    Loved your video. The "snowball monstrosity" is my favorite! Did you know it has a headband that goes with it? It's the same fabric as the sweater. My doll wears hers backwards, like a cardigan with a white mock turtle neck underneath, and she never gripes about how itchy the sweater is!😝

      We do have the headband - I think we got it after I filmed this. And that's a fun way to style the sweater. I don't think it'll sell me on the outfit lmao, but I'd love to try it just out of curiosity!

    I beg to differ on not being able to mix n match the holiday bibs! My 66 is wearing the bibs with the cargo outfit flannel tucked in and a black CC beanie hat, plus the gold shoes it originally came with. She looks cozy and oh so adorable!

    So fun. Love all these looks. That mermaid costume is awesome. I was dress coded in high school once and gosh was it humiliating. The teacher went out of her way to make me feel bad and I had to beg my mother not to call the school and mama bear out on her. 😅

    • @agtakesover
      @agtakesover  11 месяцев назад

      I taught high school for three years. I dress coded a couple students during my time as a teacher. To date, those decisions are on my short lists of regrets. Me giving in to stupid, sexist school policies probably made those girls feel indignant, embarrassed, shamed, or all of the above and I wish I'd never done that.

    I was introduced to AG as an adult in the late 1990’s. I have catalogs and a collection of outfits from 1996-1999.
    Anything in jeans works well for mix and match. The Earth Day overalls, Picnic Outfit shorts and blue jean basics jeans can be worn with a lot of shirts and accessories.
    The Play Outfit skirt and top tends to look like a teacher outfit 😜, especially when I put my CYO mini me in glasses. My tip for the shoes is to use the similar sandals for Saige’s sweater outfit. They are more sturdy.
    Love the Ski Apres, Halloween costumes, Union suit, etc! I like the quality. When Isabel and Nicki were released, I dove straight back to the original GOTY clothes from their time period.

I read so many reviews and the one thing that’s annoying about it is that the handle always seems to fall out. Well maybe that’s on the $25 one but I didn’t want to invest any more than that. Good luck I’m sure you’ll do wonderfully with clay! Just remember, it’s a process and it takes time to perfect the clay craft.

Also, I love the name Lisette (and Cosette, and Nicolette, and Juliette,...you get the picture) but my wife Grace hasn't been a huge fan and that doll is jointly owned so the search continues. We're currently trying out Celeste to see if it fits her.

    Okay, Ivy is cute enough all by herself to make that horrendous outfit work. It is still horrendous (I still remember you crinkling it for the camera and my teeth immediately setting on edge), but Ivy makes it seem like a more normal outfit. And I just love all these outfits. These outfits are my entire AG childhood - my original doll is a 1995 AGOT #17, and I had many of these outfits as a child - or coveted them. I think I wore an outfit similar to the original Mix n Match meet outfit, but I was also... seven, I believe, when it came out. And I have always been fashion challenged. Forever envious that you have the original Kwanzaa outfit. I 100% wore sleep shirts and slippers - my mum was a seamstress, so there were always pins on the floor, so we were required to always have some sort of footwear on. Thank you for sharing all these darling outfits - they will forever be my favourites in AG's extensive collections, simply because of the nostalgia.

      I don't know why, but reading your comments about sleep shirts and slippers made me think of Pillow People from the 80s. You're closer to Grace's age, so you might not be familiar with those, but I had one and I just looked them up. I certainly remember them being cuter than they were lol. Also, Ivy's in a MUCH cuter outfit now and the pink thing is once again hanging up :-)

    I completely agree that the snowball outfit is atrocious and the jeans do fit really weird. Everything else is really cute. I remember wearing a lot of sleep shirts like the one Giselle has on, but I also remember them riding up all night and bunching at my waist and I really didn't like that part at all. Now I wear PJ pants and big long-sleeved t-shirts and don't have that problem anymore. :) I'm so sorry your were dress-coded. I can see that happening at my daughter's school, as the bottoms don't go past your fingertips, although I think they do go past Blaire's fingertips. I still think they're really cute and school appropriate, but who am I? :) Now I must go watch your video about Columbus closing, because I just saw that was premiering. So sad! :(

      PJ pants and big shirts for the win. Slightly off topic but my almost four year old was calling for me tonight after we put her to bed and when I went in she said she was sweaty.
