Mir, her daughter M & M’s cousin

A big thanks to the Yummy Mummy Club, as this past weekend, my daughter Milena and I walked the “Pink Carpet” at the movie premier of Barbie: A Fashion Fairytale.  M was esctatic about the show, and I was ecstatic about meeting the lovely ladies of the deliciously cheeky Yummy Mummy Club - created by mom-preneur Erica Ehm of MuchMusic VJ fame.  M was in for a treat, who enjoyed the afternoon with her cousins; and Barbie, herself, even made an appearance, sending all the girls wild with excitement. The event was a ton of fun for all the little Barbies at heart…and for us mommies who love living in a Barbie world.

The night before the event, the question remained…what was I to wear?  Since Barbie is hip and trendy, we had to make sure we arrived in style and very Barbie-licious. M wore her princess pink dress with the Stella & Dot Allie necklace and white Gracie flower in her hair. So adorable!  I couldn’t resist adding a touch of pink to my outfit, so I wore one of my favourite Stella & Dot signature necklaces: The Colette – totally rocker chic with mixed chains and metals, softened with pearls and a gorgeous blush coloured ribbon.  It’s a versatile piece that allows you to tie it up tight like a choker, have a bow to the side, or tied long – like how I wore it with my black tunic and skinny jeans.

And can I just say this: you HAVE to check out Barbie on the big screen – she does a fantastic job of layering with different lengths of sparkling chains, which is a perfect match to a basic black tee canvas.  M even mentioned that her favourite part of the movie was the clothing – “Barbie sure is fashionable”!  I don’t recall having this much fun as a child, and the Pink Carpet event was definitely a highlight in our books.
