New message forum - Dollywood

Dollywood is a message forum is designed for the collector 18 years and older for posting all kinds of pictures of fashion dolls with a fierce angle. There is a chat room available as well.

No prejudices or boundaries--just fierce dolls. It's a great board so far, and it just opened on July 3. Go check it out and introduce yourself!

New items at Superfrock

Innoquii is now proudly selling its porcelain nurse doll, a lovely 14" tall limited edition of 300. She has black hair and violet glass eyes with applied lashes, red lips, pierced ears. Her tattoos are mostly medically related--a syringe, pills, various symbols and a barcode.

Her outfit includes underwear, a white cotton dress and organza apron, white nurse's hat and transparent IV handbag. She's selling for 200 GBP.

Also, a new accessory pack called Knife is on sale today as well. 35GBP will get you a new bag, matching stiletto heels and nameplate necklace.

Harmoni in Pink

Harmoni in Pink, originally uploaded by alington.

My newest Berdine Creedy doll has arrived, Harmoni. She's actually from the 2008 Butterfly Child collection, a 12-3/4" resin ball-jointed doll, which I got on a great sale from Sweetheart's Dolls. This size is just so perfect for play and photography--easy to dress, fun to pose.

This is not her original outfit, though I do plan to photograph that soon as well. Harmoni is shown here in an exclusive outfit for Sweetheart's Dolls by Michele Hardy called Precious in Pink. It just suited her too well not to snap a few photos. You can see a few of them on Flickr or the full photoshoot on Mobile Me.

Harmoni includes two wigs (a blonde bob with lime green highlights and a black longer wig with bangs), and two pairs of eyes (these green ones and a pair of brown eyes), plus the outfit Going Green, a harlequin style fun suit designed by Paulette Goodreau, with a matching teddy bear and black and green back-zip boots.

I just love this doll for her pouty little expression. She just does not look thrilled. I see this look on a daily basis from my two girls at home (and sometimes from my boys), so she's as close to my own kids as I could get. She's just adorable! And again, very photogenic.

Peak's Woods Haute Doll Exclusive Claudine

I see a new Peak's Woods doll in my future... but probably not this Goldie, named Claudine. She's the new exclusive doll featured in the upcoming Haute Doll magazine. An SD size, these lovely ABJDs are 58 cm tall, and are really some of my favorite sculpts. This one has a normal bust, white skin, and is sold nude with eyes, with bite marks on her neck--with a face-up prototype by Val Zeitler.

She retails for $760 for subscribers and $810 for non-subscribers. Just a reference point--basic Peak's Woods SD dolls include two sets of eyes and a random wig for $522.

There will also be a fun-looking collection of clothes, also designed by Valerie Zeitler and produced by Doll Heart. The clothing and accessories are from the Eerie Attic of Val's Rag Patch--and if it's at all close to last year's collection, we're in for a real treat.

Claudine and the clothing line goes on sale July 20, but we should be able to preview them tomorrow, July 6.
