Good Morning Lovelies,
With only a few days to go until the most pink and perfect doll in the world arrives on our screens, it is time to get kitted out. Yes, Barbie is here and I have selected a few recent finds that I think you are going to love to help you get ready for the biggest cinematic event of the year!
From swimsuits to t-shirts, I have got all your clothing and accessories sorted, so that when you walk into the cinema you are looking fierce and fancy. Get ready to wear a lot of pink! It is Wednesday after all…
Barbie And The Rockers World Tour T-Shirt, £22.99, Truffle Shuffle: My favourite thing on this list by far is this t-shirt. I adore everything about it! It is my childhood all wrapped up in one and I am honestly going to be investing in it. Barbie deserves to rock on forever!
Barbie The Movie Neon Print Swimsuit, £14, Primark: If you have seen the teasers, then you know that you need this swimsuit in your life. Whether you wear it like Barbie to roller skate in or as a swimsuit for the pool, the occasions to wear this are endless.
Barbie Multi Print Superga Trainers, £90, Schuh: Barbie trainers are not just for little kids anymore. Superga is bringing back the trend for all with these super smart trainers. They are a little expensive, but they are pure perfection in every way. I might just have to grab myself some and walk around in them with Barbie feet.
Barbie Fleece Blanket, £9, Asda: If like me you like to snuggle up when watching a film then you need this cosy blanket. No judgments will come from me if you take it to the cinema or not. In fact, I will be encouraging it when it is this perfectly pink.
Barbie Silver and Pink Tumbler, £16, Claire’s: Okay, so this may seem a little expensive for a cup, but just think how cool you will look walking into the cinema with your slush or Coke in this. It is a stand out piece that will shine throughout!
Right now, the world is full of pink and perfect merchandise! I can’t get enough of it and I know that as soon as the film comes out even more will be out. And I can’t wait! Who else is with me?

Do you ever have a character that you just get when watching a film or TV show? Or even when you played with toys? Well, for me it was always Ken. Since Toy Story 3, I have felt for him. It may have even been earlier than that. Anyone else remember when he got dumped and a new doll was introduced?
He is a character who shouldn’t be left behind. He brings good vibes, outfits and a whole host of positivity. Especially when it comes to the new vibes that Ryan Gosling is giving as the latest version of the character. My hero!
Therefore, as we head into the second day of Barbie week on the blog, I am giving you the ultimate items to celebrate Ken! He truly deserves us all to mark his moment on screen with these finds…
Not Just Arm Candy Ken T-Shirt, £18, Oasis: This shirt is perfect for all! Stating the truth that Ken is a doll for all and not just to be used as arm candy, it is a shirt to be proud of. Plus, the colour of it is great for summer.
Barbie The Movie Ken Doll with Surfboard, £45, Amazon: The first of two dolls released to mark the film, there is something about this one that is true summer vibes. Ken is the ultimate beach boy and this doll captures it perfectly. Surfs up!
Barbie The Movie Ken Neon Button-Up Shirt, £12, Primark: Have you seen the shots of Ryan Gosling roller skating around the beach in a very vibrant get up? Well, that can now be you thanks to Primark. I brought this and wore it on my birthday recently to give me good vibes. It is truly perfect in every way. Soft, cosy and light for those hot days, use it all year to bring some light into your life.
Ken All Over Print Barbie T-Shirt from Cakeworthy, £32.99, Truffle Shuffle: Heading into the cinema with this beauty on will make sure that everyone knows who you are turning up for. Forget Barbie, it is all about this beauty!
Barbie The Movie Collectible Ken Doll Wearing All-Denim Outfit, £64.98, Amazon: Okay, this is an investment, but it is totally worth it. It is the doll that is giving off the most Kenergy. It is the doll to celebrate the character and the film in full. He even has Ken branded boxers. You get it aha! This is a must-have for me, having made its way onto the top of my wishlist. Fingers crossed someone gets me this for Christmas!
Ken is incredible and I honestly won’t have anyone say a bad word about him! Plus, with my ultimate crush Ryan Gosling playing him, I now can’t get enough and I haven’t even seen the film yet. I know though that when he starts singing I Am Ken, I am going to go wild. Who else is with me when it comes to celebrating this iconic figure? Bring on the Kenergy!

Shopping at Christmas can be mad! However, I am someone who loves to go out, even on Christmas Eve and see everyone rushing around. This year, I did all of my shopping early. I actually love being organised. It means I am able to see what I had, needed and could surprise people with early on.
There so, I thought it would be a nice idea to share with you some of the things I did to prepare for the big day. Especially with just less than a month to go until we all enjoy it. Make a list and check it twice with these helpful tips that you can follow lovelies:
Honestly Make A List: The first thing I did was make a list. Write down all the people you will be buying for, set a budget and cross them off as you go. It makes it so much easier to see what you have and who for. Buying a Christmas planner helped a lot with this in fact, as the lists were already placed out and I just had to feel them in.
Make A Budget Sheet: Spending at Christmas normally goes through the roof, but it doesn’t have to. Set a budget and limit yourself to what you want to spend. It is the thought that counts after all. Many gift guides and online stores now have a helpful option as well of letting you set an amount, so you won’t overspend. Perfection!
Buy For The Unexpected: Always have that friend that pops round unexpectedly with a gift in hand? Make sure to buy a few extra gifts that you can quickly wrap up and give to them. It will save you worrying about not having anything and they can be used at other times of the year too if the same thing occurs.
Wrap As You Go: If you have made a list, know what is what and whose is whose, then you can wrap as you go. It gives you the perfect reason to set up the tree early and you won’t be rushing to do it days before you are meant to give them.
Start in the January Sales: Something my mum has taught me is to start next year’s Christmas shopping in the sales. Starting on Boxing Day, we go all out and buy cards, gifts, wrapping paper and endless amounts of crackers. This year, I will be shopping from my hospital bed with her on FaceTime and I can’t wait!
Hopefully these tips will help you lovelies, as you get ready for the big day. They are super simple and can be remembered easily. Just list, wrap, plan and go. Christmas presents have never been so easy lovelies.
