I've been working with a group of friends to put together a monthly pop-up shop filled with crafty objets d’art , fashion, accessories, home decor, and vintage clothing by a hand-picked selection of local sellers. Set to open at 1301 Main Street on March 25th, we'll be right in the heart of all the Final Friday action! We wanted a fun, vibrant name, and settled on PopShop as a take on the pop-up concept, and
I can't pinpoint the EXACT moment I decided I wanted to dress like a mid-century schoolmarm, but, well, here we are. This skirt caught my eye specifically because of its Little House-meets-June Cleaver vibe. I love the ribbon and button detailing on the waist! And it TWIRLS! Who doesn't like twirling, I ask you? WHO(m)?!? I was having so much fun, I (foolishly) asked Friendboy what he thought: "You look
I'm not sure if Michelle Harper's outfit is a dress over harem pants or a jumpsuit, but whatever it is, I NEED IT; The Grand Taxonomy of Rap Names will either increase your understanding of hip-hop culture or confuse the heck out of you, but it's totally worth it either way; I swear I've wanted an upstairs-to-downstairs slide in my house since I was 8--see mom, it is possible; loving this brightly colored,

I was never into the whole minimalism thing, not even in the '90s when it was being touted by fashion magazines as the Most Revolutionary Thing Ever. I'll take my fashion with over-the-top Versace prints and glamazon supermodels, thankyouverymuch.But when I saw this dress hanging in the back of the closet (which I completely forgot I got at H&M, like, a month ago. How sad is that?) I had the urge
I collect a lot of (mostly visual) inspiration on my Tumblr--pictures of fashion, graphic design, art, interiors, the occasional sarcastic/intellectual quote, and various other bits and pieces I'd like to remember. I'd also like to share those things with you! Pencils can be romantic; fruity, summery art; yet another beautiful all-black spread from Italian Vogue (perhaps some day black models will be integrated into multiple! non-themed! multiracial! spreads and it
Remember that vintage mandarin jacket from the 4th Street Boutique? Yeh, I totally copped that, thanks to the generosity of fellow volunteer Susi. Not only is it chic, it's cozy as all get out and I wore it pretty much alllll weekend. With everything. Including jammies.Vintage jacket; thrifted belt and blouse; BDG jeans; Sigerson Morrison boots; old purse from street vendorI also made a point to get out from in front of my computer (which
