New Wig Day!

After waiting for like...forever (a month really, but it felt like it), China Post finally decided to get it's act together and my package (10" Tibetan Mohair Wigs from Natrume on Etsy/DOA) arrived today! Yay!

I was really excited to try the new wigs (especially on Mori!), but...

OMG! IT'S EATING HER HEAD!
So well yes....the wig is...a tad big for her. Which I am really disappointed about, because the color looks EFFING AWESOME.

But anyway, Akimme (Shameless Plug: the link to her blog is on the side! Go check it out!) suggested I style it so that the hair is pulled back away from her face.

YAY IT WORKS!
I just brushed the top part to one side and pinned it up behind. And wow, it does really make a difference! She looks amazing <3 I am really happy about it actually :D

The Khaki wig was meant for Morning, but she pinched Mori's wig to try on as well. I think the red is a bit too somber for her though. I asked for some opinions on our BJD facebook group, and most people voted for the Khaki, which I guess makes her look younger.

Khaki vs. Dark Red

Here she is in her wig:

Morning knows she's gorgeous :)

I really adore my girls. They are so beautiful :)


P.S. Want to get one of these wigs? Natrume makes 10in" Tibetan Mohair Wigs for SD dolls in various colors (which you can buy directly from her Etsy: http://www.etsy.com/shop/natrume). Apparently, you can also request for other sizes/colors on DOA.

Introductions!

Surprise! My SD16 Megu arrived today :D Whee! I am so ecstatic! Here she is all wrapped up:


I had a little bit of trouble unpacking her. Thank goodness for not taking box opening videos. I seriously looked like a dumbass trying to figure out how to get the doll's box out of the cardboard box they use for shipping.

I got another surprise when I discovered that my ELUTS package also arrived at the same time. I had a minor panic attack though when I opened the packaged and saw that 1) Some of the items I ordered seemed to be missing and 2) There was a wig there that I didn't order.

However, after a good 10 mins of panicking, I opened the box for my Honey Delf and realized they had put the rest of the order items inside. And funny enough, they put the wig I had ordered for someone else inside the box too. So I guess the wig that I didn't order is the random wig that is suppose to come with my doll. Whew.

Speaking of my Honey Delf, here she is:

Bubblewrap Mummy!
Argh! She is too cute! I was planning on  selling her, since I have too many tinies already...but I just can't resist that expression!

I'm adorable, right?

She's definitely staying. Her name is Sumomo, and she is a Honey Delf Choux. I really like the default faceup I got with her! Everytime I look at her I just want to go "awwww~"...

My two new arrivals together:

Morning and Sumomo.
Gosh, Sumomo makes such cuuuuute poses!

Oh right! I forgot to introduce her properly! This is Morning, my SD16 Megu :D


She is absolutely stunning, and photographs like a dream.

About Tomoki

Name: Hanahime Tomoki
Gender: Male
Age: Approx 180 years old
Race: Elf
Faction: Hana no Miya

Tomoki is the very cheeky twin brother of Momoki. He is very carefree and always getting into scrapes. Although he often gets into trouble, Momoki is usually there to bail him out and smooth things over. As a result, Tomoki is extremely indulgent towards his twin sister.

Although Tomoki has a good heart, and often tries to help others, he often makes mistakes that result in disastrous consequences. Tomoki is free-spirited and loves to try new things. He is seldom apart from his twin sister Momoki, who is the only person he allows to order him around.

Despite them being from rival factions, Tomoki has a crush on Morning's daughter Asako.

Like his twin sister, Tomoki's loyalty is to the Hana no Miya.

The secret to winning!

Just a bit of randomness to brighten everyone's day. ^^

Hehe, look what I found Momo~!
Momo wants! *steals*
Yay~! Sugar belongs to Momo now!
Huuhuu~ No more sugar for Tomo T^T *cries*

Awww, don't cry Tomo! Momo will give you hug~!
Sayang~ *hughug*
Yay! Tomo loves Momo! <3 *hugs back*

Momo knows the secret to winning every battle.
Score: Momo 1 - Tomo 0


Starring: Momoki (Left) & Tomoki (Right)

NEW ARRIVAL ALERT!

I have been a little too sick to make any updates...however...I really have to introduce my new addition~!


This is Morianna :) I got her like this, except she was naked and had light green eyes. When I took these pics, I had already changed her eyes to a pair of blind grey 14mm eyes from ELUTS and thrown some of the only SD clothes I had lying around on her. You can't tell, but she has no pants :( I used a hairband to make her a makeshift skirt.

Just a little gripe, but I seriously hated the black wig she came with. The wig itself is gorgeous, but on her...it makes her forehead look massive (as seen in above pic). I don't like the way her faceup photographs...but it looks amazing when you see it in person.

In any case, the poor dear got detained down at the Immigration and Checkpoint offices, because I didn't pay taxes, so I had to go bail her out. So she doesn't look particularly happy, as you can see. Souldoll Agnetha is one of my grail dolls, and they've discontinued her, so I was really really happy to find one on ebay (in white skin no less!). She came all the way from Miriam Jones in New Jersey, USA. Miriam told me she was gorgeous and I would love her...and I certainly do.

I was planning to give her a japanese name, like the rest of my clan, but somehow nothing seemed to suit her. Honestly, when I first laid eyes on her, the name that popped into my head was "Morgana". I found that name rather cliche...not one of my faves, I'll admit. In the end we settled on Morianna. A compromise for us both I guess. It's a pretty name, isn't it?

I did go down to Alice88 and give her a slight makeover though (since I was taking Shiyuri down to be re-stringed).

The result?


Oh my gosh

She is such a complete DIVA. Just gorgeous.

I really love this pose!

Feel like giving her a beauty spot, lol.

I love this photo, and the way the light shines on her hair.
She really does look completely different! She completes me, she really does.

Also, on another exciting note, her sister (Volks SD16 Megu) will most likely arrive next week! Yay!
