Paperdoll Mishaps

                        

Looking in the mirror she realized she forgot to take her white hi-top socks off and put on her red polka dotted underwear! Now she understood why people were whispering and laughing at her!

Naivete is not necessarily a bad thing, especially when you are eccentric!

    What a sweet paper doll – oh I am just amazed by your collection! Hooray for eccentric girls – who wear hi-top socks with skirts. Although, I would also be bummed if I forgot to put on my red polka dotted underwear! Even though nobody knows about it – it so makes the outfit!

  5. My favorite part is her flowery crown caused by the quilting.

    Eccentric -ROCKS!!!
    I just received a vintage paper doll set from the 60’s , but have not yet had the time to take her out and play. I must find the time -Dear Corey, and post a new friend for your little eccentric up on my blog =)

    Eccentric? If you are and know it, you have something valuable worth fighting for. Thanks for my “thoughts for the day” dear Corey.

    Oh my gosh, I just totally had a nostalgic feeling seeing those. I loved paper dolls. I hated regular dolls but give me a paper doll and I was satisfied for a full afternoon. My girls however could care less about them. Too many newer fancier gadgets I guess.

    how cool! I remember playing with paper dolls. They were my favorite, but obviously looked different.

    Anything is stylish on an eccentric 🙂

    I think it’s just as sweet as pure, white sugar that you carried these paper dolls with you accross the sea!
    But, clearly, she was ready for an adventure…how could you deny her intrigue?

    Aww..the familiar cute paperdoll. Apparently the French has a habit of matching their clothes with their underwear do you know if this is true? In a way, I think that is a lovely culture thing 🙂

  17. I wish I had a wardrobe like hers. =) How wonderful!

  18. la vie en rose

    she’s a cutie!

  19. hmmmm, Corey. You make me wonder if that is how you feel? Because Eccentric people are my favorite kind!

    i’d prefer to call her “unique”…
    someone with a style all her own & one who doesn’t give a care what others might be whispering about!
