She is wearing a peach dotted Swiss dress and carries a white basket of flowers as she is the flower girl . This `` Kelly '' was later renamed and turned into the Stacie doll . The Todd doll which is made from the same mold has fuzzy brown hair . Chelsea 's name , `` Kelly '' is mentioned in the web series , Barbie : Life in the Dreamhouse . </Li>
