Tokidoki’s Controversial Tattooed Barbie

Leave it to the Italian designed, Japanese inspired brand Tokidoki to creat the world’s first tattooed Barbie. Created in a limited edition of only 5000, these sold out within days and are now fetching over $500 on ebay. Designed by Simone Legno, an artist from Rome, named his company Tokidoki, which translates to “sometimes” in Japanese. His inspiration came from his love of Japan from the happy face of Shibuya to the magic and silence of Kyoto. To him, sometimes is defined by the moments we wait for to change our destiny, and the home ande hidden energy everyone has inside of us to dream of something positive and create magic. We love his cheerful and charasmatic characters, including Karl Lagerfeld, (the Kaiser himself) that are like the mischevious and fashionable counterparts to Hello Kitty. Here are some highlights from his colorful Spring makeup selection with Sephora to his new Fall Collection hitting stores and online in July.
