These dolls won't get off my mind. I'm obsessed. I know it. I remembered a magazine I looked at several years ago called Haute Doll. It had seemed so beautiful to me with the variety of fashion dolls and paraphernalia that make up the hobby of collecting them. They featured Barbie and Tonner dolls, but I thought I remembered ABJDs as well. Now that I was getting into this craze, I thought it would be perfect to subscribe. (I've always enjoyed magazines and the idea that they show up in your mail every month or so. There just aren't that many that I love enough to really commit to. I subscribed to Nintendo Power back when I had my second job, but had to give it up when i went back to school.)
But Haute Doll just barely, seriously like last month, ran its last issue. However, it kind of joined another doll magazine, Fashion Doll Quarterly. I was willing to commit to Haute Doll. I wasn't sure about FDQ. (And that website just doesn't look very professional to me.)
Unfortunately, the Borders where I live went out of business several months ago, so my bookstore choices were severely limited. I couldn't just go take a look in order to decide if I would subscribe. So I waited until we visited back home and went to Barnes and Noble. Took a while to find it hidden beneath all the scrap-booking and cross-stitching magazines, but I quickly decided it was just what I wanted.
