MY LAST TWO BARBIE MERCH PIECES, I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS, WAS ANOTHER BARBIE-PINK HOODIE AND A BLACK TEE, WITH BARBIE-PINK LOGO, WRITTEN IN GRAFFITI. THE TEE IS DEFININTELY, MY FAVORITE OF THE BARBIE MERCH, I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS 2O24 BECAUSE IT MATCHES MY GLASSES AND NAILS PERFECTLY.
HERE IS MY THIRD BARBIE-PINK MERCH I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS. I HAVE A BARBIE-PINK LOGO GLITTER SWEATSHIRT PAIRED WITH THE SECOND PAIR OF JOGGERS; I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS. I PAIRED THEM WITH LIGHT BARBIE-PINK KNEE-HIGH SOCKS AND BARBIE PINK UGGS.
HERE IS MORE BARBIE MERCH THAT I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS. IN THE FIRST PHOTO I HAVE A BARBIE MERCH LOGO ZIP UP HOODIE WITH LIGHT PINK JOGGERS AND BARBIE HOT-PINK KNEE-HIGH SOCKS THAT I PAIRED WITH PINK UGG BOOTS, THAT I ALSO GOT FOR CHRISTMAS. I CAN’T WAIT TO ACTUALLY WEAR ALL OF MY BARBIE MERCH.
SO, THIS POST IS SO WEEKS OVERDUE. SEEING AS THOUGH, I GOT THIS BARBIE MERCH FOR CHRISTMAS AND WAS TOO BUSY TO POST IT. SO HERE WE GO. FOR CHRISTMAS I HAVE PICTURED A BARBIE LOGO MERCH SWEATER THAT I PAIRED WITH PINK JOGGERS AND PINK AND WHITE GINGHAM SOCKS PAIRED WITH BARBIE-PINK UGGS.
ONE THING ABOUT ME, I’M SURE OF, IS MY LOVE FOR PINK. AND MY HATE FOR PURPLE. I HATE THE COLOR PURPLE. I’VE ALWAYS HAVE. THE ONLY SHADES OF PURPLE, THAT I LIKE, THAT I CONSIDER, PINK-PIGMENTED BLUES, AS PLUTUVAH IS LAVENDER AND LILAC. SO, WHEN I CAME ACROSS, FLIPPING THROUGH SWATCHES, AT THE NAIL SALON, THIS PARTICULAR, SHADE OF PINK, BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION, AND EAGERNESS, TO TRY IT. I KNEW I HAD A NEW SHADE, OF BARBIE-PINK AND BARBIE-LAVENDER, THAT I BECAME OBSESSED WITH.
I LIKE THE TONES OF LAVENDER, AND LILAC, THAT YOU CAN SEE THROUGH DIFFERENT ANGLES, AND THE DIFFERENT SHADES, OF PINKURPULAH, IS THE NAME, I CALL THIS COLOR AND PLUTUVAH. BECAUSE IT’S AS CLOSE ENOUGH, FOR ME TO HAVE A REASON, TO EVEN LIKE PURPLE.
I LIKE THAT THIS COLOR. NOT ONLY MAKES ME THINK, OF BARBIE. BUT MAKES ME THINK, OF EVERY SUGARY, PASTRY, AND SWEETS OF CANDY. THAT IS THIS COLOR, INFUSES OF RADIATING, LIKE CUPCAKE FROSTING. I LIKE THAT THIS PINK, IT COMBINES THE BEST HUES, OF LAVENDER, AND LILAC, TOGETHER WITH PINK. TO WHERE IT CAN BE, CLASSIFIED AS ARE YOU READY FOR THIS: BARBIE-PURPLE. THAT WAS HARD, FOR ME TO SAY LOL. BARBIE PINKURPULAH. BARBIE-LAVENDER. LOVE THIS COLOR, SO MUCH. I LIKE THAT IT COMBINES, ALL THE SHADES OF EVERY PINK, I LIKE, FOR A DYNAMIC DUO, WITH THE BEST, OF THE SOFTER PASTEL, OF PURPLE.
TARA AND YESHUA 101: LET GOD’S WORDS, BE THE WORDS, THAT DEFINE YOU AND OVERRULE YOUR IDOLS. ALLOW YESHUA AND ALLAH TO BREATHE LIFE INTO YOU.
