I usually don’t stray from the topics of fashion or style & their related areas for this blog, but I’m going to make an exception today, because I read something yesterday that really upset me.
What it comes down to is that a Wiccan priest & chaplain, Patrick McCollum, has been trying for years to overturn [...]

A Moment of Your Time?
Interview with Lisa, the Sassy Minx!
Today I’ve got a special treat! Lisa is the mastermind behind The Sassy Minx – a “fierce and fabulous combination of words, pictures, and general awesomeness for women who kick-ass”. I think that’s a project I can get behind! Not only does Lisa write, but she’s also an entrepreneur – she’s a one-of-a-kind life coach [...]
January 29th, 2010Apocalypse Ladies: Dressing for the End of the World
(this is a guest post from the lovely Steff at Steff Metal – thanks Steff! Why don’t you stop by & check out her blog?)
[humanity is] a silly, ongoing, short-term memory machine that fails to learn from the past.

What’s going to happen is, very soon, we’re going to run out of petroleum, and [...]
Marvelous Monday!
When I was a little kid, I was absolutely fascinated with rocks and minerals. I still have a sizable collection stored in fabric bags (that, and tons of quartz rather scattered across the house). I found this on Flickr & thought it was gorgeous – apparently, it’s calcite under UV. It has a heart on [...]
January 25th, 2010How to Stop Worrying All the Damn Time
Wanna know a secret?
I have a tendency to get somewhat neurotic. And by “somewhat”, I mean spending hours unable to sleep because of worrying or feeling nauseous from anxiety. Which is, um, not fun! If you’ve experienced anything similar, you know that hearing things like “You should really stop worrying all the time”, or “Just [...]
Daily Outfit 1/16/2010
1/16/2010 (couldn’t think of a witty quote for today) – White moto jacket & Thakoon for Target top – Buffalo Exchange, ruffled skirt – Target, boots off eBay, belt & necklace are secondhand. Yeah, so it was REALLY bright outside, hence my fluorescent legs and my squinty face.
These boots are an eBay find from a while back, [...]
January 21st, 2010Annoucing…my secret project.
So the last few months I’ve been working on something, and I kept putting off launching it, or even talking about it to anyone except for a select few. Because, you know, they might tell me it was stupid! Or something. (My brain sometimes fails at logic when it comes to my projects, I won’t [...]
January 19th, 2010Marvelous Monday!
Goal Setting for Creatives. This totally makes me want The Creative Entrepreneur even more.
And a similar set of words but completely different article: Creative Ways to Meet Your Goals.
Why Having Fun is Great for Business.
Just a reminder: beauty standards do, in fact, change with the times.
This should be required reading for online purchases: How to [...]
Saturday Shoelust
Farylrobin shoes are supposed to be comfortable and I love the postapocalyptic (that’s how they look to me anyways – the mix of textures, chunky zipper, & bit of stitching, I think?) look.
Fun fact: I tried on a pair of shoes at Buffalo Exchange the other day because they reminded me of these shoes. And [...]
“I didn’t say he was crazy, Coraline. He’s drunk.”
1/10/10. Wrap thingie is from Buffalo Exchange, as previously mentioned, secondhand Fornarina boots, Alternative Apparel leggings, secondhand Tahari skirt, Target tank top, secondhand necklace. Matt said this outfit made me look like a superhero – something about the color scheme.
I absolutely love these boots. I think they’ll be very comfortable once broken in (unfortunately, I [...]
