Saige's Sweater Outfit

So, I finally got around to taking some pictures of Saige in her sweater outfit so that I could do a quick review of it.

Overall, I really love this outfit- it's very similar to something that I myself would wear. I wear cardigans and tank tops on a daily basis, and yes, I do wear sandals and flip flops in the winter with my sweaters!

 

 





I love the design of the sweater- the geometric print is very in right now, so I think AG was right on target with that. My only problem with the sweater is the way it lays- I have a very hard time getting it to lay right on my Saige. And by right, I mean the way AG shows it. I don't mind the way it looks in this photo- in real life, a sweater isn't going to lay just so, so I guess for me, it isn't even that big of a problem.

 

I think Saige's necklace from her accessories goes beautifully with her sweater outfit- the blue just looks great with the colors in the sweater and the white tank top.

 

 

The tank top is very cute, with it's subtle lace pattern, but it's also see through. If you aren't really looking, you may not notice it, but if it were something that I was wearing, I would have a camisole underneath. Miss Saige, though, can get away without one.

 

 

The leggings look great with the outfit- the tank top is just the right length to pair with the leggings, in my opinion. I also love Saige's sandals, and think they look nice with the outfit. I know not everyone likes the look of sandals with a sweater, but I also think that Saige's boots from her meet dress would look adorable with this outfit, though I don't have any pictures of them together.

 

Saige's ring looks good with all of her outfits, so of course it looks good with her sweater outfit.

 



 

I also think that Saige's bracelet looks nice with the outfit. I usually don't like reds and pinks together, butthe different shades in the sweater look great together, and I think the bracelet completes her outfit.

 

In other news, I found a darling little kite at Target in their Easter section that's the perfect size for AG dolls. Here's a picture of Saige with the Snow White one that I got:

 

 

I originally bought the kite for myself, but when I got it home, I realized that it was the perfect size for AG! I did an indoor photoshoot with Saige and her new kite, since it was too dark to go outside. I'll probably share some of those photos soon.

 

I also just did a downy dunk on my Samantha, and my sisters' Kirsten and Josephina. I took some pictures, but they're on my sister's camera that she takes to class (I wonder what her classmates thought when she plugged the memory card in and those pictures popped up? lol). I'll hopefully be sharing those as soon as I can borrow my sister's memory card for a little bit.

 

That's all for today,

Disappointed

Just wanted to share that Hot Topic sent me an e-mail informing me that the tank top I ordered is no longer available, and that I won't be receiving it. I've never had any problems with their company before, but am beyond disappointed with them about this.

 

I feel very strongly that if they didn't have it, they should have never let it re-appear on the website. They are refunding me my money, though it's funny, because the e-mail they sent me made it sound as if they were doing me a favor by refunding money for a product I won't be receiving.

 

I sent them an e-mail letting them know how disappointed I was.

 

I truly hope that in the future I can be satisfied with the company again.

 

That's all for today,

Beauty and the Beast Tank Top

I'm so excited I just had to share! I've been stalking Hot Topic ever since I found out they had a Beauty and the Beast tank top. Unfortunately for me, it was sold out in every size except xsmall when I first saw it, and then has been just plain sold out for the past two weeks.

 

Yesterday, it popped up for sale in an xlarge, but I needed a large. I checked again tonight, and they had the large in stock!!

 

Here is a crazy small picture of it, since it was the only one I could get on their website:

 

 

The tank top isn't shown with their other Disney shirts- I've been using this link to keep tabs on it.

 

It ended up being $26 after tax and shipping, and normally, I wouldn't even pay that much for a dress, and most definitely not for a tank top, but since Beauty and the Beast is my favorite movie, I had to make an exception for this tank top!

 

I'm going to be stalking the poor mail lady until it gets here!

 

In other news, I went and bought some Downy fabric softener today to give my sister and I's childhood AG dolls a downy dunk while I'm home for spring break. Hopefully all goes well with my venture- I'll definitely be posting some pictures of the process!

 

That's all for today,

New Disney Sephora Collection

I logged onto Sephora today and was very excited to see that the next Disney collection has been released. Who is volume two's featured princess? Jasmine!

