I loved this doll when I saw it in a store last January. It was so summery and cool so I wanted to wait to get it in the summer to get the full feel for it! Now I have it and this doll is so lovely, one of the best out there and great value price. Okay some people think the tan makes her look ugly. But once you get her out the really cool box you get used to it and it looks good. Her hair is brown with Blonde streaks and Highlights, it's really cool! I love the shade of brown they have used. For a value doll she has some nice accessories. She has hoop earrings, Sunglasses, Necklace, lace bandana and even a cute yellow sweatband. She really is the best doll of 2004! She wears a yellow and red bikini bra top with red flower centre, which ties at the back. Red shorts with white stitching. A nice feature is that if you look at the top of the shorts you see what is supposed to be the bikini knickers! But it's actually part of the shorts cleaver but misguiding! This Barbie is really fun and you can spend loads of time brushing her hair! Shame she doesn't come with her own brush and as all dolls do she looses hair easily. Anyways this doll had nice details and everyone should get one. I wish Mattel would invent a new way so Barbie's hair doesn't fall out as easy. But that's not just for this doll it's the same for all dolls sadly.
Basically this doll rocks! She?s great value and has a really cool, box which I just had to keep. She?s nicely packaged and really fun to play with, grown ups would enjoy this doll too as it?s a lovely piece of work :)

I'm 13 years old and was looking for barbies with my friends...haha yeah i know it sounds funny but this barbie is the coolest one that we have found!!!

Cali Girl is my favorite. I like that her fashion jewelry can't come off.

I think it is cute how Barbie is getting this whole new image and "dumping" Ken. it really shows how mattel is growing. i also think that this change can be seen from a negative view as a positive one. the whole idea of barbie, is that she is a girl, with the perfect life, with the perfect boyfriend ken, and with just about everything a little girl (as well as a woman i mean who oesnt want all the things barbie has?!!!) could hope and dream for her future life. mattel has made a fortune on selling these type of dolls to girls around the world, but changing her, to fit a beach lifestyle, dumping ken for this new blaine guy, and having a completely new image of herself isnt that great, because little girls have loved barbie, ken and the whole happy famil, but changing ken for blaine can tear apart their dreams of ken, barbie and baby chrissie forever! i mean, everyone nows barbie+ken= baby chrissie, bu now it's more likke barbie+the perfect guy (ken)=DUMP HIM
this may be giving the wrog message, or it may be just a cute new doll with a cute new image. LOL

Just received my Cali Barbie and Cali Ken and love them! Makes you want to get out in the sun. They are both sporting tans, have cool sunglasses and jewelry, and their attire is so much fun...fun 'n the sun!

Barbie has gone prep!!It's so stupid!!!It says in the retarded commercial that she has new "hotties" crushing on her.Do you really want 3 year olds learning that kinda stuff?Plus, she has a fake tan with bleached hair and too much lipstick.Whoever buys this doll is getting a rip off.Since when does Barbie surf?It's okay if she's a teacher and a doctor, but a surfer?Come on.Mattel is trying to make Barbie "cool".Can we please have the regular Barbie back?When I was little me and my friends played with Barbie because we liked to dress her up.Now it's gone too far.Barbie used to be a fun toy for little kids and it should stay that way.Now they're trying to make it appel to older girls but remember, the little kids are watching.If they see their older sister get that Barbie, they'll want one too.This Barbie is a horrible influence on little girls and hope you don't buy it.

I think the Barbie is really good and enjoyable even though i am ten it is sutible for any age and all of the little ones i bet there having an execlant time because i have a great time

This doll is so(...) wonderful! My friend Tiphanie gave me this for Christmas and I absolutely love it!

This barbie is the BEST!!!! Her clothes are so cute! Dhe is so durable too. my dog tried to chew up the doll but it didnt even break! Its a great doll

Cali girl wouldn't be the word i'd entitle this doll. Maybe something like Hang tan Barbie or Beachbum Barbie would've been more appropriate. I have a few complaints about the doll she's just too dark almost as dark as the Christie doll. Second her hair doesn't really work almost ragged especially the coloring that was used. On a good note I like the design on her eyes which is wide and big. The shape of her body is also a plus and she's cheap. Personally if ur looking for a cheap yet decent looking doll out of the "cali girl" line I'd purchase her and maybe rename her SHEENA. I bought one anyways b/c of those factors.
