What do we have here? Samantha Parkington posing as a modern girl of today! (Don't tell her grandmother.)
She is modeling the second cropped jacket and striped green headband from Etsy seller muxoriginals. Very fashionable items indeed! When I saw these cropped jackets in the muxoriginals store I was so impressed and knew Penny would want to get them. I'm so happy there was a sale!
Now I am going to "high-jack" this post for a little while to tell you about Rebecca Rubin. You remember how Samantha was "archived" to make room for more new AG historicals? Well coming in June is Rebecca Rubin- a 9-year-old Jewish girl living in 1914 New York. There is more to this scoop of course- so be sure to scour the web for more information (her book summaries) if you are interested. Penny said she is definitely coming home to Badger's Wood- with anything that looks good from her collection. Perhaps this is where this year's tax refund will go? Haha. I'm not sure Derek will agree with that plan.
But for now, Penny has announced that a NEW American Girl doll will be arriving at Badger's Wood before the end of January!!!!!! Obviously it is not Rebecca yet....not sure who it is though! But don't worry- she'll be up on this blog soon enough!