 

I went ahead and ordered the large pallette as soon as I saw it- it features fifteen different eye shadows, a blush and a bronzer. The colors are rich jewel tones, befitting of our favorite desert princess.

I'm loving the bright colors!

 

Unfortunately for me, the rest of her collection has to wait to come home, but I thought I'd share the main components with you.

It may just be the perfume bottle collector in me, but I LOVE this bottle! I'll have to wait to see if it's any good until the next time I hit up the mall, though. This is a shimmer version, but it's also available in a roller and a regular bottle.

I adore this little pallette, and I think it'll probably be coming home after one of my next paychecks.

 Some bold eye liner that I really want to try out.

And some beautiful nail polish- I'm a purple and pink nail polish fan, so I really love the first three colors in this collection!

 

I really hope to get the majority of her collection, since I was only able to get the large eye pallette and the nail polish from the Cinderella collection.

To see everything, here's the collection page.

Introducing Saige!

So, my birthday was on the 5th, and I spent my birthday money on a new addition to my doll collection- Saige! Since I'm currently waiting for the laundry to finish and I've since given up on my History midterm study guide(hey, I did about half of it!), I decided to share some of the pictures I took when she got back from Tyson's last week.

These aren't the best photos- they were taken in my wonderfully small dorm room, with only one window in a kinda awkward spot. Half are taken with flash, and half are taken with the limited natural lighting. I hope to get some better photos when I'm at home this weekend, and hopefully do a review of what's in her starter collection.

 

 

 

 

 



That's all for today!

Celebrating 14 Years

My 21st birthday was on Tuesday, February 5. On my 7th birthday, my grandmother gave me my first 'big girl' doll, Samantha. I was introduced to American Girl through Samantha. It's hard to believe that I've had her for 14 years! To celebrate, we went outside and had a photoshoot today.

 

I'm just going to share a few of my favorites from the shoot. Her hair is currently in desperate need of a downy dunk, but unfortunately she can't get one done until my spring break rolls around.

The full album is located here.

 

Well, that's all for today.

A Quick Work Break

I feel like I've been doing nothing but homework since I got home from school Thursday night. I wrote my first thesis proposal tutorial paper, did background research on Atlanta, GA (which typed is about 10 pages long- we just did some copy and pasting for now, but it still took hours!), gathered my sources for my thesis proposal for tomorrow, and now, I'm working on a case study for my presentational communications course this Wednesday.

 

The only plus side to all this work was watching the first season of Digimon while I did it- I have to have something on tv when I do my homework, so this weekend I re-watched the boxed set I got last fall. For any Digimon fans out there, I highly recommend it! I believe WalMart has it online for the best price I've seen. Amazon also has the pre-order for the season 2 boxed set up- I pre-ordered for $60, which is $20 off the normal $80 price tag. This series totally captured my heart as a child, and I love being able to rewatch it- I was actually surprised when I realized just how dark some of the episodes are! And to think- we watched that as kids!

 

In other news, I did a little dolly shopping on Friday- I received some Christmas money last weekend, and chose to spend it on two dresses for my dolls.

Available here for $22 through the end of today, normally $28.

My NOLA girls are currently my favorite dolls- I've always loved Marie-Grace, and couldn't wait to get her. When Jill's Steals and Deals had both dolls on sale, though, I purchased Cecile (my mom had gotten MG for Christmas, and she was hiding away in the closet). When I opened her, I fell completely in love with her, which I wasn't expecting to happen. When I saw Cece's dress was on sale, I knew I definitely wanted to get it, and after a little flip-flopping, decided to get MG her skirt set. I can't wait for them to arrive so I can try them on my girls! I'll definitely be sharing pictures once they arrive. I also bought the sparkly hair pick, so I'll finally have something to help me fix Cece's hair if it gets messed up.

 

I had wanted to do some photo shoots with my girls this weekend (Molly was all ready for the snow in her skating outfit and accessories!), but had far too much homework. Hopefully we'll get some snow soon so that I can take some of my girls outside for some photography fun!

 

That's all for now,
