Outfits of the Week- Individual Website Highlights

Today's "Outfits of the Week" post will feature three outfits from website shops selling handmade AG-sized doll clothing. The pictures you see below are the property of the sellers, and if anyone wants me to remove them- please feel free to say "Don't show my pic you blogging fiend!"

But in the interest of highlighting these sellers' wares,
I hope nobody minds. :)

First we have a brown paisley dress inspired by
Kid's GAP fashions and created by Damsels-in-Dress.
There are currently two left in the shop.
Such a pretty dress!
Yay for the new Damsels-in-Dress website!!!


The second outfit for today is a 1940s era dress for
Molly or Emily created by The Dollies' Dressmaker.
It is their newest design and would be perfect
for those upcoming holiday parties at school or with friends
in this wonderful festive red color.


Our last outfit for today is the special Liberty Jane Clothing
"Hello New York" celebrity style outfit
based on real humans duds worn by Hannah Montana.
So much is included with this outfit and it looks so chic.
Again, yay for the new Liberty Jane Clothing website!!!


Since we have recently been returning to the Liberty Jane theme again and again, we should probably show you some complete outfits that we have purchased from LJC this year. ;)

So for Monday Sundari will be modeling the "Breakout Performance" celebrity style outfit for y'all. Then the following Monday (September 28th) we are going to play a little mix and match game. We will show you our next LJC outfit in two different ways. First we will show you the outfit as is, then we will take something from the "Breakout Performance" outfit and add it to the second outfit. And so on, and so forth. So in the end, you'll be able to see many LJC outfits mixed and matched and essentially Mondays will be our Liberty Jane day until we run out of outfits.....

Does this sound like fun?

I hope so...... it took me awhile to come up with the idea and I'm kind of proud of it. :)

Damsels-in-Dress 1930s Dress, Apron and Oven Mitt

Kit Kittredge is now the proud owner of our first outfit from Ebay seller Damsels-in-Dress!

We've been browsing the Damsels shop casually for awhile now, but were never quite sure what we wanted to get. There are always so many fantastic and creative new things, it can be difficult to choose!

Lately Penny has been concentrating our buying efforts on 1930s and 1940s clothing, with a sprinkle of this and that thrown in for good measure. This Damsels 1930s dress, apron, and oven mitt appeared as if by magic- just the type of thing we were looking for! And perfect for our new Kit- the blue fabric even matches her eyes!

Penny said she knew this was the dress to buy because the main fabric on the dress is very similar to the wallpaper that was once in the dining room of her parents' house. So....wait a minute...huh? I think I need to explain that one a bit more. According to her, the pattern and color of the fabric reminded her of home and fancy holiday dinners with the whole family gathered in the formal dining room. So she definitely wanted that dress. I guess that makes sense, in a weird sort of way.

Stella was the photographer again, so there are a lot of pictures. Below you will see the blue dress, the white apron, and the blue oven mitt that were included with this outfit. The dress features a detachable little bow-tie-esque collar. The apron has some really lovely embroidery work that we show in a close-up, as well as two functional pockets. And the oven mitt is just perfectly adorable and squishy!

Being our first purchase from Damsels-in-Dress, we should comment on the high-quality of the product. This outfit is excellent. No flaws. Perfect proportions. Great detailing. And the fabric choices are just amazing. Everything a doll (and a collector) could ever want! Thank you Jean!

My next post will be a return to Keepers Dolly Duds with a new 1930s Ruthie dress. Ruthie is finally becoming slightly more satisfied with the amount of clothing in her wardrobe. I have to say that she only owns one official American Girl Ruthie outfit, and Kit kind of stole it from her. Bad Kitty, heehee.
