Sadness knows no name

You know, I see the fashion world, the pinup scene and I realize that it can me a tough industry to deal with. The stresses, the cattiness, the ugly side of people, privacy boundaries being stepped on, the public expecting perfection, all the pressures of life and loss.

I wanted to write an article on how these stresses can impact a person. Some very talented and amazing people could have been saved. Marilyn Monroe, one of the most well known pinups suffered from bipolar disorder,… Continue

Some of the best clothes come from second hand stores. Don't get me wrong, new clothes are always great, but you can find some really awesome stuff! I found this hand knitted sweater jacket at the thrift store that was made in Equador. I kinda found it interesting a sweater was made in that specific country because it's always so warm there!
