Beautynomics – The Economics of Vanity » Blog Archive » MAC Cosmetics and Archie Comics Collaboration : MAC Archie’s Girls

I am totally loving the news of this new MAC Cosmetics‘ collaboration – the comics series that I have grown up with, loved from childhood until now. Before, I would cajole my mom to buy me Double Digest issues of Betty and Veronica, as double digest issues were more worth the money than the thinner-paged counterparts, and during this modern day and time, I find myself buying episodes of Archie Comics ( specifically Archie Marries Veronica/ Archie Marries Betty ) via iTunes.

There were some days that I wish I were Betty, and some days that I wish I were Veronica. Gosh, I can totally relate to both of them!

So, how about my two loves joining together for an awesome collaboration? This might not be the wildest collaboration, but I know in my heart, that my generation will think it is the dearest to our hearts! This is too close to my heart that I will be awaiting March 2013!!!

Are you?
