Bella

Today quite a fancy doll.
I have purchased her only to satisfy my curiosity, experience some proper Mackie - with cold blooded resolution to re-sell her! (yes, yet another under priced badly photographed doll).

 Lovely tidy, minimal parcel is hiding doll with an ivory Barbie Colectibles stand

...and original shoes!

 Tadaaam...yellow shoes matching quite spectacular golden-yellow gown undoubtedly belonging to Bella from Beauty and the Beast - here by Mattel 1999 Collectibles and Mackie face mold:-)

 She has extra long and very curly hair...
with four fancy locks in front!

 she has great natural coral lips, green-brown eyes and yellow-peachy make-up. Very pretty!

Her dress is quite elaborated and well made
 tons of glitter and some nice jacquard and tulle and more lace...
 detail...
she is also wearing panties...
 lovely 'Barbie Collectibles' label
dress is made-up from separates with snaps, how nice!

few more pictures before I let her go...



 ...here she is locked up in her original box

 

...overall very interesting experience... but I prefer dolls I am not afraid to touch, comb and undress...

Charity goodies 3

In early May I had pleasure to be alone for one week and spent weekend in London... after coming back i dedicated a greater part of a day to cycle around charity shops that I know...

I wasn't terribly lucky but in the end came back with two albums on floristry and two nicely articulated Disney dolls...

I was cold-blooded doing that - one was very pale (and had chesnut ginger hair) - the other one was AA - two non-blondes and potential body donors... oooorr a repaint maybe...

they came in such a awful dresses...
but with lovely smiles and, oh well - Disney eyes...
 nicely made toes
 articulated arms 
both plastic and rubber is lower quality than Mattel and shades are not well matched

torso is more less like bellybutton one, maybe slightly slender...
 and panties matching dress colour are very cute and help identification for such a ignorant as me...


Yellow dress and auburn hair are BELLA's obviously (Beauty and the beast) - even I know that...
there is new doll coming out every ear - different make up, version of a dress... ppl collect them...



whatever...mine seems to be from 2009 and doesn't sing thanks god;-)
I will have hard times doing things to her face/head - she is so innocent...
a lot of 'prerafaelite' charm
and dry split ends;-)

 cut if you have to....



ta daaam - feeling lighter:-) 
The Black doll in mint green panties turned out to be TIANA:

really happy to have natural hair first time in her life:-)

versions versions...
 big no no  - so happy afro was possible:-)

 TBC

by the time I am writing it (August) they came extremely useful as donors...
