To start, I'm an adult doll collector, and have no children of my own, though I've often shopped for nieces, nephews, and niblings. I would absolutely buy this doll brand for any of them over the age of 4-5 if they wanted them, maybe younger if I knew they didn't put things that aren't food in their mouth.These dolls are high quality and truly beautiful.This is my second Latinistas doll, with my first being Lola, and I couldn't be happier to add Dani to my little collection of beautiful dolls! I expect I'll be adding more in the future. Getting her out of the packaging was a bit of a pain, and I really wish toy companies wouldn't put plastic stays through fabric, but luckily the stretchy material of her skirt doesn't have huge holes in it.Dani, like all Latinistas and their sister toyline, Naturalistas, is similar in size to other 11-12 inch fashion dolls like Barbie and the Integrity Toy Line dolls. They're at a price point similar to Barbie's Fashionistas line, but these dolls are a MUCH better quality than current Barbie offerings at the same price, and they're sturdier, too. Their heads are made of a harder plastic, so you can't do head swapping as easily (you'll need very hot water for that) but with each doll having her own unique skin tone, the only reason to swap is if you're putting her on a different body type.Dani came in a perfect box, for those who like to keep their dolls MIB, and was V E R Y well secured. It took me a little while to release her from her plastic prison. According to the box, she's an 8 piece set (doll, purse, shirt, skirt, two shoes... I guess the earrings are separate pieces?) and her face paint is seriously some of the prettiest I've ever seen even from high end, seriously expensive dolls. No pixelation here! I cannot believe I got her at the price I did!Proportions wise, she's somewhere between Barbie and Rainbow High/Monster High in sizing. She wears Barbie clothes fairly well (Barbie's shoulders are a bit bigger), but her larger hands and feet mean tighter outfits with long sleeves or tight non-stretchy pants won't fit well. Her feet are definitely larger than Barbie's, and more realistic in proportion, and girl has a little bit of muscle definition in her arms and legs, which I love. And best of all? She can stand on her own! She's currently standing on my desk as I type, in her cute strappy heels, and she's barely moving, while the Barbie next to her is wobbling even in her stand. Speaking of shoes, I can say from experience that her feet will fit Rainbow High doll shoes.Her hair is soft, a lovely rich dark brown that combs easily, and her make up is fairly subtle with just a bit of eyeshadow and a lovely warm brown lip.I don't know that I'd give her to a very small child without taking out the earrings first, but this is a beautiful doll any kid OR adult collector could love on for years.
