First Silkstone of 2017 Coming Soon
It looks like these images are up on the Barbie Collection website so I will share them here too. The first Silkstone of 2017 will be available tomorrow!! While I am not a fan of this articulated body, I still love the look of this first offering.
I find it very interesting that these images are available but no news on the Barbie Fan Club for 2017 is up and available yet. Word is 03/31/2017. Let’s just say, I will believe it when I see it. In the mean time, there are images and a price point for this silkstone to mull over.
Black & White Tweed Suit Barbie® Doll
Gold Label
Designer:Robert Best
Release Date: 03/27/2017 ( release doesn’t always mean available people…just sayin’)
Price: $75.00
Love the redhead! Love the suit and Hermes inspired Kelly bag. The hat…hmmmm…will have to see. Happy that this lady has earrings! I have to be honest…I am shocked we don’t have any new information on the BFC yet…just some vague information that it would be coming out by 03/31/2017. I will be adding this beauty to my collection, club or no club.

I’m not sure how I feel about the facial screening. But I love that outfit! And $75 isn’t too bad…if I can get her.

It is a new type of facial screening. I just love the combo of red hair and that green eyeliner 😉

I think she’s great, love the suit. Don’t like the face-up but I’ll repaint her anyway, and I think she’s well worth getting. I bought the Glam Gown silkstone and was very happy with her, and her face-up is lovely.

Oh to have a talent for repainting! I envy you that. 🙂

I adore her! I pre-ordered her the second I saw her. Love the red hair, her outfit, and LOVE her makeup. And she has accessories! I’ve been collecting for a while, wasn’t a fan of the articulated idea….at first. But bought the Classic Black Dress, and love the poseability! Can’t wait to get this beauty and pose her!

Congrats on acquiring this beauty Christopher! I am still waiting for a better articulated body for these Silkies. I would love to have just a bit more rotation ability in the hands.

I love everything about this doll. Hat is great, suit is wonderful and the kelly purse is to die for . That red hair is sumptuous. If I can us that to describe doll hair..lol Love this from head to toe.

Her hair is indeed sumptuous! It’s a Titian banquet! 😉

It’s now April 24th, and still no sign of the new BFC membership. I feel so adrift!
