Barbie as George Washington

Barbie as George Washington is for me one of the craziest Barbie dolls ever created. Originally she was made as exclusive doll for the US Toy Chain FAO Schwarz and sold there in 1997. I don’t know the exact retail price but I estimate that she was not cheap. Anyways, I always liked this crazy doll and I bought her several months ago. She’s inspired by the 18th century fashion and style. I like especially the pink coat and the black hat of a military uniform.  To mention here is also that she is the only Barbie doll to wear knee breeches and I know a lot of Barbie dolls.

Hope you enjoy the pics 🙂

Holiday Treasures Barbie – the trio

I’m proud to present you my collection of Holiday Treasure Barbie dolls. The were made in 1999,2000 and 2001.

The one with the blue dress is from 2001. She’s the last one from the series and she was a Collector’s Club Exclusive back then. I think you hardly can see it but the glitter on her white skirt sparkles and creates a very state occasion.

The one with red and gold dress is from 1999. She was the first one in this series. I really like her hairdo.

The one with the red and green dress is from 2000. She has  gold ornaments on her dress.

Festival Barbie

In the last weeks I found one of the Festival Barbies produced for the 35th Anniversary of Barbie in the year 1994. I can’t say how lucky I feel to own one of them. For me she is a typical representant of the early 1990s with her hair, her dress and the whole aura.

This post was one of the first ones I ever wrote without having any idea how blogging works. I update my whole blog at the moment and found some nice posts. That’s why I currently update my whole blog a bit. It’s funny to read what I wrote here over ten years ago, never realized that this should be updated every now and then.
