sorry for the blurry image... here's the little pocket for the tooth fairy to leave the cash monies for diego :) blogged
At BJDC this year one of my goals was to find an outfit for my girl Kuroi. When I sold my last MSD girl I sold just about everything girly along with her so this girl dropped into my house and was like :(
So a chunk of money and two vendors later, new full outfit! Super cute Cheerydoll set I'd eyeballed before was on sale and that much more afordable, and then the dollheart shoes I eyeballed and wanted for years! just sitting there on Doll Peddlars table. It was kismet and then they totally just went with the ensemble.
