The sun at the summer solstice is the great symbol of life at its peak—burning, radiant, unstoppable.
- Mara Freeman

Today, joining our own , Ivy embodies Áine (pronounced Awn-ya), the ancient Irish goddess of summer, fertility, abundance, and sovereignty. On the Summer Solstice—the first official day of summer—it seems only fitting to celebrate the goddess most closely associated with the season’s warmth, light, and vitality. She is delighted to join for with feeling hot, hot, hot, together with .c.p.i for with yellow, and of course for and for too!

Revered as a goddess of sunlit fields and midsummer celebrations, Áine’s name means “brightness” or “radiance.” Queen of the Faeries and guardian of the land, she is often associated with the graceful swan, a symbol of beauty, transformation, and the Otherworld. She reminds us that true power shines from within.

Happy Summer Solstice friends! Happy Father's Day to all those celebrating! Happy Sunday dolls! 💛🦢💛🧚🏻‍♀️💛

Gliders, sail planes, they're wonderful flying machines. It's the closest you can come to being a bird.
- Neil Armstrong

Do you and your spouse ever wear matching outfits when you travel? My hubby and I do not, but we do sometimes try to be colour coordinated. I do think it looks adorable on other couples! 🩵

Tawny and Cole are doing the couple matchy-matchy as they join and for with voyage vogue today. Cole is going to try flying a glider plane! Wish him luck!! ✈️

IRL my hubby was gifted a glider flight for Christmas and he recently got to fulfill this experience. He did amazing flying the plane and absolutely loved it. Meanwhile, he has been working on building a 3-D print plane in 1:6 scale and our hope is that at some point in the future, we can get photos of Cole in that. It's a lot of work though! ✈️

Cole and Tawny also join for and for with summer vibes, and of course Margaret Ann | Doll Photography, Tutorials & Reviews for with ready to go! 🩵

Swipe to the end to see hubby bringing in the glider plane for a landing. Happy Friday dolls! 🩵✈️🩵

How do you feel about couple's matchy-matchy?

You can’t reach for anything new if your hands are still full of yesterday’s junk. – Louise Smith

"TA-DA!!" called Tawny from the bedroom! "All done! I told you I could do it, human! I even get to join for and .barbie.girl for too! I'm ready to go anywhere now with for today!"

"Hold on there a minute Tawny" I replied. "You are a day late on our deal and three days late to join Chrissy .barbie.girl - that event is over".

"Oh, I'm sure she'll understand when she sees how hard I've been working" Tawny insisted. (Sorry Chrissy, she's very strong willed!) "Besides, I have to wrap up this with .c.p.i here on my yellow rug too!"

"But this shelf is right in the middle of your bedroom" I continued. "It's in the way of everything here. This can't possibly work".

"Problem solved! I saw that Betty built a purse closet for her dolls. You can ask her how, and then build me one", Tawny grinned.

"Has anyone ever told you that you can be kind of bossy?" I wondered aloud.

"Shame!!! You know darn well that the word is assertive, and I'm proud to be a strong doll!" Tawny scolded me.

I knew she was right so I didn't even dare mention the two cabinet drawers full of tiny bags that she hadn't even touched yet. It seems we have a lot of tiny stuff, and it looks like I've got some work cut out for me! At least we have lots of summer colours to join for here. Let the organizing begin!

Happy Wednesday dolls! 💛👜💛👛💛👝💛

A good handbag is a lifelong friend. – Michael Kors

Tawny and I had a little chat this weekend about the number of handbags she seems to be accumulating. I asked her if it was really necessary to have this many. I mean I know they're all cute and adorable and such, but this many? So we gathered them all together to decide if there were a few she could part with.

"None of the Barbie pink ones" she noted. That would be absolute blasphemy to my queen!

"And not the green one. It took me FOREVER to find this one and it's still one of my favourites!"

"I have to save fun ones like this paint can design because you never know when you're going to need them for a special event and when you get rid of them, the event always comes up immediately afterwards!"

"What can I say about houndstooth? Everyone has to own at least one houndstooth item!"

We really weren't making any progress at all. So in the end, we made a deal. If she can get all of her purses, organized and tidied up by tomorrow, she can keep them all. But she's got to find a space for each and every one. And keep in mind these are only the handbags. She still has a whole collection of Mattel bags, mommy-made bags and others she's accumulated along the way! Do you think she can do it? Stay tuned to find out!

Today, Tawny joins for with handbags, for and .c.p.i for with yellow on her yellow rug with yellow in her new bedding and pillows from too! Happy Monday dolls! 👝👛👜🎒🛍️

Joining my British Barbie Bestie, the fabulous Clare in her new sure-to-be-viral trend, "doll dungarees"! Following on the heels of the lovely Liza too! Special thanks for my cottage bestie Kimberly who gifted me these pink dungaree (or overalls as we call them) shorts last summer. I told you I'd definitely wear them!

