Kira Doll and Meet Outfit

[SarahK]

Kiera doll and book $110

”Kira is thrilled when she gets to spend a month at her aunt’s Bailey Wildlife Sanctuary in Australia helping care for koalas, wombats, and kangaroos. She’s always loved caring for animals, but it’s not all cuddles with cute joeys. When the baby wombats escape and there’s a predator on the loose, it’s up to Kira and her new friend Alexis to attempt a midnight rescue in the Australian bush!”


”The 18“ Kira doll has green eyes and long, wavy blond hair that can be brushed and styled. It comes styled in a half-up twist with long loose curls.
A tie-dye tank top that ties in the front and has embroidered decoration on the shoulders
A green pleated skirt with buttons up the side
A pair of brown lace-up boots that are tough enough for bushwalking
A pair of purple socks
A purple wraparound bracelet
The Kira Down Under paperback book”


She is a cutie, but not many dolls I don't like so she gets an A from me. I think she needs some freckles and a new unique eye color would have been nice. She is close to Julie but I found her different enough to justify adding plus I really wanted her cute meet outfit.

Kira has a nice wig, not thin, not too thick. I'm sure there is variance doll to doll, however. I think Julie's wig is the same color. Her lips are pink, a nice change from the orange tone they were using for awhile. Her eyes look to be the regular green, but Blaire's green does appear lighter to me, not sure if it's the lighter vinyl playing tricks.

Love the meet outfit. The skirt/shorts material is thinner than I was expecting, but it's not bad, I was just expecting a twill type material I guess. the boots have a nice thick rubber sole. Will try and get better pics of her meet outfit

Eta after having her a bit I do wish the shorts/skirt was a heavier twill because they do wrinkle easily. I think they are suppose to resemble that lighter hiking material I see used a lot at rei but I don't like that they wrinkle so easily.

The bag is the launch giveaway. I got there just before closing and the give away wasn't out like usual so I figured they had ran out but as I was leaving a very sweet sales lady got me one from the back.

She does look similar to Julie, but I much prefer Kira's feathered eyebrows over Julie's line eyebrows.  I have not taken her hair out of the meet style yet, but overall her wig seems decent.  Not super thick, but not thin either.  I do really like the curls/waves in her hair.  

I really like her meet shirt.  The designs near the shoulders are actually embroidered and the material has a nice weight and stretch to it.  The skirt is pretty light weight, but has the double layers with the shorts part and the skirt overlay.

Her shoes are nice.  The soles are made of a thicker rubber material and have a feel that really resembles the bottom of a shoe.  I feel like this is an area that AG sometimes cuts corners on so it's nice to see some decent shoes.

I almost missed the bracelet in the box!  It was behind the book in the plastic holder part.  The bracelet wraps around twice and then there's a small silver bead that you poke through a slit in the band to attach it.

Same here, the feather eyebrows give a much sweater look.

As for her meet outfit it's awesome! I'm glad I got it. I love your kangaroo bag!! 😍

I cannot help but totally fall for the one with the red hair and freckles!!! 😍 🧡💚💙
