We are half-way through the AGPNY photos that I have been throwing at you left and right!
Today's post will feature images of Rebecca's Bed, Kittens, Pajamas, and Robe Set. This is the post where we start to notice that 1) Rebecca's hair seems to have 10,000 different styles in the store and 2) it sometimes appears to have a greasy goo in it that helps to limit the frizziness, but also looks greasy. Apparently this is how the AGPNY display staff tames the curls? You may be able to see it best in the fourth photo below where Rebecca is standing in her pajamas next to her bed and kittens.
Needless to say, Penny would love to be able to use all of these hairstyles on our own Rebecca. But they probably are not the easiest things to re-create. Even the pony-tail would probably take a lot of effort to look that smooth and sleek as the hairs are pulled back. But I digress from our topic...
The first image is of the bed, which you will see upon entrance to the store on the first floor. As you may be able to guess, Penny has no interest in the bed because it is pink. It is a lovely design though. If she reads somewhere that it can be painted with success, maybe she would consider buying it.
The next photo is of the kittens up-close, looking like they just had an argument and aren't talking to each at the moment. Heehee. This photo is followed by Rebecca standing in her jammies which do not come with any socks or slippers. So she is kind of awkwardly barefoot.
The robe set includes the slippers, which you can see in the last image in this post, after the shot of Rebecca standing next to her bed. Note the little kittens sitting next to the bed cuddling with each other. This set has not been arguing. Heehee.
The final photo in this post amused me the most because to me it looks like Rebecca is about to start her own conga line. Perhaps this was not the most graceful and poised doll to choose to include in my post, but the pose entertains me.
But more importantly, the pajamas and robe set are very cute and Penny happily purchased them on May 31st online. They have been gifted to Ruthie as her new jammies, robe and slippers. Are they accurate for the 1930s? Probably not. But Penny saw them as too cute to pass over and Ruthie was enamored of the cozy softness of the three items. Someday, once I am done posting about all of this vacation fun I should show you pictures of Ruthie in these AG duds.
Stay tuned for "AGPNY Photographs Part Four" coming this Friday! Woohoo! The final installment in our series of photographs of the American Girl Mecca in New York will show off many more Rebeccas and her dresses!
