City shopper Barbie doll X8257

This beauty is the "City shopper" Barbie (X8257). She's really cool. Though I usually loose the hair of all my dolls, I like very much her ponytail so I think she will keep it.

She is wearing our mustard gabardine, our mustard skirt and our pink body.

I hope you like her as much as I do.

In the next weeks I will show you some of my new girls. I bought a lot of Barbies when I was in Orlando last September 😀 There are much more assortment and best prices in the USA than in Spain so I bought a lot of them online (both in Amazon.com and Mattel) to be sent to my hotel. This is me when I arrived at the hotel and pick them all 😂 It was like Christmas time for me!

OOAK Barbie

 
August is a quiet month here in Spain, so I took advantage to do many things for my dolls 😊 I made this wood wainscot following the great tutorial of Bonequea. And I painted this thick foam core board on both sides: one in grey (the one I used in these photos) and one in pale blue. The "marble ground" is a printable that you can free download here.

The girls in the previous photo are "Look Cocktail Chic (DGY09)" with MTM body and "Tokidoki (CMV57)" with repaint, reroot and a Look body.

The repaint was made by Sara from "My dolls, My world" and I couldn't love her more. She is stunningly beautiful ♥ And Sara was such a wonderful person ♥ ♥ ♥

The reroot was made by Gema Trenado. Gema was so nice with me: the doll has been repainted before rerooted, and she took care of not damaging her make-up.

Shopgirl dress Barbie

Do you know "The shopgirl Barbie"? I love her dress so I wanted to have a similar dress and here it is.

I bought the beautiful mirror to António from "As Miniaturas do Toca" (Portugal). I couldn't love it more. The wardrobe is from "Furniture for Dolls" (Ukraine).

The doll is "Stunning in the spotlight" Silkstone Barbie.
