Brainstorming Pokemon Teams

Time for another one of these.

Magical girl series are great for basing Pokemon teams on, I think. I'll probably be doing several different ones, but we're going to start with Madoka Magica. The Fate team was pretty easy to brainstorm, but this one should be a bit a lot more difficult. Let's start with the easy ones, though.

(Also, beware of spoilers.)

Sugary Sweet

Style Savvy has really upped its pose game with Styling Star. In fact, there are so many poses that it's actually overwhelming. That's not a bad thing, of course, but it makes choosing poses difficult, which means I end up taking a lot of pictures. So I thought I'd try something slightly different with my Styling Star posts and just do one outfit per post, like Mel often does. So without further ado, let's get started!
                                 

Being cute with my adorable assistant.

Welcome to Styling Star: This Time For Real

As expected, Styling Star has completely taken over my life the last few days. I've got plenty to say about it, and you can expect lots of posts in the near future, but for now, I thought I'd just give you a quick introduction to my character.
                                                           

Meet Alice.

Holidays, Styling Star & Cats

Merry Christmas! Happy holidays! I hope everyone's having a great day. Christmas isn't the only thing to celebrate today, though. There's also the release of Styling Star! Which I am celebrating, with a new banner.

That's all I've really got to say. Before I go, though, I've got a present for everyone:
                                                               

This will forever be my favorite picture of Moose.

Actual babies.

Yes, I will use any excuse to post pictures of my cats. But hey, who doesn't like pictures of cats?

Santa Sunday

I've done some photoshoots with the Teatro Amare Santa outfits, so I figured since it's Christmas Eve, now would be a good time to post them. Though we did Christmas early this year, which has totally thrown me off...

                                               

Ho ho ho, let's go~

Brand Highlight: April Bonbon

I planned to get this up earlier today, but I was busy, and then my mom invited me out for a late dinner...and then I procrastinated some more...

Anyway, I did a post like this on Purple Moon in October, and I said I would do more, but then completely forgot. Well, I finally remembered the other day, so here's the second one.

Today's brand is April Bonbon! April Bonbon is a brand that's been in every game so far, and unlike some of the other brands, its name has remained the same throughout...except for Trendsetters, where they briefly changed the name to Mint Sprinkles. Additionally, there was also a very similar brand in the first game named Dazies, which was presumably removed for being too similar. At any rate, April Bonbon's style is 'lively' ('pop' in Trendsetters) and the brand focuses on clothes that are bright, colorful, and fun. So let's get started!
                                                 

Of course I have to include the Halloween stuff.

Miscellaneous Style

No theme for today, I've just selected a random pair of outfits. So let's get started!
                                     

♪

Girly Glitz

The theme of the day is girly, so I've got way too many a bunch of girly outfits for you here.
                   

♪

"Try It On!"

The 'try it on' animations are really fun, so I end up taking a lot of screenshots of them. So let's get some posts out of 'em!
             

Let's go!

Rock 'n Roll

I've got a pair of ro- er, edgy outfits for you today.

Miscellaneous Style

Time for another random selection of pictures.

Flirty Friday

Wow, double posts today? What a rare occasion.

The Five Copycats

I finally managed to get this event, so I figured why not do a post about it.
                                                       

How could I not, when all anyone ever wants is to look like her?

Pokéfashion

Yeah, this post was inevitable. Let's take a look at my various adventures as a poké-fashionista.
           

Let's-a-go!

Yukata Be Kiddin' Me

No, I'm not going to apologize for that title.

Anyway, I'm feeling mostly better now, just very tired, so I figured it was about time for another post.
                                 

♪

New Room + Other Stuff

Sorry that I haven't posted in over a week, I've got the flu right now. Funtimes. Honestly, I still feel like hot garbage, but I wanted to get this post up today regardless.
                                           

New Christmas-themed room up for download. It'll be up for the whole month of December.

Random Cat Update

Went to my brother's house for Thanksgiving, had a good time, hung out with his pets, and now Jealousface is being a big clingy baby.

                 

Awkwardly cropped because I didn't want my face in the picture.

Just posting this because I thought someone might be amused by my big jealous baby of a cat.

