Living the Dream

For many pre-teens and teens, they dream about what it would be like to be a famous celebrity wearing all the beautiful fashions and living in a trendy location. Here's their chance to live out that dream as they begin the game in Paris, the city of style and high fashion. There are 23 different locations in Paris that they will get to explore and in this game, being a shopaholic is a good thing. There is no shortage of items to browse through as they move from shop to shop, all of course, being the most chic shops in the city. There are more than 1,000 items to shop for throughout the city and you can also choose different looks for your eyes, skin, hair, and more.

Fashion Icon is free to download and play but like many in this type of genre you will find many of the items require in-app purchases. These purchases can get pretty pricey as they start at $1.99 and go up to $99.99. This doesn't seem to hurt the app as far as customer ratings go however as it gets four out of five stars from users.
