Store Photos of GotY 2015 Items for Grace

For Grace Doll
 
Sightseeing Outfit
Sightseeing Accessories
Sweet Hairstyles Set
(The store had the 3 sets displayed together so all the photos are a mix of these 3 sets.)
 
This was the first thing to greet me when I walked into the Grace section. I had a hard time not laughing out loud.

Back of outfit. The cape from the accessories has no velcro. You have to pull it over her head to get it on. Skirt also has no velcro and slips on via elastic power.

Front of cape from accessories. As you can see there is no velcro on this side either. I think it may be a hassle for some to pull it over her head each time they use it, especially if the doll has curly hair.

Boots from Accessories. Made from shiny plastic. It feels very plasticy which is why I mention it.

Closes in the back with velcro. The white heart is actually embroidered on, not printed.

Close up of skirt from the outfit. The waistband in the front does not sport the lovely elastic.

The skirt is made of 3 layers. A top layer of tulle with felt polka dots, a second layer of just plain white tulle, and a their layer which is the white, cotton underskirt.

Of course Grace must have her tag on her outfit.

XD These "groovy" glasses.

SO GROOVY

I pulled back the cape here so the outfit can be seen better.


I personally like the bow but for those who don't grab your scissors because it's one quick snip from falling off.

The sequin decorations are only on the front side.

The headband is from the hairstyles set but it's a really plain, piece of curved, black plastic. No decoration/embellishing at all.

*snort* Pfffftttttt

Here are more pieces of the hairstyles set and the shoes from the outfit.

Close up of shoes from the Sightseeing outfit. I know many people are not a fan but I think they're really cute and prefer them to the boots from the accessories.

Grace is wearing the hair clip in bow here. This is what it looks like from the side. It's a little awkward because it looks pretty obvious it's not a part of her hair.
 
It's better from the front, but even then... Still I do think it's cute, and definitely is the highlight piece from the sweet hairstyles set. Only problem is it's really really really expensive for what you get.

The hair bow is attached to a clip.

So is the ribbon bow. It doesn't look too hard to make by hand.

  1. No pics of the store exclusive pastry set? Darn, that was the one thing I was really hoping to see. :(

    1. Just to reply to the person who says I'm "complaining" about there not being pictures of the pastry set, I was not complaining, I was merely stating a fact, no need to get your knickers in a twist, dear. Apparently a lot of people are interested in this set and are probably wondering the same thing I am. Making no mention of it at all just adds to people's confusion, especially as it now appears not all the stores got them in time for the release. If it wasn't in stock at the store, a simple note saying it wasn't available at that store to be photographed would have been appreciated. :)

  2. I don't care for the boots but do like the striped top and tulle skirt. I'm not sure about the red shrug just yet. The hair doo-dads don't thrill me, either. They could do a lot with the black & white Paris theme and this is a bit blah. But I do like the top & skirt!

    1. Hahaha I think it's one of Grace's best outfits! :D Did you just get the outfit or did you pick up accessories as well?

  5. I would not have been able to leave without this purchase if there was a Matching Outfit For Girls. I am also super hurt there is not a Girls Coat to match Grace's. I purchased 3 coats for Our Grace, Maddie and Ella and My Dream was to purchase the Matching Girls Coat if available after the Movie . I was also hurt that there was no sound track to purchase after the Movie like it was last year. On the Bonus Bon Shirt, if they sold one to match for Dolls I would have purchased. So they missed the mark for me. But, it is not late. May this dream will come true!!! Please pass the word on for Me.

    1. I'm also surprised there aren't matching girls/dolls sets. It seemed like that would be an outfit that would be popular with young girls. There will be a soundtrack released, but I believe it's coming out on June 23rd, the same time as the movie so you can order it then. ^_^
