About Pimp My Barbie

Hi everyone, my name is Vikki, I like to dye my hair in pink streaks sometimes, love fancy dress, Yorkshire Terriers and of course Barbie! I have been collecting Barbie for a few years now since my boyfriend got me Sandy from Grease as a birthday present.

This brought back many memories of my childhood and so I began to recollect Barbie again. At first I couldn't get enough of Barbie just buying randomly but now I have decided to stick to the Barbie Collector dolls and will be selling off my de-boxed dolls and those I have found in various markets and sales.




When I first got Sandy, I became so passionate about collecting, needing to know everything, which dolls where out next, how much they were, what details they had.... so on the way to doing that, I gathered up quite a bit of information and decided "hey, I could start a blog about this". That mixed with learning to customize Barbie dolls, having a go at rerooting hair, ooak doll art and just having fun - and so Pimp My Barbie was born.

Although I am 28 yrs old, I'm not embarrassed to collect Barbie and wear my various Barbie t-shirts with pride, if we can idolize human celebrities, why not Barbie? Since Barbie's 50th Birthday, many fashion designers have jumped on board and realized there are a lot of adult collectors in the world, so have since produced Barbie items with a more adult spin on them, such as clothes, jewellery, actual life-size furniture and home decor.

I really do hope you enjoy browsing Pimp my Barbie, over the last few years I have put a lot of work into it and intend to work some more. If you have any questions about Custom Barbies, Barbie ooak or anything really, just drop me a line via the contact button above and I will get back to you asap. I'm not a professional doll artist but I do have some contacts of people who make amazing doll art, so I can point you in the right direction.

Thanks for reading this, if you got this far without yawning, you might aswell follow me on Twitter too!
