Dance

In this entry - a tribute to 8 years old me... inspired by a DANCE themed insta-challenge for #monday4dolls....a tribute to all things Barbie & Ballete...

Enjoy!

A quick warm-up with flat-lay...

...and all of the tuttus...

here they are - my ballerinas arriving for their practice...

Vintage and comfy

Tadaaam!

She is charming, I'm glad I remembered I have her

...dynamic one...

...and I thought I can resist but no...

Lets have even more ballet pink and a blonde Barbie... ha!

Not my favourite era but her make-up is amazing!

Awwwww

strawberries and cream balm on my heart

Floral hawaii (My doll No.208)

 

The day has come. I got this doll very unexpectedly from charity shop. She has  this unique 70s simple charm...and very few hair... I can never decide if she is young or more mature, elegant or casual...

Luckily the Floral theme for #monday4dolls allowed me to incorporate both!

Here is my floral spring flatlay 

and some close-ups with one of my mini-paintings

Let's now incorporate it into diorama

Awww...

Really happy with all the details 

...and here she is in extra floral vintage negligée

She definitely has splendid legs for her age...

Ok, enough basking in this morning sun - let's go!

Look at her cool trendy leggings, super short shorts, a-shapped all pink jacket and ankle-boots!

She seems so happy - must have been several decades since anyone redressed her... 

Oh, it's a bit overwhelming - better sit down before the trip!

Oh my! The first time outdoors...maybe in forever, who knows!

All the favourite spots in Richmond Park...

Ah yes - legs and flowers!

Bluebells, daffodils and a birch tree!

Lovely, gentle smile...

...few seasonal close-ups...

Oh and a quick one with a last-minute forsythia

Billie Blue

The blue-haired Billie emerged again this year not only to assist her friend from the Rainbow High to embody the idea of BLUEness but also to embrace the July seaside trip to Kent (02.07.22).

BLUE, everything blue for #moday4dolls with @bella_belladolls

Hmm, how to use this disproportional new friend for art....

...the result...

It always gets a bit creepy and oneiric with me somewhat...

Let's give her some time she is such a commercial promo girl...

It really goes!

Let's now move on to see the not so deep but real blue...

a modest tourist wearing oversized denim piece

Lovely realistic white tights...

Some britishness

...and yes...few more shades of blue...

...Teal - don't care...

...Turquoise - maybe babe...

...yes, a quiet spot...
