A blonde law student who spent thousands of pounds on transforming herself into a real-life Barbie has defied bullies who branded her an 'airhead' by getting a second degree.
Charlotte Poole, 22, is such a huge fan of the iconic doll that she dyes her hair platinum blonde, wears girly clothes like her idol and has even paid for pneumatic 34F breast implants.
But Charlotte is no bimbo - she has just obtained a first-class Masters - and her boyfriend says he loves her for her brains.
The newly qualified marketing manager, from Leicestershire, began dressing like Barbie when she was 15, after watching stars including Melinda Messenger and Pamela Anderson on TV.
Feeling sensitive about her looks, she wore mini-skirts and bright lipstick to give her confidence.
But her make-up and clothing didn't stop her from getting the grades she needed to go to Nottingham University to study Law and Psychology.
'I loved Barbie dolls and I loved the Barbie Doll look after watching Melinda Messenger and Pamela Anderson on TV,' she said.
'I worried about the way I looked, so I started wearing make-up and dressing up. I couldn't even go to the corner shop without wearing full make-up and it just went on from there.
'Now I just want to look good for me and I love nothing more than big smokey make-up when I go out.
'I also have bright pink lips for the Barbie look, or red for a more rock chick look.'
Now, she says, she simply finds it amusing when she is labelled 'stupid' or a 'slag' on nights out.
'People are pretty surprised when they find out that I have a first class Masters degree,' she added. 'I don't make a point in telling people, but if they find out it's so funny to see their reaction.
'If I'm out with a corset on, I will get attention from people saying horrible things to me as you would expect - saying I'm stupid, a slag, etc - but because I know I'm not, it makes me laugh.
'I have had girls say that they hate me because of the way that I look and call me easy, but just because I look this way doesn't make me an idiot.
'When I see a girl look me up and down and think I must be stupid, I quite like it, because I know I can prove them wrong.'

The 22-year-old bought her breast implants within months of starting university. Despite enjoying nights out as her doll-like alter-ego, Charlotte Elizabeth, she still managed to get a 2:2 in law, followed by a distinction in her fashion marketing Masters.
'For me it's fun being Charlotte Elizabeth,' she said. 'But I do know for the majority of the time it is totally inappropriate to dress that way so I save it only for certain occasions.
'When I have exams, Charlotte Elizabeth goes away. There is a time and a place to be glamorous. Education always comes first.
'I always make sure I go to job interviews or to work with my hair up, with minimal make-up and not looking like Pamela Anderson.
'Despite my look, I take my work very seriously. I would love to get a nose job, veneers, maybe lip injections and Botox when I get a few years older - but for now I am trying my best to tone down the Barbie within now I have my new job.'

Charlotte Poole, 22, is a quiet, shy, introverted homebody. She likes reading (she's halfway through Oscar Wilde's The Picture Of Dorian Gray), watching television (documentaries, not soaps or The Only Way Is Essex, thank you very much), going to the gym, obsessing over anything Japanese and following current affairs online ('People moan all the time, but David Cameron seems like a genuinely nice person').
She wears hoodies and jeans, 'onesies' and fluffy pink slippers and likes hanging out with her two younger brothers, Ryan and Callum.
She describes herself as a vegetarian, an atheist and has 12 GCSEs, three A-levels, a law degree, a first class masters in fashion marketing, a good job working as social media coordinator for a fashion company and is planning a PhD.
