Alyrenee's Copious Spare Time

Surprise another Elyse!  But the biggest surprise was that I actually liked her. I even got her signed by Jason Wu.  I am a little confused by this reaction since I usually go on and on about how I don't do gowns. So yeah.  She's coming home and might actually stay on the shelf.  The centerpiece was Vanessa 1.0 with a peach floofy dress and possibly Night Warrior screening and was designed by Jessy Ayala. I passed my opportunity on to another table mate.  Sorry Vanessa. You are not for me. I was a little disappointed that Jason did not design the centerpiece too.  Oh well. NEXT YEAR IN DALLAS!

Item # 82122  Paris Runway Giselle Diefendorf™ Centerpiece Doll The 2019 Integrity Toys  Convention :  Live From Fashion Week W Club Luncheon Exclusive Edition Size: 700 Dolls Head Sculpt: Giselle Diefendorf Body Type: NU. Face Foot Sculpt:   High Heel Skin Tone: Cream Hair Color: Silver With Raven Ponytail Wrap Eyelashes: Yes Quickswitch: No Nu Face Luncheon!  Giselle with a really fun outfit inspired by Balmain. FYI, the black hair streak is not rooted...just wrapped around the ponytail but it is very well rooted for a ponytail doll.  I bought it to steal the fashion for Anika. Also it had nice accessories and even a PURSE.  I expect there will be some extras for club lottery possibilities.  Item # 82123 NYFW Karolin Stone™ Giveaway Doll The 2019 Integrity Toys  Convention : Live From Fashion Week W Club Luncheon Exclusive Edition Size: 700 Dolls Head Sculpt: Karolin Stone Body Typ...

Well friends. Poppy Luncheon happened.  Despite the mighty return of the corn muffin, I was a bit disappointed with the dolls.  I am sure others were thrilled but I was not feeling the color variations from the Bon Bon collection.  I did not order either of those dolls the first time they came around and was not going to be swayed this time either.  I would have been more interested if the new takes had been on the looks from the first year...not one from two years back.  Le sigh.  The dolls are very pretty but just not my thing.  Thankfully the style lab is everything.  So because I have resisted all but one doll (Nadja...who even still I have not completely decided to keep her), I went back and bought Plum Powers and I am feeling pretty chuffed about it.  I immediately got the jolt of happy dolly adrenalin and when I brought her upstairs to look at it, I was loving everything about her.  So there's that... Then later at the Ba...

The fashion looks red in the photos but in reality it is totally different...like more of a fuschia or magenta. I am in love with the jewelry.  I bought her and will be selling the doll sans jewels.  She's is lovely but not my thing.  Item # 91472 Vivid Paradise Tatyana Alexandrova ™  Giveaway Doll The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Edition Size: 700 Dolls Head Sculpt: Tatyana 2.0 Body Type: FR Foot Sculpt:   High Heel  Skin Tone: Sunkissed...

Well thank goodness I pre-ordered this whole thing.  I won't keep it all...but more than I expected to keep that is for sure.  The whole thing is adorable and the packaging is soooooooo cute.  I love it. Kicky in Lime Time!   Well I'm glad I had already sold Big Eyes because I like this one better.  Adorable outfit too. Groovy in Beauty Blossoms! I love these both as well...love the print on the dress and the peachy blonde pigtails similar to Sunny Slickers in style.  Keen in Sparkle Spotlight! Cute but neither are for me.  I will be selling or trading these. Cool in Coco Puffs! The ash blonde is gorgeous and I love this outfit.  I doubt I will keep the doll but she is stunning. The outfit is definitely staying. Fab in Cherry Pop! Love this outfit...I have the Positively Plaid version from the Swingin' London Collection.  Far Out in Styled Wild! Love both of them.  This dress and ear...

Well, hello there. I've been here since Wednesday afternoon and I am already dog tired from room sales and running around the hotel.  But enough complaining because dolls are afoot... Item # 91467 Fresh Perspective Baroness Agnes Von Weiss ™ Welcome Doll The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Edition Size: 700 Head Sculpt: Agnes Von Weiss Body Type: FR Foot Sculpt:   High Heel Skin Tone: Hungarian  Hair Color: Caramel Blonde Eyelashes: Yes Quickswitch: No The Welcome doll was Agnes.  She is cute but I'm not in love. The streaky silver brocade of the bandeau top is repeated in the collection Eugenia dress.  The same style in black was also used in the OOAK Tulabelle so I wonder if the black version will appear in the dolls for tonight's dinner.  Hmmmm.  I do really like her accessories though.  Item # 91468 English Rose Eugenia Perrin-Frost™ Dressed Doll ...

I made this little bingo card to entertain myself...it would also make an excellent drinking game. I leave on Wednesday.  I have made an epic amount of things to sell and really hope I can do just that.  I luckily have Fall Break from the university on Monday and Tuesday so that I can cram in last minute preparations (dye hair, paint nails, pack clothes, clean house, make more crap, etc). I will do my best to report back everyday here on ye olde blog. 

New dolls...with a purchase deadline one flippin' week before convention.  Oye.  As much as I really love Nadja, I had to resist due to the timing of this offering.  I am sure I am not alone on this.  So I am taking a gamble.  There will be a Nadja in the collection next week at the convention with a similar price tag.  While I like this look for Nadja and love the skin tone...I am holding out for a stunner at convention.  If I am wrong, I can always add myself to the wait list for this one and hope to snag her later.  Erin does nothing for me.  The smokey vinyl coat is kind of neat but not a must have.
