Spoilers ahead about the ending of Barbie (2023). If you don't want to be spoiled, turn back now!

At the end of Greta Gerwig's Barbie movie, Stereotypical Barbie (Margot Robbie) tells Barbie creator Ruth Handler (Rhea Perlman) that she doesn't feel like Barbie anymore. She decides to be human, and the final scene finds Barbie in the backseat of Gloria's (America Ferrera) car, wearing a tan blazer. Gloria, her husband (Ferrera's actual husband Ryan Piers Williams), and her daughter Sasha (Ariana Greenblatt) drop Barbie off and wish her luck. We see her step out of the car wearing pink Birkenstocks, and give her name as Barbara Handler, telling the receptionist: "I'm here to see my gynecologist."

That final line is one for the ages—but we're particularly enamored with Barbara's pink Birkenstocks, which represent a twist on Barbie's first journey into the real world. When Barbie first visits Weird Barbie (Kate McKinnon) to find out why her feet are now flat, Weird Barbie gives her the choice of a heel or a Birkenstock sandal—stay in Barbieland or venture to the real world. While Barbie tries to stay, she reluctantly concedes she needs to go to the real world—setting off a journey that brings her to California, and introduces her to Gloria.

The final pink Birkenstock sandals, a nod at the ones Weird Barbie first gives her, shows Barbie/Barbara making her own decision about being in the real world—but putting her own twist on them.

Instead of the tan Arizona sandals, she chooses blush pink.
