Summer Festival Fun with Lalaloopsy
As a blogger, I am always envious of the amazing festivals which I read about over the Summer on other blogs. Every year I tell myself that we will invest in a pop up tent, a few pairs of ear defenders, and take our children to a festival, and every year the Summer holidays pass by in a blur and we never actually get around to it. So when we were asked to review Storm E Sky, the latest Lalaloopsy doll, it was the perfect excuse to have a music festival of our own in the back garden!
For those who are unfamiliar with Lalaloopsy, they are the most amazing range of dolls which were once rag dolls but magically came to life when their last stitch was sewn. Cute and wholesome, Lalaloopsy offers children a whimsical world of characters with unique personalities drawn from the fabric used to sew them, and aims to teach children, via the toy line and accompanying Netflix episodes, that everyone is unique with all different personalities and styles.
Storm E Sky comes with the cutest little cat, Cool Cat, along with a hair brush. She’s a bit of a rebel, sometimes a little misunderstood, but loves to practice guitar and rock out with friends.
Storm E Sky is part of a new range of Lalaloopsy dolls just launched which, for the first time, have real hair. My girls have had Lalaloopsy dolls previously and been disappointed that they didn’t have hair to brush, so this was something they were both really excited about!
With Storm E Sky being a bit of a rock chick, and very much into her music and festivals, Eva was very excited about getting dressed up for our own music festival, complete with a matching outfit to her doll, a floral head band and glitter. Lots of glitter.
Eva was over the moon to have her star guest, Storm E Sky, at our festival and couldn’t wait to get her outside and dancing to the music! Luckily for us, Megan and Harry were more than happy to provide the entertainment!
I love that the doll is such a good size, over 30cm tall, are and how every Lalaloopsy doll comes with a different name, personality and style. I love the ethos behind Lalaloopsy and the idea of encouraging our children to be their own person, a really important quality to instil in our children from a young age.
We had such a great time at our back garden festival with Storm E Sky and hopefully next Summer we will finally get to take her to a real festival!

I’m envious of those festivals too. Keep meaning to go, especially the ones that are geared towards family, but I’m really bad at planning 😉 Eva looks so adorable! And that Lalaloopsy doll looks so cute 🙂
They are super cute! Eva has a new favourite there! xx
My niece loves lalaloopsie and has become rather a rock chick herself recently, I can imagine a request for Christmas coming up!!!
Sounds like it would be perfect! xx
I went to download festival on 2015 but haven’t managed to get back since! I think I might try and go next year with T! He’ll be walking by then and I know he’s a rocker already! These dolls are so funky!
That sounds fun! xx

Thank you Anosa, she was over the moon with it! xx
Wow, these look super cool! Lalaloopsy dolls kinda remind me of the movie Coraline with those button eyes.
Haha me too!! xx
We love Lalaloopsy dolls, I have some of the miniature ones but this doll looks cool, love the colourful hair. We go to loads of festivals so this doll would be prefect for us!
They are fab aren’t they? My girls go crazy for them! xx
I love these dolls, I have brought them as gifts for the girls in our family and they are great. Unfortunately Fred is a very boys boy and we are not allowed anything remotely girly in the house 🙁 boo!!
Ahh they are fab dolls, love the new ones with real hair! xx
I love that you can now brush the dolls hair. What a great idea to have a festival of your own in the garden.
Me too Debbie! My girls love styling their dolls hair so this is perfect! xx
Alice would love this! I love that you had your own festival, such a great idea. We really need to try a festival next year, it always looks so much fun. Great review as always xx

Wait? There’s a Netflix series? How have I not found this yet? My daughter would love it!
Haha yes!! It’s fab! xx
The dolls really are a good size! Love the idea of having a music festival in the garden we must try this 😀 x
It’s a safer option having it in the garden than in a muddy field! xx
A back garden festival sounds like the perfect one for this summer. we have been to two and they were both very soggy
Oh no!! See that’s what puts me off, and yet here I am going camping next week! xx
I love the glitter! They both look perfect for some festival fun x
Thanks Clair! xx
Ah these look adorable! I’m sure my little niece would love it! I think I’d need to ear defenders just for her excited screams! Haha!
Hahah that made me laugh! xx

I didn’t realise that LaLaLopsy was still in! My daughter used to love them. I love this one though, but she has purple hair, not going to lie.LOL
They’ve been going a while now – my girls are obsessed! xx
I love the little cat that comes with her! Your daughter looks like she loves it!
Ahh yes she really does! xx
This is so cute. My niece would love this for her birthday next month.

I love the look of this, there were never any alternative dolls when I was growing up xo
It’s a great doll, the kids love Lalaloopsy! xx
Ohh this doll reminds me of the animated movie “Coraline”! You guys should see it but it might get a bit scary for youe girls. Check out the movie trailer before.
I agree that the size of this doll is awesome! And first I thought she was tiny but what a suprise when your daughter held the doll in her arms. Looks like fun for kids to play with!
I’ve seen it! I totally get what you mean!! Hahah! xx
