Item # PP133 Free Spirit Poppy Parker™ 2018 IFDC IT Direct Exclusive Doll* OHHHHH!  I love her. So cute. I love the jeans especially and the new hand sculpts are very cool. I like the natural makeup with the streaks in the hair as well. I am sure competition to get her will be cutthroat. There are three more to come...weeee!

Poppy Parker City Sweetheart

I just returned from NYC seeing plays for my day job (occasionally theatre can be glamorous...mostly it is actor armpit sweat and stupid long hours). I spent Wednesday morning shopping for fabric in the garment district and felt excited and overwhelmed by the sparkles and luxury of the stores (mood, pacific trimmings, hai fabrics, and B&J). So much yumminess. As I ate a banana in Bryant Park, I tried to imagine our small town girl turned model out and about in 1960s New York City....it was easy to imagine Poppy in crisp summer dress sipping a coffee in the opposite bistro chair. David Buttry has delivered another cute and shockingly compact collection. Unlike last year’s Swinging London collection which came in two waves, City Sweetheart will only have one wave. It does include the, w club upgrade Soda Pop Doll, the adorable Italian Convention dolls (which I would kill to get the pink haired Ciao doll), and the upcoming two Poppy W Club exclusives. The edition sizes are healthier

So I was lucky enough to snag this girl in a recent W Club Lottery. I love the high waist jeans. I sadly missed out on Misaki Candy Cutie in a price that I could afford. Boo. I am now trying to hunt down an ITBE Zolt or Zing from the 2014 Gloss Convention to reroot in a candy color to stand in her place. I might reroot this Misaki as well in a mint color. We shall see. Designer Mark Tinkey shared inspiration sketches of recent Misaki designs on his doll instagram .
