Melody review and Wish List

Hey Guys, Happy Sunday! Today is going to be a thoughtful post... A review of Melody. I know what your thinking... Did she get another? Where is the money coming from? She just got Julie now she is getting melody!?
No, No, NO! I am just reviewing her, I have not gotten her...yet. he he he. So now that we got that clear Let's move onto the review! ( Swipe)

I think Melody is adorable! I am very excited for a textured haired doll, and a darker skinned doll. I love the colors they chose for her, they match her very well. When I first heard about her I was not sure if I wanted her but now I know I want her. So we'll see if I get her or 2017 Girl of the year. (or if I get her for Christmas or my birthday) I like the colors of the dress but I'm not sure if I like the dress. I think the bows on the sides are a little strange. I love the shoes and her headband though!

Um... These accessories are cute... but not necessary. I love the blue color. I like the accessories but not sure the are worth buying.My favorite piece is the purse. I know it is probably how they used to wear it but I don't like how the hat flips up. You can't see the bow! I think the glasses are Okay. And the pin... I think it is nice that they included the pin it really relates to her historical characterization. But, I just don't see me using it. So overall I think this set is cute but not worth $24.

Next is the Fancy Floral Dress. I like the colors of the dress. I like the shoes they look cute. The gloves are okay there is no white anywhere else so they don't match that great but they are okay. And the dress, I watched American Girl Ideas and they described the material as a plastic tablecloth.. I have not felt it for myself but I heard them crinkle the dress and it sounded like a tablecloth too.. So I am not very sold on this dress. I don't like the design either. I think that if the ruffles were longer than it would be better.

Next is the Hairstyling set. I really like this. I think it is cool that they have extra hair to put on her. I like how girl will be able to interact with that feature. I think it is very cool that they clips go on and off so you can decide. The only bad things are that I think it might be a bit hard to put on and make sure that the hair looks natural.And it is a bit pricey for hair. $22, I could almost buy an outfit for her. Also every time you take it off when you put it back on you will have to readjust it to look natural again. Overall I like this piece.

I think this set is so cool! I love how realistic looking this is. I am so happy they included the chair and the music stand. I think it is great that it really works. I like how they put sheet music for all the recorded songs. I love the wall phone too. I am not a huge sticker person but I think girls will enjoy them. I like this set but it is kind of big and pricey so I probably won't end up getting it even though I love it. Overall I think this set is very cool and girls will enjoy it.

I love this! I love this! I love this!! I loved the recording studio except size and cost, So I love this because it is smaller and less expensive! I love you you can still interact with the microphone! And I like that they included sheet music with it as well. I think the tambourine is a nice addition as well. I really like how realistic this microphone looks! I think Melody will have lots of fun singing with her microphone! I hope I can get this set for Melody!

Next is her piano. I think this is a neat addition. I like AG’s baby grand better but think this is cute. I think this would fit right in with Melody’s Microphone. She can sing and play! I like the sheet music included, and how girls can really play the notes. I think it is a bit pricey but not too bad. I think many girls will appreciate this piece. I am not sure i would spend $48 on this item. I think I would prefer my microphone and tambourine.

I REALLY LOVE this outfit! This has to be either my first or second favorite outfit in Melody’s collection! I think these colors look adorable on Melody! I love the buttons and the collar. I think the pom poms on the slippers are so cute! I love her hair in braids and will definitely do that if I get her. I love the pattern on the pajamas The stars are cute! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this!

I think Bojingles is cute. I love the bow on his collar that folds out into a leash! I love his scraggly look to his fur it makes him look so real! I like how Bo’s collar color matches Melody’s dress.
I think Bo in an adorable addition to Melody’s collection.

Umm… let’s talk about this bed. I think it is cute. I like the attached cabinets. The colors are ok. I just cannot picture Melody with this bed. She has so much more personality than this bed brings. It might be better with the accessories which I think should have been included. Overall I think it is cute but not for Melody.

I think these are cute. I think it is nice and realistic to have a book, the freedom march posters go along with her, I understand the radio because she likes to sing so she must like listening to music, the elephant stuffed animal is cute, and the music poster is nice. I don't like how many paper items are in this. I wish there were more real items like trophies or something along those lines. And I wish these were included with Melody’s bed. Other than that they are cute.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this outfit! This is so so so adorable! Words cannot express my deep love for this outfit! This is, along with her pajamas, either my first or second favorite of her collection. I love the striped colors on her top and the color of her shorts matches perfectly. I love the tassels on the bottom of her top. I love the unique style they chose; to cut the bottom zig zag and attach tassels to the end. And the bows in her hair! I love her hair in braids and I love the bows. The shoes are different but still cute, I love how they match the stripes.Overall this is amazing, I have to get it and cannot wait until then.

Next, is her table and chairs set. Umm, Hmmm, uhh… this is interesting. It is very different. The two toned table is cute. The chairs are strange. I really don’t have much to say about this. I don’t really see how this has anything to do with Melody. Maybe there is something in her book about it… Someone tell us in the comments please! I guess she needs somewhere to set her food in the block party set, but I’m not sure how it relates to her otherwise.

This is cute. I am not sure how this relates to her again but it is very cute. I love the bingo set! And the hot dogs are very cute. I love the pies! I think they are adorable!I would like this set.

I love this dress! I love the colors, the style, everything! I really want this outfit! It is my third favorite after her pajamas and her play outfit! This is just so cute! If I got Melody I want this dress to go along with her!

I really love this coat. It reminds me of Caroline’s coat. I think the hat is adorable! I love how well it matches her christmas outfit but is not identical! This will be a fun piece to play around with! I love how it looks on her, it is not my favorite but it is cute! And would most definitely me a neat addition to my collection!

Lastly, her travel accessories! I think these are neat. I think the bathroom box is cute. I think the collapsable cup is very neat and different than most things I’ve seen. I love the red case it is very cute and reminds me of Isabelle's dance box! I think this is a very interesting addition to Melody’s collection!
