My Favorite Dolls - The Story of My Dolls

The most carefree time of life is childhood, and the most beloved sphere of childhood is games and toys. Life goes on, children grow up and begin to play adult games. Toys also change, improve and .. grow with people.

The history of my dolls.

During my childhood, there was that alarming time when american barbie dolls they were just beginning their defile of conquering the world, and in the domestic sale one could find only low-quality Chinese fakes. My parents pampered me buying a variety of toys, but I still wanted that cherished, desired dream - a Barbie doll, and with it Ken, and little adorable ponies from the cartoon "My Little Pony", and the adored Disney red-haired Mermaid with a green tail, and the inimitable Prince Eric, who must definitely find her and love her ..

Time passed, and the heroes of your favorite cartoons were etched into the memory for a long time, and it was not possible to see them, so to speak, live, and it was not possible to touch them. A friend advised - “buy a special Barbie album, collect 100 gum stickers, fill out the album and send it to the specified address, to America. It says that every girl who sends an album with stickers is given a Barbie doll. " With the album, I somehow did not work out - without stickers it was somehow not attractive, and even, as luck would have it, my mother flatly refused to buy gum. And I had no choice but to simply ... grow up, do important things and forget about my dream.

And so I grew up, received a specialty and achieved many goals in life, but sometimes, as if I felt that I still lacked something, something cloudless and serene, bright and full of bright hopes ... And then I realized that I grew up - but the dream remained.

For a while, I left these thoughts again, in life there were adults, important things - study, family, work, and there was no time for silly fantasies. But suddenly, at one fine moment, I realized that I was missing something in this cycle, something important enough, perhaps more important than all this fuss. And I decided for myself - why not stop for a minute in the end and make my long-standing dream come true? I don’t depend on my dad anymore, and I don’t have to beg for money from a kiosk with theatrical tears from my mother, or hide a bag of instant Yupi bought in the same place instead of a school breakfast in my sleeve, and took decisive action. This is how one of the embodied dreams of childhood appeared - a real American one (fortunately, they were already in abundance), a tanned blonde beauty, a princess - Barbie.

My favorite dolls are Angelica.

Actually, when I received it, she was by no means a princess, she was wearing a modern beach suit, sunglasses and a glass of cocktail in her hands. Barbie was stunning, but I wanted her to become a princess, and without hesitation, I bought her a golden ball gown.
Then, taking a good look at my favorite doll, I found in it a resemblance to Angelica from the book of Anne and Serge Golon, and then, a little later, I thought that she was probably alone alone, and we certainly needed a girlfriend.

My favorite dolls are Delancey.

I decided to stop my choice on a brunette Barbie (for a change), and then I suddenly found out about the appearance on the sale of new, modern dolls Mai Sin. Taking a look at the latest episode of Mai Xing, I was just taken by her beauty. These were dolls called "Stage Stars", and each was in a chic package, in an ultra-fashionable stage dress with many accessories, and a statuette of music awards in her hands. Therefore, the beautiful Delancey (I also really liked the name), did not hesitate to appear in my house.It was a gorgeous brunette with green eyes, pink capricious lips and a mole on her cheek. Her stunning, stage outfits were beautiful and her hair was twice as thick as Barbie's, silky and shiny, almost natural. Delance took a place of honor next to the blonde Barbie, and then I thought for the first time - it's not at all surprising that men can like not one, but two women at the same time, because they are so different, so beautiful and individual ...

Bratz dolls.

Time passed, Angelica and Delancey were great friends together, conscientiously decorated the interior, and sometimes carefully combed and changed clothes for greater beauty. And just at that moment I saw dolls of a completely unusual, unique type, which I didn’t like at first, but then caused just a storm of delight - they were Bratz's friends!

Compared to the standard Barbie, they had a very large head, but I realized that I had never seen more interesting dolls. After all, a doll does not have to be an exact copy of a person, in childhood it is the doll's head and hair that attracts the child most of all, and Bratz had this in abundance - hair below the knee, beautiful oriental eyes, childishly plump, capricious lips and a sly expression on his face? ... And their outfits could compete with the most beautiful clothes for Barbie: miniature, almost jewelry work, like real ones, jeans, tops and T-shirts, chic lacquer jackets with zippers and high boots - everything is so realistic that it was hard to believe that it was made especially for dolls. I suddenly thought that I was very lucky that I can now calmly admire all this splendor - after all, in my childhood there was nothing like this, and I acquired beauty Bratz from a rather rare, eastern series - Djinn's Magic, Meighan.

Doll princess.

And then, after a while, I wanted to return from modernity to history, and I had just a stunning beauty, unique doll princess Disney. This happened after a nostalgic viewing of one of the cartoons of his youth - Disney Princesses. She was just a real princess - the beautiful Rapunzel with hair exceeding the length of all reason, in a charming, sky-blue dress with pearl trim, made by hand, and white gloves. Well, how could you safely walk past such a stunning beauty? The gaze wandered over the Disney princess dolls - fell either on the Little Mermaid or on Snow White, but the gorgeous Rapunzel overshadowed literally everyone with her beauty. I carefully brought it home and put it on the piano. Her height was about 33 cm, and she was not at all like the previous Barbies. And then, suddenly, I realized that I was slowly gathering a whole collection of different, best and most beautiful dolls, and at that moment again, for some reason, I thought about men.

Liv dolls.

And this is what these reflections have led me to. Quite by accident, in the online store, I suddenly saw handsome Jake from the latest collection of popular modern dolls Liv ... The image of Jake decided his whole future destiny. It was immediately ordered by me, and now, I am looking forward to the package. Jake is a handsome, articulated young man, with 14 movable support points, 32 centimeters in height, with lively, shiny eyes made of glass, just like a person's.

He looks sad and at the same time tender, he is modern, but it is worth dressing him in a prince's costume - and he will perfectly cope with this role. In general, such a handsome man just matched my gorgeous Disney princess Rapunzel, or maybe Angelica - Barbie? I think he will choose himself, but I just have to admire with pleasure the dream of my childhood that has been embodied a hundredfold, and from the bottom of my heart thank the designers-manufacturers for creating such beautiful, unique, diverse dolls, which are now admired not only by children all over the world. , but also simply those who want to have such beauty in their home, adult collectors.
