Yea the catalog is ok better than the last 3.. I haven't time to check everything out yet and NO time to post pics today.. I noticed a new dressing room which I"m most excited about it's called dandilion I think anyway it's 22 gems I bought it it's yellow that's why and goes PERFECT with the spring display etc. If you got it in the spring box from last year. I bought the sunglass display it's coins huge..lol kinda looks like an apartment building with sunglasses on top...LOL The floor tile bubbles is coins that'll come in handy when I bring out my summer decor MUCH later on. Will go nice with the aquarium counters and the tall aquarium pilar.

[mademani]

There's also a new box, I bought two items. There seems to be a new display, unfortunately I got a chair and a stupid vase....Hope that someone gets the display and that it's pretty! Post pictures please! ;)

[mademani]

Btw the Eclectic chair is nice, but yet again....anither white chair! Grrrrrrrr

[mamareader02]

Got the eclectic display(2 place),can't post pics,but anybody who wants to see can come take a peek(also got pink elephant and some kinda sofa

[soclassymom]

The displays are cute but the rest of the box not worth it they are so ugly !!!!!!!! Elephant!!??? And phone ?? @_@

[newmoonfashion]

I would prefer to have the clothes the display girls are wearing instead of the last two costume catalogues...
The hats are cute, though

[jojopeanut]

I would like to know what the phone looks like and what place it is in the box.. It could kinda be cool. Another catalog I just can't see me taking the time to make and display. really last 3 updates hasn't had me much intrest that's ok it's saving me money..LOL but I might open the box for the phone slight possibality.

Ill add you to take a peek. Thanks!

[lilylunalove]

I like the catalog cause I like rainbows. :p Too bad I didn't see it yet in the catalogs when I ordered stuff. Only saw the items in the closet right after it. Bought the box once and got this:

I'd love that runway display though!

[jojopeanut]

I got the fascinator display it's 3rd place too. I like it much better than than the other display. I can't upload to photo bucket just yet though. I also got some eclectic benches 2nd place prizes they look nice red and white design. I was trying for the phone.

I got this but it was second place prize, I'm confused??

[lilylunalove]

I got this but it was second place prize, I'm confused??
It was? =O That's weird. I've noticed that before. Some box item was a different level than in a pic posted in the master box thread. Why would they be different for different players?

Oooohh! That fascinator display! I want that too! Dang boxes!

[OpeningCeremony]

ok i just opened the box a few times:
-eclectic phone 4th place
-eclectic bench 3rd place
-fascinator (hat) 2nd place

i'm on iOS, seems like the 2nd and 3rd place prizes get switched up depending on which device. but i would guess that the 1st prize is the eclectic runway display.

[sweetbeginings003]

I don't know how these boxes work, but something isn't right when people are getting items at different place prizes. That is not fair to all players. I opened that box and that Avatar item 'fascinator' was second prize, but if others have gotten it at 3rd prize items then I should have gotten something else!

[newmoonfashion]

My thoughts exactly...
Maybe that's why iOS users have more trouble getting 2nd prices - like the pucker up display from Valentine box.
I don't think the fascinator display is 3rd price when I (an iPad player) open the box...
Would love that - so pretty.
Think 1st prize is an avatar dress to go with the hat.
Please post more pictures...

Can you post a screenshot showing the places of your items?
These should be the same for all players.
If I can get different screenshots I can report this over.

I'm on Android and just to clairfy this is a 3rd place.

[jojopeanut]

Yea and I can't get the phone th phone 4th place go figure..LOL to funny post a pic of it please.

[sweetstuff525]

The same thing happened on th vday box ... All places were mixed up I got 2nd but got a 3rd place item

You see the avatar item 'Fascinator shows 2nd place just like it did for me. Other players got that same Fascinstor for 3rd place prize, why are the mix up?

to me it seems like android has the 2nd/3rd place switched with how iOS designates the 2nd/3rd place. i'm just wondering if the odds are the same for each respective item on both platforms. but it didn't seem like that many people got the Pucker Up display at 3rd place with the Hearts box.

[callofcthulhu]

This catalogue reminds me of punky Brewster and all things wonderful about the 80s. My inner chikd is doing cartwheels and loving it! Now to go blow a bunch of money to get the fascinator...

[jojopeanut]

I hope we get a catalog to go with the fascinator display. doubtful though sense it's a box item.

