Spring has definitely sprung here in New Jersey, with temperatures creeping into the 80s and lots of flowers everywhere. The beautiful weather makes me eager to get back outside with my dolls, and that's on the agenda for next time, but today I want to share a review that I've been meaning to write since September of last year.
During one of my random browsing sessions on Amazon, I found a big-eyed fashion doll that I'd never seen before, from a South Korean brand called LULUPOP (also written "Lulu Pop"). The LULUPOP dolls are based on virtual K-pop idols, so there are a few full-length songs and music videos featuring the animated idols. From what I understand, the dolls used to be available exclusively in Korea, but they made the jump to Amazon about a year and a half ago.
I'm always fascinated to explore brands from other countries, because they often have a new aesthetic or offer a window into a different culture. In this case, the aesthetic looks very familiar, but the songs and videos definitely offer up something new and fun. So, with high hopes, I purchased one of the girls, Tania, to see what the brand is all about:
