Our Generation Retro

I have a confession.  I have not always been very keen on the Our Generation doll clothes.  
BUT, I have seen some items lately that I think are great.
I saw this dress on Pinterest and I fell in love!  


I went to my Target and, as usual, they did not have it.  So I ordered from the website.
This  the 'To a Tea Retro' outfit and I love it.

 I tried it on April first.  She definitely looks good in blue!

Cute straw hat.

 Handkerchief and lace gloves.

 It also comes with this teacup and macaroons.

The pink crinoline matches the pink shoes.

I love the big bow on the collar.

Next I tried it on Grace. 
This blue becomes her as well.

On Grace this dress reminds me of some fabrics I saw in Hawaii.

I remember wearing gloves to church
when I was a little girl.

Very pretty.

I also recently picked up this Retro set.
The OG Park Day Set

It comes with a blanket, radio, sunglasses and a book of poetry. 

The radio plays 6 songs.

The poetry book is empty, but maybe the girls will fill it up?

And these cute sunglasses with a rose on each eye.

Grace is feeling Retro!

Our Harmony Club Doll needs a name

I have decided that we should keep this little girl, but I can't
settle on a name.  Here are some more photos of her to help.
Here she is with Skyler and Emma. 
She looks a little shy to me.

I went over her hair with the wig conditioner spray
again and it looks shinier.

Lily?
Annabelle?

April?
Amelia?

Allysa?
Briana?

Callie?

I keep finding 'A' names, hm.

Any Ideas?

Thank you all for your help.  She is - 

April Briana-Mae

Another Thrift Doll

I found this doll thrifting. 
 At first glance I thought she was a 'My Life As' Doll, 
but she is a Harmony Club Doll.
I was attracted to her curly hair.
I looked up Harmony Club Dolls but didn't find out much.

Since this post I did find a good post about Harmony club dolls.  Here it is:
Harmony Club Dolls

She has a sweet face but strange lip color.

She has a wig and the hair seems pretty good.
Not to AG standards, but not bad.
Her body is made from a polyester fabric.
 Her limbs are loose but she can stand on her own.

Her hair is a bit tangled.
I am hoping to make an improvement here.

I brushed out the worst of the tangles and washed her hair.

My usual go-to for doll hair, wig shampoo and conditioner.

After her wash I brushed her hair into curls.
I left her alone until her hair dried.

I changed her lip color to something slightly rosier.


Here she is!!

 Her hair is quite long.

Hair is not silky like AG but I like her curls.
