All Dolled Up OOTD

All Dolled Up OOTD

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new OOTD here on lifewithlilred! Today, we are going to take a look at what I wore to see the Barbie movie this past weekend. It was such fun to unleash my inner Barbie and get All Dolled up! This was my first experience wearing pink since I don’t know how long and I thought it couldn’t have gone better. Is it my new favorite color? Hard no. But maybe a few more pretty in pink pieces wouldn’t hurt! Lol, let’s get to it:

Who? What? Wear?

Pink Dress: See You Monday, TJMaxx

Floral Platforms: Qupid, TJMaxx

Lego Earrings: AbbieDabbles

Candy Heart Necklace: Betsey Johnson, TJMaxx

Telephone Purse: Betsey Johnson, Macy’s

I have no idea where the sunglasses are from!

Getting ready for the Barbie movie was like the ultimate form of playing dress up. I knew the movie was going to be pure fun even before seeing it and I needed a look to match! The See You Monday bodycon dress made for a very easy OOTD because all I needed to do was put it on. However, Barbie dolls don’t just serve looks through clothing alone but with their accessories too. Because I wasn’t building a full outfit, accessorizing allowed my imagination to soar all the way to Barbie Land.

As I browsed the accessory department in my boutique room, there were four key pieces I wanted to focus on: A statement necklace, sunglasses, stud earrings, and a great purse. No Barbie doll is complete without them! With my parameters determined, all I needed to do was shop around! For my necklace, I chose an adorable candy heart style one by Betsey Johnson. This was a birthday gift from my sister and it added a rainbow pop of color and some sparkly bling. It was just right and complimented the negative space I was working with without overpowering it.

Next up was sunglasses and I already knew exactly what I wanted because I envisioned it when I tried my dress on at TJMaxx! For sunnies, I selected my white cat eye pair with a cute black bow in the corner. This was a nod to retro Barbie dolls and would also help set the stage for my purse that featured the same color palette. I loved how the stark white of the sunnies looked against the magenta dress! The Lego earrings were also a tip of the cap to old school Barbie dolls that just had simple studs in their ears. Of course, my simple studs involved Lego leaves with a ladybug on it – but they were a stud pair none of the less. 😀

When it came to accessorizing my All Dolled Up OOTD, I wanted pieces that were playful. The piece de resistance was my Betsey Johnson phone purse. You can actually plug the phone handle into your phone and talk on it and it doesn’t get more playful than that! Betsey Johnson accessories were the way to go for this look and her pieces remind me of real life Barbie accessories. They are so fun and charming and made me feel like a Barbie doll in the real world too.

The last thing to complete this look was a fabulous pair of heels and my floral platforms by Qupid were the winner. No flat feet for this Barbie girl! While I could have chose my Barbie pink platforms by Marc Fisher, I decided against it. Since my dress was only one color and two of my accessories were neutral, I could have worn a shoe with any pattern and it would have worked. The Qupid platforms had the playful flare I wanted and made me feel like Barbie from head to toe!

My All Dolled Up OOTD was an absolute blast to style and I felt fantastic in it. If a Barbie doll was ever made of Lil Red, I would hope that she would be in this look!

What did you wear to the Barbie movie? Do you have a lot of pink clothes? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

  1. Haven’t seen the movie… probably won’t till it streams (I don’t like movie audiences these days). I have surprisingly little pink clothing… off hand, I can only think of a casual jumpsuit and worn out Cat Lady Pride shirt.

    You look great!
