    well think i’ll get kirsten!

  2. Winter Wish says:

    Selena-

    Her name is spelled Nicki. You were pretty close.

    ~Winter Wish :)

  3. Winter Wish says:

    I’m sorry. But Nicki has light-brown hair. Once I saw her in real life. That means there’s only 2 or 1 blondes… if you would count Gwen as one.

    ~Winter Wish

  4. Lena says:

    Nicki’s hair has been described as both light brown and dirty blonde by people who have her. I’ve seen her in reality too, and I’d say her hair is dirty blonde.

  5. priscilla says:

    there is technically 2,gwen and kailey.

  6. priscilla says:

    well,my cousin has nicki,and i’d say her hair is reddish brown.

  7. Lena says:

    See? Different opinions on her hair color.

  8. Selena says:

    *shrug* I say Nicki (thx winter wish!! I always spell it dif. lol!) has carmel colored hair like her description!! haha i don’t think she’s a blond…
    BOUNA NOTTE!!!!!

  9. Starr says:

    My neighbor has Nicki and would definitely say she has dirty blonde (and very curlyl!) hair. Of course, my opinion. I wonder how AG described her in the catalogs?

  10. Starr says:

    Oh, never mind. Carmel. :)

  11. Holly says:

    i agree. i have her 2. her hair is a dirty blond w/ carmel highlights. ive ordered the jly that i wanted(chinese w/ bangs), but i have no idea wat 2 name her. do yall know any creative names for her? thanks

  12. Holly says:

    o btw priscilla, if u take her braids down, u have 2 brush her hair everyday 2 keep it nice and pretty. i recommend u spritz it w/ water 2 occasionaly.

  13. Holly says:

    i finally came up with a name… caroline rose. actually, my dad came up w/ it

  14. Winter Wish says:

    You’re welcome Selena! Oh, and yeah, I gotta agree with the caramel hair thing.

    And, Lena, you are right- there IS something wrong with the hair thing… ONE REDHEAD is what’s wrong. And, green eyes! Like one doll has green eyes!

    ~Winter Wish

  15. Selena says:

    i would ;love another redheaded historical!! Felicity is hardly a red head – almost a brunette!!! I still think Nick has carmel colored hair!! lol my (all of) BFFs have her.. but I’ve only seen them.. not very long!! I just agree w/ AGs magazine subscription lol!! OH!!!! I’D LOVE A HISTORICAL W/ NICKI’s HAIR!!!

  16. Lena says:

    But Winter Wish, that’s how the world works. Out of nine dolls, one should be redhead, two blonde, and the rest brunette.
    There have been a few redheads, Nellie, Mia, Emily all have red hair.
    There are too many blondes in my opinion.
    Ya know what I’d love? A Redhead with Kit’s eyes.

  17. Lena says:

    Oh, and the old Felicitys are redheads, they changed her hair color when Mattel took over.

  18. Holly says:

    that would b so pretty lena!!! and mayb a few freckles…

  19. Lena says:

    No freckles, just the darker blue eyes, Felicity wig, and original face mold.
    Oh, and one with 25′s wig and Kirsten blue eyes…..

  20. Lena says:

    K, LJ updated with news on custom dollies.

  21. Holly says:

    i just read it. ur very creative lena. i write poetry and short stories… ur work is quite amazing

  22. Lena says:

    Thank you! I’m writing the next chapter now, so I’ll be posting it later.
