Final Post Of The Year!

I figured I'd tie up the year by doing a post on my five favorite outfits released in 2011. If you do a post like this, tell me so I can link to it!

All right! Top 5 doll outfits released in 2011, number 5:



Most of the historical spring outfits were dull and pink. This one had the huevos to stand out! Very cool. I'm probably Julie biased, though.

Number 4:



Maybe I'm not nuts about the logo, but I dig purple, and I LOVE clothes that actually looks like what kids wear.

Number 3:



This is my favorite of the Marie-Grace/Cecille releases. It's simple, but it's got a lot of nice detail, and that's a rare color in the American Girl collection.

Number 2:



It needs a belt, but dang, don't it look nice and warm?

Number 1! Drumroll!



Love the color. Love the ruffles. Love the whole thing, and I hope it makes it into my collection this year!

Christmas!

Since everyone else posts their haul:



The bitty outfit was from my Clandestine Coconut, and the rest was from my husband! So happy with it~

Hope you had a nice holiday too!
