I Love Shopping

I love shopping for toys :O) I couldn't resist the 50% Ken Barbie sale at TRU. I wish it applied to everything but I'm happy with what it did cover. I was able to fill in a couple of the gaps in my SIS dolls. I also picked up some things because they were cheap and body swaps happen around here. 









I also found myself a Diana Ross doll on the cheap on my eBay spree. She was in a lot with Ricky Ricardo in his tux. I've wanted one of these ladies for a while. They do tend to be a bit pricey at times. She was already on an articulated bod so that made it so much better.  They are both welcome additions to my vinyl world. I need to find something for her to wear she came to me nude.




My Momoko came too and I love her. I needed a brunette in the mix. I will set her free soon.



This pic is totally not doll related. I was out with some friends in the city and we were walking down 5th Avenue and spotted the Louis Vuitton display. All of these are purses and other clothing items made to look like animals. I just loved the concept

    You were bitten by the shopping bug! Awesome stuff. I intentionally stayed away from the TRU sale and looking at your items, it was a wise move on my part. I would not have been able to pass up articulated dolls. I would have been spending some serious bill money. I can't believe you got Diana! She wasn't on my list until last week when I saw someone on flickr who redid her as Janet Jackson. I received 4 dolls in the mail last week, and 4 more are on the way. And my holy grail Colette is on hold for me to buy her in April. Can you say empty refrigerator? Who needs to buy food when you can buy dolls.

Flea Market Fun

Image
I was talked into going to Englishtown (flea market) and boy am I glad I went. I wasn't enthusiastic at first since we were leaving  after noon which means all the good stuff is usually gone. I didn't take a ton of money but for about $20 I found some goodies I'm proud of.  My 1st find of the day I picked up the Sophie & two NFL Jerseys for $3. I love LIV bodies for body swaps. Those jerseys will come in handy for either the ladies or a couple of guys. Next find I up 3 dolls and 2 books (not pictured) for $6. Not sure which Christie's or Teresa this is. Teresa must be a ballerina (note the purple colored plastic legs). The Christie's are pretty. They came dressed as you see them. Teresa is having a slight wardrobe malfunction. The last find of the day I was uber happy because I spotted the Princess of Ancient Mexico for $4. She doesn't have her headdress,  necklace, or armlets but hey for $4 I'm still happy. I've wanted her for quite...

Mass Blogger Interview Answers For Ms Leo

I decided to answer Ms. Leo interview questions from   I Luv Dolls . Give it a try I'm interested in your answers too When did you start collecting dolls? Oddly enough I didn't start collecting dolls until my late 20's. My brothers had action figures (Star Wars, GI Joe). What was your first purchase as a collector ? My 1st purchase was Kelly Barbie's littlest sister in her crib. I guess we can say I loved the littlest one (at the time) first. How many dolls do you own? Really not sure at this point but figure I have over 300 Kelly & friends. My Fashion Royalty collection is about 130 - 150 at this point (I haven't inventoried lately). I'm pretty sure Barbie & friends is about 350 or more (remember haven't inventoried in a while). This is just a guesstimate so I will say about 800 including all lines but I may be exaggerating since I've also been selling stuff for a few years now..LOL What is your favorite doll and why? I'm not g...
