This outfit retails for $42 Canadian and it comes with a white tshirt with patterning at the sleeves and neck, a coral jumper, and shoes with rainbow graphics on the sides. Close up of the graphic on the upper left hand corner of the jumper. It is a rainbow with the saying "Waves For Days" The jumper has Velcro on the back to fasten it on the doll. Very cute! A+ Close up of the tshirt itself. As most AG tshirts do, it Velcros in the back. Pretty standard. B The shoes are white running shoes with rainbow sides. The rainbows transformed these from just plain into adorable shoes that compliment the outfit and Joss. A Considering how well every piece works together, I am giving this outfit an A. The tshirt has mix and match potential with almost anything, as do the shoes. My only complaint, as always, is the price.

This cute outfit was a mid-year release in 2020. It retailed for $28 at American Girl. Here’s the AG description, along with some additional photos and thoughts about the pieces: When Joss visits Huntington Beach pier to get milkshakes with Sofia, she wears this California bright and beachy outfit that includes: An orange jumper with shoulder straps and real pockets on the front and back, A white T-shirt, A pair of tennis shoes with rainbow graphics on the sides. The jumper is made of a nice canvas material. I agree that the color is more coral or maybe salmon than pure orange, but as these photos show, the exact tint can vary depending on the light and shadows. (All of my photos were taken indoors in natural light.) It’s definitely not the same color as the pink in her Beach Vibes hat, which she’s wearing in these pictures, but I think the two pieces still work well together without being too matchy-matchy. The pockets and buttons on the jumper are all real. The “Waves for Days” and rainbow emblem on the top corner are cute. Although there are buttons on the sides, the jumper actually fastens with straps that go over the shoulder and Velcro on the back. The bottom of the jumper is cut-off rather than hemmed. The white T-shirt has a strip of Velcro up the back and cute woven aqua and salmon colored bands at the neckline and arms. It looks great with the jumper outfit, and also works with her meet shorts and some other pieces from her collection. The fabric is a little thin (you can see her body tag through it), but it’s not too bad. I especially love the shoes with their rainbow graphics. These are slip-on sneakers with thick soles, no tying or socks needed. Overall I really like this outfit. I initially hesitated on the purchase because it’s not quite as typical of what kids wear at the beaches here as some of Joss’s other outfits, but I do really like all the components and how they work together and with her other pieces.
