beastmode Barbie
OVERALL RATING
Growing up I longed to have role models that fit the part on the outside with everything I secretly loved about me on the inside... Sadly that was rarely the case. Instead I was surrounded by societal pressures that said unless you're pretty, popular, petite and perfect then sorry but you're just not meeting the 'standards' as set by Barbie herself. Receiving this message after my 'Barbie blew up on my face' comment during this past weekends photo shoot, reassured me that I'm no longer living by Barbie's standards. Rather I'm setting my own set of beautifully "Beastmode Barbie" expectations...and I love it!!! "In response to the barbie doll that blew up on your face post (btw...funny as hell) I wish I had a strong Jill Hanson "barbie" doll growing up instead of the size zero mold who walked on her tippy toes like she was going to break and 9 times out of ten she did whether it was a limb falling or head popping off lol. So glad to have the real life Jill Hanson in my life right now who does not fit into a one size mold but rather breaks the mold in everything she does. Who does not walk around on her tip toes like she is afraid to break but rather stands strong with both feet on the ground pushing not only herself to be better every day but motivating each person that walks into her life that they can do it and are worth it. The blush and lip gloss are an extra sexy somethin somethin that we gals all enjoy putting on and only enhances the natural beauty that already exists inside. You look beautiful!!!" Ps. Dear Matel: I think your next Barbie should be called #jacked & #classy Night??
