2017 and Mori Girls


Hi everybody! I guess this is my first 2017 post and also the first in a while :) As usual, my busy life keeps me from coming here more often, but I'm far from leaving this sweet corner behind. I promise to update myself in your blogs too soon.

Meanwhile, let me present you my newest collection from my Etsy shop: the Mori Girls series!! I've got 2 sweet girls ready so far. I recently came across the Mori Girl lifestyle and I just love it! It almost completely describes myself and it's just adorable.

Mori girl translates from the Japanese into Forest Girl. It's a look and a lifestyle created in Japan around 2010. The goal is to look as if you're living in the woods, dressing in its colors, with mainly loose outfit pieces and lots and lots of layering. It's ok to use ruffles, lace, natural materials and whimsical accessories. And that is all these girls are about.




 The first in the series is called Maya.


And now there's Lily too.

I created very natural looking boxes for them too.

What do you think?

Your Mori girls are cute! And yes, this Mori revolution is quite nice, a wonderful relief from all that urban jazz. I am a Japanophile and I have loved this Mori thing going since I discovered Momoko dolls. It's great to see Barbie's pulling it off, too! Great job there!

Sasha: thank you so much for your comment! In Portugal the Mori Girl style is pretty unknown, even for most fashion lovers. But I think some Barbie dolls look great on it :)

Yeah, I think Barbies look great in Mori Girl clothing too! I might try it with my girls when it gets colder here. You see, I live in a tropical country and as of late, it's still in 35 plus degree Celsius.

A Evolução da Sindy

Imagem
Apreciada por muitos coleccionadores, a Sindy teve um percurso bem conturbado! A Sindy é uma boneca inglesa criada nos inícios dos anos 60 pela empresa Pedigree, surgindo como uma rival à Barbie. Apesar do corpo ter proporções diferentes, era uma boneca bonita, com roupas de qualidade e que reflectiam a moda da altura, além de possuir um mobiliário bem mais realista que o da Barbie. Teve vários facemolds ao longo dos anos, mas o mais procurado nas Sindy vintage são semelhantes aos da imagem. Foi a boneca mais vendida no Reino Unido durante os anos 60/70! Depois de uma tentativa para introduzir a boneca no mercado americano que falhou, os direitos da Sindy foram comprados pela Hasbro, nos anos 90, que lhe deu um aspecto mais americano e semelhante à Barbie. Esta mesma semelhança fez com que a Mattel iniciasse um processo judicial contra a Hasbro, que se viu obrigada a acabar com esse facemold da Sindy. Durante esse processo, a Sindy já estava em declínio a perder clientes p...

Cromos das Pastilhas Elásticas :: Stickers from Chewing Gums

Imagem
Esta imagem é uma das páginas de uma pequena caderneta Barbie, de 1995, cujos cromos saíam em pastilhas elásticas! Porque não voltam a fazer uma destas! Os cromos representavam as Barbies e roupas mais famosas destes dourados anos 90. Ficavam um bocadinho pegajosos de virem agarrados às pastilhas, mas era muito divertido! *** This picture is from a little Barbie sticker album, from 1995, which stickers were available with chewing gums! Why don't they produce this things again? The stickers pictured the most famous Barbies and her fashions from the golden 90's. It tended to be a little sticky, because they came around the chewing gums, but it was so funny!

Another Collection Update

Imagem
I've been away for awhile but my collection isn't frozen in time. It has grown at a steady, slow pace to keep finances under control and a collection based on good taste and quality instead of just quantity. Anyway I've also been very busy in my professional and personal life so I don't have lots of imagination right now. Here goes the update to my collection (as far as I can remember): My Clara doll was a gift from my friend Patricia, but she came to me nude. Once in a while I got her a nice dress but Patricia surprised me again and she gave me Marzipan's ballerina dress. Clara was very happy and she loves to pose with her new dress. This Haute Côuture gown has been running away from me since it was released, some 19 years ago. It's rare and expensive. Some while ago I bought one from a Spanish woman but she kept the money and never sent the dress. Finally it's in my collection, no more running. Ok this isn't such a great find, but I alw...
