I grew up playing with Barbie because I wasn't allowed to go out of the house when I was a little girl. She has been my friend and companion until I grew big enough to realize I ruined her hair from brushing it too frequently. I remember enjoying changing her outfits and giving her braids. Barbie was the doll of our generation.

How lucky are the kids these days though? Mattel, the creator of Barbie, has then since revolutionized the iconic doll as quick as women's rights came as a forefront and highlighted topic that is no longer taboo. These days, Barbie has materialized every girl's dream into their beautiful 'You Can Be Anything' Campaign.

Alongside Barbie's new identity is the most recent introduction of new doll versions of the most iconic women of modern history. We've seen how much it has been a privilege to have a Barbie version of you from our favorite celebs like Beyoncé, Cher, Ava DuVernay, and the gorgeous Elizabeth Taylor.

So for International Women's Month, Barbie launched their latest additions to their line of 'Shero' dolls. 

“As a brand that inspires the limitless potential in girls, Barbie will be honoring its largest line up of role models timed to International Women’s Day, because we know that you can’t be what you can’t see,” Lisa McKnight, the senior vice president and general manager of Barbie, said Tuesday in a press release. “Girls have always been able to play out different roles and careers with Barbie and we are thrilled to shine a light on real life role models to remind them that they can be anything.”
