I never had a Barbie....

I don't know why my Mom had a thing against Barbie but I never had a Barbie doll growing up. She bought me a different larger fashion doll then commissioned a local woman to sew a wonderful wardrobe for her. I played with that doll for years.

I have a pinterest board "I never had a Barbie but I would want one like this". It is an extremely popular board! This sorta mystifies me but I have been infiltrating it with feminist links. I figure that if they are scrolling through Barbie outfits, maybe they will check out one of the political links.

I find the Republican war on women truly horrible. I hope American women wake up to the fact that their birth control privileges are being SHUT DOWN!! How can you have a life if you can't have any control over when or if you want to have children?

But that is my opinion. If you just like Barbie, well...enjoy!

Ninja and read all about it!

I like this embroderied tunic. Pairing it with black tights and pointy little flats was simple but effective.

I thought this little cropped sweater was jazzy too. Pop on over to Not Dead Yet Style :http://notdeadyetstyle.blogspot.com/2012/03/visible-monday-37-go-to-knit-dress-for.html

EXTRA, EXTRA, READ ABOUT IT!

After the Rush Limbaugh incident, I started looking at political stuff and was terrified to discover some of the things that have been happening.
