I have loved Barbie dolls since I was a little girl. I can remember getting my very first Barbie when I was 5 or 6 years old. She had a beautiful cinnamon complexion, long black silky hair and bold pink eye shadow and lip gloss. She was the only doll I played with for years until my younger brother ripped her head off (le sigh). I actually cried because I loved that doll so much. But Barbie has come a long way since my childhood.
Earlier this year, Mattel announced a new limited-edition tokidoki Barbie featuring a pink bob, hot pink mini skirt, sky-high sparkly silver stilettos, and tattoos across her chest, arms, and back. GO BARBIE!!
While this temporary look caused quite a stir among parents, this doll was meant to be a collectors item for adults. This is definitely not the Barbie I remember as a little girl. What do you think of Barbie's more modern (though limited time) look?
