1-23-07 I can live without....


Yesterday I decided to sell 7 of my Fashion Royalty dolls. I was getting overwhelmed by them and I picked out the ones I can live without. They are both original close up Veroniques, RBW Kyori, Glam Slam Kyori, Something Hot Kyori, GOTM Vero and Via Venetto Adele. I don't play with these dolls and it's time for them to move on. I really never thought I would sell a Kyori because I prided myself on having all the Kyoris except redhead Ginza. But it is ridiculous to keep dolls for that reason. As of a few hours ago Redhead Vero and Glam Slam are sold. GOTM is not very popular for some reason. She is a little plain. But she still has the beautiful Vero face. VV Adele is severe and exotic looking. She was my first Fashion Royalty doll ever! I had a good time with her but it's sayonara Via Venetto.


 I'm considering purchasing an 8" BJD called Hana Angel by Rainman. She is an Elf Doll and very adorable. At $285 she is about $100 less than I would be paying retail if she were still available, which she is not. And the seller will be adding extra wigs, a tricycle and an extra outfit. It is a good deal. But what am I going to do with her? I hope she will be fun to pose and play with. That's all.

I've been playing alot with the doll arrangement in the showcases. Getting lots of taller bodies to replace the original articulated ones has really disordered the collection. I am still not satisfied with the appearance of the tall girls and the shorter ones. It's confusing.

It was fun playing with Ellery the other day. I love these pictures.







1-11-07 Royale Material Ensemble

This ensemble is called Royal Material. It was designed by Kate Mitsubachi and is a Japanese exclusive carried only by BIC. It is unbelievably well made. The jacket is lined in white with pink polka dot fabric! The hat is black lace that is applied in concentric circles. Everything about this outfit says quality. Most of my own clothing isn't as well made. Only the best for our dolls. Right?
