Barbie Beach Party Teresa Doll

The Teresa doll is beautiful. Her swimsuit has blue, pink, orange, and purple on it, with colorful beads on the top.Yes, she has big feet and her toenails are painted pink. She has brown hair, a side bang on the right of her face, purple eyeshadow, pink lipstick, and hazel eyes including a bright green color. I turned her nice packaging into a barbie surf board so fun.

I would give this doll a negative ZERO if I could. Not only are the feet wrong, they are hidden in the package under a brush. If a consumer thought to check the feet on a Barbie...they couldn't be seen. This is a fine Barbie if you never intend to use barbie shoes on her. The feet are giant, flat and wide. The Beach Party line all seem to be this way. I even tried to use the giant flat barbie sneakers...the hole in the top is too small for this dolls feet to get in. ....I haven't tried Ken shoes yet.

I bought this one at the same time as Barbie in a Mermaid Tale Doll (Blonde Hair / Pink Swimsuit) . I didn't have as many problems with her. Her clothes are snug, and her hair was kind of stiff at the top (but otherwise great). Some of it came out, but not too much. I didn't have to take the scissors to her, which is a win. She is has multi-tonal hair, which is beautiful. I like the detailed hands and feet. Despite this, she's still kind of so-so in quality. Even with that in mind, I like her.

My daughter received this doll for her 4th birthday, and it was her first 'Barbie' doll. At first, I was a bit unhappy - I had kept 'Barbie' from her, mainly because of her totally unrealistic, sexual(ist?)figure - the 60-20-40 super-skinny shape with the tiny feet permanently shaped for high heels - ick! So, I was happy to discover that the doll has normal-sized feet (with cute, painted toenails which my daughter loves) and a very nice but realistic figure - it made me decide that maybe 'Barbie' would be okay for my daughter, after all. Lately, I went to look for another and was excited - at first - to see a pediatrician Barbie. Until I saw her icky figure and bimbo feet - and the micro-mini streetwalker skirt she wears. I hope I can find other 'Barbie' dolls like this one, since my daughter now wishes to have more. [Revising down one star, as we've found it very difficult to find shoes for the doll's feet - since they're bigger and flatter than the original Barbie's. Also, the clothes fit a bit weird. I wish that the company would support this line of dolls better by creating more fashion for them.]
