The Mix and Match Outfit as seen on what appears to be Just Like You 6 (first release) with writing books.
The Mix and Match Outfit is the first meet outfit for the American Girl of Today line. It was introduced with the debut of the line in 1995 and shortly replaced by the First Day Outfit in 1996.
Outfit[]
This outfit has several variations due to manufacture by different factories. It was not generally available for purchase separately as it was offered with the first dolls in the line; however, for a short time the outfit was offered during a clearance sale in limited quantities.
Shirt[]

Short-sleeved magenta t-shirt. Velcros up the back.

Card packaged with dolls that came with Mary Jane Flats.
For a period of time, some dolls came with plastic Mary Jane shoes like Samantha's and Molly's because of manufacturing defects with the black suede flats.
