My Beautiful Dylan

The first of four historical archivals/retirements has happened. Ruthie Smithens is now sold out from AG on-line and I'm sad to see such a beautiful doll leave but a week or so ago I took my Dylan out for a photo shoot to help those who were on the fence about her push them over. LOL These were originally posted on Instagram over a number of days but you get to enjoy them all at one time. (^_^)





I'm soo happy my DH and DD bought her for me for as a Christmas/Anniversary present this past year. There are no more gray eyed dolls in the AG line up and I'm fortunate enough to own one of them.

Farewell Ruthie Smithens, you will be missed!

    She is so beautiful! I have a Ruthie doll as well. It's such a pity they are sold out now :(

      Thanks! I got her off eBay second hand, because I couldn't afford a new one. She is such a stunning doll and I'm having so much fun with her!

      That makes her more special. ^^ Almost all of my girls are secondhand with the exceptions of #49, #58 and Ruthie as they were gifts from my hubby. (^_^)

    The grey eyes are so beautiful, I just don't get why they stopped using them :( There's a PM pair in my Piper, they look amazing in pictures! Your Dylan is stunning <3

    You really captured the beauty of those grey eyes here!

    Such a shame that AG doesn't have any other dolls with those - but maybe they will again, I hope!

      Thank you for your compliments!

      I agree it is sad there aren't any gray eyed dolls anymore.

      After the retirement of Molly they no longer use grey eyes particularly for the reason of silver eye. I doubt they would make another doll with grey eyes. Silver eye happens a lot to grey-eyed dolls and thank God it hasn't happened to my Molly yet, I'm keeping her in great condition and hope anyone who has a grey-eyed doll does too.

    Dylan is so beautiful! I just got Ivy for my birthday yesterday. I am so happy to have her before she's gone, she's such a darling little doll and I wish more people had her!

      Silver Eye is a defect in the eye of American Girl dolls where the inner eye decal begins to detach from the eye. The eye begins to take on a silver look from the detachment. This generally happens with specific eye types, primarily the "pinwheel" decaled eyes.

      According to http://americangirl.wikia.com/wiki/Silver_Eye ^^
