It’s a Barbie world — and we’re all living in it.

From 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15, the Barbie Truck Totally Throwback Malibu Tour is making a stop in the Duke City.

The truck makes stops around the United States where it sells exclusive retro-inspired merchandise. The tour is done to mark the 50th anniversary of the original Calfiornia girl — Malibu Barbie.

The truck will be parked at ABQ Uptown near California Pizza Kitchen, 2200 Louisiana Blvd. NE.

According to organizers, The Malibu Barbie truck will offer an array of ’70s-themed Malibu Barbie beach apparel and accessories, including:

♦ Barbie-logo embroidered denim jacket.
