For the second week in a row, we have received some amazing outfits from Drop Science. This week we received the Track Star collection from the brand, featuring six outfits for the girls and five for the boys. All the streetstyle items come in various colours, styles and designs, so there really is something for everyone to be found in the collection this week.
For many of us at this time of year, the temperatures are freezing and there is ice/snow on the ground. With that in mind, Lockwood have chosen the perfect time to give us the Ice Skating collection from Bionic. Both genders received five outfits in various colours and designs, and also a black and white pair of ice skates to complete the outfit. There are also some skating tights available for the girls. It's no surprise that we have seen many ice skating themed posts/edits this week as a result.
Out of the blue it seems, this week we also received a professional chefs outfit from SHFTR. Similar to those below, I'm sure we will be seeing lots of posts and edits making full use of the new item.
The Ikon release this Friday proved popular once again, with the guys getting the Butterfliez outfit and the girls the contrasting Venom outfit.
The Venom outfit gave us a gorgeous slinky snakeskin bodysuit completed with a faux fur green scarf, whilst the guys got an embroidered jacket with butterfly and floral motifs and completed with white jeans and crepe sole boots.
And just a little extra.... They may not exactly be clothing or fashion-related, but even so this week we also feature the new Valmont Convertible car collection from Dolly Bop. The edits were provided by Makayla Clifford.

V.O.A Collections
Unlike a lot of Avakin modelling groups/agencies, Vogues Of Avakin regularly bring us their own exciting themed collections, put together from items both old and new. The collections also gives us a lot of hints and tips to achieve that desired look.
This week we feature three brand new collections from them, including one featuring special guest LKWD Jessie. Check them out below!!!
Avakin Life Apartment Design
A big part of Avakin Life is owning your own apartment and customising it to suit your taste or perhaps for that special occasion/event. With so many apartments now available to buy or win, it's sometimes difficult to keep up with what's new and what items are inclusive to collect.
Luckily for us, Brandy Burry's brilliant Avakin Life Apartment Design Facebook/Instagram pages are a great source of information on all the latest apartment releases and provides some great ideas, hints, tips and examples on how to decorate each apartment to get us started. The page also boasts some beautiful photography.
This week we once again bring you Brandy's helpful tutorial videos, feature news on the winners of the Party Decor contest and we take a look at how LexiSerenity139 and Melarese decorated their Black Forest and Studio Loft Apartments.

We Need You!!!
We went this magazine to be for everyone to enjoy and take part in. It simply would not be possible without the huge amount of content posted each week by people who love Avakin Life as much as we do.
Therefore we want to ensure that literally everything and anything Avakin related anybody wants to see is included and shared with the rest of the community. To do this we need you!!!
So...... if you have a great idea for a feature you would like to see included or you have an event, group or family to promote, we would love to include it. If you want us to help promote your contests and competitions, we want to hear from you. If you want more exposure for your photo edits, videos and posters, we would love to help.
Mostly we value your feedback. We need you to help us make it better for you and let us know what you think.
To contact us for all the above and anything at all, just send us a message to the Avakin Addiction Magazine Facebook page and we will respond to everybody.
Thanks to.....
