The Legacy Day line is FINALLY available in the UK! I've been waiting to get my hands on this doll since forever! This is my third Cerise doll and I've been looking forward to reviewing her :)
Back of the box gives a lowdown on Legacy Day :) Not as imaginative as the back of the Hat-Tastic box, but I love that full-body Cerise artwork right there :)
The box art is pretty but they didn't give her red lips... :/ Still cute though :)
Appearance:
Hey guuurl. Cerise has made herself all elegant by sweeping her fringe to the side and styling her hair into a cute poof with a silver wolf clip. The rest of her hair is straight and is hidden behind her cape once again.
I'm not sure about her makeup though. The eyeshadow makes her look like a little animal... Maybe a raccoon? Just by how it's styled. And why brown? A smoky grey would have looked amazing in my opinion.
I like her red lipstick though :) It looks good on her :)
My favourite part of this ensemble is the fluffy hood <3 It's SO CUTE!! Promo pics showed it as being brown for a while. There's still brown in there but it's more grey, more wolf-like :) Her cape is now a long cloak and has the same branch pattern on it as the original cape. It has a silver wolf fastening on it under her chin.
Unfortunately I really don't like her dress :( I tried so hard to like it. All the other girls have amazing, big, detailed, pretty dresses and Cerise is stuck with this grey gingham, asymmetrical hi-low :/ The best bit about it is the lace pattern along the bottom :(
I also don't like her necklace, it just seems a bit too much. Although I do like her belt and her bracelets :)
In the promo picture she has tights on, but on the actual doll we are given these weird red leggings that I'm not a fan of :(
I like Cerise's boots though! I have some similar in denim :P They're a high-heeled peep-toe boot in black, decorated with black and silver chains. Very pretty :)
Accessories:
Every Legacy Day doll comes with their own Legacy Day book, a key to open it with and a hairbrush (shaped as a key, as always).
Cerise comes with a pretty little wicker bag :) I've been told it doesn't open though. Also not a fan of this, I would have chosen some thing smaller or a large clutch for something as special as Legacy Day.
I like:
The cape and hood
The shoes
Legacy Day accessories
I dislike:
The rest of the outfit :(
The bag
The makeup
Unfortunately this doll rates very low in my collection (I'd say on par with ClawVenus), when I first saw this line I thought Cerise would be doomed to have terrible clothes but Hat-Tastic made up for that :)
Excited to see where they go next!
