Alix Earleis a Barbie girl!
Just when she thought it would be hard to “top” her Cheshire Cat costume from her"Mad Forest" Halloween party, the social media star proved herself wrong with the help of her Miami Dolphins player boyfriend Braxton Berrios in a post shared onInstagram.
The couple transformed into a near-identical recreation of Barbie and Ken from the vintage Florida Vacation set that hit shelves in 1998. Earle slipped into a pink leopard one-piece swimsuit paired with metallic pink heels and accessorized with matching shades and earrings.
As for Berrios, his costume was minimal: teal swim trunks and a solid fake tan.

“The Ken to my Barbie 🩷” she captioned her post.
Earle revealed in a behind-the-scenes video onTikTokthat the photoshoot was shot in Miami a few weeks ago, prior toBraxton’s season-ending injury. The wide receivertore his ACLduring a game against the Cincinnati Colts on Oct. 20.
“I wanted it to look like we were in a box,” she says in the clip which shows Earle and Braxton posing in front of a yellow backdrop. “I actually had no idea how to pose for this,” she jokes of her attempt to look plastic.

Committing to the part is nothing new for theHot Messpodcast host, who went all-in on her Cheshire Cat look for herAlice in Wonderland-inspired Halloween party on Oct. 25. To transform into the fictional, famed feline, she wore head-to-toe body paint and prosthetics the whole night.
The social media star gavePEOPLE an inside lookat her “Mad Forest” Halloween bash, a star-studded, spooky soirée held at Keys Nightclub in Los Angeles. The invite-only event attracted A-listers including Nicholas Alexander Chavez, The Kid LAROI and Shay Mitchell.
Earle spoke with PEOPLE exclusively at the 2024 CFDA Awards three days later, admitting that she hadn’t been able to get all the paint off. “There’s pink in my ears still,” she said, adding, “It’s been quite the process to get that one off, so it might quite literally still be around next year.”
