a Blythe a day: All Gold in One

... in the Summer of 2002 a friend gave me a copy of Gina Garan's book "This Is Blythe" ... one look at her dolls and I was hooked, so in September I bought my very first Blythe: a "All Gold in One" and I named her BLEETHEUX.

My second doll was a "Bohemian Beats" and I named her HORTENSIA, an old-fashioned latin name which I just love, and up to now she is probably still my favorite girl!

Over the years I bought more dolls and I now have 14 Blythes: each one has been named, they have very defined personalities and they have traveled with me quite extensively, in their very stylish personalised wardrobes.

For quite sometime I have not paid much attention to my dolls, but now I'm again very attracted to them, so I've decided that I will post a different picture of one girl every day.

Is that a BlyPod?

BLEETHEUX loves music, while Raoul looks confused... as always!

"Oranginal"

I know I said that I did not like BLEETHEUX original make-up: too orange, too tacky, too spooky, in fact I later cleaned her with solvent (and I made a mess :( ...poor girl!)

but in this picture she reminds me of the Orangina drink.

this is going to be Bleetheux's week!

As I mentioned in the very first post, BLEETHEAUX was my first Blythe doll: back in the Fall of 2002 she was very much "the girl about town", so I've decided that this week she's going to be the star in all posts.

In this photo she's enjoying a junk boat trip, the best way to spend a Sunday in Hong Kong.

Ohh, how do we miss that...

At the beach

My very first Blythe doll - a "All Gold In One" named BLEETHEUX - in her very fist photo shoot in South Bay Beach in Hong Kong, September 2002.

Although I have a soft spot for her because she was my first one, and I always thought that she was a cute teen~girl, in all honesty I never liked her corse hair which is impossible to style, and I hated her tacky make-up ... I mean, really ... who would wear saffron yellow eye-shadow and bright fushia lipstick?!?
