Heart, Be Still...
Mattel Barbie dolls have been breaking the mold lately and changing for the very best. They're focusing more on inspiring young girls to be not only beautiful but SMART too and independent, career chasers. Recently, Barbie has designed dolls to represent artist Frida Kahlo, NASA mathematician Katherine Johnson, Olympian Chloe Kim & more. Now they have added another woman that many of us definitely look up to, Iris Apfel! YES!!! I'm a big Iris Apfel fan. Her style, spirit, and way of life are huge inspirations to me. Iris Apfel has a very successful career in interior design for over a decade and a very interesting life in general. She's the unofficial queen of accessories. Anyone who hasn't watched the documentary 'Iris" definitely should. She's someone the youth should aspire to be like.

"Fans of Apfel won't be able to nab her exact Barbie—the Iris Apfel doll released today is one-of-a-kind. However, Barbie will release a "Styled By" Barbie that takes fashion cues from Apfel later this year. The look: black oversize glasses, chunky necklaces, and bright suiting—a proper tribute to one of the most inspirational style icons of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries."
For your viewing pleasure, here are some gorgeous Iris photos.
Cheers!
