Presents For Me With My Gift Card!

 Hey Gang!

I purchased a few things for me! It was time and these things were items I wanted to purchase for a while. I earned a gift card and used it for these dolls!


Ken fashionistas doll #184, 

Hispanic males are always a good add to my collection.


 orange cuffed pants, white deck shoes.
He has brunette cropped hair, floral Hawaiian shirt.
Close-up!

Out of the box the clothes are well made.  The back of the shirt is printed too.
He is as handsome in person as his promo photos.
The pants are a little high water but they still work.
The sneaker are the basic Ken sneakers.
He has the basic five points of articulation. 

Warning nude dolls!

I looked at a few bodies but the Cheerleader body was the best fit.



Next up is Big Dreams Big City Brooklyn!

She has a wonderful outfit that includes a silver-checkered top and denim skirt!
When I saw her in the store I thought she was very cute and I thought she used the 
Fashionista "Kim" headsculpt but I was wrong about that! She is a new headsculpt.
Her hair and baby hair edges offer a great look! 
There are four or five version of Brooklyn. Some have the top knot and some have her 
hair down. It had me wondering if the hair was braided different for the up and down doos.





 

OK, back to this doll! She has a very cute purse!
I was OK with everything except these jelly boots!  Mattel, who wears jelly boots?
Turns out it is a thing too! Jelly shoes/sandals and boots are in for 2022! 
Bright color jellies are a way to add color! The suggestion is to wear them with socks!
I guess that means sandals and socks are OK now too!
I want to get the Lyla doll in this line too!

I think she needs boots the color of the purse to  make it work.
The boots up close.
In promo photos the top know is done better than it is in person! They should have used a black band.
I took her hair down and it is pretty full and the baby hair is cute!
Full in the back too.
Brooklyn on a petite body! I think  it works for her!


MGA's Dream Ella-Yasmin doll!

"I am a doctor Yasmin fashion doll". This is how the package read.

She is Barbie size...well at least in height.

Close-up! She has a sweet intelligent face!

The doll includes scrubs uniform and stethoscope.



Out of the box....

She has the five points of articulation at the arms and legs.
They move up and down and to the sides.
Here head moves side to side but not up and down. 
I like her hair. It is long and crimped 
and pulled back from her face. 
More pictures of her hair to come.
There is a lot of detail in her top.  It is form fitted.



She has white pants and sneakers.

The quality is great on the pants and they are similar to the Fresh Doll pants.
Her hair is very long!  You can see the crimps in the photos.
From the back. Her hair is past her hips.

So lets compare her body to a few other dolls! Here head is not as large as some and not 
as small as others.
Tiana, Yasim and Olympic 2020 Skateboarder-my Amber Rose
You can see here that Yasim's head is larger.

Now looking at the bodies (  is on a MTM Curvy body) the body is thicker than 
some doll but not as much as others too! 

She is thicker than my Chang'e
Wild Heart body 
Her waist is as small but not her hips or breast.

Thighs and but are smaller than Wild Heart body
I thought when I saw her in the store that her body would be close to either Fresh dolls
or Pretty Girls but it is different.  Her waist is smaller than fresh dolls with a more
defined waist.  
Her torso is not as long as the pretty girls. Her hips are some what
smaller than both.
With any doll body Feet and shoes for them can make a difference. 
So lets look closer at the feet.
Her feet are closed to Chang'e feet.  Debbie of Black Doll Collecting told me 
Yasmin can fit first wave Monster High doll shoes.

Yasmin has more of and arch to her feet than Wild Hearts Crew dolls
Fresh doll, Yasmin and Pretty Girls feet.
Fresh doll body and Yasmin body! They are somewhat close.
The neck knobs are different.
On Fresh Doll body in her original body she looks pretty good!
It won't close in the back though.

OK, Thanks For Looking!