MY JEWISH FATHER YESHUA, (JESUS) IS THE REASON, WHY I AM NO LONGER ASHAMED, OF MY HAIR. AND WHY I ENJOY CARING FOR MY TEXTURED, GRADE OF HAIR. WHAT LITTLE I REMEMBER, OF MY CHILDHOOD, MY HAIR WAS ALWAYS AN EMBARRASSING, ATTRIBUTE, WITHIN THE BLACK COMMUNITY, AND MY FAMILY, BECAUSE IS WASN’T CONSIDERED, IN MY MOTHER’S WORDS: GOOD GRADE OF HAIR, MANAGABLE, THE RIGHT TYPE OF HAIR, THAT SHOULD BE PERMED, AND NOT NATURAL, LIKE COUSINS, AND MY MOTHER, AND AUNT, WHO ARE MIXED WITH NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE.
MY DAD IS THE ONE, WHO TOLD ME ENOUGH, OF HIDING MY HAIR, IN TWISTS AND BRAIDS, AND CHEMICALLY PROCESSING MY HAIR. THAT IS WAS TIME FOR ME, TO FACE THE UGLY TRUTH, THIS BEING THE SECOND TIME I WENT NATURAL. BUT THE TRUTH, OF IT ALL, THAT MY HAIR, MY NOT BE ACCEPTED, OR CONSIDERED “GOOD HAIR”, “BEAUTIFUL HAIR”, BUT IT WAS TIME TO LOVE IT ANYWAY, AND CARE FOR IT, WITH PRIDE AND COMPASSION.
SO, ALL BLESSINGS, TO THE HIGHEST ALLAH, GOD WHO IS MY FATHER’S FATHER. I NOW ENJLOY MY NIGHTIME HAIR ROUTINE. AND I DONT ALLOW MYSELF TO THINK, OF WHAT OTHERS WITHIN A CERTAIN RACE, OF ETHNICITIES, THINK OF MY HAIR, OR SAY ABOUT IT. BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY, MY DAD BREATHED LIFE INTO ME AGAIN, TO LOVE IT, AND CARE FOR IT, LIKE I DO FASHION, AND TAKE PRIDE IN HOW I DRESSED IN JR. HIGH, AND HIGHSCHOOL. AND HE USES TERMS, WHEN DESCRIBING MY HAIR AS PRETTY, SOFT, THICK AND FINE. AND AS LONG AS GOD, HAS AN OPINION OF MY HAIR, IT OVERRULES EVERYONE ELSES. TARA 101: THINK ABOUT WHAT GOD SAYS ALLAH, YESHUA, JESUS, NEXT TIME YOU WANT TO BEAT YOURSELF DOWN, LADIES, AND GENTLEMEN.
TARA 101: HERE ARE THEIR PICTURES OF CERTAIN PINKS, I ONLY ALLOW MYSELF TO WEAR. I BELIEVE THERE ARE SEVEN SHADES OF BARBIE PINK RANGING TO THE HOTTEST AND BRIGHTEST TO THE MORE PIGMENTED AND LIGHTER, AND CREAMY-PIGMENTED BALLERINA BARBIE-PINKS. I AM VERY PICKY WHEN IT COMES TO PICKING OUT PINKS, AT THE NAIL SALONS. IF ITS NOT BRIGHT AGAINST MY DARK SKIN ITS NOT THE RIGHT PINK. IT HAS TO BE A PINK THAT I CAN LITERALLY TAKE MY IMAGINATION TO WHEN I USED TO PLAY WITH BARBIE DOLLS AS A CHILD. A PINK THATS SO PRETTY THAT I’M DRAWN TO WHERE I’M CONSTANTLY LOOKING AT MY NAILS, SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, NOW THAT’S A BARBIE-PINK.
