Title: Sites for modern Barbie identification
Post by: thecakeissisley on June 16, 2015, 11:30:13 AM: I'm trying to find and identify the Barbie doll that I had as a child by the way she looks, but I can't find any good reference sites, most of them are for identifying vintage Barbies or auction sites. I got that doll in 2000 (give or take a year) and I don't own her or even pictures of her anymore so I'd love to know what line she was from. Any help is appreciated :)

Sure!

She was blonde with blue eyes, and wore a long big lavender dress which had a layer of glittery mesh on the front. The dress also had short sleeves I think. Her shoes were lavender too. She didn't come with any accessories as far as I remember, except maybe possibly a tiara.

Hope that's accurate enough. I don't remember all the details, just that she looked like a princess :)

I love this site as I learned a lot from it.
This is how I've ID'd most of my Black Barbies/Christie types.
Well done on finding the identity of yours!
