Style Girl Isla Gets A New Look!

Hi Doll Friends!!

As I mentioned in my last post about Style Girls Dolls at Big Lots, I recently made-over a Style Girl doll I purchased at Aldi in 2013. She had rather thin hair and I have always known I wanted to re-wig her but just hadn't found the right wig... Untill...

I found a new wig seller on Amazon.com called STFantasy. I was super impressed by the quality of this wig! Just look at the box! So nice!! 

It even had two little barrettes tucked in... 

Here is Isla right after I tried on the wig... I loved it immediately!!

So off came her hair! As you can see from how far apart her hair was plugged, her hair was very thin... It was ok hair, just not much of it and you could alway see through to her scalp.

Here she is right after I glued on the wig...

And after I trimmed her bangs (be kind! I am not a hair stylist! LOL). Here she is modeling the Style Girl Outfit I found the other day at Big Lots. It was $7.00 and being as it comes with a pair of shoes, a handbag and hair band in addition to the cute top and leggings make it a pretty good deal I think. 

Here she is with my other Style Girl Doll (on her left) Tina. She also has rather thin hair and will likely get a new 'do' someday when I find the right wig for her. 

Here is Tina, Isla, Calla, Juliessa, David, Rain and Angela in Calla's Diner and Sweet Shoppe.

Better run!

Doll Sized Fruit Bits From eBay

Hi Again Doll Friends!

Here is another one that has been stuck in drafts for a month or better. I got these adorable doll sized fruit bits from eBay in early October and have been meaning to do a cute post about them with the dolls making smoothies and such... But I got them right around Halloween and just haven't had a chance to make it happen. As you can see, I put them in the Doll fridge and that is where they still are...! So I'll try and incorporate them into a post soon.

Style Girls 18 Inch and 14 Inch Dolls At Big Lots!

Hi Doll Friends!!

Being a member of several different Doll Groups in Facebook, I tend to hear the 'latest' news in all things 18inch doll related rather quickly. Or in any case, I hear it eventually.. Case in point? A doll friend on Facebook mentioned and showed a photo of a very cute 14 Inch doll from Big Lots. She mentioned the brand name was 'Style Girls' and I was even more intrigued.

If you've read my blog here for a while, you may remember I have a few Style Girls in my 18inch doll collection that I found at Aldi during Christmas season 2013. That was the height of my daughters love of 18inch dolls and so I bought three of them as friends to the AG Saige doll she was getting from her Grandma and Grandpa. All of my daughters dolls now live in the Doll House until she decides she's not too old to play dolls again... (Note I say that like it's absolutely going to happen... But I can hold out hope, right? Teehee) However, outside of seeing the doll clothes a few times at Tuesday Morning, I'd never seen them again. 

So, naturally, the next time I was in town, I had to run to Big Lots to see what they looked like in person. And sure enough, there they were and such a variety of different girls they had too! I actually 'only' have two Style Girls now because I got rid of one when I had a doll purge once... She'd gotten a really bad stain from a dress with black dye in it and... Well, I gave her to Goodwill. Doll regrets! Now that I know the zit cream method I might've been able to fix her right up. Anyway, I digress. However, since I have so many dolls in the Doll House (around 150 is the number I try to keep it to) I probably won't get another one. However, they also have accessories and clothes!! 

I was in a huge hurry when I stopped in because I needed to get back to work from my lunch hour that day but... I snapped a photo of each of the dolls I saw. This one is a bit blurry but you can see her pretty green eyes. 

I have this little gal, mine is named Isla and she has been rewigged with a purple and black wig... As I type that I realize I probably haven't posted a blog about that makeover! So, I'll have to tell you about that soon but trust me, she's gorgeous!!

The eyelashes on the right hand side of this dolls face were a bit wonky. So my advice is, if you can, go to store to pick out your doll. But otherwise, their eyes are so pretty!

If I did buy another one, I suspect this little gal would be her. Isn't she pretty!

This one seemingly has a bit more narrow face sculpt. It makes her look a bit older, I think?

Here is the back of the box showing their names. 

They had little clothing sets for $7 but this fox one was the only one left... So naturally bought it because what a cute top!! It's on Isla as I type this, I just haven't had a chance to take a photo of her in it yet. So, two reasons to make a post about her! 

They had a sleeping bag set that would make a cute gift.

And a vet set... (Sorry it's blurry, did I metion I was in a hurry? Oh look! That rhymed. LOL)

They had pets for the dolls.

And carrier bags...

And even ponies!! A whole doll line! It looks like 'Play Zone' make them now and I am not sure that was the case when I got mine in 2013?

I didn't think they had any of the 14inch dolls in stock because they weren't in same area as the others Style Girls I saw... Then I saw the three they had left on an endcap. They had Piper and Quinn but were out of Skylar. I surprised myself and didn't buy one... I am eagerly (and somewhat impatiently) waiting for Target to finally put out the Glitter Girls I've been hearing about for weeks on my Doll Groups discussion page. Another case of a store doing a dismal job of releasing a new toy line. They've had some store put them out on the shelves weeks ago and sent samples, apparently, to prominent doll bloggers... (which is awesome, don't get me wrong) They should release it all at once! Right? I digress. My point is that I plan to buy one (or two?) of those when they do eventually hit my stores and... Well... A girl can only have so many dolls, right?

However, I don't know if I can hold out from buying this little gal eventually because she's cute and her outfit is totally adorable!! That unicorn!!

So stay tuned because I'll be back to show you the outfit and Isla in her new hair. I hope this finds you looking forward to a relaxing weekend!!

Till next time!

Dolls Go Trick Or Treating!!

Hi Doll Friends,

Happy Halloween!!

It's that time of year again... It seems like the Dolls just went Trick Or Treating last year! So some of the Dolls went Trick Or Treating this last weekend.

It's always kind of hard to get Trick Or Treating photos because it's dark out... But that's part of the magic of them too, right?

What a great group of Trick Or Treaters!

The Dolls also had another Halloween Party like last year but I haven't had the chance to get those photos posted yet. 

What are you dressing up for for Halloween this year?

Better run!
