Felicity's Riding Outfit has always been one of my favorite items partially because I think she looks gorgeous in it but mostly because I love when she receives it in her story.
I finally got Felicity as an adult just before AG archived her and by that time most of her clothes were sold out, so sadly I didn't have a chance to get her riding outfit. It has been on the top of my wish list since then.
Well my fabulous cousins and aunt in Florida found it in mint condition and in the box all sealed in the bags like it'd never been touched and came straight out of AGP!!!! It was an unbelievable birthday gift which I was so ecstatic about that I started bawling my eyes out (and I don't cry often!) when I opened it!! I couldn't believe they found it for me and in such good condition! I put Felicity in it right away and she's been in it since!
I love the way the emerald green brightens her eyes and contrasts against her red hair. I think it is the most stunning outfit AG has ever designed for a doll! And if you've never read her stories you must -- they are my all time favs. Then you will understand why the outfit is so special.
As if that's not enough!... They also found original Pleasant Company Felicity paper dolls that have never been cut!! It's too much! I can't tell you how much this special gift means to me!
I can't decide if I should cut and play with the paper dolls or leave them as a collectors item. They are so beautiful! I will eventually post photos of the paper dolls out of the folder so you can see how cool they are.
Thank you Aunt Karen, K.K., and Kristin! You are the best!! I love you so much and miss you everyday!! Oh gosh I'm crying again.
My mom thinks you should scan then paper dolls, (whatever that means),on heavy paper so you can play with them.
