And I am...French Royalty!

Tis true...I have become officially part of the French Royal Family. Although, I am actually Austrian...

My explanation: Halloween! I am a girly-girl all the way, and therefore, for Halloween I get to dress up as whatever fluffy character I want to! Granted, Marie Antoinette isn't the fluffiest of characters considering her gory death, but I enjoy her fashion statements. And I did my research! I read her biography, and I have just gotten my hands on two more books about her life. The book by Antonia Fraser, and Abundance: A Novel of Marie Antoinette. Woohoo. Looking forward to that.
Anyways, my explanation going further...The weekend could possibly be my favorite weekend of the year. Since 5th or 6th grade I've been having my friends come up to our family farm for the Halloween party at my grandma's former nursing home. Sadly, the Magnificent Mikayla couldn't be there this year, owing to the fact that she had to go and move to Colorado...Anyways, they always have food and a haunted forest. Oogyboogywoo! The first couple years, I was so scared. I think I actually had nightmares after going through that place. They have a guy with a chainsaw and everything. Exactly my point. But to continue, I have to say, I must be maturing. I wasn't scared at all this year. So, I was able to enjoy to the fullest the screaming of my friends Adrianna and Celeste. Heheheh. Ain't she cute?
And may I present my large, pillowed behind?
At the Villa, we were a hit. While we were eating, a little girl was so busy staring at me that she didn't watch where she was going, and she walked to my buddy Celeste's chair. So incredibly funny and cute at the same time. She didn't get hurt don't worry.
Remove Formatting from selection Humdiddledumdum. Let me explain my red ribbon...During the French Revolution (after Marie was executed) the women aristocrats who were in danger of being guillotined took to wearing red ribbons on their necks to symbolize...Well, you can imagine what they symbolized.
Marie Antoinette, Merlin, Clowny, and Mary Poppins.

Flying away with Mary's umbrella!
Ahahahaha.

As I have already stated, I am an ultimate girly-girl. I adore lace, pouff, and bows. Ribbons all the way baby. So when I found these AWESOME dollmakers a few days ago, upon the request of the Magnificent Mikayla to check out Dollzmania.com again, I went nustso. I love Japan! I think that all the dolls below came from dollmakers of Japanese design, and woooee! Nuff said.
This one's my favorite. I apparently love red hair. (Look at those adorable bows!)
Pouffy! Ahhh!
Ok, so I lied. This doll was Korean. She reminds me so much of Demeter, from Greek myths.
Teehee! This is so cute. My man with blue hair...*sigh*
Yellow is my favorite color! Sadly, this dress isn't very puffy.
But this dress is! I want it sooo bad. Grrr.
Oh well...Sadly, however much I want to be, I will never be an anime character. *sniff*
