Under Arrest

So. You know that one Barbie movie meme where Barbie and Ken are arrested twice and they have those mugshots? I was thinking of "what if my characters were in that situation". It was Angel. It was 100% Angel. Penelope was unfortunately there by association. Canonically, although Angel has to be knowledgeable about the law and the legal system in the heavens and in the Mortal Realm, he doesn't really regard the human legal systems as much. It's mainly due to immortality, but also the preconceived notion that human laws don't apply to gods. Penelope is used to living among human society and their laws applying, so she does take them seriously. Angel would take them seriously only when Penelope is harmed by them. I can confidently say Angel will be the first one to see all the flaws in the jail and will slip out as soon as nobody is watching. And he will get Penelope out (later). He's... an escape artist. He could teleport out first, but that's not very fun to do. It is an option though. The colors and casual outfits were also a lot of fun to experiment and work with.

Deconstructing the Message of Barbiecore

Hey there, lovely readers! Welcome back to "Fashion Fables," your go-to source for insightful commentary on fashion through a multidisciplinary lens. Today, we're delving into the fascinating world of Barbiecore, a viral fashion trend that's been making waves recently. We'll be dissecting the underlying messages of two articles that shed light on this trend: "The Long, Complicated, and Very Pink History of Barbiecore" by Cady Lang on TIME and "What Is Barbiecore? Everything to Know About the Viral Fashion Trend Inspired by Barbie" by Skyler Caruso on PEOPLE.

The Long, Complicated, and Very Pink History of Barbiecore by Cady Lang

In the article by Cady Lang on TIME, published on June 27, 2023, we are introduced to the concept of Barbiecore. Lang discusses how Barbiecore is a fashion trend inspired by the iconic Barbie doll, known for its pink hues and glamorous style. The article unravels the history of Barbie, how it evolved as a symbol of beauty standards, and how it has influenced modern fashion. Lang emphasizes that Barbiecore's resurgence signifies a shift in embracing individuality and subverting traditional notions of femininity.

What Is Barbiecore? Everything to Know About the Viral Fashion Trend Inspired by Barbie by Skyler Caruso

Skyler Caruso's article on PEOPLE, updated on July 19, 2023, further explores the Barbiecore trend. Caruso highlights the aesthetic elements of Barbiecore fashion, such as bold colors, retro-inspired outfits, and playful accessories. The article describes how social media platforms have contributed to the trend's popularity, as influencers and fashion enthusiasts share their interpretations of Barbiecore. Caruso also touches on the inclusivity aspect of Barbiecore, where individuals of all genders and body types can participate in the trend.

Identifying the Mediated Messages

It's crucial to recognize that all media messages are constructed with a creative language. In the case of these articles, the authors use language and visuals to convey the essence of the Barbiecore trend. They also present the trend in a specific light, reflecting the values and perspectives of the platforms they represent.

Deconstructing the Content

Cady Lang's article on TIME unravels the extensive history of Barbie and how it has influenced the emergence of the Barbiecore trend. It traces Barbie's evolution from her inception as a toy to her transformation into a cultural icon. This article highlights the intricate relationship between Barbie's legacy and the resurgence of pink-hued, nostalgic fashion.

Skyler Caruso's piece on PEOPLE takes a more contemporary approach, providing a comprehensive overview of the Barbiecore trend. The article breaks down the trend's key characteristics, from its emphasis on pink aesthetics to its celebration of nostalgia. It also discusses how influencers and fashion enthusiasts have embraced Barbiecore as a form of self-expression.

Both articles construct messages that celebrate the Barbiecore trend, albeit from slightly different angles. Lang's article on TIME emphasizes the historical significance of Barbie and the trend's potential to challenge beauty norms. It connects Barbiecore to a broader cultural shift towards embracing diverse forms of self-expression.

On the other hand, Caruso's article takes a more visual approach. It highlights the visual elements and accessibility of Barbiecore, catering to a younger, trend-focused audience. The inclusion of social media as a driving force behind the trend speaks to the influence of profit and power in shaping fashion trends through digital platforms.

