MGA Lalaloopsy Sew Magical Mermaid Doll - Coral Sea Shells

First of all, I bought this one in the store for my Ellaloopsy for just over $20 at Walmart, so I'd recommend shopping around and price checking on this beauty. When Ella first saw her she absolutly fell in love with her as she loves Lalaloopsies and Mermaids; even I thought she was by far the prettiest of all the Lalaloopsies I have seen thus far. The online pictures just don't do her justice. Partly, I think it's the clothes, her mermaid tail is so shimmery and shiny and beautiful, it's just exquisite, and with the way it catches light in person it's lovely, on film it doesn't reflect that quite as well. She also has a super cute one-piece bathing suit she can change into for "human-form" for at the beach, pool, or bath tub. I love that it is a very modest, innocent, little girl, one piece bathing suit and NOT a bikini. Then she has red hair and it's done pulled in low back piggie tails with a light-blue bow but changes to a pretty purple when wet, which Ella loves! Ella hates bath time, what kid doesn't? But ever since she got her mermaid lalaloopsy it has been SO much easier getting her into the tub lately! She always takes her tail off, she seemed to understand that was made of "better material" and even though she was a mermaid, she needed her swimsuit on to get wet, lol. She really liked that she came with a fish pet, too, to go in the tub with her, and named him Flounder, of course. Definitly an adorable set and must-have for any LaLaloopsy/Mermaid fan, my little girl loves it and it makes bathtime at our house a lot easier! As far as water, I was worried about it "collecting" in the large loopsy head, so I warned Ella just not to hold her under or anything (lol, you should have seen the look that earned me, as if I thought she was drowning her babies when I wasn't looking, how dare I suggest such a thing?) but it doesn't seem to collect anything so far and the body is solid. Whatever does get in drains completely, nothing runs out when I pick it up after it's dried out.
