50th Anniversary Fair Hair Doll




















I could not resist getting this doll.  I wanted
one when I was a kid but it was never to be.
I did pick up a rerooted one without the
hair pieces many years ago...but I longed for
the accessories.




















I really like her (the Mods are my
favorite vintage era) but wished her
hair was a little more platinum than
yellow and I really wish Mattel would
knock off the hair gel already!  I love her
dress and those earrings are just FAB...but
it would have been great if she had white
go-go boots!




















Very Scandinavian with the braided
headband.  I think it's the rosettes.




















Love the 'fall'.  So wanted a fall when I
was younger.....




It's a little thin in the back though.  Come
on Mattel a few more strands wouldn't
break the bank!




















The flip wig was always my favorite.
All the gel makes it like a helmet though
so will need to remedy that at a later date.




















I had trouble attaching the braid to her
because of all the GEL! 




















Here she is with my vintage reroot,
Stephanie.

All in all I am happy to have her.  She fits
in nicely with the vintage Mods.  Now she
just needs a name.......

  1. I agree. I don't understand why Mattel uses all that goo. And you so right. White go go boots would have been a great touch.

  2. She does look pretty great and I know how you love those vintage dolls. I passed on this one because of all the new Fashionista dolls I purchased!
