Vintage 8 inch doll Clothes

On recent doll hunting trips I have been
finding a lot of vintage items.

During the 1950's there were many 8 inch dolls 
toy shelves. You could find Ginny from Vogue,
Ginger from Cosmopolitan, Pam from PMA,
Alexander-kins, Lollipop from Virga and most
likely a host of others.

This post will be about some of the clothes
I have found for the Vintage 8 inch doll.

My most recent acquisition was found
at the Thrift Store.

This outfit was found in the round box marked 
American Cellubox Corp

These were the items that were in the box. 
The red dress was the only piece labeled. 
"A Prissy Costume"
Trademark of Chello Corporation 

The next outfits I picked up at a Garage Sale. 

This is an outfit for the Ginger Doll by 
Cosmopolitan
No label or tag 

Another with no label or tag

This dress has a label marked Vogue Dolls. 
Most likely for Ginny.

I now have to go look and see where my childhood Ginger Doll is.
She would look great in the red outfit for Christmas.

Hasbro produced 36 different shoes, 
6 different collections with 6 different pairs in

Thought they would be good as a display piece.

A Monster In Bratz Clothing

Presently there are not a lot of extra
clothing choices for The Monster High Dolls.
Sometimes to get a new outfit (especially if
you don't sew like me) is to buy another MH doll
in a different series. 
I thought about it.  Why not try some of
the Bratz clothes on the Monster High Dolls. 
Here we have Cleo looking for a dress for 
the MH Holiday Bash. 
She asked her friend Laura to come help 
her pick one out.
They went to a new store in town called 3B's
(Bratz Better Buy) 
First Cleo tried on a Punk Black Dress

Then a short silver one. 
How about this green number? 

or this red one? 
Last she tried on this Silver gown. 
Cleo couldn't decide, so she took them
all to put in her closet. She will decide
what to wear when the time comes.

If you want more clothes for your 
Monster High Dolls.  Go to a local
flea market, Thrift store or yard sale and look for some
Bratz Clothing.  

Cleo is going to need some new shoes? 
Any ideas?

Another Stardoll

I purchased another Stardoll at 
Toy's R Us when I went to meet my
cousin for lunch last week. 
Went to the Toy's R Us by me
yesterday and there were none 
to be found.
Happy that I picked up the Stardolls
