Ever since I was a little girl, I have always been fascinated with everything Barbie ®. From dolls, to dresses, to tiaras I always loved to be adorned with the latest Barbie apparel.
Yet, as I grew older, Barbie apparel and accessories have seemed to become less available and in style for women my age. Of course, there are still the classic Barbie dolls available, which I love to collect, but there wasn’t anything readily available to brighten up my wardrobe the way that Barbie did.
Almost into my mid twenties, I still longed for the Barbie style to come back into fashion, and thanks to Tarina Tarantino ™, it has!

Founded in 1995 by Tarina Tarantino and Alfonso Campos, the Tarina Tarantino jewelry line has breathed life into traditional jewelry design. Looking to make things sparkle in her own way, Tarina, along with then boyfriend and now husband Alfonso, created jewelry that was fun, beautiful, and expressed their creativity.
Starting off in small boutiques, Tarina Tarantino now has her own boutiques in California, New York, and even Italy where her line has flourished.
With the recent creation of her Barbie-inspired jewelry line that includes bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and tiaras that are bejeweled with Barbie’s timeless image, Tarina has won a place in my designer must-have list with her Barbie Cameo Charm Bracelet. Created in what Tarina calls her “sparkle factory,” the jewelry is an original creation that brings back the glamour that Barbie embodies. Ornamented with crystals, beads, radiant colors, and creative designs, Tarina’s jewelry will be sure to catch your eye.
Providing me with a welcomed feel of nostalgia, Tarina Tarantino Barbie jewelry offers women a chance to play dress up in a sophisticated, fashionable manner.

Over 10 years later, Tarina Tarantino jewelry has become a sensation amongst celebrities like Hillary Duff, Cameron Diaz, and the average women like myself. Now encompassing handbags, hairclips, and belts for everyday, a bridal collection, Pink Head designs (“Hello Kitty” inspired), and much more, Tarina Tarantino’s success as a designer is definite.
With the recent launch of Tarina’s personal collector Barbie doll modeled after herself, and even sporting her signature fuchsia hair, I am sure we can look forward to more glitzy and glamorous jewelry designs by Tarina to help us all feel a bit more beautiful, just like Barbie.
Get your collector Tarina Barbie Doll today before they sell out, and check out her wonderful Barbie jewelry that will leave you with that whimsical feeling you had when you were a child!

Ellie, they are worth about $500 brand new. I don’t know where you could sell it.
I’m trying to buy a Barbie necklace but the official website has very expensive postage.
