Round 28: something you love

I picked ”Barbie” (the doll in general, not just the movie) for three reasons: 1. Nostalgia. Barbie was such a HUGE part of my childhood and she continues to bring me a lot of comfort now that I’m an adult who collects dolls too. 2. Fashion. Being able to restyle/dress up my Barbie dolls in different looks has always been one of my favorite things to do. 3. Imagination. I love that Barbie has had over 200+ different careers and it’s fun to imagine myself in all of those different jobs as well.

PS: Mods, could I please have a username tag?

Yay, thank you for joining us! I love how cool and sassy the Barbie in your icon looks! <3 Lovely b/w color combination, too!

I'm adding a user tag for you now.

I love the look of the icon and the text! It makes me feel happy and nostalgic, too. Barbie is an icon, and she really does have fabulous outfits and careers.
