Few days ago I bought a jacket for my Kate and today bought a whole set for Jake (he seriously needed shoes so now he finally got them along with some additional clothing). This is how they look now. :)

Not exactly "my" buy, someone bought her for me, but I have a second Arwen on the way. I'm going to use her body and the one from the original one for a little swap. They're a perfect match for these other dolls I collect and I have always wanted to totally articulate two of those. I'm going to take the Tonner heads and put them on the other doll bodies and maybe do a repaint and wig on the second Arwen head so she can have a pal. What I am going to do with the 2 Arwen dresses I don't know, but probably I'll sell them online somewhere or swap them at the next local doll meet. It's a nice outfit. Probably it will go for near as much as I got the doll for even sans boots. I can live without them. I have got several dresses in the style that would be appropriate for them.

Finally bought a moxie teen (since they're dying a death over here I thought I should get one before they dissappear altogether, plenty of moxie girl things though)

She's huge! Really pretty face
BUT! Ew her hair looks and feels like how mine would if I never washed it... and she's one of the one's with broken elbow syndrome... Nevertheless she's kinda awesome

New cute stuff for props! Now all I need to do is finish my girls so they can use this stuff!

This one had some awful tasting hard candy in it. >_> My husband actually liked it though, so he ate it. O_o

Cali got a new wig, but apparently I'm addicted to the pink one instead, so she wore this for all of... 20 mins.

A hobby isn't supposed to leave you wistful, regretful and vaguely disappointed. BJD collecting is as customizable as the dolls themselves. Do whatever pleases you the most, because otherwise, why do it at all? All for the 'Gram Bitches love the 'Gram.

I'm going to be doing my laundry in the tub, laugh. I just spent my laundry quarters on three Barbie Basics at TJ Maxx!! (Kidding my BFF will let me use her washer, but I'll be hanging laundry on the line for sure.) The last of their 1.0 girls were marked down to $3 and they were the last 3 on the shelf. Even though I had 2 out of 3 I couldn't resist at that price. $3 that's just crazy. One of them was the fabulous updo raven Kayla and another was the Raven Mackie with the bangs from the 1.5 collection. I love those two. The last one was the superstar face with the short brunette Sassoon type asymmetrical cut.

I think I am going to use the 2nd Mackie and the 2nd Kayla for Tokyo type re-roots, root in streaks or something, have some fun. I can't really afford the Fallen Angel Stardoll right now and I have major qualms about paying $20 for a doll sans any articulation anyway. I'd really like an Asian girl with raven hair and red streaks though and with a little effort and creativity the 2nd Kayla would do admirably. I'll probably change up her eye make up a bit too, maybe go for a bit of a high fashion Kabuki theater look. The Mackie I haven't decided what color yet but likely I'll give her colored streaks and some more color to her makeup too.

I think that's like 25-30 of them now? Not sure. But I definitely have a whole crew of these, lol. About the only one left that I really want is that AA guy.

Not doll related, but when I was in CVS after work for unrelated reasons I finally bought one of those Goody bun spiral pins. Alone it is laughably inefficent for the length and thickness of my hair, but when used with the pair of spiral pins I already have it works really well! Just the three pins rather than, I don't know, a dozen, and it's a lot quicker, easier, and feels more secure than with a hair tie and bobby pins. I love putting my hair up but it's heavy, so it's hard to keep everything in place for any length of time and not poke myself in my scalp with pointy things and it tends to slide out anyway.

...Yaaaay I can put my hair up easy without getting pissed with it or having get it trimmed. XD

Ellie's wig bugs me a bit, it's cute but too childish, so I just bought her this one:
