My wonderful boyfriend had been hiding something from me. For my birthday, Christmas, and our Anniversary, he told me that his original gift idea fell through, and that what I was receiving was a back up. When I asked, he said that he needed more time because things needed a little more work. I had no idea what he meant. It turns out that he had bought a Blanche that I had been watching on e-bay. The problem was that the seller had not disclosed, or, more than likely, transit had taken its told and Blanche had two broken wrists. He enlisted the helped of my friend who also collects, and took it upon himself to repair her before giving her to me. I had no idea I would fall so entirely for Blanche. She's gorgeous! I already have plans for her and a new wig on the way, but for now she's rocking a bad girl look, and doing it rather well.

Meet Laura. Forgive the picture quality. It's 10 degrees outside, and this is the second shoot. I accidentally deleted the first round.

She's wearing a spare wig of mine, and looks really great in it. Her face up is amazing, and works better than I would have thought with casual clothing. She makes me squee

Laura is a straight edge girl. For her, this means no drinking, smoking, drugs, or meat. She thinks animals are too cute to eat, and has a little pig as her pet. Her dream is to own a farm where she can take in rescued dairy cows.

I'll have to remember to buy her some re-ment salads

@Miss Edith
Laura's going to be a redhead too! I'm glad to hear someone else has done that. I'm assuming she looks good as a redhead then?
@Bloodstained
I loved her so much, I was afraid to take her wig off. It was all frazzled, but now I just kind of wish I had taken a picture of her fist. I've already straightened the wig out and plan on boil perming it to get the curls back. I was also so touched that he had bought and repaired her that I asked his permission before I took her wig off. He told me he had been planning on me doing that and it was fine. Her really is a sweetie and a total keeper.

She's lovely!
Question about her jacket, though. Did you shorten the sleeves on it, or is the body you have her on just long-armed enough for it to fit her properly? I tried to put the same jacket on my Kaela and her arms were swimming in it.

The sleeves on the jacket are long. I just smooshed them up for the picture. I actually spent some time pushing them up her arm and then holding it there for a while. If you look at the top picture though, it's still long on the arm that isn't held up.
