Hawaii 75 (No. 212)

 Today a very lucky find, so called 'Barbie in the wild' from my local charity shop...

I couldn't believe my eyes - dark -eyed and dark-haired Steffi faced Hawaii Barbie! Thr only thing that would surprise e more would be the that vintage Italian beauty...

She is wearing a summer 70's peasant dress. Her hair is shoulder length and rather poor...






Real floral cotton and very tired loop...


Her body markings say 1956 Korea!! How unusual!


Her hands are at two different angles....and hel legs are proper old-school high-heel arch!



...and head says 1965 Korea...


...what a mysterious beauty....

Here is a sneaky peek of the new chapter in life she will have at mine....



HA!

***

Now to IDing....
Mattel has the long time fascination with their local tropics - Hawaii.
Definitely one of the favourite Barbie's destinations....


...at least from 1964...


Then come these beauties 1975 and...1982...so confusing...






Ok, so 1982 one has different hair and straight hands (due to lack of ukulele as well)


Then Superstar happen....



Very interested makeup...I must hunt for her actively...


Late 80's bring us Island Fun with gorgeous Kira..


Followed with beautiful limited edition, collectable 1995 Polynesian beauty....


Next in 2005 comes Barbie Pink Label Dolls of the World Princess Of The Pacific Island Doll  with Goddess face-sculpt



Last but not least highly desirable, hazel-eyed Lea - Hawaii Passport Barbie line from DOTW, 2011



...hmmmm, I think I got it right...

Free to a good home

 In todays post  wonders that i have picked up from giveaway (not even a yard sale) literally 3 minutes from my flat. Mirrors, dvds - yes, that happened before but doll stuff! how exciting! 

I still often think about it - I probably missed out on lots of stuff as I had to dig really deep into ikea bags and it was only on  my way from work....


Oh lala!
...I worked really fast and effectively LOL


So we have this (I suspect MyScene) dress that my daughter was very excited about...and 

Great Shape Skipper 1983 that I got rid of once before;-)



Then we have unbranded I think - morning gown and cute stripy beach dress...and also this muscular ActionMan who is loosing his uniform and fancy belts in the name of fashion!


Then I picked up this loose head and very vintage looking dresses....
Skipper is the Malibu one - quite interesting with her dark brows and bangs...


...one more super Barnei pink for my child and that Ladybird fluff too....


This although look very vintage in Bratz the community said.....


Here they are - such a nice faces....wonder how ill find a tanned body....


This one-sleeved dress is amazing. but remains unidentified....



The blue lacy lounge wear is vintage Pedegree


Vintage 1977 SINDY "MISTY BLUE" #44306 
1978 "LET'S GET OUR BEAUTY SLEEP" #1103




Fabulour wedding/sleeping gown LOL too


and yes, long missing Crystal Barbie accessory (which really makes me think of things I have missed)
