Her hair is gorgeous. It finger curls easily, but I do think it will take a little extra effort to keep it looking nice.
The flower clip is very easy to use. I included a picture of the back below so you can see how it clips. The shoes are cute, but the elastic on the back of one of mine is very loose and always falls off. Her necklace is pretty and ties in the back, but it's long enough that you don't have to untie it to get it on and off. Her dress is nice and summery and I really like the color.

I love Kanani's PJ's and they look great on Sonali too.

This outfit is very pretty, but I imagine it doesn't hold up well. The velcro snags on the dress very easily. I also find that the dress is really tight, which I guess it's supposed to be but it creates more velcro issues. I love the way it looks on Mia, just wish it was made a little nicer.

From AG's website: Sweetheart Pajamas for Dolls + Charm
My American Girl® dolls can have sweet dreams in these pajamas! They feature:
A short-sleeved tee with a heart graphic at the chest Scrunchy heart-print shorts with tie details at the sides A pair of fleece-lined, knit slipper socks with dangly heart appliqués A “Kind” round charm for the doll’s charm-keeper necklace
The slipper socks are what sold me on this outfit. I absolutely love them! The t-shirt is cute too and looks great with jeans and skirts. The shorts are nice too but very short. They're a little see through, but only with Lanie's dark blue undies. I give this an A+

From AG's website:
Hawaiian Monk Seal
In her stories, Kanani helps to rescue a baby Hawaiian monk seal. This one is cute and cuddly, with a plush body and sweet whiskers. Includes a mini newspaper with an article about the seal pup Kanani saved.
I don't typically buy a lot of AG plush, but I like sealife and wanted to get this guy. He's nice and soft, and pretty large.

From AG's website:
Kanani's Paddleboard Set Kanani's favorite sport is paddleboarding—she can "catch waves" at the beach with this set:
A graphic paddleboard she can stand on A long paddle she can really hold A nylon life vest with buckle closures to keep her safe A printed beach towel for drying off Faux sunscreen, a map of Kaua‘i, and a mini Beach Sports magazine
This set is great! I was surprised at the sturdiness and weight of the paddleboard. The towel is really nice and pretty large compared to some of the other AG beach towels. The sunscreen is cute and the lid does come off, but the bottle is hard so it's not squeezable. The life vest is nice and has the same pattern on the back that's on Kanani's swimsuit. The map and magazine are ok. They're just paper so not that exciting. Overall I give this set an A+.

From AG's website:
Kanani’s family lives near the ocean, so she spends a lot of time at the beach. This outfit is perfect for sun and fun:
A halter swimsuit featuring a vibrant print and a gathered keyhole at the neckline Nylon board shorts with a contrast waistband and a floral graphic at the left leg A printed headscarf with an attached side-tie to pull back her long hair
I love the swimsuit. It's very stretchy and ties behind the neck. the keyhole is a nice detail. The shorts are cute and match nicely. The headscarf is weird. It's made like a headband with a stretchy piece in back so you can't tie it yourself. I honestly can't see myself using it very much. I would give this outfit an A-. The minus is for the headscarf because otherwise I love this set.

I love this ornament! It's my favorite out of all the ones I have. Felicity has such a sweet expression and the teeny tiny horse brush is so cute. I also love that she looks so much like book felicity. The paint on this ornament is also very well done.

This Addy ornament comes with a separate tiny coin ornament. Though I don't have the 2002 and 2003 Addy ornaments I prefer them both over the 2004 ornament.

I like the vivid colors in Josefina's outfit. Sombrita is adorable although she's more of a pale gray and white in ornament form while the doll size Sombrita is black and white. I'm not thrilled that the hook is in her head, but I choose to ignore it since I don't hang them.

I love the detail in this ornament, especially in the log and on Kaya's dress. The pups are really cute, and if I remember correctly they're actually fuzzy (I already put myornaments away). Even though the hook is clearly visible, I'm glad it's not sticking out of the top of her head since I do not hang them.

This is one of my favorites out of all the Hallmark ornaments. I love her chair and birthday outfit anyway, so of course I like them in ornament form. Her face is very sweet, I tried to get a closer view in the third picture. It's also nice that the hook is in her back instead of sticking out of the top of her head. I don't hang them, so that position is nicer when they're on display.

I love the chair in this ornament, very detailed. Samantha looks very sweet in her birthday outfit. While I do have a Christmas tree hook on her, I do not hang her on the tree. The Hallmark ornaments are fairly heavy and don't hang very well. I've had these ornaments for awhile now, but haven't had a place to display them until this year.

Molly is cute in her Christmas dress with her doll. However, her glasses are pretty thick and I think they're a little overpowering. I prefer Molly's 2003 ornament.

Out of the 2 Molly ornaments that I have, I definitely like this one better. Her glasses are not as awkward or thick as they are in her 2002 ornament.

The dress looks great on every doll I've put it on so far. However, I'm not a fan of the jacket. It just doesn't seem to pair well with the dress.

I've had these on my list to get for awhile now and finally got them for Christmas. I absolutely love them! They are so soft and nicely made. The slippers fit well and the pj's are pretty roomy.

Rebecca's coat is nice and soft. It fits well over her meet dress and it's not too tight. It looks great with the hat from Rebecca's accessories. The ends of the muff are stretchy so it's possible to put it over both hands

I like the hat and the pin, but the scarf is awful! The hat looks really nice with Rebecca's winter coat.

This gown is gorgeous! I love the detail at the sleeves and the snowflake designs. The shoes are really cute, but a little tighter than most of the other shoes I have. The glovers are stretchy and very easy to use. The tiara is a pain and hard to get on right. I'll have to try an updo like AGR. The comb part is flat so it doesn't work very well with the contours of the doll's head. I know others have mentioned that this gown looks more purple than blue, but to me it's all blue.

I'm not a big fan of sweaters with "stuff" on them, but this set is quite nice. The sweater looks great with the leggings from Lanie's nature outfit and some boots.

I've had this for a couple years, and it's one of my favorites. I absolutely love the vest and shirt. The both seem very realistic to me and I get a lot of use out of them since they look great with jeans.

I purchased this set in Natick, so it is (or was) available in at least this bistro location. It's really cute, and looks great with the red quilted jacket exclusive also. ETA Pics:

This set is really cute and functional. The snowshoes stay on very well and really do help balance dolls in the snow. The tube is nice and the dolls sit pretty well on top. I also love the hat!

I absolutely love this outfit. A+ The dress is cute, and the plaid lines up correctly when you velcro the front together. I am so happy that the long sleeved shirt is a separate piece. The boots are great! They are similar to Julie's calico dress boots, but the stitch pattern is different and I like these better. The hat is really cute and completes the outfit. When it first came out of the box there was a crease all the way around, but now that it's been out for a couple days it's pretty much gone away.

Overall a very cute outfit with versatile pieces. I love the pants. they are such a nice color, fit well, and are super soft. The shirt is cute and has the same stretchy material around the neckline as the headband. The headband is really stretchy, unlike the older headbands. It's very easy to get on without messing up their hair, however it's a very thin material, so it seems like it may be easily snagged. ETA: The shirt looks cute with the MyAG meet pants too.

Sonali is absolutely gorgeous! I love the new face mold. Just wanted an excuse to post a picture of her. :-)