Miscellaneous Style

Happy Pie Day to everyone who celebrates it, and to those who don't, you should have some pie today anyway! And maybe some turkey, but the pie is the important part. At any rate, I thought I'd take this chance to post some fall fashion before my favorite season comes to an end.

Welcome to Stardom: Styling Star Demo Part Three

Yup, it's finally time for the last part.

Customer Appreciation Day

Luna is a much more social creature than I am, and likes to hang out with her customers. She even considers many of them to be her friends, that crazy lass. She also has a compulsive need to constantly take pictures of everything. So today we're gonna look at some pictures she's taken with her customers ;)
                                 

The first group event I'd gotten in quite a while.
Really looks like there should be a fifth person there. Also, Luna missed the 'turtlenecks only' memo, but was reluctantly allowed to join the group anyway :P

Miscellaneous Style

I meant to post this a few days ago, but I haven't been feeling well :/ whatever, let's get started.
                 

♪

Basic Bitch

Yup, couldn't resist that title. Today I've got some basic outfits for you and, well...that's about it.
       

Let's begin!

Brainstorming Pokemon Teams

Sometimes when I play Pokemon I like to put together teams based on a particular theme. I thought maybe that'd be a fun thing to post about. So here's an idea that I've been playing around with for a while: a Fate team, based on the different servant classes.

Welcome to Fantasia: Styling Star Demo Part Two

Time for part two.

Let's begin!

Miscellaneous Style

Continuing with my enjoyment of lolita-style clothing, I've got two more Trendsetters outfits for you today.
                                                   

Let's-a-go!

Babydoll Special

"I'll post something else in a little bit" I said, six seven hours ago >.>; er, well, at any rate, let's put aside my procrastination for the moment. Miiverse is officially gone, and I'll really miss it, but instead of sulking about it, I'm going to dedicate a post to one of my favorite styles in these games- the babydoll/princess/sweet lolita style. So without further ado, let's begin.
                                                                     

These gloves actually look kind of gross up close. Also, I'm not sure that fancy lace gloves are what you should wear while cooking.

Bye Bye Miiverse

Well, Miiverse has officially shut down :(

It's sad, but there's no point in dwelling on it, I suppose. I'll post something cheerier in a bit, but first, I must eat.

Welcome to Magnolia: Styling Star Demo Part 1

Yes, you read that title correctly. Part one. You might be wondering how I could possibly stretch the demo into multiple posts. Well...as I've said before, I have a tendency to go...a biiiiit overboard with things ^_^' so I've played the demo about seven times, and taken a bunch of screenshots each time. At any rate, though, let's get started!
                                                                             

Rosie has a worse memory than I do.

I love that you get to name your town this time! I've been using 'Magnolia' for the demo, and I'll probably stick with it in the full game.

Miscellaneous Style

Back to Fashion Forward for another random selection of pictures.                                                                       

Let's begin!

Miscellaneous Style: Trendsetters Edition

Now that Halloween has passed and October is finished, it's time to broaden our horizons. Well, at least a little bit. So, it's Trendsetters time!

                                                                            

Meet Airi.
                                                             

New Room

I've put up a new room for download, where you can buy one of my designer pieces. From now on, I'll be swapping my room out once a month.
                                                                               

This month's room.

                                                                             

And this is the dress that you can buy off the mannequin.

This Is Halloween

Happy Halloween! My favorite holiday has arrived! Now, I'm generally only going to post my own videos here, but since it's Halloween, I wanted to take the chance to promote one of my favorite amvs. After all, I always make sure to watch it (and make everyone else watch it) on Halloween every year. It's tradition for me, so I figured why not share the tradition!



Credit, of course, goes to Hagaren Viper for making this amazing video! I just wanted to share it :)

Cosplay Week: Day Seven

It's the last day of cosplay week and Halloween is tomorrow, so I've got my spoookiest cosplay prepared for today. Well...not really. There is kind of a horror theme, though.
                                                                             

Kyouko Kirigiri from Dangan Ronpa

Get Away

Time for another video and now we're getting into the good stuff. Be forewarned, as gore lies ahead.



You can also watch/download this rare non-anime video from me here.


I made this video and uploaded it to youtube near the end of January...and then realized about a week later that I should've waited and uploaded it on valentine's day.

I have a morbid sense of humor.

After all, I uploaded this video on christmas eve.