Got the display the 2nd try jojo. No fascinator though :-(

[callofcthulhu]

Would love a catalogue that matches any of the items in the display. Seeing it up close it has some great styles

[usc4500]

I received Eclectic Runway as a first place...my first ever! And Fascinator Display 3rd...there is also a small vase (eh) as 4th place

[kooky panda]

Thanks for the photos guys, I will flag this over.

[jojopeanut]

I know :( we would look snazy in those faxcinators..lol

[jojopeanut]

I mean fascinators.. Feel so english all of a sudden. I wonder if the queen approves..lol

[lilylunalove]

I like the fascinator too. I'm just not sure what to wear with it.

http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/7646/screenshot2013022003112.png

[jojopeanut]

I know I like the all black though. Do you have the black lace type dress it's oh the one that came in the catalog with a quilted like clutch with gold kiss lock closer. And the leaporad shoes from the summer time.

[lilylunalove]

I actually had the black lace dress on for a while with the fascinator before this one. And I don't have the leopard shoes, but I've been meaning to get them at some point.

[jojopeanut]

I didn't mean you had to wear it with those shoes how did it look with that dress and those black shoes would be fine. I bet it looks just great :) either way you decide..

[katyskloset]

Love the update but can't seem to win the items I'm after. Got several elephants, the phone, couch, chair...

[katyskloset]

Picture of chair

Here's a pic of phone

[maddsassy]

I guess I'm the only one not feeling this update. The only thing I like is the catalog, hate that's it's 14 hrs. Well at least I'm saving my gems, thanks Teamlava.

[sweetstuff525]

I like the update buttt I'm not opening the box since I never get what I want and I want the displays

For me, puckee up, was 2nd place. There does seem to be a mixup just like there was for the autumn box.

I love this bench. Looks so cool in this part of my shop.

[jojopeanut]

Ok so should I get 2 of eclectic windows and put one where the current window is and one where the bridge picture is?

[mamareader02]

Have to clarify-i got the fascinator display(I called it eclectic cause I forget the right names for stuff,mom brain)it was 2 place,according to my little"congrats,blah blah blah"window.on an iPhone 4

[newmoonfashion]

Just bought 12 boxes... And no display. Just 4 vases and duplicates of other 3rd and 4th prizes.
I have bought around 50 boxes in FS and never won 1st and only 2 2nd prizes - avatar clothes. Never the displays.
I don't get it!
Plaease let os have the option to buy the displays out of box for a higher prize than normal, if we want to.
I don't really like the lower prizes in this box, but again, took my chances.
But still, it's not fair if Android users get the display as 3rd prize - then I would have a chance to get it as I got 2 benches and and elefant.

[soclassymom]

Ok I tried 4 times and got 2 bench and phone and elephant ??? I won't put them out on my store, maybe just the bench

[dalula]

The fascinator looks cute. hoping for a lacy/formal catalog to go with it.

I got 2 fascinator displays. I'd give you 1 if I could

So do I the last two catalogs aren't my taste. Hoping next week for something IMO more adult like.

[jackar]

The worst box ever , everything is sooo completely indifferent , only fascinator is beautiful. WON'T OPEN.

[newmoonfashion]

Okey, gem sale this morning..
Bought 6 more boxes (that's 18 now) and still no display...
Bought the Valentine box 20 times and only got 3rd and 4th.
TL this is not right.
I accept you have to try the box several times... But 18-20 and still no display...
It's only 2nd prize...
I play iOS and have a feeling android have better chances - see earlier posts!

[lelaina752]

I would love the option to buy displays out of the box since I have NO luck with boxes. I really love the Pucker Up Display but couldn't get it despite many attempts. I had to give up. I would similarly love the Fascinator Display in the new box but I'm not even going to try. I'm just too discouraged. Some of the stuff is really cute but it's just too annoying to spend so much and not get what you want (and have so many duplicates that I'll never use). I wouldn't mind spending the money if I knew I would get the display I wanted. Right now, I am just fed up with boxes. I don't know if I'll ever buy a box again. I'll have to really think about it.

I'm on Android and I don't think Android users have any better chances. The 2nd/3rd screens may be "switched" in the pictures but I think the chances are the same (i.e., I have almost no "3rd" place prizes on Android which are "2nd" place prizes for IOS users). I think all of the boxes are like that (I just bought the groovy box the other week on my Android phone and got a 3rd place prize which appeared as a 2nd place prize on my phone).

Oh, fair enough.

