Welcome to Is This Available? by Dana and Maria, our weekly blast about something we find on Facebook Marketplace.
Brooklyn, New York
I’m really sorry I had to see this but now I guess you do too. Eye to mouth ratio is something that can be so important for measuring cuteness, but this has simply gone too far.
All bodies are beautiful and I spent many of my formative years playing with big headed, big eyed, virtually no bodied dolls and stuffed animals, so I guess I might have once understood the desire to spend a high three figures on such a creature, but now I think I’d pay to never see this doll again.
That said, her outfit goes kinda crazy in a way that I respect. Bespoke Campbell’s dress? Avant-garde patterned leggings/high socks? Darling brown leather Mary Janes? The peek of a peach bloomer? Did she stop by Susan Alexandra for that beaded chain? D*mes Sq*are is quaking I guess.
I did a little searching for these “Blythe” dolls and instantly regretted my choice. For a doll with a namesake that means carefree, cheerful and pleasant – I beg to differ.
Hey siri, play Build a B*tch by Bella Poarch and let me get a break from dolls for a while. (shameless plug for our Barbie issue if you missed it ;) )
Dana’s miss of the week: my Bubbe would’ve disrespectfully hated all of that^. However, I think she would’ve gone absolutely berserk for this $100 metro card for $80.
