2014 ~ American Girl Doll wishlist

Hello ! 
The other day I  spent a lot of  time looking at the american girl prices and items  . I have been saving for a while so I made a little whishlist for 2014 !
Here you go:

First  there are some doll accessories :

Flute set -$34

First I really like the doll flute set( it is super realistic !) and I want one of my dolls to play the flute so i think this set is perfect .

Chocolate glasses -$10
 
I wear glasses so I really wanted one of my dolls to have glasses too . I have been eyeing tese for a very long time so I really want to get them .

Josefina's riding boots-$14
 
I love these boots ! I think they are just to cute with their 1824 style .

Josefina's shoes and socks -$16


 
If you haven't told already I absolutely love Josefina's style . I really like these shoes as well .I think they are super unique !

Doll clothes :

Isabelle's coral sweater for Dolls-$14
 
I love this sweater! The color is very pretty and will look awesome with many thinks . I completely adore the finger whole !

Isabelle's rosette leotrard -$10
 
One of my dolls  is a dancer so I knew I had to get this when i saw it for the first time .I think the color is nice not to flashy and the rosette adds just enough bling. 

Josefina's feast outfit-$32
 
So you might tell by now that I really like Josefina's collection .I just really love the style and colors of her outfits . This one is my favorite I really love the skirt and the fact it comes with so many parts .

Books:

Doll at work-$24.99
 
I relly like the Ag kits and this one looks very fun but I am not so convinsed about the price !

Doll Dining-$21.99


If I do not get the Doll at work I would really want this one ! But I have many other items so I am not so sure about buying a kit .

Doll !!!:
Yes I am planing on getting a new doll which will probably be my last doll . And the doll is...

Josefina Montoya !
 
I love Josefina she is my favorite Historical doll !I really love her facemold and hair eye and skin combination .Since I have lived in a Hispanic country for many years I rfeel identifed by her .  I have decided that I would buy her  since I am completely in love with her story and look .
 

 So here was my whislist .I am not 100 percent sure I will buy everything but I would really like to .
So what is on your wishlist ?
:)

AG Rumors + Samanthas return and posible new historical doll

Hi!
Have you heard the rumors that Cécile and Marie-Grace's might be  retiring? Alot of people have been saying they do not appear in the Spring AG catalog ,which might involve them being retired soon ! Nothing is confirmed yet but ...these clues might be the evidence they will be retiring !

I hope that doesn't happen because the idea of having two main Historical dolls is just really cool ! American Girl already retired Molly last year so if they retire these dolls that would be 3 dolls in a short period of time ! If you want to read more check out Living a Dolls life she has plenty of info on this topic.
While these dolls might retire an American girl doll Classic doll will come back this Fall!
It is Samantha Parkington!





  This is really exiting for all of the Samantha lovers or the ones who missed out on her !Though there is no info if her outfits and accessories will come back with her re-release!But there is no information on Nellie's return .









An Ebay  seller posted some pictures of the new Samantha but there was no defined "meet" outfit!
These pictures are NOT mine they are from the Ebay seller! 

 
This picture shows how Samantha will have feathered eyebrows rather than the lined eyebrows she had originaly .

So now untill further notice  Samantha will be back in Fall 2014.







There are also other rumors about a new historical ! Many pictures have been found on the web of this doll :
 She  looks like a girl from 1960! She looks really cute and her outfit looks very unique! It is not completely 100% sure that she is an actual doll coming out and if she is coming out  at the same time as Samantha in Fall .

Here are some rumors and facts about the Historical line from American Girl .
Facts from:
1.americangirlandotherawesomeness 
2.livingadollslife
I do NOT  own these pictures I found them on another blog.
