*A Note from the Human: We have yet to purchase any of Blaire's collection. This is merely our opinions from what we've seen in videos and the AG website. We may update with a new post if we do get any of it.*
Hey everyone, Lily Anna here with my first post of Lily Reviews. I've always wanted to be a newspaper reporter just like Kit Kittredge. She's a big inspiration to me and I hope to get a doll of her the future.
*Note from The Human: Mini doll, not the actual doll!*
You're OBSESSED with Kit, Lily.
Can I just start the review, without distractions, please, Ellie? Go read your Grace book or something. I'm trying to review Blaire's collection!
Can I do some input on her fashion? Pleeeeeeease?
Okay, fine! Let's begin. We shall start with the small stuff.
First we have Blaire's piglet and lamb. The piglet retails at $20 and the lamb for $25.
I think the piglet is really cute. Being a farm girl at heart I'd love a pet pig.
But pigs are SO messy! They roll in MUD, Lily! We don't need muddy footprints in our room, Lily!
We do already have two dogs with muddy paws...
Cheri does not have muddy paws! Tiny is your dog, your muddy paw problem.
*Sighs* Ellie, chill. You're job is to comment on Blaire's fashion, not how messy animals are.
Now then, let's continue.
Ah, yes, the lamb. Can't forget the lamb. It's name is Penelope. It's really cute I guess but I think the piglet could be cuter...
Okay, seriously, if you had to chose just ONE, which would it be?
The piglet, obviously! It's $5 cheaper and super cute.
Now then, let's move on to...
Blaire's Garden Set. Honestly, I think $50 is a little pricey for what comes in it. But the Silkie Chicken, Dandelion (Dandy for short) is so cute! Plus it has a removable nesting box, a nest, and eggs! The only other stuff is six plants to plant: Basil, Chives, Dill, Lavender, Primroses and Marigolds; Six plant markers, the planter box, a shovel and a watering can, and a basket.
I hate gardening, it's SO messy! But at the same time I love primroses and lavender and marigolds!
Next up is Blaire's accessories. This is definitely on our, err, Ellie's wishlist. It retails at $30 but we'll be keeping an eye out for a sale first!
Yes! I'd love to have this! It's fabulous! The canvas tote is super cute and I'd carry all the stuff in it! The light pink tablet is definitely a must have. It comes with 2 double sided screens showing the Pleasant Valley Farms website, a recipes website, a Pinterest type website to look up party ideas and the home page. Then theres a cute pink clipboard to hold a party planning notebook and stickers for the mood board. I love planning parties so I would love this! There's also a matching pink calligraphy pen, a Pleasant Valley Farms postcard, and a bouquet of lavender!
Thanks for taking over that one, Ellie. *sarcasm*
We've finally made it to Blaire's fashion...
First up is the In Bloom Pajamas, which which retail for $24.
I love the shad shade of purple these are! And the pattern on the shorts are fabulous! Plus, it comes with purple pom pom slippers! Definitely a must-have!
Next is Blaire's Bridesmaid Dress which retails at $36.
Somewhat pricey but super cute! The pale blue is gorgeous and lace is totally IN! The outfit comes with a pink flowered headband, a velvet choker necklace, and bedazzled flats!
Now we have the Floral Flair Outfit, which retails at $28.
This is one of the ugliest outfits I've seen. The light orange zigzag headband and sandals are cute, and the purple leggings are OK, but the tunic shirt?
Just bows - Go ahead.
Just buttons? - Ok.
Bows AND Buttons? - Never! N-E-V-E-R E-V-E-R!
Alright, calm down Ellie and let's move on to the Gardening Outfit. It retails for $32.
Pricey but cute! The shirt would look great with anything! The overalls? Totally IN! The green rain boots and green choker necklace really look great too!
Next we have the Gardening Accessories, definitely a must if you got the garden. They retail at $20. Comes with a floral print apron, a straw hat, and gardening gloves.
Now we are up to the BIG sets.
Blaire's Party Decor, retails at $85.
It's a little pricey considering I don't think most of what it comes with would be particularly useful. The arbor with the flower decorations and orchid curtains would only be useful for a Blaire or Party themed photo shoot. The three tier cake is probably the best part. It can become a one, two, or three tier cake and has 3 different cake toppers. It also comes with 2 cake slices to serve on "love" plates. There's a bronze cake stand, matching cake servse and 2 forks. The table has a purple tablecloth that can be taken off, therefore the table could be used for anything. There's also a bouquet of flowers, heart shaped notebook and wish vase.
On to Blaire's Family Farm Restaurant, which retails at $300.
It comes with a lot of cute stuff, but I'd rather DIY one considering the price.
And finally.... Blaire Wilson herself!
Her red hair and green eyes are gorgeous, and we might just have to DIY a bumblebee dress and bandanna bracelet!
