TheAGCollector101: September 2014

Today, I review Hat tastic Cerise hood! Sorry for no box photos, the box has been long gone. Enjoy!

Cerise is SO SO SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I love everything about her!

Cerise in all her Glory

Cerise was my first chance to get a new standard EAH stand. These stands have a clear post and waist piece with a black base. There was also a packaging difference, where the brush was in the bag with the stand instead of tied to the box. I like these new stands just as much as the old ones, though I wish they were a different color. Maybe a gold or silver.

The most standard brush ever.

Here's a better view of Cerise's wonderful face, with the headband. I hardly ever use the hood, as it tends to slip down alot anyway. Her bangs are gelled, which I find annoying, I wish the red streak wasn't so spread out through her hair. She has beautiful Gray eyes with sparkly eye shadow and deep red lipstick.

Cerise in all of her bountifulness.

Here's the headband up close. Mine came loose in the box but that's okay. I don't know exactly what it's supposed to be though. My thoughts? On one hand it's cute, on the other it's a really unnecessary addition to the outfit. I think she looks better without it.

Headband, back view.

Cerise without the headband. Isn't that better?

Cerise's hair

Cerise's hair is very nice. It's smooth and silky. The color is a black/brown with a red streak on the right. It goes down to her knees and I think it's so beautiful!!!

Earrings

I tried to get a pic of the earrings in her ears, but the camera wouldn't focus. Either way, here are the earrings close up. One is just a teacup and the other is a teapot pouring into teacup. I love these earrings, but her hair often covers them. They stay in her ears really well.

Here's her necklace. I like it, but I think more detail could have been put into it.

It's a nice match to the earrings though.

Here is Cerise with hood and hat. I really like her without the hood and hat.

Here's the dress. The hood is attached, which could make dressing her difficult for young children.

The dress has black trim&sleeves with a nice rose print on the bodice. I just love the little plaid skirt

that layers over the main skirt. The belt is nice. I could go without it, but when it's on it doesn't affect

the outfit that much.

Here's a back view of her dress

Here's the bottom of her dress. I really like this print, and it goes all the way around the dress.

Here's the front view of the belt. It is much better than some other belts I have

because it doesn't interfere with the stand. I also love the detail, they could have easily just left that paint off

to save money, but they put it on their anyway.

Here's the back view of the belt. You'll notice there are 2 plugs that fasten the belt.

Here are her hands. They are textured to look as though she has gloves on. I like these gloved hands, they look better than MH gloved hands. She also has wrist decorations, which I like.

Here's a close up of her hands and bracelets. I was quite surprised to find she didn't have a ring, she has the

perfect hands for us.

Here's her knee socks off her legs. (can you tell these are all out of order? Lol) They have small rubber bands to hold them on her legs, but they do little to help. I think EAH is really overusing the fishnet/netting here.

Here are the shoes with the socks. The shoes are great, but could be better. They do coordinate great with the outfit though.

Here's a side view of the shoes. I don't know what they're supposed to be.

Now, onto accessories. Cerise comes with a teapot,2 teacups and a purse. This is the teacup and I love how detailed it is! Yes, Cerise can hold all of her accessories.

Somehow, I got a battery stuck inside the teapot. This also shows that is can open up, which is a very nice detail.

Here are the two teacups! I just love the detail, the pattern on the plates. Plus, the teacups can come on and off the saucers.

Here's the purse, and it's the one accessory I don't really like. It's cute, but the outfit could do without it.

Here's the dress off the doll. It's really nicely made, and velcro runs down the back.

* NUDE DOLL PHOTOS BELOW,BEWARE*

She has this plastic covering under her dress. I believe this is so that her dress does now stain her body. I like it, my Apple white needs this, she always has weird stuff on her body.

Here's the back view of the plastic,it's made like a dress, so it's supposed to be kept on.

Here's her full body without the plastic.

A back view of her body

This pose shows all 10 points of articulation. *note* her hands can come off, but not her elbows*

And that is hat tastic Cerise. Overall, I would rate her 5 stars. I totally recommend that if you get just 1

hat tastic doll, get Cerise!

Bonus photos!!!

Also remember, yesterday was Emily's birthday!!! I made 2 videos on my YouTube channel, if you would like to check them out at youtube.com/theagcollector101 .

Here are all the photos I took yesterday. These photos will be going on a separate page on my blog.

Kaya's profile picture! I choose her not to be in her meet outfit because honestly, I like this dress much better.
Kaya is wearing the Jingle dress of today.

Marie grace and Argos! I took several photos of Marie grace with different props, but I think this one looks the best.

I had a lot of fun posing Marie grace, but you do not want to know the
behind the scenes of this photo, it was so hard to take.

My first time using a filter! I also did some major cropping,
I just wish you couldn't see the water heater.

Molly's basic profile photo.

Emily's basic profile photo.

Mini Julie. I didn't put her with Emily because then I would be typing
a paragraph about how mini Emily is actually Anna Clare's doll.

Lindsey! I absolutely love Ivy's romper on her.

Anna Clare! I think this is the most accessories I've ever had on her. Earrings,Glasses, hairstyle, purse...
I originally had a regular profile photo, but then I came up with this pose, so after
everyone was done, I went back outside to do a retake.

So yeah, I hope you guys like it!
