I caved and ordered Chrissa with Gwen thinking that, if I was going to buy them both anyway, I might as well save a little by taking advantage of the Friends Collection discount, not to mention that shipping two dolls together is $25-30 cheaper than two separate lots of shipping would be.
I have to agree with all the others who said that Chrissa is not photogenic at all... I am sitting looking across at my doll and she is SO much prettier in person than I can show with my camera, no matter how much I fiddle with flash/no flash, lighting and camera angle.
I haven't really played with Chrissa's hair except for spritzing and brushing gently... she had some frizzies and short flyaway hairs when I took the hair net off.
She has the cutest tilt to her head.
I think her shoes are the best part of her outfit. There is nothing WRONG with Chrissa's meet dress, exactly. The fabric feels nice and the dress is quite nicely made: the skirt is even lined. It's just that it's ... meh. As others have said, it needs something... anything, really....more. Leggings... jeans even (I see one of the illustrations in the book has Chrissa wearing jeans under the dress). And the ribbon bracelet thing... WTF is with that?!
I think she should have had a bandana like the ones she and her friends made in the story.
I'm very glad I caved and bought her. If you are on the fence, as I was... go get her before she disappears
