Apparel Shop Opens

The Bug-Off was held today, and my villagers were all prepared with their cute bug-catching hats. 😂

I participated in the event twice, scoring 11 points on my first attempt, and 12 points on my second run.

Flick: Well done. You earned 12 points!

I redeemed 20 of my 23 points for a bug cage and a spider web.

Later, I went out to Lottie’s Island to work on the final facility. Lottie told me I’d be designing an apparel shop; she had me start off by customizing the shop exterior.

The exterior design of the apparel shop in Happy Home Paradise.

Inside, Lottie told me I can use up to six special mannequins, which will have different items for sale each day (once the shop opens up). I didn’t want to make the shop too similar to GracieGrace, which I’ve already designed for Label(le). So I made the inside of the shop red, with a red art-deco wall and simple red flooring.

I added a cash register, a glass showcase, some counters, a couple of (regular) mannequins, a changing room, and some umbrellas. I decided to hire Olivia as the shop manager, and I gave a name to the shop: Forest Fit.

My new apparel shop.
Is Winnie thinking about shoplifting?
Or is she just horsing around?

With all the facilities done, it was finally time for the special event that has been in the works. Since the DLC has been out for nearly eight months, I’m sure most of you already know what the event is all about. But for those of you who don’t, you may want to stop reading this entry now if you want the special event to be a surprise.


SPOILER ALERT

Turn back now to avoid spoiling the Happy Home Paradise special event upon completion of 30 vacation homes and all facilities!


Okay, you’re still here. 😛 We went out to the north beach, where DJ K.K. came floating by on a barge. He started playing music, and we all began to dance. It’s like an outdoor version of Club LOL!

DJ K.K. hosts a music festival on Lottie's Island.

It continued to show us all dancing as it showed screenshots of each vacation home and facility I’ve designed. It’s like watching the credits roll, but without the credits. Pretty cool!

Dancing to screenshots of my clients' vacation homes.

When we headed back to the office, Lottie paid me 25,000 Poki for my work. Wardell said he left some products for the music festival at the apparel shop. I then learned some new dancing reactions!

I learned a few dance Reactions! I can't wait to bust out these moves!

After checking out the shop and buying a couple items, I wrapped up my game for the night. It’s nice to finally “beat” the DLC, even though there are still vacation homes left to design. I may do some more of them from time to time, but don’t expect that to happen very often. 😛

See you all next time!
