Pretty Nostalgic

Introducing our entry for the Neo Blythe Beauty Contest:

🇫🇷🥐🌹Paige’s Pen Pal 🌹🥐🇫🇷

Created with Sally Thorne

I am so nervous, my stomach is full of butterflies! I have been brave and travelled alone from my family’s rose farm in the French countryside to Paris, so I can meet my Japanese pen pal. We have written letters to each other since we were children, but have never met in person, until today! Will she recognize me?”

Paige is a reliable, sentimental girl. She waits for Yuko on a cobblestone street near the Eiffel Tower. ‘Oh, there she is now! It is like we have never been apart!’

Hidden details in Paige’s outfit nod to letter-writing. Her jacket features our handwriting and has stamp-shaped trim. Her box-pleated dress is adorned with red bows and her tote is a stamp. Her hat features a wax-seal inspired button.

Paige has sun-kissed light brown hair. Her fair skin has freckles and a satin finish. Her eyeshadow and lashes are brown, her blush is peach. She has special foiled eye colours: Rose Red, Dove Grey, French Navy and Champagne Gold. Her lips are full and pouty. She seals her letters to Yuko with a red lipstick kiss, she’s wearing it today! Très chic! 💋💋

Happy birthday Blythe!

Blythe feels that dizzy dreamy vibe at Hanging Rock ✨️🍄

What we see and what we seem are but a dream, a dream within a dream.

Found this doll head at Goodwill in the US for a few dollars. She had a haircut but I was able to neaten it up a bit. I think she looks cute with a bob.

ARE YOU OPEN TO DOLLS WITH A HAIR CUT?

Check out the history of Blythe dolls, in under 5 minutes. I had to skim through it rather quickly. Maybe I will do more of these deep dives as it was super fun:
