If your little one has been into LOL dolls for awhile, you’re aware of one of the biggest problems: How to Get More LOL Doll Outfits?
You want her to stay interested in playing with them, but she’s been styling her LOL dolls the same way over and over. If she gets bored with the world of LOL Surprise, you’re afraid that she will stop playing with them altogether and all that money you’ve spent on LOL dolls will go to waste.
We’re parents too, so we’ve thought of 4 ways to get more LOL doll outfits for your little one. More outfits will, hopefully, mean more time spent playing quietly with her LOLs. Here’s what we recommend…
1. Buy Outfit of the Day #OOTD for more LOL doll outfits.
Although also styled as an advent calendar, OOTD is really a treasure trove of more accessories for your little one’s LOL doll collection. This adorable box includes 1 dolls, but more importantly, there are a lot of accessories that can be mixed and matched:
- A bottle
- 4 one piece outfits (think dress or overalls)
- 4 pairs of shoes
- 2 bags (think purse or backpack)
- 1 necklace
- A hat
- 1 pair of sunglasses
- 4 tops (shirts or jackets)
- 4 bottoms (shorts or skirts)
- 1 swimsuit top
- 1 swimsuit
Thankfully, the price of OOTD is pretty competitive if you need more accessories but don’t want to buy more dolls.
Check the price of Outfit of the Day #OOTD on Amazon or read our complete guide to #OOTD for more.
2. Buy Fashion Crush for more LOL doll outfits.
Series 4 Eye Spy Under Wraps Fashion Crush has to be one of the most underrated LOL Surprise products out there.
Remember the charm fizzes that came out before Series 4? These little balls included charms–although no LOL charm bracelet was being sold–and had about 5 seconds of fun.
For Series 4, Fashion Crush was released, instead of charm fizz, as the little ball of fun.
Fashion Crush is Much Better than Charm Fizz
What most people didn’t realize?
LOL Fashion Crush was actually useful!
Guess what’s inside?
More LOL doll outfits!
This is exactly what we needed, when we needed it, but we didn’t know. Inside each Fashion Crush is another FULL LOL doll outfit complete with shoes.
In addition to not seeming useful because of the comparison to charm fizz, we think many people didn’t realize that there was a full outfit inside because of the packaging.
The first “surprise” is the spy glass. But, it’s not really a surprise because your little one will gt loads of them with every Series 4 doll, when in fact he really only needs one, period.
However…
The beauty of the Fashion Crush for LOL doll lovers is the rest of the contents. Your little one can look forward to a full top to bottom outfit that will fit and mix with other dolls in her collection. Think:
- Top, skirt, shoes
- Crop top, shorts, arm bands, shoes
- Top, shorts, shoes
These are some of the best parts of a full size LOL doll ball without the doll.
The best part?
The price! You can get 6 Fashion Crush in a set for about the price of an LOL doll. Check the price here on Amazon.
Be forewarned: Fashion Crush comes in like a slimy, glitter, gel and can get messy. Let your little one crack it open and then wash the gel off the accessories. This gel should not be keep because it can’t be used again.
3. Buy Lils instead of big sisters for more accessories.
Most little ones focus their energy on LOL tots dolls. When they say they want an LOL doll, they usually mean the tot/big sister.
But…
Lils have value too!
Fortunately, one of those values is to provide more accessories for the big sister. While not an entire outfit, Lil sisters typically have 2 accessories that are sized for big sisters. These outfits can be used to freshen up the fashion shows and provide additional styling options.
An added bonus is that Lils are cheaper and usually more plentiful (easily available) than big sisters so you won’t break the bank getting more accessories.
Check the price of Lil sisters on Amazon…they’re on sale!
4. Trade or buy more LOL doll outfits and accessories from LOL Doll Facebook Groups.
Most people don’t know there’s a whole online marketplace for more LOL doll outfits and it’s called Facebook. Look online in LOL Facebook Groups and you’ll find moms who are selling accessories, dolls, or entire collections.
You may be able to trade outfits (perfect if you have duplicates) or buy a bunch of accessories at a completely reduced priced.
Here are the Facebook Groups we like the best for buying and trading:
- LOL Surprise Buy, Sell, Trade at Cost
- Doll Addicts Buy Sell Trade
- LOL Surprise Dolls Honest Trades and Sales USA
Before You Buy from an LOL Doll Facebook Group
In order to select a group to buy or trade from, be sure to look for a few characteristics:
- The group is closed, meaning it isn’t open entry for just anyone. You have to apply to get in.
- Questions are asked during the application. These questions help keep out spammers and miscellaneous LOL fakers.
- There rules you have to agree to to be in the group. Otherwise, it would be a free for all and you would be unlikely to want to buy something there.
- There is an announcement or post from the group administrator pinned to the top. These are the rules all the group members agree to abide by, super helpful for internet transactions.
Facebook Groups also are perfect places to get boy dolls, trade or sell duplicates, or get specific dolls you’re looking for.
Now that you know how to get more LOL doll outfits, go get them!