ONE ACCESSORY, I LOVE MORE THAN ANYTHING, BESIDES HEADWRAPS, AND HIJABS, AND TURBANS, WOULD BE MY, BRIGHT BARBIE PINK FRAMES. AS YOU CAN SEE, BY THESE PICTURES, IM IN LOVE, WITH THESE GLASSES. THEY ARE NERDY QUIRKY, FUN, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, VERY FASHION TRENDY. IT BENEFITS ME, BECAUSE, I HAVE MORE PINK HEADWRAPS, THAT GO WITH THESE GLASSES, MORE THAN ANY, OF MY OTHER PINK GLASSES. I THINK, PEOPLE GET CAUGHT UP, THINKING THAT BLACK FRAMES, ARE AS TRENDY, AS GLASSES CAN GET, BECAUSE THEY GO WITH EVERYTHING. AS I’VE HEARD PEOPLE SAY. PEOPLE ARE OFTEN AFRAID, TO TRY A FRAME, WITH A BOLD COLOR, BECAUSE THEY THINK, IT WON’T GO WITH EVERYTHING, THEY WEAR, WHEN ACTUALLY, ITS JUST THE POP, OF COLOR, THAT THEY NEED. OR THEY THINK FRAMES, SHOULD BE KEPT SIMPLE, RATHER THAN WITH COLOR, LIKE CHILD GLASSES. AND THAT IS NOT TRUE, SOMETIMES YOU NEED FRAMES, WITH THAT POP OF COLOR. AND MAYBE IF PEOPLE, SEEN THAT GLASSES, ARE A FASHION ACCESSORY, A NECESSITY NOT A BEAUTY PUNISHMENT, THE WOULD HAVE MORE, FUN PLAYING, WITH THE BRIGHT COLORS, OF ADULT FRAME WHILE STILL LOOKING MATURE. THESE GLASSES, REMIND ME OF EVERYTHING PINK, THAT I LOVE. WHEN I WEAR THEM, THEY MAKE ME FEEL HAPPY, AS WELL AS TRENDY, FROM THE COMPLIMENTS, I RECIEVE FROM THEM. IT GIVES ME A FLASHBACK, OF MY VERY FIRST PAIR, OF GLASSES, AS A BABY BEING PINK. IT REMINDS ME, THAT I WILL ALWAYS BE THE SAME PERSON, AND EVERYTHING THAT EMBODIES MYSELF, WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, REPRESENTS ME NOW. SO IT FEELS GOOD, TO HAVE THESE FRAMES. THAT BRIGHTEN UP ANY DAY.
I OWN MANY BLUE GLASSES, BUT IF I HAD TO CHOOSE, ONE PAIR, OUT OF ALL OF THEM, THAT I FEEL REPRESENTS MY PERSONALITY, AND REPRESENTS, THE FAVORITE COLOR, AND PAIR, OF MY FATHER, IT WOULD BE, MY DESTINED FOR GREATNESS, CATEYE FRAMES. THESE BABIES, MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE, YOU ARE NOT WEARING GLASSES, BECAUSE OF THE LIGHT WEIGHT.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THERE SO INCREDIBLY STURDY, WHICH IS SURPRISING, BECAUSE BY THE LOOKS, OF IT THE SKINNY LEGS, OF THE GLASSES, YOU WOULDN’T EXPECT IT, TO FIT LIKE THAT. ANOTHER COOL THING, ABOUT MY FATHER’S DESTINED FOR GREATENESS FRAMES, IS THAT THE CATEYE DESIGN, OF THE GLASSES, ARE SO DRAMATIC IN ITS ENTIRETY.
IT REMINDS ME OF ALADDIN, PRINCESS JASMINE, SHAPED EYES ACCEPT THEIR FRAMES. ITS LIKE WEARING, A VERY DETAILED, BOLD EYELINER, FOR THE WING-TIPPED CATEYE MAKEUP TREND. FOR SOME REASON, SO ITS LIKE YOU WEAR, THESE DETAILED, TRENDY, STRUCTURED, TEARDROP CATEYE GLASSES, AND IT MAKES YOU FEEL, LIKE A MILLION BUCKS. IT MAKES YOU FEEL, LIKE YOU’RE WEARING SOMETHING, THAT DEMANDS ATTENTION. AND WITH THESE FRAMES, ATTENTION IS WHAT IS GETS. SO, I LOVE THESE GLASSES, I FEEL LIKE IM CHANNELING, MY INNER DISNEY PRINCESS AND REPRSENTING, MY FATHER’S FAVORITE COLOR. THAT’S A WIN, FOR ME I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOU… LOL KIDDING! ITS A WIN! FOR YOU TOO!
