Raevyn emailed me this doll line description:
I am looking for help in identifying a doll series. I no longer have them, but they were made in the late 1980's or early 199'0s. The dolls looked like everyday girls but their outfits could be flipped, which would turn them into their ideal career choice. For instance, one doll's outfit could be flipped to turn her into an astronaut. Another was a baseball player. I believe another was a "rockstar." They were cloth dolls with yarn hair (I think). I'd say they were about 8 inches tall. Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!"

Play-Ground Kids Pretend Dress-Up by Ertl (1991)?
Looks like the dolls keep wearing their normal outfit but some accessories can be added on for the "career."

Could it have been a Cabbage Patch series?
The yarn hair & cloth bodies makes me think of this, but not sure if they ever had reversible outfits.
Or a Topsy Turvy doll?
