A Review: Oui Go Together 18" Doll Outfit from Target

1

In the past, I must admit, I have been a bit of snob about American Girl clothes. I rarely buy anything "off brand", but recently, I have begun to change my attitude. One is in part to American Girl's prices reaching incredible heights, and another is that I find myself more drawn to the off brand stuff. I don't know if it's getting cuter, or I'm getting softer, or what, but the fact remains, I have been buying more and more of it. With that being said, I've decided to do a few reviews on some of the cuter items I've purchased.

The first one in this series is the Target Our Generation Brand Oui Go Together Outfit ($12.99).
Oui Go Together

The outfit comes with a red striped shirt, a pair of black capris, black flats, a yellow beret, and a cute Paris bag that has a loaf of French bread, a cheese wedge, and a bottle of water. You can also reuse the hanger inside the box as an outfit hanger. What really drew me to this outfit was the cute little loaf of French bread. 
Isn't it cute??!!


The outfit is fairly well made, with the only exception being the inside seams aren't exactly finished on the pants. The pants are, however, fully lined.

They are a little snug to pull over the feet, but with just a bit of effort they are able to be put on, and once you get over the feet, they fit perfectly. The pants also have some very cute button details at the hem.

The shirt is nice quality, as is the beret. The bag handles are a little snug going over the hand, and it is definitely not an arm bag, as they are not big enough to slide up the arm. They do fit nicely over the wrist, though. The foodstuffs are made of hollow plastic, but they are so cute! The black flats don't exactly fit well, but they work. I will probably trade them out for some other AG brand flats (maybe some of those Ruthie shoes I bought during the big sale). 
They are a little big...


All in all, I think this outfit is a great bargain for $12.99. You get a lot of fun pieces, the quality is nice, and there is great mix and max potential here.
