Welcome to the forum Cabbage and to doll ownership.
I have recently got myself another girl, due to becoming single, lonely and anxiety raring up. She certainly helps with the company side of things.
Kacey gets a kiss when I leave the house, she is always sleeping (closed eye head) but have another head on the way with open eyes.
It's nice to have someone led beside you, that you can snuggle up to. All my friends have been supportive of me with her and keep asking for photos in her various outfits. She is starting to have more shoes then me! But then she is a woman I guess haha. One thing I will say, try to avoid dark clothing, as this can stain the skin (found that with my last doll). With tights/stockings, I purchased a pair of 40 denier nude tights, then can put sheer black tights over the top, works well.
Again welcome, from me and Kacey.
