I was thinking of this whole new thing lady gaga is preaching of how people are born a certain way. Along with the Nikki a native Trinidadian like my mother who considered her self a Barbie for a while. So my questions are which one do I agree with? I like looking cute but then sometimes I think its better to let your true colors shine through.
But thinking about Barbie’s they have this new show called the real ken. It’s basically like a search for Ken. Who is said to be trying to get back with Barbie. Which lead me to remember I never really had my own Barbie because she was always white. So I went on a search for a Barbie that looked like me. And guess what I found.
First I found some of the fly white ones that I always wanted.
Then I some well I will say shapely Barbie's....
Well I finally found an African American Barbie
There was even a VOGUE issue on it.
This one was interesting I kinda want to buy it.
But the best out of it all is the Barbie with dreads.
And here is some of the web sites that i found them on.

So when you have a child and she asks for a Barbie be sure to find her one that looks like her. There are so many of them.
