Cécile's accessories were bought during the 61% off sale on December 5, 2012. Doll w/ accessories was $50.
Hat: A+
I love this hat! It isn't bent out of shape at all and if it is, you can easily fix that since it's made of a felt type of material. It feels nice and the embellishments are lovely and not skimpy, nor overdone. There's a red satin ribbon bow in the back, with a black velvet-y material all around, plus a red rose embellishment. It matches her meet outfit nicely and does not mess up her curls. You can pull it right off and her hair looks good as new.
Gloves: B
Meh. These gloves are okay. I would have preferred either longer gloves or a different item all together. They're a bit tricky to pull on the doll's hands, and there's a tag in one that makes the job even more difficult because it's huge. I hardly think a tag for the gloves is necessary, but whatever. They complement her meet outfit and they do look kind of cute once on, but those are the only merits I can think of.
Necklace: A++++++++
If you can't tell by the grade, then this necklace is just the best. I had a rude awakening when I observed MG's necklace because this one is fantastic! It's definitely metal and has a pearl set into a metal charm. It is not difficult to put on and hangs nicely over many outfits (I've tried McK's school outfit and Céce's meet dress, among other things). I've seen many real pearls before and AG did a great job making this one look realistic.
Overall grade: A+
AG could have done a bit better with the third accessory item, but the hat and necklace redeem the set. Now, is it worth $24? I got it on sale, but as much as I love it, I wouldn't have paid $24 for it. Other than that, it's a great buy.
