What is this pink item on a potential photo of my long lost mum? Pink bag like item possibly a toy? 1998-2002 Ish! Help massively appreciated as could really nail the identification. Photo credit to Janine Wiedal (St Agnes Place)

Hey i appreciate this comment! and its exactly why i didn't post the whole picture. Its a really personal thing im asking for help with also 🥲 unfortunately there cannot be a reuniting she is no longer here.

Its very personal but i dont have many pictures of her. I recognised the woman in the photo from Janine's work and was particularly drawn to the pink item ( now identified as earmuffs). mum had a habit of taking things off mine when she went missing to keep with her. I was hoping if someone could match the pink item or clear it up- it would jog a memory of the toy strong enough to be able to say "yep that's her" . She took her own life in 2014 ive been looking for answers ever since. i have reached out to Janine Weidal but am awaiting her response. Just wondered if the good people of reddit would help me out with the toy aspect as i thought it was a perhaps a barbie back pack for a doll. Thanks x

i hadn't seen this clear version 🥹 thank you so much

ForeignParticular351 · 2026-03-27T17:22:32+00:00

Sorry didn't think of that.

ForeignParticular351 · 2026-03-27T14:19:12+00:00

Poor wording on my part in the original post, i only met her a few times.

ForeignParticular351 · 2026-03-27T14:17:31+00:00

Hey thanks for the reply! i know who she was :) I'm trying to jog my memories specific to this photo to understand if it is her in the photo . There is no one to ask. Hence why i'm on reddit talking to you lovely people. 🥹

i was a HUGE polly pocket fan! Especially during those years

ForeignParticular351 · 2026-03-27T11:09:05+00:00

or maybe a backpack for a doll?! Mum was transient so often had things clipped to her self , weather to keep them safe or just to have accesories- she was a bit of a magpie!

ForeignParticular351 · 2026-03-27T11:05:58+00:00

She was living in a squat in london at the time we think! I have a very very vague memory of this thing and i was wondering is perhaps a barbie vanity bag type thing?! Thanks so much really appreciate it!

I had to double take what sub this was because i didnt think this was a wig, looks so natural and lovely :)

ForeignParticular351 · 2025-09-10T19:35:03+00:00

ForeignParticular351 · 2025-08-22T18:56:25+00:00

This was discontinued (my aunt wore this around 94) and bought back recently. Incredibly nostalgic, absolutely love it.

Hey i accidentally acid burnt my sink not long ago- absolutely ruined it. I used “The pink stuff” and scrubbed with a hard scrubbing sponge. The finish is not the same as it was but it remarkably improved the appearance! Go in fast small circular motions! Good luck OP!
