The Epitome of Barbie-ness

I ordered this doll back in August and she is finally here. The Blonds Blond Diamond Barbie Doll is the epitome of Barbie-ness. The hair, the smile, the rhinestones, the body and the bling. It almost hurts to look at her. :P

I'm really surprised that I'm thinking about keeping her. The entire box came well tissued. It had a solid cover which opened to reveal a plastic lid, perfect for displaying the doll in the box.
She has nice applied lashes and her hair looks beautiful - that's a surprise. Why can't they get Silkstone doll hair to look like that?

If you are considering buying - do it now. She is a knockout. Just change the body to an articulated one and she's good to go.

Comical and Colorful Dr. Seuss

I was able to get two of the three Tonner Dr. Seuss fashions. They're colorful and outrageous. If you stare at them for too long, your eyes will hurt. :-)

Three BJDs Get Camera Time

In between decorating for the holidays and ordering stuff on-line I managed to get some picture taking done...finally!

First up is Jamieshow Alejandro. I need a really cool wig for him but for now, he's bald and still looks pretty good. He is my only male BJD and probably will always be the only one. His jacket and jeans are Jamieshow items as are the shoes.  I might need another outfit or two...

Next...Domina. This doll is just gorgeous. She is wearing Rosa Gloriosa, a SybMonde exclusive fashion. I have de-wigged all of my Sybarites but Domina is staying original. I think she is just perfect.

Last we have Neurotica. She is wearing Meeow. I forgot the name of the wig but it was a gift from a lovely friend in Portugal.

Meeow is a very strange and wonderful outfit but doesn't fit the new body perfectly. I think that in parts, it will be better than all together as it is now. The sweater has to go.

I saw this a few minutes ago on Rebecca Berry's blog, Inside the Fashion Doll Studio, and had to share it here.
