thanks!! those glasses are from the red-haired hi-glamm girl. i like how they have the separate color frames painted on. sometimes i call her "i wanna be a geek" instead of iwbb - haha. and she sure dances like a geek (ie: as bad as me).... hmmm... i should learn better posing.
PS: it occurs to me that barbie glasses could be painted, carefully, with plastic-appropriate paint (paint marker?) around the edges, and this would look just as good. because it's fairly hard to find the ones with the frames that are already painted. i only ever saw these and like 2 other pairs that i think came with dolls or outfits i didn't want.

yeah i have seen mixed reactions about kurhn sneakers. (i think they look kinda rockabilly(?) but i am not sure.)
i like them a lot, but in the publicity photos (before seeing the dolls) i thought i would hate them. a lot of kurhn stuff is better than it looks in photos, actually. even though the 2 sellers i know have pretty good (ie big) photos available.
i guess the shape of these glasses is different from barbie ones. i hadn't noticed it until re-looking at some of my own closeups - lol

She's awesome Ashbet! Her hair looks so natural looking, is it a reroot or did she come like that? It just looks a little fuller than some of the others and so shiny.

Thanks, Etiana! <3
This is her original hair -- hasn't been washed, although it has been brushed. She originally had some product in it behind the front section that held the style down, but I think it's worn off over the years. I think it's cute the way it is (I like the "boof!"), so I've left it alone and just gently styled it into place with a wire brush if it got mussed.
Maybe it's because she has never worn her hat?
(I wish I still had it -- I wound up giving it away with a load of toys when I moved, just before I got into Momokos again! I'm not a baseball-cap person and was never going to use it on any of my dolls, but I would have at least tried to give it to someone on the forum rather than to Goodwill!)
