I had this day been mapped out ever since I have heard that Barbie would be part of the incoming season of Fashion Week.
Luckily, I manage to have tickets to the show... Talk about friends!!! ahihiihi... I don't have to buy anything for the tickets!!!!! ^_^ I even filed a vacay leave just to watch the show.
I even designed and had my Barbie inspired outfit made. hehehehe.... "A "for effort!!!! ^_^
Now, the illusive day of the show arrived. While I was lounging with my partner, a very interesting text message was received. Nancy (we met her a few years back from the annual warehouse sale that B's having every year) from B's distributor in our country was asking for my number. Then my partner gave her my number. Then after a few minutes, my mobile phone rang. I was having a great time that I can get to watch Barbie during fashion week but being offered to showcase my creation as a part of her 50th anniversary and DURING FASHION WEEK?! My life couldn't get any better!!! ^_^.
To tell you honestly, I panicked. I have no idea which doll to bring. But, I managed to come up with dolls to bring. hehehhe... It was a very challenging day to say the least. I have planned my day ahead. I allotted time to finish my outfit but, with the exhibit, I realized that I was pressed for time.
We left the house earlier than expected. I even finished my garb inside the car. Master crammer in the house!!!! LOL
We made it to the venue (but I was a wee bit late).
OOOhhhh!! as if the Heaven's opend
Our contact person immediately greeted us and showed us our designated booth. I was happy to see that there awas a pedestal alloted for us. So my partner and I managed to setup the dolls thanks to our dollstands (AVAILABLE FOR SALE).
The display was fab! BUT WAIT THERE"S MORE!!! What struck me most is when after we were done with the setup, A glass case was placed to protect my dolls. That would be the cherry on the top!!!
I get so sit on a very spiffy pink couch beside a life size die cut photo of Barbie ( Cool gown!!!)
^_^
This is one of my favorite Barbie Illustrations!!! (you can see more in my joint blog with my partner at www.nyadolls.blogspot.com).
I even met Karylle(a local celeb in our country). A vert nice lady indeed and talk about a mile long legs...She was a doll!! She told me that she remembered me from my KMJS Barbie feature
Funny, I was slouching in this photo and she asked me why I was slouching. hehehehehhe.... ^_^
So we had another shot with me standing properly... ^_^
This was the last shot we had!!! I really like her a lot she's very pretty an classy too!!!
