Barbie® Styled by Design™ Doll #1 | Review and Unboxing

[@Ms.D-loves-minis3]

Such dramatic makeup on this model ❤ Matches beautifully with the colors and design of this simple design dress 🤩 even though I’m not seeing any 70s inspiration 😳 Seventies fashion was NOT this 🫤 Even still, this is a very beautiful model and I really hope you didn’t have to pay too much to acquire her 💖✨

@@Ms.D-loves-minis3 I know, right? 😅 I think they just got the decade mixed up or something. Definitely not ‘70s in my opinion as well. And thanks Ms. D, I’m glad you like her. Unfortunately I actually did pay a little bit more for her. 😞 But at least it wasn’t double or more than the original price as I went for the cheapest listing. I know I keep dunking on Mattel Creations, but I do wish they’d ship to the Philippines again. These scalpers are asking for too much and they’re new releases! 😣

Congratulations - she made it to you. I hope you didn't spend to much on her. She is a gorgeous doll. The color combination is awesome and, as an extra, she comes with "real" jewelry. I am not a big fan of the ModelMuse body so I am glad the gown fits an MTM quite OK - at least it is not slipping. 💖🧡❤🖤

Girlfriend recently ordered this do you recommend taking the rhinestone earrings out or is it ok to to leave in as she is an inbox collector

[@asherbarbara9]

@@michaelwood4661 I highly recommend removing them. I’ve had green ear before several times on dolls with metal earrings. Some developed over time, and some had green ear the minute I purchased them. I really wouldn’t risk it. Your GF can actually open the lid at the top and reach out to the doll’s head to remove the earrings. At least this way, she doesn’t need to completely unbox the doll.

I have her!! Love her!! Just wish there was more "color pigment" in her pupils. Do you ever do repaints on Barbies? I'm just getting into that phase now.

[@asherbarbara9]

@@RussellHarrison0975 That’s so cool that you’re getting into doll repainting! Good luck. Personally I simply don’t have the skill or talent to do a full repaint. 😅

[@RussellHarrison0975]

@@asherbarbara9 It's definitely not easy, but I'm trying. Right now I'm repainting the 2023 Dia De Los Muertos Barbie. Removed all that face paint and repainting her. She has a silkstone head and vinyl body - it's weird.

[@iamsoverybored878]

Sucks you had to get her from a re seller, considering she's still available from Mattel Creations.

[@anthonytin9973]

This has been the most high fashionable Barbie recently. I really don't see the 70s from her. If Mattel had supported shipping to Hong Kong, I would already have had her.

One thing I hate about the collector barbies is that their not articulated at all well at least most if not all the time😭
