Here's a bit of memorabilia for Barbie fans who are now all grown up, with bigger bank accounts, yet with a continued fascination with the epitome of girly pop culture icons.

This [Barbie necklace](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-wheels-x-alex-and-ani) costs a small fortune, with prices getting up to $15,000. I could see this doing well in the Asian markets where customers flock to buy luxury [Hello Kitty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lanvin-en-bleu) items.

If you're in love with the necklace but don't have the budget, don't despair. The **[Barbie Rocks](http://rockandrollltd.com)** collection by Layna and Alan Friedman also has adorably feminine items that cost as little as $8.
