Fashion Doll Friday – Jan’s Dance Dress
It’s all about the dress

My Red Basics Barbie in a OOAK outfit I particularly like. Like a lot of fashions made for the twist & turn body the bodice fits loosely on the Model Muse body but she still looks nice in it.

I came to Australia with my mother and sister Vanda in 1966 from the UK aboard the Sitmar liner Castel Felice. We settled in South Australia I lived in the western suburbs of Adelaide for most of my life. I became very interested in retro items in my twenties. It was always a dream of mine to have an old house and fill it with retro items. I have done it twice now. My main interest is collecting old things. They do not have to be valuable, only interesting. There is something reassuring about old retro items. I have all sorts of things including doll related items. My other interests are my beautiful pets, art and going for drives to who knows where. I also enjoy board games or doing a scenic jig saw puzzle on a wintry afternoon by the fire. My goal is to travel a bit more as there are some places I would love to see

Born in England in 1957 my family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008. We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. David passed away in 2015 and I'm here on my own now but I have Cindy the dog and Polly the cat to keep me company. I currently write two Wordpress blogs. My doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", which I co-edit with my sister Naomi; and "My Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania.

Share Your World 2017 – Week #37

Sharing My World This Week Complete this sentence: I want to learn more about …sewing and adapting patterns. I’d love to become a better doll dressmaker especially for the poor old Ken dolls as Mattel only ever seems to dress them as bridegrooms or beach bums. On a vacation what you would require […]

Bad Photo Monday: What shall we do with a drunken sailor?

My photo for today is of my two sailor dolls. I was taking photos of them for Vanda’s Doll site for a post. Inside the house was much too dark so I decided to take them outside. I set them up on the back steps because then I could lean them up against the wall […]
