My friend Laura is an amazing OOAK Barbie designer. She has a LOT of talent and I hope she’ll make it big one day. This is her latest creation and it’s just breathtaking. Bravo Laura!

You can see her creations here.

As you all know I’m a HUGE Ninimomo fan. I think their work is amazing and they are also lovely people. I love following their dolls and this week we have six more beauties. Love them! You can follow Nik and Marie on their Facebook page also.

I have no ideea why at first I didn’t like her. She’s amazing and I can’t wait to have her. She’s a DREAM!

The first real preview of this year’s BFC Exclusive dolls is here. Even if I thought that this year will be boring when it comes to Collector dolls I must admit that a new Silkstone Francie sound soooo good plus I like the sketch for the Platinum Label Rush of Rose Gold. Not crazy about the club doll, Afternoon Suite Barbie, as I’m not into this kind of Silkstones, but I now collectors that went crazy when they first saw her.

So yey for 2012! Too bad I can’t still join becasue I don’t have a US adress.

Mario of Magia 2000 has just published on his Facebook two pictures of the latest Carrie SATC Barbie the duo has made. She is the last in the series and is wearing the famous Geminola ballet inspired dress Carrie wore in the last episode of Sex and The City.

Lovely, lovely, lovely!

The last days of 2011 have brought me one of the dolls I’ve been thinking for the entire year: Barbie Inspired by Leonardo da Vinci . My dear friend Catalin, who is also responsible for the fact that I Can Be…Katrina Kaif doll is in my collection, has given me this amazing present! There’s no need for me to tell you how amazing she is. The Mackie face looks so angelic and I LOVE her delicate articulated hands. But what most surprised me is her box. Clearly this doll was made for the European market as the text on both the front and the back of the box is written in many European languages INCLUDING Romanian.

Never in a million years did I expect that as Romania is such a young country when it comes to doll collecting. Our community is still small… I’m going to write an email to Mattel to ask them about this. Does this mean we’ll have more collector dolls here? Does this mean there’s going to be a Mattel Romania? Questions, question!

Can’t wait to find out the answer.

Ok, so I admit: I’m a Hasbro/Vivid/Giochi Preziosi Sindy fan! They were around in the 90s in my country and that’s when I fel in love with them. I think these dolls need more love from the doll community. They are cute, sweet, have great fashions and they do justice to the fab 90s. So, if you’re a modern Sindy fan, please join me on my Facebook group and on the Flickr group. Also you can find lot’s of Sindy and Barbie commercials on my YouTube chanel.

Any 80′s Barbie fans here? I’m looking for a moderator for my 80s Barbie Facebook page. The page was created by my dear friend Paul but both of us have other projects to take care of so we need someone fabulous, with a lot of Barbie and 80s love to take care of this great page.

Leave your comments here if you are interested and tell us something about you and why you want to help us.

I just love the Barbie sisters sets. They are so much fun and so well made. The new Stacie and Skipper sets are just adorable. You can preorder them here. Kind of expensive for me so I’ll wait for them to be on sale.

The pics of the new Twilight Barbie and Ken are here! I’m not a Twilight fan. Sorry… Really don’t understand all the fuss about these movies but I must admit this Bella Wedding Barbie is very beautiful. I really love the dress and the way they respeted the original one, but Edward looks horrible! He is so stiff and looks like he has no neck. The clothes are nice but the actual doll is not.

They will be available for 29.99$ each.
