Many years ago, I loved watching America’s Next Top Model. It was one of the “reality” shows that I loved to catch. Perhaps in part because I love photography and I love mixing up styles. What I really loved about the show was the smizing aspect. What is […]
Growing up I never liked makeup. I didn’t put makeup on my dolls. Well, I did on a giant doll named delilah. And that was more scary than anything else. Other than that, I just didn’t care to doll myself up. Slowly that changed. The last five years, […]
I love dresses. I love wearing dresses with swing and flair. I like dancing in dresses. I like walking in dresses. You get the point. I like dresses. It takes a lot for me to wear pants to work I just do not readily do it. I rather […]
