I got my #26, Coral, in the mail a few days ago and she is absolutely beautiful! I just love the Addy mold with medium skin and her unique eye color. I've been wanting her for the longest time and I wish I would have gotten her sooner! I give her an A+, although I'm not sure how well her wig would hold up to a child's play. Here are some photos: With Addy to highlight her eye color: And a closeup, just for fun:

Grade: A+ Immediately upon seeing Isabelle's Scrunch Pants, they became one of my favorite items in her whole collection. This style of pants has become so popular simply because they are so comfortable, and AG certainly made them stylish as well with the sequins on the waist. The pants are very easy to get on and are very well made. I usually don't like sequins on clothing items because they tend to fall off very easily, but as the other reviewer mentioned, they seem to be attached securely. I love that AG included these in Isabelle's collection and to me they are well worth the $12. Pics:

Grade: B- Isabelle's Practice Top was not something I had intended on getting, but I ended up getting one anyway after seeing it paired with her scrunch pants. While I do like this top, it is very flimsy and is definitely not worth the $8 I paid for it. It seems like something that even a child could easily make. It is made out of a stretchy material which is nice but there really isn't much to it. I like the yellow/lavender combo and it definitely does add variety to my collection, so I do not regret the purchase.

Grade: AI absolutely adore this sweater! It is definitely something I would wear. The moment I saw it in the catalog, I knew it was coming home with me. This sweater is such a beautiful coral color and it looks wonderful on Isabelle (and all of my other dolls, too!). I love the little thumb holes in the sleeves. The fabric is a little scratchy, but it is not too bad. The only thing that I don't love about this sweater was that it was $ 14, but to me it was worth it to have this piece in my collection.

I got my Marisol Christmas '05 from my grandmother. She was my second doll. I got Kirsten in '96, so huge gap there. I had always loved Kirsten to bits, and couldn't imagine getting another. When I saw Marisol, I instantly fell in love with her. Getting her is what sparked my interest in collecting, which I have been doing passionately ever since. Marisol is simply a gorgeous doll. The Josefina mold works beautifully with her features, and the medium skin tone with brown hair is quite striking. Although pictures don't quite do her justice, here is a photo of mine: Overall Grade: A+

I got my #25, Loralai, on my thirteenth birthday in August 2006. She has been well loved but is still in great shape. I absolutely adore her! In my little world, she is half Vietnamese, half white. However, she does look exactly like my cousins who are half white, half Mexican, so she can be molded into any race you want, which is what I love about her. I love the brown highlights in her wig, and since mine still has the Pleasant Company neck stamp, I love how her head doesn't tilt down. :P Anyway, here are some photos. :] With my #35, Bailey. Note the difference in face tilt.Overall Grade: A+

Sonali is such a gorgeous doll, with an equally adorable meet outfit. I adore her face mold (despite the mentioned ear deformity) and love her silky hair. Her huge brown eyes make her very inviting and friendly looking. Her hair is very easy to take care of. It is not as curly as a curly haired doll, yet not straight. It has the perfect amount of wave. Overall Grade: A+

Chrissa is a gorgeous doll- with blue eyes that pop in contrast with her dark hair. Though beautiful, her wig isn't the best quality, and isn't very flexible when it comes to styling. She looks great in most outfits. She photographs easily, but it is nearly impossible to capture just how beautiful she is. Overall Grade: B Doll: A Meet Outfit: C (it is hideous in my opinion,doesn't have much to it) Wig: B

This doll was given to my little sister as a "look alike doll" cerca 2003. Though I did not like her at first (bangs aren't quite my thing), I have grown quite fond of her. She looks adorable in braids, and her green eyes are quite different. Here she is: Overall Grade: B Beautiful doll, but not my absolute favorite.

This is by far one of my favorite dolls that I own. The only downside is that I am petrified of playing with her, as her hair is so beautiful and delicate. With that aside, the hazel eyes with the medium skin is a striking combination. The back of her wig to show her curls. They are so gorgeous and tight!Brielle and Lanie comparison shot. Both gorgeous. Brielle's curls are a LOT tighter and bouncier.Overall Grade: A- because of the easy-to-mess-up wig, which makes playability and hairstyles difficult.

My #35, Bailey, is a very cute doll. I absolutely adore her coloring- the brown eyes and red hair compliment each other nicely and create a very sweet look. She is comparable to #25, but with red hair. The wig seems very similar in that it is a tad slippery and doesn't hold many styles well. Bailey with my #25, Quinn.The back of her wig. Seems to be a lot fuller than #25's.Overall Grade: A Beautiful doll. Not so pleased with the more orangey red hair, but it is beautiful nonetheless.

Out of my fourteen dolls, I have to say that Kanani is my absolute favorite. The combination of her face mold, skin tone, hair color,and eye color are just stunning. Anyway, here are some comparison shots. One thing that I will say is that her hair can get tangled VERY easily, but other than that, it is just lovely. I have my Kanani's hair in braids at the moment, just to keep it from tangling. Kanani and my #44, BrielleKanani and Marisol. Their hair is actually slightly different in color, though you cannot tell by the photographs.Such a gorgeous doll.Overall Grade: A Doll: A+ Meet Outfit: B
