Birthday Doll--Meet Mallory!

So my birthday is coming up and my husband was kind enough to buy me a doll, which arrived yesterday during the snowstorm! She's a Volks SD-Midi Noa White Skin Limited. Her name is Mallory. She came with the standard pajama set, but her wig is a soft pink, and well-suited to her face-up.
Noa is one of the current Volks Standard SD-Midi's, but for a short time, they offered her and Mia (one of the SD-sized standard dolls) in White Skin. Noa is actually the most popular of the current SD-Midi standards, but I preferred Hina (who I got for Christmas in 2018). I didn't particularly like Noa at first.
It's funny, but Noa didn't appeal to me until I saw her in White Skin. I don't know if it was the face-up that changed my mind or what. It's like Bella, my SD-Midi F-43, which is the same sculpt as the discontinued standard Mako/Dai, but in White Skin and a nicer face-up. Sometimes that makes a difference as to whether a doll appeals to me.
With all the winter storms lately, the light hasn't been very good for pictures at all. I've got a light-box that I need to set up and we'll see if that can help!
