There is so much going on! I really love all the Barbies. I think it’s great that they’re making her more broadly accessible and realistic these days.
I would LOVE to see the Barbie pop up! I was so into Barbie when I was a kid. I love how much they’ve changed over the years.
New York is a place in my plans for next year. I keep reading so much and it’s time to experience it in person.
Looks like there are tons of great events again this March on NYC.
So many amazing things going on in March in NYC! My girls would be all over the Barbie exhibit, but I’d be more for the Dessert Goals. Nom!
