Style Boutique 2: All Caprice Chalet Rooms

It is the end of an era with the online features for the Nintendo 3DS being shut off by Nintendo a few weeks ago. Crazy to think how much I sunk into using the online modes in the Style Boutique games and all the posts I made on the blog regarding Caprice Chalet and Shopdo. I went back through my post history and I posted 17 room updates which is a decent number! I used to spend a lot of time downloading rooms to obtain items I didn't have. Like hours entering the room codes and cross checking guides to make sure I had every single item.

Since the room sharing feature is now turned off, I though it would be fun to post all the Caprice Chalet rooms I had created in the game. These are all rooms that I had put together and not every single one was featured in online. Some were ones that I created for guides back when I used to do those for another blog. Excuse any terrible quality photos as there was a brief period where I ran the image through photoshop thinking it made it look better when it only made it worst. Honestly I am the worst person with graphic design things and have zero skills.

Let's start off with two cute animal themed room! I always love putting the little dog miniatures down in rooms and it was an easy way to fill space. The first room has the perfect name of Bird Cage as it is literally the bird item placed four times. I was really trying to fill some quota there. The dog room was similar to a loft room but I had to figure out how many dogs made it a dog room. Seems like it is the number three!

Onto a bunch of bedrooms and this was the most common room I would encounter online and through streetpassing. No idea why, like was it an easy room to set up with the starter items and you didn't have to be too creative. I've seen some pretty crazy looking rooms of all colour and pattern schemes over the years. All the bedrooms tend to look the same as there isn't a large amount of bed themed items to choose from. I've literally only used two beds in these rooms! Girly bedroom is nearly identical apart from a few items.

April Favourites

Super happy to see April go as it was another stressful month and I've quite a number of things on all at once. I have been working on the blog more and trying to clear out my backlog of screenshots. Pretty much up to date and I am going to work on updating/revamping the various topic pages on the blog. One exciting thing of the month was seeing the Aespa World Tour concert at the cinemas which I went to last weekend. It was great that it got shown here and there was even two sessions! My session only had 23 people in one of the biggest cinemas at my local one and it was good to see support for the group.

Gaming

This month I've been playing stacks of Pretty Princess Party as I've been working on finishing the game. It is a cute game with lots of collectibles and I've been creating some nice looking rooms. Once you get a good range of furniture that is from the same set, it is easy to create rooms. Currently I am focusing on completing the villager houses but I think I've reached the limit I can do until I reach Level 5. Here are some of the rooms I've designed in Pretty Princess Party:

Outfit of the Day - Floral Favourites

After playing Fashion Dreamer for a while now, I'm beginning to figure out what my favourite items are. I would rank this floral top and skirt as one of my top items. It seems like I often use it and try to incorporate it into as many Lookits as possible. The item has a dreamy feel to it and this top is my go-to when someone requests floral. My character was wearing this outfit for a long time and I almost didn't want to change it to take new photos :( Even the hair matches perfectly and is one of my favourite hairstyles. The backdrop has a nice pastel fade effect to it and I like hanging out in the starter cocoon honestly. I find it easy to walk around and I know where all the characters are hanging out.

MODEL Debut2 #nicola - Adding to the Portfolio

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.

The next modelling job was a fun one as I got to take a duo shot with Yuika! We decided on a girly image in the colour pink. Sounds perfect to me as I love those elements. I do wish the text all happened on one screen to make it easier to follow along. There are so many scene changes and characters talking.

Fashion Dreamer Play Journal - Actually Designing Clothes

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 Lolita inspired coordinate. This outfit was a Lookit that I received from a player and thank you so much for it!

A bunch of Lookits that I made for other muses and I saved these ones as I liked how they turned out. Not the flashiest looks however the colours schemes were my favourite. Plus I don't do casual looks often so it was a nice change of pace. Two of these even scored four wish list requirements which is amazing! I feel like I rarely see that as I don't focus too much on it as I go more for the colour requested.

Girls Mode 3 Glitter ☆ Coordination Book - ファンタニア Fantania

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.

ファンタニア Fantania is the brand to head if you want clothing items that are for dressing up or taking on a new persona. The brand is famous for its costume pieces and matching sets. And it is also famous for it's steep price range with basically every item costing a small fortune. ファンタニア Fantania is home to a variety of images but I feel that is matches the lively image the most. You can find all the amiibo items under this brand once you scan them into the game which makes sense because they are literally cosplay items.

Outfit Of The Day - Cute Beginnings

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.
