I N S P I R E D B Y D S Q U A R E D 2 | Tribute Review

And onto the final Tribute of the season, another brand new one, it's DSquared2! Really going in blind with this one because it's not a brand I'm familiar with at all. I'll admit from the start, that based on the advertising it doesn't really look like my style at all, and actually the vibes are a little Autumn/Winter with the red checks?! Let's get in and see the whole collection:

For sure, this one isn't my favourite of this seasons stores. The floors seem a bit disjointed with all different themes and none of them are particularly standing out to me to fit my style. So this one will be on the brief side - I also didn't see a lot of dolls wearing the pieces, so maybe others are feeling the same?! Accessories wise, there are quite a few options. There are quite a few pairs of shoes. The Pink Cowboy Boots are a fun idea, I just don't love the fit of them on the doll. The Flannel Boots are also a fun idea, these have a nice fit and I think these could be a popular Autumnal choice. There aren't so many bags on offer but I really love the Pink Heart Purse, such a cute bag and I love the design and colour a lot. There are also quite a couple of hats and pairs of socks in this release too, and some jewellery items. I picked up the DSquared2 Choker which is a minimalistic piece in gold which I think I'll get good wear from. Now onto the clothing. On the first floor the outerwear pieces definitely stand out, I really like the look of the Shearling Vest and Fur Lined Coat, these look like great pieces for the upcoming Autumn season. The second floor has more high-school/school-girl vibes. While it's not something I would likely wear, I do like the look of the Argyle Sweater Dress, super sweet and I love the colours. The design with the draped sweater over the shoulders is also really nice. The final floor is a lot darker with a lot of black coloured pieces. The Leather Pants look like a good pair of trousers, I like all the detail on them a lot and they fit the doll nicely. I also like the look of the Beaded Tank Top, my only complaint is the white trim on the neckline and sleeves, it would have looked so much better in a darker complementary colour. But I'm still going to give this one a go because the beading detail is super pretty.

F E A T U R E S

First up is harpie who wears both the Mesh Bedazzled Dress and the White Ring Sandals. The dress layers very nicely with all of the silvers and details on the other clothing pieces and I think the accessories added are perfect complements to the outfit, really looks amazing and I'm especially loving the gloves!

And then we have Bianca.Vos who also wears the Mesh Bedazzled Dress, with the addition of the DSquared Belt. The belt looks great here underneath the dress, I think the trousers are a great pairing for both of these items but work especially well with the style of the belt. The dress pops well against the dark of the trousers and the sheen of the grey top, think this is such a fun styling idea =)
