Corinne's Casual Outfit - $34.00
Product Code: HCN04

Came home with one of these, but we're definitely getting a second one with the next Rewards certificate!

JACKET. Quality faux fur, feels like the amazing 1990s Dakin plush that you can't get anymore. Fully lined (even the sleeves) with shiny purple fabric. No closure. Fit well, even over the clothes underneath. A bit short-waisted, in my opinion, so not a fan of it due to its styling, it's a quality piece, if you're into this fashion style.

LEGGINGS. Nice and stretchy. Thinner than the Meet Outfit, comparable to Courtney's blue leggings. Definitely leggings and not pants. Too much thigh gap for me to use them as is, but we're excited about putting these under a skirt or longer sweater. The pattern looks a lot like "Mary Blair" Disney art.

T-SHIRT. A nice cotton t-shirt with a Colorado decal on it. Comparable to the Ireland t-shirt from the Travel set and the Skyline tees. Nice length, not too short or thin. Velcros up the whole back.

HEADBAND. 👎 Well, what can you say? A piece of very cheap, thin fleece serged around the edges. Think freebie to raise item count in set. The back DOES feature about an inch of elastic under the fleece, which gives it a bit of stretch.
​
HOLOGRAPHIC BOOTS. Same holographic material as Luciana's boots but different styling. No particular style or shape, but they'll work with a variety of outfits. Have flexible rubbery soles, instead of the hard plastic ones. Velcro up the back. I like them.

The above review is pretty fair. Here are some additional thoughts and photos, along with AG’s description.



When she’s hanging out with her best friend, Cassidy, or cheering Gwynn on at the rink, Corinne shows off her mountain style in this outfit that includes:

A purple faux-fur coat with a snuggly stand-up collar - This is well made, completely lined, and goes well with Corinne’s collection, although I’m not personally a fan of the short-ish length. I also would have preferred pockets and some kind of closure on the coat.








A pale blue short-sleeved tee with a graphic of snow-capped mountains - This is an okay tee-shirt. I don’t think there’s anything super special about it (the color and graphic are just okay, in my opinion), but it’s good quality, fits well, and mixes well with other pieces in the collection. Low-snag Velcro goes up the back. (Jess’s neck strings are visible underneath.)









A pair of multicolored print leggings with an elastic waist - These are pretty nice. Not only is the color/pattern appropriate, but they’re also sized really well. There’s plenty of length and rear end coverage, even for an older doll like Jess, and even when sitting down.






A white fleece headband - I really like this addition. I think it’s the perfect piece to keep the ears warm and cozy, and it seems well made and functional with the bit of elastic.




A pair of white iridescent pull-on boots - I would have considered these more silver than white, but I guess that’s the iridescence. They Velcro up the back although I didn’t need to use that part; they slipped pretty easily onto Jess’s sockless feet. These are fairly lightweight and seem pretty inexpensive, but I like how they look with this outfit.






Overall, I like Corinne’s Casual Outfit. Even though I’m not crazy about any of its individual parts, I think they’re pretty well made and have good mix-and-match potential with the rest of her collection. I think I’d give it a B at the retail price, maybe upgraded a bit if purchased at a discount.
