As one of the few who were unable to take advantage of the Barbie X MAC collaboration, I was super excited when I learned Stila was the next Barbie beauty collaborator.  I enjoy Stila's classic takes in contrast to MAC's more adventurous outlook, and I cannot wait until the products launch and we get to see them live in the Barbie fashion show.  Here are more details on the collection:

“Stila is so honored and thrilled to be the official prestige makeup sponsor for Barbie in 2009. The partnership between Barbie and Stila is ideal as both brands represent the perfect blend of sophistication, fun and innovation. I am so pleased that Stila will be such an integral part of Barbie’s special year.”

In February, the collaboration kicks off with limited edition Barbie™ Loves Stila offerings that will launch just in time for Barbie’s anniversary celebrations. The four Barbie™ Loves Stila beauty cans will be available exclusively at Sephora’s 5th Avenue store in New York, international Sephora locations, and at Sephora.com. Finally, Stila will help celebrate Barbie™ doll’s first-ever runway show, held at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in February, as the show’s backstage beauty makeup sponsor.
