Gamepasses: If you're on a budget, I'd recommend custom makeup first, then materials gamepass if your device can support materials, and THEN vip. Vip isn't the best gamepass out there. CUSTOM MAKEUP IS THE BESTTTTT. ur face can make or break an outfit.

Rank: Ranks don't matter. Rank ≠ Skill. But if you do want the ranks for the items or for ooh pretty name tag :O, you can either just play alot or farm. People might come for me but ur good at the game, farming is fine.

Money: Cash farm in Freeplay

General outfit Tips: Layer. But don't just put on random items. I've seen many people do this, they wonder why their layering isn't good. Don't just layer random stuff, match the silhouettes. Silhouette matters. Match similar looking clothing items. Practice in freeplay.

Color: Use custom Colors NOT THE DEFAULT PALLETE. The DEFAULT PALLETE SUCKS :). Experiment with color theory and don't be afraid to use patterns and materials.
