Barbie's 50th Birthday
Happy 50th Birthday Barbie!
Who doesn't know Barbie? Girls from all ages and even boys heard about her. Her classic beauty, career and lifestyle. I even had few of my own Barbie collection. I even remembered declaring when I was a little kid that when I become super ultra rich, I will have my very own fantastic and numerous collection of Barbie dolls. Well, some things really change and some dreams even fade away. I would still want to buy a few Barbies but I already deleted the idea of having my Barbie museum all together. If there is Barbie, who can forget Ken :)
It's been 50 years, and Barbie really evolved, have you seen the first Barbie dolls produced? It seemed that stripes swim wear was a hit!
According to my readings, her name was adopted from the name Barbara ( the daughter of Ruth Handler - one of the brilliant mind behind Barbie) Anyway, have you ever imagined if Barbie's face aged also? Who would want to buy that? ( Barbie enthusiast maybe) I saw this picture on the net and it was hilarious :

I always had that illusive dream of becoming a Princess or becoming like Barbie. Obviously, I am way far from being one.. hahaha..( that's a relief) I think she has Multiple Identity Disorder ( more hahaha..) I just have few...:)
Oh well, so much for the little history and drama...Happy Birthday Barbie and cheers to all the ladies who once inspired to be a "Barbie" on her own rights!
