Marvelous Monday!

Apparently, giveaways involving Winona in some way are my lucky charm, because last week I won a copy of her book from lovely lady Annie Spandex! Yay! Thanks to both of you! I also wanted to thank Alicia and Sheena who gave me blogger awards…the resulting post has been sitting in my drafts for about…

A Day of Thanks

via Nathalie Booth It’s definitely not a holiday with the most savory of origins, (it’s funny how they always leave the genocide out in the tv specials and kindergarten storybooks, hmm?)  but I think that sometimes we all need a reminder of how lucky we are and how grateful we should be. That’s how I…

How to Fix Burnout & Get Back on Track

We’ve all been there: burned out, frustrated, staring at the screen and willing inspiration to come to us.

That doesn’t change the fact that sometimes, burnout sneaks up on you before you even realize…

Interview with Kim of Cupcakes and Mace!

Hopefully, you’re all familiar with Cupcakes and Mace – I don’t know which is better, the lovely jewelry or the blog! I’d like to start doing more interviews for the site, and Kim was the first person I thought of to email. We talked about business, style, and cats! Curious, aren’t you? Well, go on,…

Marvelous Monday!

via Rossina Bossio First off, go check out my guest post at Mischief, My Dear! The topic: hats. You know you’re excited. Birdiee wrote a book! The foreword, anyways. One of the cuter reconstructions I’ve seen on Outsapop lately: ugly leather jacket to capelet. Sarah Von writes yet another fabulous post: Who I Am vs….

Saturday Shoe Lust

These might be borderline tacky. I don’t know, and I don’t care. They are black and glossy and sparkly, and I want them. (I think I might be channeling Martin.)
