Today just a little funny one from two years ago - lil dolly catch-up in Spring Flowers Colour palette...
Flatley as usual...plus a bit of matching me...
...and here they are - collection of contemporary fashionistas besties...
I love the latest smiley one:-)
Nothing says spring more than chocolate eggs (at least in England)
Oh, hey!
How about some close-ups?
Haha, distracted with chitchat!
Lovellies. So happy with the available selection of different sculpts!
P.S. Please meet my first purchase after charity shops reopened from yet another lockdown - yet another top-heavy LalaLoopsy but as a charming Geisha with blue hair - what's not to love!?
Today yet another 'ethnic' doll that I stumbled upon and just had to save.
The AA version/editions of any doll in any wave is the one I am always after. The Sleeping Beauty is quite a curiosity indeed. Coming from Eurocentric narrative, remade to satisfy diverse market needs.
This particular not only bares a graceful Macke face sculpt but also sport6s one of a kind old-school sleepy-eye situation!
Here is a very blurry commercial from 2000 w Caucasian dolls - if you can bear the singing...
Here they are as boxed dolls:
..and a close-up on my future girl...
Here is my pr girl IRL - nude, hair seriously chopped and the 'switch' at the back operating her eyelids jammed and unreliable.
I love her surprised, Bambi-like expression... other than that...well was tempted to snatch her caramel body but her head is made of hard plastic, only moves around left and right so definitely not a good candidate for a body donor
Let's see then...
It's been way over an year (of lockdowns, UK edition) since I got her so took me a while to dig her out of the bottom of one of my sub-category doll collecting concealed box LOL
Anyway - here she is enjoying her spa time with other thirsty hair gals...taking a nap!?
...Spa wasn't super successful and she is extremely unposable doll but I still thought - quite unique due to her 'sleepy eyes' so I gave her a while session with her other fairy-tale cousin Mackie.
Here they are dressed down as usual enjoying a cosy autumnal interior....
Today doll which arrived after semi-complicated logistic delay as it was shipped to someone who I knew will be visiting. I had no time since then to revisit her but am no less chuffed with her and neverending diversity of Fashionista dolls.
My new-old girl No 170 is: Barbie Fashionistas Doll 2015 Fancy Flowers
Brand new mold, minimal makeup, two-ones curly hair, unusually dark skin... She comes from early waves and has this funny fashion-oriented, super-model, post-ModelMuse body... in her constant countra-post (with one leg shorter in result), hands on hips, absolute stiffness in hips... sh eposes well but is far from versatile...
Originally she looked like that (thanks internet) - dress is very cool...
I have the whole phoyoshoot comming up with the oldschool one and only AA Barbie queen - my new OOAK Christie... In good tradition of dressing- and playing-down here is colour palette and lookbook sneaky peak...
so much fun - I should do this more often and in less of a hurry LOL (between work-school-sleep)
