Our Generation Dress Review for Journey Girls
I love spring and summer; beautiful weather, vacations, and cute dresses. Our Generation released a dress that is perfect for spring stroll through the flowers. This pink dress is called “Let’s Hear it for the Poise.” It is a cotton pink polka dot (who doesn’t love polka dots?) dress with a tulle underskirt, and a mint green ribbon around the waist. It also comes with a brown elastic headband that has a mint green fabric rose attached to it, a white sweater, and pink fabric shoes.
The dress
is wonderful! It is a fun dress, with
bright colors, and a retro feel to it.
The dress is made very well. It
is a heavier cotton material. The tulle
underskirt helps keep the dressed puffed out. It has Velcro up the back to
secure it. This dress is big on the Journey
Girls, but as you can see, it looks great on Kyla. No hint that it is a little big.
My only
disappointment with the dress is its pretty mint bow. It does not stay tied. The ribbon is sewn to the dress so that it
doesn’t fall off, but it is sewn in a way that the bow is always at a goofy
angle. I’ve tried tying the bow several
different ways and each time…it comes out a little wonky. It seems to fall out every few times of
playing with the dress. So, if your
little girl cannot quite tie a bow yet, be prepared to tie this one for her
often.
The sweater
is very nice. I like the dress without
the sweater, but it is nice to have. If
nothing else it is always great to have it for other outfits. When the sweater is one the dress takes on a
retro look.
I love the
headband. It is the type that goes
around Kyla’s whole head. If you wanted
to you could use it as a ponytail holder.
The fabric rose on it is pretty and not too large. It does a great job of making the ribbon on
Kyla’s dress pop.
The
shoes…are the not so liked fabric shoes.
This time they are a shiny vinyl type of fabric. I think the issue I have with the fabric
shoes, is not that they are fabric, but that they all look the same. The all look like slippers to me. They go well with the outfit and fit
will. So I shouldn’t really complain.

Value 9 – Like most of the Our Generation deluxe
outfits, this one comes with good accessories.
The quality of everything in the package is very good. And, if you watch for it, you can pick this
outfit up for less than $13. That is
awesome!
Fitment 8 – Overall everything fits well. The dress is big on Kyla, but it isn’t
frumpy. It’s big in the waist, which
doesn’t really matter on this dress.
Versatility 9 – I love the variety of things you
can do with this dress and it’s accessories.
The sweater can go with a myriad of other outfits. The shoes, even though not my favorite, can
go with other outfits. The headband
works well with some things. It’s the
least versatile accessory. The dress
itself can look very springy; a good dress to run through the fields in. Or it can look like an Easter dress. Or with the sweater it looks like a throw
back outfit.
Cuteness 9 – This is a very cute dress. It showcases the little girl in the Journey
Girls. Some of the outfits make the
girls look more mature, but this one reminds me of how cute they are.
Overall 9 – I think this is one of my favorites (at least until they
come out with new dresses). I love how
versatile it is. I love the colors. It looks great on every doll. It has very few flaws. I wish that they had sewn the bow so that it
wouldn’t fall out, but that is really not a big deal.
