This is Sophie here! Remember me? I’m the one that has wonderful fashion sense? Long silvery hair? *notes spark of recognition* Yup, that’s me!

Anyways, Michelle’s been super busy lately. She’s in school (don’t know why, I never went to a day of formal schooling and I turned out just fine, right?) and so she has a lot of “excuses” as to why she can’t take photos of me (and Belarus, I suppose). Like she’s got a lot of papers to write that are worth a “shitload of marks” and she’s got midtems (that are worth even more marks!) and she’s got finals to start studying for. Michelle is such a nerd sometimes. Ugh.

That being said… She had her birthday recently, which was cool. She’s like ancient compared to me and Belarus. Honestly, she’s 20 years old. She’s only about 17 years younger than the original Kenner Blythes! But that being said, she had a pretty awesome friend. One of her friends went and bought me (and Belarus, since I do have to share sometimes…) some awesome Re-ment clothing (a screenprinted yellow tee and checkered overalls that look so adorable), a thrifted baby blue Vespa (Mattel – Barbie sized) and some really awesomely cute Re-ment accessories (hair combs, some makeup). So it was like our birthdays too, not just hers!

I wish I could sneak some photos of some wonderful new clothes that me and Belarus got lately. Michelle was really nice to us and got us some new outfits to wear! She says that she got them at a Japanese store that was in a Chinese-centric mall. Whatever that means. All I know is that we got new outfits and that she didn’t start complaining about how much it cost, so it must have been a pretty good deal!

We each got our very own kimonos (I got the pink one while Rusy got the blue one). I also got my own school uniform (Belarus got hers before mine, it was so unfair!), and we got some clothes that we ‘have to share’. One’s really a outfit for next Halloween (it’s a French maid outfit!) and the other is a sundress that I’m not too much of a fan of – I much prefer my Enchanted Petal stock dress compared to the sundress, but Rusy seems to like it so I guess she can have that one. But with these new outfits that Michelle bought us, we also got five new pairs of shoesies! Luckily Rusy and I wear the same size, so we can share our shoes (I’m not a huge fan of sharing shoes, but do you know how disgusting Rusy’s feet can get if she doesn’t have footwear on?). We got 2 pairs of flipflops, 2 pairs of high heels (one in black, which is so awesome, and the other in white, which is almost equally as awesome) and one pair of black school shoes (for me! since Belarus already has her own pair).

Once Michelle gets un-busy, I’m going to make her take some photos of Belarus and myself modeling our new outfits, and maybe even some action shots of the new Vespa out on the road!

Whoops, I think I hear someone coming! Shhh, don’t let Michelle know that I was blogging!

I went out today to go shopping and found these cute doll outfits that went with these ugly looking dolls (their faces were *very* similar to Licca dolls, but the eyes were way too big and the bodies looked… odd. The arms were a completely different shade from the body!). And they had separate outfits for sale, so I figured I’d give it a try (just bought the one outfit – came with 1 pair of shoes and 1 outfit – the shirt and skirt are one piece). I figured at a few dollars, it would be okay if it didn’t work out (I was worried the shoes wouldn’t fit). But the shoes fit! And the schoolgirl outfit fits beautifully as well There’s some stray threads on the inside and I’m going to fray check it all.

The shoes are black PVC – I haven’t left them on her feet for very long (rather afraid of them staining her poor little feet), but so far they haven’t stained (however, I have only left them on for about 10 minutes). So here is Belarus, dressed up as a schoolgirl!
