Superdoll's 2017 Valentine Doll: Erosia DD_120

Just released, Superdoll's adorable Valentine, Erosia.
Here is the complete text from the offering along with all the misspelled words intact.

EROSIA DD_120

In celebration of Valentine and the Birth of Venus.

Erosia is a little bit nymph, extremely cute and rather coy!

Lets start at the top. HUGE blue satin bows hold her long double bunches of blended dark blond waist lenth hair, which bear centre part and blunt fringe. Her bright blue eyes are shaded in pink and blue! Brows of ginger berry above her eyes kohled in black, and lids of icy sky. Voluptuous lips of candy pink frosting! Her mega long black lashes give her that cupid charm.

She wears a pink silk organza bra top trimmed in ivory lace that bears roleaux detail underbust and multi strap roleux, creating an aluring peek a boo decoulte. Her waist is encased in a bandeau of ivory roleux, forming a 4 row wide cumbaband.

Her cheeky blue skirt is of multi layers of blue, aurora borealis stones on netting trimmed in ivory lace and a divinely pleasted plasticised georgette and a final layer of diamond netting. A true confection!

Further she has armlets in ivory stretch netting, ivory striped weave hose, pink tulle panties and her irresistable pale candy multi strap platform boots.

Her accessorie d'Jour is a gorgeous chromed bow with pink corded hand grip bearing diamante accent. Her arrow case of silver and halogram 'leather' with huge satin bow, heart braided multi cord chest strap, a pair of pink tulle gloves and of course half a dozen cute heart shaped arrows..... aiming straight for her Valentine. Let it be YOU!

She is a lovely doll. I like her blended blonde wig and her fabulous shoes; however, I do think it's time for a new sculpt.

The extremely favorable pound to dollar exchange rate brings the US price of the doll to $323.40. Shipping adds another $55-$60.

Valentine's Day

One of the largest money-making days for the greeting card, chocolate, cut flowers and jewelry industry is upon us.

Saint Valentine's Day, often simply Valentine's Day,^[1][2][3] is a holiday observed on February 14 honoring one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentinus. It was first established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD, and was later deleted from the General Roman Calendar of saints in 1969 by Pope Paul VI. It is celebrated in countries around the world, mostly in the West, although it remains a working day in all of them.
The day first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. By the 15th century, it had evolved into an occasion in which lovers expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as "valentines").^[1][3]
Modern Valentine's Day symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards.^[4]

The above is from Wikipedia. The entire page is worth reading as it talks about customs in different parts of the world.

So today as I browse the internet and see wonderful photos of dolls in Valentine's Day settings, I will collect some of them here.

I begin with a photo by Michelle in Mi seen on the Studio Commissary:
