Hey Dolls! Kendra Scott’s New Barbie Capsule Collection Is Out Now

ON THE HEELS of her eponymous’ brands 20th anniversary, Kendra Scott has teamed up with Barbie for a limited-edition capsule collection inspired by “fashion, friendship and being a force for good,” and benefiting Girls, Inc.


“Barbie x Kendra Scott draws from a desire to help women feel confident, powerful and capable of anything that we set our minds to,” said Scott in a statement. “Growing up, Barbie taught me that beauty comes in many forms, and most importantly, to pursue my passions.”

Arriving just in time for the holiday season, the collaboration includes two necklaces, two bracelets and two pairs of earrings. (They’re all pink, of course.)

The necklaces tout a double-sided design, while statement earrings and huggies provide fun pops of color to any outfits.

For every purchase of the collection’s Everlyne friendship bracelet, Kendra Scott is donating 20 percent of the proceeds to the Barbie Dream Gap Project, which will directly support the efforts of Girls Inc. to ensure that a new generation of girl leaders have the resources they need to reach their full potential, including curriculum, skills development and leadership opportunities.

“I’m so proud to partner together on a collection that celebrates both fashion and philanthropy so we can continue to inspire the next generation of girls to dream even bigger,” Scott says.

The limited-edition Barbie x Kendra Scott collection will be available at Kendra Scott retail stores and online. Prices range from $65-$198.

Leadership in Action: John Kuykendall Traded Newcaster Dream for Success in Luxury Retail

John Kuykendall, Showroom Manager, Sub-Zero, Wolf and Cove

How did you get to where you are today? Growing up I had envisioned myself as a news anchor, living in NY and enthusiastically saying into the camera “Good Morning America!”. To this day, I am still a news/political junkie. My mother owned fur salons so specialty retail, luxury retail was in my blood through the family business. Eventually, mom shuttered the stores and I was recruited to a large specialty retailer. Over the next 30 years, I was in commissioned sales on the sales floor, became a department manager, worked my way up to buyer and store manager. Although I never became a newscaster, I did live in NYC for a few years. But Texas is home and with aging grandparents, I felt the pull to come back to my roots. A headhunter approached me. I never envisioned myself in the high-end appliance market, but there are so many similarities. Clients want a memorable experience; whether shopping for diamonds and fur or remodeling their kitchen.