Always remember, we spend every day of our lives in our own company. If we can't laugh at ourselves, what's the point of being able to laugh at all?! Happy Sunday dolls! 🩷

On vacation, you can wear all the colorful and casual clothing that you like, but you must always be elegant.— Christian Dior

These last few months have been extremely busy and just when I think things will slow down, they get busier again. I still haven't had a chance to post the rest of my vacation pictures from February, and I know I've missed a lot of events. These photos were taken last February and this is a re-post with a twist. I took the original photos and re-edited them in a different way because as soon as I saw that this month's with and was "voyage vogue" I thought of these photos featuring this gorgeous dress from ._creations_ and had to share them again! These are some of my favourite vacation pictures, and I absolutely adore this dress!

Do you ever return to previously posted photos and try editing them again to give them a different look? I like to do that to challenge myself when I've learned something new that I think could make them look better. We are learning all the time! Happy Friday dolls!

The significance of the cherry blossom tree in Japanese culture goes back hundreds of years. The cherry blossom represents the fragility and the beauty of life. — Homaro Cantu

I was gifted this breathtaking beauty silkstone Barbie by my daughter and son and their spouses a few years ago, and she was still pristine in box. I named her Ruby but I couldn't bring myself to unbox her. Knowing how long she'd been kept so perfectly in the box made it so difficult for me to end that. I know can relate! Sometimes it's easier to unbox a new doll immediately.

I knew I wanted to photograph her among the cherry blossoms one day, and I finally decided that this was the year. However, Mother Nature had different ideas. Our cherry blossom season is so short to begin with and almost every day of it was rainy, windy, or both. I got one day that the weather cooperated but it was still overcast. I had to work with that one opportunity. And here we are on the last day of May, so it's now or never!

I'm happy with the final outcome but it's not quite what I had visioned. Silkstones are heavier and more fragile than other Barbies, and the blossoms are so high that I would have needed a ladder to get to the best areas. I improvised by hanging a flexible doll stand in the tree. Swipe to the end for a BTS.

Am I glad I unboxed her? Absolutely! Did I get exactly what I had planned? Not really, but there is always next year! Who knows, now that she's free she may make an appearance every spring. After all, as the saying goes, life is a journey, not a destination, right?

Happy Sunday dolls! 🌸

Ruby joins for and for today.

Not all those who wander are lost. - J.R.R. Tolkien

Found: One adorable forest muse in denim and pastels…

Isn't it just like Fern to wander into the woods and effortlessly turn the trail into a runway? With his pastel layers, comfy beanie, and denim-on-denim vibes, it looks like he understood the assignment: masculine outdoor adventure, but make it fashion with grace. He's our perfect model for menswear muse today!

Fern joins and for by proving that trail style can still be refined. He hits the trails with yours truly for and of course he wouldn't miss a chance to join .mojo for (does hiking count as a sport for too?)

Heading into a beautiful weekend with we also join of course. Swipe to the end to see some of the early signs of spring that Fern spotted on his hike, and a behind the scenes! Happy Friday dolls! 🩵🪻💛

Redheads. We’re a limited edition of fascination. A unique & rare blend of awesomeness. – Stephanie Lahart

Dear Dolls,

It has come to my attention that my human somehow “forgot” to post my fabulous photos from Cozumel, Mexico, when we were there in February, so naturally I had to step in and handle the situation myself! Honestly, if a redheaded doll serves this much charm while touring downtown Cozumel, the photos deserve their moment. So in honour of with I’ve decided to take matters into my own tiny hands and post them myself.

Between the colourful streets, tropical air, local shops, and me looking absolutely radiant in every single photo, it truly was an unforgettable excursion. I brought glamour to every corner of town… you’re welcome, Cozumel.

Some dolls wait patiently for their humans to catch up… but this ginger queen believes beauty like this deserves to be seen now! And since it’s Redhead Day, this felt like the perfect time to finally share these lost vacation treasures with the world. My human collects souvenirs. I collect compliments, thank you!

Dollightfully Yours,
Tawny xo

Friends are the family we choose for ourselves. - Edna Buchanan

Family means so many different things to each one of us, and for Tawny and I our family includes our two very best friends who we think of as sisters. Tawny's sister besties are Rowan and River, and they have a "sister night" once a week to connect and talk about life. 💜

My two best friends are based on Rowan and River, and their dolly names were chosen by them! We also get together one night a week and only being away or being extremely ill prevents us from gathering. We've been doing this for almost 15 years now! Even during the pandemic we continued to meet virtually. We have also travelled together to many different places. One of our preferred destinations is to New Orleans. Swipe to the end to see a favourite photo of us taken there. This photo is filled with the warmth and energy of our bond with one another, and I feel that every time I look at it. 💜

Today we join for with family, and the with next month's homework, colour consistency. The goal was to have the dolls coordinate with their setting. My colour of choice is purple, of course! 💜

Shoutouts today to so many mini-makers featured here:with.love for Tawny's amazing NOLA sweatshirt - I won this a couple of years ago and I've been holding onto it waiting for our next next trip to New Orleans but I just couldn't wait any longer!
for Tawny's purple jeans
for Rowan's top and for Rowan's sweatpants

We also join for today. Happy Monday dolls! 💜
