Before starting to write this post, I wondered ¨hmm, Barbiecore is such a 2022 thing…is it worth making a Barbie aesthetic guide just to be in the hype of the movie? ¨ But then I thought: Of course, unquestionably, yes. And, honestly, regardless of the movie and the hot pink aesthetic massively taking over the fashion industry and Instagram last year, our girl Barbie is such a global pop icon, so charged with meaning and symbology that so many girls (and boys) identify with since childhood, that This super girly, pink and glamorous universe, definitely deserves its own timeless lifestyle guide.
So, if this is your first time here let me tell you that my aesthetic guides are all mostly about reminding women that they should never waste time waiting for the perfect moment to be who they want to be.
They are a friendly reminder to allow themselves to romanticize life, through the big or small things, – you can feel a spark of happiness with a glass of gorgeous rosé or with expensive luxury designer clothing, it will only depend on doing the proper thing to fulfill the mood you are in.
That being said, this post will guide you towards embracing the Barbieore aesthetic, when it feels right for you.
What is aesthetic and Barbiecore aesthetic?
In every single post I write about aesthetics, I like to make the same disclosure about what aesthetics means to me. The majority of fashion magazines describe aesthetics merely as fashion and pop trends. For me, the popularized trend, like the movie or Valentino hot pink collection in 2022 is just a consequence of a much bigger meaning.
Aesthetics is a creative way that the internet’s early adopters found to unite images that contain a very strong meaning, whether for being on our unconscious through fairy tales (such as fairies with the fairy aesthetic or mermaids with mermaidcore), or through big symbols of pops culture, like Barbie core.
Therefore, Barbiecore is not about looking at a non-inclusive skinny, unreal, blond Malibu Barbie and wanting to be physically like her. It is rather, about embracing all the powerful, dreamy symbology surrounding that Barbie universe.

It is about looking at the femininity and hot-vibrant-glamorous 80s vibes of neon pink, seeing that cool independent woman lifestyle represented by a doll who owned her own convertible car and a big house, and wanting to welcome that imagery into your lifestyle, regardless of weight, skin color, gender or body type.
Big visual, mythological, and pop characters o become popular aesthetics because they are universal symbols and survive time and space., a huge mass of people identify with them and want to embrace them.
So, that being said, aesthetics are not a trend, it is a visual shortcut to guide you toward your most true and authentic self.
