DHOF Red Carpet showdown

Hey dollies! Today the Dollywood Hall of Fame debuted, hosted by Bianca Delevigne, a HUGE red carpet was held, themed Punk: Chaos to Couture, following up I will be reading discussing my picks for best looks and worst looks, so here we go!

BEFORE THAT, yours truly wore:

You can gag now.
Best:

Order is least favourite to favourite 


 Sdoreymenano

I think this is overall a good look, the hair seems to not be a perfect match, In my opinion a high pony or updo would have made this look edgier, it was appropriate for the night but overall forgettable




Agrima44
Another perfectly beautiful look, the pants made this look a lot edgier but im still missing something, the detailing is splendid but dare I say it loos flat? sometimes more, is more.


Pau.Cam.Arena

What an stunning look, the dress itself is perfection and the way the feathers have been worked make for a really editorial punk look, In this case I think Alex could've gone for bolder make up, that would have given this look the no. 1 spot in my list


SmileyBither

This dress won me over really fast, it's an intricate mix between old hollywood glamour, and punk, what made me choose it to be in this position was that regardless of the feminine styling the dress itself carried the theme trough and trough, props to you!



Kadet
This kind of mummy outfit was everything for me, it's like a fallen angel style dress, at least that's my impression, the fact that it's white makes it stand out from the crowd and truthfully the styling was perfect


Jodie55

Bianca wore this amazing cutout dress, if you know me you probably know i hate cut outs, but for this specific carpet I think the dress fit perfectly, it's kind of an S&M Bondage style cage dress which adds up to the whole chaotic theme!


JJGangSteven

Minimalism at it's best, usually im not a fan of this trend, but I understand it, and I appreciate someone taking a different approach towards this event, my only complaint is that they could have made it into a full length gown, this was a gala after all, but hey that's punk


Theshintstar 
 At first glance I thought, "That's one tacky outfit" but the more I looked at it the more I liked it, considering the theme of the night this was exactly what I expected to see, bold, punk, really torn up, style, and this is a perfect example of that, this was gonna be either on my top or my worst, and considering that it was the most appropriate according to the theme, It's amongst the best


Now My best dressed of the night
Isabella8013

Yes. just yes, 








WORST
*Disclaimer: I love all of these people*
 Order is: Bad- Worst




Nounacoolrock  

I love this gal, but what happened? the proportions of the body are really off, no waist at all, next time call and I'll waist train you!



HannahJohns1 

She wrapped her silk sheets around and called it a night


Donty123 

I don't necessarily hate this outfit, I just hate the fact that it doesn't match the theme whatsoever 

sziszi92

Trust me, I love a shocking outfit, but this is borderline ridiculous had she been standing up this would have gone straight to the top



ItsOkToSHine

The theme wasn't your drunk elder aunt trying to hook up with the staff


Hsm3rocks11011

Just no... 


Stephenia

You forgot your face, and just about everything else 


And my worst: Nimka4Eva

Now Nimka, I know you are capable of producing a beautiful mix of punk and angelic, you have done it before, this is what landed you as my worst dressed, my expectations were crushed

My thoughts on: Kendall Jenner

Hey everybody! It's been a while since I post here, A couple days ago I read an open letter a girl wrote to Kendall Jenner I'll link that HERE

So I've been giving this letter a lot of thought, before going in with this interview It's appropiate to mention that I come from an average middle class Mexican family, so there's not a real personal motive for me to be more on Kendalls side on this one

The open letter begins saying: 

"Take a moment and remove yourself from your current situation, if you can, to a life that isn’t riddled with excess and only hearing the word “yes” to your wants and requests."

Well now somebody is telling us what to do with our lifes based on an vague idea of what these are like, that's cool

These model writing the letter then goes on and rants about being from a Third world country and mentions that the only way to get a better life is by being a "High fashion model", moving at the age of 17 and living in precarious conditions while your agency's account is built up in debt. 

