If I were still collecting Fashion Royalty dolls, I'd be all over this outfit. I'm so tempted but since we moved, I vowed to reduce my 12" collection, not buy more. Sigh.

Kyori's dark hair and deep red lips keep the jacket from swallowing her looks. The accessory jewelry looks wonderful.

I'm all in with the oversized display collar and tucked in waist. The long sleeves are right with the rest of the jacket. I'm wondering what the fabric is.

Yes, it is a gorgeous look however; I'd love to see less of the fishtail skirts. Can you picture the difference an above the knee skirt would make?  I held my hand over the bottom of the skirt to visualize it. It would have been amazing to have an extra skirt to expand this fashion. I am not saying that this fashion is lacking but for this doll collector, nothing is ever enough.

The price was only $95.  And now it is sold out. It's no surprise it went so quickly.

Lacie Churchill Debut Collection

( I don't understand the used of the word DEBUT because Lacie has been in production since 2022)

Lacie's back story:

Lacie Churchill has been the Head of Domestic Production for the International Movie Studio "MoMax" for the past 3 years. Her many talents have been noticed by everyone and she was just asked to become the new CEO of "MoMax". Her adventures await - parties, award shows, corporate meetings and tending to the stars that "MoMax" uses for their many productions.  ("MoMax" seriously?)

Lacie is Tonner's latest creation. She is 16" and uses the new RTB102 body (see below)

BOLD STATEMENT  $265

Rooted Hair 

STAR GAZING  $235

Rooted Hair 

LACIE CHURCHILL BASIC  $150

Wigged Hair 

 

When I first saw this new sculpt, I thought Tiny Kitty and Simone Rouge. Look at the 2nd picture. If you know Tiny Kitty dolls, you will know what I mean. This is a good thing as I was not fond of the original Lacie or RTB101. This body looks slimmer and more proportioned. I still think Lacie's lower lip should be more defined like Simone Rouge's as seen in my photo below.

Don't Ever Move With a Doll Collection

 The move and 3 months later.

We survived. This house is smaller than the last as we intended but the property is about 4 times larger. Possibly a mistake there because Bob can't do as much as he used to.

The huge basement scares me. There are 4 "rooms." The windows are awful. Dust comes in. It's a very old house. That's enough about the house. We love the area. I love looking out the windows and seeing trees. That is a joy. 

The doll room. OMG. First of all, I wasn't physically well for two months. That seriously sucked! Can you imagine that I have two new Kingdom Dolls that are still in their boxes? There will probably be three more before the end of September. 

I have begun unpacking my Tonner dolls. After all these years, I still love Tyler and Co. Many will go in the doll cabinet I have placed in our dining room.  I packed most of them dressed or partly dressed which was a big time saver and they looked too beautiful to change.

The following photos are from the first few days we lived here. It's better now but not much.

All the moving boxes are unpacked now. I'm still trying to figure out how and where to locate the small and medium cases. My Ikea showcases are mostly along one wall but I'm thinking of moving them. Of course I am. Are we ever finished rearranging our doll rooms?

I made what I thought was a little video but when I tried to upload it, the app told me it exceeded permitted size. I'll try again.  I'm not familiar with converting video clips to stills or with making the file sizes smaller on videos. I'm sure there is an app on my Mac to do it but I have never gone there.

More, soon. 

We're Moving!

 Finally, after so many years of wanting to move, we found a house in the area I wanted to be in. 

The dolls and their clothing and accessories are packed. 

That was a nightmare. 

If you want me to reserve something for you until I unpack fully,

(in April) please let me know.

Fang Vote JINAFIRE LONG Doll, a new Monster High product...ENDS TODAY!

 I have to admit that when I saw this doll it stopped me in its tracks. A few years ago, I had a small Monster High collection. They were adorable but did not have the attraction for me that would make me continue to buy them. Jinafire Long is one I would have added. 

The details are so much fun and the total package is so creative.

Fang Club members helped design this doll for all Monster High fans! You’d expect some serious drip from a Fanghai fashion designer, and Jinafire Long doll brings it just in time for the Year of the Dragon. She appears as if she’s rising from the water in this absolutely ghoul-amorous gown inspired by her unique scaritage. Members submitted thousands of votes for her hairstyle, makeup, jewelry, nails, purse, shoes, and doll stand. The final creation is one you’ll crave for your collection.

• Monster High 2024 Fang Vote Jinafire Long Doll
