Alexander McQueen




Today's post I dedicated to Alexander McQueen.There is nothing interesting on  Stardoll,so it is pretty hard to find a subject to write about.
Lee Alexander McQueen (17 March 1969 – 11 February 2010) was a British fashion designer and couturier.He is known for having worked as chief designer at Givenchy from 1996 to 2001 and for founding his own Alexander McQueen label.



It is hard to imagine that someone with such great talent is not alive anymore,I can't tell how much I feel sorry for him.But good thing is that legends never die...
I wanted to show you some Alexander McQueen's creations and Stardoll versions,here they are:






















Here's something really intersting,as you can see from picture below,there are two pairs of same shoes.But are they really same? Can you see the difference?



Here's a little help...

Only difference between these shoes is their name (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻)
Just because of the name you have to pay more,yeah I know,it's not fair.
There are many other clothes on Stardoll inspired by Alexander McQueen's masterpieces,but it is hard to find users on Stardoll who have them,most of them are really rare.








Here are some other clothes made by Alexander McQueen,I think that Stardoll should launch something like "Tribute to Alexander McQueen",it would be an early Christmas present,for us,McQueen fans.




 











I absolutely love the last picture,and YES THAT IS HELENA BONHAM-CARTER *-*

Owl statue

When you search Starpoints things in Suite Shop you'll find an Fallen Angel Owl Statue.I had no idea that this statue exsist, until recently .It cost only 60 starcoins , too low for such a beautiful thing.( This doesn't sound like Stardoll)



As you can see you must be level 64 to buy it .
 Pity for lower levels.




What Are the Roles of Owls in Mythology?


Owls play an important role in the mythology of many cultures around the world. In mythology, they can be companions to the gods, evil spirits, wise observers or the embodiment of natural forces. In many cultures, owls are messengers of death or otherwise associated with the powers of the underworld. This negative connotation my arise from the fact that owls are nocturnal; animals that are active at night often have negative roles in myth and folklore.

The most famous owls in mythology are probably those associated with Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and warfare, patron deity of the city of Athens. Artists depicted Athena with an owl on one shoulder. Owls may have been connected to the goddess because of their ability to see well at night and their large eyes, which evoked her epithet, "bright-eyed Athena." As a result of this association, owls continue to be symbols of wisdom in the Western world. One genus of owls retains the name "Athene."

Mythology from other parts of the world often give owls a more sinister role. Although the Romans adopted many elements of Greek religion, Roman folklore also featured dangerous owl-like creatures that could suck out the life force of an infant. Similarly, in Arabian mythology, owls were birds of ill omen. Legend had it that owls would hoot over the graves of murdered men, and their eggs were thought to have supernatural properties. Similar beliefs are known to exist or have existed in sub-Saharan Africa, where owls play the role of harbingers of death or bringers of ill luck.

In South and Central America, owls are again connected with death and the underworld. In Mayan mythology, Xibalba, "the place of fear," is ruled by two death gods, Hun-Came ("One Death") and Vucub-Came ("Seven Death"). Their messengers are four spirits who take the shape of owls. Similarly, the Aztec god Mictlantecuhtli, god of the dead, appears as a skeleton wearing a headdress of owl feathers.

The  Native American nations of North America had a wide variety of different roles for owls in their mythology. In some cultures, the owl played the role of a messenger from the underworld, while in others, such as the Sioux, it was a guardian which protected the entrance to the afterlife. The Passamaquoddy nation told a story in which the bird was a helpful spirit that provided humans with magical gifts.

Occidere Taedium


Yesterday I've done some makeovers inspired by real life models , since I didn't have anything else to do . I could write about new collections on Stardoll but they're not worth mentioning. Stardoll shoud really stop  releasing clothes with such bright colours!

See what I mean?
They irritate my eyes!





Back to my makeovers :

Gothic letters and symbols

This post isn't about fashion (for those who don't read the title xD).Lately,we don't have a lot subjects to talk and write about.It gets really boring on Stardoll with all those colorful clothes and flower patterns,sometimes it gets really annoying.After a daily dose of depression on Stardoll,next thing that I do,I go to the Google and searh for random stuff.Today something attracted my attention...
It was Gothic alphabet

The Gothic alphabet is an alphabet for writing the Gothic language, created in the 4th century by Ulfilas (or Wulfila) for the purpose of translating the Christian Bible.
You can find more on Wikipedia,I was to lazy to read all those things,and the little piece that I have read is really complicated and hard to understand.I will just upload some pictures here,so we can all admire to the beauty of this alphabet.




You can download on the internet,font for Microsoft Word.
Font that I have used is called "A Gothique Time",it looks pretty cool,you can edit your presentation on Stardoll with it.






Here are some symbols,although I can't tell are they really gothic symbols.









This is not symbol,it's just a beautiful picture that I have found and I have to share it with you guys (If you like this picture you can visit Art Gallery by Anne Stokes *click here* )



And for the end...





you all know how much I love random pictures xD
