AVON Exclusives
I am having a very hard time trying to find pictures for these girls so I just took my own. My mother sells Avon so you can guess how I got a lot of these... :-) Thanks Mom!
1995
Winter Velvet Barbie - My mother
bought this one for me from Avon a long time before she started selling it. She
saw her and knew I would love her, and how very right she was.
She is the first in a Winter Series that I don't know a whole lot about because
until I got her I didn't even know Avon sold Barbie! :-) From what I see there
are 3 in this series and I have 2 of them.
1996
Winter Rhapsody Barbie - Second in
the series, very cute! A friend of mine bought this one for me to go with the
first one. Pink and Black goes so well together! :-)
1999
I saw
this one on EBAy ( a place I try very hard to stay away from due to large
amounts of spending!) and just had to have her. Goes well with all the other
winged girls I have. :-) Hey I didn't know her Dove sings!!! Must try that one
out... It does! It does! It really sings... How cute! I have had her for 2 years
now and did not know that! I do know that she comes with the cutes little
inspiration cards. The one I like says "More precious than gold are the friends
you treasure". Cool huh?
Angelic Inspirations Barbie is
a radiant golden vision, created to inspire you to realize your own dreams.
Graced with a whisper of angel wings, she is truly glorious in her glittery gown
with its billowy overskirt and roses at her waist. Her cascading golden hair
with its ribbons and roses frames her sweet face. Her eyes are full of promise.
With your gentle touch, Barbie doll's dove "sings". It balances on her hand and
your fingertip. Inside: Angelic Inspirations Barbie doll brings four messages of
inspiration on purse-sized cards for you to read and to share with the special
people in your life. She comes in an enclosed special edition box.
2003

Dressed in their most exquisite finery, the guests of this year's celebration gathered in the grand ballroom. The partygoers enjoyed a 5-course meal, dancing, and, of course, the company of friends. "It was a fabulous event. Everyone had a glorious time," said Barbie, who helped coordinate the annual event. "It becomes more sensational every year. The location was exceptionally lovely." The richest of reds, the designer gown worn by Barbie was nothing less than spectacular. The flourish of it's gold-tone filigree added drama to the ensemble. Her neckline was exquisite. Her stole, fabulous. It was truly a gown and ~~a gala~~to remember!
I have the blonde and the brunette in this one. I wanted the AA one too but couldn't swing it. Oh well! I will have her sometime! :-)
2004
It
is Hollywood's Golden Era, and the world-famous star of the silver screen,
Barbie®
has just arrived for the premiere of the movie,
"SWEET ROMANCE."
Barbie®
doll's glamorous look is timeless. Her golden gown is pure sophistication.
Shimmery and sleek, it is finished with a dramatic full flare. Her gold-tone
shoes and luxurious white stole and classics. With her tickets and program,
Barbie is ready to enjoy her latest film. But first, whe smiles warmly, then
waves to the crowd and signs an autograph or two, giving her fans even more
reasons to cheer "hooray.
I have the brunette in this one. She just looks better as a brunette! The only thing better would be if she was a red head... :-)
2004
Exotic
Intrigue™ Barbie® doll invites you to a place of pure perfection. An
intricate gown in rich shades of burgundy and coral features rich golden
embellishments. A faux flower graces one shoulder while an oversized bow
completes the gown’s back. The striking upswept hairstyle is held in place with
golden sticks and decorated with another flower. Long, golden earrings complete
the exquisite ensemble.
I have the "Hispanic" version of this one like most of them. I could not have picked any other one as far as this one went. She really looks more Asian than Hispanic. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! And no I have not taken her out of the box yet! :-)
2004

Talk of the Town
This one is adorable! I have the brunette which Avon considers Hispanic, weird... Anyway... I fell in love with her shoes. I know that is different but she has the cutest shoes! They are black with the white ribbon across the top and a bow. And of course the fact that she has a dog you just can't resist! :-)
