Photos of GOTY 2016 Lea Clark Green Parrot Romper on Dolls

A while back, we posted about a leaked Green Tropical Parrot Romper for next year's 2016 Girl of the Year, Lea Clark. Recently, a follow collector has sent us some photos of the romper modeled on her doll for us to share.

*Please do not repost/share/claim these images without written permission.*

A full list of links to all the leaks/rumors/photos/info about next year's Girl of the Year 2016 Lea Clark is at the bottom of the post.

Collector's Photos modeled on Caroline:
The sandals are not a part of this outfit.

The green seems brighter and more saturated than it appeared in the eBay photos. 

I originally thought the background of the romper was white, but now I can see the background is actually a light green. I like this a lot, and it makes the outfit less "kiddy" and "crazy" for me.

I don't think the bow is a functional bow and I believe the outfit is all in one piece, though it would be neat if the tank top and shorts part were separate. 

Lea Clark's ego tag. ^_^ Gotta have that ego.

Kanani is wearing the romper in this photo and I think she looks just stunning in it! The colors are very flattering on her and I'm excited to see how they will compliment the Lea doll. 

Caroline came as a surprise to me. I was not expecting to like the outfit on her and imagined that the bold, bright colors would wash out her light coloring. However, I am very pleased to be wrong. I think it looks lovely on her (though I do prefer it on Kanani more). The green of the romper seems to bring out the green in her eyes. This romper is really growing on me now that I've seen it modeled on a doll. Kudos to AG for creating a piece that is flattering on a wide variety of doll phenotypes!
My vote? I'm putting this one down in the "most likely will buy but preferably on sale" category.

Photos of Pink/Yellow Tunic Outfit for GOTY 2016 Lea Clark on Dolls

A fellow collector has sent me photos of the Yellow/Pink Tunic Top Outfit (rumored to be for Girl of the Year 2016, Lea Clark) on her dolls and some close up images of the details to share here. The outfit is modeled on Kanani & Truly Me #33 dolls.

*Please do not repost/share/claim the images without written permission.*

At the bottom of the post is a full list of links to all the info/leaks/rumors/photos of next year's 2016 Girl of the Year character, Lea Clark.

Original EBay Listing Photos:

Back

Collector's Photos on Dolls:
Modeled on Truly Me #33 doll.

Modeled on Kanani doll.

Close up of decal design on shirt.

It looks like the designs go all the way around the sleeves though not on the back of the shirt.

The denim shorts have a basic design which is great because they can be paired with numerous other outfits.

On the back of the shorts you can see the Lea Clark ego tag. I'm disappointed there aren't pockets on the back because that would have made a lot of sense for shorts.

Love these sandals! They are my favorite part of this outfit and look both detailed, well made, and unique. I think they have the bonus of looking good with any of Lea's clothing.

I think the outfit is pretty generic and standard, but I do like how it looks on both #33 and Kanani, though I prefer it on Kanani. Right now, I'm still not 100% certain this top is for Lea because it seems hard for me to imagine her in long sleeves in the Amazon, especially since the rest of her outfits are sleeveless (except for her short sleeve Explorer/Hiking outfit). However, if this is part of her collection, I do think it is flattering. 
My vote? I put it in the "Will buy if on sale" category. ^_^

Photos of Purple Tie Dye Dress for GOTY 2016 Lea Clark on Dolls

A fellow AG enthusiast has very kindly sent me photos of the Purple Tie Dye Dress that was leaked on eBay a while back and rumored to be for the Girl of the Year 2016, Lea Clark, to share here. The outfit is modeled on Kanani & Caroline dolls.

*Please do not repost/share/claim the images without written permission.*

Original EBay Listing Photos:

Front


Back

Collector's Photos on Dolls:
Modeled on Kanani doll.

Modeled on Caroline doll.
The jacket does not come with the outfit and is only there to show what it would look like with the straps covered. I do prefer it this way as I am not a fan of the strap style on this dress.


I'm still not a fan of the shoulder straps. It looks like they were sewn down into the bow shape.

