With Halloween fast approaching, Joan Threat is getting obsessed with her costume. She'll be going as none other than Joan Jett, more specifically, from the album cover of I love Rock & Roll. You can guarantee that she'll spend the next few weeks staring at this album in order to achieve at least 98% accuracy.



Kill E. Kapowski is currently obsessed with this Batmosphere mini necklace from Tatty Devine.A nice little Halloween accessory that you could get away with wearing year round.




After a long road trip alone and relying on audio books, Mess Demeanor is currently obsessed with Bossypants by Tina Fey. A touchingly honest look at the actress/writer/comedian's career path that deals with all the obstacles and BS with humor rather than resentment.




Stevie Kick is currently obsessed with this unique tee Dossier did with Rotter and Friends, inspired by a rare interview with rock-persona, Stevie Nicks. Some rock tees may come and go but legends like Stevie last forever.




Resident hairstylist, Scarlet Fever is currently obsessed with her new haircut! Channeling the ever amazing Patti Smith.




Snowflake is currently obsessed with with the first 2 issues of Garmento. A zine she picked up at the NY Art Book Fair, about designers who changed the way we look at fashion. It's making her train commute so much better!

Hi everyone, Snowflake here. I'm not sure if you all know this but I'm Canadian. So this weekend being Canadian Thanksgiving and all I thought I'd share with you a special family recipe for the most delicious stuffing you'll ever had.

Mom's Potato & Bread Stuffing

6 potatoes {you can also substitute one sweet potato)
1tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup of chopped onions
1/4 cup celery, chopped
1/4 cup red peppers, chopped
1/4 cup carrots
1 cup stale bread
1/3 cup vegetable broth
salt & peper to taste

1. Cut potatoes and boil until soft. Mash them up and put aside

2. In a medium flat bottom saucepan, heat olive oil. Add garlic, onions, celery, peppers, carrots and sautee until tender. Add mixture to potatoes.

3. Cut the stale bread into cubes and fry in olive oil. You can use the same saucepan that you were just using for the veggies. Add salt & pepper to taste.

4. Add both the potato mixture and the bread in a greased pan and bake for approx. 30-45 minutes.

I also recommend topping this with delicious mushroom gravy for the absolute best Thanskgiving stuffing ever! Enjoy with family, or if you're like us dolls and are away from family members, have all of your friends together for an orphan Thanksgiving.

He's everywhere. Is there anything more to say?

I remember him from my YTV days back in Canada. He starred in a show called Breaker High as the spindly nerdy kid who couldn't get a girlfriend. Well, a lot had changed since then...

FOX Sports Ohio is excited to announce the return of Blue Jackets Slap Shots, premiering Monday, October 10 at 6pm.

1.) How'd you find your path crossing with the Downtown Dolls...just how did you and the gang become friends?

I attended a fashion swap held on Joan Threat's roof. I also met Mess Demeanor and Snowflake at the event and I immediately realized these girls had style with a little extra bang.

2.) What do you do for work, play, extra-curriculars???

I'm a photo editor by day and at other times I do it all: shoot (photographs, not people), write for Brokelyn.com, see a whole lotta music, and never miss a brunch. I have a weakness for puppies (oddly enough dachshunds, same as last month's FOD and shiba inus), ketchup, British television, and lately, Pinterest.

3.) Tell us something quirky about YOU, that maybe even the DTD don't know.

I lived in London several times growing up and although I was born in Manhattan, I most identify with this European city. If that's not quirky enough for you, I'm also deathly afraid of fish.

4.) What's your favorite food?  Any excellent restaurants you and the dolls should hit up at some point in the near future?

I've been a vegetarian for over 16 years but I recently returned to a vegan diet. I absolutely love scouting out vegan spots, as well as vegan-friendly spots. I'm a big fan of The V Spot (also a fave of doll Snowflake) and the "chicken" teryaki vegan pizza at Vinnie's. Other favorites include Spring Street Natural and Stogo for a sweet treat.

