One of my favorite childhood memories is when my sister and I would sit in our rooms for HOURS playing with our Barbies. We would sit on the floor picking out our favorite clothing and accessories and then make up these random story lines in which our Barbies would play out. It was such a fun time and it’s exciting to see my daughter have the same fun experiences with Barbie that I did at her age. Of course a lot of things have changed since the days of my Peaches N Cream Barbie. Now Barbie is Inspiring and Empowering young girls through the power of play.
Barbie Fashionistas
A few months ago I heard about the new Barbie Fashionistas. These Barbies are made with their own unique qualities like being tall, petite or curvy. And even with freckles on their cheeks. I absolutely LOVE these new Barbie dolls because it teaches our young girls that everyone of us is beautiful and unique and that’s what makes us special.
When I gave my daughter Aubrey these Barbie dolls I didn’t say anything to her about how these dolls were unique with their own special qualities. Within minutes she was saying how the tall Barbie looked like her friend and the Curvy Barbie reminded her of one of her favorite teachers. She was beyond excited.
But the thing that made these dolls so special to me is when I saw how bright her eyes got when she saw that the Barbie Fashionistas Glam Team doll had freckles on her cheeks just like she does.
The new Barbie Fashionistas line features a variety of different dolls each unique in their own way. You will find these Barbies have different shapes and sizes and even features.
The Barbie Fashionistas Aubrey received included:
- Barbie Fashionistas Doll 30 White and Pink Pizzazz – Tall
- Barbie Fashionistas Doll 25 Blue Brocade – Petite
- Barbie Fashionistas Doll 22 Chambray Chic – Curvy
- Barbie Fashionistas Glam Team doll
Barbie has been inspiring young girls for years to dream big and to be what you want to be. I love the diversity of the new Barbie Fashionistas and look forward to adding many more to Aubrey’s collection. She is constantly inspired by Barbie and just recently decided that she would love to learn how to do makeup and hair, so what better way to help her practice that with the Barbie deluxe styling head.
