Engaging Elise Gets a Re-Style

This is such a gorgeous doll! I like her even more now that I took her hair down.

  



Here's her original look.




So different. What an amazing sculpt!

For one, he's been available to us fans via email and on Facebook and he has graciously agreed to do an interview in honor of Gene's one year retirement.


The interview will be published on or about June 1st on my blog.

This is going to be a collaborative interview and I am seeking questions from all Gene-o-philes.

Please email me your questions. You can find my email address by going to More About Me in the right hand column where my picture is. That will take you to the page that has my contact email.

 You will have an opportunity to heap praise on Mel in the comments section of the interview once it's published. Just send your questions now, please.

Wilde Imagination's New Offerings

I swear it's enough to drive a doll collector mad. Several new Ellowyne and Evangeline items were released last week.

I am so in love with this Evangeline but I will not buy another EG until they fix her body issues.  I hope someone over at the TDC reads this and takes it seriously because I'm on a campaign to get that body reworked. PLEASE DO SOMETHING to make Evangeline more user friendly. She's stiff and awkward and for a doll whose price is $175. we should get a doll that poses nicely and can sit up straight. Doncha think?


 She is called Imaginary Life. LE350 Her price is $175. She's vinyl with inset teal eyes and applied lashes. I want her so badly.  I  love that she's not wearing black, gray or red. She is so beautiful. I don't think I would even redress her. 
This is Dark Desire. $175. Vinyl. Inset green eyes. Rooted black hair with white stripes. She is cool but reminds me of so many of prior EGs.

The newest EG fashion is called Gothic Romance. It's priced at a painful $110. and doesn't come with shoes. The shoes, Plum Paces, would go well with this fashion. Of course it's gorgeous but it's not a must have. Will fit resin and vinyl bodies. LE300. Ships after June 10th. 
Some EG fashions are so fabric rich one could make two outfits from them.  The fabrics used are gorgeous and I haven't found a single problem with any fashion item I've purchased. 


"FREE Shipping on any order of $75 or More! Free shipping within Continental U.S. only. International customers use Promo Code SMILE14INT at checkout to receive $9.95 OFF any order of $75 or more. This promotion ends June 4th at midnight ~ so don't wait!"

The newest Ellowyne is called Going in Circles. Rooted brown hair and painted green eyes. The outfit is cute. She retails for $149. and is an LE of 1000. She comes with a stand.

There are some other new dolls and fashions. See the WI site for those. You can download a digital catalog and see really big images. Nice!

Ellowyne has a new shoe collection. If you want to buy them separately, that's an option, too. As a collection the price is $128.
