1983 Lovin' You Barbie

Lovin' You Barbie, originally uploaded by alington.

Here is a close-up of Lovin' You's adorable Superstar face. She's so friendly! (She's another doll from re-created childhood collection--I found her  used (and a great deal) from Joe Blitman.)

Plus, you can see her hair--an interesting dark golden blonde, almost a reddish color. I love it. I styled her hair in a wrapped ponytail for now, but I'm not sure I'll keep it like this.

I still need shoes and some jewelry for her. Plus I might rebody this doll--her legs have some pretty serious discoloration (spots and fading). But later. Her face is still adorable.

See the rest of her photoshoot on Flickr.

And here is her "before" photo:
