Writing two smaller reviews in one week didn't work out as well as I'd hoped. Some family stuff came up, and everything always takes longer than I expect. Another part of the problem was that I kept adding dolls to this review, and the dolls were too much fun! I had a really great time with them and didn't want to stop playing. That's been a bit of a theme for Barbie Month as a whole, though, so it shouldn't have come as a surprise. But I managed to get everything ready for you before the opening night of the Barbie movie, and that was my goal, so it's all good. Once I've seen the movie, I can start talking about the dolls that it inspired.
The idea for today's post was not to review anything in-depth, but rather to showcase and celebrate Barbie's growing acknowledgement of diversity, equity, and inclusivity over the years. And for this, I decided to focus most of my attention on the Fashionistas--a group of dolls that I seldom talk about on this blog. It's a pretty wonderful group:
