This is the doll that I have transformed the most. Her hair was a lost cause so I rerooted it and I made her dress myself. It wasn’t intentional, but I love how she looks like Marilyn Monroe now. Let’s have a look at the restoration process:
1985 Barbie Magic Moves
Without a doubt, she’s one of my favorite Barbies EVER! Her face is gorgeous, her hair is soft and beautiful, her dress is stylish and versatile. I fell in love with this doll because she was part of a dear friend’s collection and I just had to get her for myself as well! It’s almost…
90s Barbie – flea market finds 17
I found this doll at the flea market, in very good condition. I don’t know what Barbie she is, but I love her blue eyes and red makeup! I made her top myself. It’s nothing special but in photo it doesn’t look too bad XD
1986 Dana – Barbie and the rockers, real dancing action
When I was little, I owned a Dee Dee rockstar from this series and I adored her! I hope I’ll be able to buy all the rockers one day, but they are really expensive. I was really lucky to find this Dana at a very special price from a vintage toy store that was closing…
1995 Phone fun Skipper – flea market finds 16
I love how cute Skipper looked in the early 90s! She’s one of my flea market finds but she was in rather good condition when I got her. I had a lot of fun styling her hair.
1985 Diva – Barbie and the rockers
I adore how iconic this Barbie series is! This doll is from 1985, and she looks so… 80s! I’d love to own all the Rockers in the series, but I doubt I’ll be able to find them all at a decent price (they have become really really expensive). I was able to purchase Diva for…
2010s Stacie doll – flea market finds 15
Even though I ADORE Barbie’s sisters (the 90s formation Skipper, Stacie, Kelly/Shelly) I had never owned a Stacie doll before finding this little one at the flea market. I am really proud of how I was able to clean her up! Here’s a little before/after:
1991 Birthday Surprise Barbie
I got this doll from eBay for €40, for a very specific reason! In 2021, this doll and I will both turn 30, and I want to unbox her on my birthday! She’s gorgeous, her face is incredibly sweet and her dress is EVERYTHING! I can’t wait to unbox her!
1985 Barbie Magic Moves – flea market finds 14
When I say that Barbie Magic Moves is one of my very favorite 80s Barbies, I am serious! This doll is one of my flea market finds. I adore how different this doll’s face is compared to my other Magic Moves Barbies. Her hair is very damaged, but I did my best to fix it…
1987 California Dream Barbie
I put this doll in my wishlist as soon as I started my new doll collection in 2018. I really like her outfit, very summer-y and colorful! I haven’t unboxed her yet as I’m running out of space in my apartment!
