Alright Ladies, I have seen a few of you say the beautiful blooms is your favorite bitty outfit so I need your opinion. I really want a dress & matching doll outfit for my DD so I am considering buying my DD the BB dress and bitty's outfit. Should I do it? (even without the tights as a PP mentioned). I would be getting the dress for the bitty brunette twin if that makes a difference. Thanks for your help [img]smile.gif[/img]

I highly recommend it, it is a beautiful dress for the doll and little girls. My dd wore it last year to the AG fashion show and got lots of nice comments, she also wore it for Easter and then again for this year's Easter as well since it still fit.
I wouldn't worry about the tights, any little white tights would do nicely. The hat is adorable too and may be just a little tight on the twin because of her hair. On the girl it is precious.
The pull toy is a nice touch as well. I love the little toys that come with Bitty's outfits.
My dd was always disappointed that she couldn't get the turquoise shoes to match!

We have both the doll and girls outfits also. This dress is absolutely stunning on dd. We also have "Muna" (where that name came from I have no idea) who is our brunette bitty twin, and it fits her fine. The hat fits her more snugly (SP), than Bitty, but that is good because it seems like poor Bitty's hat is always falling off.
I am even considering buying it in a larger size for next year, but I'm not sure she will want to wear it again next year. She is getting so weird in what she will and won't wear.
We have both outfits as well and highly recommend them. [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
I have to agree and say, "Buy it quick before it is sold out!" I love the Beautiful Blooms set. I don't think you will be disappointed.
I bought the lavendar Easter Bitty dress (the one with the white crocheted shoes) for my daughter and her Bitty. When my daughter outgrew her dress, I sold it on e-Bay for more than I bought it for on sale. I save a lot of the matching clothes for my DD, but there is only so much you can save and we needed some $$ to buy more AG clothes.
Thanks ladies, you are so great with all your reviews. Last question on this topic is what size 3 or 4 and s/m or m/l in hat. DD is 2 1/2 almost, and on the petite size (she wears a 2T gymboree and it is a little big). I wanted it for Easter next year - would a 4 be way big. Thanks,
Becky
Becky, Kaitlin is in 18 months now and the three swims on her. So I think you should get a 3. If you want it for next year.
I just got my Beatiful Blooms set for my Bitty today. It's just adorable! I highly recommend it. It was quite wrinkled, but I put my iron on it's lowest setting, and it pressed up just fine.
Thanks for all your help, I ordered both dresses, now I just have to wait paitently for my urban ups delivery. [img]wink.gif[/img] I did use the free shipping code so I won't complain. Does AG every ship ground UPS? All my orders have been urban and seem to take an extra week.

My Beautiful Blooms dress was delivered UPS. It only took two days. Sometimes I get outfits delivered that way, and other times they come in the mail. I find I cannot predict which way a particular item will be shipped.
Oh I'm so envious of you folks who have real little girls to dress up in that Beautiful Blooms set! sigh.
Ok, I've bought stuff for birthdays. I've bought and put away stuff for holidays. Dare I buy that dress for a future granddaughter? [img]eek.gif[/img] [img]eek.gif[/img] [img]eek.gif[/img]
hmm, by the time I have a granddaughter (if ever), the dress may be so outdated as to look absurd.

Julia,
You must have boys, DD is much more fun to dress than DS, but then again DD got a dress up trunk for christmas and my 4 yr. old DS shows alot of interest in the Cinderella dress (and I have a pic. to prove it) [img]wink.gif[/img]

I recommend getting the size 3. My daughter wears 2T and I bought her the size 3 and it is really big on her. Definately some growing room. I think a size 4 might be too big, unless you daughter has a massive growth spurt. I don't know about the hat size, but I saw that the large size sold out already.
You won't regret getting the Beautiful Blooms dress (especially with the free shipping). It is very pretty. I think it is a pretty good bargain on sale. I also got the matching doll outfit and it is great too.
I think that AG must be getting ready to come out with new easter and christmas dresses, since both of them are on sale now. I can't wait to see what they look like.
By the way, if you're thinking of getting the red dress, it runs SMALL. The size 3 fits my daughter just right now, and there is no way that it will fit her by the time the holidays come around. I sent it back and ordered a size 4.
Let us know how you like the Beautiful Blooms outfits when you get them. I am interested to know if you like them as much as we all do.
Thanks, I will review the outfits when they come. Since they are so popular here I am sure I will be glad I got them. Thanks for everyones input. Looks like I have more time to wait, my order is still processing [img]frown.gif[/img]
