Fashion Forward...

I can't believe it has been over a month since my last post?!?!?! Yikes! I have a lot of things I could talk about, but I guess spending time with the family this summer has allowed time to FLY. You are all missed, and I regularly check to see everyone's new blog entries.

THE GOOD NEWS IS, I HAVE.....

Plans.... (aka see if I can actually make some stuff happen and dust the blog off)....

I promised more focus on fellas this year and I have SO NOT delivered. My collection of male fashion dolls continues to grow, and the need to showcase these handsome gentleman (well some of them are gentle...others not so much) has become more appealing lately. 

Two really great ideas from great doll friends were suggested to me and I am going to see what I can do....

Idea 1: Take a group shot of all your male fashion dolls. (Thank you Julie!) Sounds simple enough, but I assure you this will be a bit of a fun challenge. (^_^)

Idea 2: Have a Fashion Show event on my blog/Facebook page and invite everyone to come wearing their most fashionable and fabulous attire. Think Rod and Danielle's Wedding... (^_~)  This idea came from Vanessa at Van's Doll Treasures!  Thank you Vanessa!!

Now, in the spirit of the second idea I will share some recent outfits I have put together.... (Keep an eye out for the official invitation to share your amazing re-styled dolls who will be attending!)

 Model Name: Luna

 Model Name: Lenore

 Model Name: Blair

 Model Name: Blair

 Model Name: Desiree

 Model Name: Desiree

 (This last shot is just because I love this gal in the new Kimono I purchased. lol)

So, is a fashion show something you would be interested in attending here at A Doll Affinity and on your own blogs???

  4. Sunday would be all over a fashion show... I've got tons of shots of her in stylish outfits and she's always complaining that there is just no where to share them where people will appreciate her appropriately (whooaaaaaa... the ego on that Misaki!) XD

  5. Great idea! We are of one mind sometimes honey. Just yesterday I was itching to take Vita Plastica in a different direction and I want more emphasis on little-used characters and fashion. Count me in! Will our dolls be attendees or on the virtual runway? Great to have you back!!!

    1. Haha! We really do follow one mind with our dollies sometimes! (^_^) You pose some good questions.... Which would you prefer as a participant? Maybe I could post a style theme and every one could enter a model(male and female) styled for the virtual runway AND they could post their dolly divas/fellas who are not participating but attending??!? Great to be back!
