Barbie

Barbie usually enjoys a luxurious life in her Malibu Dreamhouse, but a recent photoshoot by Russian "doll photographer" Lara Vychuzhanina sees the iconic doll and her partner living in an entirely different way of life. The artist crafted a true-to-life diorama of a Soviet-era apartment kitchen, revealing what they would look like if they lived in the former USSR in 1986.

The iconic plastic doll is known for being a symbol of feminine perfection since she was introduced 60 years ago. But, people on Twitter are now imagining violence, crime, and other scandals that might be hiding beneath her (literally) shiny veneer.

It's Barbie's 60th Birthday and we thought it would be great to celebrate it with this hipster barbie Instagram accountwho does a great job of mocking the unoriginal, stereotypical and tremendously "authentic" posts that we see on Instagram every day. 

The Mattel brand has just unveiled 17 new dolls, paying tribute to the most inspiring women. Artist Frida Kahlo, aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart, French chef Hélène Darroze, mathematician Katherine Johnson and snowboarder Chloe Kim are some of the great female figures that the famous Barbie doll will embody.
