Integrity Toys do beautiful dolls with good
knees and real eyelashes. But ouch, the price!
And then Mattel launched the Barbie® extra,
with much better knees. So that was that then.
This curvy girl came with hair down to the
ground. I cut it. I did keep her very long plaits,
tresses, which is how she got her name. What I
would like is a really funky short style on a curvy
doll. She also came with really ugly clothes and
a pet ugly dog.

Allgone impossible
hair.
Her hair was
originally down to the
ground. I don’t know
why they put such
horrible hair on such
lovely dolls. I like the
glittery strands. I cut
it myself. My
hairdresser advised
me not to change my
day job.
New clothes needed.
Ugly outfit and worse
jewellery. What is that
plastic overskirt
about? Give me some
time and we’ll fix
both. Especially now
that we have a style
personality and a Soft
Autumn colour
palette for her.
Her 26 June arrival puts her in
Cancer, a cardinal water sign ruled by
the Moon.
What style personality does that
suggest? Certainy nothing like what
she was wearing when she arrived!
The Moon influence suggests
feminine, flowing garments in colours
that reflect the moon’s glow: silver,
white, soft blues.
Style would be a classic and timeless
silhouette, tailored pieces with soft
lines, elegant accessories. Cancer
likes to feel comfortable and secure.
No pushing clothing boundaries here.
Soft, warm neutrals like taupe, cream
and warm greys blend Soft Autumn
and the moon of Cancer well, with
soft, warm yellows like butterscotch
or muted golden hues. Soft, dusty
rose tones, muted pinks give the
emotional warmth Cancer
appreciates, while muted greyish-
blues and soft-warm teals align with
the water nature of the sign.
