stylicious

I'm constantly on the lookout for apps and organizational tricks that will make looking at my clothes and putting outfits together a lot easier, and also fun. So when a friend told me about the app Stylicious I instantly downloaded it and got started. In short, the app lets you create outfits using your own clothes. And the reason I'm telling you about this app when I am, is that it's been so convenient lately to help me plan my outfits for World MasterCard Fashion Week!

Covet

Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in so long, I had been experiencing some really bad computer problems, but now everything is fixed and so expect some posts coming your way!

Today I want to tell you all about an app that I have recently become addicted to: Covet Fashion. It's a game for your iPhone, where you shop, create outfits, and enter "events" where you win prizes and earn points. The points let you unlock new levels, where you can enter new events and earn more points.

There are daily events that you can enter and earn $500 in the game, to expand your wardrobe, and there are also events you can enter based on how much your closet value is ($10,000, $25,000, $50,000, and $100,000), which you get $100 for. Some events have requirements for what you have to wear, and some you can just create any kind of outfit.

The prizes you win are clothes and accessories for your avatar, but every once in a while there will be an event sponsored by a "featured brand" or a "giveaway", and whichever player has the top score for their outfit in the entire game can win a real life prize. If you ask me, that's pretty awesome.

This game is great because there are always new events that you can enter, and so even if you have unlocked all the levels, you can still continue playing and you'll never be bored. Covet is an interactive game that lets you vote on outfits created by other real players for each event, and other players vote on outfits you have made.

 

It's a great way to work on your styling techniques and see what other people think. But probably the best part about this game is that it uses real pieces from real designers. You can learn about the fabric of certain pieces, style, and brand image of real designers.

It's also great if you're on a budget in real life (like me) and can't always buy everything you want. You can still have an outlet for you shopping/fashion obsession and can play around with designer merchandise. And best of all, it's free! So try it out and tell me what you think in the comments!
