Homage to Vanessa

Here is a picture of every Vanessa in my collection.  A few have been re-rooted. One is a duplicate who has been repainted and re-rooted.  There are a few I have never redressed.

Shirred Not Shaken

I never realized there were so many redhead Vanessas! The last two pictures are not the same doll although the appearance is remarkably similar.

The New Veronique Dolls aka Fauxnique

Shuga Shug posted beautiful photos of the new dolls today. She has graciously given me permission to post them here.
What do you all think of this new sculpt?

 I think it's a lovely-looking doll but it's not Veronique. The next issue of this gal will have applied eyelashes. I think they were testing the waters by not putting lashes on her. My favorite of the two is the raven-haired one. I like the color of her lips and her blue eyes.

Japan

May our Japanese friends find the aid and safety they need in the hours and days that follow this latest display of Mother Earth's power.

......

Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change, and though the mountains be moved into the heart of the seas; 
Though the waters thereof roar and foam, though the mountains shake at the swelling thereof. Selah

               Interesting that two dresses can be so similar yet be so close in time of release. 
Designers thinking alike?
