Today we’d like to introduce you to Barbie Story.
Barbie born Tiffani Martinez, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
Fashion has always been my way of telling a story-whether through glamorous nights in Beverly Hills, curating the perfect game day looks for athletes’ wives, or elevating everyday elegance. As someone who dates an athlete, I have a firsthand perspective on the high-profile, stylish world of sports and luxury fashion.
Beyond my love for style, l’ve had the opportunity to model for top brands like Savage X Fenty and Fashion Nova, showcasing fashion that blends confidence, elegance, and edge. But my passion isn’t just in front of the camera-l’m also a salon suites owner, creating spaces where beauty and business thrive. As an inspiring model, I use my platform to encourage women to embrace their confidence, refine their style, and live unapologetically. My journey is about more than just looking good-it’s about empowering women to live elegantly, dress stylishly, and dream luxuriously. Whether I’m sharing styling tips, giving a behind-the-scenes look into fine dining, or breaking down game day fashion trends, my goal is to inspire confidence and sophistication.
Now, as I relaunch my fashion brand and expand my presence on Instagram, YouTube, and Twitch, I’m excited to bring my audience deeper into my world-sharing luxury styling, beauty insights, and the essence of Beverly Hills glam.
Join me on this journey, because elegance isn’t just a look-it’s a lifestyle.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The road hasn’t been smooth, but every challenge has shaped me into the woman I am today. As an Afro-Latina born and raised in Beverly Hills, I’ve often faced assumptions-people questioning how i came from a place others dream about, as if I didn’t belong in the 90210 lifestyle.
My love for fashion and beauty has always been at the core of who I am, but breaking into the industry beyond modeling came with its own struggles. I started as a model for brands like Savage X Fenty and Fashion Nova, but I wanted to be more than just a pretty face. I wanted to create. Fashion isn’t just about wearing luxury-it’s about storytelling, confidence, and elegance.
Stepping into the design world, l’ve worked to establish myself as a creator, crafting pieces that stand out while remaining timeless and classy. At times, people label me as “bougie” because I love the finer things in life, but for me, it’s about embracing luxury as a lifestyle, not just a price tag. Whether it’s fashion, beauty, or fine dining, I believe in living elegantly and unapologetically.
Balancing my entrepreneurial ventures-owning salon suites, relaunching my fashion brand on Instagram and expanding into YouTube and Twitch-has been a constant test of perseverance. But I refuse to let labels define me. Elegance, confidence, and success are not limited by background, but by the limits we refuse to accept.
Through it all, my mission remains the same: to empower women to live elegantly, dress stylishly, and dream luxuriously.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I’ve always believed that fashion and beauty are more than just aesthetics-they’re a form of storytelling, self-expression, and confidence. My work revolves around curating a luxurious lifestyle, where fashion, beauty, and fine dining come together seamlessly.
I specialize in luxury fashion, beauty, and styling, with a strong emphasis on game day fashion for my game day looks, Beverly Hills glamour, and high-end dining looks.
Many know me from my work as a model for brands like Savage X Fenty and Fashion Nova, but I’ve expanded beyond that to establish myself as a creator and entrepreneur. I own salon suites, relaunching my own fashion brand, and sharing my expertise on YouTube and Twitch. One of my proudest accomplishments is stepping out from just being the face of other brands to building my own. I’m creating fashion pieces that are timeless yet bold, embodying elegance with a modern twist. As an Afro-Latina born and raised in Beverly Hills, l’ve also had to challenge stereotypes and redefine what it means to live in 90210, proving that luxury isn’t about where you come from but how you carry yourself.
What sets me apart is my unapologetic love for fashion, beauty, and the finer things in life-paired with my mission to empower women. I want women to feel confident, stylish, and luxurious in their everyday lives, whether they’re attending a high-profile event or simply stepping out for brunch. My platforms reflect this, blending high fashion, elegance, and lifestyle content that inspires others to live beautifully.
At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to redefine luxury, inspire confidence, and bring a touch of glamour to every aspect of life.
Can you talk to us a bit about the role of luck?
I believe luck can open doors, but it’s hard work, resilience, and vision that truly determine success. There have been moments in my life where I’ve been in the right place at the right time-whether it was landing opportunities with brands like Savage X Fenty and Fashion Nova or growing up in Beverly Hills, a place many dream about. Some might call that luck, but the truth is, it’s what I did with those opportunities that mattered.
On the flip side, l’ve faced challenges that some would call bad luck-breaking into the fashion industry beyond modeling, proving that I’m more than just a pretty face, and navigating the expectations that come with being an Afro-Latina in 90210.
There were times when doors didn’t open, when I was underestimated, or when I had to fight harder to be taken seriously as a designer and entrepreneur. Ultimately, I don’t rely on luck. I create my own opportunities. Whether it’s building my own fashion brand, owning salon suites, or expanding into YouTube and Twitch, everything I have is because of my passion, persistence, and willingness to take risks.
Luck may spark a moment, but it’s what you do with it that defines your future. I choose to turn every challenge into an opportunity and every opportunity into something greater.
