Barbie and Parasol

Barbie and Parasol
A windchill of minus 40?  Snow, snow, snow?  Do you think Barbie cares?

Barbie hasn't had a wedding all week and the Southern Belle look suits this weather perfectly. 

The shape of the skirt reminds me of those birthday cakes they make sometimes.  Don't try to eat this Barbie.  I can assure you, the plastic used for Barbies is really hard to chew.

    I love your attention to Barbie's accessories, like this darling parasol and dainty headband.

      Thank you. The parasol was a real challenge to me.
