Cali Collection...LYKE O-M-G!

oh boy, yesterday Tiffany and I discovered what could possibly be the most frightening and just..UGH. toy out there yesterday. gah it is so stereo-typical. to a horrifying extent.

Barbie now has a "Cali" collection, comprised of Cali girls, Cali guys and other assorted acessories. All of them are of course nicely and evenly tanned all over, with perfect blond or brunette hair, they surf in the morning, ride horses in the afternoon and watch the sunsets at night...aaah that's the life... They also all wear surf gear or bikini's and here's the kicker...they're all scented. I am SO serious. dude they really are. They all smelled like coconut oil or SPF 45...as you do of course.

here are some direct quotes...

"Lea® doll loves chillin' at the beach — and she knows how to do it in style! Her suntanned "skin" looks gorgeous with her lavender-colored top and matching shorts. She's even scented like suntan lotion! She's ready to grab her board and slice up the surf!"


A real beauty at the beach — that’s Barbie® doll! She’s looking super adorable in stylin’ blue shorts and a sporty top. She's scented like suntan lotion, too! With her sunglasses and totally rad surfboard, she’s sooo ready for sun-and-surf fun with friends!

my favorite? the token black guy. of course he's gotta have a fro...it isn't mentioned, but he too is scented.

This handsome dude is ready to soak up the sun and have some fun! Dressed in super-hip board shorts and matching wetsuit top, Steven® doll totally knows how to hit the beach in style. And he’s got an awesome new surfboard for riding major waves!


...oh boy. I can understand all of the other stuff..but do we have to be scented!?!?!?!?!
