16. backstory: youngji, the littlest ahgase

One of my favorite characterization elements to play with when it comes to my #4, Youngji Park, is the fact that she is a huge fangirl of K-pop boy group GOT7. I figured it's past time to document how that all came about and ways I've worked it into her story over the last year.

8. barbie fashionista review: blue brocade

When the 2016 Fashionistas were unveiled last year, there were three I immediately knew I had to have: Leather and Ruffles, Blue Violet, and Blue Brocade. Blue Brocade was my tax refund indulgence last year, and remained my only Fashionista for months. (In large part because I couldn't locate Fab Fringe anywhere offline but Wal-Mart, yes, but that is a story for another day.) She rapidly became my favorite out of all the Fashionistas, and remains so even now that my collection has expanded so much.  

So I was beyond disappointed when I saw that she was one of the Barbies being offered for clearance this year. As of last week, my local Wal-Mart was offering her for as low as $4. I quickly decided that we were due for a blog review, so that we could explore how amazing she is together!

7. backstory: my ever after high collection

I also have some miniature figures, including for Monster High, Sailor Moon, and even my favorite K-pop group, GOT7, that just might put in some appearances from time to time.