I wish there would be some kind of certainty to at least get one 2nd prize when buying boxes. For instance, for every 10 box bought. Some wil get lucky on their first tries, others will have to buy the 10 boxes, but at least they know they get a 2nd prize item in the end for the 240 gems spend. For 1st prize it should be harder of course.

I don't mind spending real money, I just want some value for them.
This is too much gambling.
My box limit will from now on be 10 - if at al...

The two tables, I don't like, and the vase in this box... Worst box item since the steel roses!

Im om ios and openee this box twice and got the horrid elephant and lamp. Boo!
I opened the paris chest just about 16 times and got no second place prizes.
Almost all of the other boxes, ive opened no more than 5 to 10 times ans got first and second place. I think luck is all there is. Its like with castle, when they told us our chances were raised to get a certain item. In all of the boxes i believe they have a quota allowed and some people fit in and some dont.

Dont get me started on farm. Ill explode! Ive been opening so many boxes and have YET to get anything i like. And the prizes are far worse there than here on fashion.

Oh, and not to further feed into my conspiracy about luck, ive a neighbor with eight pucker up displays. Crazy!

[Baraze]

I got that bright pink monstrosity! Even if they started making baby clothes for us to order and place, that THING still wouldnt fit in good anywhere. I have never sold an item ive gotten but THAT up above, may make me reconsider. Boo!

[thatgirl444]

I love the elephant....it goes perfectly with an eclectic style...now we just need a Buddha statue :)

[sweetbeginings003]

Meh! Opened the box once and got the 'fascinator' which is ok. Don't plan on wasting gems on opening it again as my luck with boxes lately has been a total disaster. Trying for that pucker up display over 32 times and no luck left me with a bitter taste of reality, TL only looks out to fill their pockets!

[xoxoBabyGirl]

Can you post a screenshot showing the places of your items?
These should be the same for all players.

The same thing happened with the Valentine's Box. Will this box get fixed too?

[dalula]

I like the fascinator display but not the checkered floor. It would look better as a simple all white floor in my opinion. too scared to try the box as, knowing my luck, I'll end up with the phone, vase, or elephant.

[lilylunalove]

I didn't mean you had to wear it with those shoes how did it look with that dress and those black shoes would be fine. I bet it looks just great :) either way you decide..
No no no, I thank you! Went to try on the leopard shoes and I loved them with the black skirt and shirt so now I have that combo on. :)

I like the elephant too. Wasn't what I initially wanted, but I like it now.

[jojopeanut]

We're lucky to have 2 updates in a weeks time however just thinking how giddy with glee I would be if they did it again this week & gave us another red carpet catalog. It is Oscar night Sunday..hint hint nudge nudge TL ;)

I agree. I just love the glam look, especially the old Hollywood style and think they should have a whole old Hollywood style theme.. box and all. I absolutely love the fascinator display but was real hesitant after the pucker up display fiasco. I mean I usually get one 2nd place item by the 5th time I open the box but I opened that thing way more than that and got only 3rd and 4th place items. I have come to the conclusion that the valentines chest is cursed. Anyways, I decided to chance it and open the eclectic box ONE time and got the fascinator display! I am so thrilled right now! I really would like the fascinator for my avatar as well but I'm going to quit while I'm ahead lol.

How often do we get goals?

Just an update here to let everyone know that the mismatch prize # issue is being worked on at the moment. Hopefully this will be corrected and the information will display correctly in the near future. Sorry about the confusion this causes.

I bought items today that are still showing an incorrect ranking. Are refunds being given? I have never whined about a box item Ive gotten, even if it was something unworthy of the price that I didnt want. But to get continous 2nd place items that are clearly 3rd and 4th place is upsetting.

On android, i got five 2nd place items. The elephant and the bench! Clearly marked incorrectly. Im livid.

[QueenAssassin21]

Sorry haven't read other posts.

But I've seen these clothes in some of my neighbors boutiques and was wondering, do you have to buy the electric display to own these clothes etc OR is it just a normal cataloge purchase??

And available on Android?

Thanks.

[Sunnydays612]

I'm really confused. I'm on Android and haven't received this update however I received the update dated 26th February so I wonder if someone can help me on this please?

Also I haven't received any goals for what seems an age. I'm left with 2 goals - street style and to expand to 15 x 18 and the second, excuse our dust and to expand to 16 x 19. I had a goal (can't remember the name of it now) to expand to 14x17 (1,000,000) which has now disappeared. I am currently on level 44 and at 859,000 money and it just taking ages to get to 1,000,000.

Can someone help with my dilemma please?

Many thanks
