The Real Malibu Dream House

So when I heard the news that there was a REAL BARBIE MALIBU DREAM HOUSE, I had to see just what wonders were brewing inside it's walls. With Jonathan Adler at the design head, I knew it could be magical...and it does not disappoint. Put together for her 50th Birthday, the house is any pink fan's wet dream. Covered in her signature color, there's an entire closet filled with pink heels, tulle skirted chairs, and more whimsical decor than I've ever seen packed into one room. Click here to view the article and more photos. And don't forget to visit Pink Addict to start a Malibu dream house of your own!

My assistant

Yuri helps...

This is my work desk pretty much everyday. Yuri rolls around and tries to hit the numlock button with her noggin'. She's super cute, but I can't say that she's very productive...

Bawls!

Bawls! Introduced by a friend many years ago, I've always loved their bottles...who doesn't love nubs??? Though, I'm drinking it out of a can currently, it's still good. I see that they offer G33k beer and Cherry flavored too (the can apparently changes colors when cold!)...I really want some Cherry. ON A MISSION.

Virtual Wall of Babes

When I was 12, I had wallpaper made of cute boy pin ups. It was absurd...Jonathan Brandis, Mike Vitar...and so many more. My older brother dubbed this fiasco the "Wall of Babes". Today, I was reminded of my WOB past when my girl Frankie sent me over the below images. I now dub this blog segment, Virtual Wall of Babes! Since my Buffy obsession is epic, I'm starting with my 2 current favorites. Delicious.

Bat's Day Survival

Every year, the Goth kids of the world (or...Southern California) meet up at the happiest place on earth. Sound unlikely? It actually makes a super fun pair. Bat's Day in the Park is a gathering of spookies from around the country held at Disneyland in Anaheim, CA. The weekend includes concerts, vendors, and so much more! This year, I will be vending with Pink Addict, VersAtelier will have a booth, and Forgetmelots and 3ssica will be slingin' cards. Saturday will be a whirlwind day of products...and hopefully some cash along the way.
Sunday is the actual day...I have NO idea what I'm wearing, but I've put together a list of must haves for the long day at the park.

1. SUNSCREEN. You're goth, right? Who wants a tan, burn, or freckle?
Barbie Sunscreen

2. PARASOL. Goes hand in hand with #1. Keep you head cool and look adorable whilst acting responsible.

3. COMFY FOOTWEAR. Don't sacrifice style! Plan you outfit around your footwear and you won't have to feel like a putz in a corset with cross trainers. I'm a big fan of flat maryjanes, comfy combat boots and ballet flats for this occasion. Cyber kids? Throw up some worn in platform sneakers and you should be good to go.
Minnie Mouse Maryjanes
Shoes from Emandsprout

4. BACKPACK. Handbags and box purses may look cute, but you'll be ready to throw it into the Pirates of the Carribean before the night is over. A medium size backpack is the ONLY way to go. Messenger bags are good too...anything that's easily comfy and hands free.
Sexy Anemone Bags
Sexy Anemone bags...available at Plastikwrap

5. CAMERA. This event is really a site. Hundreds of goth kids smooshed with middle class families...who doesn't want to capture that? Bring a small, lower-end camera...or your cellphone could do!
Hello Kitty Camera

6. SUNGLASSES. This is a no-brainer. It's So-Cal, kiddies.
Polka Dot Sunnies!

7. POCKET MIRROR. Chances are, you've got some form of make up on. What better time to touch up than in line for Space Mountain??

MOST IMPORTANT: Please don't be boring. This is a time to dress up and be RIDICULOUS! Here are some sample outfits for inspiration:
