April 9, 2003 There is a post asking if there are any Jenny dolls with legitimate Lolita outfits. They say that they think they saw one wearing a "GothLoli styled outfit." Well, while I'm not completely familiar with the Jenny dolls of the past, I know for certain that Baby the Stars Shine bright had at least one collaboration with the doll brand. I have seen these dolls in two different color variations of the Sugar Bouquet print series. The last one I am including in this segment is a much newer version, which is a new collaboration with the brand Sanrio for the anniversary of the Little Twin Stars. However, because these are a Japanese brand, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there were many more lolita looking dolls just because, of course, Japan is where lolita and "kawaii" styled clothing originated, these just happen to be the two.

Originally I had hoped to be a lot more active here. I enjoyed writing and recording what I could find about the years past. Even if it’s just for myself to look back on and no other audience. Unfortunately due to stress, anxiety and enevitably depression, it became too much for me. When I was finally able to  pull myself out, I was so busy with social and family obligations, making the rounds after becoming engaged(oh yes! That also happened while I was away!), I had even less time for myself even now that I was feeling better. Well, as I’m sure you have noticed, most of the world has stopped in the wake of the covid 19 pandemic. Now we all seem to have even more time than we even know what to do with. I’m currently working only part time, waiting for the day it becomes so bad due to the total incompetence of our world leaders that I myself am either sick, or our entire city is forced to shut down. All of our local meets in the comm I moderate have been cancelled for the fore...
