Volks Tea Party & New Dress Set
I debated going to the Volks Tea Party, but decided against it. As much as I love Japanese dolls, I don’t particularly have any desire to be surrounded by large crowds of doll enthusiasts anytime soon and I don’t have the extra pennies to blow on any unplanned purchases. I am also saving up my pennies for a new doll purchase later this year or a body or my poor F-15 head and I’m considering visiting the Volks LA store for a FCS order. I’m really looking forward to seeing what the new head molds will look like! I may end up just ordering a doll and my F-15 head will have to share it’s body.
I did manage to blow some money on a limited Volks outfit for my SD girl last week that I’ve been itchin to get her since I first saw it. I think it will look really fabulous with the Luts fashion I bought my boys a few weeks ago which arrived in all it’s splendor, but I haven’t had the free time to snap any photos of it yet. I’ll probably wait until the Volks dress set arrives for my girl so I can do a Hammer Horror style photo shoot with them both together wearing their matching costumes.
Here’s a photo of the Volks dress set I bought my girl. It reminds me a lot of something out of the Spanish Inquisition. I can also easily imagine Elizabeth Báthory wearing it. It was originally made for the Volks second limited edition Cyndy.





I wish I was in CA, I’d love to go to the event to see the Volks staff and a few of my BJD friends who live in CA ~.~ I love Cyndy 2’s default outfit! Looking for her wig for my F-15 boy actually :s

Thanks for the comments! I think I got spoiled after my last Japan trip. Visiting every Volks shop in Tokyo sort of beats anything I could probably experence at the LA store, but if you happen to have lots of doll loving friends who will be going to the LA Tea Party and like large gatherings of doll nuts then you’d probably have fun there. I’m more lowkey I suppose. :)
