Roller Skating Set + Charm $38, graphic hoodie, striped skirt, magenta legwarmers, roller skates with rainbow colored wheels, "real" heart charm. Helmet and wrist guards sold seperately. Roller Skate Outfit Close up of graphic on hoodie Roller Skates Backside of outfit My daughter recently received this outfit. She loves to play with it. The skates actually roll and her #37 doll stands very well in them. The skates are easily slipped on and then I tie the bow. She has Asperger's and hasn't mastered how to tie shoes yet but it able to get the skates on and off. The skirt is cute and girly and sits nice on the doll. The hoodie is soft and we both like the Eagle graphic. The only negatives are: 1. The hoodie is very tight fitting, too tight infact, and does not sit well on the doll and 2. It is hard to get the hoodie onto the doll. You open the velcro and while slipping the arms into the sleeves you have to squeeze the dolls head through the hoodie. If the doll has long hair it can be pulled (not so easily) through a hole in the back of the hoodie. I strongly suggest having a simple low ponytail on your doll with longer hair and then after the hoodie is on either pull the hair through the hole or style it. Putting the hoodie on messed up the hair style the doll was wearing. All in all we give this outfit an A-. The skates get an A+, the skirt an A, and the hoodie gets a B-. Oh and the legwarmers arent thin but arent thick. They slip on and then you put on the skates. My daughter likes that you can keep them more straight or scrunch them as you like.

My daughter picked this out at the AGPLA store. I think it's adorable. I love the colorful wheels and how they actually spin. She's only just started collecting, so I don't have much to go on quality wise, but I thought it was worth the money spent. I didn't buy her the helmet since she has one from Pottery Barn Kids.

DD got this set for Christmas & loves it. The skort/hoodie remind me of a Gymboree outfit that she had a couple years ago. The skates are so cute & fit easily on her PM Felicity. I think they'd be great for Julie too as they remind me of the skates I wore in the late 70s/early 80s.

I skated for many years and I bought this outfit as soon as it was released because I HAD to have the skates. Absolutely no disappointment here! I even sent a pic of them to a non doll-collecting skating friend from my childhood so she could see how realistic the little skates are! (Except my real ones had fluffy green Pom poms on them.) I highly recommend this set.

I love the Roller Skating Outfit. The skates are to die for! They remind so much of ones I had as a little girl in the early 90's that I use the outfit for my "mini-me".
