The Skirt is Greener…
It’s easy to get caught up in comparing yourself to others and that’s definitely one thing I’ve always struggled with. Sometimes doing so is motivating, but at the same time, it can also be discouraging as it might just end up making you feel like you will never be as successful/rich/pretty/etc. as others. Because of this realization, I’m constantly trying to make sure I focus on doing what I like and what I’m passionate about, rather than doing things only…

Cameo Appearance
Usually when I put together an outfit, jewelry is the thing I put on once I figure out what I’m wearing. But today, it was the complete opposite as I searched for something to wear with this amazing Princess Leia necklace. As I tried to look for something a little more “proper”, I ended up going with this peter pan collared dress to complete the look. I’m definitely a big fan of peter pan collars – and mixed with some…

Animal Instincts
When I was growing up, it was extremely common to see people wearing real fur. Yes, there were still protests and random “red paint” incidences in the news, but it definitely was not as frowned upon as it is today. As an animal lover, I’ve never been an advocate of wearing real fur. And on top of that, having had 3 pet rabbits when I was a kid, I could never imagine myself wearing something that might be my pet!…

A Visit to Loakal
I recently stumbled upon one of the coolest stores in the Bay Area. Imagine all the cute hand made things that you might see on etsy, plus a few geekier things you might come across at a con, add in an art gallery, a little bit of Star Wars, unique housewares, and a wall of graphic T-shirts and you have the Loakal store in Oakland, California. Not only is much of their stuff hand made, but knowing that you’re buying…
