My Doll Haven: Victoire Roux

Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

She's Here and She's Gorgeous!

I adore those blue eyes and ruby red lips with her black hair . . . actually there's not a darn thing about this doll to dislike, she's absolutely adorable!

Hopefully, I will find some time later today to debox her and have a little "play".

I trust your week is begining in good way too. :)

My Girl is on Her Way

Remember this post? Well news arrived via email this morning, to say she is finally on her way. YAY! Hopefully USPS doesn't ship her all the way around the States, before putting her on a plane to me!

Now while I am here, another lovely lady caught my eye recently . . . named Gardens of Versailles, this gorgeous version of Poppy Parker was much too hard to resist. I think she will also be the perfect dolly companion to take with me to Paris!

Due in October, she is my first Poppy in this lovely sunkissed skintone. Hopefully she doesn't arrive the same time as my Midnight Decadence, which is due in the northern hemisphere's fall (autumn).

Well that's it from me this week, hope you are all having fun with your dolls. I'm off to read some blogs.

Finally Shaken the Bug

Well after a good fortnight of sneezing, coughing, spitting and blowing, taking all the yucky stuff prescribed by "the doc" and generally feeling like s**t, I think I have finally shaken the bug.

Today is the first time for weeks that I actually feel reasonably "normal". I have been reading your blogs, but just couldn't think clearly enough to leave comments, so I hope you'll forgive me.

Some news arrived via email this morning, which means the gift hubby was purchasing for me won't arrive at dealers until 8th July, and I probably won't receive her until August, but I think this gorgeous gal will be worth the wait.

She is Victoire Roux ~ Lunch at 21 from Integrity Toys East 59th range of dolls and I simply felt I had to own her, however, I didn't have any dolly budget set aside for her . . . thank heavens hubby stepped up to the plate. She comes with two sets of shoes (red and blue), normal and gloved hands as well as handbag and jewelry.

Well that's about it for today. I hope you are all enjoying your weekend!

Big hugs and thanks to all those who have stopped by. :)
