CLEANOUT

Daphne Groeneveld

Out with the old and in with the new, as they say anyways.

I couldn't continue to stand on the sidelines and watch as this blog deteriorates into nothing, particularly as I have just been informed that fashion blogs are slowly dying out. It's a bit ironic really, considering this is a fashion website.  

This blog meant a lot to me back in the day, and I know it meant a lot to others out there. That's why, although I won't be here the whole time, I would like to get this blog up and running again. 

So here it is, I've freshened up the blog layout for a bit and am searching for new writers. I really don't know what happened to the old ones, but if you're interested in fashion and modelling and have something to say, message me on Stardoll (missricopenguin) and I'll try to reply.

If you are one of the current writers and want to stay on, message me and we can work something else.

Until next time,

wow its been a while but SCENERY CONTESSSSSST

Wow its been forever, feels like a year or something since ive really been active on stardoll, and i dont miss stardoll at all, not one bit, but i do miss the blogging :~(( To be completely honest i'm not even sure if i'm allowed to write here since I told Lia I quit, but she never removed me from the writers thingy, so here i am :~))

I remember in my early days of Stardoll, and amongst my favourite blogs was Editorialized, to me it seemed the most classiest and sophisticated out of all of them, you didn't need to write about bitchy back-stabbing stories to get readers, and it was the blog that really least concentrated on Stardoll and more on the real world and fashion, which we all adore. Lia's sceneries were always so amazing to me, the manipulation and beauty of everything! And i loved the scenery contests on here, just seeing all the amazing entries, so i want to make another one!

~to be completely honest i don't think that many people will even take note of this post but oh well its worth a shot to try and revive Editorialized~

The theme of this contest is FAIRYTALES.

You're a liar if you say that you didn't love princesses and the idea of a happily ever after as a kid and possibly still do, so this is your theme! You can recreate your favourite scene, portray your favourite fairytale princess, anything you like!

Heres an example that i made of Snow White really long ago [its pretty bad but oh well]

All you need to do is comment down below your username, link to where you created your scenery or a tinypic screenshot link, and that's it! There is no prize cause im poor and im not going to buy superstar just for this lol but you'll be featured in a post and you'll have my respect and honour, and i'll also be giving everyone feedback on their scenery :)))

it would mean the world if you did enter tho lol so do it 

It Would Be Nice If You Read This

I don't know. I just feel oddly nostalgic.
I really don't know if this is the right place to put this, and I know this blog is deteriorating (if anyone is interested in restoring it, feel free and message me, if not, well I don't mind too much if it just sits quietly as a memoir to my past obsessions),  but for some reason I just feel nostalgic.
It probably doesn't help that I just read 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower' (which is amazing, go read it, or reread) and it's just made me think so much for some odd reason.
And then I realised that it had been a year since I officially 'quit' Stardoll, and really it feels so much longer. In that time I've taken my first every real exams, learnt to drive, gone to parties, became obsessed with models like Cara Delevingne and Daphne Groeneveld and I think, have grown up so much.
Which is probably great for me, considering I'm 16 and I only have a year left of high school, I don't regret at all leaving.

But then I realised that it was 2+ years ago when I was beginning to get into the stardoll 'scene'. I remember being 14 and thinking it was all so cool. I found these gossip blogs and trawled through their posts because I found how interesting the dynamics of this world was. I wanted in so badly. So I created a nightclub, The French Flamingo, if anyone remembers. And I remember being so excited because I had met two amazing people who wanted to help me. Maria and Vasia, who became two of my closest friends. I really liked them, they were so nice and came from the other side of the world and I thought they were so cool (which they are).
I really liked my nightclub, but it was so crazy. The first party I remember having was a killer. People showed up, had fun. Mind you, this was with the 'old' guestbooks, when it was so much easier to have parties. Literally 3 days after the party, stardoll changed and it was so much more difficult to have them. I detested the tinychat parties, they didn't feel like 'real' stardoll parties. The nightclub ended up becoming defunct I suppose. It was kind of ridiculous for me to get up at 4am to host a party.
That ended but I still had my modeling club. Which I loved. I'm a big fan of modelling, but I could never be a model myself. My love of modeling, fashion and photography developed into this blog. It was really meant to showcase stardoll talent and real models in real life.

I don't really know why I'm writing this, but as I said, I feel oddly nostalgic. There really is no need for this post, but this blog hardly posts anyways.

I will however leave some food for thought:
From what I can tell, so many people are leaving stardoll, no one seems to really be creating new blogs, or posting on old ones. It really seems quite boring and different to how it was a few years ago. However, no one is going to post if they do not see responses. Which, if you wish for this community to continue on, you should do. Comment on blog posts, new magazines, fashion line, whatever; all, this encourages the blogger to continue writing. Give love, criticism or hate. No one is going to continue creating new things if no one seems to care (well, on Stardoll anyways, this may not apply to real life.)
If you really want this whole world or whatever to be interesting and have fresh new things, be proactive about it and do something! Encourage others, comment and have your say on anything, it gets the conversation rolling, as more often than not, people just give up on their projects (and they could one day be amazing), if no one seems to care.


Anyways, that's all I feel the need to write.
