Jazz Baby Doll Reader exclusive by Val Zeitler

In January of this year, Haute Doll released a limited edition exclusive doll, Jazz Baby, available for purchase to attendees. She is produced by DollHeart and designed by Val Zeitler. She stands 23" (58cm) tall, and is simply amazing.

She has a 1980s Speakeasy theme--she includes a soft vintage wardrobe, with additional outfits to come during the year. She includes a cigarette holder, beauty mark and garter. She is limited to just 40 dolls, and now, you can purchase this lovely girl through the Doll Reader's website for $695. Shipping is an additional $30 to Canada, and additional $60 to other international destinations.

Oh, I just adore her!

This girl is one of the many, many reasons you need to subscribe to one of the fabulous doll magazines out there. Whether in print or online, be a support of these great publications! It's a fantastic resource!

Update--Sorry about that. My links weren't all working earlier. I've just fixed them. 

Kim Lasher's 2012 releases

Kim Lasher has released four new gorgeous BJDs at IDEX, and they are simply scrumptious.

Fiona is limited to 100 dolls worldwide, retails for $655, and features a hand-painted face-up, red ponytails, and a casual look. She stands 15.5" tall.

Lydia Grimmsley is a new size this year, close to YoSD or about 11" tall, and is a gothic-inspired cutie. She limited to 100 and retails for $495 and can wear most clothing designed for YoSD dolls.

Eryka is a 23" offering and features a cute knit zebra cap, black wig, tulle skirt and fuzzy pink skirt with black sweatshirt. She's limited to just 75 pieces and retails for $925.

Eden uses the same sculpt as Eryka, only in a tan resin. Her outfit is similar, with a black tulle skirt, pink fuzzy shirt, leopard sweatshirt, and gray knit cap. She also is limited to 75 and retails for $925.

As to be expected with Kim's dolls, these girls will sell out quickly on pre-orders, so be sure to order them from your favorite dealer soon, if one (or more) catches your fancy. Happily Ever After, The Toy Shoppe and Denver Doll Emporium are some of my favorites.
