Tulip Time at the Arboretum

Hey! It's Sydney. Today I have a photo-shoot of me that was taken at the Bartlett Arboretum at Tulip Time. If you would like to see all the other posts click *here* (That is the link for all of the posts, so if you want to see the other posts you will have to scroll down because this one will be first). You will be able to see all the other photos we have posted so far.

I decided to post these pictures because everything seems dull and dreary now that it's winter.

Enjoy!

(These pictures were taken before I had glasses)

I took the bike and rode around the arboretum which was so much fun!

Tulips!

I love all of these pictures!

Nanea's Holoku Dress

Hi everyone! It's Katherine here today with a photo-shoot of Nanea for you! Enjoy!

The dress that Nanea is wearing is called a holoku. It has been worn in Hawaii since 1820 and is associated with  Hawaiian ethnicity.

Even though the holoku is of Hawaiian ethnicity, it's not as widely known as the mu'umu'u which is regarded by non-natives of Hawaii as the Hawaiian dress. 

This dress was from an adaptation of an American day gown that originated in 1820.

The holoku is now considered formal wear instead of every day dress.

A couple pictures of the train of the dress because it's so pretty!

Around her neck Nanea is wearing a maile lei which is a lei made from maile leaves and worn for special occasions.

Did you know the history behind the holoku dress? I didn't, so I researched it.

Did you find the information interesting? Would you like to know more? Let me know, and if you do I will do another post. 

Which picture as your favorite?

~ Thankfulness ~

Hello everyone! Anastasia here. If you celebrate it, I hope everybody had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Today I have a throwback picture and a small post.

We didn't post on Friday just because we were too busy celebrating Thanksgiving on Thursday and didn't have time. 

I wanted to say that I am thankful for many things, and one of the things that I'm thankful for is you! All of us here at A Doll's Life are thankful for you the reader. <3

Do you celebrate Thanksgiving?

What is one thing you're thankful for?
