One Dress 10 Ways: Part II

Behind this blog is a childhood spent poring--lusting!--over those hot pink plastic shell encased packs of Barbie clothes. (Which one would I choose for my birthday?! Which one for Christmas?!) So it only seems right that Part II starts with Pinkity-Pink (And how cool would it be if all these shiny bits were available in miniature, for your very own plus size Barbie?!?)

(Eh, don't worry, it gets funkier as I go along. Lust though I did for the pristine goodies of pak fashion, my Barbies all ended up with tats [free-form ones, mostly as a consequence of my poor management of art supplies], pierced ears, and weird haircuts. They lived in all-female inter-generational communes created from upcycled shoeboxes decorated by yours truly, where the older, harder gals always looked sidelong at bronze beauties with popping knees. There were wild flings with GI-Joe.)
