Celebrity Birthday: Barbie Turns 50

So I was looking at one of my favorite blogs, Hostess with the Mostess, and came across a post about a fabulous 50th birthday party. Now this isn't just any party, this is for the one and only, BARBIE. 50 years is a big accomplishment, so they had to go big or go home. They went big. The got Colin Cowie, event planner to the stars, and famed interior designer Jonathan Adler to team up to create a real life size version of Barbie's Malibu Beach House for a true Malibu Barbie. How Fun.

So of course there has to be PINK EVERYWHERE. Even the car was Barbiefied.

The bedroom, WOW...Pink, Pink, Pink...

...all the way down to the 50 pairs of PINK peep-toe heals in Barbie's closet...

And here's the living room, with a focal point of a fantastic round sofa framing a custom Barbie Rug.

Here's a little fun fact...the black damask antique style frames are from...IKEA.

Now that's what I call a mirror...

And here is the sitting room, with Barbie's own custom fabric of course.

And, you may be wondering what that chandelier in the center of the room is covered with...that would be Barbie wigs...now that's what I call original art work.

Quintessential Malibu Mansion

And Barbie spending her time poolside of course.
