my top five faux fur items for fall (say that five times fast!)
Wednesday, October 27th, 2010Normally, when temperatures drop, so does my spirit.

However, there is one undeniably awesome thing about fall that all fashionistas can agree on: The fashion. [...]

Where’s The Beauty In Burning Out?
Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010I grew up on stories of the tortured artist. As soon as I could make my own reading choices, I found myself gravitating toward writers who lived on the edge.
