Holly Hepburn was the very first doll I could afford. I was desperate to start a collection but was unsure about Blythe because she is quite expensive. Of course once the addiction takes hold mere moolah takes a backseat to food, clothing and other ordinary needs. When she arrived it was love at first site and she very special to me. She traveled to Italy with us and had an absolute ball until she lost her arm. Traffic and pedestrian crossings in Naples is, to say the least, petrifying. Every time you cross the road you take your life in your own hands. We decided that if anywhere this is where Holly lost her arm. Once back on African soil I ordered her a brand new body with a tremendously ample pair of boobies. Unfortunately her little head was way to big for the body so for a whole month she sat propped up in bed. No one looked her in the eye anymore so she asked for a breast reduction and yet another body was ordered. This body fit but still her little head wobbles all over the place - she jokingly refers to herself as Noddy. Needles to say little Holly is by now very depressed. A 27cm body was ordered this morning and hopefully we will have more luck this time. I feel so sorry for her because she is so adventurous and fun loving. Hopefully the body replacement will arrive soon. Here is a bit more about Miss Holly our own Ms. Personality.
Colors: Rainbow colors but most of all pink, and especially cerise pink
Pets: A Garden Gnome named Hitch. He travels with her and loves posing for pictures. He requires no feeding and can hide in her luggage. He snores terribly and Holly pinches his nose to make him stop, usually he grumbles turns around and the snoring stops.
Likes: Telling jokes and funny stories, the way her tummy feels when she laughs, Juan's giggle, hiding behind things and surprising people, watching people open gifts, suitcases with wheels, no weight restrictions, anything first class, DK travel guides, friendly natives, limited foreign vocabulary
Dislikes: Knock knock jokes, fumbling around in the dark, people who don't return books, Rome airport, rude customs officials, waiting, grumpy natives, the dreadful exchange rate, a travel budget, food she does not recognize.
