10 tips for casual elegance ⋆｡𖦹 °✩

Reading. Reading. Reading. Being well-read is so valuable!! Get cosy, pick up a Jane Austen, Emily Brontë, or maybe a Charles Dickens and spend some of your free time indulging in literature. <3

Soft-spoken and kind expressions. No one likes being around rude people. Being a bitch doesn’t make you look confident. Instead, be kind, make conversation, pay attention, engage, etc… trust me.

Dainty jewellery. Find some high-quality signature pieces.

Think before you speak. Take a moment to reflect on your thoughts so you can speak confidently and with intent without stumbling over your words!! <3 

Quality over quantity. Stop buying large amounts of cheap clothing; instead, save up and invest in higher-quality pieces that will actually last you. :)

Practice your handwriting. Having pretty and neat handwriting is a lovely little detail; extra points if you write in cursive. ;)

Drop the tiktok slag. “sticking out your gyat for the rizzler”… just stop, please.

Keep to yourself. Small circle, no bragging, gossips only with the closest, keep your plans to yourself.

Watch your posture. Straighten that back, honey. I see you. :))

Manicured nails. I do mine every two weeks. Almond-shaped, always dark red. <3

As always, Please feel free to add your own suggestions and tips in the comments!! ♡ ₊ ⊹

Shining Nikki 4th Anniversary!

Hello, Shining Designers! The 4th anniversary of the game is coming up, and the game devs did not disappoint with the livestream. Our anni hell is...

Whale's Fall: Flowers Bloom

I saw the announcement last year for the CN/TW anniversary livestream, and I was amazed by how beautiful the suits are! So much detail in each dress, and who would've guessed they'd make an entire outfit based on a dying whale?

The story is an emotional one. It takes place right after Vol. 3, Ch. 5, when you and Nikki return to the Ark to find everything...strangely silent.

(Fun Fact: If you go to the main page for Vol. 3, Ch. 5 right now, there's an icon for Flowers Bloom, but when you tap on the icon, it brings up the story for Sin Flower instead. It will probably update when the hell event officially comes.)

We also received three Redeem Codes! Make sure you use them soon. The first code, CHERISHEDMEMORIES, gives you:

-1000 pink gems

-777 stamina

-1,000,000 gold

-10 World Flower (the hell currency)

-20 Fantasy Tickets

-50 Refresh Cards

-12 UR Concept Shards

-100 SSR Concept Shards

-20 Memory Track

The second code is WHALESFALL, and it gives you:

-1000 pink gems

-250 stamina

-1,000,000 gold

-5 World Flower

-20 Fantasy Tickets

-50 Refresh Cards

-380 R Memory Keys

-128 SR Memory Keys

-10 SSR Concept Shards

And our last redeem code is FLOWERSBLOOM, which gives you:

-1000 pink gems

-250 stamina

-1,000,000 gold

(And in case you missed it on their other social media platforms, we have 4 extra Redeem Codes. Each of these gives an extra 100 pink gems and 500,000 gold)

-GEMS4U

-3KISSES

-BORN2SHINE

-1ANDONLY

The hosts also shared some fun stats from the past year:

-Stylists have greeted Nikki in the morning 3,559,882 times and in the evening 2,391,244 times.

-Stylists have bought Nikki 7,273,585 movie tickets, which is about 19,927 movies per day. (What movie do you think is her favorite?)

-Stylists introduced 131,898,138 outfits to Nikki's Closet at Home.

(And then an animated ad for Momo Jeans.)

-The top UR suits last year were:

--Gilded Shackles - Yisu (Time Corridor season 5)

--Windrest Woods - Aloysius (free anniversary suit)

--A Boat in Smoky Rain (collab)

-The top SSR suits last year were:

--Glorious Heart - Ophelia (New Chapter of the Glory event)

--Sparkling Dream - Dodora (free Rookie Road suit)

--Twinkle Twinkle - Leonid (first suit)

-The top makeup pieces last year were:

--Rose Liquid Balm (R rarity, lipstick)

--Spoiled Bunny (UR rarity, adornment - cheeks)

--Honeyed Brew (SSR rarity, reflection)

-Stylists have posted 295,873 stylings to the main menu.

-The most popular interactive scenes were:

--Crystal Stairway

--Twinkling Rhythms

--Parade Time

And then, the grand showcase of the anniversary suits:

-Vast Blossom - Nikki

--Attribute: Pink/Sweet

--Rarity: UR (special)

--Awakened Suit: Cradle Era

-Whales Toward Sea - Aeon and Marina

--Attribute: Gold/Elegant

--Rarity: UR

--Awakened Suit: Cosmic Melody

(You might have seen Older Marina before, as the designer for the top-up suit Broken & Chainsaw. It's her only Sexy attribute suit, because now she's an adult. Her "growth spurt" actually comes from the anniversary event.)

There were three lucky draws for those who watched the livestream.

-Lucky Draw #1: WHALESANDFLOWERS

--Rewards: 20 winners receive 1200 pink gems

-Lucky Draw #2: SHININGDRESS

--Rewards: 1 of 5 new IRL dresses from Shining Nikki

-Lucky Draw #3: BESTNIKKI

--Rewards: 3 winners receive 3600 pink gems

And like last year, Paper got two real-life designers to make pieces for Shining Nikki's anniversary. The first is Angie Wu, a jewelry artist who made a breathtaking opal necklace inspired by Nikki's blooming dress.

You want to know the best part? This is the grand prize for the Ocean Reverie fanart contest! Only one lucky person can claim this necklace, so get your creative energies flowing now.

The second designer is Valentine Moon, and she spent countless hours sewing and crafting a cosplay version of Nikki's flower dress!

The voice actors for Nikki and Momo, Emma Ballantine and Emma Tate respectively, share their anniversary wishes, and then we get a new single to end the livestream!

A lot of amazing things to look forward to! I hope you have a wonderful anniversary, Shining Designers!