Cosplay Week: Day Six

Cosplay week is almost over and Halloween is almost upon us, so without further ado, let's get started.
                                                                   

Starting off with our final Gahara.

Cosplay Week: Day Five

I almost forgot to post this. Whoops? Well, at any rate, today is day five, so let's get started.
                                                                         

Princess Daisy

Cosplay Week: Day Four

It's day four of cosplay week and...well, there's really nothing else to say, so let's get started!
                                                                                 

Starting with our favorite cutie pie, Sophie.

Feel

Another amv.


(Spoiler warning for Madoka Magica and especially Rebellion.)

You can also watch/download it here.

Maybe not full on spoopy gory horror, but I think creepy yandere turned eldritch abomination is good enough.

As a relevant side note, I actually uploaded this to youtube on Halloween last year.

Cosplay Week: Day Three (Lucky Star Edition)

It's day three of cosplay week and today's gonna be a little different. Today is just going to be dedicated to a single series: Lucky Star.
                                                                             

Starting, of course, with everyone's favorite otaku: Konata Izumi!

Cosplay Week: Day Two

Day two of cosplay week is here and with it a new set of pictures. Let's get started!

                                                                     

Megurine Luka, the Vocaloid.
Specifically from Just Be Friends.

Cosplay Week: Day One

I have done a ton of cosplay in this game, so I'll be posting them every day this week.

                                                                   

Starting with Saki Hanajima from my favorite manga of all time, Fruits Basket.

Summer uniform version.

Noir

As Halloween is almost here, I thought I'd post some...appropriate videos. Well, I say that, but horror isn't really a genre I play around with much. This video isn't really scary or creepy, but then, it's not meant to be. Still, it contains vampires and mild gore, so good enough!



(Monogatari series spoilers abound)

You can also watch/download it here. In fact, that's recommended, because there are some minor glitches and timing issues that happened in the rendering process...and were then made worse by youtube. Thanks, yt!

Inspired by this video.  I thought it was cool and weird and wanted to make my own version, so I did. Not much else to say, really.


Also, a bonus:



Yup, only quality content allowed here.

My Room: Halloween Special

We're officially a week away from Halloween, so I've put my Halloween room up for download.

                                                                              

Here it is.

The Little Details

Style Savvy Fashion Forward gives you many jobs to do, and one of those jobs is designing clothes. You can design stuff for your own personal use or you can collaborate with the game's many brands in order to make things that you can sell to your customers. Each brand has its own set of pieces that it might commission you to make. For example, Purple Moon will sometimes commission you to make a stage outfit for a pop group.

One stage outfit, ready to go!

Suggestions

Now that I'm making the blog public, and will hopefully start getting some readers, I figured a post like this would be a good idea.

A Festive Fashion Show

I don't do fashion shows super often, but I figured it was about time for another one. So of course I did a Halloween-themed one!

My outfit.

Make My Day

I did say I would post my videos here. So, here's my new one.

Miscellaneous Style

Time for another random selection of Style Savvy pictures.

Let's-a-go!

Steampunk Style

Continuing with the costume theme, let's look at some steampunk.

Let's get steamy! Er, wait, that didn't come out right...

Breaking News

My cat is apparently afraid of cereal. That's all.

When I say my cat's afraid of everything, I'm not exaggerating.

Cereal is terrifying. A true nightmare.

Brand Highlight: Purple Moon

It's October and Halloween is on the horizon, so of course I have to do a post dedicated to my favorite brand. After all, Purple Moon (called Masquerade in the first game and Teatro Amare in the second) is essentially the world's most expensive costume shop.

On top of being a costume brand in general, they even have Halloween-specific stuff!

Miscellaneous Style

Some of my Style Savvy posts will have themes, like my last two, but others will just be random miscellaneous pictures. That's the kind of post this is.

Wearing a bikini to work like a true professional.

I Dream Of Genie

It's October and that means I've been putting together lots of costumes and cosplay in Style Savvy. We'll get to the cosplay later, but first let's start with the costume concept that I've played around with the most: genies.

Like so.

The Adventures of Bread Girl

I put together this bread/pastry themed outfit, and then had way too much fun with it. So let's check out The Adventures of Bread Girl!

Bread Girl in all her glory.
