Fashion Doll Friday: Mattel High School Stacie 1988


I took a deep dive into my crated dolls to find this week’s Friday Girl. She is High School Stacie from 1988. You have to love how Mattel keeps recycling names. How many Stacie’s and Chelsea’s have we had over the years? Different spellings but same name.

So, this Stacie is a friend of Barbie’s long-lost cousin Jazzie. Jazzie had two friends Stacie and, you guessed it, Chelsie who is a redhead. I have her too but not Jazzie herself.

Stacie is wearing her original outfit minus a white top. Not sure about the shoes either. As you can see, she has the Steffie face sculpt.

If you would like to see High School Chelsie I’ll try to find her for an upcoming post.

I was born in England in 1957 and lived there until our 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. In 2015 David became ill and passed away in October of that year. I currently co-write two blogs on WordPress.com with my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania. In November 2019 I began a new life in the house that Naomi and I intend to make our retirement home at Sisters Beach in Tasmania's northwest. Currently we have five pets between us. Naomi's two dogs Toby and Teddy and cats, Tigerwoods and Panther and my cat Polly. My dog Cindy passed away aged 16 in April 2022.

  3. High School Stacie is a charming doll. I love all the vibrant colours of her outfit. If you can find your High School Chelsie it would be greeat to see her, too. Maybe even show the two dolls together. I do find the re-use of names annoying when I’m trying to identify a doll.

  4. Stacie is a beautiful doll. I agree it would be better to have some new names though, there are plenty to choose from. I sometimes keep the name and will change it if I already have a doll with that name. I have a Stacey who is a 1974 Barbie with the Stacey headmold. She is on the Readers Gallery page receiving a valentines heart from Ken
