I just got my Rebecca in the mail and... I am super iffy about her! I got her to celebrate my new job. I am also usually so excited to play with a new doll's hair, but yuck. Rebecca's hair is dry? Or oily? Sleek and yet straw-like? I can't quite figure it out. And it's a mess. I pulled it back so I could get some decent pictures of her. I definitely (sadly) intend to rewig her with an older-style one.
I like the look of her outfit and her accessories add something to her look. The barrette is the usual cheap plastic and will stay in her purse to keep it safe. The jacket is really cute with velvet accents and lovely buttons, and the underdress can easily be worn with other matching jackets/tops. Her purple velvet shoes are also lovely, but I prefer the pre-BF boots.
I have a love/hate relationship with her satiny hat (I feel like book-Rebecca would never wear that?).
Also, I ordered the "real" Rebecca book series unabridged and illustrated so I can get her complete story. I don't intend to read the new abridged version because I've heard it leaves out a lot of important information.
On the whole, I give her a C. I was really hoping for better quality (as we should) and not to have to do a wig-swap. I'm no longer near a store or I would have loved to pick her out in person!
