Future Doll Plans

I've been going back and forth with my plans for my doll family. It started with just one, then I promised myself I'd stop at two. But let's be real here, who has ever entered this hobby and managed to be content with just one or two? XD Well if you're one of those people, you have my respect lol!

So yeah, what you see below is my doll family plan for now. Stress on the "for now" because I don't want to finalize everything so soon. I'll just do what feels natural to me. ^u^

You can make your own doll family photo here. Careful though, some of the options are NSFW. XD

The image is anachronistic actually. The first five characters are the older versions of Blair and Miette and their new friends, siblings Rowan, River and Ravi. The last three are young Blair, Marion and baby Miette.

You may be wondering where these new characters came from all of a sudden. XD If you follow me on Flickr or Instagram, you'd see I've been writing drabbles about Blair and her life. So far, only Marion has been introduced, but I plan on writing the other characters in, too. :D

I already have planned sculpts for all of them, but as with everything in this hobby, nothing is final until you hit that "Check out" button. We'll just have to wait and see, right?

Anyway, thanks for reading my pointless rambling. ^^;

Get the Look: American Horror Story (SD)

I am crazy obsessed with American Horror Story: Coven right now. It's so weird, gross and crazy in a really good way. XD Other than the awesome witchy goodness, what draws me even more to the show is the fashion the actresses sport!

So here's my take on the show's modern gothic glamor, tailored specially for SD girls. Wearing an all-black ensemble has never looked so bewitching. ;)

1. Wid-brimmed Hat: Black Jazz Hat from Tata's Paradise, $20
2. Wig: Wig Model D-2 (HLG) from Licht, $18
3. Retro Shades: Black Frame Glasses from Alice's Collections, $12
4. Cross Necklace: Cross Necklace from Tata's Paradise, $8

6. Asymmetrical Dress: One Piece Dress from SWDoll, $21.50

ManikaManila Tiangge 2013 + People's Choice Award!

So after 10 million years, I finally have a proper blog post! XD

Last October 26, ManikaManila held its annual Tiangge (which means "bazaar" in Filipino). It's not quite a convention yet, but we're getting there! This year, the event was sponsored by popular BJD clothing brand, Doll Hearts!

Me and some of my closest friends in the hobby were among the concessionaires. I sold mostly doll accessories like scarves, necklaces, headbands and books. The books were a hit! I managed to make a good profit, which was awesome, but what was even more awesome was that I won People's Choice for the Photography Contest! YAY!

Check out that fabulous logo and website by the equally fabulous Nix!

People's Choice Award, awwyis! Miette and her friends definitely worked their magic. 8D

Me and my booth. It's a littly messy, but homey! I was going for the shabby chic look. ^^

The event was intimate, but it's showing a lot of promise. The Philippine BJD community sure is growing fast. 8D I'm super proud of my community. Great job guys! For more photos of the event, click on ahead.
