Our Barbiecore era is upon us, and we're thrilled to have our favorite leading lady back in the spotlight.
One of the most popular trending hashtags on TikTok, Barbiecore is all about embracing the famous heroine's feminine side, fuchsia wardrobe—dopamine dressing, anyone?—and home decor accents.
We've all been in a pink state of mind since the 2023 live action Barbie movie trailer dropped. (You need to have a look at the Barbie movie plot conspiracy theories and Barbie movie memes.) Plus, celebs like Kim Kardashian and Megan Fox have embraced the ultra-girly aesthetic as well. And we don't need to tell you thank pink hair is super in right now...if you're brave enough to toy with your locks.
For you Barbie girls in a Barbie world, here's what you need to know about the latest social media craze. Cottagecore? Oh, that's so last year. (But, yes, we'll still take that Reformation dress thankyouverymuch.)
Barbiecore inspo: Margot Robbie as Barbie
"Our goal is to be like, 'Whatever you’re thinking, we’re going to give you something totally different—the thing you didn’t know you wanted," Robbie told The Hollywood Reporter in December 2020 about her new role.
Looks like Barbie is going to have a few tricks up her sleeve! At this time, we haven't been treated to much in the way of plot—just neon pink—but we do know that Greta Gerwig and her partner Noah Baumbach have co-written the screenplay for the film.
And yes, it'll definitely be a pink feast for the senses: "The dream houses? You’ll see some dream houses," Robbie told Variety. "And it will be everything you ever dreamed of."

Dua Lipa's 'Dance the Night' for the 'Barbie' movie
Playing a blue mermaid Barbie in the upcoming film, Dua Lipa is doing her part to make sure the movie's arrival is nothing short of a party. On Friday, May 26, she'll be releasing a dance-worthy new track she's created for the film: "Dance the Night". We're patiently waiting to add it to our Spotify playlist.
Looks like it's officially Barbie's world and we're just living in it! No complaints, though.
