American Girl recently announced they are archiving four of their Historical Character Dolls, Marie-Grace, Cecile, Ruthie, and Ivy. I decided to order Ivy before she wasn’t available anymore.
She is a best friend doll to Julie. These girl’s are grooving with the 70’s all the way! Julie was my first AG doll and I have enjoyed collecting her outfits. I had always thought I would eventually buy Ivy but with the announcement I decided to order her right away.
Let’s take a look at a few Ivy favorites!
Her almond shaped eyes.
Her shiny black hair and blunt haircut. Wait…this style is back in! 🙂
Ivy’s chandelier earrings.
And of course this groovy denim bag with 70’s all the way patches!
How do you feel about the four doll’s American Girl will be archiving? Is there one you wish you could bring home?

I really want Ivy. She is so cute. But, I will probably only get her if my mom gets her for me. I hope she does, she’s so pretty!
Anna says
The Little Things, Ivy is a lovely doll! I will miss the 4 dolls that are being archived! I like each of them for different reasons. It’s a hard decision to buy a doll because it is going to be gone. I guess dolls come and go, I hope you enjoy and love the dolls that are in your collection!

Ivy is beautiful! My daughter has Julie and was sad to hear that Ivy is retiring.
I love that cute little denim bag. We may have to make one of those for Julie!
Anna says
Lori, I was sad too! I will also miss the other dolls they are archiving. I like each of them for different reasons. I like your idea to make Julie a denim bag! Sounds like a fun craft!
Chris says
Yeah, I will, Marie-Grace and Cecile!! Won’t be getting them sadly. 🙁
Unless a holiday miracle happens…….
Anna says
Chris, My mom has Marie-Grace and she is a wonderful doll. I have always thought Cecile was a stunning doll and would have enjoyed adding her to our collection!

I will miss you Ivy! I am wishing for Julie for Christmas and there have been a lot of bad reviews about her. Anna, what is Julies hair like for you?
Anna says
Julie’s hair is very straight. That being said it keeps a sleek straight look great. Some do’s don’t work as well because her hair is so straight. Every doll has pro’s and con’s to their hair style. Hope that helps!
