Lea's Outfit of the Day Featuring All Dolled Up Doll Clothes

So we've had Lea since around our birthday in February - 

but we've really only taken pics of her in three outfits.

So yeah - we suck.

We have posted these pics on Instagram, 

but we want to start a sort of Instagram round-up 

here on the blog so you can see the pics all together 

and also get more information about them.

(It's amazing - I've had this vest and skirt ^^^ forever 

and never really thought of putting them together. Derp.)

Lea's outfit consists of:

A vest - custom order from All Dolled Up Doll Clothes

And a skirt - custom order from All Dolled Up Doll Clothes

A white slip from Royal Doll Boutique on Etsy

(https://www.etsy.com/shop/RoyalDollBoutique)

and

A headband from Suzy M Studio on Etsy

(https://www.etsy.com/shop/suzymstudio)

All Dolled Up Doll Clothes doesn't do custom orders anymore, as far as we know.

What she does offer is patterns - lots and lots of wonderful patterns - for those of you who sew.

So if you want a vest like this one, go here for the pattern:

Sarah's Vest

The website also features a list of people who make clothing from the patterns:

http://www.alldolledup-dollclothes.com/made-to-order.html

So they may be offering some items for sale in their shops, but you can also message them and ask if they will do a custom order for you of item(s) from the All Dolled Up patterns.

I bet a lot of them will be willing to create stuff from the patterns for you!!!

___________

As far as camera notes - the above pics were taken with a ye olde Canon Rebel with a 50mm lens.

This allows me to blur out the background.

It gives the pics a small area of focus and makes them kind of dreamy-looking.

Jfyi.

Also, they were taken inside my light box thingy. :-)

Which I have posted about before here:

...in case you want to learn more about it. ;-)

And then the pics are heavily edited by moi.

Because I edit the crap out of my pics.

But the colors are generally true to life. :-)

I increase the sharpness, the brightness, the contrast, the saturation, and the structure settings - but not to the point of weirdness, haha.

Just so everything is more vibrant. :-)

Kanani's New Party Dress!

Yep. We ordered a new party dress for Kanani from All Dolled Up Doll Clothes. The comment on our post on the AG version that the Hawaiian Kanani is bizarrely wearing velvet got us thinking. And then Penny's sister suggested a classic sarong dress instead, made of lighter fabric. So we asked Terrie if she could make us one. And that turned into three because we liked three of the fabrics! Haha.

Here are Maple, Kanani, and Alice modeling them for us. It is the "Moonlight in Maui" dress on the "It's a Girl's World" page on the ADUDC website in case you want one (or three) for yourself. ;-)

Maple sports the white and black version; Kanani sparkles in the blue and green dress; and Alice looks stunning in the yellow and black frock. These girls are ready for a party! Bring on the luau music!

Thanks Terrie!

Can you believe Kanani is only here for 67 more days? Where does the time go?

Slideshow!
