, and the Special Edition Guitar, which if I'm correct is quite rare.

Nothing in this collection really stood out to me at a first glance. There are some quite nice items though a lot of them are definitely not the sort of items I would buy or use.
Overall though, this collection is okay, though I think Stardoll could've chosen better pieces.

The items that captured my attention at first are probably the Micro Hearts Fall Dress (priced 20sd) and the 2010 Dress Inspired by Marc Jacobs (priced 25sd). I bought them as soon as I saw them.

These are my favourite items of the collection:

What do you think? Are you happy with Callie's choices for this issue?

Callie's Picks #8 - Red Carpet Ready

Today brought a new Callie's Picks issue, this one red carpet themed.

There were quite a few great pieces but many people share the concern as to why Stardoll rereleased items still in Starplaza and why the prices are so inflated.
The main issue was the Angelina Dress.
In Callie's Picks the dress bore a rather hefty price tag of 28sd. While the original is still in Starplaza, in Voile, for a mere 8sd.
And another, the Forest Fairy dress. Once given as a freebie, now priced at 24sd in the new rereleases.

While it's clear that a lot of items are simply ridiculously priced, there are some great pieces and a few I'd definitely purchase myself.
Here are my favourite items out of the collection.
