1981 Golden Dream Christie
1982 Bride Tracy in Twice as Nice Fashion
This lady is stunning, just perfect with thick hair. I didn't know what to dress in her in so tried this Twice as Nice outfit from my friend Lori (who I also got Tracy from) and she was turned in into a Latino looking goddess.

Barbie Vs Jem
After a long spell of collecting Sindy & Barbie, I was looking for something in my (now) smaller Jem box. I thought as this is Barbie Vs Jem I would take a few pictures of the girls I now have. I have managed to get myself down to (pretty much) one of each doll as at one point I had 100+
These surviving girls are who I think are the prettiest ones of the dolls I had. More pictures to come so stay tuned...
Danse of The Holograms
Synergy of The Holograms
I don't believe Synergy was ever released in the UK so I never had her as a kid as I am sure I would have done, I don't think we got Jetta either but I may be wrong.
Synergy is such a cool doll as she is purple. Her outfit looks nothing like the one on the show, and makes her look like an 80's alien fitness instructor
Roxy of The Misfits
Roxy was always a favourite doll for me and my sister as kids. This is the 2nd edition Roxy and she differs a little to my original 1st edition. My original girl had polker straight hair like my original Pizzazz. I do prefer the 2nd year dolls as they seem to move better and have nicer hair. I never got any of the 2nd year dolls as a kid as I wasn't keen on the clothes. I did get them again when I started to re-collect but again I didn't like the clothes so packed them off to someone that did ;)

1992 - Special Expressions Barbie (Whitney)
Such a beauty!
Special Expressions Barbie is a Woolworth exclusive to the USA in 1992, my friend Lori had sent me a list of Steffie faced dolls and I just glanced over the name thinking she would have some sort of strange expressions face. How wrong I was, this beautiful girl arrived in the box and was a huge surprise. She is one of my favourite girls now and is clearly Whitney. She looks a lot like the rare Ultra Hair Whitney so maybe her face and makeup where re-used? She has the most beautiful hair as it's a light brown shade and so shiny & glossy. Thanks again to Lori :)
1985 - Peaches & Cream Barbie
Peaches was a childhood favourite doll. Barbie was a great in 1984/5 and the UK was really pushing forward Barbie over Sindy and I was hooked as I was an easy influenced kid ;)
I won this girl with an 1987 Sindy for 99p, she is an original Peaches too. I spotted her her a mile off so was pleased that on one did as she is quite popular due to the re-release. I have had her a while but she gets to show her face here as my friend Lori sent me her outfit. Thanks Lori :)
1990 - Lights and Lace Teresa
Lights and Lace Teresa falls just out of my usual collecting era but I couldn't resist her. With her big brown eyes and masses of dark hair.
I am going to say nothing about the whole concept of this doll or what they dressed the poor thing in. The belt is the light and as for the oversized hairbow?!
A quick hair touch up, new dress and Jems earrings she looks a bit less like 80's Cyndi Lauper at a kids party! The dress is an outfit I loved as a kid and was a bargain at 50p from e-bay
1983 Sun Gold Malibu P.J.

1982 - Pink & Pretty Christie
Just stunning
Pink & Pretty Barbie was my favorite as a kid, My sister got her me a few years back in the box so I was happy. I then found a picture of Pink & Pretty Christie and instantly fell in love with her but not the cost. She was like $170+ in the box so I never dreamed I would get her.
My wonderful new Barbie pal said she had a spare so I jumped at the offer of owning her and she is now in my top 3 dolls!
She had rather thick matted hair at first, I tried a makeover but I still wasn't happy with the results as it was all bushy and hard to manage. I boiled the kettle ready to straighten it.
When I nervously poured the water over her head, all the fuzz seemed to disappear and keep the beautiful wave to it. I have never tried this method on Barbie before but it worked and gave me the perfect result.
1987 - Perfume Pretty Whitney
I have wanted Perfume Pretty Whitney for a long time,I had Perfume Pretty Barbie as a kid and I got her again a few years back but she had rubbish hair so I sold her on. On the back of the box it showed the beautiful Whitney doll and I have wanted her since. With the help of my new Barbie friend who is also a Steffie Faced collector I managed to get her loose as she is hard to find in the UK and she is a stunner.
She needed a little hair makeover (as she had toybox hair LOL) but it came out well considering that they used 2 fabrics for her hair and the lighter highlights are made from fuzzy material!
1991 - Benetton Teresa
Benntton Teresa is quite stunning and not a doll i really knew about as she falls just out of my 80's era of collecting. A new Barbie friend suggested her to me as I was buying a few Steffie faced dolls from her. I am glad I took her up on the offer as she is quite stunning and unusal. With her stunning hair and beautiful eyes she certainly stands out as does her outfit.
