Halloween DLC Items

Items from the Japanese Halloween DLC are now available in Style Boutique 2 and Style Savvy 3. In Girls Mode 3 (the Japanese version), the items were available as a DLC download during the Halloween season. In Style Boutique and Style Savvy, the items have been incorporated into the game and do not need to be downloaded via the DLC option.

The pictures below showcase the items from the Japanese DLC.

The Halloween items are only available during the month of October. The Spooky Cherry Dress and Pumpkin Ribbon are available from April Bonbon. The Spooky Rock Hooded Top and Spooky Rock Pannier Skirt are available from Stage Dive. The items are not available each day, so check each day to see if the items are available at the brand store.

The Spooky Ruins Wallpaper and Spooky Ruins Paving need to be unlocked by having your fortune told by Magda at locations that can be visited via the train station.

Character Symbols

In Style Boutique/Style Savvy, different symbols will appear above NPC characters heads in various locations around the game. These symbols identify the interaction you can have with the character. The symbols that will appear are pictured below with an explanation of what each symbol means.

Yellow Stars 
This symbol either means a main NPC character (such as Callie or the Stylettos) requests an outfit, hair cut or make over at the various shops or when displayed at a location such as the Exhibition Hall or train station locations, it means you have a scheduled event to complete there.

Yellow Flower
Appears above NPC characters around the city and the character will tell you they wish to visit you at the Beautician, Hair Salon or your Boutique.

Rainbow Exclamation Mark
Hint of a colour location. If you have unlocked all the colours, the NPC will talk about how colourful the city has become.

Musical Note
This symbol is used for a number of meanings. You cannot directly identify which one the character will do, but it is always good to click on these characters as sometimes it will unlock something. The musical note symbol means any of the following:


 

• The character has a make-up set item to give to you. 
• The character has miniatures to gift to you. 
• A boutique customer is requesting an outfit of a certain style. After serving this customer, another customer may appear straight after asking for the same style outfit. The customer will invite you to hang out with them at a location afterwards, quite often it is the Rose Garden.
• When displayed at a location, it means there is a character waiting for you to visit them.
• A main NPC character wishes to talk you such as Leonora.
• A design pattern is available to unlock by triggering the event.

Tips For Making Money

There's a number of ways to earn money in Style Boutique, but some ways are better than others. Completing jobs such as providing customers with hairstyles, make-overs or new outfits will generate income. However, these will only earn you a certain amount of cash and can take up a large chunk of your time.

Here are some tips & tricks on how to earn money in Style Boutique:

• Choose the unique theme for a fashion show and wear a Chic outfit. Customers will visit your boutique wanting to purchase an expensive chic outfit. Head to the Exhibition Hall and stock up on items from Enid Chen and ARIANNA brands. Customers will have a budget of up to $17,000 sometimes when requesting a Chic outfit.
• When selling Chic outfits, make sure to purchase the most expensive items from Enid Chen and ARIANNA. The ideal items to purchase are the Crystal Collar Necklace ($2280), Faux Fur Robe ($2000), Smart Satchel ($1554) and Wedding Earrings ($1400). These items are an easy sell as you can combine them into an outfit.
• Rent out all your Caprice Chalet rooms. Some room designs can get $1000 in rent and you can rent 9 rooms a day. That's an easy $9000! Make sure to collect your rent each day and invite new characters to rent out your room as soon as it empties out. For a guide on how to rent out rooms and the price of rent for each type, please refer to this guide.
• Utilise your store mannequin. Always have an outfit on it and serve customers who wish to purchase it. Make sure the price of the outfit is at least $500 and change the outfit regularly as customers will not purchase one that has been on the mannequin for a few days.
• Set up make-up sets for display and purchase at the Beautician. This opens another avenue for revenue at the Beautician besides giving make-overs. Each set sells for $150 and male customers at the Beautician will always purchase one.
• Make sure you always have accessories in stock for each style at your boutique to sell to customers. For example, you have chosen a $200 dress for a customer and if you add the $100 bag to the outfit, you've easily brought the total cost up to $300 with one item.
• Theme your boutique around medium or high priced style such as Baby-Doll or Chic. Customers will visit your boutique with higher budgets and you can sell more expensive items more often.
• Complete design requests at the Designer Lounge. It costs nothing to do and you will receive a payment from the brand representative for helping them out.
• Don't stock up on Purple Moon items. These items are pricey ($999 each) and are not the easiest thing to sell.
• The best trick to make money off Purple Moon items is to combine one item into an outfit on the mannequin. For example, place a Purple Moon t-shirt that matches the lively style on a mannequin wearing a lively outfit.

Caprice Chalet - Room Designs

Style Boutique 2 (Style Savvy 3) has a new feature that allows you to decorate dollshouse rooms and display them in an area called the Caprice Chalet. There is a wide range of miniatures to collect in the game that can be used to decorate rooms. You can design a wide range of rooms at the Caprice Chalet.

Please refer to the following guides for more information on the Caprice Chalet:

Here are some examples of rooms I have designed for the Caprice Chalet. This guide will be updated with more designs in the future.

Boutique - Remodelling & Decorating

Style Boutique allows you to customise the look and style of your Boutique. There are different styles available to fit the various different images in the game. The type of look and style you decorate your Boutique with will influence the type of customers that visit. For example, if you give your Boutique a bold look, customers will visit who like that style.

To redecorate your Boutique, simply click the Manage icon in the top left hand corner of the bottom 3DS screen when you are in your Boutique. The following menu will appear with these options: Music, Mannequin & Display, Remodel & Stock Management. For information on stock management, please refer to the Purchasing & Clearing Stock guide. For information on utilising mannequins, please refer to the Mannequin guide.

Music
You can set certain music to play in your Boutique and music tracks are available to match each image/style in the game. To select a music track, simply scroll through the list and you can preview each song. Select the track you would like to use and click Ok. I personally like using the Girly music track.

Mannequin & Display
At the front of your Boutique, there is a space you can display a mannequin with an outfit that customers can purchase. Please visit the Mannequin guide for a detailed guide on how to decorate and sell outfits on mannequins. You can also decorate the space the mannequin is placed in and place miniatures in the space to give it certain look.

There are a number of design options available for the space. Select the Walls/Floor option to alter the design to any of the following:

• Red Curtains

There is an option to place miniatures in the space and up to two miniatures can be used at a time. Select the Display icon to bring up a menu that displays all the miniatures you have available to use. You are able to place miniatures from the following categories: clothes, lighting and clocks, electronics, miscellaneous, plants and animals, food, shop resources and furniture (selected items).
