I really love my adopted Dianna Effner Little Darling. I have been gawking at pictures of these dolls for such a long time. I thought they were amazing in photos but too pricey for vinyl dolls. Now I see the reason for the price. The quality of these dolls is amazing in person too.
The skin tone is so realistic, it is not noticeable that she is a vinyl doll. She looks like a porcelain doll I had, which was also made by Effner. My doll was made in 2013 and retains her lovely color after all this time.
My Little Darling had no name on her tag. I have named her Josie.
She has such realistic proportions and looks like a real little girl. Her wig can be changed to make her a little more customizable. This next picture is me next to Josie. I was never considered to be a little darling though. I remember my mother would get upset when family members called me little devil.
