Hello.
It has come to my attention that January 2026 requires an announcement. I dislike announcements. They interrupt my naps and encourage enthusiasm. However, this one is unavoidable.
The Ellowyne Wilde Subscription Box for January 2026 will be revealed on Friday, January 16th at 10:00 AM MST.
The outfit is called Blue Tea For Two.
It is vintage.
It is refined.
It comes from Gwen’s closet.
It was designed by Sybil Connolly (no relation — though I will allow the coincidence).
Now.
That is not the main issue.
The actual issue is the add-ons.
There will be an ALL NEW Ellowyne Wilde doll available at the time of the reveal.
Yes. Ellowyne herself.
Her name is The Traveler.
She has rooted auburn hair, worn long and softly waved, as if she has just returned from somewhere important and did not feel the need to explain where. She is dressed sensibly yet stylishly — boots suitable for cobblestones, layers chosen with intention, and an expression that suggests she packed carefully and left early.
She carries what appears to be a basket. Do not assume it is decorative. It may contain letters. Or books. Or opinions.
She is limited to 195 dolls. Five of the original 200 were reserved for Robert Tonner’s archive, as some things are meant to be remembered, not sold.
She is the first of six in Robert Tonner’s Dark Academia series.
She looks like she knows the difference between traveling and wandering.
The reveal video will include an in-depth look at the doll, allowing you to properly assess her tailoring, posture, and general preparedness before pretending you are undecided.
Also — and this is important — 2026 marks the 20th anniversary of Ellowyne Wilde.
If there were ever a respectable moment to indulge your Ello habit, this would be it. I see no ethical objections.
Following the reveal, at 11:00 AM MST, the following will be available in the Ellowyne Wilde Boutique:
Ellowyne Wilde: The Traveler doll
Two coordinating add-on dresses
A custom-made umbrella (she does not require rain to justify it)
You may watch the reveal.
You may shop with composure.
Or you may insist you are “just appreciating the craftsmanship.”
I will know which it is.
Regards,
Sybil
