Our new Gymbo (WF & DW) plus one J&J

[parkersmama]

Well, I finally got around to having Amy Grace do some modeling. I'm not sure about some of my selections so I'm hoping you guys can help! :)

"the" outfit from WF - I really like this outfit but it sort of bums me that you can't see the adorable flowers on the pants. This is a 2T top and an 18-24mos bottoms...do you think I could go down to an 18-24 top?

Orange flower tee from WF with Kid Girl jean capris - I *love* these pants! They are so fabulous! I really like the top, too, but it seems a bit tight. The top is an 18-24 but it's supposed to be 3/4 sleeves. The sleeves will be really long if I go up to a 3T. Maybe I should order the s/s one online?

DW dragonfly tee and striped pants - I'm not too sure about this one. For one thing, it makes our 3rd DW outfit and it's my least favorite. They are both 18-24mos. I would want her to wear it in the spring (which begins in March for us) so I don't want it to be too big but the pants seem a bit short. strange. Maybe I should keep the dragonfly tee and put it with the jean capris?

And now...my bathing beauty! :D
This is the green ruffle bikini from WF - I don't like it on her. The color just does nothing for her and it's already in my returns bag. :(

This is the SC white hearts bikini - I like it better. I think it's pretty cute and she seemed to like it. What do you all think?

This one if from J&J - I really like it a lot. I wanted to have a mix of bikinis/tankinis and one-pieces. I think the color of this one is great on AG!

I welcome your input as always, and even more since I'm a lot more up in the air than I usually am about my purchases. Thanks!

Denise,

AG is getting to be such a big girl. I love the first outfit, but this is my first time seeing it so I had no idea the pants had flowers on them. I also love the J&J swimsuit I am more of I 1 piece or tankini kinda girl. The orange shirt is ok, but I think you could find something cuter like the blue shirt. I agree about the blue pants.


BTW, Andrew keeps saying more Amy Grace, more Amy Grace

Denise -
She is so precious. I love the one piece swimsuit. Just adorable.

Don't size down in the first one, it looks fine now and will fit longer.

I think that orange flower tee is running small, that's the one I had trouble with too.

I like the dragonfly tee with those pants, but they do look short. I plan to put it with the yellow basic pants from sunflowers.

I agree on the bathing suits. That heart bikini is too freakin cute on her! I may have to go buy that one myself even though I swore off Gymbo bathing suits. The blue one looks great on her.

You MUST keep the blue bathing suit, it is so freakin cute on AG! The other 2 are cute, but not must-haves, IMO.

The first outfit is OK, but the cut of the shirt and maybe the way she is standing, reminds me of a maternity shirt, LOL. But probably if you size down, it won't fit her very long.

I love the dragonfly T, but don't keep the leggings. She can wear the T with the jeans, or probably a few other things she has.

The outfit with the orange shirt...I love that orange shirt! You could get it in s/s, it is a summerish material, and you will have warm weather soon.

Just my opinions...I have a boy, so I like to comment on all of the cute girl outfits! :) And you have the cutest little model!!

[Tracey]

AG would look cute in a paper sack, but if it were me, I'd keep the capris and the blue bathing suit.

[khakismom]

Look at what a big girl she is! ADORABLE, as always!

I love the orange shirt in the second picture. Great color and I love the little flower "brooch". Love those capris!

The J&J blue ruffle-butt swimsuit is a keeper. It looks so cute on her! I also like the heart 2-piece too.

I wouldn't size down on the first top. It will fit her perfectly this summer I think. And the blue one doesn't seem to do anything for her coloring, I don't know why. And I normally LOVE the color.

My faves are the bathing suits on her. What a cutie!! :)

[AvasMama]

I love the J&J suit the best -- I wanted that for Ava but our store and online are both sold out of her size :(

I am jealous of the jean capris -- they are so cute and versatile! I also really like the WFF cargo pants on AG. Would they look good with the orange flower tee? It seems shorter and would show off the flowers on the pants, which I think is key.

Not loving the DW outfit on AG as much as the other outfits. Since you have a few other outfits from that line, maybe skip that one or just keep the tee as you suggested.

Denise,

I was wondering if you bought anything from WF. I've been waiting to see AG because she always looks so adorable.

I love the first outfit. It looks great on her. The top looks a bit big, but not huge. I'd stay with that size, you may get more wear out of it.

I like the orange top. It does look a little snug so if you wanted to size up, I'd go with the s/s if your worried about sleeve length.

The light blue DW outfit is ok, not as cute as her other DW outfits though. I do like the dragonfly tee. It would go well with the jean capris and jean shorts in the summer.

As for the bathing suits, I love the J&J swimsuit on her. I bought it for Kyleigh and it is so cute. I'm not a big fan of two piece bathing suits, but I like the SC one better than the green one. The bottom is so cute with the little heart on the bum.

