Barbie clothing
No people, not the teeny little outfits designed for that beloved little plastic tart Barbie (complete with stripper style velcro fastenings- classy) but the dilemma of what to wear to one’s first barbeque of the summer. Of course as it’s still May the weather can change in a flash, so that rules out the pretty Grecian maxi dresses I’m planning to live in later in the summer while pretending to be Diane Kruger in Troy. Instead I shall seek inspiration from the ultimate blonde bombshell herself, Marilyn Monroe. I love her shirt tucked into skinny, high waisted jeans look she wore off-set. They’ll keep me warm and the high waist will hold in all the sausages I plan on eating. Very 50’s Americana darlings, so right now. I shall attempt to recreate the look with a pair from Topshop I bought for forty five quid, a vintage floral shirt, and get the ‘girls’ out in a new baby pink lace confection I bought today, £18 by Caprice.
