Sophisticated Comics
If there’s one thing that’s a bit tragic about the winter season, it’s that the cold weather makes it so hard to wear any of my geeky tees/tops/dresses! Sure, a T-shirt can be worn under lot of pieces, but that can get pretty redundant pretty fast. Instead of a typical jeans and t-shirt look, I decided to wear my Marvel comic dress as a top underneath a fitted wool skirt. Hopefully I can bring a bit of unexpected fun to…

Black Friday Shopping Haul 2013
I admit I did a lot of shopping over Black Friday weekend, but honestly I didn’t realize how much until I started receiving all of my packages last week. My excitement was mixed with guilt and then thoughts that I should really make some returns or clean out my closet a bit more.

When people ask me about my blog, I always tell them that blogging is a “labor of love”. It’s a lot of work, little return, and you just have to do it because you love it. But once in a while, something cool happens. I’ve been a fan of Scott Campbell’s (aka Scott C’s) work for many years now and was recently given the chance to do an interview with him! I couldn’t believe my online ears and today, I’m…

One More Pumpkin…
Halloween may have come and gone, but I wanted to take one last chance to post some pics a la Instagram. This year, I carved a record number of pumpkin (9 total!) and I hope that I don’t have to beat that number anytime soon. Since five of them were for a commission project, I was a bit sad I didn’t have any of my own so I decided to just do one more. One more led to another 3 and I…
