It's Barbie's World
A Tasteful Guide to Barbiecore Dreamhouse
Like it or not, we are living in a Barbie world. The most anticipated movie of 2023 has turned all heads (and tiptoes) to Barbiecore. With more than 100 brand partnerships, from clothes to beauty to home decor, it's safe to say we will be in Barbieland for a while. We gathered our favorite interiors to inspire you to create your own Dreamhouse.
What is Barbiecore?
From fashion to interior design, Barbiecore brings hot pink and a girly-girl vibe into living rooms, bathrooms, and kitchens. Although Barbie's Dreamhouse might have been all pink, you don't have to drench your space in one color to embrace the trend. Instead, add feminine silhouettes, subtle blush pinks, or break hyper-pink rooms with neutral gemstones in your hardware. It's all about creating a carefree environment.

The iconic Barbie pink couch is not the only way to incorporate #barbiecore into the living areas. You can mix pink hues through decorative pieces like pillows, furniture, art, and rugs (perfect timing to get that Barbie x Ruggable rug).

Come on, Barbie, let's go party! Add some Barbie flair to your home bar with pink glassware (another perfect time to get the Barbie x Dragon glassware), or by drenching your cabinets in hot pink.
