Lucille Ball would have been 100 years old today. Here's a clip from one of my favorite I Love Lucy episodes.

Welcome to my World
What in the world is a grown woman doing collecting Barbie dolls, let alone blogging about it? It mean, really?! What is the world coming to? LOL I've heard those sentiments so many times and guess what? I don't care. I love my Barbies!
The name of this blog came from my brother. He would look at the Barbies in my bedroom and the dolls that came in when I ordered, shake his head and say "Vanessa, Don't just play Barbie, be Barbie!" Thus the title of this blog. If he had any idea that he would contribute to this I'm sure he would have kept that comment to himself.
Anyhoo, I'm just doing this to have fun and relieve a bit of stress. I'm also incorporating my love for fashion and accessories into this blog. Stay tuned and feel free to join in. :)

A repaint is the removal of the factory paint, and then the repainting of the features to create a brand new one of a kind doll, that usually has a much more realistic, or interesting appearance.
Thank you for sharing with us. If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.
Love it! I hope it's one of the 30+ I win. Will you dolls support me in this "I Confess, I Collect" Barbie Collector contest? http://www.gay.net/boys-love-barbie-too/2011/08/15/enter-i-confess-i-collect
Thanks! xx, barbie boy
