Another month has come and gone and so has another Style Boutique poll! The question for October was 'What Purple
Moon costume will you be dressing up in for Halloween?' and there was 144 votes this month.
So the results are in for which costume you want to wear for Halloween and here are the results:
1st = Ninja
2nd = Halloween Top/Skirt
3rd = Ballerina
4th = Cat
5th = Fairy
6th = Regal & Tuxedo Bunny
7th = Cosmic Dress
8th = Genie, Dress Of Hearts, Pirate, Red Riding Hood, School Uniform & Waitress.
9th = Clown, Maid & Mii
10th = Christmas Outfit & Train Conductor
11th = Carousel, Flight Attendant & Frog
12th = Cheerleader
This poll had a lot of answer to choose from and I was actually surprised at the end result. The Ninja costume had a whopping 27% of the votes! It seems everyone is really excited to dress up as a ninja this year. The simple Halloween Top/Skirt came in second with 13% of the votes and the ballerina was third with 8% of the votes. The rest of the outfits made up the remaining percentages and I was surprised cheerleader was in last place, I thought that would be a popular outfit.
Thought we would do another character poll and this time it will be about the Five Sisters. Readers of the blog love the Five Sisters and I thought it would be fun to find out who is the most popular sister among the blog's readers. So the question is 'Who is your favourite sister of the Five Sisters?' To vote, simply
scroll down the side bar and the poll
is
under the game box images. If you cannot view the poll, please visit the
blog using the web version. The blog is not available in mobile view on
some devices. If you are on a mobile, select 'View web version' at the
bottom of the page.
At
the Caprice Chalet, you can create different themed rooms and rent them
to characters in the game. Only certain themed rooms can be rented out
to characters and must have specific items placed in them to fit into a
rental category. This post will look at the office themed rooms and
renting them to characters.
Office themed rooms are set up and decorated like a room you would study or work in. These types of rooms can be difficult to design as you need to place the right combination of items and it can take some experimentation to find what works best. Office themed rooms require a desk and chair to be placed in the room. Ideal small miniatures to use include items such business files, messy scrap paper and a radio. If you have downloaded the Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer DLC, there is a photocopier miniature available that would be perfect for an office space.
Characters
will appear at your boutique with a small house symbol above their
head. Select this character and they will tell you how they noticed a
room at the Caprice Chalet that had a certain theme. With office themed rooms, the character will talk about how they could get a lot of work and studying done in the office room at the Caprice Chalet.
The
character will request to rent the room out and you can either select
yes or no. The rental periods for rooms is 24 hours and renting out
rooms is a good method for earning money without effort in the game.
Characters
will stay in the Caprice Chalet room for about 24 hours. When you visit
the Caprice Chalet, rooms that are rented out will have a small person
icon displayed on them. If you select this room during the rental
period, the character will tell you how they are going or how business
is doing. Visit the room after the 24 hour period and the character is
ready to leave the room. They will thank you for allowing them to rent
the room and tell you how they went. The character will then pay you the
rental fee for using the room. The rental fee for office themed rooms is
$800.
For more information on decorating rooms and the Caprice Chalet, please refer to Caprice Chalet Master Guide for links to all the Caprice Chalet and Miniatures guides.

In
Style Boutique 2, a story line appears that Lenore and Sally having a conversation about Ricky at the Restaurant. This story line
appears at no specific time within the game and appears more than once.
The story line usually appears after you have completed the Five Sisters story line.
Visit Station Square and the Restaurant icon may have a star symbol hovering above it. The symbol either means there is a NPC waiting for you to visit after receiving an outfit from the boutique or it may be this story line. Head to the Restaurant and you will be greeted with Lenore and Sally having a conversation. Lenore and Sally are Leonora and Callie in disguise. Lenore will talk about Sally working hard and bring up Ricky who Sally secretly has a crush on. Later on in the conversation, they will begin talking to you and Sally will go on how she usually does that she must be referred to as Sally when she is wearing the afro.
There is no photo opportunity with this story line. It is only a conversation sequence that you have no interaction with.
