Interesting prints and shocking were popular in the 70's. Think Julie's patchwork top. This dress was an Old Navy baby top. She wears her meet belt and shoes.

Julie says this look is Groovy! Madelon has rolled up the sleeves so this outfit can be used by a baby or donated later. Such a wonderful fun find. Thank you Madelon!

Madelon's 1950's Inspired Doll Clothes Find

Madelon shares with us an outfit she has put together using items that she has in her collection already.
"My family has been buying Battat/Our Generation clothes for years. Some of  the modern dresses in their line that are marketed as modern apparel work as 1950's clothes as well."

Our generation has been using shrugs in their outfits for a while now and you can mix and match them. This outfit is called Mint Condition.

Don't you love the Peter Pan Collar?

Love everything about this outfit sadly though the sandals do not do up.
Check out your own Our Generation Section of your local Target and do check our own closets as well! Tag sales and yard sales are also a wonderful place to find older outfits for your dolls.
Thank you Madelon for sharing with us today!
