Barbiecore is everywhere we look, and we are *loving* it. It seems the world is fully embracing Barbiemania in the run-up to the movie release this month, starring the legendary Margot Robbie, as the iconic doll. It's not just us that's loving this pink extravaganza, the celebs seem to be fully on board with it, too.
From Sophie Turner returning to the Barbie-approved blonde hair colour to Kim K's bubblegum blush, it seems we're all living in a Barbie World. The latest celeb to say "come on, Barbie, let's go party", is Shay Mitchell, and we have to say, it's possibly our favourite take on the Toys "R" Us icon so far.
The Pretty Little Liars actress took to Instagram to debut a Barbie transformation in late June, but she's just teased a second look, and we have no words:
Compared to the perfectly high ponytail (reminder below) that she previously debuted, these latest pictures show an alternative universe where Shay Mitchell is indeed, a blonde. We can't get over how different she looks with this long blonde hair transformation.
We're still not over the fact she paired this perfect 'do with a cutesy pink bow and pastel blue eyeshadow. Barbie would have *so* wanted it this way.
We're not going to get ahead of ourselves here, and put in a disclaimer that this is most definitely a wig, but here's hoping Shay has fully committed to this doll-like beauty transformation. She's a vision.
Everyone's clicking on...
It's also left some fans having to do a double take after confusing her with one celeb in particular. One guess as to who it is...
"I THOUGHT THIS WAS ARIANA GRANDE😭"
"I thought this was Ariana, had me doing a double take 😂"
"Okay ariana grande"
We can't not see it now.
We can thank her luggage brand, BÉIS, for this hair transformation. As the actress announced a collab with the doll herself launching on the 19th July. Barbie luggage? Just take our money, Shay.
