Tricky Nicki

So, what's a girl to do when in need of a last-minute Halloween costume that must be created from things she already owns? Well, if "things she already owns" include a hot pink crinoline and a purple wig (don't ask), I think we all know what's next

Not Quite A Schoolgirl

It's been a "few" years since I could credibly claim even attending any sort of school, let alone wearing a uniform. As much as I've always loved clothes, I would've killed for a Gossip Girl-style uniform back in junior high and high school--and sometimes I still like to pretend.Colin Stuart blazer; thrifted blouse, skirt, and bootsAlso, there's a Jenni Kayne pop-up shop at The Wardrobe starting today, with a portion

Halloween Costume Help!

So, the Best Holiday Ever is coming this weekend, and I still have no idea what or who I want to be. I swear I had plenty of ideas back in June--what happened to them?For inspiration, I looked at some of my costumes from years past:I MIGHT take this whole costume thing too seriously sometimes

Tumblr Tuesday: Cookie Art and The Casa Sutra

I've started randomly striking this pose in various public spaces; A cameo made from an Oreo cookie is the perfect marriage of art and, well, cookies; Yet another dude I want to dress like, bag and all; Chairs with no shame unabashedly assume casa sutra positions in public; A dressing area with a working tub and gothic chandelier is a dressing area I want to be in; These are the perfect recycled jack o' lanterns,

I took a picture of Ashlee taking pictures of Marsha. How meta is that?Photographers in the pitDesigns by Marlene Thomas, Melissa Tabor, and Cincinnati's own Amy KirchenOf course, being fashion bloggers, we took outfit pictures, enjoyed cocktails and wine, and stuffed ourselves with Mickey

Cincinnati Style Bloggers

Ask T: What to Wear to Speak to Beauty Editors

Time for me to dole out semi-unsolicited style advice again! Yay? My homies at A-Line passed along this tweet from @kellydobos : Hey @ALineMagCincy I have to speak in front of major magazine beauty editors in NYC this month, what should i wear? Any tips on styling? Ooh, that sounds like a fun combination of awesome cosmopolitan adventure (magazine beauty editors! NYC!) + nerve-racking responsibility (public speaking, outfit stress). Let's see

Tumblr Tuesday: Statement Clothes and Kitten Heels

I love when people let their clothes speak for them; Who knew a pixelated picture of Old Abe would make such intriguing art?; The simplicity of this word-within-a-word type treatment makes me curiously happy; I'm not sure if it would be harder or easier to solve a braille-based Rubik's Cube; As a bona fide Cat Lady, I'm really feeling this literal version of a kitten heel; There's no denying the amount of creative brilliance it
