Designers Paper dolls by Danielle Meder

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

If you like the Rodarte fashion and you love dolls (me! me! again me!) here is something for you: Rodarte paper doll!

And even better, always by Danielle Meder, Viktor and Rolf paper doll, I love the costumes this doll comes with, absolutely chic, all in black…can you go wrong with black? Of course not ;-)

Alice in Wonderland

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

If you are caught as well in this “Alice in Wonderland” madness you will love the paper-crafts from Paperkraft: a nice shadowbox and a giant locket downloadable here.

From Paperinside you can get instead some of the creatures from Alice’s world, I love for example the caterpillar! So jump here and grab them!

And of course a nice paper doll of Alice herself :-)

Have fun!

New Barbies on the block

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

It looks like Mattel is going to release this year a modern version of the Superstar doll and Quintessential Barbie.

Here is Barbie Superstar:

To be honest the doll looks cute enough but not as the original, ok…ok…the original was MY DOLL as a child so perhaps I’m just sligtly partial. Still…what should I say? I’m not thrilled about the short dress and the big head.

I love instead the Quintessential Barbie:

I’m normally not a big fan of the model muse body but I find this doll so chic in her simplicity. The eyes paint looks amazing and I love the dress and…OMG..did you see the bag? She’s just Barbie: pink and glamorous. I hope she makes it to Europe :-) and I’ll buy two of them, one to debox and one to keep NRFB.

That little black dress

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I was browsing today around (what a surprise) and I saw pictures of the Basic Barbies redressed by CDFA designers, I love them!!!

Look at this amazing group pictures, are they not the apex of glamour and fashion?

My favourites of the bunch are the Justin Giunta Barbie:

and Betsey Johnson‘s doll

I especially love the necklace on the first doll, such a chunky funky chaos of chains and the gown of the second doll.

They are all so in tune with the fashion of the moment.

I think the people as Asos got inspired and they decided to “redress” Barbie as well (found via impossibleprincess)

And by the way, they are selling the dolls as well, at around 30 pounds, I think it is the cheapest price I saw in Europe at the moment.
