I'm a Barbie Girl...In a New & Improved, Barbie World

Living in Mattel's Barbie world sure has improved.  After wearing 1 billion pairs of shoes, Barbie has finally come to her senses, at 50 years old, and chosen the one and only Shoe God, Christian Louboutin.  Over the year, there will be three different styles for Barbie, all done by Louboutin...and most importantly, packaged in Louboutin shoe boxes-eek!!! According to WWD, Barbie will follow a jewel-thief theme in December, a safari-theme in February, and the ever fabulous Cannes Film Festival-themed Barbie, in May.  Jeeze, what a life this little doll has!
