If I Were Callie: Lala's Picks

Callie, the face of Stardoll, releases new floors of her store Callie's Picks every two weeks, which is a store dedicated to putting old items back into circulation for new members. Every release has a theme, but not every release has good items for the theme.

This is a new feature I want to do about what items I would put into the release of Callie's Picks. I will review her release, and choose three outfits with unique items that I would have chosen to re-release.

Her latest theme is called Bikinimania, and is a summer oriented selection of bathing suits and summer items. I love this theme idea, because we've had cute swimming suits in the past that I was sad to see go. It's a smart move on their part to release this after releasing Underneath Stardoll, the invisible underwear store.

I'm pretty pleased with this release, although I didn't buy many items. There are a lot of old Hot Buys in it, though, which always lowers their value in the Starbazaar. It's no big deal to me though because I'm not a collector. I bought the Ferragasto Bikini Top and Bottom, Miss Sixty Cherry Earrings, and Pastel Strapped Sandals.


Now onto my selections! This was harder than I expected. I had to choose items that are no longer in Starplaza, cohesive, and on theme. I also needed to choose accessories and shoes.


The first look is a classic sailor inspired look that doesn't show much skin.

Coco hat from Decades
Monte Carlo Swim Suit from Monte Carlo (freebie)
Twenties Beach Shorts from Decades
Striped Ballet Flats with no brand tag

The second outfit is a turquoise and white two piece look.

Miss Sixty Daisy Pigtails from Miss Sixty
White Open Cardigan from Miss Sixty
Harajuku Bikini from Harajuku Girls Fragrance (freebie)
Beach Bracelet from Rio Chicas
Anchor Tote Bag from Spring Surprises (freebie)
Carved Teal Sandals from Original Future

Finally, the third is a girly flouncy look.

Orhange from Otto
Mermaid Scales Shawl from Bonjour Bizou
Bow Front Swim Suit from Pretty N Love
Olsenboye Rio Sandal from Olsenboye

What items would you have put in this week's Callie's Picks?
