Review on #49 Paige

We posted a picture of Paige on Instagram a couple days ago, and we had a request to do a review on her.  Enjoy!
#49 has medium skin, black-brown wavy hair, and blue eyes.  She also has the Classic Facemold.

 Her eyes are the standard blue that they use for all blue-eyed MyAG's except for #24.

 Paige's black-brown hair next to Chrissa's dark brown hair.

 Although, from afar, the difference in the color is not as noticeable.  She can wear the dark brown hair pieces from AG without a problem.

Paige's hair is really silky and soft.  We think it might actually be Sonali's hair, so if you have Sonali, compare her hair to Paige's.  Her hair can be brushed or picked, and you can brush it out straight like below,

 

 Or twist the hair into curls.

 

 

Paige looks good in EVERYTHING.  Seriously.  Here are a few versatile outfits where you can decide for yourself.

 Kanani's Meet Outfit

 Pretty & Plaid Outfit

 

So, all in all, we have no complaints about buying #49.  She looks good in everything and is very photogenic.  Her hair is very easy to manage, unlike a lot of curly-haired dolls.  Her eyes are a bright shade of blue, and if you are cought between #49 and #60, buy #49, because #49's skin tone really pops with her eyes, while #60's light skin can't really compare.  #49's hair will also hold hairstyles better because of the wavy texture of it.  Although if you really want #60, don't let anything stop you because she really is a gorgeous doll!  In our opinion, #49 is the doll from AG who looks most like Katniss because she has olive skin, dark brown/black hair, and from certain angles, her eyes look grey.  Sorry, we were kind of rambling there for a bit!  Also, a new blog design is coming shortly, watch for it!

New AG Releases: From Love it to Leave it

Yay, the new AG Releases are out!!  You have probably read so many of these, but we are going to make one also, with Sam and Liz telling you what they think as well!  So, we present our very first...Mini Doll Musing!  With all four of us telling us what we think.  We're not really going to review the Bitty Baby stuff, though, because that would take too long.

Tarynn:  Shorts and leggings?  Seriously?  I would honestly buy this though, and use the leggings for a different outfit.
Valorie: I like it, but I don't think the leggings should go with the outfit.  The leggings are cute though.
Sam: Oh my! This is hideous! If anyone buys this I will sue! I do like the shoes though:)
Liz:  Yikes.  None of the big dolls should ever wear that.


Tarynn:  Kind of McKenna knock-offy, but a good marketing move for people who missed it last year.
Valorie: I like this idea because I was sad I didn't get the bar and beam last year.
Sam:  We could have a party on this thing!
Liz:  This looks fun to climb on!


Tarynn:  Same as above.
Valorie:  I liked McKenna's better, but oh well I might buy this.
Sam:  It has pink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Liz:  I like the colours better than McKenna's.


Tarynn:  This is really cute!  I want this!
Valorie:  It's okay, wouldn't be first on my list.
Sam:  That doll is pretty.
Liz:  The shoes look awesome!


Tarynn:  Cool, but overpriced.
Valorie:  That is way better than the other spa chair! Making a new wishlist!
Sam:  Pink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Liz:  This would make a good jungle gym.

Tarynn:  I guess this is more to make the doll the stylist instead of the girl...  It should come with a brush though.
Valorie:  I like the idea the dolls could do the mini doll's hair.
Sam:  Julie could do my hair!! I love having my hair done.
Liz:  Whatever

Tarynn:  It's ok, but it's overpriced.
Valorie:  This is cool.
Sam:   I hate it. Blah
Liz:  Good jungle gym!


Tarynn:  This is cute, but not really on the wish list.
Valorie:  I love the boots, but don't like the jacket.
Sam:  It's a no no.
Liz:  The coat looks fun to play in.

Tarynn:  The inner tube is just like Chrissa's, but the snowman is cute.
Valorie:  I like the snowman:)
Sam:  I like snow. This thing is awesome.
Liz:  I want it!  The snowman looks very friendly!


Tarynn:  Really pretty!
Valorie:  This dress is pretty.
Sam:  It would be prettier if it were pink.
Liz:  Meh.

Tarynn:  I love this outfit!  I have to get it!
Valorie:  This is sooo pretty! I love it!
Sam:  I like the shoes.
Liz:  It's pretty.  They should make it mini-doll sized.

Tarynn:  This is really cute, and I hope I have time to get it.
Valorie:  This is cute, and I like purple.  This is definitely a yes.
Sam:  The skirt is pretty.
Liz:  Same as last one.


Tarynn:  The facemold is creepy, and the price has skyrocketed.  Not liking this at all.
Valorie:  Wow.  The price really went up.  Eek.
Sam:  This is pink! It's soo pretty.  Well at least the outfit is.  The doll looks somewhat disturbing.
Liz:  They look like aliens.

So, that's our thoughts on the New AG Releases, and when this poll is over, we'll put up a new one asking what you think about them!
Thanks,
