We went to one bootsale but I was unsatisfied not being able to find anyting for myself /not even to mention black dolls/. Not to leave empty handed I purchased a healthy looking Superstar in genuine 80/90 pink coat - only to resale it...when i was going to pack her, both me and seller paused but i said it loud - 'we shouldn't separate these two after so many years'...so hey - I have two dolls now /instead of one which i don't ever really want nor like LOL;-)
some extras underneath
and a friend:
I've seen this dress somewhere...+ extras!
so bad so good
It started innocently with bending over a blanket and touching one of the toddler-preloved dolls... I love car boot etiquette and this charming English thing of being forced to ask ppl to give you money for your thrash LOL... so she have me auburn Moxie w/shoes and a singing lighting up yet nude Snow White.. what could i do...
Then quck stop to purchase Xena for £1 only to hold in hands a bionic woman once and re-sale...
the softest hair ever but oh dear...
Then I saw some red dolls hair already packed in a locked plastic box...wanted to check it out - it was Ariel but I was cheeky enough to dig a little...so there you go - unknown doll with nice hair /for resale/ and oh my god! Black Fashionista with missing palm and split leg LOL...they were 20 p each so what could i do LOL /Fashionista!!/... she said; 'I'm sorry all teh better ones are already gone' aaaaaaa
very realistic sculpt - can't wait to work with her!
and the other one...
useless bosy but interesting face /great colouring...
Oh what next... basically three boxes of Barbies etc...one of expensive and very well dressed ones, some uninteresting ones half-nude for £2 and others for 1 or something...I really wanted to buy something from this hell on earth full of worn out caucasian dolls... resisted teen Skipper but found an unusual articulated one...
confusing clicking mechanism, flat feet i adore after my AA gymnast and a very graceful hands...
...and contemporary take on Superstar sculpt
Then i'm really rushing, going back to the carpark...only to discover one more extra bank holiday raw...to my surprise I meet a Polish woman i met few weeks earlier at some craft fair...barely noticed as she had one single worn out classic looking doll sticking out from like piles of stuff... - really had to save this last one too...
ha!
and tout le monde!
what a day it was...identification post coming up next...

Xena ma minę, jakby xenna
ReplyDeletejednak nie zadziałała :)
ale trzeba przyznać - robi
wrażenie nieustraszonej -
nie zamknęłabym drzwi takiej
Wojowniczce - lubię nietypowe
postaci - niekoniecznie w odbiorze
potocznym odbierane jako ładne ;P
Poszla w swiat, ale ciekawe doswiadczenie - swietne wlosy i realistyczny malunek!
