Fair enough point on the made to order aspect. I hadn't realized she was going to be one of those (yay!) and if the trade off for not having to pray for a miracle in order to get one is a higher price point, I shall keep my complaints about price to a minimum.

My biggest thing with the stripes is I think the color is too bright. Which is weird because it's one of my favorite shades of pink but taste is different for everyone, like you said. :) I'm glad they're doing different things so even if one thing doesn't work for someone, there's always a hope that something else will. This Rochelle doll though is absolute perfection. ♥