5.) Being a FOD means rollin' with the dolls and throwin' down for the dolls.  If they found themselves in a bind and needed some backup, what weapon would you wanna be toting around with you...ummm just in case, ya know...the situation escalated?

I'd probably use some sort of nerdy and extremely cunning reverse psychology. That's sexy, right? In high school, I made a mural for our school with a huge peace sign and woven flowers throughout it. Need I say more?

6.) What's your favorite part of being a FOD?

These girls are the best. I have a feeling they'd probably have my back in case of hurricane, fire, famine, or flood. A little black eyeliner goes a long way in a crisis situation.

7.) What do you plan to do with your month long role as FOD OF THE MONTH?  Gloat to anyone and everyone?  Or just revel silently and bask in the "awesomeness" of knowing you're the DTDs fave FOD for October?

Whoa, well for now, I'm gonna sit here a blush a little. When that passes, I'll be out on the town celebrating Joan Threat's birthday and moving one block away from Mess Demeanor. I'll be borrowing lots of cups of sugar from that doll.

8.)  Any crazy fun activities you've got lined up in the near future that you're thinking the Dolls should join in on with you?  If not, no worries--we've got plenty lined up ourselves to invite YOU to.

Since I'm moving this month, and so many of the dolls live within walking distance from my new pad, I'm hoping there'll be lots of excursions to show me the ropes and all that. October also puts me in the mood to bake. Baking party? Finally, since we all have so much free time, I've always been dying to go apple picking and never have. I bet the dolls would slay a mean apple.

9.) Quick fire round...choose one QUICK

-movie theater or netflix? Netflix. (I wish I went to the theater more. I love BAM)!

-magazines or novels? Lately neither...but nerd-me says novels.

-puppies or kittens? PUPPIES! (I'm also allergic to cats).

-The Great Outdoors or Cozy Indoors? Cozy Indoors: this is Brooklyn. When I live in Colorado in a tent in the mountains, it will be the Great Outdoors. 

-cross country road trip or cross country flight? Road Trip. I've never done it. I'd like to do it.

I hope that quick fire round showed you what an indecisive person I am. Or not. Maybe I'm decisive.

 Another round up of our weekly obsessions!





After attending the Aveda Hairshow, Scarlet Fever has become obsessed with her career as a stylist. More importantly, the environmental responsibility Aveda takes in producing all their products. She was especially moved when she stumbled upon this documentary 2012 Time for Change.



Mickie Dagger is obsessed with these easy to apply chalk board decals. She's thinking of adding them to her kitchen in her new apartment over in Philly.



Joan Threat is currently obsessed with the Miss Dior Cherie perfume. It has just the right airy, crisp smell that she's been craving...and of course one of its top notes is none other than Patchouli, her fave.


Kill E. Kapowski is obsessed with the Death Cab for Cutie album, Narrow Stairs. She calls it the perfect soundtrack to walking around New York.



After a night of drinking at her friends house, Stevie Kicks found out about these cool photographs Pencil vs. Camera by Ben Heine. It's a photograph overlaid with witty drawings. Now there's some creative, eye catching art!



This is more than a weekly obsession but Snowflake just can't seem to resist a photobooth opportunity. Here, she's collected quite the gallery of silly pictures and is determined to cover her whole fridge.


Mess Demeanor loves this time of year for all of the squash that are now selling at the Farmer's Markets. Although she likes to experiment with all of them, she always goes back to her faithful Butternut Squash.

FOX Sports Ohio is excited to announce that “Game On Columbus” is the presenting sponsor of the network’s coverage of the Columbus Blue Jackets for the month of October.


“Game On Columbus” is a new, grass-roots collaboration created by the Blue Jackets, Clippers and Crew, along with the Greater Columbus Sports Commission, to ignite the spirit of hometown fans and raise "Columbus Sports Pride"

Yup, today is our prez' birthday! She spent all weekend partying it up in San Fransisco so we're holding out until this weekend to celebrate it Dolls style! You know what that means, The Gutter {the official DTD Dollhouse} & bowling!
