Journey Girl Callie Models a Polka Dotted Coat and Skirt
Callie is super cute in her jacket and skirt from Target’s
Our Generation line. The outfit “Oh My
Posh”comes with a black skirt with dark pink and white polka dots, a matching
jacket with big pink buttons, pink tights, black shiny shoes, and a pretty dark
pink beret with a black bow on the front.

The jacket and skirt are made of a thicker wool like fabric that works really well for this outfit.
The inside of the jacket and skirt have a layer of satin fabric.
The fabric makes it a lot easier to get Callie’s arms in and out of the jacket.

The skirt is really big on Callie, more than some of the
other Our Generation outfits. As you can
see Callie can still wear the skirt. The
Velcro sticks to the skirt and can hold it up.
Since the jacket is longer it helps hide the fact that the skirt is
loose.

When Callie wears the tights it also helps hold her skirt in place.
I like the tights.
They are a darker pink color, not quite maroon…but somewhere in between.
The tights fit wonderfully on Callie.
The jacket is wonderful!
I love that the jacket is a little longer.
I like the big buttons on the front.
One of the great things about Our Generation
outfits is that they do not all have Velcro; instead they use snaps, button or
zippers.
I really like this about the
Our Generation line.
It makes the
clothes feel more authentic.

The beret fits Callie’s head well. It can be pulled down so that it stays on her
head as she moves. I think the bow is a
little big. I’d like it to be a bit
smaller. Not bad though.
The shoes are the same old cloth shoes that every Our
Generation outfit comes with.
I am glad
that they aren’t the plastic ones (I hate those things).
These shoes are a little better, just because
they are made with a stiffer shinny material.
I still can’t figure out why if the outfit comes with plastic shoes,
they are huge on the Journey Girls, whereas the cloth shoes are tight!

Value 8 – The outfit has some good potential. The jacket can be used on it's own. The tights are great! The beret can be used with other outfits. As well as the dreaded shoes. The skirt could..but the out fit would have to cover the top of the skirt so the overlap is not seen. There is a lot to the outfit for the price.
Fitment 7 – The skirt is one of the loosest Our Generation items I have. It is even loose on my American Girl doll. The rest of the outfit fits well. The jacket even has room to put a t-shirt on underneath. The only other thing that does not fit so well…the shoes!
Versatility 8 – As I mention above…almost everything can be used with other outfits. That is awesome! The colors are very easy to match with other outfits. It's an overall great outfit for versatility. It is a coat though…so no summer outfits.
Cuteness 9 – Oh I like this coat! It's such wonderful colors. I love polka dots!!! Plus how can you not like the big buttons. The outfit looks casual and sophisticated at the same time.
Overall 8 – This is a very well made outfit that has many parts that are very versatile. The colors are great. The design is cute. Just a great outfit. I wish it had better shoes. And I wish that the shirt wasn't so big. Since all of the other Our Generation outfits I have bought have been closer to the Journey Girls size, I do wonder if this one is an oddity. If you are looking for a nice coat for your Journey Girl this winter…this is a good choice.