The straps just don't appear balanced with the rest of the outfit, especially the style of the elastic neckline.

Here is the embroidered "Lea Clark" symbol that is also on her messenger bag.

I am disappointed by the sandals. They do not match up to what I have come to expect from AG in terms of aesthetics and quality. To my eyes, they look very plasticy/rubbery.

Kanani in outfit.

Thus far, I feel like this is the least appealing Lea Clark outfit for me, though I hope it is a success with children. The tie dye is a cute concept but I don't think it was executed well in the dress. Instead, it comes off looking baggy and poorly designed.
My vote? In the "will not buy even if on sale" category.

In Store Winter Exclusives for Girls & New PWP

American Girl is continuing its tradition of offering store exclusive accessories for girls with its winter themed sets that are now available to purchase in stores. If you are not near a store and would still like to buy one of these items, you can contact a Personal Shopper at the store and they can ship it to you. ^_^

I was in a bit of a rush while taking these photos so my memory on the prices are a bit hazy. If there is a (?) next to a price, that is one I am uncertain of. If you see any errors, please let me know! Thank you!

*Update 11/7/2015 - Prices have all been confirmed. ^_^

These two stands are the display. There is a back side as well with the rest of the items.

Believe Stocking - $15
Earring & Necklace Sets - $10

Believe Stocking - $15
Dream Stocking- $15

Stockings have a red, velvet hang loop.

Close up of hang loop on stockings.

Earrings - $10

Back of Earrings card

Wish Necklace - $10

Earrings - $10

Love Necklace - $10

All scarves - $12
Gold Handbag - $20

Fluffy Cream Scarf - $12
*Infinity scarf

Red hats - $12
*The jewel studs are only on the front side of the hat, not the back. *
Red Scarf - $12
*The scarf is an infinity scarf and SO soft. ^_^*
Red Ear Muffs - $12
Red Mittens - $12

Gold Hat - $12
*Same story, jewel studs on one side only.*
Spotted Scarf - $12
*To infinity and beyond!*
Gold Mittens - $12

Gold spotted ear muffs - $12


Gold Heart Purse - $20

The quality was really nice! It's very sturdy, and despite glitter being craft herpes, I played with the purse but didn't notice any gold glitter on my hands afterwards. Not sure how long that will last. XD

The inside is pretty spacious (aka the heart is pretty plump in capacity). There is a cord inside which you can attach to wear as a purse instead of clutch.

Bling Bling Headphones - $25

SO MUCH BLING.

Spotted Star Cushion - $15
Believe Journal - $10

Believe Journal - $10
*The cover is fuzzy, great for falling asleep on, or collecting germs, whichever is your fancy. XD*

In Store Purchase-With-Purchase:
This is one of the holiday in store PWPs, the red Santa Dress. You can buy it for $14 when you spend $50. It comes with just the dress and hat, no shoes. 
The other in store holiday PWP is a light blue Snowflake Dress and only select stores have it. The price is the same.

The dress is make from knit material with faux fur around the wrists. The white stripe is not painted on. It's a separate piece of fabric. 

The red part of the hat is made of knit material like the dress, not fuzzy velvet.

Here is the Blue Snowflake PWP dress, also $14 when you spend $50. The color is a very very very light powder blue with a small snowflake embroidered in the corner. Like the Santa PWP dress, the fabric is a thin, t-shirt like knit material with the faux fur trim at the wrists.
It comes with a faux fur headband elastic. The black flats DO NOT come with the outfit.

Close up of the embroidered snowflake decoration. Other than that, it's very plain.

The back of the headband has elastic to fit over your doll's head. 

Overall, I think it's a cute set together, but the Santa dress for me at least, is more visually interesting. If the blue snowflake dress was the only PWP offered, I do not think I would be interested in it. If you would like to purchase any of the PWPs, give one of the stores a call and order through a Personal Shopper. :) It is a free service with no additional costs, and they also accept the free shipping code currently out TOGETHER15.
