The Barbie Dreamhouse Era (and Why Skipper Was the Real Main Character)

Some eras are subtle. And then there’s my Barbie Dreamhouse era. 🎀

Forget the dolls — I was obsessed with the web series. The plastic perfection, the chaotic one-liners, the way every episode felt like reality TV for people who own glitter. It was pure serotonin disguised as satire.

Everyone talks about Barbie and Raquelle (and fair, they were icons), but for me? It was always Skipper. The quietly sarcastic one, rolling her eyes while secretly loving the drama. The tech girl who somehow kept the Dreamhouse from literally catching fire. Basically, the unsung heroine of the entire series.

That show had no right to be as funny, clever, and meta as it was. And don’t even get me started on the theme song — once it’s in your head, it’s there forever. (“Come on, don’t be shy, just come inside the Dreamhouse!” 🎶)

Looking back, I think that era sums me up perfectly: sparkly, self-aware, slightly chaotic, and secretly thoughtful underneath all the pink. Because honestly? Life is better in the Dreamhouse — especially when you’re watching it with snacks and zero shame. 💅💖
