Tangerine Dreams, OOAK PomPom Kitty Helmet & PomPom Poofy Onesie Romper Set by RetroChickDesign.

Laura @ RetroChickDesign creates the most exquisite helmets for our Blythe dolls. They are hand knitted, hand felted & hand decorated with embroidery silks, vintage flowers & beads. They fasten under the chin with a beautiful vintage button and judging by the elaborate details and the poetic names they all bear, there’s no doubt these are made with love too !

I have written before how those big heads just seem to have been made for hats, bonnets, helmets, or whatever your imagination can think of… Now, at RetroChickDesign there is definitely plenty of imagination for those helmets are made in a great variety of colors, and browsing through the sold items of the shop I don’t think I’ve seen two alike !

Bear Buddy for Blythe by Jack + Hunter @ Etsy.

I want that Buddy Bear so bad, I believe the right term should be “so good”. He’s the most adorable I have seen in a long time !

It’s not very hard to find amazingly beautiful & sophisticated stuffed animals, but I love the “amateurish” side of this one. I love how it’s a drawing on top of some fabric, how it’s not symetrical, how the face is perfect and how the oversized boots are just killing it !

You can see I have a big crush on that one. Plus he’s literally screaming at you to adopt him for Liv aka Jack + Hunter put a ridiculously low price on him. I mean it’s really, really low. Really.

Hat for Blythe Doll by ludmilac.

You know how Blythe dolls will always look cute with about any hat ? Well, they will look even cuter with a beautiful bonnet. Here’s one no woman could get away with, yet it feels just perfect for that pretty girl.

And I so love the photo of her Blythe lying on the (plastic) grass alongside her pink teddy bear that I have also included it.

Handknit Bobble Hat for Blythe by Petit Tricotage.

Petit Tricotage makes amazing sculptural hats. They would no doubt belong to the same category as those of Megan Talarmo (megipupu), so definitely not your ordinary Blythe doll hats.

Besides the funny and so interesting shape, I really love the colors of that one which she describes as having :

shades of yellow, light red, dark red, and slate blue twining through it. The almost solid, mustard yellow provides a warm contrast.

And about the shape she says :

The hat gets its signature look from the bobbles at the ends of its two ties and the lone, perky bobble standing straight up on top of the wearer’s head.

Listras e Estrellas by Marcia Martinho.

When it comes to Blythe clothes, Flickr is probably the best resource there is and I discovered this beautiful turquoise set by Marcia Martinho in the fashion dolls * style pool.

This dress and hat are really fresh and cute especially in that wonderful turquoise color !

Rainbow Dress for Blythe by SugarDoll.

Spring is (almost) here and I spotted some very nice candy colored items for Blythe @ Etsy, so I’ll start a series here with this marvellous Rainbow Dress by SugarDoll.

I also very much like the white dress she has in her shop :

All in White.

It’s actually a very short dress, she’s listing it as a long shirt.

She can make those dresses in other colors. And as is more and more common among Blythe lovers, she also makes knitted items (dresses, hats…) for Lati Yellow dolls (see picture after the jump) or for Pocket Fairy dolls.

Dark Red Hat by MyPoppies.

I’ve been wanting to write something about MissBlythe Store ever since I started this blog, and reading in the newsletter today that the MyPoppies hats were on sale, I thought this would be the perfect time to say what wonderful work Patricia Carvalho is doing with this website.

Patricia is the administrator of Blythe-Europe, the European forum dedicated to Blythe dolls, she lives in Portugal and opened MissBlythe Store about a year ago, around May 2008.

No doubt I’ll write more about the shop later but for now, let’s just say that the clothing section, besides Sugar*Mag, Takara Tomy and La Boutique de Lupi, has some beautiful knitted hats by MyPoppies.

I love love love this dark red one, it is definitely my favorite one but on the whole they’re all very beautiful.

And did I mention but they’re on sale and really affordable too…

Orange Hat for Blythe by Feltland.

I’ve always liked Feltland’s wool creations. They are very delicate and full of taste and while her choice of colors may rely a bit too much on the soft pastel side for me, still she regularly manages to surprise me.

Like tonight, with this hat.

I am so totally in love with that hat, with the color of that hat, it looks like fresh orange juice – it’s one of my favorite colors you know – it’s amazing how it is as if this hat was made for me…

It’s simple & beautiful and perfect really.

Crocheted Hat for Blythe by megipupu.

Megan @ megipupu updated her shop today with sweaters and some of her gorgeous crocheted hats. Love the colors and shape of this one !
