I try to only buy clothes for dolls that I would buy for a little girl. This would be a perfect Easter or church dress for either. The material is not as soft as it looks and is actually sort of scratchy. It is a really gorgeous dress, though! I love the emroidery and the fluttery sleeves.

Elena, my modern Elizabeth, claimed this dress for her wardrobe.

I didn't get into AG until 2010 so, of course, I missed the opportunity to buy Marisol new. I've always liked her, but ebay prices tend to be high. I had looked at #28, but never took the plunge. I found a Marisol on ebay who had been sent to the doll hospital for a new head. I paid what I would have paid for a new doll, but I don't regret it. Her hair is awesome! I'm a huge fan of the Josefina mold and medium skin tone. I sold her meet outfit before I thought to take any pictures because it just isn't my taste. Here she is in a few of the MyAG outfits:

I've really wanted this outfit since it first came out. The neckline doesn't bother me. I wanted to use the necklace as a choker, but it tends to get caught up in the doll's neck seam if I put it on too tight. I love the color, especially with Marisol's skin tone. It looks like something a young girl would actually wear.

I really like the flower pattern, but I wish the fabric of these PJs wasn't so thin. I think it's a realistic set. The bell-sleeves are pretty cute. I don't have the slippers, but I wish I did. Rose's feet might get cold!

I've wanted this outfit for a while. I got it in a lot on ebay. I really like it. The dress could even pass as pajamas. The only thing I'm not wild about is the shoes. My dolls stand in them just fine, I just don't really like them.

My #21 was purchased used and her pincurls seem to have been brushed out. I almost purchased this doll for my step-daughter nearly three years ago, but decided to get Lanie so that she would have some books to go with her doll. I've always been drawn to #21, and in person she is lovely. I did think that Lanie was the prettier of the two. I love the unique color of her hair. The length and the texture makes her hair so different from any of my others. It looks good up or down. A lot of people here have mentioned how versatile she is and I have to agree! This girl is timeless!



Her hair looks really cute in pigtails, too!



I had intended to use #21 as a sister for #38, but after getting overwhelmed by dollies and underwhelmed by this one in particular #21 went to live with another board member. I think I would have liked her better with her pincurls.

My daughter's #38, Trixie was purchased from a board member. Her ears are pierced. She is the only doll either of us own with bangs or freckles. I adore her hazel eyes. Her hair is very silky, although the color is more of a strawberry blonde than a true red, it is a realistic shade.

#21 didn't stay with us long, but #38 is a keeper!

I got this as part of the cyber monday sale as an extra outfit and never expected it to be my daughter's favorite, but it is! This is the easiest outfit for her to get on and off without my help. The corduroy pants are super soft and the shirt looks like something a little girl would actually wear. I actually like the shoes a lot, they're unique, but I doubt we'll find another outfit they'll go with. A+

I really like this! My daughter received this for Christmas along with her first doll and several outfits. I purchased it off ebay. The bedding is reversable, it has the moon and star theme on the other side. The only complaint I have is that the battery connection is a little touchy. After moving it to her bedroom from under the Christmas tree, I had to remove the battery door and wiggle them around to get the lights to come back on. I think two or three dolls would be really cute displayed on top. If anyone is interested, the stickers peel off easily (a little too easily for my taste).

I think this works really well with the pants from the current meet outfit. Very cute and at a good price.

This is the first outfit I liked enough to purchase new from AG at full price. It looks so soft and comfy and I think it would work well with every complection and hair color.

Here are some photos of my modern Elizabeth in her ebay Sapphire Party Outfit. I really like the look, but I do see where the shirt could snag easily. The velcro get hung in her hair if you're not careful. B+

I ordered Lanie as my step daugther's just like you doll. (She still has a a little trouble reading so I thought getting a doll with books might be beneficial). I took the hairnet off and picked through her curls. (I had no problems with her headband except it being a little tight). I'm fairly certain that we'll be using Tink's techniques for cleaning up her hair. Her meet outfit is cute, but I especially like her shoes and dragonfly underwear. We have a bit of an obesession with dragonflies at my house! She is a beautiful doll, but not my favorite because she is a blondie.
