More Fresh Dolls!

 Hey Gang!

I've been stocking up on the new Fresh Dolls! I purchased the boys on their website and Walmart but wanted to see the girls in person before purchasing them.  My first purchase was Carissa!

My doll
Some people who purchased her said theirs had a longer neck doll. They said that they made their purchase from the website. The one I found at the Target near me,  and it didn't.  
After watching Dr. Lisa's video introducing the new dolls, I noticed they all had longer necks and smaller heads. The dolls I saw in the store had a variety of neck lengths. Also, she didn't look as yellow on the websites as in person. Both Ian (male doll) and Carissa have a yellow cast on their skin. She is a hard match for a body with a longer neck using Fresh Doll or Mattel. I purchased another eBay doll with a longer neck, and I am happy with her. So now I have a doll with a short neck and a longer neck!
Someone recommended the Mai as a replacement body but she wasn't a good match. The two doll's faces are slightly different.

Carissa is giving me old-school Christina Aguilera vibes.

Next up is Rock the Bell Ebony

I thought the Rock the Bell Ebony would have a long neck and a small head. She had a small head and a short neck. Bummer!

Rock the Bell Ebony and the Wave #3 Ebony dolls. As you can see the head size is different. It is harder to see that the neck length is different.
She has a soft print top. The print isn't as clear as I'm used to seeing. It looks blurred. 
She has light blue/gray jeggings with a graffiti print. 
The sneaker's quality isn't what we are used to seeing from fresh dolls. They are more like AliExpress doll sneakers.
Bodies side by side.
The before...
After the head swap!

Next up is Aniyah!

My doll!
When dolls are this dark, it is hard to get the lighting just right with the glare from the packaging.

Out of the box!

She eats the light but she is beautiful! I love her crisscross romper.

I just can't believe how beautiful Aniyah is! I would like a more articulated body but am unwilling to trade it for a less bootylicious body.  The looks Barbie #10 is a possible match but slimmer.

Shown with her fresh friends!

Aria, Aniyah, and Lynette

Next up is Keisha!

I got this girl at Roses for $7.00!

Since I already have a Keyshia in Johnson, I have to give this girl a new name.  I am naming her Raylene. She is the sister of Lars. 
The dress is a little tight and the doll can't stand because of it.


Fresh doll fashions!

Coat and pantsuit.

Scrubs and white kente set.
Top and skirt, orange top and overalls skirt, and purple top and white pants.


OK, Thanks For Looking!

Fresh Dolls Lynette!

 Hey Gang! 

I have had my Fresh Dolls Lynette since about August of 2017! I thought I shown her when I purchased her but it seems I had not! She is one of my favorite dolls around here even though she hasn't gotten much blog time! She will be taking more of a role this year.

Promo Photos!



Like I said Lynette is loved and has a storyline. She has a love interest- Lars!


She is a student

Completing her business degree!
I saw the Fresh Dolls has a new body design with a longer neck.  The short neck of the first of Fresh Doll  was an issue. The dolls did not have the elegance that they could. I wondered if the new body could give my Lynette a more elegant look? So I purchased The new Lynette!

Head Shot!
Many have said that this doll head isn't fully rooted like most of the Fresh dolls.I would say that it is true of the my purchase!

I thought that both Lynette doll's body would be the same complexion but they are different!

To compare them, they are in complexion like SIS Kara and Chandra.  But the head complexion is closer.
The neck knob is very different. I don't know the reason for the change. It doesn't give the head more articulation.
Close up of the neck knob
The head is a lot larger that the first dolls and probably larger that the Fresh Squad. I am hoping they don't make their heads larger!

My Lynette rebodied! She looks wonderful!

Much more graceful looking!
Lynette: I even feel better!

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Working on the Project!

Hey Gang!

It way past time we checked back in on the University!  If you have seen the previous post, here is the link!
Darien: I want each group to work on their project separately at home on Google Docs and then work together as a group.



So the class broke into groups to work on their group project. The older students 
gravitated to each other.

Jose: I work a twelve hour day on Tuesday's. I won't be able to meet with you on that day
but any other day will work. 

Lynette: I am good any evening! Keyarah what about you? 

Keyarah: So I work the weekends and weekday. I am only available nights and I have a 
daughter and may need to get a sitter. I will need to know in advance. 

Jose: I have a family too Keyarah, so I know the challanges! The fact they we can do this on Google
Docs will work for me.  I am normally up to 10:30 and up at 5:30.  So I will check for new item before I go to bed and when I wake up!

Jamie: I like doing research!  I will be glad to handle that part of the project. 
Morgan: OK, I really good at writing. Soo if........
Emily-Ann: I think we can make this really interesting!  We can start by brainstorming
ideas!  

Phoebe: That sounds great!  I'll write it all down for now but we can do the rest  of our brainstorming on Docs.
 Darien went around to all the groups to see how they were doing and to answer any questions.
Darien:  It looks like your group is progressing well!


Ms Leo: So gang one of the clubs I belong to is working on Google Docs. It is my first exposure to it.  I am finding it interesting thus far.  I'll let you know how it works for us.

OK, Thanks For Looking!
