So yesterday I went out into the world and tried to buy some Halloween spirit. I failed. We're too close to Halloween for there to be a lot of awesome stuff left (boo) and honestly, this year it looked like no one really got a lot of NEW stuff. Hell, most of it looked like they recycled last year's stuff and threw in a case of new stuff (that naturally sold out or was crap) and called it a year before moving on to pumping out Christmas stuff.

Anyway, by the time we made it home, I had a raging headache which means that by the time I got [livejournal.com profile] irishgypsie's suggestions for AG dress-up, I wasn't exactly in the best place to do much more than point, click, and pray. :P She suggested Saige for the blue dress and Nellie for Samantha's new holiday dress.



We start with Nellie, who was previously lounging around in Rebecca's PJs and robe.

I think I woke her up, actually. She was dozing on Kirsten's shoulder. Bows and Nellie's hair are a strange mix, man.

Better, I think. I bought this when it appeared on the list of things not surviving the BF launch. I think the color is lovely on Nellie. Alas, I'm not as big a fan of Rebecca's PJs.

Time to swap her into Samantha's outfit.

She's not wearing the tights because I'm too lazy to swap out tights for all the various dolls who have been trying this on. Anyway, these are the boots. They're very soft and petable but they look awfully silly. They do have a slight heel, too.

Also, the combo of the boots and the dress makes the dress look even shorter without tights entering the equation. The dress isn't all that short but the boots give the illusion that it is.

Mug shot?

Nellie wandered back to the balcony area. She very kindly didn't fuss at my stupid hairstyling because, like I said, headache.

Nellie is awfully wary of the cat.

It's my LJ and I'll share all the pictures I want. :p

Ultimately I think she looks cuter in this than I thought she would. I'm not entirely sold on the neckline of this but it's only bothered me on Nellie so I'm not sure.

Blue dress on Saige!

Shoes first. With flash.

Flash shows the little squiggles the sequins are sewn in.

Saige!

Over in front of the balcony.

Saige really is meant for autumn, eh?

So you can see the hem. I really love this dress but holy geez, is it a weird shade of blue to try and photograph or even look at for a prolonged period of time.

I love this on Saige, maybe as much as the purple dress she wore last year. The blue makes her hair look redder than it is and it makes her eyes sparkle. I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of people putting their Saiges and #61's in this dress this year or next.


Finally:

Sneak peek at the next round! Which was actually the first round!

The blue dress is gorgeous. And if the blue shoes came in adult people sizes I would try to rock them so hard. Your dolls are basically 17 shades of adorable.

There would be no trying in the rocking of people sized blue shoes, there would just be "Tada! I am fantabulous and these shoes are, too!"

Thankies! The dolls do try to be adorable and I try to catch it when I can.

I love this blue dress. If they had it in adult-people sizes with sleeves... I'd be so tempted. So very tempted.

Adorable! The blue dress is a must have, but I think I can pass on Sam's dress. Which is good because I was cringing at having to buy the overpriced tea set just to get it anyway. I will be getting the 80s tastic lavender hot mess at some point for when I create my 1980s historical, but that may be a ways off (what with Christmas coming up I must budget my extra money). But Josefina will look amazeballs in that blue dress, so yes, it will be mine. :D
