My daughter absolutely LOVES playing with dolls. Her favorite part: changing outfits ad nauseum and trying to put together creative, new outfits together for them. You'd think I have a full-fledged fashion designer living under my roof. Her doll of choice is the 18-inch doll (think of the American Girl doll).After a few birthdays and Christmases under my belt I soon learned that I had to find another alternative before I completely blew my gift-giving budget time and time again. I confided in a friend and found she ran into the same problem as her daughter became a doll clothes connoisseur. That's when I discovered the world of wholesale doll clothes.The average American Girl Doll outfit costs anywhere from $22-$50 or so depending on how in depth the design is and what accessories they include. Wholesale clothes come in around under $10 to start. The savings adds up over time as you can see.I was concerned that my daughter wouldn't like the outfits, or they wouldn't be as high quality as the American Doll line, but I found that several wholesale doll clothes retailers are actually individuals working from their homes looking to make extra money. For that reason, their outfits are different than the cookie cutter designs you get at full retail price and they're actually fully handmade instead of machine assembled.Be careful to examine your goods once you receive them, however, because not all retailers are expert seamstresses. Overall my daughter loves the designs I bring home and so does my wallet! True Religion Men Bobby Super T Short Fuse
One of the most troublesome aspects of women's clothes shopping that most females encounter is not that there is not enough variety, but that nothing seems to look good on them. The clothes might be too tight in one area and too loose in another or the dress may fit perfectly but it may make you look, for want of a better phrase, frumpy. Although you may not want to stand out from the crowd and be a modern fashionista, you do not want to blend in either and finding the right clothes to help you do this can be particularly frustrating. Fortunately, there is an answer and it is extremely easy to understand. The most important piece of information that a female can possess when shopping for womens clothes is knowing what type of body shape they are. Although the television celebrities Trinny and Susannah explained in October 2007 to the Daily Mail newspaper that they believed there were 12 individual body shapes, it is widely accepted that there are simply four primary shapes and understanding which one you are can make shopping for womens clothes a whole lot easier. 1. Banana. According to a study of 6,000 women by the North Carolina State University in 2005, this is by far the most common body shape, with 46 percent of those studied having a banana body shape. A woman who has a banana body shape will not have any major accentuations, with the majority of their weight being on their stomach, bum and chest. 2. Pear. Big on the bottom and small on top, this is another common body size, with a fifth of those women studied by North Carolina State University having a pear body shape. Wide hips and large legs feature in a pear body shape, which can cause some problems when looking for trousers. The upper body, however, most women would die for, as they feature a comfortably sized bust and toned arms. 3. Apple. The main features of a woman with an apple body shape are the opposite of a pear body shape as they are generally big on top and slim on bottom. The majority of the weight a woman with an apple body shape gains is noticeable on their face, chest and stomach, whilst their legs tend to stay relatively slim. 4. Hourglass. The fourth body shape (which is actually the least popular, according to the North Carolina State University, contrary to popular belief) is the one that many women aspire to have and features a big bust, slim waist, large hips and surrounding area and slim legs (although the thighs can be large, on occasion). This information may seem useless when first looking at it, as although you may believe that, for example, you are an apple shape, you are unsure about what clothes suit you. The solution is simple and you should look for women's clothes that detract from what would be considered your weaker points (your stomach, in the case of an apple shape) and that accentuate your positive points (your bust and ankles, for an apple body shape).
