New Video with Four New Outfits

Hola! We hope everyone had a nice weekend. Sorry for the slowness with posting. It's a busy time of the year for various reasons. But here we are again with another Youtube video/ musical slideshow.

Also we wanted to remind you that today and tomorrow are the last days to vote in our April Photo Contest. Click the linky to look at the photos and read the instructions for voting. We appreciate your participation!

So for our video today we took pictures of Mina, Sun Ji, and Ginny in four outfits. The shops are labeled in the video but we listed them here as well for ease of use.

In the first set, Mina's hat was made by Etsy seller Rayn but sold through Doll Closet. Her tank top is from Sew Urban Designs, and her skirt is from 123 Mulberry Street. Sun Ji's outfit is from The Dolly Stand. In the second set, Sun Ji is wearing a white fuzzy coat from All Dolled Up Doll Clothes, and a skirt from Sew Urban Designs. Ginny's outfit is from 123 Mulberry Street.

Any questions? Let us know!

Oh and don't forget this Thursday, April 28th is the last day to enter our Three March/April Giveaways to get a chance to win one of three fantastic dresses! Click the linky to read more.

The Purple Post

We've taken a lot of photos over the past few months that we haven't actually posted yet. So things might seem a bit random for a little while as we attempt to process those images and post about them. ;-)

For today's post we have three "purple" items-- yes we had a theme for this photo shoot. Haha. And you can tell we took the pictures in December because we had holiday decor in there. :-)

From left to right you see Cassie modeling Pippaloo's purple belted dress, Ginny wearing Melody Valerie's Literary Travels dress, and Lira sporting Liberty Jane's Sofia. We bought the Pippaloo dress when she first opened her Etsy shop (awhile ago). The Literary Travels dress is from the MVC Fall 2010 line. And Sofia appeared in the LJ Fall 2010 collection. As you can tell, we are sort of "behind" in taking pictures and posting things. ;-)

First here is a general shot of the three girls together....

And then Lira and her slideshow...

Ginny and her slideshow...

And Cassie and her slideshow...

Stay tuned for more posts soon!

Stassy Dodge Harry Potter Scarves and More!

Sup! Wow, it's been almost a week since I last posted. Sorry about that. Homework got in the way of blogging fun.

Today we have four dolls showing you the four scarves we bought from Etsy seller StassyDodge that coordinate with the Harry Potter Hogwarts houses. A great way to make a simple costume for Halloween! Ziva is wearing the gold and red of the Gryffindor house; Kit is wearing the blue and bronze of the Ravenclaw house; Ginny is wearing the yellow and black of the Hufflepuff house; and Sun Ji is wearing the green and silver of the Slytherin house.

You can commission these scarves for your own dolls via the Etsy shop and you can also look at Stassy Dodge's blog for more pictures of things available: Designer Clothes by Stassy Dodge.

What else are the girls wearing for us today? Ziva is wearing a grey-mottled tunic top, brown belt, and dark blue leggings handmade by Terrie at All Dolled Up Doll Clothing. Her boots are from Liberty Jane.

Kit is wearing an outfit from Etsy seller 123MulberryStreet which included the striped blue and grey tunic top and denim-tone leggings. Her pink shoes are from AG.

Ginny is modeling an outfit we special-ordered from Dynamite Threads as part of a mix-and-match set. The green and cream peasant blouse and green pleated skirt are part of this creative set. The socks and boots are from Liberty Jane.

And last but not least, Sun Ji is again wearing Liberty Jane duds-- the long-sleeve top from Shinjuku Starlet and one of the custom pairs of grey jeans. Her Halloween-themed sparkly pumpkin-accented sandals are from Etsy seller BetsyStyle.

Thanks for visiting The Doll Wardrobe-- Coming up are more Halloween costumes and fun dolly duds!!

Dolly Stand Halloween Pinafore and Dress

Yola! Today we have a fun Halloween-themed pinafore and dress from Etsy seller The Dolly Stand to show you. We love the little mice hiding behind the pumpkins on the pinafore and the combination of orange and black for the fabrics. The ensemble is being modeled by Ginny Sartorius (one of our Kirsten dolls)-- isn't her hair gorgeous?!-- sister of Lira Sartorius (our Lanie doll).

Ginny is standing in front of the bed we showed you yesterday with a Happy Halloween card by her side. In addition she is wearing orange and white polka dot sandals from Etsy seller Betsy Style that go perfectly with the dress.

And you may think we must almost be done with our Halloween photos... but we aren't... more costumes and fun are around the corner! Stay tuned!

Another Liberty Jane Denim Mix and Match

Well, if you are like us, you are currently drooling over the new Liberty Jane outfits and wishing they would magically appear on your doorstep in the next five minutes. But alas, this is not possible... so we must be satisfied with the LJC we already have. :)

Today we take three pieces of custom denim- the black jacket, a pair of black jeans, and a blue skirt- and mix and match them with some of our other LJC items. I am wearing the "Copy Cat" tank top over a purple tank top, paired with the blue denim skirt. Since it is purple-ish, has stripes, and involves the "Cat" tank top-- I am naming this outfit "Cheshire Cat." Meanwhile Ginny is wearing the black jacket and jeans with the twinkly starlight tank top. She has named this outfit "Starry, Starry Night." So basically these two outfits are derived from last week's outfits for this version of our LJC Mix and Match game.

