Yippee! She’s finally here! I (American Girl Doll Artist) am going to share some of my thoughts on her collection!

Maryellen is so beautiful! I love her curly hair, her bangs… She is just so cute! I also love her meet outfit. It reminds me of lollipops. Her gloves look so dainty, as does her pearl necklace. Her purse is pretty cute too. I am really excited about her books. I don’t think AG has had a new Beforever series since 2011… I will watch my library shelves in hopes of finding her books!

Samanthalover has already called Maryellen. I won’t be buying her. :)

This is sooo cute! I love the candy colors! I probably won’t get this, but I do love it!

I think this is pretty cool! You can actually fit an iPad into it! $85 is a lot though. :\

Maryellen looks pretty cute in this. It is priced on the high side: $60.

Scooter looks pretty nice, but I’m not a big fan of embroidered eyes. They show a decrease in American Girl’s quality.

Purple looks good on Maryellen. I like this dress. It suits her well. The shoes look similar to Samantha’s meet shoes. :) This dress is $32.

I think this is my favorite dress from Maryellen’s collection. It looks so pretty on her. I think this is a must-have for everyone who has Maryellen.

I think this is cute too. I probably won’t get it (since I won’t get the dress to match) but I do like it! This dress for girls is $58.

I almost think this looks like some retro outfit girls could wear today! This is $28. I like the little cherries.

 These pajamas are interesting. I’m not sure what I think of them. They are $24.

I think this looks really good on Maryellen. I love the tulle and the little rose. This is $34.

For $58, this doesn’t come with much. I guess the price depends on how sturdy the table is.

I think this is pretty cool! I love that it lights up, and can play old and modern music. That is, if you plug in your media player. :) I wouldn’t pay $90 for it though.

I don’t really know about this one… The curlers are pretty strange-looking. At least the set includes a paper on how to use them! This set is $20.

I love this! I love the corner booth, the food, the stools at the counter! It’s so cute! $275 is a lot of money, but I still like it. The colors are so fun, and it makes it pop. :)

I still don’t think $150 is a good price for this. Sure, it folds out, and can fit 2 dolls, but I think it would sell better priced at $115 or lower.

This is $40. I don’t think it comes with much. I probably won’t buy it.

That’s all for now. As you may know, I’m not buying Maryellen, or any of her collection. Samanthalover is really excited and wants to save for her. :)
