Explore Smallwear with Coco SmallWorlds

Hello there dear citizens, it's a pleasure to be here! I'm Coco SmallWorlds, and I'll  be coming to you from within the Chronicle every week when my new column is launched in the first week of February! I'm SmallWorlds very own virtual fashionista - I like to call myself a Virtualista!

Perhaps you are just like me, barely able to tear yourself out of SmallWear...so busy creating fantastic new looks. If this sounds familiar, I've got something you're absolutely going to love!

Coco's Weekly Style Icon Competition

Each and every week you'll be able to enter your outfits into my weekly style competition - click here to enter your look this week! There's a chance for you to win one of two prizes of 2000 Gold if I choose you as one of my two weekly "SmallWorlds Style Icons".

Have you visited Smallwear yet? Oh it's just divine... always such a thrill to come up with a really unique new look. I've seen some truly chic citizens walking around since we opened the store. Don't be shy darlings, play around with all the different color combinations, grab some nail varnish and jewellery, and then it's time to accessorize, accessorize, accessorize - and you'll come up with a truly unique look that's bound to turn heads.

Shelley - our resident NPC

Oh, and have you met Shelley, the SmallWear NPC? She's really a very sweet girl, always willing to help and you can have some really funny conversations with her. Pop in and meet her - she really adds an extra dimension to the experience of updating your wardrobe!

I'd like to take you on a short tour around Smallwear - I'll show you some of what's available for guys and girls, and I'll show you what Dan SmallWorlds and Kent Kronkite ended up choosing (with a little help from Coco of course!).

Try before you Buy!

Oh what a terrible morning it was when I awoke in my long johns on the day of the 2.2 release. Even though I was warned, nothing darlings could have prepared me for the shock. I let out a very big shriek, which had Kent running to my rescue, dear man. He of course was also wearing long johns, which only made me shriek once again!

Once I had recovered enough, I braved my way to Smallwear to make my clothing choices. I'd never been out in public in my underwear before, so it was really rather a challenge for poor poor Coco!

I'm sure that like me, you'll love the "Try before you Buy" feature, meaning you can experiment with different colors before you make your purchase choices. Just click on any item and then click Try On. Keep trying till you find the perfect look - it's delicious fun!

Clothing Vouchers

It was such a relief to discover clothing vouchers in my inventory to pay for some of my clothing. I found that if I had enough vouchers for an item, my vouchers would come up as a payment option.

Really, getting dressed up again was so much fun I quickly forgot my terrible embarrassment!  I simply LOVE my purple dress, black shoes and black "punk" belt.

And darlings, just look at those stockings! I could not resist a pair. You can even customize the stripes! I chose black and purple - Fabulous! There's plenty more luscious offerings that we ladies have available - Oooooo I love it!

Smallwear for Women

Here's a few views of some of the options in Women's clothing - simply gorgeous dresses; short and long skirts; baggy & skinny jeans. Very stylish tops and jackets. And all in every color imaginable. You'll have to come in to see the full range. Here's a shot of me in those hilarious long johns!

And another shot of more gorgeous items. Really, you'll simply have to come visit and see the range for yourself!

Oh and lets not forget those accessories... they'll really jazz your look.

Smallwear for Men - Dan & Kent get dressed!

When I met up with Dan in SmallWear he declared that he felt that the long johns were the most comfortable thing he'd worn all year! I told him very strongly that under no circumstances was he going to be allowed to keep them on. He was a little resistant, but once he took a look at the options available, I think you'll agree that he made some great choices! 

Kent the dear man, was so happy to have a little assistance... I really tried to lead him into some more interesting fashion territory, but he is very attached to his style and really, I must say that it does rather suit him! He would only try on his new outfits on in privacy, so here we are in Honesty's space (while she was out!). What do you think of these new looks for Kent?
