Carla's New 'Do Before Settling In

Little Missmatched Artsy Girl "Carla" shows off her original loose ponytails as she browses her new surroundings in hopes of meeting new doll friends.

Carla's loose ponytails were okay, but I thought I'd add colorful ponytails holders that match her clothes.

She likes the new ponytail holders...

Carla said she knows she is going to like it here, too.

Little Missmatched Artsy Girl

Artsy Girl arrived yesterday. I immediately took photos of her in the box, then deboxed her for additional photographs.

Artsy Girl resembles Top Chef's Carla Hall

She's a tall (15-1/4 inches), slender girl who does resemble Carla Hall of Top Chef fame, as Male Doll World suggested.  The younger end of the target market (ages 6 to 106) will probably enjoy dressing Carla, I mean Artsy Girl in the extra boxed fashions.  These can be mixed and matched with the clothing the doll wears. At the time of my purchase, the Little Missmatched website only had one boxed fashion available.   Yesterday there were two and the dolls and fashions remained discounted from their original retail of $40 and $20 to $24.99 and $12.99, respectively.

One fashion pack supposedly makes up to 32 outfits.  That's a whole lot of mixing and matching. The fact that at least one piece is reversible adds to the many ways the fashions can be worn.  Different looks can also be created using the three pairs of socks included with the doll and the three included in the fashion pack.  3 socks, 2 feet, 1 you (as the motto goes for the Little Missmatched real-girl socks, which are sold in packs of 3 to mix and wear in different combinations).  Cute, right?

Her black rooted hair is styled in two side ponytails held with one red and one yellow rubber band.  A yellow ribbon headband accents the hairstyle. 

Carla... I mean Artsy Girl wears a multicolored polka dot tee, pink nylon pants, a gray jacket, mismatched socks, and black Mary Jane-style shoes. She came with a backpack, an extra sock, and a hairbrush.   Artsty Girl wears blue-framed glasses.  I like her better without them. 

She is jointed in the usual places (neck,  upper arms, upper legs) as well as extra joints for the elbows and knees.  The knee joints are quite flexible.  The wrists, unfortunately, are not jointed. 

She's fun, cute, and functional.

I like the name Carla better, so Carla it will be.

Take a peek at what's available doll-wise at the website now.

Little MissMatched Artsy Girl looks fun... I'll know for sure as soon as she arrives.  Uptown Girl was tempting, but I thought I'd be good and see how well I like Artsy Girl (currently discounted from $40 to $24.99) first.  I did order the one available fashion pack.

Additionally, since Little MissMatched is an ebates.com affiliate, I linked to the Little MissMatched web site through ebates for the 5% cash back.  I also signed up for Little MissMatched email notifications prior to submitting my ordered and waited for the email code, which qualified my first-customer order for a 15% discount, before submitting my order.

Tonner + QVC + LittleMissMatched Dolls Today!

LittleMissMatched Dolls by Tonner Toys (too cute in a mismatched sort of way)

I read the Tonner Doll Blog this morning... discovered that 1) there is a dark-skinned doll in the LittleMissMatched doll line (yea!); and 2) these dolls by Tonner Toys will debut on QVC today (September 8, 2011)  from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. EDT. 

I have not watched a QVC doll show in what seems like decades.  That trend will probably end today. 

Find out how to follow the live Twitter coverage of the LittleMissmatched dolls here.
