Sweet country girl

Some time ago I finished a new dress for Susumi and decided to take some photos of her on Saturday :) These are also the first proper photos of Susu with her new eyes from White Dolly Story! The wig is from Leekeworld, got it from a group order that I hosted. This is probably Susu's new favorite, it's easier to manage than the earlier multicolor wig she has and actually might look cuter overall!

Getting back to the dress... I've had this fabric for years! Last year I made a dress from it for my Withdoll Angela that wears mori girl style too, but there was still a lot of the fabric left so naturally I wanted to use it for Susu's mori dress as well. I've hoarded quite many fabrics with flower patterns, but this is still one of my top favorites ^^

I'm quite happy with these photos, even though the background setup is quite simple and there's nothing that special posing wise either... I just really love this doll and enjoy taking photos of her ♥♥ Even though she's been home for only a few months, she has already been quite spoiled ^^;;


In her little basket Susu has some bottles filled with different candies that Sarg has made from polymer clay :3 There is also a bunch of nuts wrapped nicely in plastic! The basket itself was decorated to match Susu's outfit~

I just love these eyes, they're so pretty! ♥ In photos the color looks more blue-ish than purple, but I got another pair of eyes as a gift that has a brighter purple shade. I might swap to those at some point, for now I'm really liking this pair though, even if it's not the color I had originally in mind :)


Susu is happy about the straw hat that she finally got from Taobao after waiting for a few months (due to some pre-order items in the order). The decorations weren't so nice though, but luckily we had some cute flowers, lace and ribbon to replace them and now the hat matches perfectly with this mori/country girl look :)





A close up of Susu's cute shoes~ ♥ These arrived in the mail last week, they match the brown flowers in the dress perfectly ;3;

For next, Susumi probably needs a warmer outfit... It's winter here already and some parts of Finland are covered in snow, yet here I am sewing summer dresses X'D I do have a few long sleeve shirts and sweaters in the making though. Sarg also wants to make a cute felted bag as a Christmas present for Susu~

I thought that Susu would be my only Dollfie Dream, but of course she has started to demand at least one friend >__< I actually really like Shijou Takane that was recently announced and I'm going to enter the lottery for her. I won't be too sad if I don't win though, since there's always the second-hand market possibility and Volks is releasing new cuties all the time. Susu will get her friend eventually :)

    1. Thanks so much ^^
      I feel like I still have a lot to learn in sewing, but I've started to be more satisfied with my own work little by little~

  2. Oh gosh, that dress is fabulous. The fabric, colour and design go really well with her and gives her that country girl feel. I adore these photos of her. They have this light, spring feel to them. And as always, great sets.

    Every time I see your photos and a few others' photos of their Dollfie Dream, I feel my desire for them rise again. I manage to quash it down most of the time but you sure are fanning that temptation! Maybe one day (and a lot of saving up) I might manage to get a head and body separately and have my own.

    1. Thank you very much :) I'm really happy that I still had this fabric in storage. We have very little natural light at this time of year, but great to hear that the photos still look good!

      Oh noes :D Dollfie Dreams do have their special charm I think! I managed to resist them for quite a while, but after the opportunity to get this girl (which was my favorite DD) came up, I couldn't resist any longer >3<

  4. Mikä ihanuus!
    Piti käydä kurkkaamassa Shijou Takane-linkkiä ja kyllä ymmärrän miksi pidät hänestä. Minulle nämä nuket ovat aika uutta, niin sitä on ollut siellä sun täällä netissä ja lista sen kuin kasvaa. Mutta kun ei ole tilaa - on kait aika hankkia lisää tilaa! Uusi asunto, haha! ;)

      Joo nukkejen kanssa alkaa välillä tuntua siltä kuin ne tarvitsisi oman talon...

    1. Oh thank you dear! ♥ Warm colors do seem to suit her well, though I also enjoy dressing her up in pastel colors, hahah~ It'd be great to try out some nice chocolate brown eyes for her indeed!

  6. Voi mikä ihana asu suloiselle neidolle! <3 Ilme näyttää toisinaan hieman huolestuneelta, pelkääköhän Susu likaavansa vaalean mekon? :D Odotan innolla kuvia myös talvivaatteista! n__n

    1. Kiitos paljon! Kieltämättä vähän huolissaan vaikuttaa olevan tämä tyttö, jospa vaikka johtuu juuri tuosta likaantumispelosta :/ Ehkä ei ainakaan pahimpiin kuralammikoihin mennä mönkimään tässä mekossa... Toivottavasti saataisiin lunta tänne pian ja päästäisiin kuvailemaan talvimaisemissa ^^

  7. Mun sydän pakahtuu, tämä tyttö on liian kaunis. ♥ Tuo peruukki on aivan ihana, onko Leeken peruukki? Näyttää kovasti siltä nimittäin. :) Ihanat vaatteet hänellä myös!

    1. Voi kiitoksia kovasti! ♥ Peruukki on tosiaan Leekeltä, en nyt suoralta kädeltä muista onko se joku limited-malli vai normaalistikin myynnissä. Leekellä on jokunen kaksivärinen peruukkimalli normimyynnissä nykyisin myös nimittäin :)
