Goodbye Saige!

Like I did a week ago, I'm doing a Goodbye Post for Saige because she is now retired, gone into the GOTY Archives :( 

Saige is a beautiful doll.  She was my fifth doll and I got her for my birthday back in April. I was very pleased with my purchase and I loved Saige ever since then.

From Saige's Collection, I have her Meet Outfit, Sparkle Dress and Sweater Outfit.  Her collection was very stunning--but her Sweater Outfit had to be my favorite!

At first when I purchased Saige, I was scared to do anything or even brush her beautiful curls.  But after awhile, I messed around with them and I discovered how beautiful and easy to manage, and I began to love Saige even more.

Saige is so beautiful, and she turns out right in every picture.

Good-bye, Saige!
Do you have Saige or any of her items?

Good-bye Molly and Emily!

It's always sad when a doll retires, especially a Historical (because you know the Girl of the Year is going to retire).  I thought it would be nice to give a Good-bye post to Molly and Emily (Saige's is coming next week).

Molly was one of the first dolls to come out, along with Kirsten and Samantha.  Molly looks simply adorable in anything, and she has beautiful, long hair.  Emily has beautiful bright red hair, a super cute meet dress, and her eyes are a brilliant blue.

I was lucky to be able to purchase Molly at the American Girl Place in May.  I have never, ever regretted my purchase because she is a beautiful doll and is probably the most photogenic of my dolls.  I love how Molly looks in this picture, and the grass in the background.

Along with purchasing Molly, I also purchased her Polka-Dot Dress which she looks beautiful in (Molly's polka-dot dress is probably my favorite of her collection).  

Later that summer, I ordered from American Girl, and when it came I received Molly's Birthday Dress and Molly's (NEW) Spring Pajamas.  Once again, I was very delighted with my purchase from American Girl because both of the outfits looked adorable on Molls!

Lastly, in December, I got Molly's Christmas Dress for Christmas.  I was planning on getting her Tap Outfit, as well, but it was sold out ;(

So far, I have been pleased with all of my purchases from the Molly Collection.  If I could have any outfit of hers I didn't have, it would be her Tap Outfit.

I hope you all had the chance to get Molly before she retires (if you wanted her).  But if you didn't, keep checking Amazon and eBay for some good deals ;)

We love you Molly and Emily!!!

It's Official

That's right girls, it's official, Molly IS retiring.  No one knows when, but she is.  I'm just so glad I have Molly, but I still have the rest of her collection to get.
