American Girl Fashion Collections (Running List)

This will be a running list of American Girl Fashion Collections that I will add to as I get new ones. The newest ones will always be on the top. Unlike with outfits from other brands, I chose to keep the American Girl brand together on the same page(s), since I have a source I can link to for detailed item descriptions.

Please note: Any footwear or accessories that were sold with the collection will be listed with it.

Some of the collections are not complete. Sometimes there are items in the collections I do not want or need, so I don't buy them.

My Life As Hello Kitty Part Play Set




This awesome outfit and play set is sold exclusively at Walmart for the My Life As doll line. We got it as a bundle on Walmart's website.

The outfit consists of a pink leotard that features a Hello Kitty character as well as three dark yellow rhinestones.

The skirt, or tutu, is made in two layers. The bottom layer is worked out of glittery pink tulle with a black trim, and the top layer is made out of glittery purple tulle, also with a black trim. The waistband is pink elastic.

The jacket is made out of a shiny material and has little Hello Kitty faces printed on both sides in the front. The sleeves are black, and the words Hello Kitty are printed in white on the left sleeve. The trim of the jacket is white and dark pink, and it has a working zipper.

Also included with the outfit is a blue hanger.



Here I'm modeling the leotard, which could also be used for ballet, gymnastics, or even as a swimsuit.



Here is the leotard combined with the skirt/tutu.



And here we have the complete outfit. It didn't come with shoes, so I decided not to wear any in the pictures either.

Let's see more....

Our Generation Ride Along Scooter



The Ride Along Scooter is manufactured by the Battat Company for the Our Generation doll line, and sold at Target.

This awesome scooter comes in a light pink and cream color, with a brown seat, black wheels, and chrome-colored hardware. It is made entirely out of sturdy plastic.

The scooter features realistic horn and engine sounds, and has working headlights and brake lights. All you have to do is insert 3 AA batteries into the battery compartment. Another amazing feature is that the scooter is compatible with bluetooth and has speakers, so you can listen to your favorite music while cruising around.





You can use the scooter in two different ways: You either ride by yourself or you can bring your dog or cat along; or two of them if they are puppies or kittens. You could also give your mini dolls a ride, or carry supplies; and all this thanks to a sidecar, which can be detached if you feel like riding solo.

Another great feature is the seat, which opens into a compartment, so you can store something in there as well for your ride; for example a snack, or a jacket, or a bag, or anything else you can think of that might fit into the compartment.





Of course we can't forget that safety comes first, and with this in mind the scooter is equipped with a safety belt for the rider, as well as a helmet with a real-working visor. A pair of goggles is available for your furry companion in the sidecar.

The scooter measures 13 inches in height, 17.5 inches in width, and 13 inches in depth.

It has won the following awards:
~ 2018 Family Choice Award
~ 2018 Parent's Choice Recommended Toy
~ 2018 San Diego Family Kid-tested Holiday Toy honor

This is a fun addition to any doll and accessories collection, and a great toy to add to doll playtime, but it is also awesome for display and photo shoots.

18-Inch Doll Table And Stools



This adorable doll table with two matching stools was sold by Olivia's Little World on Amazon, as well as on other retail websites.

The set consists of a white round table that has a pink plank-style top, as well as two matching white stools with pink plank-style seats. It does not come assembled, but with all the hardware (minus screwdriver) and instructions required to put it together. The assembly is very easy.

The furniture is made entirely out of sturdy wood, and is perfect for 18-inch dolls.

Per the retailer, the set measures 11.8 inches in length, 11.8 inches in width, and 10.1 inches in height.

It was originally labeled for pretend outdoor play, but it's also a beautiful addition to a doll kitchen. The table is a lot bigger than most other 18-inch doll tables, which allows for more items to be placed or displayed.

I believe the set is no longer available for sale through the regular retail market, but it might be able to be found on resale websites or on social media in BST (buy-sell-trade) groups.

My Life As Shopping Cart



This awesome, realistic looking shopping cart is sold exclusively at Walmart for the My Life As doll line.

The sturdy cart is the perfect size for 18-inch dolls. It is made out of silver painted metal, as well as blue and black plastic, and it has the Walmart logo in the front.

It is tall enough for the dolls to reach the handles and push the cart around because the wheels turn easily and smoothly. The highest end of the basket, located right below the handle bar, can be pushed to the inside just as it is possible with a real shopping cart, in order to store bigger items. However, unlike real shopping carts, this toy version does not have a seat for small children behind the handle bar.

The cart measures 10 inches in length from the front to the end of the handle bar, 5.5 inches in width on the widest end below the handle bar, 10 inches in height from the wheels to the top of the handle bar, and 5.7 inches in depth on the widest end below the handle bar.

I believe this is a wonderful addition to any 18-inch doll collections, especially for those with various doll stores, as well as to doll kitchens, and, of course, for pretend play and photo shoots.

❤ Maria 

My Life As Shopping Basket



This adorable shopping basket is sold exclusively at Walmart for the My Life As doll line.

The sturdy blue plastic basket is the perfect size for 18-inch dolls. Its main color is blue with black carry handles, and it has the Walmart logo on each side.

The basket measures 4.5 inches long, 3.2 inches wide, 2.7 inches deep, 2.7 inches high with the handles laying flat, and 4.25 inches high with the handles extended.





The basket is packed full with 15 various pretend plastic and cardboard food items, including:

~ 1 bottle of water

~ 1 can of tomato soup

~ 1 can of fruit cocktail

~ 1 bag of four bagels

~ 1 package of bacon

~ 1 carton of apple juice

~ 1 half-gallon of chocolate milk

I believe this is a wonderful addition to any 18-inch doll collections, especially for those with various doll stores, as well as to doll kitchens, and, of course, for pretend play and photo shoots.

American Girl Mini Lea



Mini Lea is manufactured by Mattel for American Girl.

She is a beautiful little doll, stands 6 inches tall, and her body is entirely made out of sturdy vinyl. For a small doll her size, she is surprisingly heavy.

She is able to move her head, arms and legs, and is therefore very easy to pose.

Her eyes, skin, and hair color are the same as that of big Lea. She also has the two front teeth showing.

She is dressed identical to her 18-inch counterpart, with the only differences being that she does not have the compass necklace or the messenger bag. However, her dress and shoes are the exact replicas of the bigger doll. All of her clothes are removable.

She comes in a miniature doll box, together with an abridged version of Lea's book "Lea Dives In".

I believe she is a wonderful addition to the collections of American Girl doll fans. Many people use the mini dolls as dolls for their 18-inch dolls, while others collect the mini dolls separately, and give them entire dollhouses and collections of their own.
