STYLE SHOWDOWN SPECIAL

Style Showdown
By Maggskaggs

Neopets parade from all over town
To display their new clothes in the Style Showdown,
To prove that their outfits are the best of the best,
And their originality stands out from the rest.

Guildeford the Tonu would like to inquire,
"What were you thinking to wear THAT attire?"
His sharp wit and his impeccable taste
Have laid many shabbier outfits to waste.

His advice may strip your pockets quite bare,
Fashion is for those with Neopoints to spare.
His taste may be costly, but this Tonu's advice,
For style indeed must come with a price.

Which pet has it all -- the complete package deal?
Whose apparel has the greatest appeal?
That's up to Neopian citizens to decide.
Whose look will set all others aside?

So, fashionable Neopets, come to the runway,
Put together your costume and enter today!
It's time for the flashy, the extravagant, the wild,
So come one, come all, and show off your style!

Lowdown on the Showdown
By Saiphami

"Extra! Extra!"
Was heard around town.
Everyone get ready
For Neopia's Style Showdown!
Do you really have the chops,
To carry the winner's crown?
Or will you be a runner-up,
A fool in a golden gown?

What's the theme this week --
Masked in Mystery?
Rummaging through the closet
For a look to go down in history!
So what do you think:
Is this colour made for me?
And with this mask
I'll be sworn to secrecy.

Next theme is up --
Hmmm, Sugar and Spice?
I've got just the look,
I don't need your advice!
My Gingerbread Wings
Are sure to entice,
Paired with my Spyder Web Dress
I'll look doubly nice!

Last theme to conquer --
One inspired by space,
I'm sure to win
With starlight and grace.
Even Sloth would be jealous
Of my twinkling face!
Soon they'll call my name --
I got first place!

All in all,
This was great fun,
Although I'm sad to see
That everything's done.
But at least I can tell
Each and everyone,
That I was in the Showdown --
And hey, I won!

Dress Up!
By Caily_

There lives a dashing Tonu fair,
With impeccable taste,
He hosts the Style Showdown here,
And has Neocash to waste.

His eyes are of dark molten gold,
His mane is like that too,
He's extraordinary to behold,
His clothes are all brand-new.

"Pleasure to make your acquaintance,"
He'll say, smiling as he does.
You smile back with reverence,
And then go on your way.

Only those with amazing gowns
Should ever venture here,
It is called the Style Showdown,
It happens once a year.

There are many categories
From which to pick and choose,
Like Spaced or Masked in Mystery,
It is all up to you.

The Masquerade
By Squin

I went once to a masquerade ball,
Wandered amongst those in disguise,
Dazzled and glittered did they all,
Identity betrayed by their eyes.

Now all Neopia seems a masquerade,
Masked and cloaked we are,
The streets are all a grand parade,
Of pets from near and far.

Bedecked in costumes for fun,
Their true selves hid away,
Perhaps Sloth lurks beneath one?
Is danger hidden under the array?

However, one thing I know to be true:
Fondly shall we look back at history,
After this event is through,
At when we were 'Masked in Mystery'!

Style Show... UP!
By _Razcalz_

So debonair, so dusky, and so...
masked -- in riddle, in
contemplation, in... mystery.
A style, an essence, or perhaps:
a ticket to recognition in
one certain Showdown, and
this one you win
won't be two-way.

So honeyed, so precious, so...
Sugar & Spice -- now will you think
of nutmeg, cloves
aromatic, vanilla twilight?
All things sweet, yet
one may find character
and tanginess
and more beneath.

Spaced like Gorix,
spaced like a faerie we love,
spaced like... space.
Don a helmet, don a
suit, but don't overdo -- lest
you find yourself so
convincing you're whisked
off to starry unknown
by some who think they're
bringing you home.

So show up, not show down --
show up and see, or perhaps
be, be the facade,
the delight, the ranger...
the you you've only seen
in unfinished dreams.

Masked in Mystery
By Amethyst_81

She lingers in the shadows
At the gala masquerade,
Dancing through the fallen night,
Her presence unbetrayed.
She glides across the courtyard
As do waves drift through the sea,
Identity eluded,
She is masked in mystery.

Exquisite beauty captivates,
Of origins unknown,
Bright emerald eyes entangle you,
Soft smile doth condone.
Her carefree laughter fills the air,
You're lost within a trance,
With nothing you desire more
Than joining in her dance.

With every move, her silken gown
Slight figure doth embrace,
As heedlessly, she steals your heart,
Then leaves without a trace.
Alas, you wonder, was she real,
This stunning midnight muse,
Or merely conjured up in an
Enchanted faerie ruse?

Style Showdown
By Felicity437

You can look like a queen or like a clown,
Throw on some trousers in shades of dark brown,
Or grab your fedora and dark princess gown:
Just enter this year's awesome Style Showdown.

There're votes to be made and prizes to earn,
And passion as bright as the Wings of Flame burn.
You think you've got style? Well, now it's your turn!
If you dress up all right, you shall not be spurned.

A Tonu shows where you can enter and vote,
But the winning is what we all care about most.
In order to do so, you need to promote
Your lovely ensemble -- from socks to the coat.

Entering alone can have benefits --
You get some cool items if you just commit.
Remove that old sweater (the one made of knit)
Before you decide to finally submit.

When it comes to a showdown based solely on style,
You need to excel and go the extra mile.
With an intricate outfit and bright, pretty smile,
The entire experience can be worth your while!

The Style Showdown Situation
By Anjie

The word was whispered, going 'round,
A grand event was here,
One all did remember well
From fun and games last year.
A Style Showdown to be held!
With costumes and three themes.
Prizes for those who did well,
Beyond their biggest dreams!

Last year had been a merry time,
(For those who were not green!)
For envy had been in the air
And things had gotten mean.
"That dress is ugly!" Lupe had yelled,
"My owner has more taste!"
"It isn't fair!" a Meerca sobbed,
"I dressed up, what a waste!"

And yet the finalists had shone,
With grand and flawless flair.
Dresses, suits, accessories,
And groomed, such perfect hair.
Would this year be great again?
Would jealous folk stomp feet?
Would the theme set challenge large,
That my pets could not meet?

It didn't matter, I was hooked,
I rushed to closet fast.
My Draik looked worried, frowning deep,
As clothes went flying past.
We picked an outfit, hurried down,
And entered with a grin.
Will we be there on the day?
We'll see, let's just begin!
