Aha!

I went to target the other day with my mom. She and my brother went to look for clothes and I dashes off to the Our Generation section, hoping that the Hip To Be Square outfit was there. It was! And so was the Jumping for Joy romper thingie! I hadn't expected that because I hadn't found it anywhere online recently. I love OG clothing, but if there is one thing they could improve, it would be the consistency. Numerous people have expressed their dissatisfaction over the fact that what's online isn't the same as what's in the store, which isn't the same as what's in the store one city over. It is very frustrating. 

Rylan is modeling the Jumping for Joy outfit. There is a scarf and shoes (icky OG plastic kind) too, but we're only showing the cutest parts here.

Here is the lace part at the top.

The whole thing. It's kind of a grandma style pattern put into a new fun style. (Actually I have no idea if rompers are anything new, but I haven't seen them a whole lot before 2014.) It's not a very  modest outfit, if you are concerned about your dolls following average school dress code thing about adequately covering thighs. They are very short, if that is something you worry about. 

The sweater is my favorite part. It's lightweight and vibrant red (doesn't close, by the way). It'll be great for mix and match.

It's a tad see-through.

The sleeves are actually long enough to do the tie-y thing! Most AG long sleeve sweaters won't do this.

Andie is showing us the Hip To Be Square outfit. It had come with a red and yellow cardigan. I haven't tried it on anyone yet-I'll have to let you all know how it looks. This romper is a tad longer, simpler, and less form fitting. The bows at the shoulder are too big for my taste, but I'm sure I could find a away around that.

You can see the difference in length and style here.

Since I ran out of things to say about clothes, let's talk about what's going on lately.

My language arts teacher hates Thor with a white hot fury (I think it's because he doesn't have a built up skill set like Iron Man or Hawkeye, he just relies on godly powers and a stupid hammer). So I printed out a bunch of tiny pictures of Thor and taped them all over his classroom. He found them and told me I was disgraceful (which is Rush code for "that's awesome, but I still hate Thor"). What he didn't know was that I had folded one up and stuck it in the mouth hole of his coffee cup and put down the flap. Apparently he doesn't wash his coffee cup lid, cause he told me that the next morning he got a mouthful to thor instead of coffee.

so much win.

Have you ever pulled a prank on a teacher?

I have been reading The Carpet People (another Terry Pratchett book) while I wait for The Light Fantastic to come. It's pretty good. It's about a bunch of tribes of people who live in a carpet in a house, it seems.

It's easier to follow when you have a short attention span, but also less funny. (than discworld)

I'm still wondering if I should give Rylan blue eyes and if that would be cool or weird. What I really want is deep purple eyes, but they don't make that sort of thing. : (

And while we're talking about doll customization, I found a wig from Etsy that I want to order! I can't wait 'till I get to start customizing.

I probably should have edited this one so the whites don't stand out so much. : /

So how have you all been? Sorry I haven't been commenting much, but I have read every post.
