Awaking to an unexpected announcement of LE left me excited, normally I find a decent piece which I love - this release provided exactly that. Being a winter theme, shades of red, khaki, navy, white, and black were present. I loved the colour theme, both in-keeping with the more subtle colours of winter, yet still maintaining consistency with every other piece.
Eight hours after its release, only two pieces were sold out - something which I did not anticipate. In my opinion, I think the appeal of LE is slowly dwindling down. Part of this, I think, is due to the increasing prices of the items on offer; this collection saw items priced at nearly 200sd. With tribute season becoming such a predominant part of our Stardoll community - the appeal of LE is suffering slightly. One factor that I do not think was considered, is that hello, it's tribute season...why spend 200sd on an LE dress, when Saint Laurent and Versace has just been released. Hm. Maybe it's just me who feels this way, but maybe LE prices need a bit of a makeover.
ANYWHO, BACK TO THE COLLECTION REVIEW. The collection as a whole was very pleasing to the eye, and did offer a wide variety of items. Of course, jackets were the first to sell-out, something I am noticing is becoming increasingly popular. Three floors were released, providing fourteen items to peruse. My top picks on offer; a stunning white set (look 1), cut out denim shorts (look 2), metallic khaki boots (floor 2), and the Celine inspired dress (look 4). As you can see, I have styled a select few of the items keeping true to my own style. The first look, I thought that both the blazer and culottes were too perfect to have separate. Keeping them together, I styled with basic black accessories, giving off a chic boss lady look. Look two, slightly more 'in-trend' inspired - think Tammy Hembrow, she is exactly who I think of when I see this look. Third, styling the navy blue cropped jumper, I thought the christmas gift-o-metre grey jeans would look great alongside the navy. The white detailing on the jumper encouraged me to use white accessories to bring together the whole look. Finally, an unconventional look, the Celine dress. I didn't think that I would find myself attracted to this dress at all, however, the print is just simply to die for. The piece truly is a statement alone, so some simple strappy heels were all that was needed to complete the look.
All in all, a good collection, but as stated above, the downfall of LE is upon us I think. Did you like the collection?
