Pearl after the Storm

Image

It has been too hot to go outdoors to take photographs for several days. Today, a downpour of rain happened and as soon as it was over, I went outside to take the photos in a much cooler environment though humid. You may notice a golden hue to some of the photos caused by the sun’s rays pushing through the clouds and mist just after the storm.

This is Pearl and she is happy to wear a new, lovely dress made by Fanny Boiten earlier this year. It fits her perfectly and I love the color with Pearl’s red hair.

Pearl is a graphic eyed NP girl probably made in the later part of 1966 at the Trendon factory in England.

Very nice trimming on her dress and I love the rose print of the fabric.

Pearl is holding a sweet dolly and wearing great shoes made by Marti Murphy.

A few photos of pretty Pearl.

A close up photo of Pearl.

Pearl and I thank you for stopping by and we hope you enjoyed this post. We also hope you have a wonderful week to come.

Pearl says stay cool everyone!

The following Waterlogue images are for you to enjoy. The first two are the same photo but using a different coloring option. The second two images are also of the same photo using different coloring options.

A Beautiful February Day

Image

Today was the most beautiful day. Not only were the temperatures in the 60’s but the sun was shining nearly all day long. It is also my son Luke’s birthday and we had a great time celebrating his special day with family and friends. 😊

I could not resist taking photos outdoors today. First up is Carney, my first NP and she is an early girl made in 1966. ❤

Carney is wearing a very beautiful dress made by Petrana. Her purple boots are from Sashapotamus and they have 8 individual buckles to give her a fun, spirited look.

Carney is a very sweet girl and I have missed dressing her up. I love her large blue eyes. ❤

A closer view.

😊

Next for us to see is Pearl, a 1966 graphic eyed NP. She is wearing a lovely dress made by Petrana. Her green leather shoes were made by Marti Murphy. 😊

I love the detailing on Petrana’s dress. ❤

Pearl is a very thoughtful girl and she loves to read. ❤

I would love to have an outfit like this to wear!

🌹

Our next little lady is Chloe, an early 1966 NP with deep blue eyes. She is wearing a beautiful outfit made by Petrana. Her boots were made by Ruthsdolls. Chloe positioned her scarf as a sash for her dress since the weather was too warm to wear a coat and scarf. I like the look! 😊

The lovely Chloe in a lovely dress. 🌹

A closer look at her deep blue eyes. ❤

🌹

What a joy it was to be able to be outdoors and photograph the girls. Chloe enjoyed the sunshine too. 😊

🌹

Chloe would like to introduce the last lovely lady, her sister Ellen. Drum roll please……..

Here is Ellen, a later 66 NP with lovely graphic eyes and just a hint of eyelashes. She is wearing a beautiful studio outfit by Ginny of a Passion for Sasha. Her wonderful leather shoes were made by Marti Murphy. ❤

🌹 Ellen 🌹

I love this outfit with the ruffles at the neckline and cuffs. It fits perfectly and the colors are lovely. ❤

🌹

This week on Facebook, the early Sasha dolls were featured to include photos of eye paintings up close. I really enjoyed the photos. So, next are a few photos of eye paintings of these four girls. 😊

Carney up close and closer still. 🌹

Pearl up close and closer still. 🌹

Chloe up close and closer still. 🌹

Ellen up close and closer still. 🌹

Lastly, I took a few photos of the girls together. I hope you enjoy the photos of these happy girls. 😊

Pearl, Ellen, Chloe, and Carney. 🌹

We thank you for visiting with us today and we wish you a very happy weekend and week to come. 😊 xxx

Merry Christmas! Do You See What I See?

Four early 1966 girls are gathering to wish you a very Merry Christmas. 🙂

“Merry Christmas” from Sylvia. ❤

“Merry Christmas” from Joy. ❤

“Merry Christmas” from Pearl. ❤

“Merry Christmas” from Hannah. ❤

Four unique redheaded girls. 🙂

Sylvia’s hair is in a ponytail which looks nice with her “wings” on each side of her face.

The sweet Sylvia up close. 🙂

Joy has her hair plaited and is wearing a festive outfit made by Ruthsdolls.

