Fashion Fun: Nanea in Maryellen's Play Outfit

Trudy here. By popular request (in other words, Nanea has been pestering me to start this), the Islandshire Gazette is now going to feature a regular column about fashion! Several of the little girls here like to change their clothes a lot (Nanea, in particular), so it might be helpful to other girls to see photos of the outfits when trying to decide if it will really suit their personality! Starting out today, we have Maryellen's Play Outfit, modeled by Nanea.

This is a classic summer ensemble with lightweight denim capris, a white cotton sleeveless blouse trimmed in red gingham, a red gingham hair tie, and shiny white pumps. The shirt and pumps are embroidered with cherries. Nanea opted not to tie the gingham hair tie in her hair, because she prefers tropical flowers . . . but it works great on pony tails, braids or a variety of styles.

The pants have an elastic waist band and no velcro. Two thumbs up on that one! They are not too tight on Nanea, but on the older, larger dolls, it might be a snug fit. The shirt closes with velcro down the front and is not tight on Nanea, so it would probably fit all but the very large dolls.