In a very passive agressive way she says, "Take this into perspective, Miss Jenner"

Moving along she takes you to a mental place where you already lived trough all of this, and you get your big break in Fashion Week with Marc Jacobs, she mentions the fear of your outfit being cut from the show and the struggle that is going trough fitting (poor you being responsible with your job, such a sad situation) and to being the ending of this letter she says:  

"But wait, isn’t that a reality TV star over there in hair and makeup? Yea, that’s definitely a Kardashian or something. What is she doing here? Did she take the subway? Was she at the casting? What agency is she with? I didn’t see her last season … Does she need MORE fame? MORE money? A green card perhaps? Doesn’t she get enough cash from that show that all of ignorant America glamorizes? Didn’t her sister have sex with someone on camera and profit from the video sales to get their family its new line of limelight? This girl didn’t do and doesn’t owe half of what you did (remember, you’re NOT “KJ” in this scenario) to get here today, that much is certain. Her mommy surely called a top agency, got her in the door and the design houses just chose to milk her fame like the cash cow that it is. One by one like dominos from Vogue to Givenchy, fashion is selling out to the ignorant masses for money. What happened to the art, the cerebral part of fashion? Did it really all die with Alexander McQueen?"

Although all of this plays with our heart strings, reading carefully trough it and analyzing her words she is first bashing, someone who is giving her the opportunity of her life, a once in a lifetime opportunity for that matter, then she goes ahead and calls every viewer "ignorant", Now all of the mentioned above can be viewed from different perspectives and different ideas, to me it's pointless to rant about this, you have once chance to show who you are on the runway, why stress yourself out with something you can't control


But this is surely not what I want to talk about in this post. I believe NOBODY should apologize for the life they were born in, telling Kendall Jenner she can't model because she is a Reality TV Star is like telling that Third World Country woman she can't because of her ethnical, social or economical background, I didn't choose to have the life I have, It just happened to be that way, and this model wouldn't be complaining if it was her who had Kendall's spot, we are born in different situations, we all have our own stories and our own past, the point of modeling is being able to leave all of this behind and transporting yourself to wherever the designer needs you to be, regardless of whomever is in that runway with you.

As a conclusion to this, why shouldn't someone be allowed to live his or her life? Be thankful for the opportunities YOU have, instead of promoting hatred towards someone because of the opportunities this individual has had, as C.S. Lewis once said "Hardship often prepares ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny" Take this into account the next time you bash someone for having a certain type of lifestyle that's probably easier than you own.

Don't get bitter, just get better.

Miss Stardoll World

Everyone wants to be famous. Humans love to be noticed, to stand out from the crowd, to be able to say to themselves "I always knew I was special" or "You can do anything if you put your mind to it" or "I knew I deserved this."

MSW is Stardoll's way of making you feel special. If you even make it past the first round, there is a feeling of satisfaction, a feeling of achievement.

But what makes winning an online pageant a feeling of validation?

At the surface, it seems like validation. It seems like you have joined the ranks of the elite, the important. Stardoll puts a lot of effort into making you think MSW is worth competing in.

If you win MSW, you get Stardollars, Starcoins, automatic Royalty, free Superstar membership, etc. This makes it seem like a great deal. Sure, maybe you spend a few dollars of real money to get Stardollars to spend on broadcasts to promote your doll, but surely if you won you would get your money's worth back, plus some. Maybe this is true, but millions of dolls actively compete in MSW each year, each of them spending money to promote themselves. What are the chances you will actually win?

Stardoll has created the perfect set up to make themselves a huge amount of money each fall. They even upped the price of broadcasts from 5 Stardollars to 8 Stardollars, so that you can't buy as many broadcasts as you normally could with your Stardollars, causing people to buy even more Stardollars to send even more Stardollars.

The first year I joined Stardoll, I spent over $100 in real money promoting myself. Of course, nothing came of it. Most of the people who said they voted for me actually didn't, and I didn't even advance to the semi-finals. At 13, $100 was a huge amount of money for me, and I regretted it for a long time after when I didn't have the money to buy anything I wanted in real life. It was a waste of time, money and effort to run for MSW.

Before you go, I'd like to leave you a fact that might help you decide whether or not to spend your money on MSW.

Your chances of winning are 1 / 336 223 351, or one in over three hundred million chances of winning. Is MSW really worth your money?