She is so cute!! The bikinis are adorable on her but I agree, the SC and the blue one are the best for her.
I wouldn't size down the first top.
What a cutie!!

[lmladuke]

Denise:

My gosh, she gets cuter in every picture! Love the first outfit - keep the top the size it is. I think the long sleeve top seems a bit snug so I would go for the short-sleeve in a larger size. If you wanted something long you can always get the cardigan to put over it (ok, sorry - I'm encouraging you to buy more :)

I don't love the blue DW outfit and since you already have 2 others from this line - I say return it. Besides, new stuff will still be coming out, and if you return it that leaves you another outfit to buy later.

Love the blue J&J suit the best of the three - I think it is the most flattering on her - and think - with a one piece you have less areas to worry about putting sunblock on. I did not see that suit in the new J&J line online - does the store have more?

AG is such a beautiful little girl! My favorite swimsuit is the J&J, but the SC hearts is also adorable. Both the jean capris and the WF cargos look great. Maybe try try to find the orange top in s/s, and she could wear it with both? I'm undecided on the DW top, but do like it better than the leggings. So hard to choose when your model looks so great in everything . . .

She is growing up right before my very eyes. Do I say that every time you post? I love her piggies.

Now, don't shoot me, but I actually like the DW outfit on her (better than the other two outfits). I love that color on AG. Don't listen to me though because I'm turning out to not be a WFF fan at all, and yet most people seem to like it. I must be a weirdo. LOL!! She does look cute in everything though. I've been waiting and waiting for you to post these pics. :) Such a cutie pie!!

[dules]

I can't believe how BIG AG is getting!!!!

First outfit...love it! If the top is not going to shrink I might try the next size down and see if that shows the flowers without being short. If you change the 3/4 tee for the short sleeve you could pair that with these pants.

Second outfit...The shirt does look a little odd. I'd switch for a shortsleeve one in a bigger size. The capris are darling!

Third...I'm just not loving those pants. I saw them in the store and wanted to love them but didn't. I do like the top though.

Green bikini...I'm with you.

White bikini...I agree that AG seems to really like it so it should stay. I'm not a huge fan of bikinis (very, very sun shy family!) so can't really comment on cut/fit/look.

J&J suit...this is a total winner in my book. Looks comfy and the color is fabulous on AG.

Thanks for sharing!

Best,
Mary

Amy Grace is DARLING!!! She looks cute in everything but my fave is definitely the J&J swimsuit.

Thanks, everyone! Your opinions really helped!

I think at this point, I'm goint to return the orange flower tee and try to get a s/s one in the next size up, return the entire outfit from DW (and try to get them to let me use that money to buy the green cardie so I don't lose my GB discount!!), and return the green bikini.

I will definitely keep the WF outfit, the jean capris, and the blue J&J suit. I'm still trying to decide about the hearts bikini. I want to run the pics by dh and get his opinion. I think I like it enough to keep it, though. And maybe for a 3rd suit we'll get one of the new ones from J&J since they are so adorable! Maybe I should have them both sent to me and then I can try them on to see which I like better. :D

Sending back the DW outfit is actually good because I have 3 outfits for spring that I'd like to get from Naartjie and maybe 2 from Hanna. That should round out our spring wardrobe pretty nicely and I can move on to summer! LOL!

Sorry we are late! The bikinis look so cute on AG!!! The heart one is adorable. I love the WF stuff on her too. We got the flower shirt in 2T and it fits with a little room. Normally we get 18-24 shirts, but they didn't have it and good thing. I also want the s/s orange shirt with the flower! I am waiting for a sale to order it online.

Amy Grace looks wonderful as always.

I think you are doing the right thing with your return choices. And as for the first WFF top, I also bought Sarah a 2T. I held it up to the 18-24 month one, and there was little difference - maybe 1/2 inch in width and length. I know what you mean about not being able to see the flowers. I may buy another top so that occasionally the flowers can be seen.

The first WFF fields outfit is my absolute favorite. Amy Grace looks precious in everything though! I also adore the J&J swimsuit as well. Too cute!

Denise,

I'm obviously very late in responding to this, but I wanted to tell you that AG is precious, as always. She's such an adorable model :).

My favorite is definitely the blue J&J swimsuit. It is sooooo cute!

[papal]

Sorry we are late too!
My favourite piece is the J&J one-piece... AG looks So cute in it... maybe I am a whacko, but the cut of the bikini in the hearts (the top piece) is too big-girlish for me (especially the back)... i don't know, i am just not loving it. I thought I would give an honest opinion, hope you don't mind Denise! And the green one, i don't love that too much either... the two-piece styling and the frills on the top...
