Kit's Outfit
Item# BKD74 

Kit is ready for any news story in her favorite floral dress! This authentic 1930s outfit includes:

-A bright blue-green sleeveless dress with a Peter Pan collar, bright red flower-shaped buttons, and a flared skirt with a vivid floral print
-Ruffled white bloomers
-Strappy scarlet shoes with white faux stitching
-A hair barrette

I purchased Kit's outfit as soon as it came out.  Despite the fact that the barrette was listed in the item description it was not included in the outfit. 

I love everything about this outfit.  The deep turquoise color is really pretty.  The flower buttons are really cute and go well with the floral print on the skirt.  The shoes have a nice long strap, and it looks like there's more Velcro than some of the older shoes allowing for an easier fit.  One shoe was definitely easier to get on than the other.  I had the same issue with Addy's new meet boots too.  Maybe my girls just have big feet (or 1 big foot).  These shoes are the same style as Samantha's new meet shoes, just a different color with additional stitching.  The hat she is pictured with is from Kit's School Skirt Set and though the pink is not an exact match I think it looks pretty good with the dress. 

The only downside is the price.  $36 for a sleeveless dress and shoes is a bit much and it really should have come with the barrette.  Despite that I still give this an A+ because I really do love it that much!

This was the outfit I knew I had to have when the first sneak peeks of Beforever were revealed. I will admit, though, I swallowed hard at the price. I think it's worth it? Don't get me wrong, I love it, but $60 for the dress + accessories (hat, handbag, bracelet) is a.lot.

Anyway, I think the colors are gorgeous, the fabrics are high quality, the detailing with the buttons on the placket, the peter pan collar, and the rickrack trim is divine.

I don't have Kit but it looks great on Caroline and Cécile. I made a review video with additional photos at the end.

I fell in love with this outfit as soon as I saw those first sneak peeks of it. I had some real sticker shock when I first saw the price, but it didn't stop me from buying it. It is a little mind boggling that this is the most expensive of Kit's new outfits. But I bought it because I wanted the dress and barrette. Well, we all know how well THAT worked out! : After an email and three phone calls, AG came through with the missing barrette.

Until the Meet II barrette came I used the red barrette from Kit's Hairstyling Set. It matches really well.

After the barrette came I took some comparison pictures between the red bow barrette and the Meet II barrette. From what everybody had said I was expecting it to be more pink. I can barely tell the difference in color between the two. I'm still glad I was able to get one. Kit uses her barrettes a lot!
