Skateboard Outfit + Book (2008-2009)

Grade: C

I am returning my skateboarding outfit.

My grade and review goes mostly by my opinion, because obviously others have other opinions.

Starting with the shirt- It's ok. I think it should at least touch the shorts. When I put the shirt on my Nellie doll, it had space between it and the shorts. Plus, it could at least have some kind of detail. I give it a B. (But why pink!)

Shorts- I thought I would actually like these! They don't go up on Nellie the whole way. If she were a real little girl, her toosh would surely show. (unless I have a fat Nellie!) The material and the coloring is nice, but it doesn't match the shirt that well. A

Jacket- This piece is ok.. I the design of the flowers is cute, and it matches the tanktop, but the whole shirt/jacket set doesn't match the shorts! B

Shoes- I don't like these, I didn't see the yellow design on them on the website. I love the style though. But again, pink?! A

Skateboard- I am so upset with this! I put Nellie on it, and made her "skateboard" a foot across my kitchen floor. What happens? The wheels and where they are attatched wobble and get loose and, she falls onto the floor. And Nellie's limbs are still nice and tight! I even used that elastic band thing! C Though I do love the design on the bottom as well!

My overall opinion on this is, "It's ok but they could have done better." I see boys and girls skateboarding. Girls are even dressed like the boys. They are the "skaters" I guess. And I never see a girl wear something like this- skateboarding or not!

ETA- I will try to get my pictures up as soon as I can!
