Barbie Fashionistas Glam Doll

Finally: Mattel has created a playline Barbie which is actually posable! She’s got bendable wrists, knees, elbows, of course at the hip and neck, and I think another joint at the torso. While the joints aren’t real pretty to look at, this doll is exceptionally fun for my six year-old daughter to play with. She can sit on chairs, ride a scooter (yes, even in her fancy dress), make all sorts of fancy modeling poses–just like a more expensive collector doll. Plus she has a very pretty face, and her hair is just gorgeous.

Her dress is cute, too–and seems to be well-made. The little white “fur” cuffs are a nice touch, and can be moved up or down the doll’s arms to create different looks. Her jewelry adds extra glitz–my daughter really likes it–and her shoes are adorable, too. She also includes a clutch purse, which is a fun little accessory. Of course, we’ve already lost it.

I need to add a note on the packaging: A+! We were able to get the doll out of her packaging without damaging her hair one a little bit. Her curls look just as pretty in real life as they do in the promo photos. Bravo, Mattel!

We’ve only had the doll a week, so I can’t tell how durable the doll will be. The joints are all feel pretty sturdy, but they bend easily enough for my daughter to pose herself. I think we’d definitely love to add others to our collection.

This doll is like the Cutie fashionista in that her legs are not quite as flexible as the Girly doll, but more sturdy. I love her accesories- the beautiful clutch purse, the faux fur cuffs, necklace and earrings. Her hair, like most Barbies nowadays, looks like it needs a good washing, but a brushing-out helps. Her dress is very pretty, but ‘bedazzled’ as some would say. Still, like most fashionistas, you can buy it for less than $10 at other stores.

I purchased two of these beautiful Barbies, to give to two of my great granddaughters for Christmas, their ages are 6 yrs. old and almost 4 yrs. Since Christmas is still a couple of weeks in the future, they have not received them yet. I did not know that the legs and arms were jointed when I ordered them, if it was mentioned in the display on amazon.com, I missed reading that fact when deciding which Barbie to buy. However, I think the little girls will like that feature, since it is different from their other Barbies. They are really pretty dolls and the clothes are beautiful.
