Out of all the historical girls, I would say Addy's outfits in particular are the most important to her story. Because of this, I wanted to hunt down the outfits that were really showcased in her books. That brings us to the beautiful Birthday Pinafore and Snood. I bought mine direct from AG during the Mattel era sometime before they retired it in 2013.
It is a really lovely outfit. I love the details of the gingham and rick rack together. I also really like the colors, it's a mix of light brown and tan, yet doesn't look dull or washed out. I have this on my Beforever Addy and it actually fits her quite well! I would look for a Mattel version if buying for the newer, slimmer dolls.
For the snood, I really appreciate that the snood is easily able to go over/on her meet hairstyle without ruining the hairdo. I agree that some glue is visible on the bird feathers, but this is a minor detail that doesn't stop me from enjoying the outfit as a whole, and I appreciate the pops of yellow. The socks are also a cute pattern and match the colors of the outfit very well.
I would give this outfit an A. It's a really solid piece that Addy looks very beautiful in.
