My dolls no 153 & 154

Today a note on my 11.06.2017 mini extravaganza - thanks to facebook group I has found out that Tesco UK has a 2for1 offer on Fashionista dolls (9.45 pounds).
I have terrorised my family and have been lucky enough to fin of half empty shelves what I wanted:

Fashionista 56 Petite 'Style so Sweet'
Fashionista 57 Curvy 'Zig Zag'

They both have made some noise in on-line community. Petite is one of the fines example of 2001 Mbili/Grace face-sculpt's usage... Very natural face make-up, beloved here red lips and contemporary simple hairdo.

If you go on Flick you can see people rebodying her and doing wonderful things with this doll!

The curvy one is a completely new 2016 mold - famous for her corn rows/ side cut and slightly unfortunate lips design. Sculpt itself is very realistic again and suits fuller figure perfectly:-)

People again have found some great ways to sort this doll out too. Removing the lipstick is an absolute must. Shading the undercut and softening the contrast with the egg-yolk yellow blonde...

It isn't very good idea to do any de-boxing sort of thing as they have been all over the internetz already... Each fashionista comes now with a dress, accessory (bracelet, bag or necklace) and shoes.

I don't think I have time to do anything really creative this time but can always play around with comparisons and friends...




...deboxing tho....I like new easy to open boxes and easy to cut strongs (miss the wire and tape tho..)
There've been few issues tho....my dolls legs from knees down are semi mat...hair stiff and messed up by packaging... Ice-cream princess' head shot three times but missing the cardboard...






warm welcome with lots of Grace
free at last!
befriended
beauties!
She is a great addition indeed:-)

Let's free our curvy girl now!
freedom!

just look at them bellies!

My doll No 153

Today I wanted to introduce one lovely doll!
You know whats my favorite category already
 - tanned / mixed race
- dark hair
- brown eyes
- red lipstick...

  knock knock, how's there
 the best lips in the business
 ...hair not so much:-(

This one holds proudly on her neck anchor a very desirable head-mold.
I still haven't got chance to purchase gorgeous collectible edition of this sculpt, but here she is

The Original Ana Suarez, Generation Girl doll!


Another bad description so i snatched her cheap on 22.06.17 (dear diary). She came in this very summery dress which i learnt to like with time (and it's genuine Mattel;-)





I introduce this fab line before in my entries on Nichelle, Tori and Chelsea (still no Mari :-( ).

Ana Suarez was born in Mexico City, Mexico, and now lives in an apartment in the Washington Heights area (Spanish Harlem) of New York. If you want to read more stereotypical b***t please go to Generation Girl wiki:-)

Her first edition doll is made to be early 2000 (ok 1998) most techno/meta hip-hop sporty. I hate it and only want to embrace her Mexican side;-) Yet I really how simple her look is...




here she is as new...I wish mine's hair were so sleek...

She has a lovely green-eyed edition with this amazing and full of accessories room/dorm playset!




don't even get me started on 2000 Mattel

Here is my girl with refreshed hair, take one - very much no perfect!
but very photogenic...

Here she is just for fun with my other dolls with this face. One of my fav things to do! Look at the these varieties and what a difference colour combination can do...


.... while I am still working on restyling mine - please have a look at 'The Other' doll from Generation Girl line using this mold - Lara.
(She is lovely...so one day....)

1998, 1st edition - artsy pants she is...

Dance Party edition - so bohemian <3

2000, My Room

p.s. update from the future - Ana and her love for vintage...

...photography (and reunion with an old old friend;-)

Desire in Legoland

Almost straight after being picked up at carboot sale my perfect Desiree with the perfect shiny fringe has been taken for a trip of her life - to Legoland in Denmark.

We have spent first afternoon on a farm next to Billund - the location of the original Lego factory and a village where the Christiansens still live.


 ..there was this amazing big huge bouncy trampoline :-))
She was so happy she did some posing...




The next day we moved to the fancy Lego Hotel...
 oh everything was from Lego there (well not the faaaab food tho)

...in the park at last...
 Ninjago was our fav!

oh we loved them all - pirates, knights...


 ...shops. restaurants, spooky house...
 make-your-own figurine section

...and miniature world at last...




 oh I really would love to comeback one day!!!

dreamy about it already!
