Poppy Goes to Paris–A Recap
This years theme for the Poppy Parker collection by David Buttry hit a chord with many collectors. I know it hit this collector right in the wallet. I absolutely adored it and can’t wait to see what David has in store for us Poppy collectors at the Integrity Toys convention in October. While we wait for convention, I thought it would be fun to get a group shot of the Poppys we have enjoyed so far this year. Since Poppy is in Paris, I drew inspiration from one of the most iconic Parisian fashion houses of all time…Dior.

A Picnic in Paris
Now that Integrity Toys has announced their collections and all of our collector wallets are sad and limping, I thought it was time to return to Paris for some fun. If I was returning to Paris, Ms. Poppy was going to join me. This new “Ooh La La” Poppy Parker is my current muse and I am loving the giftset mix and match options.
You have to love rement!

Ooh La La Indeed!!
The WClub Poppy Parker Exclusive arrived just after I returned from Barbiecon a few weeks ago. As with most conventions, I have spent the last couple of weeks going through my acquired treasures and getting over “The convention cold”. When you put around 1,000 people together in a ballroom for multiple events, and these same people get on average 4-5 hours of sleep a night…there is bound to be illness. So… now I am on the mend, I managed to snap some images of this new Poppy Parker and get them ready for the blog.

This one comes to this collector WAY better than the promo shots promised. And the promo shots were pretty darn good. She is simply stunning! Love, Love, Love her.
Love the accessories with this giftset! Lot’s of mix and match options.
I recently had a new logo designed for my main photography business and wanted to try it out on some of the doll shots too. Not too bad 
Thank you Daniel at Photologo!!
For those of you awaiting the beginning of the series of posts on the blogging and doll photography presentation I did at Barbiecon…fear not. It should be up starting this Friday, August 19th. For those of you who did attend the class, the images in this post were taken using the “light bouncing” technique I talked about.
Ooh La La Indeed!!!

Her facial screening has been updated. The eyes are new for this edition. It’s very similar to the screening on their 16 inch Poppy’s…so much so that this collector thought it was a 16 inch Poppy when I first saw the photos. Her ingénue look is gone but then, Poppy is getting older so it tracks that she should get a more mature look. In my opinion, this screening works. I was not a fan of the harder, harsher screening of the IFDC Poppy’s or the convention Poppy’s from 2014. This screening…me likes! The Platinum hair..me also likes. However, I believe collectors are really hoping to see some variations other than blonde from Integrity this year. I also noticed that this Poppy is getting a “numbered certificate”. When did Poppy start getting certificates like the FR/FR2 ladies? Did I miss it last year or is this the first? 
There are a number of mix and match possibilities here and that purse/tote is too cute. Don’t even get me started on the adorable shoes…you had me at the wedge shoes David…you had me at the wedges. Merci Beaucoup!!! 
**Members have until Tuesday, April 26th at noon ET to preorder this one.**
