Barbie for President!!!















That’s right my loves, Barbie is running for President of the United States for the 5th time!  And for a girl who’s been running this long, she hasn’t aged one bit!

Designer Chris Benz, who’s designed pieces for the real first lady, Michelle Obama, was enlisted to create a professional and fashionable outfit to make sure the Lady Prez hopeful looks her absolute best. 

The skirt suit chosen for Barbie is in the same print as a suit designed for Miss Obama, but this one’s in pink, naturally.  He added red, white, and blue ribbon accents to make it fun and flirty.

And here’s something even more fun:  the magnetic pink wedges she’s wearing?  They don’t just look good, they actually allow Barbie to stand up on her own!  That’s a first for the plastic icon!  You can pre-order her for $14 at mattelshop.com

Are you voting Barbie this year?