Here we are discussing which outfit is better...
"Starry, Starry Night" or "Cheshire Cat".....

Liberty Jane Denim Mix and Match

A Liberty Jane Monday! Huzzah!

We are really, really, really excited about Liberty Jane Clothing this week. The ValenSpring contest ended yesterday, so we will hear about those winners soon enough. I just love it when Cinnamon takes a drawing and makes it into a real outfit. It is amazing! And the LJ newsletter said that the new Spring line should launch on Friday evening- this Friday! March 19th! Woohoo! And guess what? Cinnamon gave her Newsletter readers some info on an upcoming "International Collection".... which may be renamed later.....hopefully LJ doesn't mind me showing some of that info here....

"The International Collection, Places & Styles, Sneak Peak

Over time, we'll develop this list further, and go much deeper into each category, but for now, we'll roll out at least one outfit in each of four categories:

Malibu Libby - The southern california beach attire is the most pervasive influence on American Teen clothing as 'sold' by Justice, Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister, and American Eagle. It's the closest visually to what Liberty Jane has been doing for the last two years. But there's still more to show. Outfits will reflect super contemporary L.A. style.

Outback Libby - The Gold Coast is Australia's hot fashion zone. Outfits are uniquely Aussie, with hints of victorian outback ruggedness.

Tokyo Libby - Harajuku is the street fashion of Tokyo's Harajuku station area. A Japanese twist on American Punk Rock, the style features dress up and fun girlie styles.

Euro Libby - From Russia to London, European styles vary widely and are really totally unique for each region, but Euro Libby will focus on bringing out the most interesting and unique elements."

Don't these sound fantastic?!?!? We especially love Japanese street fashion, like Harajuku trends, such as the various forms of "Lolita" fashion. And of course, punk and steampunk (neo-Victorian) fashions are things for which we love to shop. But finding doll clothing like that is...well, let's just say "difficult." So these new LJ ideas sound great to us!

Okay, back to this post and some pictures...I am so easily distracted by fashion news.... Today Kirsten and Ginny are doing a Mix and Match with pieces from last week's Kirsten outfit and some more of the new custom denim pieces. In addition you will see a red tee shirt that we recently purchased from the LJ online store, which is still available for $10.00.

So here is the 411... Kirsten is wearing the green military jacket again, with a white tank top and a custom-made blue denim skirt. On her footsies are tan sneakers from Liberty Jane's online shop. Kirsten's necklace is one of Penny's, given to her by her sister. Ginny is wearing the red tee with gathered sleeves and a pair of the custom-made black jeans. Her shoes are just normal silver ballet flats from AG, and her necklace is a shiny human bracelet. (It's the thing making light spots on her chin- oops!)

Enjoy the pictures!

Tomorrow we are going to try to make another Liberty Jane post with some more of the custom denim items.... so stay tuned readers!

Meet Kirsten...and Kirsten???

Are you seeing double??? Sort of!

When Kirsten's archival was announced last year we bought two Kirstens for ourselves (and one for a possible Doll Wardrobe promotional giveaway). Why did we do such a silly thing like buying two of the same doll?!? Well, you know those fancy loopy-braid-things that Kirsten wears on her head? Penny was pretty sure once she took them out she'd never be able to get them back in quite right. She is not very good with braids and especially not fancy loop-braid-things. So we bought one Kirsten to remain Kirsten with her braids permanently in place, and the other Kirsten was bought to get a new name and be allowed to let her braids out. We are a little bizarre...

So there will be pioneer-girl Kirsten Larson... and Ginny Sartorius, Lira's sister. Ginny is short for Virginia, which we were thinking about using for Connie. So we are resurrecting it, but only as Ginny because we prefer Ginny. ;P

So what's going on in our photos today???... Kirsten Larson can be seen on the left side wearing her Meet Outfit duds, and Ginny Sartorius is on the right side also wearing a pioneer dress as a tribute to her previous existence as Kirsten 2.0.

This dress and plaid scarf is fantastic and was purchased from The Dollies' Dressmaker. It is in the same style as Kirsten's Swedish Dirndl, which we commissioned two handmade versions of from Terristouch, and you can see our post about them here.

Check out The DD website by clicking here. Ever since Kirsten was archived, The DD has been making Kirsten clothing left and right. But they have also been selling it left and right, so there are currently only three types of dresses in the shop for Kirsten. But as I said before, Etsy and Ebay sellers are still creating new Kirsten dresses every week! So there is always something creative right around the corner for Kirsten.

Well, without further ado....here are Kirsten and Ginny- Enjoy!
