Fiorella is the definition of a hot mess. She looks like she got dressed in a thrift store with pieces thrown together from a shower curtain, a Spanish dancer, a street walker and a Cupie doll. What possessed the designer (Robert Best) to top it all off with two cutesie bows in her hair? He must be losing it."<br /><br />and another one:<br /><br />"Fiorella means little flower in Italian. Big mistake is more like it."<br /><br />It is from your previous post. And from your own admission here you "practically trashed the Fiorella Silkstone" which, I assume is the one from which I quote above. If I cause any offense, then I'm sorry. I only thought that you seem to dislike this doll so I'm hoping you would like her better now that you see her IRL.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10960634739350379936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-82559231085843746312014-03-24T21:58:50.146-04:002014-03-24T21:58:50.146-04:00I threw that 'wallet' away.

There is nothing I want on the website at a price I will pay even with the $20 off. (Which I look at as $10 since shipping will be in the $10 range.) Even the gift given this year (the credit card wallet) was a comedown from the dress forms.<br /><br />BTW, with the 17% added to the $20, the third science fiction doll would have been $42.25.

The "Russian" line has red colored boxes. As for the doll herself she is lovely and I do hope it will change (even if slightly) your opinion of her. I do recall you were pretty harsh on her, calling her a "big mistake". Anyhow she's a sweet thing and I can't wait to get myself one.<br />On an unrelated note, you might consider getting her sister the Dulci. (My nickname for her. Personally I call the Fiorella as just Fiore, LOL!) Between the two I like Fiore better but I do hear many people preffering the Dulci so would love to see your take on her..=)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10960634739350379936noreply@blogger.com
