Beauty in the Buff

Beauty in the Buff

Caitlin and Danielle are thrilled for the summer months ahead in Chicago. Although most places experience summer, it’s very hard to capture the essence of a warm sunset stroll along Lake Michigan, or an exhilarating jog on the 606 if you haven’t had the pleasure of enjoying it for yourself.  Longer and warmer days mean bathing suits, shorts, dresses and most importantly – CONFIDENCE. Caitlin and Danielle have partnered…

Beauty of Love

Each month allows Caitlin and Danielle to share more love with the universe at the Dollhouse. As every Doll knows, the month of February is extra lovey… Maybe it’s because of Valentine’s Day or maybe it’s because of National American Heart month. Either way, Caitlin and Danielle don’t mind the heart shaped everything during this time of year. They also don’t…

About

Once upon a time... there were two best friends that lived in a Dollhouse. That's where the story began. While the pages of this digital storybook keep turning, one thing remains the same. Caitlin and Dani are by each other's side through the ups, downs and all the realness in between.
