Heart Family Mom. I've wanted one of these for some time because I don't have this sculpt and I think it's really cute (Jazzie I think it's called? There's one called Heart Family mom but that's a different one). She's not exactly in mint shape: a couple of locks cut, slightly greasy face, and her skin tone is too pink for the fashionista body I put her on. She's staying for now, though.
Compare: Sparkle Fairy Barbie, which according to KattisDolls has a modified Carnaval sculpt.
I was going to try and put her on a Simba Super Model body, but unfortunately she has the smaller neck hole so I'm not sure it'll work.
According to the Internet, this is Dramatic New Living Barbie Doll (whew!). She came in her original swimsuit, which was very worn and had stuck to the melting plastic of her shoulder joints. Apart from that she had no broken joints or major damage - the body is terribly dirty, but nothing that can't be cleaned up with some Twin Pines 911 and a bit of elbow grease.
Honestly I'm not sure how this happened - I used to actively dislike Mod era Barbies! But then I got that Ballerina Barbie for her dress, and then I thought I should have one with better hair, and now that I do I'm starting to wish I had one with brown or red air... take warning, kids, this is how an obsession starts. Anyway, she was cheap, and like Gabriella she has a hairdo that almost looks like that of a real person. Also, her rooted lashes are a lot better than the LITD and Style dolls' are.
Sorry, Cali Girl Barbie, no headshot for you. Your feet are the only reason I got you - that, and the cowboy outfit. I didn't have any bigfoot barbies before, and I had no idea there was an articulated version, so this was a great find. Someone put Cali Girl's legs on an older Fashionista body and I might try that if I find one in a matching skintone. I thought some of my shoes would fit her, but unfortunately her feet are just too wide. Yet again I'm grateful for those kids who don't seem to ever play with their dolls and then donate them complete with shoes.
