Interview with bombom of Tiny Feet & SugarDoll

Filipa, better known as bombom in the doll hobby, is a lady I greatly admire. Aside from creating the cutest doll clothes for her shop, The SugarDoll, she is also the force behind the popular doll magazine, Tiny Feet. I absolutely love the work she does for both her shop and the magazine.

In this interview, Filipa talks passionately about her craft and love for the hobby. It's a little lengthy, but it's an interesting read. Enjoy!

Theme Thursday: Dark Mori Girl

Dark Mori girl is Mori girl's more gothic sister. The baggy and layered silhouette and the nature and vintage motifs are still there, but the lace is tattered, the flowers and feathers are dark (or even dead and dry), the make up is more striking and primal, and the cute woodland fauna are replaced with skulls and skeletons.

As ShadyOaks on Tumblr puts it:

"If a mori girl is a sheep, the black forest girl is the wolf. She and the romantic goth have many interests in common, the metaphysical and the macabre are as fascinating and beautiful a facet of nature as life and light. Rather than letting the “memento mori” idea get them down in the dumps, they allow it to let them appreciate living while respecting death."

I've been recently toying with the idea of dressing up Blair in dark mori girl fashion. There is a mystery in her eyes that I can't quite put a finger on; I only know that she has a darker side to her. I've also been stalking the DoA marketplace for a Minifee Miyu SP head, which would be perfect for dark mori!Blair. Ahh, ideas, ideas. Now if only my income was directly proportionate to my wants!

Game of Thrones Pop! Vinyl Figures by Funko

Game of Thrones fans, get your wallets ready! Funko has created a new series of Pop! vinyl figures based on the popular fantasy franchise. The designs are based on the TV show portrayals, and boy are they cute! These are expected to hit the shelves this coming November. Are you excited? I am! 8D

Below are the six characters included in this release:

I have one qualm though: why is Tyrion's hair brown? What happened to his golden Lannister locks? I also wonder why they released The Hound and the White Walker from season 2. They're cool-looking but they seem like odd options for the first release. Releasing figures of Jon Snow and Cersei Lannister make more sense. Anyway, I love them. I'm definitely getting Daenerys and Drogo! ♥♥♥