Presenting Key Ideas

These messages can be further deconstructed as we delve into the key concepts and ideas presented in these articles:

Constructed Narrative

The construction of narratives in media plays a pivotal role in shaping how we perceive trends like Barbiecore. Both articles construct narratives around Barbiecore. In Cady Lang's TIME article, the narrative skillfully weaves together the history of Barbie, the evolution of fashion, and broader cultural shifts. By connecting Barbie's legacy with contemporary fashion, the article suggests that Barbiecore is more than just a trend – it's a culmination of decades of influence. This narrative appeals to readers' sense of nostalgia and appreciation for cultural history, positioning Barbiecore as a bridge between the past and the present.

On the other hand, Skyler Caruso's PEOPLE article takes a more immediate approach. It frames Barbiecore as a viral sensation rooted in nostalgia and self-expression, highlighting its current popularity and the way it has quickly captured the attention of fashion enthusiasts. This narrative capitalizes on the fast-paced nature of digital media and social trends, portraying Barbiecore as a trend of the moment that's reflective of current attitudes and aesthetics.

Embedded Values

Both articles subtly embed certain values associated with Barbiecore. They celebrate individuality, creativity, and the empowerment of embracing one's unique style. By spotlighting how individuals interpret and embody Barbiecore, the articles champion the idea that fashion is a form of self-expression and a way to assert one's identity.

However, there's also an inherent consumerist value that's embedded in the articles. As they discuss the popularity of Barbiecore, they indirectly promote the idea of purchasing items to fit the trend. The more attention the trend receives, the more likely it is to lead to increased sales and profits for fashion brands. This consumerist value is intricately tied to the commercial nature of the fashion industry.

Diverse Experiences

One of the fundamental principles of media literacy is recognizing that different people can experience the same media in diverse ways. Readers of these articles will likely have varying reactions to Barbiecore based on their personal backgrounds, cultural perspectives, and fashion preferences. Some might resonate with the nostalgia and find the trend empowering, as it allows them to connect with a beloved childhood icon and express themselves through fashion.

Conversely, others might perceive the trend differently. They might question whether Barbiecore perpetuates traditional gender norms due to its association with the iconic Barbie doll, known for its portrayal of femininity. Though today’s idea of Barbie and Barbiecore presents a more inclusive and empowering narrative; there are still critics who think that its just another “woke” trend. These diverse interpretations are important and we should engage in conversations that explore different viewpoints.

Profit and Power

In today's media landscape, it's evident that articles are often structured to engage readers and generate profit for media platforms. The choice of headlines, visuals, and language is carefully curated in both the articles from TIME and PEOPLE to capture attention and encourage clicks, which in turn increases ad revenue or website traffic.

As readers, it's important to be aware of how media messages are strategically designed to influence our perceptions. While the goal of these articles could be seen as to open a dialogue about Barbiecore, it is not just that, its also to maintain the financial viability of the platforms. This awareness prompts us to consume media critically, recognizing that the presentation of information could be influenced by underlying bias, motives and agendas.

. . .

By deconstructing the narratives, values, diverse experiences, and underlying profit motives of these articles, we enhance our media literacy skills. We become more adept at deciphering the complexities of media messages, developing a well-rounded understanding of trends like Barbiecore as presented in the articles, and engaging with content in a more informed and critical manner.

Wrapping It Up

In conclusion, exploring the articles about Barbiecore reminds us of the intricate interplay between fashion trends, media messages, creativity, values, and commercial interests. As fashion enthusiasts, it's essential to engage with media critically and appreciate the multifaceted nature of trends like Barbiecore. By critically analyzing and deconstructing the narratives presented in these articles we gain a richer understanding of how different sources can convey similar messages with distinct nuances. We enhance our ability to perceive the layers of meaning within the Barbiecore trend and develop a more informed perspective on the multidimensional world of fashion.

the last one(s) at least for now. I took a ton of selfies but these were the ones I decided were my fave. The others might surface one day as throwbacks or stories or something.

Yes I know how similar these look but I only know a few poses plus I really had to work both with and against the lighting cuz the sun set by the time I finished my face 😂

Blue contacts in cuz I haven’t worn them in a while and this lip look turned into like 3. First matte then uber glossy then I tapped the excess off and it looked like just regular lipstick (another reason pics from this day will return)
