Even though I don't care for the outfit, when I saw the accessories, I just had to get them. The little box is just too cute. The bracelet is very classy and the "Twas the Night before Christmas" book is now the featured book on display in my Library scene. I'm going to pair the fur purse with last year's holiday PWP giveway, which was the ddep red sweater, mittens and headband. The silver loop earrings are so cute, that I've decided to get Kai's ears pierced so she can wear them!

After reading this review, I went after work to AGPNY and purchased this outfit. I love it. THe shoes are my favorite and the little bow on the back is really cute. I'm using the outfit on my Karito Kid doll, so the pants look like capris, which IMHO look better as capris. The sweater is thick and soft.
Grade: A+

I don't like writing negative reviews, but this set isn't even worth the $10. The finger nail stickers don't stick! The toenail stickers were a little better, but there is no way these stickers can be used again. They are a pain to take off and usually tear or bend so that they can't be used. Not at all impressed. Save your money. The little cardboard emory boards are cute but are not sturdy and can end up bent.
Grade: F

I absolutley love this. It is made of wood and is very well-made and heavy. The mirror is real not those fake plastic ones where the image is distorted. Dispite the pretty pink and green colors, the storage bins are hard cardboard like the storage bins that went under the camp bunk beds. I took them out altogether and use the entire tower as a bookshelf. The earring tree is some type of foam rubber with holes in it to place the earrings. The tray is plastic. This item looks wonderful in my doll's room and I am glad I purchased it. I don't feel I wasted my money. Grade A+     |

Rolling Suitcase ID card Luggage tag Travel wallet two faux plane tickets pretend passport travel stickers $28 Unfortunately, I do not have pictures but this is my favorite out of all the things I ordered in this release. The suitcase is like the newer ones made today of the extremely hard plastic (forgive me I don't know what they call it). It rolls very easily and the handle comes up. The inside of the suitcase has a mesh pocket that can hold smaller items, just like a real suitcase. The luggage tage and travel wallet are made to look and feel as it is leather and is very soft to the touch. I simply adore the little travel stickers. The bigger ones can be placed on the suitcase itself and then there are stickers with just the country names that can be placed in the passport. I've reviewed all of the other suitcases made by AG and I really think this is the best. I just wish it had come with a travel pillow like the one in the Our Generation suitcase that came out earlier this year. Grade: A++ You will not regret purchasing this. Updated with photos:     |

My doll wears her capelet open like in the last picture. This way it doesn't look so tight and confining. My only disappointment is that the boots are hard to close as you can also see from the photo. I wish it had been a blazer as opposed to a capelet but it is still cute.

I must say of all the MyAG cats, I like Praline the best. Has Ginger been retired/archived/discontinued?
I also loved Marisol's Siamese cat Rascal.

I got this locker off ebay for $125. It was well worth it. It's very sturdy and really does hold a lot of stuff as the pictures above show. This is exactly how school lockers in the 1970s looked. A++

I have it and I like everything except the molded candy in the bowl. The pumpkin pie is my favorite. And yes, the pie plates are plastic. Everything is plastic except the Halloween gift or candy bags.

I love this set, particularly the purse, which I had one very similar at that age. I use the purse with several of my doll's outfits. It's faux suede and really soft.

I've seen this outfit in the store and whereas I love the colors, I do not like the style. It seems more like a baby doll dress - something the Bitty Twins would wear as opposed to the 8-12 age range the MyAG's are supposed to represent.

I purchased the outfit yesteday. I love it but I didn't like the blouse layered under it so my doll wears it without the blouse and it looks great. I think had the dress been totally sleeveless, and the blouse been a turtleneck it would have looked better underneath. But I did not like it layered under cap sleeves. However, overall, it is really cute and I give it an A.

I have the set and absolutely love it. The tacos feel real. I just adore the juice drink bottles.

I actually like the set but largely because pink and green are my favorite color combinations and also my sorority colors. Overall, I don't have a problem with it but I do wish the watering can was a little larger but not so large that it could not fit in the tote.

I initially hated this dress. But when I saw it in person at AGPNY, I really liked the material. I took the purple bow off and it's just great now.

Although I don't own this outfit, I've seen it up close at AGPNY. It is very indicative of the 70s when I was a girl. It actually reminds me of the performance outfits the Partridge Family always wore.

I use mine strictly as background props for my stage diorama. The dolls can't sit on the stool, but I think the idea was for them to be kind of proped up with one leg on the floor. The chair is a sturdy metal, but the other pieces are plastic. They work well as props but that is about it. It really was not worth the $42. I guess that was because of the stool being metal.

The pictures say it all. I have this set and love it best of all the swimsuit sets over the years. The colors are just awesome - and different.

I saw this doll in person at AGPNY and she looks like a real person. I mean of all the dolls, this one looks as if she resembles a real human being.

I think they have improved on the tent since the posts from 2007 and 2008. I just purchased this last week with the free shipping code (YEH!) and I love it and find it to be very sturdy. I tried doing things to see if the tent would collapse and it didn't. If you snap the poles into the holes securely, you should not have any problems.

I have this set and I really like it. I prefer the shampoo bottle and dog brush found in the set released in 2009, which I purchase as replacement parts. Overall I give this one a B+

I purchased this for a friend's daughter but I'm afraid I was not impressed with the house. It easily caves in. C-

I have Coconut and I love him but I must admit that I became a suedo-dog groomer and shaped him up. He looks so much better now. Before his hair was all wild and going in every which direction and you could barely see his eyes. I purchased him brand new but he still needed work. I give him an A-

I have this set and it is adorable. I only use the hat and sunglasses and Coconut uses it for the beach instead of gardening.

The book was eliminated and the charm was added in 9/2010.
These are probably the cutest pajamas AG has ever made and I've purchased enough sets to know. The colors are great and look good on any doll regardless if she is blonde or brunette. The slippers go superbly with the pajamas. The book is full of popcorn recipes. Your dolls will love going to a sleepover in these.
