you may not know, you may not even care that Barbie, Lil Lola’s sister from another mister, is on a cross-country road trip of the United States in search of a new home and about to blow through Beantown.
you probably do know that LOLA (me) enjoys taking Lil Lola to places around the world. she is not a doll that can sit still for long. in fact, you might recall that Lil Lola actually traded in her dream house and downsized to a vacay cabana property last year so she could be more mobile. clearly, her pal Barbie caught on to the idea and decided she didn’t have to reside in Malibu for the rest of her life – smart gals!!
well, it was recently brought to my attention that the Barbie Road Trip is stopping through Boston and you know that Lil Lola and i couldn’t resist the opportunity to check this event out. what we expect to do at the “Barbie® Is Moving” experience is:
- Walk the runway in a glam fashion show and get tips from professional stylists before a fab photo opportunity
- Build our own Mega Bloks® Barbie™ room to take home
- Create our very own Barbie® fashions
yes, we’re aware that we will most likely be the OLDEST people there actually doing these activities. GUESS WHAT…we don’t care! after all, Lil Lola and i know you only live once and we might not have this chance again.
i mean, c’mon, Barbie is really a chick after our own hearts. let us count the ways…
favorite color – HOT PINK!
car choice – PINK convertible
love of fashion & believes she can BE ANYTHING she sets her mind to – we agree
one of her fave sayings – “keep calm and think pink” TRES BON
heck, the doll even uses the phrase ‘Barbie Approved’ – say whaaaa?!? hello ‘LOLA APPROVED‘!!
Lola Barbie & her real life Ken!!
So, after i tweeted @Barbie yesterday, Lil Lola & i were invited to be VIP Bloggers for the Boston event being held tomorrow at Boston Harborfest, 1 City Hall Square, Boston. can you believe?! VIP!! we knew it was our destiny!
if you want to get on the Barbie is Moving Tour fun – join us tomorrow or at these other Massachusetts locations on Saturday & Sunday.
July 6 – Toys “R” Us, 1190 S. Washington Street, North Attleboro, MA
July 7 – Toys “R” Us, 105 Campanelli Industrial Drive, Brockton, MA

they were on the small side, Ted, but they didn’t think it was odd that a woman had her own Barbie doll in tow and was doing all the activities along side them. the kids are alright with moi 😉
I would have paid good money to see you play with Lil Lola and the other Barbies. Cant wait to see photos of the event!

I think this must be kismet. Lil Lola (and Lola) were in heaven with all that pink, glitter, and other fabulousness.

you would have had fun with me there Miss Scarlett! xx
This. Is. AMAZING. Also, I have to say that Ken doll’s hair colour is more similar to mine and not quite so dark, but whatever… 😉
Anyway, I cannot wait to read your Barbie post. And on a side-note, you NEED to check out the YouTube series ‘The Most Popular Girls In School’. You’ll thank me for it, although Lil’ Lola may start to develop a colourful vocabulary if she watches it…
