Lucky for me a friend gifted me the whole outfit! I especially love the hat

I agree that it really doesn't make sense to buy such detailed accessories when nobody can even see them

Wait a second! When did the NC tell us that things would come out today at the Post Office?! I doubt that they ever told us that there would be new things at the Post Office coming out today...

Yes, I think they were pretty sneaky about letting us know about these new items. They did have the new clothes symbol on the calendar earlier this week but (to my knowledge) it was not there when they first put out the calendar, so they must have added it recently. The only reason I knew about it was Sweet Pea mentioned it in Tuesday's Never News.

I think the hat is adorable, and I also have an eye on the cute top - the skirt looks very sweet and simple too!

The top hat was available for Members last year during Silly Days, you would be able to find it in the Mermaid Grotto. Also, if you were lucky, there was a glitch after Silly Days when, if you flew to a friend in the Grotto, you would be able to receive the silly items again, thus giving you two of the same gifts.

I'm just thrilled that the sparrowmen didn't get left out again! A new tailoring outfit (why couldn't they just call it a hatter outfit?) and the Hat!! I've longed for that hat for so long.....

Yes I agree Buttercup

And I love the animation- the hats are very similar

The PPO is starting to get Wonderland-themed, don't you think??

Yes, that's true. The Icon first was 2 weeks later when they put out the calendar, then I read it in the calendar for yesterday.

So it's the same for sparrow man fashion: items are getting more and more expensive!
The top hat for the tux is 10 Diamonds and I could't afford it, the new Mad Hatter top hat I think is cool but it's 15 Diamonds! That's way too much for me to buy although I'd really liked to…

I was thinking that the new outfit reminds me of the Queen's Boutique dresses. And it is nearly as expensive (but we can at least buy it separately, dye it, and get one for a friend). It makes me wonder if they were planning on selling that in the Boutique at first, but changed their minds since we are not buying them fast enough there.

I agree, the new outfit is certainly in the Queen's Boutique style. (And it costs nearly as much!)

Night - I would be more than happy to buy you the olive Silly Hat!
Come find me in the Hollow! I have more than one account & I'm sure one of my fairies would love it too!

When are you usually on?
What server & meadow do you like?
We should meet up!

PS. Wasn 't the new outfit in the Post Office visible in the Queen's Boutique...... in the background, on one of the mannequins?
Or am I just crazy?

Well, yes, the new outfit might be able to be put in the Queen's Boutique.
The history of the Queen's Boutique dresses have all been very long except for the Golden Roses, and especially, the Morning Glory, but I think this one is a little too short for a "gown"- as I look at it, it reaches about to the thigh, which is extremely short.

However, the price comparisons are pretty similar, although I know this is "the price of one for two" thing. Whole thing costs 61 Diamonds. Yes, it's a little cheaper, but I've never seen anything at the Post Office this expensive.

Anyways, here are the total prices of all the PPO outfits currently:

Gift Set 1 (Unstoppable): 37 Diamonds
Gift Set 2 (Alluring Elegance): 61 Diamonds
Gift Set 3 (Curcuma): 31 Diamonds
Gift Set 4 (Wonderland): 44 Diamonds
Gift Set 3 (Hat- I thought Curcuma was gift set 3, this should be gift set 5, is it a glitch?): 15 Diamonds
Accessory Set 1 (sundials): Each 8 Diamonds, total (all the accessory set 1 items combined): 48 Diamonds
Accessory Set 2 (earrings): Each 7 Diamonds, total (all the accessory set 2 items combined): 42 Diamonds

And just for fun, I found out the total cost of all the items in the PPO (including repeated outfits [the ones that are just the different colors])
Unstoppable: 74 + Alluring Elegance: 122 + Curcuma: 62 Diamonds + Wonderland: 44 Diamonds + Hat: 15 Diamonds + Acc.Set 1: 48 Diamonds + Acc.Set 2: 42 Diamonds= (drumroll...) 407 Diamonds in Total! That's a LOT!

Phew! I'm not the greatest mathematician on Earth and I didn't use a calculator at all, so that took me a reallllllly loooooong time!!

Tiger

P.S. Grace, I don't see it... but I'm pretty sure you're correct

I don't know about if it was shown in the Boutique decor but I think the new "Alluring Elegance" outfits are actually inspired by this drawing showing fairies shopping with diamonds around January when they released diamonds from the December 20th NN.
Must be a lot of fairies asked for that hat so they made it. I wonder if they will release any other of the outfit pieces from that picture, I do like the purple dress they have here and shopkeeper's hat here and in the game. I also like that they seem very fairy/nature inspired rather than mainland-ish.




Hmm looks like 4-5 diamonds for 5 shopping bags... if only that were true.

Actually, unless I missed a rotation, each time they released dresses at the Queen's Boutique there has been 1 long and 1 short dress. I don't like the full length dresses on my fairies, so I have been paying more attention to the shorter ones. I agree about the style being more QB than most of the PO options, but I see no reason to charge THAT much for the outfit. It seems each time they release something new, they raise the price just enough to make more without a complete revolt against the diamonds. I cancelled my membership, and I feel that there is little difference-I still like the diamond things and can't have them all unless I spend a ridiculous amount on real money I wish we could send postcards with ingredients at the very least.
