Moschino Barbie® Doll – Caucasian - African American

These dolls disappeared quickly. They were scheduled to go live at 6AM Pacific Time. That would be 9AM my time but they were gone before that. I hate the Barbie.Com website. Either their site crashes or they don't stick to schedules. Really messed up!
I would have ordered one just for the pieces of the outfit I like.
Their faces and bodies are turn-offs IMO.



The retail price of these Gold Label dolls was $150.  Gold Label editions are 25,000 or less.  Must have been a lot less to have disappeared so quickly.

Purse of the Month Club

I've often been asked how to join the Purse of the Month Club and I thought this would be a good subject for a blog post.
Every month, sisters Diana Wieler and Janet Ellis, send an email out to their mailing list with the Purse of the Month offerings. It's not just a purse, although you can buy just the purse.
They also offer coordinate ensembles, separates, accessories and a higher category called "Elite."

They do take requests to a certain extent as to size of a 12" doll body and length of skirt. I collected their bags for approximately three years and I adore them. They are made exceptionally well with wonderful fabrics and perfect little hardware. Now they're also offered in a scale to suit 16" dolls as well as 12" dolls.

Here is a very old photo showing bag, purse and shoes. I believe the outfit was also something they made.


This month's purses are influenced by Lulu Guinness bags. They are precious! Either bag is $32. plus shipping.


You might like the Lulu Library Tote that comes with a chiffon scarf for $30.


Please send all orders to:  dianawieler@sympatico.ca

Halloween Sybarite "Guillotine"

I missed the posting of this unique Halloween Sybarite. (Luckily for my credit card) Another collector was kind enough to send me the description and photo.
I just love the knife knitting needles. They're so fun. The gown is stunning. Someone commented that her lips are dark blue.
This beauty was a limited edition of 100 and sold out quickly as she was available to prior convention goers to pre-order.

Price before shipping = £255.25 or  $394.57
