I put this outfit on my Caroline doll, and she's not especially beefy or anything.
Overall: It seems like it would be easy enough for the colors in this outfit to match, since it's mostly white. But the sweater and leggings are a much dingier shade of white than the very bright white on the cuffs of the boots. Do not like!
Sweater: Pretty, I like the sparkly fabric and that the sleeves are a good length since many AG sweaters seem to have sleeves that are a little too short. I also like that the sweater is a reasonable length. Wouldn't mind it being a little longer, but a lot of AG shirts are really short, so I appreciate that this one isn't. I do not like how tight the sweater is. It looks uncomfortable! The fibers are taut enough that you can see the doll's body fabric through it. Not so bad that it's hard to velcro shut, but still, it could definitely stand to be less tight.
Skirt: Oh, this is SO tight! Even as an adult, I had a hard time shimmying it up over the leggings. I think a kid would find it very difficult. It's also shorter than I would prefer. That aside, it's nice and plush and soft.
Leggings: Again, really tight. Could be a bit thicker. I do like that they're full length and not capris, though.
Boots: I think these would look better with the rest of the outfit if they were white. They are also VERY tight! It took a lot of wrestling to get the boots on my doll, and when I finally did get them on, one of them doesn't even velcro shut all the way. I'll have to be careful to keep her away from fabric when wearing this outfit.
Verdict: My overall impression is that this outfit is very tight! I half worry that my poor doll will develop body image issues because it's so tight. I got this on sale for I think 50% off, but would not keep it if I'd paid full price. It does look pretty cute when it's on, though. For all the reasons noted, this outfit gets a C grade from me.
