Barbie Games and Halloween

I’ll admit that I’ve always wanted to play Barbie games for Halloween. I’d love nothing more than slipping on a pretty gown and some high heels to be my very own version of a Barbie doll. Granted, the dress might fit me just a bit differently than it would a real Barbie doll, but that’s something we can fix at least by taking advantage of some padding in certain spots. Imagine how much fun it would be to prance down the street bedecked in a sparkly gown with that certain element of glamor and style.

Of course, nobody would know that I was even dressed up as a Barbie doll without a certain element – the ultimate accessory. A big blonde wig would be the final element I needed to really make the costume pop. The long, lustrous locks of blonde would set off the look perfectly. I could walk down the street, showing off my Barbie self, and people from blocks away would be able to appreciate just how great my costume is thanks to the brilliant platinum hair and enhanced figure.  

Barbie Games and Fashion Models

I went searching for a new Barbie game the other day for a birthday present. Normally I love looking through the aisles of Barbie dolls to find just the right one to give as a gift, and there were plenty there to choose from, but I’ll admit I’m a bit disappointed in some of the newer Barbie games in the list. Barbie has always been a hit for birthday parties, but I didn’t see the fun fashions and bright colors that I usually look for in the newest Barbie collection.

The new line of Barbie Basics doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. I get it that they are supposed to look like basic Barbies who might be on the runway, but that’s not the point of real Barbie Games. The Barbie games are really about fun fashions and beautiful gowns. You’re supposed to make believe with the Barbie outfits and games and find new ways to wear the clothing. There isn’t much you can do with a pair of jeans and a tank top. Frankly I was unimpressed. Hopefully they dress up the new Barbie games soon.