I love Joy’s blue eyes. ❤

Pearl is wearing a lovely smocked dress by Karen Warnaka. The weather is unseasonably warm today, in the 60’s, so short sleeves are comfortable and no jackets! 🙂

My Pearl up close. ❤

Hannah is wearing her smocked dress by Karen Warnaka and your can see it better without the jacket and the crocheted collar. 🙂

Hannah up close. ❤

Hello girls! 🙂

Pearl. 🙂

Sylvia. 🙂

Joy. 🙂

Hannah. 🙂

Pearl closer still. A few photos to show the “eyes” of these girls. Do you see what I see? 🙂

Sylvia’s eyes. 🙂

Joy’s eyes. 🙂

Hannah’s eyes. 🙂

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New year! 🙂 xxx

By Early Morning Light

Image

The big beautiful sun is out today and shining in all of its glory! Yeah! 🙂

I first thought of Adeline and how I wanted to take her photo wearing our newly acquired Karen Warnaka dress. Her olive green, leather shoes are from Sashapotamus. 🙂

Adeline is a 1967 Trendon NP and I named her after my late and much loved grandmother. It seems just right that the heavenly rays are shining on us today. ❤

I thought it would be nice to see the first light of the day as it filters through the trees and warms us on this very crisp and frosty morning. 🙂

It is interesting to see the different light on Adeline as the day wakes up around us. ❤

So I took a lot of photos to share with you. 🙂

Adeline. 🙂

A full length view for you to see. 🙂

Adeline up close. I love her eyes. ❤

I love this outfit on Adeline. ❤

The lovely smocking. 🙂

The lovely belt with snap closures and button accents. The dress details make for an exceptional garment. 🙂

The knitted socks are perfect and the shoes worked out very well. 🙂

A waterlogue image of dear Adeline. ❤

My grandmother Adeline’s middle name was Pearl. So it seemed very fitting this morning to bring with Adeline her sister Pearl. ❤

Pearl in the early morning light. ❤

Wisely, Pearl dressed warm this morning. 😉

This lovely oufit was sold in two lots on Shelly’s site. I crossed my fingers that I would be in time to get both lots to join this lovely coat with the matching pants. 🙂

The knitted hat and scarf came with the coat. They are perfect together. 🙂

This knitted top and matching socks came with the pants. 🙂

This beautiful outfit was made by Sasha Wardrobe. ❤

Pearl wearing her new outfit with ballet pink leather shoes from Sashapotamus. I have the perfect pair of brown boots for this set but I wanted to show these pretty matching socks. 🙂

Pearl is a 1966 NP Trendon girl. We took her hat off so you could see her pretty red hair. ❤

I love her pretty brown graphic eyes. ❤

We took a few photos with the coat removed. 🙂

The sun is shining on Pearl. ❤

Pearl in pink though some say redheads should not wear pink, I always wore pink with my red hair and felt great wearing that color. Pearl likes pink too! 😉

Pearl up close. 🙂

Pearl in a pose. 🙂

Pearl is getting a bit cold without her coat. 😦

“Please Mommy, may I put my coat on?” Yes, of course Pearl, let’s warm up! 🙂

There, that is much better my dear Pearl. ❤

“Where is my sister Adeline?”

There she is! Now Adeline and Pearl are together again. 🙂

Sisters. ❤

Adeline and Pearl want to thank you for visiting with them today. They hoped you enjoyed your time with us. 🙂

They also are sending you hugs and happy wishes for a wonderful week to come! 🙂

Neither girl wants to go back inside the house. It is a beautiful day here at Sasha Shangri-La and it is best to enjoy the day outdoors if you can. ❤

A final farewell photo. 🙂 xxx

A parting gift of a waterlogue image of Adeline and Pearl. ❤

Pretty Pearl Poses

A brief post of the lovely Pearl, a 1966 Trendon girl with brown eyes and red hair. 🙂

Pearl is wearing a sweet sundress with matching pants made by Ruthsdolls. Her white leather sandals were made by Jean Jensen. She is holding her soft teddy. 🙂

The under blouse was made by JoAnn Staricha. Pearl is happy to be outdoors in the warm sunshine. The rain finally let up and allowed us to go outdoors. 🙂
