Barbie Forteza is not one to make impulsive purchases, especially designer items that usually cost an arm and a leg. In fact, the 26-year-old Maria Clara at Ibarra star once opened up about previously wanting a Dior bracelet that she just couldn't get herself to buy given its hefty price tag. "Sabi ko, 'Parang maraming artistang naka-ganito'. Tapos tinignan ko yung presyo, e isang buwang grocery ko na, e," she candidly shared in an interview. Her boyfriend Jak Roberto ended up giving that bracelet to her as a present, which makes for a cute story! But considering how smart and practical Barbie is when it comes to managing finances, you can count on her shopping choices to be worthy investments whenever she does decide to treat herself to a designer purchase every once in a while. Case in point: her new go-to sneakers, which she wore on a trip to Canada!

For her airport look en route to Canada with fellow GMA artists David Licauco, Julie Anne San Jose, and Rayver Cruz, Barbie was sporting her fave designer shoes: Dior's B23 high-top sneakers in white and black Dior Oblique canvas.
It seems like Barbie has had the pair since November of 2023.
