Barbie Style Midge & Life in the Dreamhouse Midge Dolls Haul

 Hello there! I've had quite a hiatus from my blog here, and during this time I've decreased my doll collection and have been trying to significanly reduce it for a period of months. Let's just say the dolls were literally taking over my life. Of course, there are dolls in my collection that I will never part with, but I have parted with many various dolls and toys both in box and out which I've sold online, in person, and donated to charity. However, I'm back and I'm ready to share more of the dolls in my collection!

A while back I bought a couple of Midge dolls which were released in 2012-2013 I believe. They are the Barbie Style Midge doll and the Barbie & Midge Life in the Dreamhouse dolls. These dolls were not easy to find for a reasonable price unfortunately (like so many dolls these days if you're buying them anytime after their original release date), and I believe I bought them off amazon.com for the best price I could find. Yes, amazon.com, not .ca. I've bought so many dolls of amazon.com because they were either unavailable on amazon.ca, or it was significantly cheaper to buy them off amazon.com even with the conversion rate and shipping which is saying a lot.



I've always been a fan of Midge, and when I came across these newer versions of Midge with the Steffie face and articulated bodies I just had to get Midge! Barbie Style Midge has long dirty blonde hair and bangs, piercing blue eyes and a very light springing of freckles on her face. She is wearing a cute little outfit with red heels and a matching red belt. My favourite part of the outfit is the Robins Egg Blue cardigan and the cute little handbag.





Below is the Barbie Life in the Dreamhouse Barbie & Midge doll pack. Let's face it...I bought this set just for the Midge doll but I have to admit the Barbie in this set is very pretty. I just wish they would have given her a nicer outfit (like Midge's) and did without the gaudy necklace!


The Midge in this doll set has long strawberry blonde or reddish hair with a softer set of bangs which don't come from so far back on her head. Her eyes seem a little wider or larger and less piercing than the blonde Midge which I like, and she still has the light freckles and real lashes.

                                                See what I mean by those piercing eyes...







Here I changed Barbie Style Midge out of her original outfit and put her in a cute Fashionistas dress which makes it look like these two Midge sisters are on their way to a cocktail party! Although I love both dolls, I must say the Life in the Dreamhouse Midge is my favourite because I prefer Midge with reddish hair, and I like her overall hair style and softer look better than Blonde Midge.


                                                                 Besties already!



Until next time, thank you for stopping by!
