Getting Sidetracked

Getting sidetracked is not the end of the world..thank goodness :O)  I've been behaving myself and working hard on sticking to my goal of only adding 40 dolls this year. I should mention my very own loophole (insert evil laugh). I will buy something if it's on sale and has something I really want. Case in point I found this set a couple of weeks ago. 
Sisters' Fun Day set


I really love Skipper in this set. Everything from her hair to her boots scream YES to me. I bought this set but Barbie is leaving the island (naked of course). I also will be swapping Skipper's body. 



I found these dolls in one of my shopping looks. They are a group called 5th Harmony. I just looked but only one came home with me.

This doll has the cutest complete design outfits. The doll is in the go pile. I see lots of things while I'm out shopping but these days I'm a lot more picky in what I will buy. I'm not a fan of what I call cheap fabrics and one sided designs. We all know what I mean. Mattel has a trend of one sided designs going on. I refuse to pay full price for half a dress. I'm not knocking anyone else if they love the design on the dress and buy it. It's ok with me. I just personally am upset that the prices keep going up but we're getting less for that price. Enough of that we'll be back to our regularly scheduled programming in 3...2...1

Ok, not that quick but until the next post have fun with your dolls :O)

    Skipper is too hot nowadays, I'll pick one of the new release and rebody her on the new articulated ankle feet Style barbie body. 5th Harmony are creepy, IMO

      I'm loving Skipper but definitely not buying them all :O) Yeah 5th Harmony aren't grabbing my attention. That's why she's leaving.

    Fifth Harmony got such good faces... I was disappointed that they decided not to articulate those.

      For their price point even partial articulation would've been nice. I hope to find them on sale somewhere. I may get one more ;O)

    I agree with Smaller Places about being disappointed that they decided not to articulate. What is up with that! Let see them try to sell a MH without being articuluation.

      Like I replied even partial articulation would make them worth it. I just picked Ally because she was the only one there was one of and her outfit is complete :O)

    I like that Skipper, too. Congrats on getting her and her with nice face screening ;-)

    I like the Fifth Harmony dolls, too. Course I need to see what they look like in the vinyl.

    Good idea, keeping to your decision to be more selective about what you buy.

    I have not seen the Harmony dolls yet. I have not set an amount of dolls to purchase this year, but I need to. Lol!! Thus far, I am being very disciplined.

      Girl, I had to set a limit. I still haven't finished going through the stuff I bought & traded for last year LOL. That number is well over 40. I still have to start listing some dolls to go this weekend :O)

    40 sounds like a lot! Good luck! btw, I thought I was already a follower. Funny things are happening on Google!

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...

Has anyone noticed that Mattel's Creatable World has taken over? Well, I certainly have. So much so that I now own five of their deluxe packages that includes a doll.  They now have single doll packs, deluxe clothing packs, single clothing packs, and wigs too.
