Rating Kit’s entire collection

We are finally back with another ratings post! I’m sorry i can’t do these more often, they take a lot of time and energy, so I’m usually to busy to sit down and make them, now nearly a whole year has passed since i started this series!

 But thats alright, because we only have 5 more to go after this one, and hopefully i can do them more often after this. I thought about removing unessasary commentary, but alot of you said you liked it, so i kept it in.

anyway i guess lets get into it! since i go in order of the year it takes place, its kit’s turn!

Doll and meet outfits

1. original meet outfit

doll: 10/10 I love her short bob! it really helps reflect her time periods fashion trends so well!

outfit: 8/10 I don’t particually care for this outfit, but i do love how true it is to the time period and the detail that the skirt is supposed to be made of a flour sack.

2. beforever meet outfit

4/10 what the hell is this. I mean it is a subjectively cute dress, but it doesnt fit kit’s story at all! It is way to modern, but even if it is historically accurate, that type of printed fabric and decoration would be way to expensive for the kitterages to buy for an everyday dress for her.

3. original meet accesories

10/10 omg cute! i’ve said it before, and will say it again. I love historical coins!

4. beforever meet accesories

5/10 its so... empty. now there is nothing to put in her purse :(

School collection

1. school dress

2. book bag and supplies

10/10 i love the dog binder

3. swivel chair and desk

10/10 I always love seeing how the girl’s desks have evolved and changed depending on their setting. It’s become a niche interest of mine.

3. Waffle iron

9/10 I like the little recipe cards, and the holly branches too but idk if those were actually included. My only gripe with this is that kit’s iron should have been square shaped, the round ones were a bit more expensive in the 30s.

4. typewriter set

10/10 I always have had an interest in typewriters. Like i said before, i havn;t read her books yet, who is the photo of?

[in-the-dollpalace]

What are your favorite collections you have rated so far?

I really liked samanthas alot (not her beforever one tho)

[agkatestudios]

I have always been so confused by her golfing outfit

She never golfs in her book and it’s an awfully boujie activity for her to do during the literal Great Depression.

I have many feeling about this outfit lol
