17'' Rapunzel

My 17'' Rapunzel Review

I finally got my beloved Purple Rapunzel! She is so breathtaking in person! I got her for a very, very good price on amazon, so don't forget to check there if you are looking for her!
 Her still in the box, I love the design of the box, as it looks very elegant and you can see the doll very well. 

With the plastic off you can see the different fabrics that make up her dress. I know that the dress needed to be held down but I don't care for the look of the plastic tabs holding her dress to the bottom of the box. 

She has a very beautiful face and I actually love the rooted eyelashes. Her hair is very, very soft despite the gold strands, the only part that is not so soft is where they tried to pull her hair over, there is a lot of product here. In the photo above its above her right eye. 

The collar of her dress is so pretty, and I adore the lacing around the front. 

A close up of her torso.

This is my favorite part of the doll, I just adore the corset lace up the front! I also really like the pattern of the fabric and the rhinestones. 

The top of her sleeves are very poofy and super cute! It matches her character design perfectly.

The sleeve itself is actually two layers, the top being the rippled shinny fabric. Then they are lined with a sheer pink fabric edged in lace.

 A close up of her skirt.

Her brush is very pretty, but I still think she should have been holding a Frying pan!

The pattern and rhinestones on the inner part of her skirt. I love that you can see the flowers from the film in the design!

The chiffon overlay of her skirt is stunning!!! The details here are what makes the doll so wonderful! I also really like the little bead at the end of the bow that ties her corset.

Her feet and the bottom of her hair. I was a little disappointed here, I wish that they would have made her hair longer and draped it over the bottom of the box to give the illusion that it was endless. but over all very cute. 

The doll and her COA. I was pretty happy to get such a low number.

This is my favorite doll that I own, I highly recommend getting her if your debating it, you wont regret it.

Passholder Magic Bands Unboxing

Passholder Magic Bands Unboxing

I have been a WDW passholder for 2 years and today I am so excited to say that I received my Magic Bands. My husband and I got to test these out a few months ago when we stayed on Disney property and we absolutely loved them!! When we originally stayed on property we had the "default" grey bands, so I was so excited to customize our passholder bands. 

This is how the box looked when you open it up. I like that it says PASSHOLDER on the front unlike when you order bands when staying on property. 

The top of the box.

The side of the box.


I love how the bands are displayed in the box and how personal they feel. I forgot to photograph it but the names that are under the bands in this photo are also printed on the inside of the band itself. My husbands is on the left and mine on the right. I'm so glad they had pink!!

This charm was stuck under my band, it slides on to your band and is such a cute way to tell everyone that your a passholder! I was initially a little upset because there was only one but after shaking the box a bit I found there was another stuck inside.

After taking the top part of the box with the bands off.

The paperwork that is inside. I love how its stored in this cute envelope!

Apparently these are cards that you have to carry in addition to your Band AND Pass? I'm a little confused as to why you have to bring all three, I get that you have to have a card to get discounts so that cast members can actually see that your a passholder, but why these AND your preexisting cards? I'll ask this weekend when I'm at the park and update everyone then.

The box dissembled.

I'm am so super excited to have gotten my Magic Bands and I can't wait to use them on our next trip to WDW. I hope you all enjoyed this unboxing and as always, don't forget to follow me on facebook!!

Elsa and Anna March

Elsa and Anna March Edition

 I preordered these dolls in January and they arrived March 18, 2014. They are both stunning and LE 5000. I love how the boxes match, but I wish the design didn't cover so much of the dolls.

Elsa

Elsa is wearing her coronation outfit from the movie. The scene depicted on the back of the box is the church where her coronation took place. 
(Sorry it's a little blurry) Elsa's crown has 12 gems on it and is very accurate from the film. It is tied to her hair so it doesn't slip. 
Elsa has beautiful rooted eyelashes and several freckles across her face. She has cute bangs that actually look nice. (It seems to me that some of the dolls don't have as nice bangs. So I'm really happy mine did!) I also love the purple eye shadow here. 
Her cape closes with a snap at the top. It seems that the way she is in the box is pulling the cape so the gem wont stay in the center no matter how much I tried to move it, and I don't want to debox her. The gem itself is very pretty and changed colors with the light. Her cape is velvet on top and with a silk lining that come over her shoulders here. I really love all the gems that are on her dress here. It is very royal. 
The detailing here is just amazing!!

The rhinestone detailing on her gloves is beautiful!!
The best photo I could get of the bottom of her gown as the cape is covering most of it. Again the detail put into this is exquisite. 

I love her cape, my only complaint is that it could be a little longer and the shape is different from the film, but over all it is stunning!!!

I actually really like the design of the COA, the side view of Elsa is cute.

Anna

Anna is wearing her Snow outfit from the film. I really love the art work on the back of the box here. 
Anna has very long rooted eyelashes, I actually wish they were a little shorter to give her a more youthful appearance. I also wish I could get that one little strand of her bangs to stay in the front. Over all she looks very sweet and pretty. 
Her hat is attached to her head with a T tag. The material is like wool or something very warm and fuzzy, a perfect choice for the doll. 
The front of her cape has a lot of detailing, and I love the Heart closure. 
Beautiful detailing on the front of her dress.
A close up of the detail on her cape. Her cape is also lined in a pinkish silk.
Her tiny knitted gloves have little rhinestones just like Elsa's. Also here you can see the detail on the cuff of her dress. 
The bottom part of her dress is velvet with a purple silk under skirt. 
 A close up of her boots. I love them sooo much! (Again sorry its blurry)
Her COA




I am very happy with the dolls. They really are beautiful and I love them so much
