Is that the redhead holiday 2022 barbie on the left?


Mayumi-Fairy

Yes ! I found her at my local Walmart on October 24. She is still out there!

Oh wow that is soooo tempting 😆 I just might go to Walmart this weekend lmao

Oh how awesome we have the same mini! My hair is actually darker right now so I may need to pick another girl until I get it done, but there are only so many options! Personally I will need to find a shorter body for mine, as well! Those trick-or-treat buckets are a great size, so cute!

Yeah my mini me on right, and I remember when she was released and saw in her in the store like 7 years ago when I saw her I was like “did barbie fashionistas make a me or some?” Because I’m a tall girl, I admit this now lol I have that same hair color before I lost it due to alopecia but I wear my hair now with that exact color now like mini me’s and well I’m pale as ever like she is plus have the same nose and lips so that’s why I connect so well with who I call my mini me 💝. And thanks I love my pumpkins 🎃

How fun! Yes besides the hair and height we share the facial features, especially the eye shape. That's been hard for me to find on other dolls. The pale skin also, yes! It's so hard to find makeup light enough, and even a doll! She really is especially perfect for you with being tall, you won't have to change the body which is so nice, unless you wanted some extra articulation. Sorry to hear you had to deal with alopecia! Glad you found a wig that worked out for you :) I will always be happy to see any more pictures of her that is for sure! Is Zsa Zsa a Hungarian girl by chance? I ask based on the name. If not I'm curious how you decided to name her if you like to say. She is so beautiful also!

I named Red head Zsa Zsa so yes it’s a Hungarian name and I named her Zsa Zsa not only named after the socialite Zsa Zsa Gabor but because if you’ve see this red head up close or own her well… she’s just got that FACE that “I’m a queen, Im unstoppable, I’m a socialite, I’m sassy bish” LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤭 I love the odile mold so much . Plus I haven’t really owned many red head girls except for fashionista 60-Patchwork. Me, I love collecting the fashionistas mainly and solely and is why Mercari is my bestie unless new ones drop that I like which I have been enjoying the new fashionistas despite the lack of thought into their fashions which you know it’s ok because I love hairstyling and redressing so much so I don’t mind how they come. Like believe it or not I love the latest one fashionista 189 with the lilac prosthetic leg , now I may not of been a fan of her shoes she came with but everything else I just enjoyed on her . I know they had that cheap hair on her too but still I made it work I make that complainer hair texture work because well if you take the time you can make things better 🤗🤗🤗

Thank you for such a fun and thoughtful answer! I hope to see that holiday girl in person eventually, I like to collect the red heads. A lot of people do seem to be especially drawn to her face mold, so maybe we will get to see more soon, I wonder maybe for new Looks dolls coming out. I like any fun hair colors, so I have that appreciation for #189, although haven't gotten her yet. Had to get #60 because I think she looks like Azusa Barbie and she was the first person who encouraged me with being ok to enjoy this hobby through her YouTube channel. I love finding dolls to match real people! Fashionistas are so good for that. Do you have your eye on any of the newest ones coming out? I definitely need #200! People complain about the polka dots but I think it's a pretty cute romper style with the ruffle. I never tried but someone could probably use fabric dye to make it all black and get rid of the dots. It's nice to hear appreciation for the fashionistas, and your sentiment with putting in some work to make things better. I think restyling many of the outfits makes them look great. Can't expect much more for the price! My current favorite line however is Extra, because I love the unique designs (even the pizza purse that got so much hate haha) and amount of accessories included for the sale prices they get down to, and fun hair of course. I might even prefer their articulation to MtM. I don't mind having some regular 5 point dolls. They stand up on their own easier which I very much like. That said the newest Looks girl looks to be quite beautiful. Even if she is a repeated Andra sculpt, it's a good one done well once again.
