Feminismz










Two posts in two days? I'm impressed with myself! At the start of the year, I was blogging almost everyday. Recently I've had to cut back (a lot) due to work. I have missed being able to get dressed up and let out my creative side. My work definitely stimulates my creativity, but over the last year I have enjoyed using my own wardrobe and body as a means of expression in a way that I never have before. As one of my muses, Madeline Pendleton, explains the photos I take are never about physical beauty. Beauty is an ideal dictated onto bodies by heteropatriarchal empire, and I consciously work to go against problematic beauty narratives. At a fundamental level, blogging is about my love for clothes. With every look I want to challenge myself artistically, create a story, and find new ways to wear what I own. I truly seek to have fun with fashion, and empower others to be passionate about what they wear.

Sometimes you don't have to wear anything crazy to have an avant garde or outlandish look. Thankfully my bright blue lipstick from Lime Cime always does the trick!

Weekender






Weekends are always crazy for me. I go back and forth between school in Santa Cruz and home in San Francisco each week. Normally I would stay in Santa Cruz until I graduate in June, but my Dad lives abroad in Thailand and will be back in the states for a few weeks. I need to maximize my time with him before he leaves for another year. You could say that the back and forth keeps Adrienne and I on our style  game too. We love our weekend photo shoots!
