Cat Burglar Barbie By Christian Louboutin

Christian Louboutin joined forces with his goddaughter and muse Barbie to create a stylish limited edition doll, Cat Burglar Barbie. The doll comes with 4 red-soled Louboutins, each with their own shoe bag and box. Should I be upset that this plastic confection owns more Louboutins than I do?

For those of you wondering what to put under the tree for me next month, look no further. Just in time for the holidays AND the debut of the Runaways' biopic starring Dakota Fanning and Twilight star Kristen Stewart, Mattel has launched their  "Ladies of the '80s" Barbie Collection.  The collection features Debbie Harry (below), Cyndi Lauper, and of course Joan Jett (above).  Watch out Malibu Barbie, the Joan doll has a bad reputation.

Black Barbie, So In Style

 

Mattel launched a new line of black Barbie dolls called, 'So In Style'. The dolls have 'more authentic'  facial features, including fuller lips, a wider nose, and curlier hair but unlike the Barbie we all know and love, the 'So In Style' girls do not have big tah tahs. The collection features 3 teens: Grace, Kara, and Trichelle - all best friends who are all about fashion, fun, and friendship. Each of the three dolls come with a  little sister, the idea being to introduce girls to what Mattel calls 'mentoring themes'.  They forgot to make one based on me and my sister. Our favorite activity was fighting over the TV and ganging up on my brother.

The Barbie Mobile by Fiat 


And you thought your toy Barbie Dream House was the ultimate Barbie accessory. Made in collaboration with Mattel, the Fiat 500 Barbie comes fitted with Swarovski crystal-encrusted hubcaps, window moldings, and antenna. Talk about BLING. The crystals even outline the doll’s famous silhouette. Only five examples have been made and each costs roughly $125,000.
