Wishlist: nOir Natasha Ring

Things you might not know about me yet:

1. I like cute things
2. I like things that remind me of my heritage
3. I like things that are bright and colorful

This nOir Natasha ring is all of those things combined! With an additional bonus of a removable top doll! Didn’t you ever have one of those ballerina dolls hiding in a flower? And when you wind it up, the flower opens up to reveal a dancing ballerina? I used to love things like that – a thing concealing an even cuter thing. Combine it all, and you’ll understand why I am going nuts over this ring. But then again, that $225 can be spent so many ways on so many other more important “things”…and do I really need another costume jewelry piece in my ever-expanding closet?

I can go on and on in circles forever…the question, however, remains…to buy or not to buy?

Jeanne Beker Bratz Doll

Recently, at a preview of the new line of toys at Windsor Arms, I spotted something very interesting – a Jeanne Beker-inspired doll! A fan of Jeanne’s myself, I was wondering what the deal was with the Bratz Passion for Fashion doll, since apart from the hair, the doll didn’t really resemble Jeanne in the least. Well, apparently, it wasn’t supposed to. Jeanne Beker, who wrote the book titled Passion for Fashion - Careers in Style for the young fashion lovers, was approached by Bratz for a collaboration. The result? A fashion reporter doll, named Jeanne B – styled by Ms. Beker herself!

The doll comes complete with a copy of Jeanne Beker’s book, a press pass, camera, microphone and other fashion reporter essentials. And as for the looks, I was told that since most celebrity look-alike dolls tend to look creepy (completely agree!), Bratz decided to go in a different direction with this one. Not a Jenne Beker doll per se, but a Jeanne-inspired one instead. I think, it’s pretty amazing!

What about you? With Christmas approaching, would you get a Jeanne B doll for your little fashion lover? Let me know in the comments!

All Dolled Up

Love these dolls so much! I want them all! There’s Lanvin, Marc Jacobs, Givenchy, Gareth Pugh, Proenza Schouler…and more! If I had a daughter, I would definitely want her to have one of these Kouklitas (which seems like a Spanish-ified version of the Russian word for doll – Koukla). I can’t decide on my favorite here. They are all so cute! A little creepy too (they remind me of those 3D paintings by Phoebe from Friends, remember those?)…but still more cute than creepy! Which one is your fave?
