Dear and gentle reader, this writer was most eager to return here to this blog and elaborate on yet another piece for this column. 

I confess that, carried away by the inspirations and inclinations of Lady Whistledown (holy mention to Bridgerton 🙏🏽), I made a rather curious choice to highlight in this edition.

In particular, during my spare hours, I am a compulsive reader, and my intimate circle of friends knows well that I live between two extremes of reading. What I call fierce comfort reads, which are my period romances (incidentally, water-sausage clichés), and the psychological destruction reads, in which I confirm my need for psychotropics and daily visits to my therapist (may God strongly bless him for surviving the end of each session), which are Dark romances with content banned in over 80 countries…

Within this line of thought, I am currently in my Detox era, and to enhance this moment, nothing better than the release of a new season of the period-drama series adapted from Julia Quinn’s books.

Benedict Bridgerton (my husband and the most handsome Bridgerton brother) is the star of this season, where he shares the screen with Sophie (who, in this adaptation, was cast as an Asian actress to portray the character). Recreating the Cinderella tale, the season is pure luxury.

But after so much story, where does the plot of the chosen highlight fit in!?

Hmmmm, if you’ve made it this far, it’s because you were curious to know…

A true gossip, aren’t you!? 👀😏

I don’t judge—I share the same feeling 🤣😅.

While visiting some users, I came across the doll Ciera.

At first, I already knew her from other interactions in the platform’s annual competitions, but when I loaded her suite, I was struck by her beauty, her look composition, and the complete ensemble perfectly harmonizing with the interior of her suite.

Multiverse madness from my brain.

It may not make sense to you readers, but in my head, it was a movie scene… 🍿🎥

For this edition of SPINNING THROUGH STARDOLL, we present the stunning, ornamental, and harmonious Ciera, with her impeccable and realistic full face, and her period look that is extremely striking, rich in detail, and beautifully composed… Applause to the diva behind such exquisite taste.

For the next chapter, perhaps a scandal!?

So make sure to provide me with the most truthful information (gossip) from the Stardoll world.

Dear and gentle reader, I eagerly await the next article…

Rivotril on standby, Xoxo 💋!

When visiting Ciera, on my random playlist, incredibly and coincidentally enough, BERGHAIN was playing.

The Young Hollywood collection was released today with a one hour delay compared to the time announced yesterday on Instagram. The release was supposed to happen at 6:00 PM CEST, but it actually was released at 7:00 PM CEST (with a few minutes of delay). At least they added a countdown on Instagram, so we could check the correct release time.

At first, the store appeared with three new floors, showcasing outfits inspired by the Grammy Awards 2026 and the Golden Globes 2026. However, some players noticed that there were more items listed in the catalogue. Shortly after, Stardoll posted on Instagram explaining that the fourth floor had a technical issue and it was released almost one hour after the official store launch.

 

Another issue in this release was related to the special offer Lady Gaga Dress announced yesterday. For a short time, the dress was mistakenly released as part of the collection and was available for purchase, but it’s no longer possible to get it now.

What are your thoughts on the outfit choices? I personally bought more pieces than I thought I would, and I really expected them to include the Golden Globe statuette this time, especially since we’ve had other award items in past releases. Now we’ll have to wait and see if it shows up next year.

Love is in the air! With the start of February, we finally got the release of the new OotM themed “Feel the Love” (although, sadly, it seems to be receiving a lot of hate from some players).

The outfits chosen for this month were suggested by the dolls ashilei and riane. One brings a more sexy vibe, while the other goes for a fairytale-like aesthetic, still keeping the look romantic.

Ashilei’s outfit has 7 pieces and costs a total of 117sc and 77sd with the Royalty discount. The downside is that there’s no jewelry included, but at least the accessories are quite nice.

Riane’s look includes 6 pieces, priced at 108sc and 71sd, also with the Royalty discount. The earrings are beautiful, and I wish we had some additional jewelry to match, but it’s understandable that they weren’t included in the original concept since the cape would cover most of it anyway.

This time, there aren’t any items available for male dolls. For March, the OotM theme will be “Spring Awakening”. The deadline to send outfit suggestions on Instagram or Facebook is February 20th.

Will you be submitting any looks for it?

It’s no longer news that this week’s tribute release was inspired by Valentino. It’s also not the first time we’ve had a tribute dedicated to the brand, but this one was requested as a homage to Valentino, who passed away recently.

The store has the usual three floors and also features a new interior inspired by the catwalk from the Valentino FW25 fashion show. The collection includes clothing inspired by the Resort 25, Ready-to-Wear SS26, Ready-to-Wear FW25 and Pre-Fall 25 and 26 collections, as well as a few pieces that weren’t shown on the runway but can be found in the brand’s online store.

This time, the only starcoins items are the Green Cat Eye Valentino Sunglasses and the Cherries Gold Earrings on the second floor. The pieces are cute, but I wish they had included at least one more sc item, like in the other tributes released so far this season.

We also received a special free gift for everyone who logs in during the week: a poster featuring Valentino, which was a nice tribute (I was hoping for something similar for Armani as well, who also passed away not long ago), along with the usual special offer for stardollars and superstar purchases.
