You don’t have to be a die-hard fan to know that in Barbie’s world, pink is the colour of the day every day.
The shade is inextricably tied to the world’s most famous doll, directing everything from her wardrobe to the colour of the walls in her Dreamhouse. But it doesn’t stop there, oh no: her appliances get a candy-coloured makeover too.
With love for all things Barbie approaching fever pitch ahead of Greta Gerwig’s live action film release on July 21, more of us are taking a leaf out of Barbie’s rosy playbook and thinking pink.
While living in the Dreamhouse is the stuff of fantasies, there are ways to inject the aesthetic into your own home. Many pieces on the movie set were made specifically for the film, but eagle-eyed viewers will notice that some household names are in the mix too.
For instance, in the video below, a candy pink Smeg toaster can be spotted on the kitchen worktop, ready for making Barbie’s breakfast toast when she fancies it.
If you want to join in by choosing to replace tired appliances with a fun pink version, the options are looking decidedly rosy.
From Smeg kitchen appliances to high-tech TVs and digital DAB radios, there’s a huge swathe of electricals that come with a dopamine-spiking helping of fun.
We’ve rounded up the best of them into an edit below, making them easier to shop.

For your money, you’ll get all the Sky channels on-demand, plus a host of other streaming services. The 4K Quantum Dot display supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision, but you won’t get a 120Hz refresh rate through the HDMIs, of which there are three.
If you like what Sky’s offering, and don’t mind the monthly subscription, then this is a good choice. You literally need nothing else but a decent internet connection.
