Addy's Blue Dress

 Happy birthday Addy!!


So since today is Addy's birthday I wanted to review a dress I recently bought for her. Her Blue Dress! I have her birthday outfit but I thought doing a different dress would be fun plus it was already on her and I was feeling a touch lazy. Of course I didn't look at the AG Facebook page before I took pictures.....fail. So much for originality right? But oh well, I'm doing it anyway! It must be serendipity or something.

Anyway this is Addy's blue dress:

According to AG it's made out of  a pale blue cotton.  Unfortunately I don't know enough about sewing to tell you all about the construction of this dress. I just know that I love the pleating and the growth stripes!

It velcros down the back:

And here is a peek at the inside:
I really love the fabric they used for this dress! It has very subtle horizontal stripes and it's this delicate shade of blue that just looks amazing next to her skin. It's also very light weight so I imagine it would be very comfortable on a hot summer day.

The dress comes with a wide gingham ribbon.
I'm so glad I don't have to decide what ribbons go with what dress because I would never have put these two together. But I love the way the ribbon looks with the dress! It's perfect. I swear Addy has the best hair ribbons.

And now for the real reason anyone reads these things! The pictures:
This dress was called the Flower Picking dress up until last year and came with a bouquet. Before that I believe it was the Kite Flying outfit and came with a kite obviously. I may eventually look for the kite on eBay but for now I'm happy just to have this dress!
We can make our own bouquets!

This is my very favorite one!
This dress is one of my absolute favorites. I know I say that a lot but MAN I'm in love with this thing! Addy looks so stunning in it! If you don't have this yet, trust me you need it.

Quick update on Sam:
He's had his old wig removed and now he's getting all of his bad tattoos removed too! He's also sporting a very fashionable blue beanie until his wig comes. Which will hopefully be soon!

Till next time!

    1. Thank you!

      It hasn't yet. At least I haven't been contacted yet if it has. I think I'm going to email them tomorrow or something!

  2. That's a great dress. I love the softness of that photo in front of the tree, head turned to the right with just a little sunlight coming through - it's perfect for that outfit (and for Addy!).

    And good luck with the project doll! :)
